December 31.

The end of the year is approaching, the weather in Mist City is getting colder, but in Mist City Arts and Science University, with the upcoming New Year’s Eve Gala, the campus has become heated up.

As an annual grand gala, students at Mist City Arts and Science University would not miss it for the world, and even many netizens across the nation are highly anticipating this New Year’s Eve event.

On a certain website, as well as on various social media platforms, the New Year’s Eve Gala at Mist City Arts and Science University is hailed as one of the most anticipated programs of the year. The expectations and high evaluations from netizens towards the gala are evident.

"Who would have thought that netizens were so looking forward to our Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala?"

"It seems like since last year, our Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala has already gone viral, huh?"

"Wow, this is really great!"

"Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala will always be epic!"

"Will Lin Zhirou be singing this year again?"

"I really want to hear Lin Zhirou sing ’Blue and White Porcelain’, that song is so beautiful, I listen to it on repeat every day."

"Seeing how much everyone loves and looks forward to our Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala, as a part of this university, I am really proud and happy."

"Welcome, brothers and sisters, to watch our Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala on Feiyue Home streaming media platform!"

The students of Mist City Arts and Science University are immensely proud upon learning how popular their New Year’s Eve Gala is.

For the students, this naturally translates into a sense of pride and belonging, and also fosters a sense of solidarity, which can bond all the students of Mist City Arts and Science University, whether they number in the tens or hundreds of thousands, into one strong unit.

This is why Ding Yue continuously strives to enhance the influence and reputation of Mist City Arts and Science University.

In the Central Sports Ground of Mist City Arts and Science University, Director Xiong Yang from the Department of Culture and Sports, along with all his staff, have arrived on site, busy making the final arrangements.

At eight o’clock in the evening, the long-awaited New Year’s Eve Gala at Mist City Arts and Science University will commence.

Director Xiong Yang is in charge of the overall coordination of this New Year’s Eve Gala, a crucial task where no mistakes can be afforded, otherwise his career and future might be completely bleak.

Of course, in reality, Director Xiong Yang is even more concerned about the various impacts this New Year’s Eve Gala will have on Mist City Arts and Science University; his personal career and future are secondary concerns.

In the afternoon, following the annual tradition, Ding Yue first came to the site to inspect the specific preparations.

"Principal Ding, we have carefully selected all our programs and have undergone rigorous rehearsals. There will definitely be no problems, and additionally, the order on site, as well as the security work, are cooperatively overseen by our Department of Culture, Sports and the security department."

Director Xiong Yang followed behind Principal Ding, accompanying him on the "inspection" while reporting on related work.

"Hmm, order and security are of utmost importance, especially as this is a large-scale gala and also a live broadcast, where no mistakes can be afforded," Principal Ding repeatedly emphasized.

"Understood, Principal Ding, we will strictly adhere to every procedure," Director Xiong Yang said resolutely.

"Good, is this year the same as previous years? In addition to some main events, there are backup programs, right?" Ding Yue further inquired.

Last year, Ding Yue learned that Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala actually prepared quite a number of performances, some of which were "backups," intended to be substitutes in case any issues arose with the planned programs, and thus would not guarantee a stage appearance unless necessary.

However, these "backup" programs had to be prepared and rehearsed very rigorously, adhering to the standards required for a performance.

"Yes, Principal Ding, we have some programs prepared as immediate substitutes, but these substitutes have also been well-prepared and rehearsed, please rest assured," Director Xiong Yang earnestly replied.

"They are quite unlikely to perform onstage and won’t be seen by the audience, but they still put in tremendous effort, no less than those who do perform onstage. So, Director Xiong, my point is, whether in terms of performance remuneration or treatment, do not neglect these students," Ding Yue spoke with profound concern.

Every performing team and every staff member involved in Mist City Arts and Science University’s New Year’s Eve Gala receives a "remuneration;" Ding Yue would not expect students to contribute to the school’s New Year’s Eve Gala for free, as that would be akin to treating them like slaves.

"Absolutely, Principal Ding, rest assured, we will certainly not let the students’ hard work go to waste," Director Xiong Yang nodded repeatedly.

"Hmm, that is good to hear."
