CHAPTER 1877: CHAPTER 982: EVENLY MATCHED, OUTCOME UNCERTAIN

"Principal Ding, this Baxi team is really tough to beat. On my way to Los Angeles, I watched a replay of the match between Baxi and the German Tank Team. Baxi has essentially completed its transformation into a top-tier team, and this time they’re aiming for the championship of the America-Canada-Mexico World Cup."

Principal Xu Dongcheng, sitting next to Ding Yue, started chatting and analyzing before the match began.

"Mmm, mmm."

Ding Yue nodded slightly and said calmly, "Baxi is indeed very strong, not easy to beat."

"Then why do you seem so calm, Principal Ding? Aren’t you nervous at all?" Principal Xu Dongcheng asked.

"What’s the use of being nervous? Our national team has already made it to the top eight, which basically means we’ve completed our mission for this year’s America-Canada-Mexico World Cup. So even if they lose this match, it’s fine. I’ve already told them to just give it their all."

Ding Yue shrugged, still speaking with great calmness.

Instead of treating this match as something so important, it’s better to take it lightly, stay calm. This way, even if we lose the match, the disappointment won’t be as intense. And if we win, it would be a pleasant surprise. Why not enjoy it?

"Makes sense."

Upon hearing this, Principal Xu Dongcheng nodded repeatedly and praised, "Principal Ding, your mindset is really impressive."

"Hahahaha."

Ding Yue laughed heartily, then turned to look at Principal Xu Dongcheng and asked, "By the way, Principal Xu, what have you been busy with this summer?"

"Isn’t it all about responding to the Ministry of Education’s call, encouraging us private universities to learn from your Mist City Arts and Science University’s strengths? On top of that, our Westlight University and your Mist City Arts and Science University have indeed engaged in a lot of educational collaborations within various academic departments. Suddenly, the workload increased, and the departments that need investment also grew, making things quite busy."

Principal Xu Dongcheng replied with a sigh, "But it’s good as well. Watching our Westlight University following you and progressing step by step makes me happy."

"Being busy is good, being busy is good indeed. Our Mist City Arts and Science University is not everything among domestic private universities. Your Westlight University and some other private universities are also very important."

Ding Yue nodded and said, "Principal Xu, your daughter Mei Jia has been doing tremendously well in entrepreneurship these past two years. At Paris Fashion Week, she’s already made a name for herself. Now, under Feiyue Group, the Oriental style brand she’s created is rising in fame, and the future prospects are limitless."

"Hahahaha, isn’t it all thanks to Mist City Arts and Science University’s education and guidance?"

Principal Xu Dongcheng laughed, his smile full of pride, after all, it’s his own daughter. How could a father not be pleased with her achievements?

"I’ve tried that Oriental style brand; it’s truly beautiful, with a classic Oriental beauty."

Lin Zhirou, on the side, praised Xu Meijia’s Oriental style brand.

"Even Queen Lin has such high praise?"

Xu Dongcheng exclaimed in surprise.

At this point, Ding Yue smiled and said to Principal Xu Dongcheng, "Principal Xu, don’t you know? Our Queen Lin is the spokesperson for the Oriental style brand created by Mei Jia."

"Spokesperson? Why haven’t I seen any corresponding endorsement ads?"

Principal Xu Dongcheng asked with some confusion.

"My endorsement contract with Mei Jia’s Oriental style brand doesn’t take effect until the end of this year. This means, starting from the end of this year, I’ll officially endorse this Oriental style brand, hoping to create a fashion brand belonging to our Orient."

Lin Zhirou said with a smile.

Currently, most of the world’s renowned fashion brands are overseas, like LV and the like. It’s really tough for domestic brands to make a mark.

This time, the domestic route is an Oriental-style brand, innovating new Oriental styles based on traditional ones, aligning with contemporary fashion to create our own fashion brand.

Such a fashion brand can encompass clothing, cosmetics, luxury watches, and various fashion categories. As long as you create a good brand with good quality, it’s possible to compete in the international market with those global fashion brands.

"That’s really wonderful. Mei Jia, ever since she was little, loved designing these things."

Xu Dongcheng felt even prouder.

Thinking of his precious daughter being able to create the first domestic fashion brand, the smile of an old father filled his heart even more.

As Ding Yue, Principal Xu Dongcheng, and Lin Zhirou chatted about the Oriental-style fashion brand, the match on the field was about to begin.

The players from both sides took to the field.

The Baxi players seemed to be in excellent form today because they had just defeated the German Tank Team in the last knockout game, avenging twelve years of humiliation. At this moment, their fighting spirit had reached a peak.

Coupled with the fact that Baxi’s team is naturally very strong, this young team, in their late twenties to thirty years old, is already one of the top-tier teams in the world.

As for the national team.

Ding Yue could tell that the national team’s players were quite relaxed, not intimidated by facing a strong opponent like Baxi. Principal Ding had already told them to give it their all in this match and not to carry any mental burden.
