Boss Lu: A reborn life is destined to be without regrets!-Chapter 56 - 51. Recruitment

Mr. Lu had just mentioned numbers that were somewhat conservative.

That year was precisely when delivery platforms like Ele.me and Meituan began to emerge.

He, who had a deep understanding of the power of the internet, launched a delivery service at his restaurant the moment he predicted a surge in orders due to new traffic.

Including deliveries, his daily turnover was well over ten thousand a day!

By this calculation, subtracting labor, rent, machinery, and miscellaneous expenses, he would likely break even by the end of September.

From October on, he would just be sitting back and collecting pure profit.

This was the result of leveraging various advantages and using internet traffic to amplify the power of the internet.

As for the stocks rolling over in his account, they had grown from one million to 2.85 million during this period.

With an average daily increase of about 10%, it was a conservative investment but right in the wheelhouse.

This sum of money was more than enough for Mr. Lu to start operating his next project.

...

...

"Teacher, you wanted to see me?"

In the counselor’s office, Lu Jincheng politely greeted her.

"Right, have a seat."

Guo Minjie pointed to the seat next to her.

On this torrential rainy day, she had deliberately worn a relatively fitted beige chiffon blouse that accentuated her curves when seated, and the roundness of her cheeks gave her a youthful appearance, brimming with collagen like a young girl. Had she not been wearing the mature half-frame glasses, even those who knew her might not believe she was already married.

Gray hair adorned with flowers invites no ridicule; time never erodes beauty.

Moreover, she was not yet thirty this year, an age where every gesture is filled with grace.

"Xiao Lu, here’s the program registration form."

She handed over a sheet of paper: "The school is going to organize a welcome party soon. See if anyone from your class wants to sign up, and remember to coordinate and submit it when you go back."

"Okay."

Lu Jincheng nodded.

"Also, I want to remind you, the Student Union recruitment is this afternoon, and the Management College student committee has recommended you."

"Thank you, teacher. I will be there on time."

Lu Jincheng smiled and nodded at Guo Minjie.

Although Mr. Lu was not very keen on the Student Union, especially ignoring Deng Yuan from the external relations department, he still needed to give some face to the college leaders and counselors.

"There’s nothing else, you can go now."

"Goodbye, teacher."

Before leaving, Lu Jincheng did not forget to take a quick look at Guo Minjie’s complexion.

Hmm...

Not as rosy and radiant as he had imagined, her unmade-up skin lacked the lustrous glow of moisturization, and Mr. Lu instantly sensed something amiss.

"It seems that the medicine didn’t have much of an effect, huh?"

He muttered to himself, shaking his head as he walked out of the Management College building.

"Damn, self-medicating really doesn’t cut it. For men, we still have to rely on ourselves."

...

...

At the University Student Activity Center, the Student Union interview site.

"Next, please."

Chairman He Ying sat in front of the presiding table, watching as one after another junior brother and sister came forward to introduce themselves, expressionless.

She was dressed in a fitted business suit and skirt, with dark high heels, black stockings disappearing at the hem of her skirt, and her neck and above made up with a professional light touch of makeup, exuding a full presence.

At Nanhu University, the chairman of the Student Union is always elected at the end of junior year, serving for one year during senior year.

Although she appeared to be the lofty and respected chairman of the Student Union and received respect wherever she went, in reality, her heart was already filled with anxiety.

Most of those who are elected as the university Student Union chairman take the route of additional comprehensive scores for postgraduate recommendation.

That’s why they can devote themselves to the Student Union without distraction during their senior year, without having to worry about the burden of the future.

But...

He Ying’s comprehensive score was indeed sufficient, but the journalism department where she belonged had very limited postgraduate recommendation spots. Aside from the fair and open academic ranking, there was only one left.

And the daughter of a certain leader also wanted it.

In the end, He Ying, who had initially intended to resign, was forced to bite off a series of big promises:

"Xiao He, work hard—the Student Union President is highly sought after within the system!"

"People will think highly of you when they see ’Student Union President’ on your resume!"

"Don’t worry, with your comprehensive abilities, you won’t fall short in anything!"

He Ying could only sigh and take up this hot potato.

Her family wasn’t well-off, coming from a remote suburban area in the mountains with a younger brother still in elementary school. It was not easy to think about graduating without returning to her hometown and taking root in Jiang City.

She didn’t want to take a wrong step in any part of this quest.

"Chairman, Vice-chairmen, hello."

Downstairs, a tall and large male student walked to the center. Unlike the others who wore formal attire and ties for the interview, he, paradoxically, commanded a presence that made one instinctively sit up straight.

"I am a freshman from the Management College at Nanhu University, Lu Jincheng. I am here today to interview for the Publicity Department of the Nanhu University Student Union..."

He Ying instinctively looked up upon hearing a familiar name.

The committee from the Youth League was sitting nearby and nodded at her.

A teacher had given her a heads up beforehand—take care of this one.

She sized up Lu Jincheng; he was good-looking and seemed to have an outgoing personality.

But what did that matter?

What she hated most was nepotism, where connections got people what should have been hers, like the guaranteed spot for postgraduate recommendation that was easily snatched away by someone with connections.

Since her freshman year, she had joined the college Student Union, running errands and taking strides step by step.

Three years of diligent work, what had she gotten in return?

Nothing but the title of Student Union President. She hadn’t enjoyed any of the supposed benefits.

"Recommended for approval."

The Vice-president next to her stated.

"Approved."

Another Vice-president also nodded in agreement.

He Ying sighed inwardly and followed suit with a nod, signaling approval.

Like before, it seemed she couldn’t change anything.

"Now, please, Chairman He, give the closing speech!"

The new Student Union executive team had been decided in her junior year, with He Ying elected by unanimous vote—she had no rivals in popularity at Nanhu University.

Everyone liked her stable and hardworking demeanor, including the teachers.

"Good afternoon, everyone!"

He Ying stood up and skillfully addressed the juniors and sophomores below.

"Today is an important day for recruitment and induction of new members for the 67th Nanhu University Student Union, from the initial screening yesterday to today’s interviews, I have seen many youthful, sunny, enthusiastic, upward-striving juniors and sophomores..."

"...That’s all for today. If you have any questions, feel free to visit office 305 in the activity center for a consultation."

After finishing the procedural speech, He Ying returned to her independent office as the Student Union President.

If there was any benefit to being the Student Union President, it was probably this spacious office, equipped with an air conditioner, designated specially for her.

She held in her hand a list of names, the personal details of the new members.

When she flipped to Lu Jincheng’s information, she couldn’t help but chuckle.

As a freshman, she had to start from the college Student Union, running floors, doing odd jobs, what else was it?

Some people just got swept into the university Student Union with a simple call.

Sometimes, this world was pretty unfair.

"Knock, knock, knock."

The door sounded.

Before her stood a familiar face that seemed to have just appeared.

"Sister, I’m Lu Jincheng. I’d like to consult you about something."

The boy with the pleasant smile walked into the office and politely greeted her.

Eh...

Just be polite, and they really come knocking on your door?

"What’s up?"

"Sister, I saw on the official WeChat account that you’re a journalism major, right?"

"I have a workshop. Are you interested in joining?"
