Chapter 660: Four Couples (Comic Strip)
Innovation and Entrepreneurship Project Management Office.

"Thump...thump thump".

Three hesitant knocks sounded at the door. Zhong Jincheng, dressed neatly, stood at the door, straightened up slightly, lowered his right hand, and swallowed.

He was a little nervous.

He hadn't looked into the "National Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program" in detail; he only knew it was an organization established by the school to encourage students to innovate and start their own businesses.

Zhong Jincheng was interested in this for two reasons: first, a friend had mentioned it for innovation credits; and second, he had seen on a forum that some senior students had earned a lot of unexpected money during their undergraduate years by participating in this.

If the application is successful, the school can provide him with a venue and storefront, as well as some start-up funds. Moreover, college students are a natural consumer group. For some students who want to make a lot of money during their undergraduate studies, the establishment of "Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program" is simply a blessing.

Zhong Jincheng felt that many people in the school had heard of the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program, but most people were too lazy to participate because they were unfamiliar with it, thus missing out on such a good opportunity to improve themselves and make money.

In fact, Zhong Jincheng is also a very lazy person. If he didn't have a certain talent for learning, he thinks he might be working on a factory assembly line with dark circles under his eyes, doing repetitive and monotonous work.

He was an ordinary person, but also a lucky one.

His luckiest thing was meeting Luo Wei.

The office door opened, and Zhong Jincheng looked up. To his surprise, the person standing in front of him was Professor Gongyang, a freshman in medical biology.

"Teacher Gongyang?"

"you are?"

"...oxytocin."

"Oh, oh!" The dashing and handsome Professor Gongyang instantly realized: "My clinical students from last year? Sorry, sorry, my memory is a little bad."

He finished speaking and walked inside with a smile, with Zhong Jincheng following behind.

There was more than just Teacher Gongyang in the office; there were several students filling out forms with pens.

Teacher Gongyang quickly picked up a form labeled "Application Form for Innovation and Entrepreneurship Project" from the table and handed it to Zhong Jincheng. He explained, "Fill out the form. The more detailed you are, the easier it will be to get approved."

Zhong Jincheng took the document but didn't look at it. He glanced at the other students in the office and asked Teacher Gongyang directly about the thing he cared about most, though he lowered his voice.

"Teacher, if the application is approved, how much funding will the school provide?"

"Twenty dollars."

"Huh?" Zhong Jincheng's eyes widened.

"What's wrong? You think it's not enough?" Teacher Gongyang chuckled. "It's not a small amount. We provide the venue and the shop, and we can even hire a contractor to help you with the renovations for free. The school certainly won't cover all the costs for you."

5000 yuan probably wouldn't even buy an ice maker... Zhong Jincheng's expression stiffened. The school really wasn't stingy anymore; he had imagined things to be too simple and too wonderful.

Seeing the expression on Zhong Jincheng's face, Teacher Gongyang smiled and said, "Look at the middle of the table, that's the investor."

Zhong Jincheng looked down and indeed saw the words "investor".

Teacher Gongyang: "If there is insufficient funding, students generally have two options: one is to pay for it themselves, and the other is to contact investors. If a company thinks your project has potential, they will provide you with financial support. However, you definitely have to find it yourself; the school will not help you make contact."

What kind of shop do you want to open?

"Milk tea shop".

"Want to join us?"

"Teacher, are you kidding me? Of course I can't afford the franchise fee..." Zhong Jincheng chuckled awkwardly and ran to an empty table to fill out a form.

He filled in "Big Ben Milk Tea" in the "Application Project" section. Yes, that's his own brand name. Actually, he wanted to name it "Jinwei Milk Tea," but Luo Wei rejected it and came up with a new name for Zhong Jincheng: "Big Ben Milk Tea."

When filling in the "Project Highlights" section, Zhong Jincheng smiled faintly and wrote: "The milk tea cups will feature a series of daily comics created by the proprietress depicting four couples... Incredibly beautiful! Explosively attractive!"

Luo Wei is unemployed and has been feeling down for the past few days. She feels useless that she, a graduate, has to rely on her boyfriend, who hasn't graduated yet, to support her.

So Zhong Jincheng came up with this idea: to find her something to do. Anyway, Luo Wei had loved drawing comics since she was little, and she also had a foundation in drawing and design. As for the content of the comics... Zhong Jincheng planned to take advantage of Lu Yuanqiu. Lu Yuanqiu had a lot of clever ideas, and he had heard that Lu Yuanqiu had always wanted to create something. Wasn't this the opportunity to give him one?
The project leader filled in his own name, while team member Zhong Jincheng wrote down a long list of names: Zheng Yifeng, Liang Jingfeng, Zhang Yang, Song Fenfang, Xu Wenjun, Wei Zhiyu...

Before Zhong Jincheng came to the Innovation Office, they had already made arrangements to register their names with him and earn innovation credits.

Zhong Jincheng didn't care. Since they were all friends, he would help if he could. He even wrote down the uncle's name. Daozhang and Chi Caocao were going to be team members for Xia Yiwanmian, so they weren't on the milk tea shop's list.

Zhong Jincheng finally looked towards the investors. He couldn't possibly ask his family for money, and he wouldn't be able to get any anyway, so he could only... seek help from Liang Jingfeng.

Liang Jingfeng's father wields so much influence in the Lu Group that he might be able to offer some assistance.

After a moment's hesitation, Zhong Jincheng wrote "Lu's Group" directly in the "Investor" column.

Unsuccessful, they become benevolent.

Young Master Liang, please help me!

Zhong Jincheng filled the entire form to the brim, and while the other students in the office were still debating the highlights of the project, he handed the form directly to Teacher Gongyang.

"Writing so fast?" Teacher Gongyang was somewhat surprised.

Zhong Jincheng's gesture of handing over the form with one hand was rather cool. He adjusted his glasses, the lenses gleaming: "My efficiency depends on my determination."

Teacher Gongyang nodded solemnly: "Go for it, Labor Inducer!"

Zhong Jincheng: "..."

"How long will it take to get the results, teacher?"

"Let's wait three, four, five, six, seven, or eight weeks."

"what?"

"Just kidding, maybe a week or two at most."

Zhong Jincheng wanted to punch Gongyang Teacher's smiling, handsome face.

After leaving the office, he sent a message to Lu Yuanqiu.

Zhong Jincheng: I've filled out the form for Dachuang, where's Bai Qingxia? Where are you guys?

Zhong Jincheng: Also, don't forget to send me the eight male and female character designs for the couple comic. I'm waiting to draw the character designs.

"Drip drop~"

Just as Lu Yuanqiu finished telling Bai Qingxia about the secret formula by the lake, his phone beeped.

He subconsciously reached into his pocket, glancing at Bai Qingxia's stunned expression. Knowing that Bai Qingxia was still processing this, Lu Yuanqiu didn't disturb her and took out his phone to check the messages.

Lu Yuanqiu: Let's go tomorrow, we have things to do today.

Zhong Jincheng told Lu Yuanqiu about his idea of ​​creating couple comics on milk tea cups during the winter break. Lu Yuanqiu found it quite novel and agreed with it. He was also happy to provide Luo Wei with creative ideas.

 One more chapter to come.
