Chapter 240 - 240 Exemption, I'll Go To Shanghai!
240 Exemption, I’ll Go To Shanghai!
Gather Sift Takeaway was developing rapidly. There were mountains of things to do in the company. Everyone wished they did not need to eat nor sleep and fight at their posts. They hated that there were only 24 hours a day. How could they have the energy to split up to study?
However, their school was so studious that they had to s.n.a.t.c.h seats in the library.
Luo Feng had considered this and thickened his skin to ask for Zishan’s connections and continue to hire Cui Kun and his team.
“Actually, you don’t have to be so anxious. I’ve already begun to look for someone in Shanghai,” Luo Feng said.
“The people from Shanghai are all newbies. Can you be at ease?” Xie Yan asked.
Father Xie was still looking for his son fiercely in the corridor, but Xie Yan said firmly, “Luo Feng, let me drop out of school. If I drop out, I’ll go to Shanghai.It’s very easy for something to happen if there is no one from the old team bringing the new team along.”
Luo Feng fell silent. He could not deny that Xie Yan was right.
No matter who it was, they had never worked at Gather Sift Takeaway. They lacked experience in this aspect. If they were to establish a company headquarters, it would be similar to a paper house. Not to mention that there were many problems, they might not even be qualified for the basic framework.
Xie Yan was different. Gather Sift Takeaway could be said to be half his and half Luo Feng’s. It could even be said that what Xie Yan supported was the framework. He was more familiar with the company’s internal situation than Luo Feng.
He would be able to take fewer detours if he went to Shanghai to take charge of the overall situation.
Luo Feng whispered, “Actually, I should be the one going.”
Luo Feng was the one who made the decision to move the headquarters to Shanghai after all. He was the one who chose the office to recruit talents like Cui Kun. He needed someone to go to Shanghai to watch over him.
He had also been thinking about this recently. He did not expect Xie Yan to bring it up first.
Xie Yan looked straight at Luo Feng and said, “Luo Feng, let me go. Gather Sift Takeaway is my dream. It’s mostly your credit that I can get to where I am today. I also want to do something for the company. Come to think of it, isn’t it just to help you take care of this obstacle when you don’t have time?”
In his heart, most of the company’s funds were provided by Luo Feng. It was equivalent to Luo Feng using money to support the company.
Most of the strategic routes were also set by Luo Feng. What Xie Yan could do was to implement them firmly.
Luo Feng looked into Xie Yan’s eyes and knew that he did not request to drop out on a whim. Xie Yan really planned to sacrifice his educational background and do well with his high school diploma in exchange for the stable development of the company.
Everyone could say that the company’s future would definitely be bright, but Xie Yan’s ten-odd years of studying would definitely be wasted. He was really prepared to go all out and dedicate everything to the company!
Knock, knock-
There was a knock on the dormitory door.
Xie Yan was caught off guard and opened the door obediently. He saw Father Xie standing at the door.
“Dad… Dad!” Xie Yan was so frightened that his soul left his body and he hid behind Luo Feng.
Everyone saw that Father Xie was still holding the stool in his hand and they all blocked in front of him, preparing to persuade him. Father Xie was so angry when he saw Xie Yan that he almost exploded. If not for Yang Bo and the others blocking in the middle, the stool might have already hit Xie Yan.
“Uncle, the fault of this matter is mine.” Luo Feng stood up and said, “I’m the Chairman of Gather Sift Takeaway. If the company needs anything, I should be the first to stand up. If you want to blame someone, blame me.”
Father Xie was stunned.
Xie Yan was anxious and hurriedly said, “It’s none of Luo Feng’s business. Dropping out of school was my own idea. I’ve already applied to the counselor!”
Father Xie looked at the two of them fighting for responsibility. Why did he feel like he was a big villain? Xie Yan looked like he was clearly very afraid, but he could bravely stand up and say his thoughts. Even though it was very infuriating, he had indeed grown a lot more than before.
He was silent for a moment before saying, “Luo Feng, I’m not an unreasonable person, but as a father, I am really…”
Really afraid!
Of course, Luo Feng understood that Father Xie was afraid that Xie Yan would be impulsive and choose the wrong path and have nothing to fall back on. Even if Gather Sift Takeaway succeeded in the future, Xie Yan would have to hold on to his high school diploma and waste more than ten years of hard work.
“I understand.” Luo Feng paused. “Uncle, Xie Yan does not need to drop out. I’ll go to Shanghai!”
Xie Yan’s eyes widened. “You want to drop out?”
Ai Tingya also became nervous and looked at Luo Feng worriedly.
“What are you guys thinking?” Luo Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. “My mother will chop me up if I drop out. I want to be exempted!”
The corners of Yang Bo’s mouth twitched unconsciously. “Do you know how abnormal the exemption conditions in our school are?”
It was really not that Yang Bo wanted to pour cold water on him regardless of the occasion, but the conditions for exemption at Oxford University were very harsh. The rule was that students who applied for exemption were only allowed to not go to cla.s.s after pa.s.sing the school test.
Universities were free, and freedom needed to be replaced with ability.
There were only two situations that could pa.s.s the application. One was that he had failed the course last semester and the student needed to retake it. However, there were corresponding courses to attend this semester. If the two sides conflicted, he could apply for retake and be exempt from the course. Half of the applications would pa.s.s.
The other was that if a student self-learned and pa.s.sed this course, they could also apply for exemption. However, the application had to be approved by the Faculty and the professor.
Typically, very few people would apply for an exemption through this method. Luo Feng and the others had a senior from the Mathematics Department last year. He fell into the hands of Professor Vincent and still had the courage to apply for an exemption from advanced algebra.
He taught himself during the summer vacation and handed in the application form confidently.
A question from Professor Vincent came.
The senior worked on the question until he cried bitterly. In the end, he took back the application form dejectedly.
Even though Professor Vincent was not the one who taught Luo Feng’s cla.s.s mathematics this year, Professor Jing was also a serious person. Moreover, Luo Feng was Professor Vincent’s focus during the last final exam. He definitely would not allow Luo Feng to apply for exemption so easily.
Other than advanced mathematics, there were other courses. Luo Feng had to apply for at least two-thirds of the courses to be exempt from them before he could go to Shanghai. There were so many courses that even the Faculty did not dare to agree to, let alone the teacher.
Yang Bo thought for a moment. “If you really want to run a company, why don’t you apply for a leave of absence? You can come back and continue your cla.s.s after your company stabilizes.”
Luo Feng wanted to do this too, but his parents would definitely not agree. Their reaction would definitely be even more agitated than Father Xie’s.
In their eyes, a student’s duty was to stay in school and study hard after all. Everything else was considered fooling around. If they found out that Luo Feng had taken a leave of absence and delayed his graduation, Father and Mother Luo would immediately rush to the school even if they were traveling in Utopia.
“I can’t delay my graduation.” Luo Feng smiled helplessly.
Yang Bo thought about it and agreed. He might also obtain a dual beating if he asked his parents to take a leave of absence from school. This matter was really not so easy to deal with!
