Lin Yi didn't think wrong, because he had already remembered that he was taken care of by this old classmate when he went to Communication University for promotion at the end of last year, and he promised to leave his first interview to her at that time.
"Did you see that report in Youth Daily?"
"Of course, you are now a role model for young people."
"Youth Daily" is a high-level media with low visibility. Although it is called this, I have never heard of any young people paying attention to it. I didn't expect Feng Wenqian to find out about it.
"It's not what I saw. A classmate found out about it and thought that I helped you promote that takeout website. There are still many people in the school ordering your takeout, and then they showed it to me."
"At first I thought it might be the same name, right? But after reading a paragraph, I found that the school matches it, and the name of your website also matches, so I am finally sure that the person in the report is you."
As expected of the Communication University, the news it pays attention to is quite broad.
Lin Yi defended himself: "This interview was conducted by me and Zhang Xuhao of Are You Hungry together? It shouldn't be considered my exclusive interview, right?"
"Ha ha!"
Feng Wenqian didn't talk about it with him. After all, she didn't really come to accuse him, she was just joking.
"I saw that your event was really good. Many classmates around me have placed orders to support me. Also, my roommate really wants to get to know you after knowing that you are my high school classmate. How about I introduce you to Boss Lin?"
Introduction? She’s a beauty.”
Lin Yi replied casually: "It's enough for me to know you, the beauty from Communication University."
Feng Wenqian did not take his teasing seriously. She heard Lin Yi talking to Zhang Jiaqi about Gu Caiwei at the Linzhong reunion last year.
"Classmate Lin Yi, I feel like I can't keep up with your progress now. In less than a year, you've already been on the Youth Daily. After I finish my four years of college, aren't you going to be on Forbes?"
Lin Yi does not regard being on Forbes as his goal, but if his plan is successfully completed, being on that list will only be natural.
"Thank you for your kind words."
Lin Yi was grateful for Feng Wenqian's help at that time, so he said that his previous promise was still valid: "Whether you are in Forbes or not by then, you can come to me at any time to get your interview."
The two people on Feng Wenqian's side talked and laughed for a while, but Lin Yi found that he still underestimated the impact of this incident.
After the chat, he went to read it himself. He knew that no one cares about print media these days, so the news was posted online at the same time.
This Youth Daily article is actually about the main theme, so it has been reprinted by some mainstream media in the Youth League committee system in various places.
So that afternoon, the link to this news was suddenly dropped from Lin Yi’s high school WeChat group, and the following was a surprising sentence:
"Holy shit, is this Lin Yi?"
When Lin Yi first entered school last year, there were still many senior brothers and sisters using Fetion because it was free, but such an unscientific product was quickly eliminated by Goose Factory. It is now May 2013, and his various social media
All relationships have been transferred to WeChat.
The most lively time for the high school classmate group was during the summer vacation just after graduation. It was still a QQ group, and everyone chatted almost every day, and often met as friends.
After each entered university, the conversation gradually became less frequent. Now in the second semester of the freshman year, no one has spoken for a long time, until the news broke.
"@林一."
"@林一."
"@林一."
Everyone in the row was calling Lin Yi to come out and clarify.
Or confirm.
He was still busy at work when this happened, and he didn't see it until some time later. At that time, everyone couldn't wait for his reply and had already started talking among themselves.
Some people don't believe it and find it difficult to associate their high school classmates with such "youth role models" who can appear in newspapers.
"It should be the same name, right? Lin Yi's name is quite common, and it happens to have the same name as a Singaporean male singer."
"impossible!"
Someone immediately objected, "The name is right, the school is right, and the grade is right. How can there be so many coincidences in the world!"
"I haven't heard that Lin Yi started a business. Has anyone contacted him recently? Can you tell me?"
Everyone held different opinions and had different opinions, and in the end nothing could be discussed.
In fact, there are still a few people in the group who know the truth, such as Lao Xiong, Feng Wenqian, and Zhang Jiaqi are also in this group, but these people are silent, even those who met him in Jiangcheng not long ago.
Jiang Zixuan didn't say anything either.
By the way, there is also Gu Caiwei, but she has never spoken in the group before, she is almost like a zombie account.
After Lin Yi saw it, he thought about it and thought that he might be unable to attend class reunions like Gu Caiwei in the future. After all, no one wants to be treated like a gorilla in the zoo.
However, even if it is true that Lao Xiong will be asked to check out on his behalf every time in the future, there is no need to pretend to be silent in the group from now on, as that would be a bit too much.
"Ahem."
He just made a splash, and sure enough, a bunch of divers exploded. This group of people had been having a heated discussion before, and now they finally caught the real owner.
"@林一, is that you Lin Yi?"
"@林一, tell the truth, be lenient if you confess, and be lenient if you resist!"
Lin Yi ignored their overreaction and threw out an explanation as he thought:
"I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person, but now that everyone has seen it, I will stop pretending and show my cards!"
"That's right, the protagonist in this report is just a high school classmate who will become a role model for you young people in the future."
Of course, Lin Yi didn't want to show off in front of his high school classmates, that would be really boring. He wanted to make a joke and explain the matter, so that he wouldn't have to explain anything that would allow him to dive safely.
"Fuck!"
Although many people had categorically concluded that it was Lin Yi they knew, I was still very surprised after admitting it.
There are indeed many top students in Linzhong. If you want to say that it is not unusual to get admitted to a T or P university, who doesn't know a few of the top 2 classmates?
But this is the first time I heard about someone starting a business in college, and it was mentioned in such media.
"I ordered from that random takeout website in school, but I didn't know it was you. Can you give me a discount..."
"Damn it, I saw on the home page of the website that the cumulative orders for the event so far have exceeded 500,000. Will you really donate 500,000 by then..."
Of course there were a lot of questions in the group. Lin Yi picked a few and simply answered them. Then he didn't waste too much time on them and left with the excuse of busy work, leaving the already boiling class group to continue.
The discussion goes on and on.
After finishing the matter, Lin Yi thought about the feeling just now. Don't say that although he didn't mean to show off, it was quite satisfying to see their fussing reaction.
Finally, he received a message from his long-lost head teacher, Lao Zhao: "Whenever you plan to go back to school, you can contact me in advance."
It turns out that Lao Zhao is also a screen-peeping monster.
