Chapter 597: Expediency

In order to further promote the improvement of the education level of Linxi City, the development of private education was proposed by the new director of the Education Bureau of Linxi City as the focus of the next education development of Linxi City, the introduction of capital to encourage and support the development of private education, and the concentration of financial advantages to develop public education, which means that the education of Linxi City will really usher in a great change.

The official unveiling of this great change is about the development plan of the new economic zone in the north of Linxi City and the southwest new area of Xibei County, and the new hospital area of Linxi People's Hospital in the north of the city has also been officially built, according to the plan, the new hospital, that is, the north hospital of the Linxi City People's Hospital, will be five times the area of the old hospital, that is, the south hospital of the Linxi City People's Hospital, and the new hospital area will completely cover the entire urban area of Linxi City and several counties and cities in the north, providing better medical conditions and environment for the people of Linxi City.

The construction of Linxi Railway Station North Station has also officially started, and this North Station will completely surpass the original Linxi Station in all aspects and officially connect to the high-speed rail. At the same time, this new area has also introduced a lot of enterprises and factories, and the economic development seems to show a good prospect and trend. However, this area is still very desolate, although it is not so that "birds don't poop, chickens don't lay eggs", but it is also quite a bit off the beaten track and sparsely trafficked.

Look at it this way. If the new area wants to develop, it will take as little as five years and as long as 10 years.

By the end of October 2014, another important project to promote the economic development of the new district, the school, had been fully completed. The first phase of the new school project in the southwest new area of Xibei County has been basically completed, the brand new campus, the design of the majestic atmosphere, except for the first phase of the project covers a small area, the others can be compared with Lin Xi No. 1 Middle School.

Two conjoined rotary teaching buildings, two independent dormitory buildings, an indoor gymnasium with a huge playground, a restaurant, a ten-storey complex building, and a fountain square inside and outside the school gate, this new school shows the courage of capital everywhere.

Lin Xi is originally hilly, there are many rivers, this new school is also built by the mountains and rivers, not far from the west is undeveloped mountains and rivers, a river that is not deep or shallow turns around the new school half enclosed in it, and according to the plan, if there is a second phase of the project, the construction of the second phase will be carried out on the other side of the river, that is to say, by that time, the river will cross the school.

The scenery is beautiful and the campus is new, but there is an important question that has not yet been resolved, that is, which school to move over?

This matter has been going on for a long time, and the Linxi City Education Bureau, the Xibei County Party Committee and the Xibei County Education Bureau, Wenyue Group and the four high schools in Xibei County have been constantly discussing and negotiating.

Capital is always biased towards profit-seeking, and Wenyue Group is no exception, it is naturally more inclined to acquire schools with good grades and then obtain benefits, such as Xibei No. 1 Middle School, perhaps, this is also human nature. However, Xibei County's attitude is also very resolute, Xibei No. 1 Middle School is impossible to sell, and this school is also needed to support the education field of Xibei County. In any case, Xibei County did not dare to take Xibei No. 1 Middle School to participate in this education reform.

And Xibei No. 1 Middle School is naturally reluctant to change from public to private, especially the principal Meng Fanchang, who is very comfortable as the boss of Xibei No. 1 Middle School, once the No. 1 Middle School is changed from public to private, he can't adapt to it. Moreover, Meng Fanchang is a very traditional person, inheriting the ideas of the last century, his views are somewhat paranoid and one-sided, he has always been very resolute against the privatization of education, he believes that only public education can promote educational fairness and justice, and private education will only exacerbate the gap between the rich and the poor, making the society more unfair.

Meng Fanchang's point of view is not wrong, but he obviously can't stop the current general trend of education development and education reform, and Lin Ping more or less agrees with his point of view, but Lin Ping believes that public schools also have great drawbacks, and they can also not meet the needs of current social education development and educational equity, so Lin Ping wants to find a different school development path.

Xibei County and Wenyue Group have talked several times, but they have not been negotiated, and Wenyue Group even plans to run a school independently, but Xibei County does not agree, and sees that things are about to be yellow. The Lin Xi City Education Bureau personally came forward, which stabilized the overall situation.

The conditions given by Xibei County are that Xibei No. 2 Middle School, Xibei No. 3 Middle School and Xibei No. 4 Middle School choose one of the three, if you choose Xibei No. 2 Middle School and Xibei No. 3 Middle School, it is half sold and half sent, and if you choose Xibei No. 4 Middle School, it is almost all sent.

So, Wenyue Group sent a team to inspect three high schools, the second middle school and the third middle school two schools are mediocre, the same model, the same atmosphere, it is simply a twin brother carved out of a mold, and to Xibei No. 4 Middle School, the delegation finally brightened.

The education methods, teaching mode and school atmosphere of Xibei No. 4 Middle School, as well as the rich and colorful campus activities, show the distinctive and advanced educational concept of Xibei No. 4 Middle School in many aspects, which is also pursued and advocated by many private schools now, and these educational reforms of Xibei No. 4 Middle School have achieved good results and reverse in the school, which has been welcomed by the majority of students and established a unique campus atmosphere of Xibei No. 4 Middle School.

Then the delegation entered into an in-depth exchange with Lin Ping, the principal of Xibei No. 4 Middle School, and recognized Lin Ping more and was optimistic about the future of Xibei No. 4 Middle School. However, recognition is recognition, optimism is optimistic, Xibei No. 4 Middle School's "sparse" college entrance examination results are there, and it is still difficult for Wenyue Group to accept the acquisition of Xibei No. 4 Middle School or cooperate with Lin Ping.

No matter how good Lin Ping's ideology is, no matter how good the various conditions of Xibei No. 4 Middle School are, the results of the college entrance examination are the most fundamental and hard conditions, and this condition is a basic threshold for cooperation between the two sides, which greatly restricts the negotiation rights of Xibei No. 4 Middle School. Moreover, there is also a big gap between some of the ideas of Wenyue Group and Lin Ping, or even contrary to each other, so it is destined that the development of the new No. 4 Middle School will be greatly disturbed. Wenyue Group is unwilling to completely give Lin Ping the right to develop and operate the school, and Lin Ping does not have the strength to prove himself and obtain the leading power of the new No. 4 Middle School, so the two sides cannot negotiate at all for a while.

However, after the Xibei County Education Bureau and Wang Hongwen's efforts, Xibei No. 4 Middle School and Wenyue Group finally reached an agreement, which can be regarded as Lin Ping and Wenyue Group reached an agreement, that is, Wenyue Group will not acquire Xibei No. 4 Middle School for the time being, but temporarily lease the newly built school to Xibei No. 4 Middle School in the form of lease, and then discuss in the long run, and slowly talk about cooperation. After all, Wenyue Group has invested in a lot of real estate projects in the Linxi New Economic Zone, and is still waiting for the new school to be put into use to drive housing prices, which is the best choice for both parties.

The date for the relocation of Xibei No. 4 Middle School to a new campus has also been set, that is, January 1, 2015.
