Chapter 146: Ordered to drop out of school
"Does the president of the alumni association have any power in the school?"
"Theoretically, no."
Lin Yi suddenly thought of a sentence called "In principle, it is okay, which means that it is not; In principle, no, it means that it is okay", which seems to be similar to this situation.
The Chinese language is really broad and profound.
"Chen Mingzhang said that he is highly respected, and even if he has it, it should not be in the academic world, so what he really means is nothing more than a high authority."
"In fact, Taishan Group and himself have a large endowment fund in the school, and the money is not completely handed over to the school at its discretion, and he still has a great say in the operation of the fund."
"On the other hand, Taishan Group has always been a big employer of school graduates, and the surname Liu has given some convenience as an alumnus."
"There are some things that you can't say in too much detail, but the school also has to think about what the consequences might be if he is not satisfied."
"You may understand better when I say this, although we are a public university, to some extent, Liu Taishan is already the de facto director of the school."
When Taishan Group started, Lin Yi was not even born, and he can almost be regarded as the first batch of people who "got rich first".
Although the current netizens do not look down on Taishan Group, and they have long since "left Asia and entered the United States", it was also a "high-tech industry" in the early days.
At that time, it was no less popular in China than Uber in Silicon Valley today, and when it acquired the PC business from IBM, it was celebrated by the whole country, as a pride of the national brand.
I thought it was the beginning, but who thought it was the peak.
No matter what, in the IT industry, his seniority is even higher than the current famous Big Three, and Majack doesn't dare to take it in front of him.
And Liu Taishan's own influence, through long-term operation and so many years of fermentation, has long been not limited to Taishan Group and the IT industry.
In many cases, he is a banner.
If you don't consider the current situation of Wanli Travel and only look at the valuation, Lin Yi, as the largest shareholder, can actually be called a "rich man".
But in terms of how to use money to exchange influence reasonably, Lin Yi felt that he still had a lot to learn from those "old money".
If he had known in advance that there would be today's play, at least he would have a better relationship with the school.
After Lin Yi came out of Chen Mingzhang's side, he was still looking for Li Feifei, and the female professor probably understood the current situation, and asked:
"And what does he want?"
"Chen Mingzhang bluntly told me that Liu Taishan proposed that students like me who do not follow the teaching order should be ordered to withdraw from school to set an example."
"Ordered to drop out of school?"
This punishment was much stronger than they expected at the beginning, Li Feifei doubted: "The school won't be so unkind, right?" You are also a well-known alumnus that Jingdian has been promoting, so the school can't hang on its face. ”
Lin nodded and said: "I think so too, Chen Mingzhang hinted that if I want to solve this matter, it would be better to go to Liu Taishan to talk about peace in private, and if the other party loosens his mouth, the school will not dig deeper, I think this is the purpose of his great effort." ”
Li Feifei is also very clear about Lin Yi's current situation: "Liu Taishan is attacking you at this time, is it for the Shenzhou special car or for her daughter's Dudu taxi?" ”
Lin Yi guessed in his heart that it was for Liu Qing, because the news that the female president had breast cancer and went to the United States for treatment had been announced.
But the reason is not important to him.
"Whether it's for his purpose to take a special car for Shenzhou or to take a taxi for Dudu, I don't plan to see Liu Taishan."
"I will neither agree to any of his conditions, nor will I give in to his threats, and meeting is just another quarrel."
"Taishan Taishan, whether he is the sole master of Wuyue or ordered by the sky, I have no chance to appreciate the prestige of this predecessor in the rivers and lakes."
Li Feifei asked, "Then are you going to give up this degree?" ”
It would be understandable if Lin Yi didn't want this degree directly, because there are many well-known entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley who have given up their studies for entrepreneurship.
For example, Uber's Kalanick, she thought it would be a coincidence.
"No, I will continue to fight for it, but I will not exchange any interests with Liu Taishan."
"The school's affairs are solved in the school, although he Liu Taishan is very important, but Jingdian is not a place where he can cover the sky with one hand."
"If the school still orders me to quit the school, then I will have to accept the result."
In fact, whether Lin Yi can get a bachelor's degree now will have no impact on his current career and future life.
He thinks that the only obsession with this degree may be that he doesn't want his official information to show that his education is high school in the future.
Lin Yi is still a little sure in his heart, the reason why Liu Taishan is so aggressive is because he has business grievances with his thousands of miles of travel.
Schools generally don't do things out of the box.
finally "cultivated" such an entrepreneurial star, although it seems a little unsmooth now, but if you drop out of school, it will be a knife in two, and even Lin Yi can be said to be a rebel if he holds a grudge.
Why bother?
After thinking of countermeasures, of course Lin Yi would not go back to find Chen Mingzhang, even if that guy was not in cahoots with Liu Taishan, at least he would not be able to deal with himself.
Lin Yi still knows a few other school leaders, but he is not familiar with them, but he doesn't have to worry too much at this time, he will find someone to solve the problem first.
His complaint to the university focused on several areas:
The first is that although he did violate the rules, he did not attend classes in the previous semesters, and the credits were still calculated in the exams, which was negotiated with the school and was allowed;
The second is that he really failed to consider this matter, if he hurt the feelings of ordinary classmates, he is willing to accept the assessment through various ways to prove that he has met the graduation requirements.
In fact, there is a third point, but it is inconvenient to say it publicly.
Inspired by Liu Taishan's influence in the school, Lin Yi made a clear promise to the school leaders in private that in order to thank his alma mater for his cultivation, he would repay the school in the future.
In general, the school leaders who received Lin Yi were still satisfied with his statement, but they did not easily let go of their words and agreed to take care of this matter.
Their rhetoric is still the same old-fashioned, it is nothing more than a meeting to study, so that Lin Yi does not have to rush back to wait for news first.
This is not purely perfunctory, the organizational form of the school is different from that of the company, and it is true that no one can have the final say on such a major issue.
Lin Yi was mainly worried that if this matter dragged on for a long time, he gave Liu Taishan more time to give full play to his influence.
As for how far and deep this master-level character's tentacles can extend, Lin Yi doesn't want to experience it in a way that defies the law.
But as the saying goes, everything is up to the fate of God, and after all the methods he can think of have been tried, all that remains is to wait for the results to appear.
It wasn't until after doing these things that Lin Yi returned to the company and told his senior sister.
