Faced with Lu Yiming's no-nonsense rejection, although Li Jiahong felt very sorry, he did not forcefully persuade him.

After all, strong melons are not sweet.

He stepped back and said: "Mr. Lu, your family history is full of inspiration and legend. After reading about you, the students in our school admire your talent and vision very much, and look forward to a more direct

way to contact you. So after going through the school board

After the research and discussion, we decided to grant you the status of an honorary alumnus of Huangren College, reimburse you for the accommodation expenses incurred by staying in the hotel during this period, and then ask you to give a speech to the teachers and students of the school to encourage the students and encourage them to work harder

What do you think of learning knowledge on a regular basis?"

In front of Lu Yiming, Li Jiahong behaved very politely, not at all arrogant because he was the principal.

Inviting Lu Yiming to give a speech at Huangren College was also a decision made after discussion by the school board of directors.

In Xiangjiang, the students in Form 6 and Form 7 are all preparatory students who are about to graduate and are about to enter the university campus and move towards an unknown future.

They are a lot confused and anxious about their lives, and this is when they need guidance from others.

Compared with the preaching of elders, the words of genius-level peers like Lu Yiming are obviously more influential on the students in the school.

This is what Li Jiahong had in mind.

He had already rejected Li Jiahong once. If he refused again, it would be too disrespectful and would make Li Jiahong unable to come to Taiwan. Moreover, Li Jiahong had reimbursed the accommodation expenses in a five-star hotel, so Lu Yiming thought it would be harmless to give a speech, so he

Accept it.

"Well, since Principal Li kindly invites me, I will not be respectful. The school does not have a tradition of late self-study, so the time for the speech is set at eight o'clock in the evening. What do you think?"

Seeing that Lu Yiming agreed, Li Jiahong was very happy: "Of course I can arrange the time, but Mr. Lu, don't you need to make preparations in advance?"

In his opinion, since you are going to give a speech, you must at least prepare a speech draft first.

Lu Yiming smiled slightly and said confidently: "It is said to be a speech, but in fact it is just a chat with everyone, sharing my mental journey during this period and my thoughts on society's success. What I said is true and truthful.

No special preparation is required.”

Li Jiahong Wenyan nodded happily: "Okay. I'll ask Teacher Yue to prepare the venue in a moment. Teacher Yue..."

Yue Guodong standing next to him quickly stood up: "Principal."

"Hurry up and take people to decorate the venue, and then send a notice to the whole school, asking students to prepare to listen to the speech in the evening."

"OK."

This scene changes so fast. Lu Yiming, who was an exchange student before, has suddenly turned into a genius who rejected the Ivy League schools. Now he has to give a speech to all the teachers and students in Huangren College. It feels like he is suddenly listening to the students.

He became a lecturer, which made everyone around him feel mixed emotions when he heard the news.

Especially Zhu Hanwen and others.

Before coming to Xiangjiang, who could have expected that such a situation would occur?

Li Jiahong had achieved his goal, so he stepped aside and said politely to Lu Yiming: "Mr. Lu, let's go to class. I'll come over to invite you after school in the afternoon."

"good."

Lu Yiming nodded slightly and walked into the school under the attention of the school leaders and senior classmates.

In Xiangjiang, a land where capital is king, no matter whether the cat is black or white, the one that can catch mice is a good cat.

As long as you have money, things like "You call me Dad, I call you Brother, let's do our own thing" are simply too common. Even in public, everyone calls Mrs. Niu, but in private, it's not uncommon for everyone to call her Xiao Tiantian.

.

In this world, if you have money, you will have everything.

What money can't buy, you can't buy any other way.

Therefore, you should become famous as early as possible, and you should make money as early as possible.

Entering the classroom, Lin Yuzhen felt as if she was still dreaming. She pinched Lu Yiming's arm hard.

The unsuspecting Lu Yiming suddenly screamed: "Ah... what are you doing?"

Lin Yuzhen looked astonished: "The principal came to pick us up at the school gate in person. Let me see if I am dreaming."

Lu Yiming rubbed his arm depressedly: "Then why are you pinching yourself? Why are you pinching me?"

Lin Yuzhen raised her chin naturally: "I'm afraid of pain."

Then, Lin Yuzhen blinked again and looked at Lu Yiming with the eyes of a magical creature: "You actually refused to study at Harvard and Cambridge? Will you really not regret it in the future? Those are the top universities in the world. How many people have never dreamed of it all their lives?

I want to study there."

Lu Yiming said with a smile: "Ordinary people are proud to be able to enter Harvard or Cambridge, but I am different. If I go, Harvard and Cambridge will be proud to have students like me. That is the territory of gringos. I can

Let them get what they want? Impossible."

Lin Yuzhen rolled her eyes, laughed and cursed: "You, you, you are so shameless."

The afternoon speech was held in the school auditorium.

All the teachers and students in the school were very interested in this speech. After all, Lu Yiming is considered a legend in Xiangjiang.

Fan Xueqin and Deng Yaqing came to the entrance of the auditorium early after school in the afternoon and were waiting. They had notebooks and pens in their hands, and they looked as if they were going to participate in some academic seminar.

This is especially true for the boys.

Because when they think of a young man who is about the same age as them and has made hundreds of millions of dollars by relying on his own abilities, they feel excited and can't wait for their turn to be next.

In this age where everything is about money, there is no better role model than a self-made young genius like Lu Yiming.

Not long after, Lu Yiming, accompanied by a group of school leaders, walked towards the auditorium.

Fan Xueqin excitedly grabbed Deng Yaqing's arm, looked at Lu Yiming with a peach-shaped face, couldn't help but take small steps, and cheered in a low voice: "He's here, he's here, he's so handsome."

Although Deng Yaqing grimaced in pain, she still stared at Lu Yiming intently and muttered: "He is handsome and rich. In the future, you should look for a husband like this."

Li Huishan next to her bit her lip, secretly regretting it. She should have been more enthusiastic when they first met, at least leaving a good impression.

Now it was too late to say anything. Looking at Lu Yiming, who was surrounded by the principal and several school directors in the center, Li Huishan felt that she had missed 100 million.

The auditorium of Huangren Academy was very large, dark and probably filled with thousands of people, and countless eyes were focused on it.

Fortunately, Lu Yiming has a good psychological quality. Otherwise, if he suddenly encountered such a big scene, he would have been so frightened that his legs would weaken on the spot.

After Lu Yiming was surrounded on stage, he looked calm. As the saying goes, money is the courage of a hero. Today, he has a net worth of more than one billion, and such a small scene can no longer affect him.

Taking the wired microphone from the etiquette club girl wearing cheongsam and stockings, Lu Yiming cleared his throat and then greeted everyone present: "Hello everyone, I am Lu Yiming, from Baiyun City, the capital of Guangdong Province, and I am currently a senior in high school.

The students, roughly equivalent to your sixth form here, are all about to take the university entrance examination."

The audience burst into applause.

Putting aside the facts, Lu Yiming's identity as a high school senior can easily gain everyone's approval. After all, people love fantasy. Lu Yiming was worth over 100 million before the college entrance examination. There is no reason why I can't be the same.

Am I weaker than others?

No one will admit this.

"I came to Huangren College for exchange and study. I never thought about standing here and preaching to everyone, because I really hate preaching, and I get tired of listening to those big principles. So I didn't prepare anything for today.

What a great truth, just think of it as listening to me talking to myself here, and just have fun listening to it."

Lu Yiming's down-to-earth speech attracted countless laughter, and the entire auditorium was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Many students who were serious about taking notes had expressions on their faces, and then their moods subconsciously changed.

Relax.

Zhu Hanwen is a traditional person. He believes that speeches should be written according to the script. He should prepare the manuscript in advance and read it according to it, trying not to make any mistakes. The entire speech should be done step by step, how to start, how to address topics, how to expand, how to sublimate... everything should be done step by step.

But now when he heard Lu Yiming open his mouth on the podium, Zhu Hanwen always felt uneasy in his heart, fearing that Lu Yiming would accidentally say the wrong thing and cause trouble.

However, Lu Yiming is not a person who likes to follow rules. He did not regard this speech as a serious report meeting, nor did he think about gaining benefits and reputation from it, so his current state is very relaxed.

"I see that all the people here are young people. This reminds me of the sentence in Lu Xun's article: 'May young people get rid of the air conditioning and just move up, without having to listen to the words of those who give up on themselves. Those who can do things can do things and can speak out.

The sound is made with a little heat and a little light. It can be like a firefly.

To shine a little light in the darkness, there is no need to wait for the torch. If there is no torch, I am the only light. If there is a torch and the sun comes out, we will naturally disappear with sincerity. Not only will there be no injustice, but we will also praise this with joy.

Torch or sun; for he shines upon mankind, including me.'"

"I like Lu Xun's articles very much. I think he is a wake-up call and a measuring stick. When more and more of his articles appear in our textbooks, it means that our society is getting better and better. On the contrary, if we

Lu Xun appears less and less in textbooks, which shows that some people are afraid of his appearance. I believe I don’t need to say more about what this means.”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I seem to be preaching here again. Look, you can't blame those teachers and scholars. It's not that they want to preach, but that this place has such magic power."

He stamped his foot fiercely, lowered his head and said through gritted teeth, "It's all your fault."

The people below were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

"Getting back to the subject, I believe you all know why the school invited me to give this speech. Isn't it just because I made a lot of money? I believe you have all heard about the financial defense war in Hong Kong? I firmly believe in the country and actively

Participate, so I make money. But those who don’t believe in the country and Hong Kong all lose money

, people are lining up to jump off buildings. Why is this? Because of choice. Looking back on a person's life, you will find that choice is often more important than hard work. If you choose the right path at the right time, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

If you make the wrong step, you will be in trouble. It is better to do twice the result with half the effort, but you are afraid that one misstep will cause eternal regret."

Lu Yiming talked and laughed happily on stage without any stage fright.

But in the audience, Wu Qiuya was deeply attracted by him and felt that a confident man was really handsome.
