Chapter 0475 Tianming Scholarship
Whether at home or abroad, it is a very common thing for well-known alumni to sponsor their alma mater, especially in the Ivy League universities in the United States, alumni sponsorship is an important financial source for major universities.
Although in the eighties and nineties, there was no news of alumni sponsoring universities, but in the 21st century, such sponsorships and donations will be more and more, especially in the name of enterprises, which is a mode of school-enterprise cooperation, especially the two top universities in Qingbei in Yanjing, the amount of donations is also higher and higher.
"You mean, you want to donate five million to Runzhou Institute of Technology to build a laboratory?" Su Wangting said with some surprise.
Five million is not a small amount, especially in the early nineties, it is an astronomical amount, and the government's annual financial subsidy to Runzhou Institute of Technology is not so much, right?
"Well, I think it's a gift from my gratitude to the school for nurturing me for so many years. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.
Of course, this is only one aspect, and the more important thing is that Zhou Jingming is about to poach Su Wangting to his Tianming University as the president, and the five million is a little compensation for Runzhou Institute of Technology, with these five million, the school will be better to speak.
"But five million is too much, I can't ask you to pay for it. Su Wangting shook his head and said.
"Mr. Su, I donated in the name of Tianming Automobile Company, not in the name of one person, five million is nothing for our company. Zhou Jingming explained with a smile.
The total sales of Tianming Automobile Company in a year have reached more than 10 billion yuan, and the net profit is about 2 billion, and 5 million is really nothing for the whole company.
"This is also a way to promote our Tianming Automobile Company, and our company and Runzhou Institute of Technology have not always had a school-enterprise cooperation relationship, we show enough sincerity, and there will be more graduates willing to come to our company, which is actually a win-win situation." Zhou Jingming continued to explain.
"Then you can talk to the headmaster about this. Since Zhou Jingming said so, Su Wangting did not insist anymore, this is also a kind of social responsibility that enterprises should fulfill, Su Wangting itself is very supportive, but the amount of donations involved is too large, and it must be known by the principal of the school.
"Okay, then please ask Teacher Su to take me to meet Principal Zheng. ”
Since I came to Runzhou, I simply ended this matter at once.
As the chief expert of the Agricultural Machinery College, Su Wangting easily met Zheng Tongya, the current president of Runzhou Institute of Technology, a middle-aged man who has not yet reached the age of fifty, who was just transferred to Runzhou Institute of Technology two years ago, and Zhou Jingming had met twice before that.
After some greetings, Zhou Jingming explained to Zheng Tongya the purpose of his visit, "President Zheng, I am looking for you this time, mainly to tell you one thing, our Tianming Automobile Company is ready to donate a total of 5 million scientific research funds to Runzhou Institute of Technology, and I hope to discuss the details with President Zheng." ”
Zheng Tongya, who was sitting there, immediately asked in surprise when he heard what Zhou Jingming said, "What did you say, five million?"
In the past two years, with the reduction of government financial subsidies, the financial situation of Runzhou Institute of Technology has declined more and more, and many projects have been shelved.
At this time, Zhou Jingming suddenly said that he would donate five million to the school, how could Zheng Tongya not be surprised?
"Hmm. However, the five million must be used for the scientific research of the school, especially the automotive dynamic simulation laboratory that Mr. Su has always wanted to build, and I hope that the school can give priority to support. Zhou Jingming replied.
"These are no problem, for Su Lao wants to build a car dynamic simulation laboratory, I have always been very supportive, but the school's funding is really limited, and it can only be carried out according to the current standards, now that there is funds to improve, I am definitely willing." Zheng Tong immediately promised.
As a sunrise industry, the automobile industry has received more and more attention from the state, and the automobile major of Runzhou Institute of Technology has always been a key major, but with the rise of Tongji University in Shencheng, the status of the automobile major, Runzhou Institute of Technology has also been greatly threatened, and Zheng Tongya naturally hopes to give priority to the development of the automotive major.
"Okay, with President Zheng's words, then I can rest assured, the specific donation details, I will let the company's financial department to connect with you later. Zhou Jingming said with a smile.
"Then on behalf of Runzhou Institute of Technology, I would like to thank Mr. Zhou for his generous donation. Zheng Tongya stood up, held Zhou Jingming's right hand, and said gratefully.
After Zhou Jingming finished talking about this, Su Wangting also took the opportunity to mention Zhou Jingming's invitation to him to be the president of Tianming University, and also mentioned it to Zheng Tongya. He had just accepted Zhou Jingming's donation of five million, and he couldn't say no at this time, so Zheng Tongya agreed on the spot to let Su Wangting go to Tianming Company to work.
After everything was negotiated, Zhou Jingming and Su Wangting walked out of Zheng Tongya's office.
"Mr. Su, Tianming University is expected to be officially unveiled on the first of next month, so you should stay in Runzhou during this time. I'll pick you up when the time comes. As for the accommodation in Shencheng, you don't have to worry, the company will provide you with a house for free. Zhou Jingming paused, and then continued, "As for the donation, I'll ask someone from the finance department to come over when I go back." ”
"Okay, then I'll wait for your notification. Su Wangting nodded with a smile.
After returning to Shencheng, Zhou Jingming also immediately found the person in charge of the company's finance department, told him to make the donation clear, and asked him to go to Runzhou on behalf of Tianming Automobile Company to discuss the specific details of the donation with the school.
The next day, the staff of the company's finance department set off to Runzhou Institute of Technology to discuss the specific details of the donation, and it only took one day to get all the details done.
The Tianming Automobile Company also prepared the required funds for the first time, and the next day after discussing the details, it officially signed a donation agreement with Runzhou Institute of Technology, and Zhou Jingming and Zheng Tongya appeared at the donation ceremony.
Compared with the initial promise of 5 million yuan, when the actual donation was made, the donation amount was actually 10 million yuan!
Of the remaining 5 million, 4 million was used to invest in the rest of the school's projects, and the remaining 1 million yuan was used by Zhou Jingming to set up a scholarship.
The interest generated by this million yuan per year will be used to reward students with excellent grades in various majors to encourage them to go to the next level in their studies, and the name of the scholarship is named in the name of Tianming Company, that is, Tianming Scholarship.
