Chapter 19 Let's donate ten buildings first
When he returned to the room and opened the mailbox, Fang Jueyu had indeed received an invitation letter from his alma mater, Haihua No. 2 Middle School.
"Dear Class of 2016 alumni, we sincerely invite you to participate in the 70th anniversary celebration of Haihua No. 2 High School, we are waiting for you on July 21st, if you have any questions, please contact the President's Office at 8545740. ”
"There are still 17 days of effort, then there is still time to prepare well!" This 2% permission task completion degree Fang Jueyu is determined to win, so he must become the person who shines the most at the school celebration.
He picked up the phone and immediately dialed the principal's office......
"Alas, what can I do about this?" In the principal's office of Haihua No. 2 Middle School, a middle-aged man in his fifties was looking at this year's college entrance examination results with a hammer head, and this was Zhu Ming, the current principal of Haihua No. 2 Middle School.
Although it is the end high school of Haihua City, there has always been a middle school on the top of Haihua No. 2 Middle School, and it has been decades, and the status of the second millennium has hardly changed, and now, even the status of the second millennium seems to have been shaken.
The results of this year's college entrance examination of the third middle school are very good, and they are only one percentage point behind in the first rate, which is already a very small gap.
As an old end high school, although the strength of the second middle school in previous years was not as good as one, it definitely had the potential to crush the schools below, and such a situation made Zhu Ming feel deeply uneasy.
Every year, the municipal government's education funds are limited, and the majority of them are naturally taken by No. 1 Middle School, while the funds of all other high schools add up to less than half of No. 1 Middle School.
Teachers, educational resources, hardware facilities, all of which need funds, and schools other than No. 1 Middle School have to rely on their own solutions in addition to that pitiful amount of funds.
But schools are not for-profit organizations, so how can they afford to solve these funding gaps on their own?
After inquiring, Zhu Ming learned that the No. 3 Middle School has produced an amazing alumnus in recent years, he has worked hard for more than ten years, founded a large-scale enterprise, and it was listed in the United States just last year.
At the celebration of No. 3 Middle School last year, this alumnus donated 10 million yuan to help the development of the school, so the momentum of No. 3 Middle School will be so strong this year.
After so many years, No. 2 Middle School has naturally produced some outstanding alumni, and there are not a few successful entrepreneurs, and there are many donors, but who can get such a huge amount? Just filling some financial loopholes in the normal development of the school is already very reluctant.
"Hey, if it goes on like this, the second middle school will soon be surpassed by the third middle school!" As the principal, Zhu Ming felt unprecedented pressure, looking at this report card, he seemed to have a lot of gray hair in an instant.
This year is the 70th anniversary of the school, according to the tradition, every ten years to hold a very solemn celebration activities, one is to let those alumni who graduated to go home to see, and naturally also hope that those successful alumni who cherish their alma mater can generously contribute to the construction of their alma mater.
Since a few weeks ago, the school has begun to contact those alumni one after another, but to Zhu Ming's disappointment, as long as every time they talk about donations, more than half of those entrepreneur alumni begin to shirk things, which makes Zhu Ming's heart half cold.
"Jingle bell!" The phone in the principal's office rang, and Zhu Ming had already received dozens of calls in one morning, but most cities came to inquire about the specific time and activity arrangements for the school celebration, and it is estimated that this is no exception, right?
"Is this the principal's office of Haihua No. 2 Middle School?" a young voice came from the other side, "I want to ask about the school celebration." ”
"Yes, I am the current principal Zhu Ming, may I ask which class of alumni are you?"
"Hahahaha, Zhu Ming has already mixed up with the principal?" Fang Jueyu snickered in his heart, what he was most afraid of when he was in high school was this Vice Principal Zhu, he would be haunted at the windows of various classes almost every night during self-study, Fang Jueyu was caught by him more than once.
"President Zhu, I am a graduate of the class of '16!" Fang Jueyu said.
Zhu Ming's face couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, the students of the 16th class, so now they are only juniors, and they haven't even finished their studies, let alone bring any help to the school.
However, since he was a former student, Zhu Ming naturally refused to show this mentality, and the students also had their alma mater in their hearts, so maybe they would get ahead in the future?
"Principal Zhu, do you remember me? My name is Fang Jueyu!"
"Fang Jueyu?" has been engaged in the education industry for decades, and Zhu Ming has too many students' names in his mind, and he really can't think of fighting for a while.
"You forgot, when I was a sophomore in high school, I was caught secretly eating at night in self-study, and then you grabbed me to find our homeroom teacher, but our homeroom teacher also ate stinky tofu in the office, and you also taught us both a lesson!" Thinking of this, Fang Jueyu still feels a little funny, "In the end, when you left, you didn't forget to go with a piece of stinky tofu!"
"Ahem, cough, oh, I remember, it's you!" As soon as he said this, Zhu Ming's face suddenly turned red, and the face of a naughty but mischievous boy with quite good academic performance appeared in his mind, "I remember that you were admitted to Jiangnan University, right?
It's not a compliment, Fang Jueyu's first class has reached the highest level in the history of the second middle school, and it is even close to the first middle school, if every class of students is like this, Zhu Ming will not be so distressed.
"By the way, are you coming to attend the school celebration?" Zhu Ming suddenly put aside the troubles just now, chatting with such a student is a very interesting and memorable thing.
"Yes, we are on summer vacation, so don't we plan to come back to see our alma mater and teachers," Fang Jueyu asked casually, "By the way, principal, how are the results of our school's college entrance examination this year?"
"Hey, it's hard to say!" Saying this, Zhu Ming sighed heavily, "The gap between us and No. 1 Middle School is getting bigger and bigger, and No. 3 Middle School is about to catch up, I'm afraid it will surpass us next year." ”
"How can this be? I remember that the gap between No. 3 Middle School and our school has always been very big, right?"
"The education funds of No. 3 Middle School have been sufficient in recent years, and the hardware, software and teachers have improved a lot, and our school has ...... Alas!"
Fang Jueyu can be regarded as hearing it, the development of the second middle school has not been very good recently, the biggest problem is that the education funds are not enough, isn't this exactly what he wants?
"Principal, that's the case, I called here and have some things I want to discuss with you, I want to ask, does the school accept donations from students?" Fang Jueyu asked.
"Hahaha, of course, we welcome you alumni to contribute to the development of the school," Zhu Ming did not report any great hopes, Fang Jueyu was just a junior who had not yet graduated, how much money could he have? and he remembered that none of the parents of the students in the 16th class were particularly wealthy.
"Jueyu, the amount of donations is not much, you can do what you can, you can tell me the amount of your donation first, and I will make a record now. ”
"Does the school only accept cash donations?" Fang Jueyu asked.
"Hahaha, of course there is no limit to any type, do you remember the statue at the school gate? That was donated by one of our well-known alumni. ”
"Since that's the case, then I'll donate ten buildings first!"
