123 [First School Newspaper]

When Huo Yaowen was lying on the bed and sleeping, suddenly there was a knock in the house, I thought it was a dream, but the knock was getting louder and louder, he also opened his eyes in a daze, glanced at the bedroom door, rubbed his eyes, got up and put on a coat, and walked over to open the door.

"Teacher Huo is sleeping?" Uncle Wang outside the door looked at the sleepy-eyed Huo Yaowen and said apologetically: "Excuse me, Teacher Huo, you are resting, Director Huang just called and asked me to inform you that the principal is back, and they are all waiting for you in the school conference room." ”

"Out of the way. Huo Yaowen rubbed his face, and the cold air outside came in, which made him feel a lot more energetic: "Principal, he's back?"

"Well, principal, they are waiting for you in the conference room, then I won't disturb Teacher Huo to change clothes. Uncle Wang saw that Teacher Huo was still wearing pajamas, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

"Got it, I'm sorry for you, Uncle Wang. After Huo Yaowen thanked him, he turned around and closed the door, changed his clothes, went to the bathroom and washed himself with cold water, and then packed up his image and walked in the direction of the school conference room.

.....

At about ten o'clock in the morning, Le Pinchun hurriedly returned to the principal's office, thinking about the recent financial difficulties caused by the construction of student dormitories, he couldn't help but rub his temples and have a headache.

According to the discussions with the Governor and the Education Department last year, the Education Department and the Governor's Office will allocate a little money for the construction of the school, but at the beginning of this year, the Chief Secretary announced that it would implement six years of free compulsory education in Kowloon in the second half of this year, and allocate 20 million yuan for the compulsory education ordinance, which also led to an indefinite delay in the funding of the University of Hong Kong.

As the only two universities in Hong Kong, almost most of the buildings of the school have been donated by gentlemen, businessmen and celebrities, and almost every year they can receive a large amount of donations from business people from all walks of life.

However, this year, most of the school's funds were used to purchase new department equipment and teachers, so the original intention to rebuild the new dormitory building was put on hold, and the Mei Hall and the Rite Hall, which had collapsed a few years ago, were renovated and rebuilt on the same site.

Le Pinchun rubbed his temples for a while, then put down his hands, sighed, and reached out to pick up the coffee that the secretary had just made on the table and took a sip, when he suddenly noticed a strange newspaper on the table, and when he picked it up, the words written on the top of the newspaper were actually "The University of Hong Kong Weekly School Newspaper".

Le Pinchun raised his eyebrows, frowned suspiciously, and then came over in a trance, only then did he remember that Huo Yaowen had told him that he wanted to run a school newspaper before, but he didn't expect that the school newspaper had been published just a few days after the start of school.

After returning to school a few days before the start of school, they heard Director Huang and the president of the student union say that the students of the student union can participate in the editorial work of the school newspaper and get credits.

After only a few days of hard work, he arranged the contents of the first issue of the school newspaper and sent it to the publishing house, and after Wu Liande reviewed it, and confirmed that there were no major problems, he arranged for Zhang Zhide to have the workers of the printing house print 1,000 copies of the school newspaper with a lead printing press and distribute them to all departments of the University of Hong Kong.

Although it is only a school newspaper, it still follows the pattern of regular newspapers outside, with four pages and four sections, and the content of each page is fixed, which is slightly different from the newspapers outside.

Le Pinchun looked at the newspaper, but his eyes noticed the article written on the front page: "

Since the re-establishment of the University of Hong Kong Press at the end of last year, at the insistence of Mr. Fok Yiu-man, President of the University of Hong Kong Press, the University of Hong Kong Press has successfully won the order for the textbooks and books of free compulsory education in Kowloon by the Education Department at a price lower than the cost price half a month ago......

Mr. Fok Yiu-man, a graduate of the University of Hong Kong Class of '66, is our senior and a lecturer in the school's philosophy course, he is committed to the development of basic education for children and adolescents in Hong Kong, and has hired a number of well-known professors and lecturers in the school to compile teaching materials for young people, which has provided great help for more children and teenagers to be admitted to the University of Hong Kong in the future......

At the suggestion of Mr. Fok Yiu-man, the University of Hong Kong Newspaper was strongly supported by the President of the University of Hong Kong, and handed over to the Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Director Wong, and the Student Union to be responsible for the ......"

Le Pinchun looked at the content reported in the school newspaper, and couldn't help frowning, he knew about the order from the Education Department, but he had been busy opening a new department recently, but he didn't expect that the University of Hong Kong Press would win the order, or at a price lower than the cost!

The current situation of the publishing house, Le Pinchun did not know much, at that time agreed to cooperate with Huo Yaowen, mainly because Director Huang and others persuaded on the side, plus the school really needs to re-establish a publishing house of its own, after all, the opponent Chinese University also established a publishing house in the middle of last year, specializing in publishing some academic books on campus, he agreed.

But he didn't expect Huo Yaowen to actually win the order from the Education Department, which made Le Pinchun a little unexpected, and after pondering for a moment, he picked up the phone on the table and dialed Director Huang.

......

At half past eleven o'clock in the morning, the school had just finished class, and many students walked towards the cafeteria in twos and threes.

In the largest cafeteria in the school.

Zhang Yingying took Xu Anhua's arm and walked towards the restaurant, and in the process of queuing, she suddenly noticed that the rice bowl was actually full of stacks of newspapers, and when she got closer, it read "The University of Hong Kong University Newspaper!"

Curiously picked it up and looked at it, Zhang Yingying suddenly said in surprise: "Teacher Huo!"

"What Teacher Huo?" Xu Anhua, who was standing in the back queue, poked his head out suspiciously, glancing at the newspaper Zhang Yingying was holding in his hand.

Zhang Yingying spread out the newspaper and happily pointed to the above paragraph: "Look, Mr. Huo is the president of the school publishing house!"

Xu Anhua came over to take a look, the front page of the newspaper was written the University of Hong Kong newspaper, and the following content was a bold sign: "The University of Hong Kong Press", and looking down, the content of the article was probably to report that after Mr. Huo became the president of the publishing house, he successfully won the order of the Education Department and made contributions to Hong Kong's basic education......

"Then will Teacher Huo still teach?" Xu Anhua frowned, remembering half a month of substitute teaching for Anna last year.

Zhang Yingying was stunned for a moment, and at the same time worried, she also said: "Ah? It should be still, isn't tomorrow a philosophy class? ”

......

At the same time, many faculty members in the offices of the University of Hong Kong have found an extra newspaper on their desks when they return to their offices after class.

Zhang Chengyi picked up the school newspaper on the table and read it, after reading the first article on the front page, he couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect his student to be so cheeky, he actually boasted about himself in the newspaper in the first issue of the school newspaper, but after reading the article carefully, he noticed that "I won the order for textbooks and books from the Education Department at a price lower than the cost price" , but he frowned, he knew that the financial situation of the publishing house had not been very good, and he couldn't understand why Huo Yaowen still had to win orders at a price lower than the cost when the finances were not good, could it be true that as the newspaper said, it was to contribute to the development of basic education in Hong Kong?

Huo Yaowen, who didn't know everything, walked through most of the campus and came to the school conference room, knocked on the door of the conference room, and noticed that the principal Le Pinchun and Director Huang were sitting inside.
