Mist City Arts and Science University boasts many formidable programs.
However, one of these has already achieved "results", and that is Animation Design and Production.
Under the collaboration with the Feiyue Animation Studio, the animation program has brought to life the currently hot "Super Combat Team" animated film.
It has also set a record for domestic box office revenues for animated films.
Given these achievements and the outstanding faculty and students of Animation Design and Production, there is no reason not to make it a provincial key-level major.
"What’s the progress of the Animation Design and Production program?"
With a thought, Ding Yue brought up the system panel before his eyes.
[Provincial Key-Level Major] ——
Major: Animation Design and Production
"It’s already this high."
After seeing the data, Ding Yue was slightly amazed.
He had been focusing his attention on Mechanics, Computer Science, Medicine, Architecture, Chemistry, or Physics, to the point that he overlooked the animation program.
Both the animation and game programs have broad future prospects, but Ding Yue had only just started focusing on the game program. The animation program, on the other hand, has already accomplished much. If he increased his investment, wouldn’t he be able to complete a task progress?
"Alright, let’s go with the animation program."
Ding Yue had decided, as soon as he has adequate funds, he will increase his investment in the animation program.
This investment includes hardware, faculty strength, etc. Only after these increased investments would the system assess the progress of the animation program.
It only needs to reach 100%.
However, the money will have to wait until the box office earnings of "Super Combat Team" are settled.
With this in mind, Ding Yue suddenly felt that the nearly 1.3 billion funds that "Super Combat Team" earned for him might not be enough?
Though the second phase of the school expansion doesn’t need it yet, since 700 million has been allocated for the second phase of the school expansion.
There are many more projects that need funding.
Not to mention the annual teaching expenses, the photolithography machine experimental project is a sure money burner.
Secondly, his sister’s graphene battery technology project requires a lot of money to manufacture a graphene mechanical exfoliation preparation machine.
Then, there’s also the planned investment in the film and television industry, as well as the cost of completing the five areas of [Provincial Key-Level Majors]. All these are significant sums of money.
"Will the money be enough?"
Although Ding Yue was unable to estimate how much these investments would need, he felt that 1.3 billion might not be sufficient.
Even though a considerable sum of money will be coming in after next year’s admissions, many investments probably won’t be able to wait until next year.
"Principal Ding, Principal Ding?"
While Ding Yue was worrying about the possible lack of funds for the future construction of the school, the secretary, Wen Ruohan, called him.
After coming back to his senses, Ding Yue looked at Wen Ruohan and asked: "What’s the matter?"
"Principal Ding, Director Bai from the Medical School just called and said he would like to report to you about establishing a cooperation and exchange relationship with Mist City Medical University."
Wen Ruohan quickly informed Principal Ding of the phone call she received from Bai Liwei, the director of the Medical School.
"Okay, I understand."
In general, as long as the deans of various faculties from Mist City Arts and Science University wish to see him, Ding Yue would meet them immediately.
Because these deans certainly have important matters related to their faculties, and moreover, Bai Liwei is here to discuss establishing an exchange and cooperation relationship with Mist City Medical University. This is a significant matter.
This is also one of the tasks in the five tasks progress.
"What’s the task progress of the Medical School?"
Ding Yue asked the system again.
[Provincial Key-Level Major] ——
Seeing the information displayed in front of him, Ding Yue couldn’t help but exclaim how high it is. It seems about to be completed soon, right?
The medical school had previously purchased a batch of medical teaching equipment. Additionally, they also have achievements like the medical health robot, Big White, and the professors in the medical school are all from Mist City Central Hospital and Mist City Medical University.
The hardware and faculty resources are in place, no wonder it’s about to evaluated by the system as a provincial key-level major.
But it’s still a little short.
Ding Yue couldn’t help but wonder, what exactly is missing?
Perhaps when Director Bai Liwei comes later, Ding Yue should be able to find out what’s missing after asking.
About ten minutes later.
Bai Liwei, the director of the medical school, arrived at the principal’s office.
"Director Bai, sit down."
After Bai Liwei sat down, he began to report on his recent communications and exchanges with Mist City Medical University.
Since the principals of both universities have agreed to establish a cooperative exchange relationship and there is a certain degree of overlap between the teaching staff of the two schools, the collaborative communication has been fairly smooth.
"Principal Ding, since you returned from the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference, you asked us to intensify our exchanges with Mist City Medical University. Our Medical School has held three joint meetings with Mist City Medical University to discuss a range of issues, such as student teaching, teacher cooperation, and hardware equipment supplementation."
