Some teachers even suggested creating a special dining area exclusively for top students like Jiang Cai'Er, but the idea was dropped due to concerns about sensitive parents and potential online backlash.
Li Xiang had spoken with the school and obtained permission to livestream and record the event. He also brought Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing, Lei Xiaohui, and Lei Xiaonan to manage the operation.
In addition, various invited media outlets and the school's own official account were also livestreaming the event.
The coming-of-age ceremony was rich with ritual, beginning with the "Changing of Robes and Straightening of Caps."
As the oath-leader, Jiang Cai'Er was the first to receive a Plain Silk Deep Robe from the dean of students.
These were custom-made for the entire school and sponsored by Li Xiang's team. The White Jade Belt Buckles were even engraved with the school motto: "To investigate things is to extend knowledge."
