Principal Ding asked the director of the Sports Department, Xiong Yang, who was beside him.
"Principal Ding, today at the Central Sports Stadium, aside from the National University Sports Games volunteer enrollment, there isn’t any other event." Director Xiong Yang quickly responded.
"So, are all these students here to sign up as volunteers for the National University Sports Games?"
Principal Ding said in disbelief.
"Most likely, the students from Mist City Arts and Science University have such high enthusiasm and consciousness."
Director Xiong Yang immediately nodded and said with a smile.
"Isn’t that the truth."
When Principal Ding initially estimated the recruitment of volunteers for the National University Sports Games, he thought it would not be a problem, but he did not expect to see so many students showing up to sign up on the first day at the Central Sports Stadium.
Moreover, on-site registration at the Central Sports Stadium was just one of the channels. Students could also apply by submitting their information to the counselors.
"Hello, Principal Ding!"
Just as Principal Ding and Director Xiong Yang were discussing the bustling scene of the enrollment, some students saw Principal Ding and immediately called out to greet him.
"Hello, students."
Principal Ding also raised his hand to greet the students and asked with a smile, "Are all of you here to sign up as volunteers for the National University Sports Games?"
"Yes!"
The group of students answered in unison.
Seeing the large-scale volunteer signup event, Principal Ding felt very pleased.
"Very good. Seeing everyone so actively signing up as volunteers for the National University Sports Games, I feel very reassured as your principal."
Principal Ding said to the students with a smile.
"Principal Ding, we feel proud that the National University Sports Games are being hosted by our Mist City Arts and Science University."
"Yes, by volunteering, we can contribute to the National University Sports Games being held at our school."
"Besides studying, there’s not much else going on."
"After seeing the school’s call to action, I came."
"Serving as volunteers for National University Sports Games on behalf of the school reflects the quality of us students from Mist City Arts and Science University."
"You guys are so conscious. I’m different, though. I was dragged here by my best friend to sign up. 0.0"
The students discussed their various reasons for coming to sign up as volunteers for the National University Sports Games.
A large portion of the students believed it was a great opportunity to showcase the strength of Mist City Arts and Science University as the host and home team. After all, volunteers are an indispensable part of any large sporting event.
Some students felt that since the school was hosting the National University Sports Games, as a part of the institution, it was natural for them to offer their own contribution.
Others came without hesitation, motivated by the school’s call to action.
Only a few were possibly there at the behest of best friends or buddies, just to make up the numbers.
However.
In reality, the number of volunteers for the National University Sports Games should not be too few, nor too many. A slightly high number is fine, but not so many that several thousand of the 80,000-plus students at Mist City Arts and Science University turn up as volunteers.
"Principal Ding, I’ve been meaning to ask, how many people would be suitable for the National University Sports Games volunteer force?"
The director of the Sports Department, Xiong Yang, thought of this and asked Principal Ding.
"We’ll certainly need more than the number of athletes, given how big our school is. Having more volunteers is acceptable. Director Xiong, roughly how many student athletes will there be competing in this National University Sports Games?"
Principal Ding asked with a smile.
"There are bound to be several thousand, considering there are so many universities across the country."
Director Xiong Yang replied.
"If that’s the case, why don’t we set our volunteer number around ten thousand? We aim to have one volunteer able to serve one athlete, and not just that, there will also be spectators coming to watch the games."
Ding Yue thought for a moment, then said.
Firstly, Mist City Arts and Science University has a large campus, so having more volunteers would definitely be better. Secondly, there are already several thousand athletes, not to mention the spectators and such. If we only arrange a small number of volunteers, the reception and service will inevitably be inadequate. As a result, the reputation of the National University Sports Games hosted by Mist City Arts and Science University will certainly not be very good.
Only when there are enough volunteers and comprehensive services in place throughout the National University Sports Games can we host a perfect event.
"Okay, Principal Ding, then we’ll set the number of volunteers for this National University Sports Games at around ten thousand."
Director Xiong Yang hurriedly nodded and agreed with Principal Ding’s decision about the number of volunteers.
"Principal Ding, Miss An is looking for you."
At this moment, the secretary, Wen Ruohan, came forward and whispered to Principal Ding.
"Mm." freewebnσvel.cøm
Ding Yue nodded slightly, then turned to Director Xiong Yang and said, "Director Xiong, the volunteer matter will be handed over to you for arrangements. After the registration is complete, select the volunteers we need and then provide them with comprehensive training in volunteer service. Remember, one of the most important things for our Mist City Arts and Science University this semester is this National University Sports Games."
"Don’t worry, Principal Ding, I will make sure everything is well prepared."
Director Xiong Yang immediately made a commitment.
"Good, I have other things to take care of, so I’ll head back first."
After finishing speaking, Ding Yue turned and left the Central Sports Stadium and headed towards the Administration Building.
And at the Administration Building.
An Yujia was there today to report to Principal Ding about the Spring Festival Period movie box office results.
Movies released during the Spring Festival Period in February were now in March, and the results of the first month’s box office earnings had come out. Popular blockbusters like Mist City Arts and Science University’s "Wandering Earth" of course got the key to continue screening.
And in the extended screening period, "Wandering Earth" showed quite impressive performance.
About fifteen minutes later,
An Yujia met Principal Ding, who was coming back from the Central Sports Stadium.
"Miss An, what can I do for you?"
After returning to his principal’s office, Ding Yue sat down in a comfortable chair and asked An Yujia.
"Principal Ding, the main purpose of my visit is to report on Feiyue Media’s ’Wandering Earth.’"
An Yujia had a document in her hand.
This document was the prepared work report.
"Oh, right, ’Wandering Earth’ has been out for quite some time since the Spring Festival Period, hasn’t it? Did it receive a key for extended screening?"
Ding Yue, upon hearing this, suddenly focused and asked.
Ding Yue had paid close attention to the science fiction movie "Wandering Earth" during the Spring Festival, almost checking the box office several times each day.
Although Ding Yue no longer cared about how much a movie made for those small goals, this movie had the chance to challenge the domestic box office record, so Ding Yue was very focused on it at that time.
But ever since Mist City Arts and Science University started its new term, Ding Yue’s attention to "Wandering Earth" had gradually decreased, and he even forgot about it when he was busy.
"Mm-hm, we successfully obtained the key for extended screening. Other movies like ’Happy New Year’ and ’Hong Kong Spokesperson’ also received the key for extended viewing."
An Yujia nodded and replied.
"How’s the box office?"
Ding Yue asked again, "Last time I checked, it was over 3.9 billion yuan. How much is it now?"
"Principal Ding, here’s some good news I wanted to share: our ’Wandering Earth’ has become the strongest dark horse of the Spring Festival Period, even earning the status of a national-level science fiction film. The number of viewers set a new record. At the same time, the box office also set a new record. The current box office earnings are at 4.871 billion yuan! It has become the number one in Chinese film box office history!"
An Yujia replied excitedly.
