In the tea room, Fang Lang explained his thoughts and ideas in detail to Fang Tao, and only let him go after making sure that the other party fully understood.
After seeing his younger brother off, Fang Lang picked up the phone again and called his cousin Yang Kun, who was the principal of a Chinese primary school in São Paulo, to his side.
"Brother Kun, I heard that you are the principal of an elementary school and you are doing a great job!"
The two brothers from my uncle's family are both typical white people with a Chinese core. Whether it's their white skin or their blue eyes, everyone who sees them outside would think they are white. However, these two white boys who have been influenced by Chinese culture since childhood have an authentic Chinese heart.
Yang Kun graduated from a teachers' college and originally worked as a teacher in a public primary school in São Paulo. As the number of Chinese in São Paulo increased, he volunteered to do something for the Chinese. Fang Lang then commissioned him to set up a Chinese primary school in São Paulo.
The school specializes in providing elementary education for Chinese children in São Paulo. Thanks to his efforts, the school has been operating smoothly and has more than a thousand students.
After receiving Fang Lang's call today, he rushed over. When he heard Fang Lang's praise, he felt quite embarrassed.
Compared with the Fang brothers and his elder brother who is serving as the mayor's secretary in São Paulo, he feels that his job is just average, and he thinks this is related to his low level of education.
Therefore, he now studies independently after work, hoping that he can be of greater help to everyone.
...
...
"Brother, you're too kind! I can only do a few small things."
Although Yang Kun has a white appearance, he is not as strong as Fang Lang in terms of height and body shape, and looks quite gentle and refined.
Seeing the other party's shy look, Fang Lang patted the other party's shoulder, hooked the other party's shoulder, and said with a smile on his face:
"Don't underestimate yourself. What you did is not a trivial matter. Primary schools cultivate the hope of us Chinese people. Young people are our future. It is related to our future careers. How can it be a trivial matter?
Come in, let's sit down and talk!"
As he said that, he put his arm around the other person and led him into the tea room. Yang Kun, who was a relatively quiet man, was unable to resist Fang Lang's strength and was directly led into the house by him.
After being arranged to sit at the tea table, Yang Kun looked at Fang Lang strangely and said:
"Brother, how come you have time to invite me for tea?"
While Fang Lang was cleaning the tea set on the table, he looked up and glared at the other person with a smile and said:
"What are you talking about? We are brothers. It's rare that I have time to go back to Sao Paulo. Why don't I invite you over for tea?"
Although Yang Kun was young, he personally organized and set up a primary school. He certainly didn't believe that a busy man like Fang Lang would come back to invite him for tea during this unusual time.
"Brother, you are a busy man with so many things to do every day. I don't believe you have time to invite me to have tea alone.
If you have any work for me, please tell me directly. But I will follow the instructions."
After saying that, he clasped his hands together and bowed to Fang Lang in a very chivalrous manner.
Fang Lang was stunned, and looked at the other party in surprise and said:
"Where did you learn this from?"
Hearing this, Yang Kun looked at Fang Lang in confusion and said:
"Is there something wrong? Our elementary school martial arts coach said this is Chinese etiquette!"
Fang Lang suddenly realized:
"I was wondering, you didn't seem to have any experience with this before! It turns out you learned it from your martial arts coach!
What? Are you learning boxing now?"
"Of course. Now all the primary school students in our school are learning boxing, so as the principal, I certainly cannot fall behind. However, I started learning relatively late, and I am still practicing standing still. I have only learned some basic routines."
At this point Fang Lang couldn't help but give Yang Kun a thumbs up. Learning martial arts is very hard. Unexpectedly, the gentle and refined Yang Kun also started learning martial arts under the influence of such an atmosphere.
Without stopping his hands, he put down his thumb, handed the other person a cup of Da Hong Pao on a tray, and asked casually:
"Not bad, not bad, learning martial arts is good, it strengthens the body and can protect yourself. What kind of boxing did you learn?"
Yang Kun politely knocked on the teacup, thanked Fang Lang for the tea, and then clasped his hands again and said:
"Wing Chun!"
Fang Lang was obviously stunned when he heard the name, and immediately became interested.
"Oh! There is a Wing Chun gym in Sao Paulo now? Who is the boxer?"
"Yes, I heard that Uncle Xinshui found him from his hometown. The boxing gym is near the Bajiquan gym, and the master is called Ye Wen.
Wing Chun is a minor martial art? Brother, have you heard of it too?"
Fang Lang, who was drinking tea, paused when he heard the name. He didn't expect that when he mentioned it casually, his uncle would actually invite Master Ye over.
I just don’t know if there would still be Bruce Lee after Master Ye went to Brazil and history was changed.
But he just paused for a moment and didn't care too much. Judging from the current situation, there may not be a Bruce Lee in Hong Kong, but there will be countless Bruce Lees in Brazil.
Even if not, Fang Lang will create a few kung fu spokespersons like Bruce Lee.
"Of course I've heard of him. Master Ip Man is an amazing man. He even fought against the Japanese in his hometown!
Although Wing Chun is a small style of boxing, it is also a good style of boxing that can be used in actual combat. Now that you have started learning it, don't give up. Persistence can not only strengthen your body, but also provide self-defense."
As he spoke, he did not forget to glance up and down at Yang Kun's slightly thin body.
Fang Lang's words surprised Yang Kun a little, and he said in a surprised tone:
"I thought you would say it was a boxing style practiced by women! I didn't expect you to recognize Wing Chun as well. It's a bit unexpected."
"What nonsense! Boxing is not gender-specific. Anyone who can defeat the enemy is a good boxer."
After glaring at the other person with dissatisfaction, Fang Lang picked up the teacup and said.
"Okay! Okay! You're right. I can't argue with you. You should just tell me what you want me to do! I have to go to work at school this afternoon!"
When Yang Kun saw Fang Lang's eyes, he quickly begged for mercy.
Hearing this, Fang Lang did not beat around the bush and spoke directly:
"I plan to set up an education investment company under Fangyuan Group, and I want you to be in charge of the management of this company. What do you think? Do you have the courage to take on this responsibility?"
Fang Lang has made great efforts in investing in education. He does not want to simply find a professional manager to be responsible for this work. After all, this is related to the future of the entire Fangyuan Group and the future of the Chinese people.
After much thought, I think my cousin is the most suitable person. He is a practitioner in the education industry and also one of our own, so I can use him with confidence.
As for the fact that some people say that he is young, has no experience, and the company is nepotism. Come on! Fangyuan Group is a family business, of course it has to be nepotism!
Otherwise, such a company is full of professional managers, and it is not impossible to squeeze out the boss at that time, after all, the boss is Chinese. If Fang Lang did not have a large number of troops in Brazil, do you think that Brazilian capital would be so humble and polite to allow Fangyuan Group to grow and develop.
It had been eaten until not even a bone was left.
Therefore, Fang Lang didn't believe that he was not a nepotist.
On the way here, Yang Kun had been wondering what on earth he would be asked to do. Considering his own job, he guessed that it would not be much different from his current school work.
Now it seems to be as expected, but I don’t know much about this so-called education investment company, so I asked directly:
"What exactly does the Education Investment Company do? Is it to integrate all our primary schools and night schools in Brazil?"
This is already the largest scale Yang Kun could think of. After all, Fangyuan Group's investment in education in Brazil is not low, but it is too dispersed, and mostly focuses on the Chinese primary schools where he works now, and language training schools, plus the rapidly developing martial arts school.
Fang Lang was a little surprised to see that Yang Kun was calmer than he had imagined.
You have to know that this guy has only served as a primary school principal in São Paulo. Now when he heard that I was going to set up an education investment company, he seemed very calm. This can only mean that the other party may have expected it.
This forced Fang Lang to take a serious look at the other party again. It seemed that after this period of training, his little brother had matured!
Looking at Yang Kun with a smile on his face, he said:
"Education investment companies invest in education, of course. The primary schools and night schools you mentioned are only part of it. In the future, we want to become an education giant from kindergarten to university.
Now, apart from investing more in primary education such as elementary schools, we obviously do not invest enough in secondary education, let alone higher education.
Therefore, I plan to set up this education investment company to integrate and plan the educational resources under the group to avoid educational gaps. ”
I didn't expect Fang Lang to take charge of all three levels of education: primary, secondary and high school. Although there are many private schools in Brazil, he still doesn't quite understand it. After all, this investment seems a bit wasteful to him.
"Why? The Brazilian government also has many public schools! After graduating from elementary school, Chinese students should be able to adapt to the Brazilian environment. If there is no language barrier, entering a public school is also a good choice!
After all, we will have to charge fees to build private schools. It is not certain that someone will be willing to give up the free public schools and go to our private schools!"
Fang Lang smiled indifferently and said:
“You don’t quite understand how much the Chinese value education. Given Brazil’s current education system, the quality of teaching in public schools is really worrying.
In this situation, as long as Chinese people have money, they will do their best to send their children to private schools with higher teaching quality.
As long as we can ensure that the schools are strictly managed and guarantee the quality of teaching and the school's admission rate, we don't have to worry about our private schools having a lack of students.
Now, as long as the workers who work hard for our Fangyuan Group can afford to send their children to school, in this case, our school will be their first choice.
What a huge market this is.”
After hearing what Fang Lang said, Yang Kun already had a rough guess about the scale of this education investment company, and this guess made him feel a little dry in the mouth.
He swallowed hard, looked at Fang Lang with uncertainty and said:
"Brother, this is not a small project. I just graduated not long ago. It's hard for me to be a primary school principal now. Are you sure you want me to be in charge?"
Seeing that Yang Kun was a little timid, Fang Lang couldn't help but provoke him:
"Why? Are you scared?"
Yang Kun shook his head and said:
"It's not that I'm timid, I'm just afraid that I won't do well and embarrass you."
Fang Lang laughed loudly upon hearing this:
“It’s okay if you’re not timid, it’s not shameful for your own brothers to say anything.
Don't worry! We will all support you with all our strength. Don't be afraid even if you fail. We are still young. We can get up from where we fell. "
Yang Kun lowered his head in thought. To be honest, ever since the rise of the Fang family, whether it was the Fang brothers or him and his eldest brother, they had all embarked on a path that he had never dared to imagine before.
He is the weakest among his brothers, and of course he is not willing to be a primary school principal forever. However, he is worried about his lack of ability, so he has taken the initiative to start working and studying at the same time.
He just hoped that one day he could have his own career like his brothers. Now that the opportunity was in front of him, he certainly didn't want to give it up, so after a little thought, he raised his head without hesitation, looked at Fang Lang firmly, nodded seriously and said:
"Well, since you are not afraid, why should I be afraid?
Do it! "
