Chapter 112 Before the School Anniversary
In the large conference hall, Jiang Lai was standing at the front, holding a remote control in her hand. The projector was on, and the PowerPoint slides were turning a page with the movement of her hand.
"Now, I and several other ministers will introduce the specific arrangements for this anniversary celebration. The theme of this anniversary celebration is to create more wonderful campus memories." She said gracefully with a faint smile on her face: "The main purpose is to unite teachers and students, enliven the campus atmosphere, and boost everyone's morale. At the same time, it will further enhance our reputation and external image."
"We have tentatively decided to designate May as the month for the school's anniversary activities. Currently, all tasks are being coordinated and carried out by our various departments. I will be reporting on the cultural and sports activities."
"Currently, our Arts and Culture Department plans to put on a special gala for the school's anniversary. We have already consulted with the labor union and the Youth League Committee, and they have expressed their support. To enrich the content of the gala, we have asked each college to put on a set of excellent performances. At the same time, various clubs on campus, such as the street dance club and the Hanfu club, have also volunteered. We will determine the list of performers after review. The Student Union has suggested that each department should also put on some performances, and we are currently in contact with the various department heads on this matter."
"At the same time, we also plan to hold a dance party on the playground. The space is large enough that students can freely choose whether or not to join."
Jiang Lai spoke for nearly half an hour about a dozen pages of PowerPoint slides, while also answering various questions from teachers and student council members. By the time she finished her presentation, more than an hour had passed.
"Okay, the Arts and Literature Department has done a very thorough job. Jiang Lai, please have a seat. Now, let the Publicity Department explain their arrangements."
"Ok!"
Jiang Lai returned to her seat, next to Wang Fu from the Literature and Art Department.
She quietly turned her head to the side: "Ah Jiang is amazing! If I hear the teacher nitpicking, my voice will tremble."
"It's not that scary, Teacher Xu is very kind."
"This is supposed to be kind! Our arts and culture department worked countless sleepless nights to come up with this plan, and she's nitpicking way too much!"
Didn't she praise us for doing such a thorough job?
"That's what she deserves to be praised!"
Jiang Lai chatted with the deputy minister for a while, and then began to listen attentively to the report from the propaganda minister.
"Our publicity department contacted the network information department and used the campus network, forums, and other media to promote our anniversary celebration activities. We also produced promotional brochures, which will be distributed to faculty and students. We've also spoken with the students in the all-media team, and starting in May, they will regularly send out information about the anniversary celebration and similar event previews on platforms such as the school newspaper and official WeChat account to attract the interest of faculty and students..."
"Our photography department is mainly responsible for taking photos and recording videos during the event. We will also hold photography competitions to collect photos and videos related to the anniversary celebration, so as to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of teachers and students to participate in the anniversary celebration."
"The school newspaper will provide detailed coverage of all the activities taking place in May, and will also be holding an essay contest..."
"Our External Relations Department has contacted several companies and groups. Since our university, Beijing Capital University, is a century-old prestigious institution with a consistently good reputation, and many of our alumni enjoy high prestige in their respective fields, securing sponsorships has been relatively easy for our department. Many companies have proactively contacted us, expressing their willingness to sponsor this anniversary celebration. We will also discuss with the responsible faculty members how to selectively accept sponsorships. At the same time, we are considering allocating some participation slots to groups, companies, and enterprises that sponsor the anniversary celebrations. We might discuss this with other departments and organize a symposium or something similar..."
The preparatory meeting for the upcoming school anniversary celebrations lasted for nearly four hours before it finally ended.
Ms. Xu, who is in charge of the student union, said a few words at the end: "The activity plans of each department are quite good, but there are still some details to be finalized. There are no major problems. I hope we can hold a school anniversary celebration that will impress everyone!"

Jiang Lai walked back to her dormitory with Hu and Zhang from the Literature and Art Department, as well as Wang Fu, who would be working with her in the future.
Minister Hu said, "You did a very good job today. Among all the ministers who have spoken, you stood out."
"Hehe! That's great!"
Today, the speakers at this meeting were all newly appointed ministers, which was a good opportunity for them to make an appearance in front of the student council and teachers.
Director Zhang laughed heartily: "Haha, with the Arts and Literature Department in your hands, Director Hu and I are completely at ease! But, Ah Jiang, this department also needs to put on a performance this time..."
"It was Chairman Sun's assistant who told me that, in addition to the various colleges, the school's organizing departments should also showcase their own style at the anniversary gala."
"Don't be nervous, I'm not blaming you." Zhang Bu said cheekily, "Look, Lao Hu and I will definitely be retiring soon, so don't include us in this!"
"???" Wang Fu exclaimed, "Damn, I thought you were going to say something, Director Zhang, but it turns out you're just trying to run away!!"
“How can this be considered running away?” Zhang argued vehemently. “We already withdrew in May! It’s normal that the show doesn’t need us, right?”
"That's cheating!"
Hu Bu laughed, "Alright, it's a piece of cake for our Arts and Literature Department to put on a show, isn't it? Everyone here is handsome and beautiful, they can walk the runway, do a fashion show, we can do it with other clubs, or we can just have a big group sing-along!"
Jiang Lai nodded: "I think it's a good idea."
"There's only a month and a half left until May, so you can start making arrangements during this time. Our department will also be reviewing programs, so we'll have less time for our own department. Therefore, let's choose something simple that everyone can participate in."
“Yes, I understand,” Jiang Lai replied. “When I get back, I’ll tell everyone about this, and then we can come up with some ideas and vote on it.”
"can."

When Jiang Lai returned to the dormitory, her roommates were still awake, and the three of them sat huddled together in a row.
“I thought you were all asleep so late,” Jiang Lai said.
"Aaaaaah!!!" x3.
"?" Jiang Lai was startled: "What are you doing?"
"Ah, it's A-Jiang! Why didn't you make a sound when you came back?" Zhao Ying cried.
"Didn't you hear anything when I opened the door? Are you all just too engrossed?"
"Isn't this a horror movie? It's so scary!" Tang Li's voice trembled slightly.
Li Xiangyue had already buried her head in Tang Li's body while hugging the doll.
"I was wondering why you weren't turning on the lights." Jiang Lai said, turning on the lights, and the dormitory room immediately became "brightly lit."
"Who turns on the lights when watching horror movies? It just doesn't feel right anymore."
"He's bad at the game but loves to play," Jiang Lai complained.
"I'm not watching anymore." Li Xiangyue stood up. "Your meeting is so late today?"
"Yes, the school anniversary celebration is quite troublesome."
"Ah! I can't wait! And I saw that this time we can vote on the souvenirs?"
"Yes, bookmarks, brooches, rings, and what else? We'll see which one gets the most votes and use it as a souvenir for this school anniversary. They were all submitted by students before."
"That's great!" Tang Li said, "I'm most looking forward to the gala! I saw your arts and culture department having such a lively discussion during your meeting!"
"It's definitely something to look forward to! The dance looks interesting! I've seen other schools' freshman dances before!"
"That's right!!!"

It's not just dorm 306 that's looking forward to the upcoming school anniversary; everyone on campus feels the same way. Eight out of ten posts on the forum are about the anniversary.
[Vote for your favorite anniversary souvenir!]
—Seriously, this brooch design is absolutely gorgeous! And it's a student submission! The design school's top students are truly amazing!
I love rings!! Simple and perfect for everyday wear.
Brooches are indeed not very practical for everyday wear, and they are also not easy to match with other items.
—But the ring is a bit too ordinary!
—They're low-key and sophisticated; the school's logo is inside the walls. You're just a country bumpkin.
—Bookmark: Is no one speaking up for me?
—Hahaha, upstairs xs, I'll vote for this bookmark! It's made of metal, and the openwork and patterns on it are very elegant and have a distinctive Imperial University feel.
[Call for submissions for the school anniversary gala!]
—Besides the required performance from each college, we also welcome students with special talents to participate! Want to shine at the gala? Want to make a splash at the gala? Want to showcase your own style? Then come on over!
—Is the upstairs room for the Literature and Art Department?
—I hope there will be more different types of programs! Not just singing and dancing.
—Does the person upstairs enjoy poetry recitation?
—Never mind what I said, I just hope for more interesting programs…
—Laughing so hard I almost choked. If we don't allow recitation performances, what are the teachers supposed to do? Hahahaha
—Who said that! Our Lao Zhang sings beautifully! (Song: "The Direction Where the Party Flag Flies")
Hahaha, Old Zhang from the School of Marxism really loves this song.
—Approved! With this song, the main theme of our gala is definitely set.
—The black text turns redder the more you look at it.
There will also be a dance for the school anniversary this year!!!
—Who understands! I think my chance to find a partner has finally arrived!
—Whatever, it's not my turn anyway.
—Yeah, the auditorium can't possibly fit everyone, can it?
—The student council is here! The Arts and Literature Department is proposing an open-air dance party! There should be huge speakers, carpets, long tables, and delicious food!
—An open-air dance party?!
—Is the kind of ball you're talking about where you dance in high heels?
—Sure! There are no restrictions. We'll play music randomly, so feel free to dance if you can, solo or in pairs, it's all fine.
—In that case, instead of a dance, how about we hold a music festival?
—I support the comment above.
—I want a dance! I want to dance hand in hand!
—Upstairs, hahaha
—The student council members should be reading the forums! They should listen to the suggestions from the students!
—Leave a message on the student union's official website!
The upcoming school anniversary celebration has garnered significant interest and attention from both teachers and students, with discussions reaching a climax in May, the anniversary month.
