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

Chapter 453: Focus on Internal Unity

"You must try your best and never be defeated, otherwise my secret weapon will not be able to appear." Li Yuqing looked up, staring at the four selected people, like a female general preparing to launch a military parade.

"..."

The four of them turned their heads at the same time, choosing to ignore the crazy woman in front of them.

The next contest was between the University of Tasmania and La Trobe University, with the topic of the debate being whether international students should prioritize subject rankings or school reputation.

Proponent’s view: International students should give priority to schools with high professional rankings, because professional strength will directly affect future career development.

Opposing viewpoint: The reputation of a school is equally important because it represents the overall level and resources of the school and can provide a broader platform for international students.

This question is evenly split, with almost the same number of people supporting the affirmative and negative views.

Some universities may not be well-known internationally, but they are ranked among the best in a particular field. Therefore, if students judge a school based on its reputation, they may ignore schools that are highly competitive in their field and suitable for their development.

"Of course you have to choose a school that matches your major."

"I don't think so. When recruiting now, most companies only look at which school you graduated from. They don't know which school has the best majors, they only care about reputation."

“It’s true that the reputation of a school is often a factor that cannot be ignored in the job market,” another student chimed in. “But I don’t think that means we should completely ignore the ranking of a major. Reputation is important, but if the major you studied is not popular in the market, or the school is not strong in that field, then even if you graduated from a prestigious school, you may still encounter obstacles in your job search.”

"Moreover, in the long run, professional strength often determines a person's career development more than the reputation of the school." Another student added, "For example, some industries have very high requirements for professional skills. If you don't have a solid professional foundation, the reputation of the school alone is far from enough. Schools with high professional rankings usually have better faculty and teaching resources in the field, and can provide students with better learning and development opportunities."

"However, famous schools often mean more resources and opportunities." Another student refuted, "For example, famous schools have larger alumni networks and can provide students with more career guidance and help. At the same time, the brand effect of famous schools also makes it easier for students to stand out when looking for jobs."

There seems to be no absolute answer to this question, and everyone is expressing some opinions that are beneficial to them.

Soon, La Trobe University won the game, becoming the first university to win the game as the opposing team today.

Among the more than 40 universities in Australia, some schools have relatively few Chinese students, and the schools attach different importance to the international student debate competition, so not all schools participated in this event. Therefore, only more than 30 universities were present today.

"Why didn't President Lin call Vice President Chen when she was discussing with us just now?"

"Maybe he's already been notified. After all, he's the vice president, and he should have discussed it with the president in advance."

"Why do I feel like some of the school representatives are smiling so strangely?"

"do not know."

"What's there to guess? As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain. There must be some conflict between these two. I just saw President Lin pull representatives from several schools aside. I guess they were discussing something shameful."

"Oh my god, you have such a dark heart. Why do you always think about this kind of thing? You old bastard, if we become opponents later, are you going to stir up trouble?"

"How could that be? You're overthinking it. We were all high school classmates. How could I attack one of my own people?"

Representatives from several schools gathered together and chatted in the audience. They had a good relationship. Although they went to different schools after graduating from high school, they always maintained close contact.

Before the debate, Chen Xi's speech made some people vaguely aware of the subtle relationship between him and Lin Xi.

These people are now waiting to see what kind of sparks the two will create. "What's going on between you and Lin Xi?" Li Xin, who was sitting next to Chen Xi, suddenly spoke up. He had just switched seats with someone just to chat with Chen Xi.

"What could be going on?"

"Stop pretending. He changed the topic at the last minute and we didn't even receive any notification. It's obvious that he was trying to cause trouble on purpose."

"You're overthinking it. Our Young Returnees Association is a united big family. How could there be a conflict between the president and vice president?"

"Come on, you suddenly asked me to go on stage, aren't you afraid that I will lose on purpose and embarrass you in front of Lin Xi?"

"If you want to be embarrassed, it should be you. Why would you drag me into this?"

"What do you mean? I don't have a position in the association, so no one would care if I lose."

"Will you embarrass yourself in front of her?"

After Chen Xi finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Xinyi who was not far away.

"You did it on purpose. No wonder you suddenly let me play and left Xinyi behind." Li Xin understood instantly. His brows were furrowed, his hands crossed in front of his chest, and a gloomy expression appeared on his face.

"So, you have to give it your all. I'm counting on you."

"..."

Li Xin was completely speechless by Chen Xi and could only sit there and continue watching the debate on the stage.

In the audience, Linxi was holding a cell phone and sending text messages non-stop.

"President Lin, can those who performed well in the debate this time really get jobs in those big companies when they return to China?"

"Yes, my major is not suitable, can I get in?"

The representatives who were previously dragged by Lin Xi to "exchange" asked again. They were very worried. If Lin Xi regretted it at that time, they would offend Chen Xi again, which would be a loss.

"There are vacancies in several large Internet companies such as Aba Aba right now. After you graduate and return to China, I will do my best to arrange job opportunities for you. Professionalism is not a problem. Those domestic companies basically require you to start from scratch after entering. The most important thing to get a good job in China is connections. Your excellent grades are a plus. How can you not get in?" Lin Xi put down her phone and answered with a firm and confident tone.

"But...will this make the vice president look at us with tinted glasses in the future?"

"What are you thinking about? Do you want to be a fence-sitter?"

As soon as one representative spoke, he was stopped by another person. The former was the school representative who had just been pulled over and was still a little wavering.

"Well, everyone, do you have some misunderstandings about me? The Young Returnees Association is a group that focuses on unity and harmony. Don't always speculate about some illusory things. I just hope to use this opportunity to test our vice president's ability to respond and see if he can make wise decisions at critical moments. After all, our association may face various challenges and crises in the future development process, and I would like to take this opportunity to observe in advance..." Lin Xi said righteously.
