Wei Yanping’s votes seemed to be very few, but Ning Shi was not surprised at all. This was because most of the school committee members were Liang Wenli’s people.
Wei Yanping was able to rope in seven committee members under Liang Wenli’s control, which was already considered pretty good.
“How do you want me to help you?” Ning Shi asked again.
Wei Yanping sent a document to Ning Shi on his smart wristwatch and said, “Lord Ning, this list is my investigation of all the members of the school committee.
“It records their details.
“I’ve carefully screened them, and there are 21 of them who are suitable to be controlled by forceful means. They either have bad behavior or ulterior motives, so they can be used by us.
“Once we control these 21 people, plus the votes I previously controlled, we have 29 votes. The chances of winning are very high.”
The four candidates had a total of 68 votes. If he could get 29 votes, Wei Yanping had a high chance of being elected as the principal.
After all, if Pang Yuanqing and Wu Yisheng fought, they would definitely split the votes, and Teny would definitely have his own ideas.
The candidates’ votes might not be too concentrated.
Ning Shi carefully read the document that Wei Yanping sent over.
“Name: Zhao Lizong, Age: 41, Title: Trained a department officer, personality defect: 1. In December 169, he received a total of 2 million origin coins from Wang Hu, changing Wang Hu’s annual assessment from passing to excellent. 2. Keep 3 mistresses, respectively…”
After Wei Yanping and Ning Shi finished reading the form, he said proudly, “I was originally a spy for the nobles. I usually collect all kinds of information in the academy.
“Therefore, I know everything about these committee members like the back of my hand.”
Ning Shi looked at it very carefully because controlling a person with a chip bomb alone was not enough.
Everyone had different personalities and situations. Even if there was a chip bomb in their body, they might not listen to Ning Shi.
Some people had tough personalities and would rather die than submit. Some people appeared to be obedient, but in reality, they were secretly resisting behind their backs.
The reason why Ning Shi was able to control Wei Yanping was not only because of the chip bomb but also because of his identity as a spy and his giving Wei Yanping positive encouragement.
He expressed his willingness to help him revitalize his family and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
Only with such a multi-pronged approach could he barely subdue him.
Wei Yanping’s information was very detailed, especially the 21 people he marked. They were indeed vermin of the academy. These people had a lot of corruption problems. Their humanity had long been corrupted by wealth, sex, and alcohol. It was indeed easier to control.
Even if one or two people resisted, Ning Shi could bear the risk.
For the position of principal, Ning Shi was willing to take the risk.
However, he didn’t have enough chip bombs, so he needed to go to Yuan City to trade with Tong Baiming.
Thinking of Tong Baiming, Ning Shi had an idea. He said to Wei Yanping, “When candidates participate in the principal election, do they have a campaign slogan?
Wei Yanping did not expect Ning Shi to ask this. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said, “Yes, but it’s just some formal slogans. There’s not much substance.”
Ning Shi said, ‘Then I’ll think of a slogan for you. ‘The school is financially independent.’ You can promise the school committee that after you become the principal, the school will achieve self-sustenance within three years. You won’t have to rely on the administrative department’s funding and the military supplies department’s weapons support.
“I saw your name list just now. Among the school committee members, there are still some good teachers who are dedicated to the development of the academy. As long as you raise this slogan, these people will definitely vote for you.
‘With the help of the school committee members that I’ve helped you control, your final votes will definitely exceed 34 votes. The position of principal is set in stone.”
When Wei Yanping heard Ning Shi’s words, he was a little anxious. He retorted loudly, “Lord, you can’t do that. I can’t just shout your campaign slogan. Once I make a substantial promise, it will be verified by the Al network
‘The time limit of the promised campaign slogan cannot exceed one year. If we propose that the academy be financially independent, it must be realized within one year.
“If I can’t fulfill my campaign promise, not only will I be stripped of my qualifications as principal and expelled from the academy, but I will also face jail time if the situation is serious..”
