Chapter 100: Chapter 100 The Boss is Coming Out of Retirement (Looking for Recommendations)_1
At first, Ding Yue thought that the New Year’s Eve Gala put on by the school would be just for show.
But after hearing what Xiong Yang said, it felt like there was a lot of preparation put into the performances?
"Principal Ding, our program schedule can run from about 8:30 PM to after 11 PM, and then there will be a fireworks show and a drone show at the countdown to midnight..."
Xiong Yang discussed the arrangements for the New Year’s Eve Gala with Principal Ding.
"Not bad, not bad."
Ding Yue was quite satisfied with the New Year’s Eve Gala organized by Director Xiong of the Department of Literature and Sports.
"Oh, by the way, Director Xiong, will we record the New Year’s Eve Gala this time?" Ding Yue suddenly thought of this and asked Xiong Yang.
"Definitely, the teachers from the Film and Television Department have formed a special production team to film our New Year’s Eve Gala."
Xiong Yang quickly nodded.
It was indeed most appropriate to leave this task to the teachers and students of the Film and Television Department.
Recording the school’s first New Year’s Eve Gala could serve as excellent footage for creating promotional or documentary films once Mist City Arts and Science University grows in the future.
"That’s quite right, we need to keep the recorded video safe." Ding Yue instructed.
"Yes, indeed. We will take good care of the videos and photos of all school activities."
At this moment, Ding Yue’s attention was drawn to a group of students and teachers not far away.
They had brought many drones, and by looking at the brand, he could tell they were made by the domestic company, DJI.
There were a total of 101 drones, all leased from the DJI Group.
After all, renting was certainly much cheaper than buying more than one hundred drones, which would cost quite a lot.
The teachers and students in charge of the drones were all from the Department of Drone Application Technology at the university.
In response to the New Year’s Eve Gala, they had prepared a grand drone performance.
"Total of 101 drones, students, let’s conduct our third test according to our flight plan."
A thirty-something teacher was directing the students from the Drone Application Technology Department, preparing for the next rehearsal of the drone show.
"Principal Ding, we’ve already lost three drones in previous rehearsals for this performance."
Seeing Principal Ding observing the teachers and students from the department, Xiong Yang approached and explained.
"As long as we can put on a good drone show, it’s normal for some to get damaged during rehearsals."
Ding Yue was quite familiar with drones.
He had watched many videos of drone failures, and it was normal for a few units to be damaged during rehearsals.
After touring the sports field, Ding Yue became hungry and called his mother to prepare dinner for him at the second canteen.
Three days later.
Which was December 31st.
On the last day of 2020, from the afternoon onwards, many students came to the sports stadium in succession.
Xiong Yang, the Director of the Department of Literature and Sports, brought the department members and some student union members to the venue to get busy, as he was in charge of the New Year’s Eve Gala.
In a milk tea shop next to the second canteen not far from the stadium.
Ding Yue was leisurely sipping a cup of pearl milk tea, accompanied by his secretary Wen Ruohan, his buddy Xu Bin, and campus belle Lin Zhirou.
"I’ll go and prepare first."
Lin Zhirou glanced at the time. As the most anticipated performer of the night, she had to prepare in advance.
"Zhirou, I’ll go with you."
Wen Ruohan excitedly grabbed Lin Zhirou’s hand and they went to the stadium together.
After a while, Huang Youjie also arrived at the milk tea shop.
"Huh? I thought Lin was here?" Huang Youjie looked around.
He found only Ding Yue and Xu Bin sitting inside the milk tea shop.
"She’s gone to prepare." After Xu Bin finished speaking, he looked at Huang Youjie: "Old Huang, I heard that you really prepared a performance?"
"What?"
Ding Yue was a bit stunned upon hearing this.
Is Huang Youjie going to show off again?
"I have asked my secretary to take the costume and all to the site, now I must go and dress up!" When Huang Youjie finished, he turned around and left.
A good opportunity like the New Year’s Eve Gala, how could Huang Youjie, a "man of many talents", not show off?
"What performance did Old Huang prepare?"
Ding Yue asked curiously.
The boss is about to make a move!
If Ding Yue remembered correctly, Old Huang had painfully sold his little skirts and the like to raise money for the fake university at the beginning.
But for the New Year’s Eve Gala, he had declared a performance, which Ding Yue had not expected.
"I’ve heard he’s doing a dance to ’Elysium’?" Xu Bin replied.
Hisss!
Upon hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
To be honest, Huang Youjie had gained quite a lot of fame at Mist City Arts and Science University after the campus belle competition event. There was nothing wrong with him providing some fun at the New Year’s Eve Gala.
Eight o’clock in the evening.
There was a dense crowd of students in the sports stadium, about three to five thousand of them.
The school had already announced the New Year’s Eve Gala performance tonight in advance. The students came to watch of their own volition.
Since tonight is New Year’s Eve, some students went to celebrate with their boyfriends or girlfriends, while others came to watch the school performance.
Admit it.
The reality was they were just single!
"Hello everyone, I’m currently at the stadium. Our Mist City Arts and Sciences University New Year’s Eve Gala performance of 2020-2021 will begin shortly."
"That’s right, Lin Zhirou from our school’s Art Department will perform ’Blue and White Porcelain’ at the gala."
"Everyone, remember to follow, thank you~"
A well-dressed girl was live streaming on her cell phone. She was a student of Mist City Arts and Science University specializing in new media.
She was currently live broadcasting on TikTok, and she was going to live broadcast the gala’s performances to her followers.
As the gala was about to begin, Ding Yue and Xu Bin also arrived at the venue.
"Good evening, Principal Ding."
"Principal Ding."
"Principal Ding, you look good today."
"Will Principal Ding watch the performance with us tonight?"
As soon as Ding Yue appeared in front of the students, he was warmly greeted.
"Yes, I’ll be watching the gala with you all tonight." Ding Yue nodded and responded to a student’s question.
The students at the front immediately got excited and began applauding.
The students sitting in the back didn’t know what was going on. After all, with thousands of students sitting on the ground, they could only see what was happening on stage when they looked up.
Initially, Director Xiong Yang planned to host the New Year’s Eve Gala in the school’s auditorium.
But, considering the excellent weather these days, warmer with almost zero chance of rain,
he decided to host the New Year’s Eve Gala at the sports stadium instead.
It would be a larger venue.
