Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.
Chapter 382: The Game of All Parties, the Big Man Among the Little People
After exchanging greetings with the school teachers and leaders, Hao Qiang followed the principal and other school leaders for a walk around the school.
The TV station's photographers followed closely behind, capturing every wonderful moment.
"The school has changed slightly in the years since you graduated," Principal Zhang said slowly. "Thanks to your generous donation, we've installed air conditioners in our classrooms and offices.
When the hot summer comes, students can calm down and read, and their learning efficiency is indeed much better.
Especially in the past two years, both the second-tier and first-tier lines have increased significantly.
This year, 11 graduating students passed the first-tier line.
But in recent years, there has only been one candidate who scored over 600 points, which is difficult.
Back then, you and Han Qingying created a miracle, a miracle that is still difficult to replicate!"
Hao Qiang nodded slightly, knowing full well that certain current situations could not be changed by his own efforts.
It is still a difficult road for children from poor families to enter key universities.
There are seven or eight hundred candidates for the Second High School every year, but only about ten of them pass the key line. This is much better than in previous years.
Some years, there are no more than three.
"The educational resources in Guangxi Province are poor. In this year's college entrance examination, the highest score in the science subject in the province was 694 points, but there were only 75 candidates in the province who scored above 650 points. The gap in high scores is too outrageous, and the situation in 2008 is even less optimistic." Principal Zhang shook his head and sighed.
Parents from well-off families directly buy houses in other provinces and send their children to school there.
There are more than 300,000 candidates in the province, but only two or three thousand are admitted to 985 universities. The 985 rate is less than 1%, only 0.823%, ranking last in the country.
The 985 admission rate in Henan Province is 0.857%, which is the second lowest in the country.
Shanghai, Didu and Tianjin are the top three cities in the country in terms of 985 university admission rates, all above 5%.
A moment later, Hao Qiang and the principal came to the wall of honor.
A special column dedicated to Hao Qiang's personal honors has been set up on the wall, displaying his college entrance examination transcript, a copy of his admission letter, graduation photos, photos with his teachers, and even a photo of the desk he used back then.
Fortunately, the principal was wise enough to leave these precious photos behind. Now even the desk that Hao Qiang used is properly preserved.
Hao Qiang stopped and gazed at these objects in his memory, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
Although he has achieved great success over the years, he always remembers the nourishment and support given to him by his alma mater.
Seeing that Hao Qiang was watching with great interest, Principal Zhang knew that his decision was correct.
This young man also likes nostalgia.
Hao Qiang looked for a while, turned around and left, walking around to other parts of the school.
The campus is not very big and it doesn't take much time to walk around.
The school’s football field track is a cinder track.
Hao Qiang remembered that after running a few laps on it, his nostrils would be covered with a layer of black.
If the wind is strong, the calves will be covered with a layer of black ash.
However, there are many rainy days in Guangxi Province, and this kind of coal slag runway is very useful after being rained on and no water accumulates.
The school has no money, otherwise they would definitely build a plastic track.
The cheapest breathable plastic track generally costs between 70 yuan and 125 yuan per square meter.
With 8 standard 400-meter running lanes and open space, the plastic area can reach 5,000 square meters.
As a result, the cheapest breathable plastic track costs at least 35 yuan.
If you use a slightly better mixed plastic track, or even a better all-plastic plastic track, the cost will be twice as much.
As for prefabricated plastic membranes, they are too luxurious, but difficult to maintain.
Future Technology Group and Laojia Primary School also built football fields, which use a fully plastic track. It cost one million yuan just to pave the track.
After the viewing, the principal took Hao Qiang and his father to the conference room to sit, drink tea and chat.
Along the way, Principal Zhang did not talk about the school's difficulties. It was not easy to bring up such things proactively, but several school leaders were a little anxious.
After chatting for a while,
A vice-president informed that Wei Shuji and several county leaders came upon hearing the news.
"Hao Qiang, it looks like they're targeting you." Principal Zhang whispered to Hao Qiang, "Well, you can handle this yourself, hehe."
For many years, county leaders have never visited the Second High School, and even the director of the Education Bureau rarely comes.
As soon as Hao Qiang arrived today, they all rushed over.
To be honest, Principal Zhang was a little unhappy, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, he is the leader, and my ability to become the principal depends on the appointment of the Education Bureau.
However, Hao Qiang's position is extraordinary.
As the country's richest man, well-known entrepreneur, philanthropist, and top scientific research talent, he has won many honors: National Model Worker, Youth Model, Provincial Leading Talent, etc.
Even without a government position, his social influence is enough to make city-level leaders treat him with courtesy, let alone county leaders.
"They're here, it's no big deal. Let them come in and sit down." Hao Qiang disagreed.
During the Chinese New Year, the leaders of Guicheng came to visit him at his home. Except for the county’s top leader who was able to enter the house, other county leaders could only wait outside the villa.
Soon, the vice principal led several county leaders to the conference room, and Principal Zhang stood up to greet them.
County Party Secretary Wei Peng walked ahead. When he saw Hao Qiang, he said with a smile, "Mr. Hao, we heard that you were going to give a speech at the Second University Anniversary. We also wanted to come and listen and learn. We hope we didn't disturb you."
"Wei Shuji is too polite. We are old acquaintances." Hao Qiang stood up and shook hands and greeted Wei Peng and other county leaders. Other accompanying personnel did not receive this honor.
After the greetings, everyone took their seats.
Wei Peng sat next to Hao Qiang, and other county leaders took their seats in turn.
Principal Zhang and the vice principal sat a little further away, looking a little uncomfortable.
Wei Peng said, "Mr. Hao, it is truly an honor for Heng County that you can return to your alma mater to give a speech."
Hao Qiang smiled and replied, "Nothing much. I just wanted to share some life experiences with my junior classmates and talk about my growth process and entrepreneurial experience."
"That must be very inspiring," Wei Peng agreed. "Mr. Hao, your achievements really make us in Guangxi proud."
Hao Qiang changed the subject: "Today is the anniversary of my alma mater. I hope that my alma mater will develop better and better, and I also hope that our county will pay more attention to education."
He reminded that today's protagonist is Ergao and the topic should be education, not Hao Qiang himself.
Hao Qiang's words subtly changed the atmosphere in the conference room.
Wei Peng nodded thoughtfully, and other county leaders also looked like they were listening attentively.
Principal Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Hao Qiang with gratitude.
Wei Peng took the opportunity to continue the conversation and said, "Mr. Hao is absolutely right.
Education is indeed the foundation of our county’s development.
Principal Zhang, does your No. 2 High School have any new plans or difficulties in education?
Principal Zhang was surprised the conversation suddenly turned to him, and said in a flustered tone, "We've been working hard to improve teaching quality, but we do face some difficulties, such as recruiting outstanding teachers... But the difficulties we encounter are numerous and difficult to resolve."
After saying this, Principal Zhang also understood one thing. As long as he had a good relationship with Hao Qiang, he would not be afraid of offending the county leaders. As for the leaders of the Education Bureau, he would be even less afraid.
Hao Qiang interjected at the right moment: "Equipment and other issues are easy to solve and don't cost much. What really matters is the local people's attitude towards education and the introduction of excellent teachers.
There is a huge gap compared to ordinary middle schools in provincial capitals, not to mention key middle schools.”
After hearing this, Wei Peng looked thoughtful and said, "This issue really needs attention. Our county should increase investment in education, especially in hardware facilities."
Hao Qiang said: "I can donate the school's experimental equipment and the laying of plastic running tracks, which are just small things.
As for education policy, the county needs more support.”
He felt that it would be difficult to advance by relying solely on Hao Qiang's donations, and that the county had to pay attention to it.
Since we are here, we have to talk about education.
Hao Qiang's willingness to attend the school anniversary has already indicated his willingness to donate. He just took a walk around with the principal and has a rough idea of what areas need improvement.
Principal Zhang was overjoyed upon hearing this and expressed his gratitude to Hao Qiang.
Just the two items mentioned by Hao Qiang would require one million yuan in funding.
Wei Peng also took the opportunity to express his opinion: "We are deeply touched by Mr. Hao's kind act.
The county will also increase its support for education, especially in terms of teacher salaries and training.”
Principal Zhang was deeply moved. He did not expect that Hao Qiang's arrival not only brought donations, but also prompted the county leaders to pay attention to education.
This meeting, which could have been just a formality, may become an opportunity to promote the development of local education.
Today, the director of the county education bureau also came, but he didn't expect the problem to turn to him.
Since all the county leaders were there, he couldn't interrupt and could only nod frequently.
Oh, I shouldn’t have come.
But I can’t not come.
The discussion continued for a while and the atmosphere became increasingly heated.
At this time, it was almost ten o'clock.
On the basketball court, more than 3,000 teachers and students from the school have already taken their seats, waiting for the leaders to come down for a meeting.
Hao Qiang agreed to give a speech, which is a very rare opportunity.
The students' parents and alumni were sitting behind the students, also waiting for Hao Qiang's speech.
"Everyone, it's already past ten o'clock. Let's go downstairs. We can't let the students wait any longer. Their study time is precious." Hao Qiang looked at the time and reminded.
Everyone agreed and quickly stood up with Hao Qiang.
