Chapter 717: Chapter 717: The difference between a top student and a genius, Miss Si’s Guidance (1)

This time, the medical segment was divided into three groups, each consisting of four members.

Group A was led by Wei Chengyun, the top student of the senior year in the medical school at Great Xia University, a true academic genius.

Group B and Group C were also headed by highly educated medical students, including some with international experience.

Among these twelve, Si Fuqing was hardly noteworthy, merely serving as a decorative background.

Chen Wenxin acknowledged Si Fuqing’s reputation as the Divine Beauty of Great Xia, but he would never consider taking a mere figurehead star seriously.

He was no stranger to the entertainment industry.

Great Xia University was often used as a filming location for various campus dramas.

He was used to seeing stand-ins.

To him, these were stars, not true actors.

How could one expect anything substantial from someone who couldn’t even excel in their primary job?

Chen Wenxin was convinced that a top star like Si Fuqing participating in the reality show “The Birth of an Employee” was not there to learn.

Director Qin paused, his hand holding the cup froze, then he looked at Wan Wenxin and Wu Wanying.

The medical group included two celebrity guests and six top students from the Summer University’s medical faculty. The remaining four were individuals like Bai Jinxu, who had already graduated and entered society.

Although Chen Wenxin and Wu Wanying’s grades were not as high as Wei Chengyun’s, their GPA was still very high, which is why Director Qin decided to place them in the same group with Si Fuqing.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Director Qin knew that Si Fuqing was a magnet for attention; any show with her was bound to be a hit.

She didn’t need extra camera time; she naturally drew all eyes to her.

Initially, Director Qin said nothing.

The assistant director, panicked, insisted, “Miss Si won’t drag the team down. She’s incredibly capable. Remember the last show, ‘Survival 66 Days’? She was the underdog, yet she emerged as the most skilled.”

“Are you referring to ‘Survival 66 Days’?” Wu Wanying interjected, her tone polite yet distant. “These two shows are entirely different. ‘Survival 66 Days’ was more about entertainment, while ‘The Birth of an Employee’ demands higher professional competence. When you say she’s capable, has she published any papers or performed any surgeries?”

“Enough,” Director Qin intervened, calming the assistant director. “You are the main characters. The celebrity guests won’t compete with you for offers. I overlooked your concerns when forming the groups. I’ll switch you to Group B.”

Bai Jinxian was in Group B.

Chen Wenxin breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Director Qin.”

After they left, the assistant director was still anxious: “Director, what about Group A now?”

“No rush,” Director Qin set down his cup, deciding to contact Wei Chengyun to see if he wanted to switch groups.

The assistant director was shocked, “Director, isn’t this pushing Miss Si into a dead end?”

“Aren’t you a fan of hers?” Director Qin gave him a sidelong glance. “Why do you lose faith in her now? If she truly couldn’t handle clinical work, would she choose to stay in the medical group?”

Convinced, the assistant director replied, “I’m just worried she might damage the reputation she’s worked so hard to rebuild and get universally criticized again.”

“Better worry about your own heart,” Director Qin scoffed.

Thirty minutes later, Wei Chengyun arrived from Great Xia University.

At twenty-five, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, he already looked every bit the professional.

“Student Wei, here’s the situation,” Director Qin explained about Chen Wenxin and Wu Wanying’s decision to switch groups. “Would you like to change groups too?”

“No need,” Wei Chengyun responded, his demeanor cool. “It makes no difference.”

“You’re not worried Miss Si might drag you down and cost you an offer?” the assistant director ventured tentatively.

Wei Chengyun looked at him coldly and without emotion, “Isn’t it because you’re incompetent that you can’t lead others?”

Director Qin and the assistant director were at a loss for words.

Was this the difference between a top student and a genius?

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving,” Wei Chengyun nodded slightly. “I’ll take extra care of her during tomorrow’s shooting.”

As Wei Chengyun left, Director Qin turned to the intern profiles, reading Wei’s description: sharp-tongued.

Fair enough.

He has personality.

It seemed Group A was nothing to worry about.

Director Qin instructed the coordinator, “Ask the others who’s willing to be in the same group as Teacher Si.”

After checking, the coordinator reported back, “Neither Teacher Ning Zhi nor Mr. Lu Xingheng have any objections.”

“Then it’s settled. Those four will be a group,” Director Qin nodded, then he instructed, “Please sure to let Teacher Si know.”

Meanwhile, at a café in the city center.

“Miss Bai,” Chen Wenxin extended his hand. “Hello, we’ll be in the same group starting tomorrow.”

Bai Jinxian shook his hand with a smile. “I’ve heard this year’s class from Great Xia University has some impressive students. Seeing is believing. I look forward to our collaboration. Please, have a seat.”
