Chapter 151 Fundraising

They soon realised the huge opportunity that lay within. Since the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee, the leader proposed that science and technology are the primary productive forces, the status of intellectuals, who were previously called the stinking old nine, can be said to have taken a big turn.

Correspondingly, the identity and social status of teachers have been greatly improved. This has given hope to many teachers who are not for fame and fortune and are willing to teach and educate people in poverty.

Although these teachers who are working in obscurity and struggle in grassroots education positions are indifferent to fame and fortune, who doesn't want their work to be recognized by the school and students.

And the best recognition, in addition to bringing out excellent students and allowing students to succeed in their studies, is also an important aspect of being recognized by peers.

Just imagine, if Li Liang's "Middle School Students' Study Newspaper" is really successfully distributed in the surrounding areas, these teachers will definitely be the first to get close to the water. It would be a great honor if I could publish a few teaching experiences and compile a few sets of test questions on it at that time.

With such a big expected glory, it's suffocating just to think about it.

"Principal, I think what Li Liang said is feasible, I suggest that our school organize the backbone teachers, and the teachers of the art department design the layout and the founding words. Everyone here sacrifices their spare time and strives to write an excellent study report in half a month, and I am here to make a statement, I can be responsible for the high school English section!"

The speaker was Ms. Wei Sumei, the head of the second grade of Hekang No. 1 High School, who has been working for more than 20 years and has a high quality of teaching. In addition to the years when the college entrance examination was cancelled, the English scores of the classes she brought out at other times were always among the best in the Gangshan area.

With her beginning, the grade directors who attended the meeting recommended themselves one after another.

Xiao Keming couldn't help but smile bitterly, he called such a person over to ask them to analyze the difficulties and how to do it, but the teachers didn't seem to see the difficulties one by one, and they volunteered to take the initiative to take on the work of editing.

Fortunately, Vice Principal Zhang Xuewen, who had not spoken, spoke: "Teachers, please be quiet! Principal Xiao called us over, not only to ask us to sacrifice our spare time to become editors, but more importantly, where will the funds come from?

Zhang Xuewen said that the key is capital and how to operate.

"Principal Zhang, we are just teachers, we only know how to teach and how to produce learning materials, we are all poor, we have neither money nor how to sell!" Huang Jingxiu, the director of the first grade of high school, said Lai Lai, she is a middle-aged woman who still has charm, and her words are not good but true.

"I have a way to sell it, can we directly recommend it to various schools through the regional education bureau and call on students to subscribe!"

What this teacher said was the same as what Principal Xiao Keming originally meant.

"Just now Li Liang put forward an idea, that is, we give one or two issues of newspapers for free to students to read, and when they read one or two issues and feel that it is useful, they will subscribe!

The initial cost input is first of all the basic printing input, and the amount of printing in the whole region, each issue is at least tens of thousands.

Take Hek County as an example, Hekang No. 1 Middle School alone has a total of more than 1,000 students in five grades, plus more than 1,000 people in Hekang No. 2 Middle School.

In addition, there are Chengguan Middle School, Chengxi Middle School, and junior high schools in more than 10 townships, although these schools are smaller, but the total number of students is several thousand.

Looking at the whole region, there are nearly 100,000 middle and high school students in 13 counties and schools in the region, and of course it is impossible for every student to subscribe to this set of newspapers, but as long as one in ten students is willing to subscribe, there are nearly 10,000 copies.

And if the first one or two issues are given away, it will really cost nearly 100,000 copies, even if one costs two or three cents, it will cost two or three thousand yuan. This investment is so big that Xiao Keming doesn't dare to gamble, and if he loses the bet, the school's reputation will be stinky.

When it comes to such a large amount of funding, the teachers are silent, and no one dares to say that the project will be successful. Everyone's salary income is not high, and they have to support their families. If it's just about investing time and energy, it's okay to say, but if you want to advance money into it, everyone hesitates.

At this time, Li Liang, who was still standing on the rostrum, spoke: "I can find investors for this money, and I can ask my brother-in-law to invest 10,000 yuan to come in." ”

"Li Liang, don't talk nonsense!" Li Liang's homeroom teacher, Teacher Wang Na, spoke, although she was optimistic about this project, but the initial investment was too large, and she didn't want her outstanding student to put herself in, even if Li Liang said it was his uncle's money.

"Mr. Wang, I'm telling the truth. It's just that I also have three requirements!" After speaking, Li Liang looked at the principal Xiao Keming and the vice principal Zhang Xuewen.

"Li Liang, if you have any requirements, just say it!" Xiao Keming said.

Li Liang paused and continued: "The first requirement is that I can persuade my brother-in-law to invest 10,000 yuan in advance, but it needs to account for 51% of the shares in the form of shares. ”

"There is no problem with this, I can agree on behalf of the school!" Xiao Keming said after looking at the teachers present.

"The second requirement is that I hope that the teachers here and the teachers who did not attend this meeting today will each invest 50 yuan, and distribute the remaining 49% of the shares according to the amount of everyone's contribution. ”

As soon as Li Liang finished finishing the second point, the audience exploded. Some teachers agreed immediately, while others hesitated. 50 yuan is a small amount of income for them, and it will be really distressing if they lose it.

In the end, Xiao Keming made a final decision, and he said: "Li Liang is not afraid that his brother-in-law will lose 10,000 yuan, even if we lose a little, what is it." Well, I'll give you 100 bucks!"

The principal spoke, and even if the other teachers had opinions, it was difficult to express them again, so everyone tacitly agreed to Li Liang's second request.

"My third request is that if all the money invested is lost, I hope that the school will authorize this school-run enterprise established for this purpose to my uncle for free forever. In addition, in return, my brother-in-law can give priority to compensating everyone's investment, and lose as much as you lose!"

Li Liang's third request is not a requirement at all, but it is like compensation for the teachers, after all, so that the teachers don't have to worry about losses!
