Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The labels of top student and school belle were extremely eye-catching. When these labels were attached to a person, the effect wasn’t as simply additive, but multiplicative, not to mention that Yun Xiangxiang was a public figure now.
Even if she only had one work released, her work had a good reputation and the results were good.
She already received a newcomer’s award which had a high amount of value attached to it. Her second work hadn’t even been published yet, but she already won a big award. It could be said that her popularity and influence was higher than many people who had been in these circles for several years already.
She was also cooperating with a famous director for her third film. Now, the media that covered her news wasn’t just in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong as well.
In addition to that, five famous universities were competing to have her, which created an unprecedented climax. The name Yun Xiangxiang was suddenly made famous.
The scene of sudden fame was very clear, yet it attracted the attention of many fans and non fans as well. Many people had the mentality of spectating as they wondered who would Yun Xiangxiang would end up with in the end.
Some people even posted data to analyse Yun Xiangxiang’s choices. The more this went on, the more her popularity grew.
As the events expanded, Yun Xiangxiang’s weibo was quickly captured by the top students from several universities.
The top students from Imperial University and Qingdao University were especially happy, both sides were kindly calling Yun Xiangxiang junior sister.
[Junior sister, come to Qingdao University, we need a goddess!]
[Junior sister, look at me. Imperial University is the most suitable for a goddess like you]
[Junior sister, Qingdao University, Qingdao University, Qingdao University. Important things must be repeated thrice.]
[Junior sister, its Imperial University, you can’t miss Imperial University!]
[Pretty girl, I just ask that you update us on your future path before filling in your aspiration, I’m still waiting online…]
The top students at Qingdao University praised Qingdao University like a flower, while the top students at Imperial University praised Imperial University like there was nothing better in the world.
Perhaps at the beginning many students disdained the participation of these topics. But once someone couldn’t hold themselves back and treated it as if it was shameful to lose, more and more students joined in.
The attack power of these geniuses was simply staggering. The words and expressions they used were civilised with not even one vulgar word, but the smell of the gunpowder reached beyond the limits.
It was rare to see a competition between so many high-leveled students from various famous universities. It was more exciting than a debate competition and again attracted a crowd of spectators. The popular search for Yun Xiangxiang lasted for three days.
At this time, she had entered the crew of “Justice and Selflessness”. She declined all interview requests from the news media in order to participate in the filming.
She handed the problem over to her father. Seeing how this trouble was ongoing would cause resentment, Yun Zhibin had an idea after meeting with several admission officers of various famous universities.
“Xiangxiang, you really don’t have your own thoughts on this?” Yun Zhibin still hoped for his daughter to make her own decision. He supported her no matter what major she chose.
“Dad, I’m not familiar with any majors. I also don’t plan on taking the related industries. I still want to follow my own path.” Yun Xiangxiang was firm.
Giving up on film related universities, she faced other majors just like other freshly graduated students. She was completely clueless as to what kind of major she should take.
“Then dad will give you an analysis.” Yun Zhibin didn’t subjectively influence his daughter, “If you want to embark on this industry, the advice that I can give you is to study a major in literature. Dad has never been an actor, but I feel like an actor with profound literary skills would be able to see through all kinds of roles. Otherwise, dad thinks that you could study a language major.”
Yun Xiangxiang understood that Yun Zhibin suggested that she choose Imperial University. But to be honest, Yun Xiangxiang personally thought that literature was a spiritual major.
If you had a good understanding, you can simply see through a role by vastly reading. If you had a bad understanding, even if you studied in this kind of university, you would only learn from the teacher’s conclusion. It would be very hard to have a breakthrough with your own state of mind.
“Dad, I remember your dream was Qingdao University.” After Yun Xiangxiang considered seriously, “Dad, compared to comfort and having things step by step, I prefer challenges more.”
Ever since she filmed “University dream”, Yun Xiangxiang seemed to open a door to a new world.
At her age, she prefered breakthroughs instead of striving for stability. Her mentality finally shifted from thirty years old in her past life to how it should be now as a teen.
“You mean to say that you want to enroll into Qingdao University, what major would you pick?” Yun Zhibin was rather surprised.
“The most popular major.” In fact, Yun Xiangxiang wanted to discuss this with Yun Zhibin when she returned, but the turn of events left her with no time to catch her breath. She could only hide away.
She also wanted to listen to Yun Zhibin’s suggestion, but Yun Zhibin was worried about her in his heart. So he wanted to let her pick a more relaxed literary major, “Computer.”
“Xiangxiang, this isn’t a joke.” Yun Zhibin couldn’t help but raise his voice, “The computer major is a major that requires vast knowledge. If you wish to keep up with your studies and graduate successfully, it will conflict with your filming. It isn’t like the twelfth grade, you can’t just focusing on practicing test papers.”
The fact was that if Yun Xiangxiang did not study well in her tenth and eleventh grade, even if she studied as many test papers during her twelfth grade, it would be impossible.
According to Yun Xiangxiang’s conditions, the computer major from Qingdao University might not even compromise. There were many students who make every effort they can to enroll. The annual enrollment had a limited quota. If Yun Xiangxiang occupied a seat, they would have to find the next student with decent grades.
“Dad, I’m not playing around, I’m serious. I will try to arrange my filming time during the summer and winter vacations for the first two years. When filming, I can also ask someone to accompany and tutor me. I will never let myself fall behind with my school progress.” Yun Xiangxiang promised.
After a moment of silence, Yun Zhibin was willing to trust his daughter once. In fact, he was also very optimistic about this profession. If it was Yun Lin, he might force him to make this choice, “Okay, dad will contact Qingdao University and discuss with them.”
At this time all the national results was released, Yun Xiangxiang was definitely the national champion.
For this well-deserved first place, even Qingdao University had given the greatest sincerity, and accepted Yun Xiangxiang to take leaves for filming during the semester. But she must be present for her semester examinations, and there must be no re-examination.
That was to ensure that her major results must be a one-off, and her performance was in the top ten of the department. Of course, as the national champion, they would still provide all the benefits. As long as Yun Xiangxiang could guarantee to maintain her major results, they could let the genius Yun Xiangxiang to have everything in her convenience.
With that, it could silence other students. As long as they can guarantee that they would not leave the school to take up the exams, and their scores were in the top ten of the department, they could also enjoy such preferential treatment.
In fact just based on the name that Yun Xiangxiang was the national champion, there would be few unconvinced. After all, it was a once a year rarity.
