After a period of effort, Mu Qingqing's problem was finally resolved. At the same time, the site selection for the junior high school was also successfully completed. After careful consideration, Liu Yanran made a bold decision: to build a comprehensive school integrating kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and high school.
Considering the difficulties faced by children in the surrounding mountainous areas in attending school, she specially planned a dormitory building and provided accommodation for the faculty and staff, so that students, whether near or far, could all enjoy good educational resources.
The school's location, at the intersection of Liujiapo, Lijiacun, and Gaojiacun, offers convenient transportation and a beautiful environment. To ensure safer and more convenient access for children, Liu Yanran personally led workers in building several roads connecting the villages to the school. These initiatives not only brought convenience to local residents but also earned their gratitude.
Later, this brand new school stood on this land, becoming a vital pillar of local education. The villagers were filled with respect and gratitude for Liu Yanran, praising her kind act. Liu Yanran, in turn, poured her heart and soul into this school, hoping to create a brighter future for more children.
To commemorate this history, the school was named "Chaoyang College," which symbolizes hope and light, implying that every child who studies here will thrive and shine brightly like the rising sun.
Because it was the off-season, they recruited strong laborers from several villages to build the buildings. The people in the three villages were very generous, with one village providing approximately 1,000 square meters of land. Currently, there was only one kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school in the village within a ten-kilometer radius, so this would undoubtedly boost the development of these villages. Some of the more daring families were already considering the feasibility of breakfast shops and convenience stores. Liu Yanran also publicly tendered for the cafeteria, with separate bids for the restaurants of the various colleges to prevent a single company from dominating the market. Even the city leaders attached great importance to the establishment of this school.
Especially several leaders in the county, they have made up their minds to get along well with the Liu family. In the past, due to various factors, there was no school in the village. Now, not only have they supported it financially, but they have also built a road. They have also invited these old guys to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony. It really gives them both face and money. Now when they go to the meeting, they all stand up straight.
This series of measures made subsequent school affairs proceed exceptionally smoothly. Whether it was applying for supplies or handling related procedures, everything was quickly and smoothly processed. Even the Liu family members who wanted to start a business or obtain a business license were able to do so much faster than others.
The entire school construction project, from preparation to completion, recruitment of faculty and staff, and official opening, took a total of six months. Finally, in the summer of 1981, the school welcomed its first students.
The recruitment requirements for kindergarten teachers are relatively low, requiring only a junior high school diploma, but there are strict requirements for personal qualities - they must be compassionate. Therefore, every teacher undergoes an on-site inspection before taking up the post.
Elementary school teachers are required to have a high school diploma, while the teaching staff at the junior and senior high school levels are mainly composed of early college graduates.
Due to the generous benefits offered, it even attracted some teachers from big cities with rich teaching experience to apply.
In addition, a group of graduates from specialized normal colleges joined in. Finally, after going through layers of selection, the best talents were able to stay and teach.
Later, Chaoyang College sent a lot of talents to various places, and its admission rate was well-known far and wide. It continued to be successful in the following years.
The school has always attached great importance to the all-round development of students. It not only emphasizes academic performance, but also encourages students to actively participate in sports, art and social practice activities.
This educational philosophy has enabled many students to achieve outstanding results in various fields and become leaders in various fields. Furthermore, the school has established a scholarship system to help students from financially disadvantaged families with outstanding character and academic performance realize their university dreams. These initiatives have been warmly welcomed by faculty and students and have earned high praise from the public.
Years later, when people recall their alma mater, they are filled with pride and gratitude. Many students who once came from humble backgrounds have now become elites in various fields, and they are filled with deep affection for their alma mater, sometimes even moved to tears.
This fully demonstrates the success of the school's educational philosophy and training model, and also shows the school's profound impact on students' growth.
As time went on, Liu Yanran's career continued to grow and she established several Chaoyang Colleges across the country, some of which were located in remote mountainous areas.
Liu Yanran attaches great importance to the development of each college, personally participating in the site selection process to ensure that each campus provides a good learning environment for students. These colleges are all public and not for profit. Instead, they are committed to providing more children with the opportunity to receive a quality education.
Liu Yanran has always believed that education is the key to changing one's destiny. She hopes that through her efforts, more children will have the opportunity to study, especially girls from disadvantaged backgrounds.
She believes that only through the power of knowledge can one truly enrich oneself, escape poverty and constraints, and pursue one's own life value. Therefore, she regards school as a responsibility and mission rather than a tool for commercial interests.
The name "Chaoyang" symbolizes hope and brightness. Liu Yanran hopes that every student who enters Chaoyang College will feel this warmth and care. She firmly believes that as long as the sun rises, there will always be hope in life. This simple yet profound phrase has become the motto of Chaoyang College, inspiring generations of students to forge ahead and pursue their dreams.
