I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 448 Secret Weapon
In the second half of the class, Madeline seemed to be really angry. She started to lecture on her own and no longer interacted with the students or asked questions like before.

When it came to some controversial topics, she simply ignored the reactions of the students in the audience, as if she was focusing all the attention on her own story.

As for Li Yuqing, she became Madeline's "focus target" and was attacked madly by Madeline's eyes countless times.

"Why is this fat woman staring at me? Whose eyes are bigger? I'm not afraid of you." Li Yuqing muttered softly, and fought back with her eyes without any fear.

Inside the office of the president of Didi University.

"By hosting the Chinese debate competition this time, the school can demonstrate its academic strength and educational quality and attract more outstanding students to apply. The successful hosting of the debate competition can also enhance the school's reputation and gain more attention and recognition in the field of higher education. The school will not directly interfere with this event, but will leave it entirely to the international students to organize it. In view of my limited understanding of other students, I have decided to choose one of you two to serve as the organizer of the event. Please consider carefully who is more suitable to take on this responsibility to ensure that the event can go smoothly." Principal Lisa said a lot of things, and Shen Xinyi and Li Xin in front of them looked at each other at the same time.

"Principal, I think Shen Xinyi can take on this important task." Li Xin gave up his seat without even thinking about it.

"My abilities are limited, but I've thought of someone who is very suitable for this position." Shen Xinyi shook her head and began to recommend another person.

"Who?"

"Chen Xi, he is the vice president of the Young Returnees Association and a student at Didi University. This is a global organization, and most of its members are international students..."

"Okay, you international students can discuss it among yourselves." The principal did not object.

"Xinyi, what's wrong with you? Why did you give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Chen Xi? In the world of architectural design, fame is like wealth. You just need to show up at this event and organize it simply, and your future will be as smooth as a broad road." Li Xin walked out of the principal's office, his heart full of excitement and confusion. He grabbed Shen Xinyi's arm tightly and asked.

Shen Xinyi frowned slightly and gently broke free from Li Xin's hand. She took a deep breath and said slowly: "My ability is limited. This event needs someone with enough influence and appeal to host it. Chen Xi has the highest voice in the group, and this is what everyone wants."

Her explanation seemed reasonable, but Li Xin didn't believe it at all, but he didn't know how to refute it.

At this time, Chen Xi had just finished his class and walked out of the teaching building, surrounded by a group of classmates who were eagerly discussing matters concerning the debate competition.

Seeing this, Shen Xinyi walked over and said, "We just came out of the principal's office. Let's find a place to discuss the debate. I suggested to her that you organize it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the students around him echoed them.

Chen Xi was dumbfounded. It seemed that he had to go this time. Even the principal had come, so it would be difficult to refuse.

Everyone found an empty classroom and sat down, starting to discuss who would participate in the debate.

The discussion began with a self-introduction session, where everyone briefly introduced their majors and areas of expertise.

Most of the people here are unwilling to go up. Most of them come here to watch the fun. Among the rest, some are more Buddhist. Only a few are more active, so it is easier to allocate them.

According to the rules of the debate competition, each team needs four debaters and is allowed to have substitutes.

After considering everyone's attitude and willingness, Chen Xi decided to let those proactive people play as regular team members, while the more indifferent students would serve as substitutes in case of emergency.

"Chen Xi, Chen Xi, let me go on the court! We will definitely kill every enemy without leaving a single piece of armor." Li Yuqing couldn't wait any longer and volunteered to go to the front line.

"Who is this? I haven't even asked to go on stage yet, why are you so impatient?"

"She looks pretty good."

"Be careful with your words. That person is Li Yuqing. She has a sharp tongue. Last time I saw someone flirting with her, he was scolded so badly that he couldn't even raise his head."

"So fierce? Then we have to send her into battle."

"She's so impatient. I don't think it's appropriate for her to participate. A debate requires a calm person."

"Yeah, I'm afraid she'll start a quarrel with someone." "What are you guys mumbling about? I'm such a good student, why can't I go on stage first? You're all cowards, and I'm the one leading the charge, and you're actually jealous of me..."

Li Yuqing slammed the table and started bombarding everyone.

Indeed, Li Yuqing's academic performance is quite good, but she is a little impulsive and is not very suitable for the class.

"Well... why don't you take a look at the situation backstage first? There are several matches anyway. A general like you must be kept until the end. This is called... yes, a secret weapon!" Seeing that the situation on the scene was not very good, Chen Xi immediately spoke to calm Li Yuqing's emotions.

"Chen Xi, you are really good at recognizing a gem. Hehe, I'll listen to you. The secret weapon will be saved for last." Li Yuqing was already overjoyed at this time, and was too lazy to bother with that group of people about what happened before.

She raised her head proudly, thinking about how to win the debate.

"I think it's a wise eye for pigs."

"This woman is a little crazy. She's so fierce one second, and becomes calm the next."

"I originally suggested not to be discharged so early."

When the people around saw this, they all covered their mouths and laughed.

How could they not know that what Chen Xi said just now were all excuses? They didn't expect Li Yuqing to take it seriously. She didn't even understand that these were words of comfort.

As a popular girl in the school, Shen Xinyi was nominated by everyone to go on stage. Seeing this, Li Xin also wanted to sign up, but was stopped by Chen Xi and others.

"There are four of us in total, and only two of us are from the Department of Architecture? You think there are no people from other departments, right?"

"That's right. He always looks cold and doesn't say a word. He is definitely not suitable for a debate."

"Li Xin, you should be a substitute first. If you force yourself to play, it will arouse everyone's emotions." Chen Xi smiled, but looked at Li Xin seriously. After hearing this, Li Xin frowned and turned his head away in dissatisfaction.

The candidates were finalized, and four people including Shen Xinyi were allowed to go on stage first, and others would be added depending on the situation, so that everyone could go up and speak.

Next came the discussion of the topic of the debate.

The topics of debate competitions in general universities are very broad, covering various fields such as society, culture, technology, education, and ethics.

For example, social phenomena and values: Does social media have more benefits or disadvantages on interpersonal relationships? Should cyberbullying be banned? Is modern society overly dependent on technology?

Next, there is the issue of education and employment: Should universities focus more on theoretical education or practical education? Should college students prioritize their interests or remuneration when seeking employment? Should the college entrance examination system be abolished?
Then there is the issue of technology and the future: Is the development of artificial intelligence a blessing or a curse for humanity? Should artificial intelligence have legal rights? Where are the ethical boundaries of gene editing technology (such as CRISPR)?
There are also culture and tradition, ethics and morality, environmental protection and sustainable development, politics and international relations, economic and social policies, etc.

Everyone expressed their opinions and selected a number of topics.

Some have suggested that in terms of culture and tradition, for example, does globalization lead to cultural homogenization?

Should traditional culture be protected from the impact of modern culture?

In modern society, do traditional festivals still have practical significance?

Others choose to discuss old Western topics, such as whether euthanasia should be legalized and whether human activities exacerbate global warming.
Chen Xi was so overwhelmed that he could only ask everyone to write down their ideas and send them to him so that they could read them slowly at home.
