The Standing Committee members were filled with righteous indignation, not because of their own selfish interests, but because of their grievances for the deputy mayor in charge of education.

"Vice Mayor Xiang is in charge of education, does she agree to this matter?" the Standing Committee member pointed to Xiang Qing, the female deputy mayor in charge of education.

Xiang Qing's face was not good-looking, but he also explained: "Director Hua discussed with me before, although I am in charge of education, but this matter is not only an internal matter of education, but also involves the interests of various departments, so it is more appropriate for me to ask Director Hua to ask the mayor to decide." ”

Indeed, among the cadres present at the meeting, which one did not need to solve the problem of schooling for the children of the cadres under his command? And which one did not trouble Xiangqing about studying for the children of three relatives and six relatives, and even directly disturbed the principal? Why did the telephones of the principals of several high-quality schools in the city turn off during the summer vacation? It was really too much to disturb, and there were so many degrees, but no leader could afford to bear the blame. Whoever eats the sin is burying a pit for himself, and the principals are bitter.

After listening to Xiang Qing's explanation, the Standing Committee frowned.

Almost all the participants frowned.

The mayor cleared his throat and said in a rhythm that slowed down in an anxious mood: "So I called everyone together today to discuss this matter with you. Director Hua is a new official, it is not easy, he has this enrollment reform idea of the original intention, is to better promote educational equity, want to let every child have the opportunity to go to a good school, although the lottery method can not benefit every child, but how much can benefit as much, step by step work slowly, let's discuss, each of us should support Director Hua, starting from everyone of us here, lead by example, do not cause trouble to education. ”

Everyone heard it, and the mayor made it clear that he wanted to support Hua Jianmin.

The Standing Committee members have always dared to say and do, and rushed to the front. He pointed at Xiang Qing and said, "I can follow what the mayor said and not cause trouble to education, but can education not cause trouble to other departments?"

The Standing Committee's words struck Xiang Qing's sore spot, and the expression on her face was slightly distorted.

Every year, there are many infrastructure projects in schools, and it is necessary to contact the housing and urban development departments; for example, in special education, the identification of disabled children must go to the relevant departments of hospitals; and the high school entrance examination must not trouble the public security departments to maintain security, and so on. There is a way to exchange courtesy, and no matter how much hard other departments have done for education, education can pat the ass and take it for granted, without giving one or two things in return? Solving the problem of everyone's schooling is the most direct feedback, and it is also the only thing that education can do.

"Education has caused a lot of trouble to various departments, and I would like to thank you for your continued support for the education business I am in charge of, and I hope that no matter what the outcome of today's discussion is, I will continue to support education as always. Xiang Qing said, got up and bowed to everyone.

The sadness of a female deputy mayor is unmistakable.

There was a sudden silence at the scene.

The mayor looked at Hua Jianmin and said, "Jianmin, since you proposed this enrollment reform, you should explain to everyone the matters related to this reform." ”

Hua Jianmin nodded, he stood up neither humble nor arrogant, and there was a kind of firmness on his young and handsome face. He said: "I am the director of education, and it is my mission to seek education and welfare for the masses......"

He is the director of education, the director of education of the whole city, not the director of education of three relatives and six relatives.

"Educational equity is the unity of social reality and educational ideals, from the fairness of the starting point, the fairness of the process to the fairness of the result, is the eternal concept pursued by people, to ensure that everyone enjoys equal rights and obligations to receive education, to provide relatively equal opportunities and conditions for education, but also the direction and goal of the country in the field of education, but the development of educational equity has a certain relativity......

Hua Jianmin's exposition lasted for three hours, and the scene was silent, only his firm and peaceful voice.

When Hua Jianmin bowed to everyone to show that he had finished his elaboration, the mayor took the lead in applauding.

The mayor said: "I agree with Comrade Hua Jianmin's words, I also have to reflect on myself, although I am not a local, all of you here are Taoli people, but our identity is the same, we are all servants of the people, we have the same responsibility on our shoulders, we must work for the welfare of the people of Taoli City, not only education, all our departments and all cadres are the same......"

The mayor reflected not only on himself, but also on the basis of a deep reflection for everyone present.

There is a voice that believes that the mayor is a foreigner, not a Taoli person, so he supports Hua Jianmin's reform because he has no worries, because he has no three relatives and six relatives in Taoli City, and no seven aunts and eight aunts, so he can be selfless and fair, and at this meeting, the mayor officially broke this voice.

The mayor's words and Hua Jianmin's words made everyone present fall into a kind of reflection.

They are not only the children of parents, the parents of children, the relatives of relatives, and friends of friends, but they are also public servants who have to undertake the mission and responsibility of working for the well-being of all the people.

The mayor also said: "In fact, if Director Hua's reform is really implemented, it is to help everyone, protect everyone, and let everyone not make mistakes." ”

Once an open lottery is implemented, and on the basis of zoning enrollment, the remaining places are drawn to the children of migrant workers, urban migrant workers, and other migrant workers, then all the backdoor relationships will no longer work, and corruption will be eliminated and cadres will be protected from erosion.

The meeting, which lasted until the end of the evening, not only approved Hua Jianmin's enrollment reform plan, but also decided to plan and build several schools in the urban area to alleviate the pressure of a large number of migrant workers pouring into the city to earn a living, resulting in a shortage of places in the urban area.

After the meeting, on the way home, Hua Jianmin looked at the city lights and traffic, and then looked up at the moon in the sky, he felt tired and happy.

Unconsciously took out the mobile phone, found the name of Shen Wenxue in the mobile phone book, and the corners of his lips curved.

Shen Wen left his phone number when he submitted the report, and he saved it.

After a shake, the phone was dialed out, and Hua Jianmin didn't have time to hang up, so the phone was connected.

"Hello, who are you?"

The voice of the young female teacher on the other end of the phone came.

Hua Jianmin had no choice but to say, "Teacher Shen, I'm Hua Jianmin, thank you." ”

The phone called inexplicably, hung up inexplicably, and Shen Wenxue stared at the phone a little confused: Who is Hua Jianmin?

Suddenly surprised: Director Hua!

She should have thanked him, why did he still thank her?

Shen Wenxue immediately dialed back, but Hua Jianmin's mobile phone was already out of power and turned off.

A private car stopped next to Hua Jianmin, the window rolled down, and Cai Youyou poked his head out of the driver's seat: "Little uncle, why don't you hang up the phone for me? My parents asked me to pick you up and go to the house for dinner." ”

Cai Youyou, Hua Jianmin's driver, is also the stepson of Hua Jianmin's friend Zhu Guozhong.
