Chapter 947 Here to Poach Talent
Qiao Nan frowned, revealing her reluctance. “Is this how it works in other clubs as well?” Did they look for sponsors? Was money that important?
“Of course!” The female vice president rushed to speak steadfastly before the president. “If you don’t believe us, you can ask around. Whenever the club organizes events, the secretary in the club has to look for sponsors. Our club is relatively new. We have been established for two to three years. But the situation is similar to other clubs. We are not in any way different. Qiao Nan, we trust you. That is why we appoint you secretary of the club. In order for our club to grow and develop, we trust you to make sure that the event will be a huge success.”
The female vice president held in her anger. Their club was a new English club. There was another more established and popular English club at Peking University.
When she was a freshman, the female vice president had wanted to join the established English club. She could not be bothered with the new English club that only had a few members.
The problem was that the female vice president had her aspirations. She felt that she was outstanding and brilliant. Although she was just a freshman, she was more than qualified to be the secretary of the club, and she believed she could work her way up to become the president.
However, the reality was far from what she imagined
She believed she was the prodigy, but there were no discerning eyes who could tell greatness from mediocrity. After joining the club, she was merely an ordinary member.
She would be able to take it lying down if all the freshmen who joined the club were ordinary members. However, her cla.s.smate from the same cla.s.s was appointed secretary.
In the end, the female vice president quit the club. She went through a lot of effort to join the new English club and became the secretary.
In the next two years, she became the vice president as she wished. Unfortunately, until now, the new English Club did not do as well as the established English club.
Right now, the club decided to organize events. The female vice president had taken it lying down for two years. She hoped that she could organize a grand event this year and realize her dreams.
The problem was that if they wanted to organize a successful event, they had to have interesting activities as well as sufficient funds.
No one in the new English club was interested to take up the difficult position of looking for sponsors. Since they did not have enough funds, they could not organize the event. No one had any idea why the female vice president would set her designs on Qiao Nan this year.
The president surmised that it could be due to the thread.
As a man, the president had no need to look it up and he knew that the Land Rover was an expensive car.
According to the official statement of the school, the owner of the Land Rover was Qiao Nan’s elder. Therefore, did it mean that Qiao Nan had ways of securing the funds?
The female vice president’s eyes lit up and she grabbed Qiao Nan’s hand tightly. “Qiao Nan, you must work hard this year to bring enough funds for our club. I believe you can definitely make it. The future of our new English club will depend on the event we organize this time.”
The female vice president was already in her third year. She would have to start her interns.h.i.+p very soon. She would spend most of her time on her interns.h.i.+p when she was in her fourth year.
In other words, this might be the last time the female vice president organized such events.
If the club could not succeed this time, the dream that the female vice president used to have would not come true.
Qiao Nan was fl.u.s.tered from being trusted with such a huge responsibility. “Vice president, d-don’t be too confident in me. I have no confidence at all. I won’t be able to look for sponsors. It is such a difficult task.”
Qiao Nan was not an arrogant person. Although she had zero experience, she knew that this was not an easy task.
Looking for sponsors.h.i.+p?
Apart from studying, the thing that Qiao Nan wanted most in life was money. Unfortunately, in order to study hard, she had no time to work to earn money.
Qiao Nan could not imagine her own self speaking out those words, asking other people to take out their money to fund the club.
“No, others can’t do it, but you can definitely do it. I will no longer be the vice president next year. By then, you will definitely be the vice president of our club!” The female vice president had thought about it. There must be a reason behind the animosity between females.
But this time, the female vice president had put all her stakes on Qiao Nan. She hoped that Qiao Nan could help her realize her dreams in the university.
She had already decided to step down next year. Since both of them were of the same gender, the vice president felt that Qiao Nan was very promising. If Qiao Nan was able to help the club secure funds this year and make the event a success, bringing the new English club to new heights, Qiao Nan would be the biggest hero of the new English club.
It was right for Qiao Nan to take up the position of the vice president once she stepped down. No one would have any objections.
Qiao Nan was not thrilled with the female vice president’s vote of confidence. She had a bitter smile on her face. There was no need to have so much trust in her. She was unworthy of it.
No matter how she refused their offer, Qiao Nan was defenseless under the female vice president’s continuous persuasion and bombardment.
Qiao Nan pulled a long face at the thought of the funds that the vice president requested of her. She felt like crying.
Qiao Nan took a few deep breaths, wanting to concentrate on her studies. Unfortunately, it did not work. At this time, someone squeezed next to Qiao Nan. “Hi, this cla.s.smate over here, can you give up the seat to me?”
Qiao Nan wanted to refuse, but the person who sat next to her got up and left. Qiao Nan sighed to herself. She had been restless after the conversation with the vice president. She thought that the other person was talking to her.
“h.e.l.lo, I heard that you are the secretary of the new English club and you are in charge of fundraising for the event this time, is that right?” The other party was a girl. Her voice was soft, and she sounded like the gentle girls from Jiangnan, the water town. However, her words were not as mild as how she sounded.
Qiao Nan looked up from her book and stared at her with a blank look. “You are…?” She did not know this student. She was not from her cla.s.s and she had not seen her before.
“I am Zou Wenxuan, a third-year student. I am the vice president of the English Club. Nice to meet you. In fact, I have heard of you long ago. You are a provincial top scorer and you are very outstanding. I always thought that I would have the opportunity to meet you in the club. Unexpectedly, you joined another English club and my wish did not come true.” Zou Wenxuan sounded as if she was very disappointed. It was as if Qiao Nan was being heartless for joining the other English club.
When she mentioned the English club, she had to be talking about the established English club.
“Perhaps you have just joined the school and you don’t understand the situation here. Are you interested in joining our club? We are more than welcome to have you.” Zou Wenxuan extended an olive branch to Qiao Nan, hinting to her that she could get in through the back door. “I believe given your abilities, even if you are not the secretary this year, you will get the position next year.”
