Chen Xia donated 2 million RMB, not only to make Four Seasons Group famous, but he also had other ideas.
"Principal Shen, I have one small request. Can No. 1 Middle School provide five enrollment quotas to my hometown, Qingfeng Village, Xipu Township, every year? Don't worry, I will definitely send the best-performing children from my family to attend."
Yes, Chen Xia has built the best primary and junior high schools in the entire region in Qingfeng Village.
But if the high school layout can be completed, the children of Qingfeng Village will have more opportunities to enter university.
If there are not enough places, he can just go to No. 2 Middle School, No. 3 Middle School, and Kezhen Middle School to spend some money.
In this way, there are twenty or thirty high school places each year, which is enough for all the Chen family members in Qingfeng Village to go to high school.
Principal Shen hesitated for a moment, feeling a little reluctant.
No. 1 Middle School only enrolls a few hundred students every year, and these are the best-performing children in the entire region. If five places are given up, another five children may lose the opportunity to pursue further studies.
This is unfair.
But the temptation of 2 million was too great, so great that he couldn't even say no.
"Dean Chen, this, this..."
When Chen Xia saw Shen Cong'an's conflicted expression, he secretly admired him. If he agreed just for money, it would be despised.
But Chen Xia also considered the interests of his own Chen family and did not care about other children. The principal was already on the verge of agreeing or not agreeing, so adding some fuel to the fire would definitely work.
In the 1980s, there were still many poor students.
Although Yuezhou is a relatively wealthy area, not every household is engaged in business. The majority of people are still farmers. In addition, there are too many children in this era, so the burden on farmers is still very heavy.
Due to their poor family background, many students do not have the conditions to continue their studies in high school. The saying that it is difficult for a child from a poor family to become a successful person is still true in this era.
Like Chen Xia's predecessor, he also studied in high school at Kezhen Middle School, but had to drop out of school due to family difficulties, and eventually drowned for unknown reasons.
This is where Chen Xia wants to add fuel to the fire.
"Principal Shen, I heard that No. 1 Middle School has many students with excellent academic performance but poor family conditions. My wife and I are willing to pair up with them privately. Please give me the list of names and I will pay for the tuition of all the poor students."
When Gu Lin heard this, she quickly nodded.
After becoming a mother, the maternal love in Gu Lin's character has become a little overflowing. As long as she has the ability and conditions, she also wants to help these children in need.
Moreover, she knew that her husband had just received $200 million from the United States and was not short of this small amount of money.
The tuition fee of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a year is indeed a drop in the bucket for Chen Xia, but it can change a child's future. It can be done.
Moreover, this is also to recruit future talents for Four Seasons Group.
There will always be some poor students who graduate from college. After returning from their studies, they may go to work for the Four Seasons Group in their hometown. Nowadays, college students are all talented and knowledgeable, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are all elites.
When Principal Shen heard this, he thought the scales were still holding up well. He sighed and finally succumbed to money.
"Okay, Dean Chen and Madam Chen, it's settled. No. 1 Middle School will give Qingfeng Village five special enrollment quotas each year. No more, and the results must be guaranteed."
Chen Xia was delighted, "Then it's a deal, hahaha."
With the warm farewell of Principal Shen and a group of teachers, Chen Xia and his group left the gate of No. 1 Middle School.
Chen Qiu pulled Chen Dong's ear and said viciously:
"My second brother spent millions of dollars on your education. If you don't live up to your expectations, I'll have you go back to Qingfeng Village to farm. We still have two acres of land. If my second brother could drop out of school and go home to farm, you can do the same."
Chen Dong was so angry. It wasn't the school he wanted to go to, so who would care if they wanted to go to it?
But he didn't dare to yell out loud. The third sister was just like the eldest sister, both were tigresses, so he could only swallow his tears.
Chen Xia was in a good mood and waved his hand:
"Come on, it's rare that the three little ones aren't here today, so I'll treat you. Let's go to the Hualian Building and have ice cream."
When they heard that there was something delicious, especially sweet, Gu Lin and Chen Qiu were very happy.
Only Chen Dong looked up at the sky in silence, thinking that his life was too tragic. It would be better for him to set up a wooden box on the roadside and sell popsicles.
It was August now.
Chen Xia followed the Zhijiang Province Health System Delegation to the capital to attend a commendation conference.
It has transformed an ordinary regional hospital into a first-class hospital in the country, and has also gained a certain degree of international fame, hosting international academic conferences every year.
As the vice president of Yuezhou Hospital, Chen Xia was awarded the honor of "National Outstanding President" this time.
Only 10 deans nationwide received this honor this time. When everyone stood on the podium to receive the award, the other 9 deans were all old men with silver hair, and only Chen Xia was a young man.
This style of painting is awkward no matter how you look at it.
But we have to admit that which hospital in the country has established partnerships with so many top foreign hospitals like Yuezhou Hospital?
Which other hospital can publish N papers in The Lancet in a year like Yuezhou Hospital?
Which hospital can send its own doctors to any country or hospital for further training at will? Even Mayo can send dozens of doctors at once?
What is most infuriating is that they managed to raise 600 million RMB in just one or two years and then started building a new hospital that is said to be world-leading.
It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
Many old directors were furious when they saw the complacent young director on the stage. They wanted to immediately bring him to their own hospital to be the director, and would rather they, the old guys, step down and take some time off.
This guy is really too much of a troublemaker. He dared to go to the United States to hold a press conference when the hospital suffered a little injustice. He is so bold.
Not only did the audience feel awkward seeing him, but even Chen Xia himself felt uncomfortable.
In order to receive the award, Gu Lin specially prepared a navy blue suit and red tie for him, intending to make himself look more calm.
As soon as he got on stage, Chen Xia discovered that the other nine deans were all wearing Zhongshan suits, and he was the only one wearing a suit and tie. He looked out of place and had really violated a big taboo in the workplace.
So as soon as the award ceremony was over, Chen Xia immediately asked for leave from the delegation and ran to meet Xu Rui.
The offices of "Ruixiang Advertising Company" of which Xu Rui is the major shareholder and "Four Seasons Film and Television Company" of which Chen Xia is the major shareholder are both located in Guanghua Building near Guanghua Bridge on the East Third Ring Road.
Guanghua Building is a 20-story building. With the help of Xu Rui's connections, Chen Xia purchased it in the name of Xiangjiang Four Seasons Property Company for a total of 130 million Hong Kong dollars.
I wonder how much this building will be worth in a few decades on this core plot of land in the East Third Ring Road, where every inch of land is worth a lot of money. It is really not as good to speculate in real estate as to do business.
