Chapter 73: Zheng Yunming's Speech
The entire circular huge square was almost filled with a flow of people, and Luo Miao looked at the number of at least tens of thousands of people present.
It should be divided into grades, right?" Luo Miao guessed as she looked at the crowd of four people.
After looking at it a few times, he felt that it was impolite to fly on top of other people's heads while driving the flying disk, so Luo Miao put the flying disk into the space bracelet and walked into the freshman group.
All kinds of noisy voices sounded in his ears, and Luo Miao found that there were not only peers like him in the freshman group, but also some middle-aged men and women who accompanied him, who should be parents who accompanied their children.
"Eh, Lao Li, this and this!"
"Yo, Lao Chen, are you also accompanying your child to school?"
"Yes, our Li family finally came up with someone who can get ahead, I specially asked for leave to accompany the child today, it just so happens that I didn't have the fate to see what the magic academy looks like before?"
"Hehe, that's right, so do I. Hey, I heard that your little wood has awakened the thunder system, which makes my two little rabbit cubs envious in my heart!"
"Yes, you still put on a face, don't you, your family Xiao Jin and Xiao Jing have the ability to enter the magic academy on this day, you are content, how long has it been in our family to have a child like Xiao Mu. ”
"Who isn't. ”
Conversations like this resounded in Luo Miao's ears, and there were also some teenagers of the same age as Luo Miao who were happily talking with their friends and didn't know what they were talking about.
But these have nothing to do with Luo Miao, after entering the crowd, Luo Miao has been wandering between the gaps in the crowd gathered in twos and threes, so as not to let himself be stunned there by a person who has no friends, and from the look just now, Luo Miao also found that there is a presiding platform in the center of the square, and he wants to see what the situation is there.
"Sorry sorry, excuse me, please let me. After shouting several times, looking at the still indifferent group of people in front of him, Luo Miao sighed.
He was already very close to the center of the square, but it was precisely because of this that the front was already surrounded by water, and he didn't want to squeeze through it, and he might not be able to squeeze through, so he simply stayed here.
The position of the station was relatively high, and the people in front of him were not high, so he could see part of the situation in the center of the square.
Central...... Luo Miao couldn't judge clearly, because this host was a little different, there was a circular fountain at the bottom, several or a dozen springs were spewing clear spring water outward, and in the center was a tall white stone pillar, supporting a round platform more than ten meters long.
The reason why Luo Miao judged that this round platform was the presiding platform was because there were a few people standing on it who seemed to be the leaders of the academy, oh no, it didn't mean standing, to be precise, sitting, huh...... Sit on a few Nordic-style backrest chairs, to be exact.
In front of them seemed to be a patchwork round table, covered with the most common red cloth in the ceremony, and several college leaders were neatly distributed in front of the round table, facing the students gathered in all directions.
There seems to be a microphone in front of them, as for whether it is or not, Luo Miao doesn't know very well, he hasn't used this kind of thing yet, but he guesses that it should be, otherwise wait for the college leader above to speak in a deep voice.
The head of a person shaking in front of him slightly blocked Luo Miao's vision, he turned sideways but his vision was blocked by others, while staring at the top of the round platform, Luo Miao turned his head sideways and moved his steps to the side slightly.
Just like the scenes that often happen in TV dramas, Luo Miao bumped into someone else's head.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Luo Miao apologized with her hands clasped in front of her.
"It's fine. The man who was hit on the head by Luo Miao said softly, he didn't care about this kind of trivial matter, and looked back at the round platform again.
Seeing that people didn't care, Luo Miao distanced himself from this person a little so as not to run into him again, and turned his gaze back to the round platform.
Several academy leaders sat steadily on the round platform, and began to speak as soon as the preparation time came, but there was one exception, there was a chair that had been empty since Luo Miao noticed it.
But after a while, a person Luo Miao was very familiar with appeared on the round platform - Mu Sa.
Mu Sa flew to the round platform with the flying wheel, and sat on the only vacant chair between two or three steps.
"Captain Mu, oh no, now I should be called Vice Dean Mu, I thought this chair was destined to be empty, I didn't expect you to really come to the opening ceremony, there are definitely special circumstances this year, you have repeatedly refused this kind of activity in previous years, let alone take the initiative to participate. A middle-aged man next to him, who was a little fat and seemed to have some residual stubble on his face even if it had been carefully repaired, joked to Mu Sa, who had just sat down.
Mu Sa picked up the teacup in front of him, tasted it, and said: "There are some special circumstances, but it is not the main reason, I just happened to participate in this year at this time of year, and the quality of this tea is too poor." ”
Another person immediately laughed, "That's it for the hospitality tea in the academy, what kind of famous tea can you expect to get you?" If you want me to say, if you think that these teas taste bad, it's a big deal to make a pot from your own house, we don't pay as much attention to the tea ceremony as you, just quench your thirst." ”
"Then it's better to give each person a bottle of mineral water, which will quench your thirst. Mu Sa talked about it, and it was a little complaining.
"Isn't this meant to be a platoon, if you do, maybe there will be a piece of news tomorrow - 'Chongyun Magic Academy is suspected of having a shortage of funds, and a platoon of school leaders are actually drinking mineral water together, is there a deeper problem behind this?'" The man said humorously.
"Ahem!" Zheng Yunming, the dean sitting in the center, coughed twice, "Don't chat, it's about time, let's start giving a speech when it's time to arrive." ”
Hearing Zheng Yunming's words, several people put away their words and sat precariously facing the students below.
Zheng Yunming turned on the switch of the microphone in front of him, tried the volume, and said in a deliberately calm tone: "The time has come, please be quiet for the students of all grades, including the new students who have just entered the school today, and the parents who accompany you to enter a little, I am not very proficient in this speech, there is too much noise that may affect my thinking, please understand." ”
From the moment they heard the microphone tapping, the seniors, except for the freshmen, had stopped talking and remained quiet.
After hearing Zheng Yunming's words, the new students who had not undergone the obedience management were also deliberately keeping quiet, trying not to make more noise, and the parents who accompanied them were the same, they knew that it was the leaders of this kind of magic academy sitting on the round platform, and they were willing to obey the instructions in the face of such a big person.
However, after listening to Zheng Yunming's words, the scene was a little restless.
On the part of the senior students......
"Huh, why is the dean presiding over the opening ceremony this year? I remember that I've been here for two years, and the dean doesn't seem to have made a few speeches, right?"
"Who's to say it's not? The dean has never paid much attention to this kind of scene, and there are only a few times in my memory of speeches. ”
"Poof, I want to laugh a little when I hear the dean's words, the dean is really a little bit, how can anyone say in front of so many people that he is not proficient in speaking in this regard. ”
"The dean's personality is like this, and he says it plainly. Eh, wait, I think I see the head of the wood department. ”
"Where?" Hearing this, someone immediately stretched out his head to look.
"Hey, it's true, I remember that the seniors of the fourth year said that the head of the wood department has never appeared in any of the college's open-faced activities, and this year has really set a precedent!"
Looking at the students below, when the scene was already quiet, Zheng Yunming spoke again: "This year is 3169 AD, September 1st, as in previous years, this year we once again ushered in a group of immature new students, with the yearning for magic, with the expectations of your relatives and elders, you have successfully entered the magic academy that you have been looking forward to for a long time, here, on behalf of all the teachers and students of Chongyun Magic Academy, I send blessings to these young and energetic new students!"
As soon as the words ended, the scene rang out with long-lasting applause in response.
When the scene fell silent again, Zheng Yunming said in a deep voice: "I know that there are many people in society, including the elders in your family, who have always told you to enter the gate of the magic academy, and you have not lived up to their expectations.
I don't know how much you know about life in the Academy of Magic, but I can tell you responsibly that it's definitely not the kind of situation you imagine that you can show off in front of other ordinary people after you learn a few tricks inside!
In the Academy of Magic, you are faced with competing with other peers, not playing cool, and many people yearn for mages who are only envious of their great power that they do not have, and envy them for being admired by the world, but you do not know the bitterness behind them.
Here, I will not only talk about the new students, but also the senior students, as well as the parents who accompany them.
The so-called mage does not represent superiority, but the shoulders are supported and the head is on the top - responsibility!
You can enjoy the benefits that society brings to you, which you deserve, but it does not mean that you can not fulfill your responsibilities.
I'm sorry to tell you about such serious things as soon as we meet, but I don't want any of my students to enter here with a playful mentality, and I hope you can understand a little bit that the responsibility of a mage is not child's play, and it is not for you to show off to others with this glorious status!"
