In the early spring morning, the air is still cold, and the warmth that spring should have not arrived has yet arrived.

Without the embellishment of green grass and young shoots, and without the reminder of sand and dust, the spring in Yanjing is extremely short.

Jiang Li is a very measured and polite person, so he was able to successfully work in the president's office and become the de facto secretary of the president of the university.

He stretched, let away the afterglow of last night's drinking party, picked up his teacup and rinsed his mouth, ready to start the day's work at hand.

In the open door, a string of footsteps suddenly floated in.

He hurriedly looked up and saw several old men walking over together.

Dressed plainly, there are cloth shoes on their feet, and there are liberation shoes, and the only pair of leather shoes is too old.

But Jiang Li didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, because these were the few remaining "big names" in the University of Electrical Engineering - a few old professors who were ranked best in their respective research fields.

As he hurried to catch up, his brain was spinning, what could make these people come together?

Fortunately, they were all respected old men, and they did not embarrass Jiang Li's juniors, so they refused Jiang Li's invitation to sit down and wait for a while, and let Jiang Li go in to report.

Soon, the old principal also greeted him in person with a surprised face, and led a few people to sit down on the sofa in the reception room, and Jiang Li skillfully placed the white porcelain teacup.

"It's really rare for several people to come together!" said the old headmaster with a smile.

One of them, the oldest and most academically prestigious, said, "We are here to ask the principal something. ”

"Yo, what's worth a trip for you, just make a phone call. The old headmaster looked solemn.

The old man didn't answer the old principal's words, and asked directly: "Is there a student named Chen Yiming in our school?"

The old headmaster remained silent, "Yes, why did this name reach your ears? I haven't heard of any academic talent in him." ”

The old man said calmly: "I heard that he failed the high math last year?"

The old headmaster nodded.

"I heard that he didn't take the make-up exam and went out for a trip directly?"

The old principal shook his head, "It's not to travel, it's to do something and ask for leave with me." ”

Several people glanced at each other, there was a deep disappointment in their eyes, and the old man said: "Xiao Liu, you have led our school to develop very well over the years, and several of our old men have seen it in their eyes, and you have guaranteed us well the equipment and funds of the laboratory, and we are all grateful to you, we all feel that you are qualified to be the principal." ”

"But, Xiao Liu, you have done something wrong in this matter! Do you think that it is a big fuss for a few of us to come here for such a trivial matter? Because this is related to the foundation of our university! We are first of all a university, a place to teach and educate people, and secondly, we have all kinds of titles and reputations, and if this root is broken, no matter how beautiful it is built on the outside, it is useless, and it will be poked in the back. ”

"The old man has been proud of all his life, that is, he withstood the pressure back then, and the family members of the big man who stood up to the sky should still be hung up, and this matter is also carried down by all of us here, and now it is a beautiful conversation. Its role is not to grow anyone's face, but to erect a pole, and since then, no one in the University has dared to talk about human feelings in their studies and cheat. ”

The old man said impassionedly, "Although our university is not famous, it can stand up because of this spirit." What do you think, Headmaster?"

"I think Elder Yang is right. Principal Liu nodded solemnly, with a sincere expression.

Several old men looked stunned, and then a wave of anger rose in their hearts, do they still have to play scheming and power tricks at this time?

Elder Yang snorted, "Since this is the case, I will simply find out, that Chen Yiming, with a little name and a few cents of money, is openly absent from the make-up examination, why doesn't the principal deal with it?"

An old man also spoke, "Isn't it that in today's electricity university, some rules can be messed up, and some things can be done?"

Another old professor of the Faculty of Arts sighed, "President, in fact, I understand you, in this position, you really can't think like us old men who have nothing to worry about, you have to think about it all, you have to think about those things that affect the whole body, and you have been thinking about this very well, and the University has been doing better and better, and now you can launch an impact towards the double first-class and 985, you have contributed a lot." ”

The unexpected praise made the rest of the old men turn their heads and stare at this person, as if they were denouncing his backlash.

Principal Liu's heart tightened, waiting for the one that should have happened.

"But on this one, you are wrong. No matter how brilliant this student is in other fields, he is first and foremost a student, and the first thing we ask him to do should be academic, at least at the basic line, otherwise it will be a dereliction of duty in our education. In addition, what he deserves our appreciation should be a heart to the society, a mind that worries about the country and the people, and the courage to assume social responsibility, which is the style that college students should have in our new era. As for money and fame, it's not something we should be looking for, or something we shouldn't be touting. ”

Listening to this man's words, the rest of the old men retracted their gaze stupidly, and whispered in their hearts that they were worthy of engaging in literature, and this is reasonable, I can't say that, I can only shout or not.

Principal Liu's eyes narrowed slightly, this hat was too buttoned.

knocked over all of Chen Yiming's strengths, but people couldn't find fault with it.

Because in this ivory tower, that's political correctness.

He pondered for a while, got up and took a piece of paper in the drawer, walked over and handed it to Yang Lao with both hands, and then spoke: "You are the pillars of my university, and your ethics are also the backbone of our university. Chen Yiming's matter may be a little different from what you have heard. ”

"I didn't exercise any power to let him pass the exam, his course has been considered a waiver of the exam, and he will have to retake it with the new students next year. This is in line with the rules and discipline of our university. ”

Yang Lao looked at the fake note in his hand, it did mention this, and it had Chen Yiming's signature, it should not be a temporary forgery.

He passed the fake note down, closed his eyes and stopped talking.

After solving this most important contradiction, President Liu looked at the old professor of the Faculty of Arts and said, "As for Mr. Cai's opinion, please wait a few days, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, how about it?"

Elder Yang nodded, "The old man has no opinion." ”

The leader spoke, and the rest of the people also nodded, so wait a few days.

Yang Lao supported the armrests of the sofa with both hands and slowly stood up, "I'm disturbing the principal's work." ”

"Where, where. Principal Liu smiled and said, "But I still have one more thing to ask for, please make it convenient for you." ”

"Could you please keep today's meeting a secret for three days?"

Principal Liu's words fell, and several old professors inexplicably smelled a hint of conspiracy in their hearts.

"Good. Yang Lao sighed slightly, nodded, and then looked at the rest, "Let's make a statement, so that the principal can rest assured." ”

The rest of the people had to nod their heads, and Principal Liu hurriedly thanked him, "It's mainly about this matter, except for the parties Chen Yiming and me, no one else knows that it is handled like this, I have to talk to the Academic Affairs Office first, otherwise they will be the last to know, that is, I am an unruly leader." ”

A few old men felt a pang in their hearts, this was Principal Liu ordering them.

No one knows about this, and if it gets out, you must be a traitor.

Walking out of the building, several people who came over in a hurry were a little excited at the moment, and an old man asked Yang Lao, "Old Yang, why did you agree so simply? This shows what the principal is going to do!"

Elder Yang glanced at him, "And then?"

"We can't help him to play with power!"

Yang Lao sneered, "Do you think that a few of us who do experiments and write papers every day behind closed doors to do academic work, how did we know about Chen Yiming?"

People live a long life, and some things can't go anywhere no matter how confused they are, and Yang Lao is so little that he immediately understands that they are the guns of the people who are fighting for power.

An old man looked at Yang Lao suspiciously, "Then what's wrong with you?"

Yang Lao sighed, "Because if Xiao Liu really did that, it would be wrong." If it's not right, I should have stopped it. It doesn't matter who told me. ”

He looked at a few old fellows, "As for those administrative matters, let's do our studies behind closed doors, so let's get involved." ”

He looked at the small trees planted on the side of the electric road, "It's not easy to grow so big." ”
