Chapter 997: Hundreds of People and Millions of People Plan
If it weren't for the call from Student Union Assistant Ying Caiying, Zhou Anan, who was too excited that morning, almost forgot what she had promised to do to Dean Shi.
Yesterday was Monday, and all the new freshmen of Haizhou University had reported. Today was the first day of military training and also the day of the welcome party.
According to previous years' practice, the welcome party was held three times over three nights on three campuses, which was a huge waste of manpower and resources.
Especially since the third campus of Haizhou University, which is still under construction and in its first year of operation, has only a few hundred freshmen, it is really troublesome to ask all the participants of the program to travel a long way to Haizhou District.
Under the coordination of the school student union, this year's welcome party was held in the auditorium of the second campus. Students from the first and third campuses took the buses arranged by the school to watch.
It only takes one night to complete, and it can save the school student union nearly 15,000 yuan.
"That's it?"
After a good rest in the afternoon, ten minutes before the welcome party started, Zhou Anan received two printed pages from her assistant Ying Caiying.
The speech was nearly several thousand words long, with no traces of copying and pasting, and the words were full of girlish romance, which made Zhou Anan, who was preparing to give an impromptu speech, feel embarrassed to refuse.
However, according to the speech, it is a bit shameful for such a grown man like him.
Forget it, I'll just borrow the beginning and the end, and fill in the content in between myself.
"Yes."
Seeing the president's expression, Ying Caiying, who thought that her writing was not very good, lowered her head in embarrassment.
“Well written.”
After praising the other person, Zhou Anan ignored the other person's sparkling eyes and walked towards the first row of the seating area.
I don't know who arranged for such a low-key person to sit in the first row with school leaders and next to the president.
This is not just ranking him, the president of the school student union, above the vice-president. He has no political awareness at all.
Um, it seems that this is the responsibility of Vice President Che Mengheng. At that time, I wanted to ask him to take a look, but Zhou Anan, who was too lazy to care about such trivial matters, casually refused.
Forget it. I’m familiar with several principals and deans anyway, so I might as well just chat with old friends.
"Who is that leader sitting in the middle of the row?"
A freshman sitting upstairs, holding a telescope he had borrowed from an old senior, saw a school leader who was too young sitting next to the principal and asked curiously.
"Which one?"
"Hmm, the one sitting on the principal's left."
"I can't see it clearly, just the back of the head."
"Forget it, the beautiful host is out. The senior in the middle is so pretty. The senior really didn't lie to me. I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don't bring a telescope."
"Let me see it, let me see it."
"Don't worry, I haven't seen enough."
At this time, Zhou Anan, who had greeted the principals, also turned her attention to the pretty junior girl with short hair on the stage.
It seems that her name is Kim Young-hye. It is a very heroic name that is very impressive.
"Now, please welcome our beloved Principal Liang."
"Now, please welcome our lovely and amiable President Zhou of the Student Union."
Thinking of the senior who was about to go on stage, Kim Young-hye's beautiful big eyes stared at the handsome guy in the middle of the first row of the audience.
“.”
When Zhou Anan heard the name from the pretty junior school girl, she had an urge to refuse to go on stage.
Whoever wrote this speech, I will definitely demote the person in question. Did they really think that he, the president of the student union who is about to step down, is a Hello Kitty?
However, now is not the time to hold anyone responsible. Zhou Anan stepped onto the stage and began her routine speech: "Dear leaders, fellow freshmen, good evening."
“Perhaps some of my juniors have some misunderstandings about the teaching profession. After all, in-service teachers in some places have very low salaries, while in-service teachers in some places have very high salaries, and the additional income is even higher.”
"Starting next year, I will set up an education fund and set aside 10 million yuan every year to reward 100 outstanding teachers who graduated from Haizhou University. Whether they are full-time or part-time, as long as they are engaged in education, they will be considered. Of course, those full-time teachers with high extra income will be excluded."
Halfway through her words, Zhou Anan mentioned a sudden idea that came to her mind today and spoke it out directly.
As the basic source of teachers for Zhuangyuan Education, 10 million yuan was set aside to reward those teachers who graduated from Haizhou University and are rooted in the grassroots. There are many hidden benefits besides the fame.
No one would have known that in the next decade or so, a series of strange phenomena would appear in primary and secondary education in Jiangxi Province.
In some places, the income from tutoring for teachers in urban areas is higher than their salary, but in some rural mountainous areas, teachers can only survive on salary subsidies. Those with a stronger sense of responsibility will even use their salary to subsidize students.
Skyrocketing housing prices and depreciating deposits have made the popularity of entrance exams to the education systems of many cities increasingly high year by year.
You know, the salary of teachers in urban areas is naturally one level lower than that in rural areas, and the subsidy differs by several thousand yuan a year. However, all the teachers in rural and mountainous areas are trying their best to move to the city, and their purpose is self-evident.
In this process, certain abnormal values are subtly influencing the flowers of the motherland.
To the best of her ability, Zhou Anan hopes to use her actions to correct the values of teachers among Haizhou University graduates who will work in the education industry in the future.
If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world.
He cannot take care of the whole world with his ability, but he hopes to plant a seed for his younger classmates majoring in teaching in the small piece of land of Haizhou University from now on.
A seed called conscience.
"Wow"
Zhou's impromptu idea triggered a heated brainstorming session among the audience, especially the school leaders present.
An education fund of 10 million yuan every year, benefiting hundreds of people, is no small matter. It is specially established for graduates of Haizhou University.
If this matter were to become known, it would definitely be a major event in the domestic education community for Haizhou University.
It plays an immeasurable role in enhancing the overall image of Haizhou University.
However, for such a big thing, these school leaders were not notified in advance and knew about it at the same time as the freshmen present. The school student union president’s actions were really lovely.
“I just hope everyone can stay true to themselves and stick to themselves.”
After announcing the annual reward plan of tens of millions, Zhou Anan began to talk to the freshmen about life and ideals, and gave them some chicken soup for the soul.
Nowadays, only if you have money can you talk about your ideals in life; without money, you are nothing.
Money is the root of all evil, but it is also the basic material foundation for the survival of many educators who silently cultivate the small garden of our motherland.
Since he feels that he has no place to spend his money now, it would be a beneficial and interesting thing to let these alumni help him spend it.
"Senior is so handsome."
Standing backstage, Kim Young-hye listened attentively to the speech of the handsome senior, with stars in her eyes and she was so excited that she couldn't control herself.
Such an idealistic and exemplary senior is worthy of her admiration.
".I have said so many inspirational words without realizing it, so I will not continue to take up your precious time. In the end, I wish you all a fulfilling four years at Haizhou University."
Although he said a lot of inspirational words, Zhou Anan only spent seven or eight minutes and quickly finished this round of speech.
The principal's speech lasted only 10 minutes, and as a student he couldn't afford to talk too much nonsense.
"Huahuahua"
Compared to the perfunctory applause after the principal's speech, the audience burst into extremely warm applause as soon as the student union president finished his speech.
Although they had no specific idea about the reward plan of 100,000 yuan per person, the annual education fund of 10 million yuan sounded very impressive, which did not prevent them from admiring this awesome senior.
Originally, they were all considered to be failures in the college entrance examination, and they were not particularly happy about entering these two colleges.
However, at this welcome party, they suddenly discovered that there was such an awesome senior in their school. The feeling they felt was really indescribable.
"Principal, I'm sorry that I made the decision on the education fund without consulting you in advance. Please forgive me."
When Zhou Anan returned to her seat, she was not aware that her speech had changed the decadent mentality of many of her junior classmates, but she sincerely apologized to Principal Liang next to her.
Although establishing an education fund is his personal matter, it concerns the teacher graduates of Haizhou University over the years. As a student, he must always maintain the tradition of respecting teachers, which is very important for his future development.
"You did a great job, better than any of us old guys. Who can I blame you?"
Hearing the apology from this outstanding student, Liang Jinge did not put on airs as a principal. He responded gently and then talked about another matter: "Dean Shi previously told me that you acquired a private high school in Hangzhou. Although our Haizhou University is a second-tier university, we would like to jointly organize a direct promotion class with your private high school to improve the quality of teaching. I wonder if you are interested in cooperating?"
In return, this student is about to graduate and still wants to contribute to Haizhou University. How can he, as a president, remain indifferent?
"Well, I own two private high schools. Principal, can you give me the opportunity to join the direct-admission class at the private high school in my hometown of Lizhou?"
Faced with the principal's tactful inquiry, Zhou Anan somewhat embarrassedly proposed new conditions.
Hangzhou is the capital of Jiangxi Province, and many parents are not familiar with the relatively "remote" Haizhou University. He had previously mentioned this direct admission class to Dean Shi, but it was a choice made out of helplessness.
A few days ago, he talked about this with Professor Mei and found out that the other party had already had a countermeasure.
The 10 million yuan teaching award program that started this year is aimed at improving Mingli High School's college entrance examination results next year in a short period of time, so as to negotiate cooperation with a first-class university, Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, to organize direct-entry classes. The matchmaker is naturally Ye Huaian, one of the shareholders.
Compared with Mingli High School located in the provincial capital, Lizhou High School needs the reputation of this direct-entry class more to improve the enrollment quality of Lizhou High School.
Unlike Hangzhou, a private high school in a small county town in Lizhou has a direct admission class to a public undergraduate university, which is a great temptation for many parents of students with average grades.
Even parents of students of upper-middle or lower-income families will buy insurance, and money is not a problem at all.
The effect this can cause is enough to allow Professor Mei to extend his enrollment plan for Lizhou High School for five years.
"Sure, send me a copy of the information about the private high school in Lizhou."
After a slight pause, Liang Jinge did not go back on his words.
How could he, a principal, go back on his words?
Putting the direct-entry classes in Lizhou can be said to be supporting the education cause in Lizhou, and there will be relatively less resistance in reporting to the higher authorities for approval.
What he didn't expect was that in such a short period of time, this senior student would have an additional private high school under his control.
No wonder they dare to boast about establishing an education fund that awards tens of millions every year. They do have the capital to do so.
Even if Haizhou University has extra funds, it is impossible for them to set up such an education fund. If students take the initiative to preside over it, there will be no obstacles.
Haizhou University is fortunate to have such students.
"Thank you, Principal."
Hearing that the principal did not refuse, Zhou Anan, who originally felt that she was being too demanding, was overjoyed and thanked him with a smile.
It seems that he has been having better luck recently.
Zhou Anan, who was watching the welcome party, had no idea what kind of response her speech would cause.
Communications are now relatively advanced, and while general news may spread a little slowly, more explosive news can spread throughout the world overnight.
Although the freshmen were in the auditorium, it did not stop them from spreading this explosive news.
TT groups and WeChat accounts are like information links. Before the welcome party was over, the "10 million yuan personal education fund of the president of the student union" and the "10 million yuan reward plan for 100 alumni of Haizhou University" had spread throughout the entire Haizhou University campus.
In the entire Haizhou University, the number of students majoring in teacher education accounts for one-third. Such hot news naturally attracted everyone's attention.
The campus network, which was usually very quiet, suddenly became lively. Posts seeking verification or confirmation were increasing in number of views by dozens, almost causing the campus network to crash again.
"Xiao Xia, do you know?"
Wang Min, who was working part-time at a training class, walked quickly to his friend and asked a mysterious question after all the students were picked up by their parents.
"What?"
Shi Mingxia, who had no classes scheduled this semester and was helping with some affairs in a training class, had no time to read TT news.
"Your boyfriend wants to set up an education fund with tens of millions of yuan in rewards every year. Our Haizhou University's teacher graduates who work in the education industry have the opportunity to receive rewards from this fund. There are 100 people every year."
Wang Min was as shocked as everyone else who heard the news for the first time. She found a good friend to confide in and asked about it in a rush.
10 million, 100,000 per person, what does that mean?
As far as she knew, the annual salary of a formal teacher in Lucheng was only 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. In her hometown of Yushan, the salary was a little more, but not much more.
In other words, if a teacher can receive Zhou Anan’s education fund award, he or she can get an extra year and a half of salary for free, which is really nice to think about.
I wonder if she can get this award if she becomes a teacher in the future based on their classmate relationship?
"Oh, An An mentioned this to me before."
After digesting what his friend said, Shi Mingxia nodded thoughtfully.
When she was chatting with her boyfriend, he did mention this idea, which should be related to something that made him happy today, so he put the plan into practice in advance.
Just like now even Wang Min knows about it. Considering her boyfriend’s schedule for tonight, there’s no need to ask. It must have been brought up by her boyfriend during his speech at the welcome party.
At this moment, Shi Mingxia felt extremely proud of her boyfriend, but she also felt a little bit anxious that couldn't be shaken off.
"You didn't even tell me this explosive news in advance. You know I just saw this news in the TT group."
Listening to Wang Min's chattering, Shi Mingxia, who was a little dazed, seemed to have her soul floated to her boyfriend, enjoying a different kind of glory.
You, why are you so excellent???
In the first game of the new season, I got an MVP, but my teammates sucked. I want to drop to bronze and bully noobs. Anyone want to join me? ? ?
