Super God-Level Top Student-Chapter 533 - 231 Interest Relations_2

After pondering for a long while, Chen Yuanzhi finally said, "Wait a second, did you just say 'we'? Including Li Jiangao?"

"Yeah, there's no need to mention Professor Li. When Qiao Ze is going out to do his thing, how could he not bring his mentor along? And then there's Yu, the director of the admissions office, who is an old acquaintance of Professor Qiao. You may even need to deal with Director Yu frequently, right?"

As Xu Dajiang spoke, he seemed to be looking forward to the school quickly approving his resignation so he could spread his wings and soar.

"What do you mean I'll need to deal with Director Yu more often?" Chen Yuanzhi asked with an expressionless face.

"Oh, look at how you talk. Aren't you aware? I'm a responsible person! Didn't Professor Qiao bring in that deep-sea exploration project? We can't just stop it because he's leaving, so I came up with a solution for the school.

Look, we can set up a research institute affiliated with Licheng High Tech Company, and then the school can hire our research institute to provide technical guidance for these projects. Although we would be changing from a subsidiary to a collaborative relationship, we could still contribute to the school's development," Xu explained.

"Director Yu is better at handling these external affairs, and when the school discusses collaboration with our institute, they will definitely need to talk to Yu frequently. Let me tell you, Yu is also quite sentimental, especially since his promotion from a recruiting teacher to the director of the admissions office happened during your tenure, so he feels grateful.

As long as you are willing to personally discuss with him, he would certainly offer the school a big discount. Professor Qiao neither lacks money nor cares about these trivial matters. If I turn a blind eye, we'll be all set. Trust me, there won't be any problems!"

When Xu Dajiang spoke about this exciting topic, he couldn't help but wave his hands with great momentum.

Despite frequently saying "you" respectfully, his gaze wasn't very respectful at all.

His air of a small-minded person triumphing was as if he was no longer the dean of the School of Mathematics but rather the person in charge of a newly established research institute, warmly receiving Chen Yuanzhi, who had come to seek cooperation.

But then again, people who are planning to resign tend not to take their leaders very seriously.

Let alone Xu Dajiang, a veteran who hadn't even planned to resign didn't seem to hold the leader before him in high regard either.

This made Chen Yuanzhi's eyelids twitch involuntarily.

Good grief, acting like a rebellious post-2000s at his age?

School-corporate collaboration has come into play.

In typical school-corporate collaborations, the school's laboratories are responsible for research, and the corporations for funding.

And he has the audacity to seek publicity from television for the complete opposite? Experience tales with novelbuddy

Alright, Chen Yuanzhi had seen enough to understand that this crafty old fox was truly determined. The dean, who only cared about his own turf, didn't even bother to be hypocritically polite to him anymore.

"Forget it, don't waste your breath with all this nonsense. Your resignation request won't pass with me. Let me be clear, I won't sign it. It won't even get discussed at the principal's office meeting!" Chen Yuanzhi stated bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Dajiang flew into a rage.

"Chen, what do you mean by this? I'm not getting any younger, and I've finally found an opportunity for success. Are you trying to block my path? Let me tell you, if you don't approve, I'll just violate the rules intentionally, and then expose myself. My reputation isn't worth much anyway, so just wait to be expelled by the school!

I don't believe you can stop me temporarily and forever. Do you believe that if you walk away now, I'll immediately start looking at the school's disciplinary requirements to find a way to get dismissed? If you push me to desperation, I'll make my students take turns to find excuses to report me online in their real names, and you won't be able to cover for me forever!

Let me tell you, Chen. Let's part on good terms, and in the future when I see you, I'll still respectfully call you Principal and might even do you a favor if you want to cooperate. But if you force me to expose myself, then when we meet in the future, we'll have to have a proper talk."

"You…" Chen Yuanzhi, pointing at Xu Dajiang, for a moment, didn't know what to say.

He knew that the old guy liked unorthodox strategies.

But he didn't expect them to be this extreme.

Could this really be the words and the strategies thought up by the dean of a second-level school at a key university?

This is the intellectual elite, ready to self-sabotage to the extreme? No dignity left?

But in the end, Chen Yuanzhi softened.

"Alright, Xu, let's not act rashly. I admit, you might have a better development out there..."

"It's not 'might,' it's for certain!" Xu Dajiang interrupted, unapologetic.

"Alright, alright, certainly a better development. But we can't just think of ourselves, can we?" Principal Chen said, trying to keep his temper in check.

"Who else should we think about if not ourselves? I was previously wholly dedicated to developing the School, wasn't I? But before the School could even take off, its pillar must be transferred away. Yes, Professor Qiao might stay now, but I'm thinking that in a while, when Xilin School of Mathematics truly reaches the top tier in the country, I might also be gone!"

"Even if you leave, the achievements you've made are seen by everyone, and that would certainly lead to a promotion!"

"If I were ten years younger, going anywhere would look promising, but counting it out, I've only got five or six years left before I retire. Now you want me to move somewhere else and adapt again? No, no, better to jump out of this conflict circle as soon as possible."
