Chapter 61: Chapter 60 The Capital Is Quite Substantial
After Si Malin and Guan Biran had taken Lin Rui’s medical examination data and left, Lin Rui looked out at Fang Ranran and asked, “President, do you have any other matters?”
He was actually hinting to this young Miss Fang that she could leave now, as he was about to come out of the surgical pod and the situation might get a bit awkward.
Fang Ranran didn’t catch on and, with her arms crossed, looked at Lin Rui’s perfectly proportioned body and sighed repeatedly, “What a pity, what a pity.”
Lin Rui raised an eyebrow, curious, and asked, “President, you seem very concerned about advancing to the finals of the university league. Is there some other reason?”
It seemed that young Miss Fang’s aim was not just to revitalize the school martial arts club and promote her Tianlan Corporation’s products.
Fang Ranran scratched her head and sighed again, “It’s my grandfather, he is about to pass away. He told me he had one last wish, to see our school’s zhi-zhuang martial arts department rank within the top ten of Base Nine before he goes. I thought it would be better to fulfill his wish sooner rather than let it become a dying wish.”
...
“Grandfather? Is he your maternal grandfather?” Lin Rui looked skeptical.
He knew that in the Earth era in Sichuan, some regions called the maternal grandfather ‘grandfather,’ but why would Fang Ranran’s maternal grandfather have such an odd wish?
Fang Ranran smiled, “It means my maternal grandfather. My maternal grandfather’s name is Linghu Mingde.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Rui suddenly understood. Linghu Mingde was the founder of Mingde University. His statue was even standing at the entrance of the school.
“My grandfather’s greatest regret in life,” she continued, “was that during his tenure as the principal, he didn’t manage the heterogeneous and the zhi-zhuang departments well. Later on, these two departments at Mingde University became even worse, notorious and a laughingstock among many of his old friends.”
Fang Ranran clicked her tongue, looking displeased, “Originally, he wanted me to manage the university and take over its operations step by step after I graduated, but I don’t have the patience to teach students.
The truth is, the zhi-zhuang department in Mingde University struggles because it lacks fame and results. The subsidies from the education bureau are minimal, and the teachers are subpar. Once I lead Mingde University to a good position in the martial arts league, our zhi-zhuang department’s reputation will be enhanced. With my uncle’s management skills, it will certainly rise quickly.”@@@@

Fang Ranran then laughed and patted the surgical pod, “Guan Biran was right, I am indeed impatient. So don’t take my words to heart, Lin Rui you have already been very impressive, super amazing, far beyond my expectations!
I initially thought it would take at least three years to reach the stage of the martial arts championship. Now with you, I estimate it could be achieved within two years. That’s all for today. Knowing you want to come out, I’ll leave first. Tsk! What are you, a big man, still embarrassed about?”
Lin Rui watched her push the door open and leave, then finally pressed the button inside the surgical pod and stepped out.
The very conditions for these two contracts to take effect demonstrated Tianlan Group’s sincerity.
The brokerage of Tianlan Group had to provide a signing bonus of 25 million Federal dollars after their graduation for the letter of intent contract to be legally binding.
Of course, there was also a penalty for breach of contract; for the two siblings, one penalty was 150 million and the other was 380 million, while the brokerage’s penalty was much less—if they failed to provide the signing bonus, paying 2.5 million would suffice to dissolve the agreement.
“Alright!” Guan Biran smiled and glanced at the electronic contract’s signatures, then ended the video projection, “Congratulations to you both on joining our Tianlan Group. It is our honor.”
Yu Feicui also stood up saying, “I will go to the administration office at the school right now to handle Lin Xi’s transfer procedures, and Lin Xi’s room will be next to yours, Lin Rui. Please take her there. If you’re missing anything, you can call the logistics department directly, and they will arrange everything as soon as possible. Your meals will be handled by the logistics department as well, I suggest not going to the cafeteria. To achieve the optimal training effect, diet must also be managed.”
In addition, we will arrange for a top gold-medal martial arts instructor for Lin Xi as soon as possible, and she can also use all the training equipment in our martial arts club.”
At that moment, Lin Xi suddenly interjected, “Sister Feicui, can I have a small home computer? Preferably the Tianyan Model Three that can play large virtual games.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Feicui casually made a call, “Okay, I’ll have them arrange it. We don’t have the Tianyan Model Three, only the Tianyan Model Nine. But I must warn you, Lin Xi, do not let this disrupt your martial arts practice, or else I might have to confiscate it.”
The computing power of the Tianyan Model Nine was very high, comparable to the standard of a mid-sized home supercomputer, beloved by many gaming enthusiasts.
In fact, even if Lin Xi hadn’t mentioned it, the martial arts club had already reserved a mid-sized home supercomputer for each of the team member’s rooms, which Fang Ranran had already sponsored nine units of.
The computational power of the mid-sized home supercomputer, combined with the practical virtual terminals, was meant to provide excellent training effects in virtual actual combat settings.
Lin Rui felt a bit puzzled, as Lin Xi was actually interested in large virtual games?
He soon realized that since they had never had the financial means to own a home supercomputer, Lin Xi, despite her interest, wouldn’t have shown it before.
He then took Lin Xi from Yu Feicui’s office to tour the martial arts club’s competition team club.
All along the way, Lin Xi looked around curiously like a little explorer. She had heard that Fang Ranran had spent over two hundred million Federal dollars on these four floors alone, and she was equally astonished.
Lin Xi had heard from Lin Rui about the luxury of Mingde University’s martial arts club before, but seeing it in person truly surpassed hearsay.
Just as Lin Rui was leading Lin Xi towards the indoor activity area, a long-haired young man came out.
It was the new member of the martial arts club, Lu Fang, who brightened up upon seeing Lin Rui, “Lin Rui, you came just in time. You’ve implanted the meridian wheels, right? Dare you have a bout with me?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Rui couldn’t help frowning.
