I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 465 - 329: With No Tigers in the Mountains, the Monkey Becomes King_3
He had taken two months off last semester due to family matters and had only heard of Shen Yuan’s name, but he didn’t know what he looked like.
"Yeah!"
"Shit, now I’m screwed."
The frustrated student council officer swung his hand and, composing himself, trotted over with an apologetic smile, "I’m sorry, Shen senior, I didn’t recognize you just now. Please come inside, your seat is in the first row on the stage."
"Okay, no problem."
Shen Yuan waved casually and walked straight up.
There were actually quite a few people on the stage, packed into three rows. The third row was composed of counselors, teacher representatives, and the student council president, while the second row was for junior leaders, like Lui Zhaojiang and Kong Zongping from the School Youth League Committee.
As for the first row, it was reserved for high-ranking leaders like vice-chancellors and the chancellor, with Yang Hongwei and Xu Shoutai both sitting in the first row.
Shen Yuan had thought he would be placed in the second or third row as a representative of senior students but was directly ushered to the first row, indicating that his identity as a shareholder with Mu Medical had been revealed.

Teacher Lih sat in the third row, and while everyone else’s attention was on the new students below the stage, Shen Yuan sent her a teasing glance.
Teacher Lih, shy especially in public, blushed and avoided Shen Yuan’s gaze.
After teasing Lih Xiao, Shen Yuan walked nonchalantly to his seat in the first row. Almost all the school leaders were present, and no one dared to blame him even though he was late.
His seat was next to Xu Shoutai, who smiled and shook hands with Shen Yuan.
Old Xu had been responsible for the startup base previously, and they had cooperated well initially. However, due to discrepancies regarding the physical examination project later on, Old Xu had become somewhat displeased as he had missed out on a significant profit.
But he still had to show friendliness on the surface, especially since Shen Yuan was also a shareholder with Mu.
The International campus had nursing programs, and if a future collaboration could be achieved, their admission brochure could boast another significant highlight.
Chancellor Old Yang also waved to Shen Yuan, who had not yet graduated when Old Yang introduced him to the internal alum network and to the district mayor Hua Zhongkui, expanding Shen Yuan’s connections.
Not to mention Old Yang’s vigorous support in the physical examination project.
Recently, upon learning that Shen Yuan was a shareholder with Mu Medical, Old Yang realized the investment was even more worthwhile.
"I heard he’s now involved in charity work; I just wonder if he’s interested in supporting the International campus’s educational ventures."
Yang Hongwei thought to himself.
Secretary Kong of the School Youth League Committee handed the speech to Shen Yuan, who greeted familiar leaders before beginning to familiarize himself with the speech.
Seeing Shen Yuan sitting in the first row, Lui Zhaojiang, the deputy secretary of the Youth League Committee in the second row, felt mixed emotions.
Lui had initially been skeptical when Shen Yuan proposed to invest in the startup base and had tried to assert control, only for Shen Yuan to ignore him and nearly causing the investment to fall through on his watch.
Later, Secretary Kong personally followed up with the investment with a humble attitude, ensuring it landed smoothly.
Thinking of this, Lui Zhaojiang shivered with retrospective fear.
But who could have imagined, how could an ordinary student from a second-tier university grow to such an extent?
He regretted not having built a good relationship with Shen Yuan. With Shen Yuan’s current status, once Old Kong was promoted, his own deputy position might have become a chief.
"Ah, why was I so foolish then?"
Lui Zhaojiang quietly shook his head.
The opening ceremony officially started at 10 a.m. with the host giving opening remarks, followed by speeches from teacher representatives and school leaders. Shen Yuan’s speech was scheduled second to last, before Chancellor Old Yang.
"Dear freshmen, the senior student representative who will speak next might have a name you’ve heard before. Just this morning, his name was buzzing across our campus’s various online platforms."
"I believe some of you may have guessed by now. Now, let’s welcome our senior, Shen Yuan, with a warm round of applause, to give his speech!"
