Starting from a Fake University-Chapter 1593 - 840 You Are the Future of the World_2
Chapter 1593: Chapter 840 You Are the Future of the World_2
The students couldn’t help but feel emotional again.
On such a momentous day like today, the day of the graduation ceremony, everyone naturally feels sentimental. After all, these emotions are part of human nature, and their infectiousness is undeniable.
*Cough cough.*
As Ding Yue stepped onto the stage and stood before the microphone at the podium, he gave it a brief test.
In a moment, it would be his turn to deliver his speech.
"Students, teachers, on this special day, we gather here with hopeful hearts to bid farewell to the first cohort of outstanding students from Mist City Arts and Science University."
Thus began Ding Yue’s speech.
These opening lines were largely drawn from the speech he had carefully prepared beforehand.
However, apart from the planned script, Ding Yue had also included a more spontaneous segment in his speech. After all, for such an event as today’s graduation ceremony, following the script rigidly from start to finish would feel far too formal—and that wouldn’t suit Principal Ding’s personality or image.
"Students, our first cohort at Mist City Arts and Science University consists of over nine thousand six hundred individuals. It is you who have brought vibrancy to our university!"
Ding Yue continued.
The next part of the speech was primarily about employment statistics related to these first graduates of Mist City Arts and Science University.
"Your hard work has brought joy to me as your principal. Through your tireless efforts during your four years of university, you successfully met our graduation requirements. And let me remind you, graduating from Mist City Arts and Science University is no easy feat; the standards are stringent. Yet, every single one of you has accomplished this. I am truly proud of you!"
"Following graduation, some students opted for postgraduate study, while others stepped out of campus and ventured into society to apply their professional knowledge, contributing to societal progress with their expertise and effort."
"Now, about the employment rate of our first cohort of graduates—do you know how many of our students have secured jobs? I believe this is a question that many people are eager to know, including those underclassmen gathered here to witness today’s ceremony. Isn’t that right?"
As Ding Yue spoke, he looked toward the densely packed audience of students from other year levels seated in the Central Sports Ground.
Freshmen, sophomores, juniors—most students who didn’t have classes were present, sitting in the spectator seats to observe the graduation ceremony. This was Mist City Arts and Science University’s inaugural graduation ceremony, an event of considerable significance and reference value for those who had yet to graduate.
For a time, the entire Central Sports Ground was teeming with people, reminiscent of the grand occasions when it hosted the National University Sports Games.
Well, it’s hard to avoid such a turnout at Mist City Arts and Science University, given its large student population. Organizing an event like a graduation ceremony with tens of thousands in attendance is practically a breeze here.
"Regarding our employment rate," Ding Yue declared with conviction, "I can tell you very seriously that the employment rate for the first cohort of graduates from Mist City Arts and Science University is 100%!"
He announced this figure with unmistakable pride.
Yes, you heard that right—100%.
At this very moment, every graduate of Mist City Arts and Science University had already secured their own job offer. In fact, a significant portion of the students had started working even before the ceremony—some of them within Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group.
"Whoa! 100% employment rate!"
"Are our senior students really that incredible?"
"Is this for real?"
"I always knew our alma mater wouldn’t let us down."
"Does this mean I’ll be able to find my dream job when I graduate in the future?"
"Amazing!"
"And what does this tell us? It tells us that Mist City Arts and Science University graduates are in high demand!"
"Haha, we’re now the golden ticket that everyone’s fighting for."
The junior students in the audience couldn’t conceal their excitement and joy. It seemed as if their seniors’ successful employment experiences made them even more thrilled than their own future prospects.
"Every student who graduates from Mist City Arts and Science University will secure a job that satisfies them. And now, I’m going to announce another statistic that I believe will pique your interest even more. Would you like to know what it is?"
With a touch of intrigue, Ding Yue teased the audience.
"Yes!"
Both the graduating seniors and the underclassmen shouted in unison.
Who wouldn’t want to know what this intriguing data was?
Even the viewers in the live-streaming graduation ceremony chatroom were eager to find out.
When Ding Yue had previously announced the employment rate of Mist City Arts and Science University’s first cohort of graduates, it had already left netizens dumbfounded.
A 100% employment rate—what an astonishing figure!
To put it plainly, even universities like Qinghua and Yancheng University can’t boast that every graduate finds employment. It’s nearly impossible for any institution to achieve a 100% employment rate—after all, there’s always the chance that at least one graduate might decide not to look for work immediately after graduation.
As a result, skepticism regarding the Mist City Arts and Science University’s employment rate began circulating online. People speculated that the university might have enforced statistical manipulation, akin to practices seen at low-ranking colleges or vocational schools that funnel students into factory jobs—achieving "100% employment" in name only, without considering the students’ experiences or satisfaction.
Such rumors spread quickly on the internet, as most believed Mist City Arts and Science University, being a private institution, might resort to these measures.
However!
The rebuttal came as swiftly as a tornado!
Ding Yue immediately quenched everyone’s curiosity by revealing the next statistic: "This unique metric is something that only Mist City Arts and Science University tracks—graduate satisfaction with their current jobs. Leaving out those pursuing postgraduate studies, we surveyed all employed graduates, and the result was a satisfaction rate of 95.4%."
"I won’t claim that every single graduate is absolutely satisfied with their current job, but this figure demonstrates that the vast majority of students are very content with their chosen profession!"
He spoke with undeniable pride.
Such a high level of job satisfaction among graduates wasn’t fabricated—it was the result of interviews conducted with every single employed graduate.
Yes, the satisfaction rate was indeed over 95%.
"Unbelievable! Such high satisfaction?"
"Well, that’s certainly a slap in the face, isn’t it?"
"All those people online claiming that Mist City Arts and Science University fakes its graduate employment rates—look who’s been proven wrong now, haha!"
"Absolutely. I’ve spoken with many seniors, and they’re all quite happy with the jobs they’ve secured."
"Not only does our university have opportunities at Feiyue Group, but they also genuinely help you find the type of job you want. This kind of institution is absolutely one-of-a-kind in my lifetime."
The younger students of Mist City Arts and Science University uniformly affirmed the data.
Because this statistic wasn’t fabricated—it was real.
Many juniors had asked their graduating seniors about their job satisfaction, and indeed, the majority expressed immense contentment!
"Dear students, I want to remind you that once you step beyond the campus gates, apply all that you’ve learned and shine brightly in this radiant world. I firmly believe one thing—that you are the future of this world!"
With these words, Ding Yue elevated the tone of his speech to an entirely new level, expanding the scope of his message dramatically.
Every skilled professional stepping out of university to contribute to various fields applies their expertise and technical prowess to reshape the world and craft the future!
Ding Yue’s sentiment couldn’t be truer.
The graduates nurtured by Mist City Arts and Science University are undoubtedly the architects of tomorrow!
Listening to Principal Ding’s words, the students’ blood surged with excitement. The crowd erupted into cheers; the energy in the venue was electric!
