Chapter 208: Expelled
Principal Zhou looked at Vice Principal Li coldly. He knew everything Vice Principal Li had done. "You were the one who arranged for Zhu Xiyang to come in, right? How do you think we should deal with him?"
"Xi Yang was indeed wrong in this matter. Let's suspend him from his post and keep him on probation for a period of time. After the storm is over, we can discuss in detail how to punish him," Vice President Li said in a high-sounding manner.
Some other leaders who had long disliked Vice Principal Li sneered in their hearts. What Vice Principal Li meant was nothing more than to let Zhu Xiyang stay out of the limelight first. After a few months, no one would remember the incident and he could continue to be a teacher, which was equivalent to not having any punishment.
Such partiality is really too much!
The other leaders couldn't stand it anymore.
"I think Zhu Xiyang should be fired directly," another vice principal said bluntly. "Zhu Xiyang had an inappropriate relationship with female students at school, had a corrupt style, and used the little power in his hands to threaten students, which seriously damaged the reputation of the school. He has no qualifications and character to be a teacher. If we let such a person continue to abuse his power in the school, will there be any outstanding students willing to apply to our school in the future?"
"That's right. For the sake of the school's reputation and to quell this storm, Zhu Xiyang must be expelled! And that student named Wang Nina must be expelled together," another vice principal echoed.
Principal Zhou nodded and said to the Dean of the Academic Affairs Office, "Immediately issue a notice to expel Zhu Xiyang, the piano teacher, and Wang Nina, the piano student."
The Dean of the Academic Affairs Office looked at Vice President Li with a hint of hesitation before nodding and agreeing.
...
...
No one stood on his side. Vice Principal Li looked unhappy. He turned his cunning eyes.
"This student named Liu Lan should also be expelled! Liu Lan is a troublemaker and a hidden danger. Her way of dealing with problems is too radical. If she has any demands or dissatisfaction, she can talk to us. It doesn't matter if the department head ignores her. She can talk to me directly, or other vice presidents, or even to President Zhou. Why must she post the matter on the Internet? She only cares about her own feelings and does not consider the consequences of her behavior for the school. Who will dare to teach such a student in the future? If she doesn't agree with you, she will expose you on the Internet and let thousands of people scold you."
Principal Zhou actually had some thoughts in this regard. As a school leader, he hated "mischievous" students like Liu Lan the most. Maybe if this incident was resolved, she would calm down, but Liu Lan was like an invisible bomb. No one knew when and who would touch her sensitive points, and what kind of content she would post to netizens in a fit of rage.
Such students are so scary.
"I've seen her transcript. Apart from the chamber music ensemble course, her grades weren't that good. She became famous because she played the "Butterfly Lovers" on both the guqin and the piano. It was a coincidence," Vice Principal Li continued, seeing that Principal Zhou was touched.
"Half a month ago, I personally went to watch the graduation recital of Shen Mozhen, an outstanding graduate of our school's folk music department. Liu Man happened to be a guest invited by Shen Mozhen. Performing on the same stage with her, there was really no comparison and no harm. Against the backdrop of Shen Mozhen's superb guzheng skills, Liu Man, who played the guqin, was like a clown. Her voice was all up and down, messy, as if she was deliberately disrupting Shen Mozhen's performance. It was hard to understand how she played "Butterfly Lovers"."
"I also watched the show," said another vice president. "I was really disappointed with Liu Man's performance."
"I suspect that she only knows how to play the piece "Butterfly Lovers" on the guqin. She must have practiced it for a long time and many times, so she can confuse the audience's ears. Once she changes to other pieces, she will be exposed as a coward."
Most of the principals in charge of administrative work in the school are transferred from other schools. They are not from music majors. They do not understand music, let alone the guqin. They are just like ordinary people. They think that if a piece of music sounds good, the performer is of high level, and if it does not sound good, the performer is not of high level.
The professional professors present were all from the piano department and did not understand the skills of folk music. None of them had ever watched Shen Mozhen's concert, so they did not know the situation on site and could not provide any advice.
"Besides, Liu Lan's talent for piano is obvious. She can't change her current situation just by working hard. The professors in the piano department also know her level. If we don't expel her to serve as a warning to others, other students who encounter similar things in the future may also follow her example and talk nonsense on the Internet, putting the school in the spotlight? In this case, where will the discipline of our school be? Therefore, I think it is not a pity to expel Liu Lan, but it must be done!" Vice Principal Li is a leader after all. He can talk about big principles and his reasons are very convincing.
Principal Zhou thought for a moment and said to the head of the piano department, "Add Liu Man to the expulsion notice."
Soon, the Capital Conservatory of Music's official Weibo account posted a message: "In order to strictly enforce school rules and regulations, the school leadership has decided to terminate the labor contract of Zhu Xiyang and expel Wang Nina and Liu Man. We hope that the rest of the teachers and students will take this as a warning. We hereby inform you."
Once this Weibo post was released, it caused a sensation in the entire capital's university circle.
