Chapter 85

On the contrary, according to the investigation, Lin Yi was born in a famous impoverished mountainous area in Guizhou Province.

And then came to Shanghai through the college entrance exam more than two years ago.

Compared to Lin Yi being a rich second-generation heir,

his current status was even more attractive to the media.

After all, if the other party were a rich second-generation heir, ordinary people would definitely think it was because they were born well,

with all kinds of entrepreneurial conditions others couldn't even dream of, such as initial startup capital, connections, etc.

Naturally, this kind of success couldn't spark much of a topic.

But Lin Yi was not that.

This was a classic story of a poor kid turning his life around through entrepreneurship.

What kind of story was behind this was worth digging deep into by media personnel.

Thus, a reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" took a photographer and went to Shanghai University of Engineering Science to prepare to interview Lin Yi without notifying the school.

Wanting to obtain first-hand information.

However, the reporter discovered something at Shanghai University of Engineering Science,

which made the reporter very excited.

At first, when the school heard from the security guard that a reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" had come to the school for an interview.

The school was still very happy.

Although the University of Engineering Science was located in Shanghai, in the end, it was only a second-tier university.

In the international metropolis of Shanghai, there were countless schools better than it.

Not to mention Fudan or Jiaotong University, even the nearby Shanghai International Studies University and Shanghai University of International Business and Economics were much stronger than the University of Engineering Science.

Now, a reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" had come to the school for an interview.

As a local school, the administration naturally knew the status of this newspaper in Shanghai.

Although the school didn't know why "Xinmin Evening News" had suddenly arrived, they still accepted the interview.

This was also a form of publicity for the school.

As it turned out, the first thing the reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" did upon entering the school,

was to find a junior student in mechanical automation named Lin Yi.

At that time, the school representative was confused: who was this Lin Yi!

Did he do some good deed that the reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" wanted to interview him for?

As a result, after a series of investigations, this representative.

Discovered that this Lin Yi had already been processed for expulsion by the school a few days ago.

"Processed for expulsion?"

At that time, the reporter had a strange expression.

"Yes, the document says it's because of too many absences and skipping classes!"

The school representative said so,

and then he asked:

"I don't know, Ms. Reporter, what are you looking for this student for?"

Only at this moment, the reporter looked at the school representative in charge of the reception with a strange expression, thinking to herself:

"Are you guys really okay? You directly expelled an entrepreneurial star with infinite potential.

The most important thing is, if according to what Boss Jia of LeEco said, if this student sold Fengyi Tech, it would be 1 billion.

You are discarding such a billionaire; even Tsinghua or Peking University wouldn't be so unwise!"

Of course, these were just the reporter's inner thoughts and were not spoken out loud.

Instead, she already had the news draft in her heart.

Since Lin Yi wasn't at school, the reporter had no interest in staying at the school.

However, before leaving, the reporter casually interviewed a few male students and asked them about Lin Yi.

As a result, these male classmates told them some things about Lin Yi.

For example, selling tea eggs and small commodities in college, setting up a small shop in the dormitory, etc.

At the same time, he often worked part-time off-campus.

And even sent a portion of the money he earned to his parents in the mountains.

With the reporter's interview, the image of a student born in poverty but striving for self-improvement became even more vivid and lively.

As for the school wanting to expel Lin Yi, that was just because Lin Yi had offended a school leader.

As a result, a certain leader abused his power for personal gain, which led to the expulsion.

Otherwise, there were many students in the school who skipped classes; why only expel Lin Yi?

Hearing the account from this fat student surnamed Wang.

The reporter from "Xinmin Evening News" felt that a brilliant headline news story had already been born in her mind.

A student born in poverty but striving for self-improvement,

was suppressed and expelled by a school leader because he offended them.

And the reason for this student's expulsion was actually because of entrepreneurship.

Thus, this student carried the burden forward, and the company he founded shone brightly at the press conference last night.

What a perfect piece of news!

The reporter thought to herself.

Soon, the reporter from "Xinmin Evening News," having obtained first-hand information, left the school.

However, not long after she left, reporters from "East Net" and "Sina" arrived at Shanghai University of Engineering Science.

So many reporters arrived all at once, and they were all looking for the same person.

Even a fool would know that something must have happened.

However, after hearing that Lin Yi had been expelled, these media reporters also conducted interviews at the school just like the reporter from "Xinmin Evening News."

Then they happened to run into a few students who knew the inside story.

Thus, that evening.

"Xinmin Evening News" reported the front-page headline news.

"Entrepreneurial genius worth 1 billion, expelled by school!"

This headline immediately grabbed the readers' attention.

"Our newspaper went to Shanghai University of Engineering Science today,

preparing to interview Mr. Lin Yi, the boss of Fengyi Tech, who released new lithium battery technology last night.

That's right, after our investigation, Mr. Lin Yi is not a rich second-generation heir as some people thought; he was born in the mountainous area of Guizhou Province.

According to our investigation, the mountainous area is a famous impoverished region in Guizhou, with an average annual per capita income of no more than 2,000..."

Next, the newspaper began to introduce how Lin Yi changed his destiny by coming to Shanghai through the college entrance exam.

At the same time, it described how he was different from others during his college years.

When others were playing games or falling in love.

Lin Yi was working part-time under the scorching sun, while transforming his dormitory into a small shop to serve his classmates.

Finally, the newspaper said that Lin Yi used every penny he saved to start a business,

which led to the birth of the enterprise Fengyi Tech.

Of course, the newspaper focused on the school's suppression of Lin Yi over trivial matters and the expulsion decision.

"The author cannot help but ask, what is the purpose of the quality education students receive in school?

Is it to be a well-behaved baby, or a person who can contribute to society?

An entrepreneurial genius like Lin Yi, who directly incubated a 1 billion industry,

had to be expelled because he missed a few classes... This is a matter worth deep reflection...!"
