Her Kindergarten is Full of Villainous Students

Chapter 64

The livestream ended.

At the end, the issue of tuition fees for this term was discussed.

All the parents were very concerned, and even colleagues had been secretly tuning in to the livestream all day, finally getting a valuable piece of information!

The kindergarten teachers perked up immediately.

They had anticipated this, as Shen Wei's previous tuition fee of 260 yuan was unrealistic.

With so many new students joining, it was impossible to continue charging 260 yuan.

If they kept it at 260, it wouldn't be charity, it would just be causing trouble.

Shen Wei said the tuition fees would likely be charged at a normal rate.

She didn't specify the exact amount!

Many were guessing.

Currently, a relatively good kindergarten charges around 3,000 yuan per month.

But it's obvious that Starry Sky Kindergarten is of a higher caliber than those.

So everyone was anticipating that the tuition fees would be at least between 3,000-4,000 yuan.

With that being the case, it wouldn't be the previous 260 yuan anymore.

Some parents started brainstorming: "Is there anyone willing to transfer their spot? I'm willing to pay 20,000 yuan."

If those who were accepted were to give up because the tuition fee wasn't 260 yuan, then they would be missing out on a great opportunity.

The key is that not only they are smart.

At one point, several people wanted to buy a spot, and the price kept rising.

On Shen Wei's end, she had closed the livestream room, leaving the fans of the livestream room feeling miserable.

They flocked to the comment section to leave messages.

They wanted to know exactly how much the tuition fee would be.

It couldn't be eight thousand to ten thousand yuan, could it?

Everyone was guessing at that time.

The next day, as soon as Shen Wei opened the livestream room,

The people pouring in were all concerned about the tuition fee issue, with no interest in watching the interviews.

Seeing that the screen was filled with questions about this, Shen Wei said: "Then let me announce the tuition fee."

Those watching the livestream sat up straight.

They had been speculating about this news for a long time yesterday.

Most people thought the tuition fee would be at least 3,500 yuan.

But Shen Wei said: "The tuition fee will be 1,600 yuan per month from now on, including breakfast, lunch, school bus, uniforms, dance, music, painting, calligraphy, with one class per week. All of these are included, and in the future, we plan to offer English and computer interest classes as well!"

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. 1,600 yuan was considered very reasonable by all.

Those who had been demanding to transfer their spots yesterday were still demanding it today, with the price being driven up to 60,000 yuan, but no one was willing to sell.

Everyone wasn't blind.

Their child's bright future was more important than a few thousand yuan.

Having so many high-level teachers for early education.

Having such carefully selected children as classmates.

Who would care about those few thousand yuan?

Those wanting to buy a spot didn't want to waste a year, so they were willing to spend a little more money to get in. There were many parents with this demand.

But the children who had worked hard to get in were not willing to sell their spots at all.

And this was the first year that Starry Sky Kindergarten was recruiting students. Many people were still observing and had not applied in time!

Now that the popularity was so high, there would definitely be more applicants next time.

Once the spots were taken, it would be difficult to get them back.

Soon, the old fans in the livestream room came up with a suggestion - don't buy spots from those children who had worked hard to get in.

Every staff member at Starry Sky Kindergarten has two recommendation spots.

At that moment, everyone who had appeared on the livestream started tapping into their connections.

In the end, only the spot from School Bus Driver Zhang Daming was sold.

It turned out true as Liu Chef had said earlier. It was sold too cheaply, and now it could fetch an extra 10,000 yuan.

The others realized this spot was precious and didn't want to sell it casually!

Moreover, Starry Sky Kindergarten had generously given them 100,000 yuan for a buyout of their image rights early on.

So they weren't that short on money.

They had to be a little more selective with the people they recommended.

However, everyone was quite appreciative of Starry Sky Kindergarten.

The benefits given were so substantial, which was essentially giving them money.

It was rare to find a place with a good environment and high salary, so they had to work hard.

...

The Starry Sky Kindergarten livestream was a huge hit.

Elder Sister Xu from the Mall also became a celebrity.

Ever since her colleague told people that Elder Sister Xu's child attended Starry Sky Kindergarten,

Others flocked to ask her how her child got in.

They learned that it was Elder Sister Xu's mother-in-law who penny-pinched and enrolled the child there. At the time, Elder Sister Xu was unwilling.

They clutched their chests, saying to Elder Sister Xu, "It's a good thing you didn't refuse back then, otherwise you'd be regretting it now."

Elder Sister Xu wholeheartedly agreed.

That parent who had paid money to go to the kindergarten and make trouble by withdrawing their child was now regretting it deeply.

With such a precedent, they couldn't afford to make the same mistake.

These past few days, Elder Sister Xu occasionally watched the cut compilation videos of the children from the livestream.

The selection process was truly strict.

Now that Starry Sky Kindergarten was so popular, even her nemesis in procurement was trying to butter her up.

They wanted to see if they could use their connections as an old student's parent to recommend their child.

Elder Sister Xu was sick and tired of it all.

Too many people had been coming to her to consult about the kindergarten lately.

At noon for lunch, she deliberately found the most secluded corner in the mall's food court.

Elder Sister Xu took out her phone, which she hadn't really checked all morning.

As soon as she opened it, she saw 99+ replies.

Upon further inspection, it turned out an unfamiliar person had added her to a group.

The group name was "Starry Sky Kindergarten Class 1 Parents Group."

Elder Sister Xu opened it and saw that many were parents of students.

She had seen them before when picking up their children and added them on WeChat.

Elder Sister Xu took a closer look and realized that the group didn't include Teacher Tang, Shen Wei, or any of the others.

It was a private group for student parents.

At that moment, the group had been chatting for a while.

Elder Sister Xu scrolled up, and it seemed endless.

But she patiently found the very first message and read through them one by one.

The parents' group had already shared the latest 1,600 yuan tuition fee.

Someone had also shared some highlights from the children's interviews.

Most of the comments were along the lines of being grateful that they had enrolled early. Otherwise, according to the current standards, their children might not have been accepted.

One person's comment sparked a discussion among everyone.

That person said: "I plan to pay the 1,600 yuan tuition fee for the next payment!"

They had already paid nearly half a year at the previous rate of 260 yuan.

It was clear to everyone what kind of facilities and food their children were getting.

"260 yuan doesn't even cover the costs. I'm really grateful to that kindergarten. As long as my child is happy, I'm happy. They've been so good to us, I don't want to take advantage anymore."

So they created a private group to discuss whether they should do this, and the response was very enthusiastic.

Everyone chimed in: "I've been wanting to say this for a while but didn't have the courage."

"I don't know what others think, but I'm willing to do it."

"The kids are really happy here. I'd even be willing to pay 2,600, not just 1,600."

"The kindergarten is a business, they need to make money. Even though Shen Wei isn't short on money, we should act like we don't know that."

"You're right."

"I agree."

"I agree too."

Elder Sister Xu was the last to see it.

By the time she saw it, everyone else in the group had already agreed.

Not wanting to be left behind, Elder Sister Xu said, "I agree too. It's already great that the kids can attend this kindergarten. Plus, they've added extracurricular classes now. I've inquired about it, and teachers of their caliber charge at least 300 yuan an hour for private lessons."

The parents really aren't losing out.

The group admin didn't expect everyone to be on board so quickly. She immediately said, "Alright, I'll add Teacher Tang and Shen Wei to the group. Everyone can discuss it with them and show them our support."

Soon, Teacher Tang and Shen Wei were added to the group.

As soon as they joined, the parents enthusiastically petitioned for a price increase.

Shen Wei was dumbfounded. "There's no need, no need. I said 260, so it's 260 - that's already a discounted rate for you all."

"But we've been enjoying that discount for a long time now."

"We really can't let you subsidize us anymore!"

"That's right, we all agree."

"Next month, we'll pay 1,600."

"Please, just take the money. I hope you can earn more!"

"I'm especially worried you're not making enough."

"We're not asking for your opinion on the price increase, we're telling you. Understand?"

Seeing the parents' comments one by one, Shen Wei was truly touched.

This was their acknowledgment of her and Teacher Tang's efforts.

Sincerity really does beget sincerity.

The parents' thinking was very simple. 1,600 might not be much, but it would cover their basic costs.

Maybe the Starry Sky Kindergarten could stick around for longer.

The students' parents were eager for Starry Sky Kindergarten to become a century-old institution.

So this unhealthy operating model of subsidizing costs should change.

Shen Wei agreed!

The students' parents were overjoyed.

One of them even took a screenshot and posted it on social media.

All the parents begging Starry Sky Kindergarten to raise prices became a hot topic again.

Other kindergartens' competitors felt sour and resentful - how did they manage to get such supportive parents?

Begging to be charged more?

I've really seen it all!
