Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?-Chapter 239: This Sponsorship is Totally Worth It

TL: Etude

When people work for themselves, they tend to be incredibly proactive. However, when it comes to working for others, procrastination often sets in. Zhang Baiqing was well aware of this human flaw and also knew about Jiang Qin’s slippery nature. Worried that Jiang wouldn’t take the task seriously since it wasn’t his personal affair, Zhang made a point to remind Zhuang Siyu about this after the meeting.

“Siyu, make sure to keep reminding Jiang Qin about the materials in the coming days, so he doesn’t forget.”

“Alright, Principal. I’ll call him as soon as I get back.”

Zhuang Siyu agreed and began packing up to leave. Just as she slung her bag over her shoulder, her phone started vibrating. The caller ID displayed Jiang Qin’s name.

Zhang Baiqing glanced at the phone and suggested she put it on speaker. Jiang Qin’s voice soon filled the room.

“Senior Zhuang, why haven’t you sent me the materials list yet? It’s been twenty minutes already. Principal Zhang will scold me for not being proactive.”

“I just finished the meeting…”

“Hurry up, Senior. I can’t wait to spend money for the school. I’m practically dying of anticipation!!”

“?”

After the call, Zhuang Siyu couldn’t help but glance at Zhang Baiqing, who was also a bit perplexed. He wondered to himself, what’s going on with me? Have I become old and unable to read people accurately?

Could it be that Jiang Qin is actually an honest, kind, and trustworthy student?

In fact, Principal Zhang’s analysis of human nature wasn’t wrong. People do tend to delay work for others subconsciously. However, he didn’t realize that in Jiang Qin’s eyes, the promotional materials for the sports meet weren’t someone else’s task; they were his own.

At 3 P.M., Zhuang Siyu sent the list for the promotional materials to Jiang Qin, who then forwarded it to Lu Xuemei.

Two hours later, Shengshi Advertising had already started processing the order.

Linchuan University 208 was a regular client of theirs. They collaborated frequently and, since there were no holidays around, the factory wasn’t busy, leading to a very fast production pace.

During the days the materials were being produced, Jiang Qin wasn’t idle either. He visited Wanzhong Mall to inspect the office and also listened to reports from Bao Wenping and Yue Zhu about the first round of interviews.

The number of applicants was indeed high, but their quality varied greatly. The two managers worked together to select candidates, leaving twenty-six for the second round of interviews. Half of them lacked substantial project experience but were retained for their impressive interview performance.

“Boss Jiang, I must admit my knowledge in advertising and marketing isn’t very professional. I’m afraid of overlooking potential talents, so I lowered the threshold to keep as many candidates as possible for the second round. You can make the final decision,” Bao Wenping explained.

Jiang Qin nodded. “Thanks for your hard work, managers. There are still a few days left. I hope we can recruit some more experienced veterans.”

“Sure, Boss Jiang. We’ll spread the recruitment information again.”

He Yijun sat nearby, watching Jiang Qin skillfully and assertively managing his female managers. He felt a tinge of envy.

Thinking about how even the office was his, the envy grew stronger.

However, with Jiang Qin’s guidance, the mall’s reform was rapidly progressing, and they were expected to start a new marketing campaign by the end of the month. He Yijun planned to take advantage of this situation. He had experienced firsthand the spending power of college students, which was incredibly tempting. Since he was using my office, why couldn’t I leverage his traffic? freeweɓnovel.cѳm

“He Yijun?”

Snapping out of his thoughts, He Yijun responded, “What’s up?”

Jiang Qin turned to him. “Our school’s sports meet is coming up. I’ve taken the opportunity to promote group visits to stores. Your mall’s hotpot and sour fish restaurants are listed on the homepage.”

“Really?”

“Of course. We’re like family. I wouldn’t forget Wanzhong. So, I hope the mall pays extra attention this weekend. Clear out the old stock, use the freshest ingredients. Let’s work together on this.”

He Yijun felt instantly relieved. That’s more like it. A win for you alone isn’t a win-win. We both need to win together!

“Boss Jiang, let’s have dinner tonight. Try the taste of my hotpot restaurant!”

“Let’s wait for the weekend. I need to go back to school and work on my abs.”

“…”

On Thursday afternoon, with a warm breeze and gentle sun, Shengshi Advertising called Jiang Qin to inform him that the materials were ready and on their way. Zhuang Siyu received a call from Jiang Qin, who then gathered a large group of student union members to clear the field.

Those playing cards, dating, or playing board games were all asked to leave.

Then, trucks from Shengshi Advertising began arriving at Linchuan University one after another, stopping in designated spots around the field and at the main stage.

As the trucks opened, waves of workers in blue uniforms emerged, quickly unloading materials.

Seeing this, the more than twenty members of the student union exchanged glances, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

To be honest, they didn’t really want to come when Zhuang Siyu called them, knowing they would probably have to work. Some even wore clothes they planned to wash, with white cotton gloves in their pockets.

But seeing the efficient workers, they realized they might not need to do much after all.

“How much does this all cost?”

“Don’t know, but definitely a lot.”

“Businessmen really have money. Covering an entire field alone, that’s so audacious.”

The student union members whispered among themselves, clearly aware of the identity of the man who had sarcastically dealt with Tan Shipeng in the meeting room and promised to sponsor the sports meet.

Jiang Qin, Linchuan University’s entrepreneurial star, the boss of Zhihu and Pintuan, and the creator of the Four School Beauties contest.

Ever since these titles became known, the student union members finally understood why this guy had shown no courtesy to the student union vice president.

After all, not even the president’s title was as useful as any of Jiang Qin’s.

While everyone was unsure of what to do and simply stood around chatting, a figure suddenly appeared on the field, riding a pink electric scooter and heading straight for the chairman’s stage. Everyone focused and realized it was Jiang Qin.

“Damn, that’s flashy… a pink scooter…”

More than twenty people watched as he rode around the field, handed out a few packs of cigarettes to the workers unloading materials, and then casually approached them.

“Junior, where’s your car?”

“Recently, there’s been a push for low-carbon and environmentally friendly transportation, so I’m doing my part. It’s my responsibility as an entrepreneur.”

Zhuang Siyu’s lips twitched slightly, thinking to herself how adept her junior was at delivering such formal rhetoric so effortlessly.

Jiang Qin had actually just made that up. Ever since his little rich lady learned to ride an electric scooter, she’d come looking for him whenever she had no classes, then coldly ask him to take her for a ride.

She enjoyed sitting on the back, holding onto his clothes while they cruised along the lake shore, never seeming to get tired of it.

This habit had made Jiang Qin accustomed to riding the electric scooter. He’d even forgotten about his Audi. And since the dormitory didn’t allow charging electric scooters indoors for fire safety, he’d been charging it at 208 and riding it from there.

“How much did all this material for the five trucks cost, including production and installation?”

At that moment, Tan Shipeng, the vice president of the student union, couldn’t help but ask, pointing at the workers.

“I don’t know.” Jiang Qin shook his head.

“You don’t know?”

“We have a longstanding collaboration with Shengshi Advertising. For large orders like this, we usually do the work first and settle the bill later. Don’t worry, Brother Peng, it’s just a small amount.”

Hearing the term “Brother Peng,” Tan Shipeng swallowed hard, looking away and saying no more.

Jiang Qin grinned, feeling that it was indeed necessary to show off wealth at the right moment. After all, Principal Zhang wasn’t there, and pretending to be poor had no point.

As time passed, over two-meter-tall PVC boards were erected, placed to the right of the chairman’s stage, with the main slogan of Linchuan University’s Spring Sports Meet written on a bright yellow background.

Besides the main slogan, there was also a line that read, “Stay at hotels, eat hotpot, KTV, go online – come to Pintuan store, everything at 60% off.”

Moreover, the partitions around each event area were also filled with the phrase “Pintuan store, Pintuan store, Pintuan store.”

Even above the chairman’s stage, under the Spring Sports Meet banner, another banner was filled with “Pintuan store.”

As the workers gradually laid out the materials, Zhuang Siyu realized that the entire field was filled with “Pintuan store” in yellow, almost dazzling to the eyes.

“Wow, did we just stumble into a Pintuan store nest?” The student union members were stunned.

“Junior, isn’t this advertisement a bit too overwhelming?” Zhuang Siyu couldn’t help but look at Jiang Qin.

“I didn’t plan to do so much initially, but Principal Zhang mentioned that there might be TV stations covering the event. I was afraid they might miss it, so I printed it everywhere. Oh, and look at the flags, too.”

As everyone looked forward, they saw the workers who had finished setting up the advertisement boards starting to plant flags around the field.

Next to each Linchuan University flag, there was a Pintuan store flag.

Zhuang Siyu looked deeply at Jiang Qin, thinking that he really knew how to spend his money effectively. No wonder he agreed so readily during the meeting.

As evening approached and the sky darkened, the workers tidied up and left. Linchuan University’s field had completely transformed into Jiang Qin’s territory.

After returning from the field, Zhuang Siyu showed Principal Zhang Baiqing the photos of the scene, leaving him speechless.

“I really didn’t misjudge him…”

The next morning at 8 A.M., under a gentle sun and clear skies, various departments began mobilizing students to head to the field for the sports meet.

When the field was full, a small team wearing little yellow hats entered. The hats had “Pintuan” written on them, and they held flyers and advertising fans, distributing them from both sides of the chairman’s stage.

“Stay at hotels, eat hotpot, KTV, go online – come to Pintuan store, everything at 60% off.”

“Get together for a meal after the games, use Pintuan for a 60% discount!”

“Food, drinks, fun – have you joined Pintuan today?”

“New users get 60% off. Order from Pintuan store and spend less for the best rooms!”

Meanwhile, Zhihu’s forum opened a special topic to update competition rankings, highlighting real-time online and offline integration.

“Damn, 60% off for a hotel room? Let’s do it tonight!”

“Let’s try the hotpot. Our dorm goes out for meals every week.”

“Foot massage… Is that okay? I’ve never been. Anyone want to show me?”

“We haven’t had a gathering in a while. Ever since everyone got partners, our dorm’s relationship has become distant. I wonder if anyone would come if I organize a group coupon tonight.”

“Let’s go to the swimming pool. Do they also offer 60% off for memberships?”

At that moment, Jiang Qin stood to the right of the chairman’s stage, looking at the small yellow hats below, feeling content. He thought to himself that his money was well spent, as the atmosphere was instantly heated up.

He stood there for a while, then suddenly saw several people who looked like teachers heading towards the chairman’s stage. Thinking it best to leave before Principal Zhang caught him, he slipped away, not wanting to overstep his bounds as an outsider.
