Five minutes before Lin Qi arrived at the school, something was being discussed in the school's conference room.

The president from Student Union is having serious negotiations with the school Board of Directors. Student Union President has a frosty look on his face, but Dean of Academic Affairs has a smile on his face, which even gives people the illusion of being a bit condescending.

In the Baylor Federation and even around the world, which of those prestigious universities does not have a monstrous power of school board?

Especially in Gefra, a country with a monarchy, the power of students in schools is suppressed to the limit. Some schools with the name of "royal" even adopt a semi-military management system.

Not to mention Student Union's confrontation with the school management, he didn't even dare to be too obvious about questioning the school management's orders.

But at this moment, the atmosphere in the room was very strange and contrary to common sense.

"I looked at this year's enrollment plan, and nearly 10% of them are Recommended Students. This number has exceeded the highest number of Recommended Students recruits in the past years. You are destroying the environment of our school by doing this!"

The chairman of Student Union is a girl. She has long golden brown hair and a fair face without many flaws. Even when she is angry, it is difficult for her to look scary.

She slapped the table hard, and Dean of Academic Affairs across the table showed some wry smiles. The principal, Vice-Principal and others pretended not to hear anything.

Dean of Academic Affairs glanced at the big shots around him, and finally explained in a low voice while wiping his sweat, "Listen to me first, Anna..."

"This matter is not as simple as you think, and we are not willing to accept too many Recommended Students, but you know what happened last year, Financial Tsunami, the economy collapsed, there were more and more opportunities, and people who were not very interested in it became interested."

"We all know that when the world is in chaos, opportunities will come..."

This sentence "When the world is in chaos (if the government cannot maintain a stable social order), opportunities will come (opportunism and opportunists will become popular)..." comes from a relatively well-known sociologist. In one sentence, he clearly explained some truths and some real phenomena.

When order breaks down, the focus of social development and maintenance will shift, thus providing some bold people with good speculation opportunities.

The same is true for Federal. Opportunists have begun to appear frequently. Coupled with some recent changes at home and abroad, people can already see some future trends more intuitively.

At this time, it is necessary for the younger generation of your family to go to Saint and Harmony Society Alliance Colleges to get gold plated.

Saint and Harmony Society Colleges and Saint and Harmony Society members have become almost a universal pass in Federal's domestic upper-class social circle.

It is precisely because the mainstay of Upper Class is almost composed of these people, so when doing many things, there will be completely different results with and without such identity.

Therefore, some students who were not able to enter the college through formal means and had never thought of coming to Saint and Harmony Society Alliance Colleges were sent to the school through various connections and letters of recommendation.

Here I have to mention a little bit about Federal University's enrollment method. It does not adopt the more intuitive method of exam-oriented education, but uses an interview system.

A letter of recommendation written by a recommender with enough weight, even if they are recommending a trash, has a great chance of making the trash become a college student, even a college student at a prestigious school, if they can afford the tuition.

The interview system seems to be a fast track specially opened for these guys who like to use the back door. This admission method based entirely on subjective feelings allows some people who may be abnormal to become college students.

For example, the son of a tycoon was admitted to a university two years ago on the grounds that he "loved housework and had a healthy and sunny mind." His high school graduation score was only in fine arts.

The reason why he passed the art exam was because Art Teacher believed that his graduation work had the style of post-modern abstract art, so he reluctantly gave it a pass.

But such a student was actually able to enter a prestigious school, which caused some discussion at the time.

Now Saint Secheka College is facing a similar problem. A large number of students with recommendation letters enter the school through interviews (exemptions from exams?), which will inevitably cause the school's atmosphere to quickly deteriorate.

These students know without thinking that they have extraordinary births, but they are not the true family inheritance elite. They will definitely bring chaos to the school.

As the chairperson of Student Union, Anna cannot sit back and watch such a thing happen. After all, in her view, this school is not only a school for the school management, but also a school for the students.

Dean of Studies's careful explanation was successful, and Anna's emotions were comforted to a certain extent. In fact, the main reason was that she also knew that getting angry on her own could not change any results, but she had to show her and Student Union's attitude and could not let these people mess around.

Federal It's not like there is only one Saint and Harmony Society Alliance school, so we can push those people to other places!

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat silent. In the end, Anna seemed to make a concession, "We can't change the past, but in the future, I don't want more Recommended Students to enter the school. This is my responsibility to the school and the students!"

While Vice-Principal and other management continued to pretend to be elderly, only Dean of Studies nodded and wiped his sweat, "Yes, I will definitely find a way to reject them."

It seems that the school management is very afraid of Anna, or at least unwilling to offend her. This is also a unique characteristic of Saint and Harmony Society Alliance Colleges.

Student Union has great power, so much so that he can sometimes change the school management list! You must know that the students who can enter here, except those Recommended Students, are either excellent in character and academics, and have the potential to become cutting-edge scholars in some aspects or even scientists who can change some aspects of society.

Or, they are the children of some Saint and Harmony Society members.

Student Union has a sufficient social network. They can contact people at all levels and organize various activities without the help of the school. Student Union even has enough funds to directly approve some scientific research projects!

There are always some parents who, in order to give their children a bright future, throw money into schools without thinking of money, just to give their children a future.

In addition, Student Union itself is an elite team among the students. Behind everyone here is not just an ordinary family.

They may come from families of scholars and experts, or they may be influential and thoughtful in a certain field.

They may come from capitalist families and have money.

They may come from political families and have power.

Such a group of people are united and have ideas, money, power, and execution ability. The school Board of Directors has no way to deal with them. This is also the characteristic of Saint and Harmony Society Alliance Colleges. Student Union sometimes has more power than the school management.

As both parties compromised, the atmosphere in the room gradually relaxed, Anna achieved her goal, and then she began to apologize.

She also has a very extraordinary family, so she knows how to face the world.

After relying on the power in your hands to achieve your demands, you might as well lower your profile and say something worthless but that can ease the relationship to maintain everyone's dignity.

At this time, Lin Qi entered the school gate.

No matter where Lin Qi goes today, he is not as unknown as in the past. After all, the newspaper said that he is Youth Leader. No matter how powerful the reporter who wrote this report got Thank You Letter from Lin Qi, at least that is what the media reported.

After declining the invitation from two cute girls to guide him, Lin Qi found the management building on his own. After all, that thing was right in front of the main entrance.

After registering at the gatekeeper, he entered the place that 95% of high school students in Federal longed for.

The mirrored marble is spotless, and some kind of metal filling is used between the marble bricks. After careful maintenance, walking here feels like being in a palace or palace.

The bright and atmospheric architectural style makes the overall structure of the building very transparent, and there is always a very special feeling in people's minds.

It is said that the school's architectural designer is very famous internationally, and even Presidential Palace was designed by this designer.

The place is nice, but it's a bit hard to find people.

Lin Qi called several offices but no one answered. I don't know if it's because the school's management is not here now or during the summer vacation, or for some other reason.

He regretted not letting the two girls from before guide him. As he was wandering around, he heard some faint sounds around a corner.

Judging from the door number, it was a conference room. The dark red and gold-edged door of the conference room was not completely closed. Maybe the people inside did not realize that during the holiday, someone would come upstairs.

If he was just an ordinary student, he would wait here silently, and after the people inside finished what they were doing, tell the other party that he had been waiting here for a long time to show his sincerity.

But he was no ordinary student, so he knocked directly on the conference room door.

This may not be polite, but he really doesn't want to waste time here. Who knows how long he has to wait!

Ten seconds later, a person who looked like a teacher opened the door and opened it ajar. She stood in the door and looked at Lin Qi. She did not recognize Lin Qi at first.

From the teachers' point of view, most of the students actually look the same. Except for the students they have taught who left a deep impression on them, the others are all modeled after the same mold.

She looked Lin Qi up and down and asked softly, "What can you do?"

When she looked at Lin Qi, Lin Qi also looked at each other, "Yes, I would like to ask where to attend the recommended admission interview..."
