“You don't have the same impulse I have,” President Mu said in a proud tone. “Time has proven again that I was right. The money was well spent.”
President Shi thought to himself, You think I don't regret it?
I regretted. I wish I had offered more scholarships and benefits.
He should have offered more so Tan Mo would have come to Tsinghua instead.
At that time, he thought that there was rarely anyone as young as Tan Mo who had a good academic record…
He thought he had offered the best terms.
He thought there was no point in giving so much to one student.
Tsinghua is a top school. They will attract the best talent.
“No matter what, your university only has Tan Mo. Whether in the Ancient Text Competition or in the exchange this time, Tan Mo was the only one who did well, and the only one we defeated. You can't possibly hope that he will be the only one who continues to help you win all competitions.”
President Shi shook his head and said, “You should consider getting some more talented students. Currently you only have Tan Mo.”
President Mu knew that too.
But who else could compare to a genius like Tan Mo?
Tsinghua clearly did not have anyone who could compare to her.
No matter how good they were in their own field, when placed next to Tan Mo, they were not so good anymore.
“Tsinghua also don't have,” replied President Mu.
No matter what you say, Beijing University has Tan Mo, and Tsinghua does not.
President Shi is silent.

Exchange program completed.
The professors from the History Department intended to invite their students and Director Liu for a mini exchange session.
Since this year, the exchange program has been very short.
It just started, and then it's over.
They still have a lot of free time left over from the time slot they had originally scheduled.
Director Liu laughed and waved his hand, “I'm not humble. I don't really know all this history stuff. I'm counting on Tan Mo for all that. Before, I even wondered if I should take some classes at Beijing University. I have nothing to say to all of you. I know less than all of you about history, so.do not make a layman embarrass himself in front of all of you professionals.”.
“I came here this time to see Professor Tang, and I also want to discuss something with Tan Mo,” Director Liu said.
After hearing what he said, the history professor allowed him to excuse himself.
“Tan Mo, why don't you take me out?” Director Liu asked. “There's something I want to tell you, so can we walk and talk. After that I still have some work to do, otherwise I will invite you to dinner. Remember the dinner, and I'll treat you next time.”
Tan Mo nodded without hesitation.
Then he escorted her out of college.
“Year will be over soon.” As they walked, Director Liu said, “Next year, January 18 is the Tulip Awards Ceremony. I was nominated for ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ in all award categories, including director, male and female lead, supporting roles, new actors, big leaps forward, music, and costumes. Most importantly, your script was also nominated.”
Director Liu saw that Tan Mo was considering what he said.
"What's? Do you even need to consider this?” As Director Liu continued walking, he lowered his head and asked her, “What do you doubt?”
“Only those nominated should go to the ceremony?” ask Tan Mo.
Director Liu thought that he was worried that he would not be selected for the next round of nominations, so he laughed and said, “You must be in; otherwise, he said, I'm not coming to tell you this. If I come without knowing it, you'll be disappointed if you don't come in."
“Staf Tulips Awards has not announced it yet, but they have already shown me a list of successful nominees. You're in.” Director Liu laughed and said, ‘Not only you, all the other categories for ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ are in. I'm sure, we might not get all the awards, but we'll get at least half of the awards.”
He's not arrogant. It's just that “Legend of Wei and Jin” is the most popular series of the year, and also without much competition.
At this time, “Legend of Wei and Jin” is still broadcast on cable in the morning.
On weekdays, it is streamed once, then again on weekends.
That way, both housewives and retirees and those who need to go to school or work—those who only have free time on weekends—can see the series.
In both streaming periods, “Legend of Wei and Jin” topped the charts.
This is an incredible achievement, and it makes no sense if they don't get an award.
“I came to tell you about this, and I want you to accompany the film crew. Come with the whole crew, as the writer, and walk the red carpet with us, ” Director Liu said.
Tan Mo asked, “Will my brother be there too?”
Director Liu laughed and said, “Of course!”
“At the awards ceremony, when they mention the winner, the middle screen will display all the award-winning names. At that time, will the camera also catch my face?” ask Tan Mo.
Director Liu thought Tan Mo wanted to show himself in public, but he didn't think it was anything bad. It's normal that a young woman wants to have publicity.
“Of course, the screenwriter and all the other film crew will be filmed,” Director Liu explained patiently.
“Will it impact the television series?”
Director Liu did not expect that question from Tan Mo. She definitely did not expect him to consider it.
“Before, when the series was just filmed, many negative comments in cyberspace due to my young age. And this even impacts movie investment. This time, if I show my face, then it will prove what they suspected before. Then the views will probably be negatively affected.”
Director Liu noticed that Tan Mo's first consideration was for the tv series rather than himself.
This was the first time he had met a young girl like Tan Mo. He was young, but he could see the big picture.
“It will be fine.” Director Liu smiled. “I came to tell you this, which means no more problems."
“The series has finished airing, and is now playing for the second time, then the third time. Your performance will no longer affect the airing of the series,” explained Director Liu. “Your script has been approved and praised by the public, even if some people question the quality of the film. You can only prove yourself to them. Who can question you then?"
“They think you can't do what you did at such a young age, because they themselves are useless. That doesn't mean you can't do what you've achieved.” Director Liu was already used to seeing this sort of thing, so he didn't think it was a big deal.
“Also, you stand on stage and getting an award will help your brother. Your brother might invest in more series in the future. At that time, if he said that the film was written by you, then many good actors would run to him to get a chance to play in the film. Who wouldn't want to be in a good movie? A good movie can make an unknown actor a famous actor, and then their compensation will increase."
“My own opinion is, as long as there is no funny business, then most likely you will be the winner this time.” Director Liu and Tan Mo had involuntarily walked to the entrance of the university, so he stopped and said, “I'll be watching you."
“You are a smart girl, so you should know the benefits of getting this award. If you want to take it more seriously, you can ask your father to keep an eye on you. We ourselves won't do anything shady, but we don't want anything suspicious to happen to us, do we?”
