Chapter 173 Shadow Yan Jiuru nodded after listening, but very seriously...
Chapter 173 Shadow
In the morning, Yan Jiuru held a meeting.
Although the ten days given by Minister Huang have not yet arrived, the work that needs to be done cannot be delayed.
Foreign companies applying for investment and ongoing projects will not stop and wait just because the director has changed.
Making money has always been a race against time.
At the meeting, Yan Jiuru communicated with the deputy director and section chief who were originally following up on these projects based on the information at hand, to understand their working methods and processes, as well as the status of these projects.
Then, Yan Jiuru took out several copies of the materials that his secretary had made and had them distributed to everyone, saying, "I don't care how you worked before, but from now on, we have to change our methods.
For example, the following companies' applications list a $30 million investment, a $25 million investment, and even one with a $100 million investment.
"Haha, what a coincidence," Yan Jiuru said coldly, tapping the companies on the list. "Not only do I know that all the assets of their companies in their home country combined don't even amount to 10 million US dollars, but I even know that two of them have large bank debts that are about to mature."
"Also, the guy who claimed the total investment was expected to be 100 million, his boss is a financial fraud.
This person is best at using a small amount of money to start a fake project investment, then using the project to defraud the bank of a loan. One or two years after receiving the loan, he'll just run away, leaving behind a half-finished project with a huge loan to the local government...
Everyone was stunned.
Yan Jiuru continued, "I know that due to the current conditions, our review process is done by people sitting in an office looking at things on paper, which is bound to have limitations.
This is exactly what I want to say, the focus of future work needs to be adjusted."
All projects, whether newly applied or already in progress, must be supplemented with relevant bank investigation information in the home country, whether there is any bank debt, debt of major shareholders, etc.
The above must be endorsed by a well-known institution, preferably with a guarantee.
Also, we cannot rely entirely on others. The foreign trade and economic cooperation department must also conduct on-site inspections. This involves overseas business trips, etc., and he needs to meet with his superiors to confirm it.
. . . . . .
After the meeting with his department, Yan Jiuru took the materials to see Minister Huang.
After reporting on the meeting, I handed him the relevant materials to review slowly, and then asked for leave: "I have to go to my child's school."
Minister Huang asked curiously, "Has your child not found a school yet?"
"I found it. Hi, this isn't..."
There was nothing he couldn't say.
Appropriate communication about trivial family matters is also a way to bring people closer together.
Minister Huang frowned after hearing this and waved at him: "Then go quickly."
He is a high-ranking official and it is not appropriate for him to make comments casually.
But I also have a lot to say about the current situation of varying quality of teachers in schools.
***
When we left the office building, the driver had already driven the Red Star car to the door and was waiting for us.
The Red Star car drove to the gate of Jingjing and Xiaohu's school. The driver parked the car and immediately went to the guard room to say hello.
These trivial matters are naturally the job of the driver and secretary, and the director certainly doesn't need to be involved.
Soon, a confused-looking vice-president came over to greet them personally.
When they saw Yan Jiuru and the Red Star car, their minds froze for a moment. They really couldn't figure out why a department-level leader came to their school.
However, the school leaders in Yancheng are all knowledgeable and experienced. The vice principal quickly adjusted his attitude, shook hands and greeted them warmly, and asked what the leader's visit was about.
Yan Jiuru said modestly: "I am just a student's parent today."
Despite this, the vice principal did not dare to treat the director as an ordinary parent. If he did, he would have been fired long ago.
The vice principal stopped a teacher on the way and gave some instructions. When he brought Yan Jiuru into the reception room of the school office, Principal Liu and another vice principal Zhang rushed over.
Initially, when Yan Jiuru came to the school, it was Principal Liu who received him. Now when they met again, he was actually the director!
While Principal Liu was feeling emotional, he was also somewhat puzzled about the purpose of Yan Jiuru's visit.
After all, they have nothing to do with the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.
Yan Jiuru looked at his watch and said politely, "It's like this. I heard the two kids talking about it last night. They had a conflict with their teacher in English class last week.
I happened to have some time after the meeting today, so I thought I'd come over to apologize to the teacher and find out about my child's academic progress."
Principal Liu and the two vice principals looked at each other. Regardless of whether to apologize or not, they were afraid that this contradiction was the crux of the problem.
***
Principal Liu was personally responsible for arranging the classes for the two children, and he knew which class they were in immediately.
He glanced at the living room clock and immediately made arrangements: "Recess exercises will start in a few minutes. Lao Hong, go ask someone to call the head teacher of Grade 8 (Grade 3), Teacher Wang, and the English teacher. I think it's Teacher Yao."
How could Vice Principal Hong really just find someone to call for help?
He couldn't use the school loudspeaker to shout, so he had to go all the way to the teacher's office.
The head teacher of Class 3 is in the office looking for naughty students to reprimand.
That’s perfect. There’s no need to trouble others. Let this student inform Teacher Yu to go to the principal’s office immediately.
In order to avoid further scolding, the student immediately ran to call for help.
***
"What's going on?"
The head teacher, Mr. Wang, teaches mathematics. He followed Vice Principal Hong and asked for information as they walked.
Vice Principal Hong glanced at him and asked, "Are there twins named Yan in your class?"
"Oh~they."
The head teacher smiled brightly, "These two kids are very smart.
I was just thinking about it, didn't the higher-ups just issue an order to restart the IMO Mathematical Olympiad? After the exams, I plan to organize an IMO competition class and enroll both of them."
"So, these two students are good at math?"
Teacher Wang couldn't help but glance at the vice principal. "It's not that he's good at math, it's that he's good at almost every subject."
“Oh, your English is good too?”
Teacher Wang resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "He's from abroad and speaks English like he eats and drinks water. How could it be worse?"
Besides, where are the results of the last placement test? How could I get first place if I am not good enough?
Vice Principal Hong has a toothache. This seems to be a bit of a problem...
***
When Teacher Wang met the principal and Yan Jiuru, he said: Although Yan Yujing and Yan Fengsheng are transfer students, their scores in the first two exams were among the best in the class.
Apart from losing two points due to answering the questions too quickly and carelessly, the overall result was excellent.”
After asking about the grades, Principal Liu took the initiative to ask about the student’s relationship with teachers and classmates.
"After all, I'm three or four years younger than the other students in the class, and I seem to like playing with the first-year students more."
"However, they have good grades and teachers like such students very much."
Yan Jiuru had a question mark in his mind about this.
As we were talking, Teacher Yao also arrived.
Principal Liu personally introduced: "This is the father of Yan Yujing and Yan Fengsheng, and this is Mr. Yao, the English teacher of Class 3."
Yan Jiuru took a quick look at the other person.
Teacher Yao wears glasses, is in his thirties, and has two short brush-like hairstyles.
If my estimation is correct, people of this age may be those who took the college entrance examination two or three years after its resumption, and were assigned to be teachers after graduation.
Yan Jiuru smiled brightly, "I'm sorry, Teacher Yao. I just heard the kids talking about it last night at dinner. They weren't polite to the teacher in class.
As the child's father, I would like to apologize to you first.
Their mother is busy with work, otherwise they would come together."
Teacher Yao's heart began to beat when she heard that this imposing man was Yan Yujing's father. But when she heard him apologize, she felt strangely relieved.
The people of Xuan have always had a tradition of respecting teachers and valuing education.
As for students, if they don't behave, not only will they be kicked out and forced to stand in class, their parents will even spank them without hesitation.
Yan Jiuru changed the subject, "We have always taught children to respect teachers. This child may not understand it correctly. He thinks pointing out the teacher's mistakes in class is also a form of respecting teachers."
He glanced at the principals with a hint of helplessness. "I was inconsiderate. I thought their grades were good enough to get into the third year of junior high. I didn't anticipate that they were still immature and not good at handling these things."
"When Jingjing came back and told me yesterday, he was still very hurt. He didn't know where he had gone wrong and even said that he would just give up learning English in the future."
After hearing this, not only the class teacher, but even several principals understood what was going on.
You're not here to apologize, you're here to complain, right?!
As the class teacher, Mr. Wang couldn't stay out of the situation and had to ask Ms. Yao, "What's going on?"
Teacher Yao's cheeks flushed, but she said proudly, "Student Yan Yujing really doesn't respect the teacher. She thinks she knows a little English and speaks nonsense in class.
It wasn't just once or twice that I pointed out the teacher's mistakes in class, either pointing out the wrong pronunciation or the wrong choice of words.
I don't think there's anything wrong with letting her stand outside the door; she's seriously disturbing the teacher's class."
Yan Jiuru said sincerely, "Oh, then Teacher Yao, can you give me a recent example? What did she choose?"
Teacher Yao had been holding her breath and said the word from last time without thinking much.
Yan Jiuru nodded after listening, but said very seriously: "I really need to correct this word to Teacher Yao. You did read it wrong."
He repeated the pronunciation with very standard pronunciation, and also explained the other two pronunciations and the origin of the word.
Finally, he added kindly, "It's likely that the textbook you're studying has an error. I suggest you check the latest revised edition of the 'English-Xuan Bilingual Dictionary'."
Everyone: “…”
I see, this is the kid's father looking for trouble.
Teacher Yao was extremely ashamed and angry.
His lips trembled and he couldn't speak.
Yan Jiuru didn't even glance at them, but said to Principal Liu, "I think we should change the class for these children. After all, they have caused a lot of trouble for Teacher Yao. I'm afraid the children will have a psychological trauma and become tired of studying.
If it’s inconvenient...”
She doesn’t know whether the child has any shadow in his heart, but who knows the extent of the shadow in Teacher Yao’s heart?
