Chapter 482: Representative of the Old Students
After a few days of being tired of being with Han Li, Qi Ran finally wanted to go back to school and enjoy the last course of her senior year. Although the senior year is basically spent in internships, recruitment, and preparation for graduation thesis, there are still courses in the first half of the senior year.
It's just that these courses tend to end almost before eleven.
No way, as more and more graduates are welcomed, the pressure of employment is increasing. Therefore, the school can only change its strategy and enlarge the four students as soon as possible to go out to find a job, or to do an internship.
In fact, the military training of freshmen here has not yet ended, and some companies have come to the school for tour recruitment.
Because Qi Ran is going to study abroad, she naturally has no employment pressure. Even if she doesn't go out to study and graduate school, it's okay, she can go back and help in her mother's company.
So looking at those students who were full of hope and waiting in line for the interview, Qi Ran didn't feel anything. On the contrary, the dormitory roommates talked about the company all day long, and the news that the company was going to recruit on campus made her a little irritable.
Although Han Li persuaded her to move out again, Qi Ran did not agree this time. In her words, I can't stay at school for a few days, so let's stay and enjoy more time in this university dormitory.
And Han Li is now a little confused, not knowing what to do.
Before, he felt that his life was quite fulfilling, and the school, company, and family were three heads around. Now that the company is stable, he doesn't need to worry about it, and the school doesn't have to go to class.
The rest can only be written at home, but the manuscript is sufficient at present, and he does not need to be in a hurry. So he had nothing to do, and he became idle.
But after a few days, he began to get busy again.
First of all, the military training is coming to an end, and the welcome party is about to begin. As the representative of this year's old students, Han Li will come to the stage to give a speech.
Although this is a relatively glorious thing in the eyes of others, for Han Li, he can only smile bitterly. If it weren't for the school's request, he wouldn't have come on stage to make this show.
For this speech on stage, Qi Ran dressed up Han Li carefully. But in the end, Han Li still chose a more casual dress.
He is now a student and is speaking as a senior. So you don't have to dress up so formal or business, as long as you are neat and generous.
Although he only went up to give a speech, he still went to a dress rehearsal according to the requirements of the director team of the party. In fact, it is to familiarize yourself with the venue and process to prevent mistakes when you give a speech at the party.
The party started at seven o'clock, and Han Li came to prepare for the backstage at six o'clock, which was the request of the director team.
According to the process, the party began, first by the school leader to make a speech, followed by a speech by the freshman representative, and then it was his turn to be the old student representative.
Although he is at the bottom of the line, if all goes well, he will be his turn soon. The premise is that the first two, that is, the school leaders and the freshman representatives, do not have any tirade.
After cleaning up, Han Li, Qi Ran, Xie Bin and Zhang Yiyang began to wait patiently. Originally, he was supposed to come alone, but considering the fact that he was surrounded by students before, Qi Ran, who was not at ease this time, specially asked him to call Xie Bin and Zhang Yiyang, just in case.
Although Han Li felt that this move was a bit exciting, he agreed to it when he thought of what happened before.
Of course, only they know how to prepare. Others don't know, and Han Li said that they were his friends, just waiting for him.
Xie Bin and Zhang Yiyang, who are already in their third year, naturally do not need to participate in this welcome party. This is also one of the important benefits of their third year of college, and some school activities are not mandatory for them to participate.
Of course, there are still some juniors and seniors who come to join in the fun, but only a very small number, and the freshmen and sophomores in the entire auditorium are the main force.
With a burst of cheers outside, the welcome song sounded, and the school leaders began to take their seats one after another, and the party began.
First of all, the school leader spoke, the president of the University of Science and Technology, surnamed Qiao, is relatively old and is about to retire. Although he has gray hair, he is still very energetic. The short and funny speech on the stage drew bursts of laughter from the freshmen and old students below.
Next is the freshman representative, a boy, with a good image and temperament. It's just that this speech skill is a little poor, and on stage I am basically reading according to the script. Although his generous speech was very imposing, it made the students below mediocre and uninterested.
In a sparse round of applause, the boy returned backstage with a smile on his face. It seems that he is satisfied with the performance he just had.
"Next, we have invited the representative of the old students of HKUST, Han Li, who is also from the 09 digital art design major of the School of Arts, to speak on behalf of the old students."
Although the host didn't introduce much, the students here below have more or less learned about the boiling University of Science and Technology student Han Li.
So many people came to be interested, and even the applause was no less enthusiastic than before.
Han Li walked onto the stage with the speech in his hand and stood behind the podium. Several spotlights hit him, making it almost impossible for him to see what was going on offstage.
After adjusting the microphone stand and spreading out the speech, Han Li smiled at the audience and said, "Leaders, teachers, students, hello everyone! It is a great honour for me to stand here at this moment and to speak on behalf of all the old students.
First of all, on behalf of the sophomores, juniors, and seniors, please allow me to welcome all the freshmen of the Class of 2011 of HKUST!
Your presence has added vitality to our University of Science and Technology, as well as a new landscape. Of course, it also shared some of the pressure for our old students. ”
Pressure? Although Han Li couldn't see the situation in the audience clearly, from the sound of discussion in an instant, he could still feel the doubts in the hearts of the freshmen.
Han Li nodded with a smile when he heard this: "That's right, it's pressure." As a freshman at HKUST, you still have a long way to go to study and live on this campus. In addition to school and life, you will also be exposed to the rich and diverse activities of our HKUST.
Here, I would like to suggest to you that as a freshman, if you want to quickly integrate into university life, make friends quickly and expand your circle of friends, then you should participate in more campus activities. No matter what kind of activities you participate in, this is conducive to exercising your own abilities and cultivating your own sentiments.
As your seniors, we used to be the main force in these enrichment activities. But as our studies become more and more heavy, we gradually lose our attention to these things.
So, we need you to step up and take some of the pressure out of these activities. ”
