Chapter 1581: Well-planned

Zheng Yuan opened her mouth coldly to say, “If the director is invited in the name of the school by the principal, then any favors played from thereon will be between the school and the director. If Lu Man intervened, she’d be using Young Master Han’s and the Han Corporation’s name. It’d become a favor owed between Lu Man, Young Master Han, the Han Corporation, and the director. Wouldn’t this be too big of a favor then?”

Zheng Yuan didn’t even dare say the rest in front of the school’s leaders.

What a big standing Dong Jingxi had, huh, to use the Han Corporation and its people and make them play second fiddle to the school?

Moreover, the students like her were the ones who stood to gain.

Especially Dong Jingxi and the few others, who always lacked the opportunity to work with a big-name director.

But if they got the chance to become acquainted with reputable directors because of Lu Man, then they could easily advance their careers. It was something they could only benefit from.

Dong Jingxi dared to have it all well-planned.

“Don’t you understand? That’s what Principal Liu meant. This is the school’s affair. No matter what favor owed, the school will be responsible for it, not Lu Man, and not the Han Corporation,” Zheng Yuan said. “So we can’t ask Lu Man to do this.”

Principal Liu nodded; Zheng Yuan got his point.

“We can’t let Lu Man represent the school?” Dong Jingxi merely wanted to challenge them so that the school wouldn’t pamper Lu Man like a precious babe.

But now that her suggestion was ruthlessly denied, not only did she not achieve her aim, she was made to seem like a fool.

This was not her original goal anymore, but Dong Jingxi couldn’t back down, determined to gain back her dignity.

“Lu Man’s representing the school in the competition. She’s part of the group, so can’t she do more for the school?” Dong Jingxi said snidely.

Zheng Yuan sneered, “Then why don’t you do something too? Aren’t you filming as well? Go contact a few directors, then!”

Dong Jingxi gritted her teeth. “If I had Lu Man’s connections, I would. But I don’t have them, do I? And there’s no need to approach other directors. Isn’t Lu Man well-acquainted with Director Sun and Director Ji? Approaching any one of them will do. When Lu Man joined Classic X Files back then, didn’t she invite Director Sun, Director Ji, Du Lin, and even Wang Juhuai? Now that the school needs help, she’s not going to do a thing?”

Zheng Yuan curled her lip. “And when she brings a famous director, you’ll seize the chance to make yourself known for future work opportunities, is that right? Using Lu Man’s effort to benefit yourself, how well thought out.”

Dong Jingxi’s countenance became ugly. “Lu Man hasn’t found anyone yet and you’ve already planned my future moves for me!”

“Enough!” Principal Liu broke their argument.

However, he didn’t step in when Zheng Yuan spoke.

He only intervened when it was Dong Jingxi’s turn. His stand was apparent.

Dong Jingxi did not consider things as deeply as Zheng Yuan did just now because she was focused on making things difficult for Lu Man.

But now that she was involved, she knew whom Principal Liu supported when he spoke.

“If Lu Man really didn’t care, then she’d be in New York by now, not in a meeting here,” Principal Liu said coldly. “This is the school’s matter, and if every little thing is passed to Lu Man to deal with, then I might as well hand over my position as principal to her.”

Dong Jingxi lowered her head with a dark expression.

Dean He said, “Alright, the most important thing now is unity. If we can’t even do this, there’s not a chance we can win.”
