Chapter 943 Extra Story - Warm Sun in Berkeley

"Director~, what are you staring at~?!"

California, Berkeley College of Arts and Sciences, in the teacher's office, a young teacher asked a middle-aged female teacher wearing glasses.

"You should know this person~?!"

The female teacher moved the laptop, and the scene presented to the young teacher was the scene of Lan Shengli, the head coach of the Clippers and a former Berkeley teacher, being interviewed.

"Of course I know each other~ Although Mr. Bruce left before I arrived in Berkeley, his deeds, especially after becoming the head coach of the NBA, are very influential in the entire Berkeley~ !!"

The young teacher responded.

"At that time, I was still a colleague with him. I thought he was crazy, but now it seems that we may have really underestimated him~"

The female teacher sighed.

"Yeah~, to be able to hold multiple positions in a world-class university like Berkeley, and to be able to switch careers to become a basketball coach, it really makes one's scalp tingle~ It's really scary~!"

The young teacher also sighed.

"However, even such an outstanding person, when he left Berkeley, he seemed a little too bleak~"

The female teacher shook her head and sighed.

"There's no other way~, after all, Mr. Bruce seriously violated many school regulations, and the expulsion was done according to the system~"

The young teacher responded.

"And I also heard that Mr. Wood seems to have provided important clues~ and became an important figure for Mr. Blue to leave Berkeley~"

The young teacher continued to speak in a low voice.

"Don't listen to those rumors, remember~, don't say things that are not conducive to unity~, remember~, remember~!!"

The female teacher's expression became very serious, and she reminded her.

Seeing this, the young teacher immediately nodded his head.

Although today's Lan Shengli has become a very inspirational and legendary story in Berkeley, the beginning of this story, as the female teacher said, was a bit "bleak".

It might have been better if Lan Shengli had resigned voluntarily.

But if there is no 100% certainty, who can take the initiative to quit such a job~? !
That's like ruining your own life with your own hands.

However, Lan Shengli still respects his alma mater, Berkeley.

When reporters asked many times about being expelled from the school, Lan Shengli expressed more gratitude to his alma mater, and did not say much about the rest.

Maybe Lan Shengli just wants to blow away those unpleasant past with the wind.

"Perhaps, as Bruce's former colleague, I can do something for him~"

The female teacher thought to herself and left the office.

While speaking, the female teacher came to the office of the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.

Today's dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences is no longer the silver-haired old professor when Lan Shengli took office.

It was a man in his early 40s who looked like a business elite and had an Asian background.

"Sit down~, what's the matter~?!"

The dean looked at the female teacher and asked.

"I want to talk to you today about someone~, someone who has left Berkeley~"

The female teacher spoke in a serious tone.

"Oh~?!, what kind of legendary figure makes you so interested~?!, I know that you majored in criminal psychology in college~, what's the matter~?!"

asked the dean.

"The person I want to talk about may have indeed "committed a crime" in Berkeley before and got the punishment he deserved, but what we see and hear now makes us understand that maybe we made some mistakes~"

The female teacher responded.

"I don't quite know what you are expressing~ I have a meeting in 15 minutes, let's make a long story short~"

The dean shook his head and responded.

"Victory Blue, you should be familiar with this name~"

Seeing this, the female teacher spoke more bluntly.

"Oh~, I know, it turned out that the teacher of the Chinese Department of the College of Arts and Sciences, a very talented and promising young man, later left here due to some unknown reasons, and now he is the head coach of the NBA, which is quite surprising the ~"

The dean responded.

"Oh~, I see, the crime you just mentioned~ is a metaphor for our Berkeley campus~?!"

The dean suddenly realized again, and asked.

"It's not a metaphor, it's a statement of fact~"

The female teacher responded with a serious expression.

"Perhaps what Bruce did in the last stage of school is not a role model for young teachers, but his lifestyle of daring to pursue ideals and breaking many constraints and prejudices is worth learning for students~"

The female teacher continued.

"So you mean~?!"

The dean frowned and asked.

"I hope that our College of Arts and Sciences can restore the status of an honorary alumni for former teacher Bru, or at least be able to openly recognize his achievements now~"

The female teacher responded.

"That's right, Bruce is indeed a famous figure now, and he may be on the front page of Time Magazine one day, but what I want to let you know is that a university teacher and a basketball coach, these two jobs you It’s impossible to measure which one’s social contribution is greater~, can you understand what I mean~?!”

The dean responded.

"If Bruce had stayed at our Berkeley campus, maybe he would be able to determine greater achievements now, and maybe he could help more students. It is true that the inspirational factors you mentioned are also reasonable, but the restoration of honorary alumni is something that I am afraid of. I don’t think it’s very likely.”

The dean said very firmly.

"In the final analysis, what we encourage is the spirit of pioneering, not just trying to find a way out when you have nowhere to go~ Not everyone can achieve that kind of success after leaving Berkeley~ We must resolutely oppose that kind of Acts that violate the rules and regulations of the school~!"

The dean continued.

"I see~"

Seeing the dean's resolute attitude, the female teacher stopped saying anything.

"But I think there is one thing that can be improved, that is, don't let the name of Victory Bleu become a "forbidden word" in our liberal arts college, in our Berkeley campus. Yes~, we agree with what Bruce has achieved now, and we must also be clear about the risks brought by such an approach~”

The dean continued.

The female teacher listened and nodded.

"If there is a chance in the future, I think I can invite Bruce back to Berkeley, back to our College of Arts and Sciences. As the dean, I will be the first to welcome him back~!!"

The dean continued.

Hearing what the dean said, the female teacher smiled.

Perhaps in Lan Shengli's heart, Berkeley will always be a place full of regret and guilt.

But the warm sun from there has already quietly glowed and heated up, and began to dispel the darkness and haze.
