I confess, I am the Mr. Richest-Chapter 276: Graduated from the World’s Top-Ranked University, Looking Down on Chu Chen?

Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Graduated from the World’s Top-Ranked University, Looking Down on Chu Chen?

The university professors were divided into four ranks: assistant, lecturer, associate professor, professor.

Among them, assistant was the lowest, professor the highest.

This time, what Verino International University recruited were mostly assistants.

After a series of procedures, Chu Chen arrived at the site of the Music School interview.

To demonstrate Verino International University’s fairness and justice, the recruitment was held in an exceptionally large conference hall.

In the front row sat the interviewers, while behind them were all the interviewees.

The interview process was visible to everyone, which meant there could be no predetermined outcomes.

As one of the top three elite universities in Shanghai, Verino’s reputation was quite good.

With Chu Chen’s arrival, there was a significant stir among the candidates.

Most of the interviewees for the Music School were involved in music and had high aesthetic and temperamental standards, regardless of gender.

Yet the moment Chu Chen appeared, he became the center of attention.

There was no helping it; Chu Chen was simply too handsome.

His appearance immediately drew the eye of countless beauties.

Some even walked over warmly to strike up a conversation with Chu Chen.

Knowing little about this recruitment, Chu Chen began chatting with these girls, inquiring about the interview details.

Beside him, the male candidates were extremely envious and jealous, as if they’d swallowed a few pounds of lemons.

They considered themselves above average in looks and demeanor.

Typically, they were the focus of attention wherever they went, pursued by numerous girls.

But with Chu Chen’s arrival, their spotlight was easily stolen by him.

They became the supporting cast, the backdrop.

These male candidates all felt indignant, unable to bear it, absolutely couldn’t bear it!

Wasn’t he just a bit... more handsome than them?

So what!

These girls who cared only about looks, hmph.

Once, they had quite a favorable view of a "looks-based society," as it benefited them.

But now, they sensed a strong malice!

A young, refined man stood up.

He wanted to take Chu Chen down a peg.

"Friend, are you here for the interview too?"

The young man inquired.

His name was Pan Lingqiu, and he also shared the surname Pan, considering himself on par with the most famous ancient beauty, Pan An.

But now, he felt his status was under serious threat.

"Yeah."

Chu Chen nodded.

"The recruitment here is very strict. Even as an Eastman Music School graduate, I’m not confident I’ll land the assistant position," Pan Lingqiu said, shaking his head.

Eastman Music School?

All the candidates turned their gaze toward Pan Lingqiu.

Eastman Music School was universally recognized as the top music academy, unrivaled in the world.

Eastman had held the top spot in the u.s.news rankings for many years.

Truly the number one music university in the world!

"You actually graduated from Eastman Music School?"

"My God, that’s the mecca for music students!"

"I dream of going to Eastman Music School, but my skills are far from sufficient."

Everyone murmured quietly, immensely surprised.

Several female candidates couldn’t help but shift their admiring gaze from Chu Chen to Pan Lingqiu.

"Brother, you’re amazing!"

"Impressive."

Someone complimented Pan Lingqiu, as graduating from the world’s top music school was truly remarkable!

"Not at all, not at all."

Even though Pan Lingqiu wore a bright smile, he humbly replied.

This scene was precisely the effect he wanted.

Graduating from Eastman Music School was his greatest asset!

"I wonder which university you’re from, friend?"

Pan Lingqiu asked with ill intentions.

"Jiangzhou University."

Chu Chen replied.

Jiangzhou University?

Once again, everyone was stunned, shocked.

Earlier, they were amazed because Pan Lingqiu was impressive, having graduated from Eastman Music School.

Now they were shocked because Chu Chen was from Jiangzhou University?!

What a letdown!

"I was wondering, and it turns out you’re from a second-rate school?!"

"Hilarious, who gave him the courage to apply here?!"

"He must be out of his mind."

After Chu Chen’s answer, those male candidates sneered with disdain.

Even the few female candidates distanced themselves slightly from Chu Chen, expressing their rejection.

Most of the applicants present were from prestigious foreign universities or music academies.

How dare you, a graduate from a second-tier local university, compete with us; aren’t you overestimating yourself!

How can domestic universities compare to overseas ones?!

"Friend, your degree..."

Pan Lingqiu said disdainfully.

"It’s really too low, I’m embarrassed to even mention it."

"Friend, wanting to be an assistant instructor at Verino International University is a pipe dream."

"Applying for an assistant? No, I’m applying for a professor."

Chu Chen answered seriously.

Being merely a professor did not require him to pull strings.

With his ability, it was a piece of cake.

Just a matter of playing a piano piece.

Applying for a professor position?!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

You’re applying for a professor position?!

Are you crazy!

*Cough cough cough.*

Pan Lingqiu started coughing, taken aback by Chu Chen’s "antics."

"You’re applying for a professor position? Why not say you’re applying to be the principal?" Pan Lingqiu questioned Chu Chen.

Chu Chen shrugged helplessly and casually replied,

"It’s not impossible."

Of course, he had another sentence in mind: But the system’s task was to experience a professor’s life, not a principal’s life.

The system was top secret, so Chu Chen would not say that last sentence.

It’s not impossible?!

Once again, everyone was stunned by Chu Chen’s statements.

They didn’t know what to say.

You, amazing, truly amazing!

Do people no longer bother with any basis when bragging or showing off?

With your education and age, you aspire to be a professor?

They’d met people thicker-skinned than a city wall, but never someone "shameless" like Chu Chen!

After hearing what Chu Chen said, the few female interviewees standing next to him left in quick succession.

"What a pity, someone so handsome yet such a fool."

"Heaven is indeed fair, giving him stunning looks but taking his brains away."

"So he’s really a madman, getting me all worked up for nothing, thinking my prince charming had come."

These female candidates couldn’t help but grumble, showing their disdain for Chu Chen.

"Brother, a brain is a good thing, don’t lose it."

Pan Lingqiu said sarcastically to Chu Chen.

"Pan Lingqiu."

At that moment, the interviewer’s voice came.

Pan Lingqiu quickly stepped forward for his interview, and a dozen minutes later, he returned with his head held high.

He succeeded in the interview and smoothly became an assistant here.

After coming over, Pan Lingqiu looked at Chu Chen with great pride, full of provocation.
