Chapter 145 "Chen Zhuo" Finally Appears After Tong Lan reported the matter to the principal, she returned to the office, both to announce her decision and to appease Bai Xiaoyang and Luo Yubing: "This is the preliminary decision, in order to maintain the discipline of the exhibition and prevent any unhealthy and illegal behavior." "Cancel the award-winning places of He Yuanchang and Yu Xian in the Baishi Cup Art Exhibition, and let other unsuccessful students take their place." "At the same time, because of Yu Xian's irrational and impulsive behavior, he needs to write a self-review and submit it." After Tong Lan finished speaking, she looked around and asked, "Do you think this way of handling the matter is okay?" Xiao Yongzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the result. It seems that the school leaders are too embarrassed to be too obviously biased, after all, He Yuanchang was the one who made the mistake first. "A review is harmless, as for the award being cancelled, just cancel it." Xiao Yongzhi thought to himself that he had originally asked Yu Xian to participate without expecting to win any prizes. First, it is to complete the tasks in school so that there will be no class without participants; Secondly, take the opportunity to ask the more capable teachers in the school for some advice.
However, Fei Yueming suddenly said after listening: "Principal Tong, I think there is no problem with other aspects, but can we skip writing a self-criticism?" "why?" Tong Lan asked puzzledly. In fact, she and Fei Yueming were from the same school, but Tong Lan was the senior sister and Fei Yueming was the junior brother. “I know this student better.” Fei Yueming recalled Yu Xian's determined and brave expression when she barged into his office just now, so he shook his head and said, "If she felt that she was not wrong, she would not have written this self-criticism." "Professor Fei." Bai Xiaoyang said dissatisfiedly: "I know you value talent, but the student did something wrong after all. It's just writing a self-criticism, not a serious punishment." "I guess the whole school knows about this." Bai Xiaoyang pointed at the broken pieces of Sunset in the trash basket and said angrily, "If we don't punish him, what will happen if other students follow his example?" "Hey~" Fei Yueming sighed, thinking that it was because everyone in the school knew that Yu Xian had such a fierce personality that it was impossible for him to write such a review. In that case, wouldn't that be admitting that you were wrong? "Okay, stop talking." Tong Lan stopped the argument between her junior brother and Bai Xiaoyang, and said without question: "It's settled, Teacher Xiao, you will be responsible for urging Yu Xian to write this self-criticism when you go back." Xiao Yongzhi nodded. It was good enough to have such a result. After all, he was backed by Dean Xia Rucai, who could do anything in the industry... "Dingling bell~" A rapid ring rang out in the office where the atmosphere was somewhat tense. Tong Lan found out it was her phone, took it out and looked at the screen, then subconsciously straightened her chest. This reaction is like when you are lazily lying on the sofa watching TV, and suddenly you get a call from an important person, and you will subconsciously sit up straight.
"Hello, Mr. Guan." Tong Lan answered the call while glaring at her junior fellow student Fei Yueming. This seems to be asking, "Are you the one who reported it?" Fei Yueming spread his hands, as if to say, "What can I do?" "Little boy." A calm but serious voice came from the receiver. No matter whether she hears this voice in real life or on the phone, Tong Lan can instantly recall the "shadow" of strict discipline during her student days, and even forget that she is already a vice president of a university. "Teacher Guan." Tong Lan covered the receiver, guessing why the teacher was looking for her. "How was it handled?" The other party asked directly. "What do you mean?" Tong Lan was a little uncertain, but she was also a bit like a child who was playing tricks in front of adults, pretending to be confused in a self-righteous manner. "Humph~" However, the other party just snorted, as if he saw through Tong Lan's thoughts. Principal Tong could only say helplessly: "Teacher Guan, I don't want to bother you with such a small matter. I plan to handle it this way..." So Tong Lan repeated her decision and asked, "What do you think?" “I think that’s bullshit!” This is the reply from the other end of the phone. "The teacher still speaks so directly." Tong Lan curled her lips, but she felt that the words seemed very close to her, not like they were in the phone, but as if they were not far away. Tong Lan couldn't help but look up, and saw a lady in her fifties or nearly sixty, wearing a plain gray suit and with gray hair, suddenly appearing at the door of the office, holding a mobile phone. "Wow~" All the teachers in the office, regardless of their professional titles, stood up and called out, "Professor Guan, Professor Guan..." after seeing this ordinary old lady who looked like a cleaner in an art gallery. Only Tong Lan and Fei Yueming called him "Teacher Guan." Some people were quick-witted and moved a chair over to say, "Professor Guan, please sit down." The old lady seemed not to see it until Fei Yueming moved a chair over and then she sat down steadily. Tong Lan took a cup of warm water and handed it over. Although she was afraid and a little distressed, she said, "What are you doing here in such a hot day? If you have anything to say, just tell me over the phone. Can I not listen?"
The old lady took a sip of water and said calmly, "The air conditioning in the office is already very cold, and after hearing this, my heart became even colder. I might as well come out and bask in the 40-degree sun." The ground temperature in Guangzhou in summer is often over 40 degrees Celsius. If you sunbathe in this kind of weather, you will basically be silent. So everyone could hear that Professor Guan was mocking his own students. Tong Lan and Fei Yueming looked calm. Fei Yueming thought that it was the senior sister who was scolded, not me, so I would be responsible for reporting it. The teacher hated men who bullied women the most in her life, and she would not ignore it if she knew about it; Tong Lan has gotten completely used to it. Her teacher always speaks unpleasantly, and sometimes can even be described as "harsh, sarcastic, and unreasonable." However, Tong Lan also knew that the teacher was not as vicious as he said. Besides, he had been ridiculed for more than 20 years, so how could he not get used to it? "Go ahead and curse me." Tong Lan sometimes comforts herself like this: the fact that the old lady can scold people means that she is in good health, which is a good thing. "You are dissatisfied with the handling of the matter." Tong Lan saw that the teacher had finished drinking the water, and took the cup from her hand, and said very bluntly: "Then what do you think should be done?" "As a former principal, can my words still have any effect now?" The old lady glanced sideways at her student. Although this sentence was still sarcastic and mocking, it was so comedic that Tong Lan couldn't help laughing, and everyone else in the office laughed along. "Just say it." Tong Lan didn't want to argue with the teacher, because she would always be the one who suffered the loss anyway. "I think if something is right, it is right, and if it is wrong, it is wrong. How can we try to smooth things over?" This time the old lady did not ridicule Tong Lan, but said seriously: "Since the freshman girl is to be punished, then Lao Xia's student should be given a more serious warning. This is what we call true impartiality and will achieve the effect of setting the record straight." "Teacher Guan..." Tong Lan was about to say something. The old lady waved her hand, signaling Tong Lan not to speak. She continued, "I know you want to say that Lao Xia's student shoulders the hope of revitalizing Guangmei. Then let me ask you, has Guangmei closed down in all these years?" "CAFA and GAME have unique advantages due to geographical reasons, which we cannot compare with. I also understand everyone's spirit of striving for progress, but!" As the old lady raised her voice, Tong Lan and Fei Yueming stood at attention involuntarily. "There's no need to pin your hopes on a student with such questionable moral character!" The old lady's gray hair stood up under the cool air from the air conditioner, making her look energetic and resolute. She also made a new decision with great force: "Lao Xia's student was given a warning. If Lao Xia has any opinions, let him find me." "In addition, the Baishi Cup Art Exhibition will be re-competed. Except for Lao Xia's student, everyone must prepare new works. Anyone who dares to cheat again will be warned and punished." "As for that freshman girl, she behaved inappropriately in front of the teacher, well..." The old lady actually hesitated for a moment.
Tong Lan has followed her teacher for more than 20 years, and she can tell at first glance that she likes this girl named Yu Xian a little. Sure enough, the old lady thought for a moment and said, "I think this little girl is quite strong-willed. Forget about writing a self-criticism. Let her come over and apologize to the two teachers in person." "Quick, call Yu Xian." Fei Yueming immediately reminded Xiao Yongzhi. Xiao Yongzhi finally reacted and immediately called Yu Xian happily. This is what we call bad people getting their comeuppance. The instigator received a warning and Yu Xian only needed to apologize. I really didn't expect that Fei Yueming would bring Professor Guan Yongyi here. So what if Professor Xia is a master's and doctoral supervisor, and a discipline leader? Professor Guan was able to supervise doctoral students at a very early age. Principal Tong and Professor Fei were both her students. In fact, Principal Tong was personally mentored by her since his undergraduate years. In addition, Professor Guan has a family background in academics, and he is also a "Yangtze River Scholar" specially appointed by the Ministry of Education and enjoys a subsidy from the State Council. The reason why she resigned as the president of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts was that the Olympic Games in a century was being held in China for the first time. Its logo, peripherals, clothing and even the details in all the venues...all of these required the best talents from across the country to design and check. Professor Guan was selected and had no energy to handle school affairs, so he resigned as the president of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. However, with her status, the title of dean has little meaning. "Yu Xian..." Xiao Yongzhi immediately told her students about the incident and asked her to come over and apologize, and then the matter was over. But after a while, Xiao Yongzhi hung up the phone with an embarrassed look on his face. "what happened?" Fei Yueming noticed this situation. "Yu Xian said that it was okay to apologize, but it was indeed rude to Professor Bai and Professor Luo." Xiao Yongzhi sighed, "But she won't participate in the exhibition." When the old professor Guan Yongyi heard this, she frowned and said, "Has she lost confidence in the school? Does she think we will all stand on the side of fraud?" "No no……" Xiao Yongzhi quickly said, "I'll persuade you again." After saying that, Xiao Yongzhi went out to make another phone call. In the office, Tong Lan whispered to the teacher: "This student is a bit stubborn, just like you." "Ah." Guan Yongyi actually nodded: "Judging from what she has done, it seems that she is more stubborn than I was when I was young." Not long after, Xiao Yongzhi came back again, this time with a smile on her face, but this smile seemed to be both ridiculous and heartbreaking. "Yu Xian said she was willing to compete again, but she didn't plan to use her own name. She said she would use her boyfriend's name in all future competitions."
Xiao Yongzhi smiled and said, "This way everyone will know that she has a boyfriend, and there will be less trouble." Even Guan Yongyi started laughing and couldn't help saying, "Who cares about her? What's her boyfriend's name? Don't make it too ugly." "It seems to be called..." Xiao Yongzhi thought about it and said, "It seems to be called Chen Zhe." The three masters and apprentices, who were originally leisurely, changed their expressions at the same time. ······ (End of this chapter)
