Chapter 150: The Mayor Who Gets Close to the People
The other party's impassioned posture was as if he had donated a full 500,000 yuan, not just 5,000 yuan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He put down the microphone, and his face was an expression waiting for thunderous applause from the audience, but after a while, what he was waiting for was an obvious commotion and boos, and even a student blurted out in the audience, "I'll go, it's only 5,000 yuan, not as much as the New Year's money I collected for the New Year!"
There was a burst of unbridled laughter from the high stage, and the successful man walked down with an embarrassed face, and when he passed by the principal, Principal Zhang politely gave him an apologetic smile.
With the previous farce, the next spokesperson finally increased the amount of donations significantly, some were 8,000 yuan, some were 9,000 yuan, and the last person, who managed to raise the four-figure figure to the five-figure figure, donated a full 10,000 yuan.
Although President Zhang was extremely grateful for the donations of every alumnus, there was still an indescribable embarrassment in her expression after the smile subsided. Principal Zhang silently calculated in his heart that the more than 40 outstanding alumni invited by the school through the invitation letter did not donate more than 100,000 yuan to the No. 1 Middle School.
That's almost the same amount as the cost of the accommodation, meals, and entertainment provided by No. 1 Middle School, which means that it would be nice to be able to cover the expenses with this meagre donation, and there is no need to expect much help from the expansion of the school.
Principal Zhang sighed slightly, and set his eyes on the biggest heavyweight guest invited to this school anniversary, Mayor Yao Honghai Yao, and now he can only hope that his daughter can get a government grant when she studies in No. 1 Middle School.
After the last alumni finished speaking, Principal Zhang walked back onto the high platform, she picked up the microphone and said excitedly, "Today, in addition to these alumni participating in the grand event with us, No. 1 Middle School also ushered in the care of the government, and finally, let us invite Mayor Yao to speak for us!"
The applause from the audience was indeed much warmer than before, but these applause were more out of the students' surprises, and it was a little incredible that the mayor could be invited to stand on the platform for the school celebration of a high school. And judging from the previous principal's speech, Mayor Yao is not an alumnus of No. 1 Middle School.
In the midst of all the attention, Mayor Yao, who had an elegant temperament, really appeared in everyone's sight, and he generously waved his hand to all the students in the audience and said, "Hello everyone, are you impatient? I guarantee that my speech will not exceed three minutes." ”
Mayor Yao's words won everyone's cheers, and thousands of students of No. 1 Middle School had been standing under the sun for nearly an hour, and they had long since lost interest in listening to the speeches of these so-called successful people. Mayor Yao was the first person to take into account the feelings of the students, and the image of being close to the people was immediately established among the students.
Yao Mengqi glared at the stage angrily, and muttered, "Dad, what are you doing here..."
Mayor Yao looked around at the students in the audience and said with a warm smile on his face, "Although I haven't studied in No. 1 Middle School, a person who is very important to me is now studying here, so I can be regarded as half an alumnus of No. 1 Middle School." Mayor Yao joked, "To become the No. 1 key middle school in the city, of course, it is inseparable from the efforts of Principal Zhang and all the members of the school council, and I fully affirm the teaching quality and performance of No. 1 Middle School." ”
Receiving the mayor's personal approval, Principal Zhang stood up from his seat and bowed humbly in the direction of the mayor. Then, Mayor Yao continued, "From the speeches of the alumni just now, we can see the demeanor of these outstanding talents cultivated by the first middle school. However, as far as I know, there are also outstanding students who are still studying at No. 1 Middle School. For example..."
Mayor Yao paused deliberately, and his eyes were aimed at the column of Yao Mengqi's sophomore (11th) class. Seeing his father's eyes, Yao Mengqi was shocked, who did he want to say, it wouldn't be something I mentioned to him a few times...
Yao Mengqi's heart was pounding, she was afraid to say that name from her father's mouth, after all, this was in front of the public, and in front of the teachers and students of the whole school, which would make her feel that she was indirectly confessing. But on the other hand, there is some expectation in her heart, as if she is telling the world her heart through her father, and she really admires that man very much.
When Yao Mengqi was struggling in her heart, Mayor Yao really said a name that made her heart move, "For example, there is a classmate named Lin Zifeng." ”
When he heard his name from the loudspeaker, Lin Zifeng was originally drowsy from the sun, but now he woke up suddenly. Wouldn't it be a bit exaggerated to say that he was an outstanding existence?
There was an immediate uproar among the students in the audience, and everyone's faces were more and more surprised, although Lin Zifeng was already well-known in the No. 1 Middle School, but it was not even known to a figure like the mayor. And the current situation is that the other party not only knows him, but also praises him, and he is completely the future star of tomorrow.
Lin Zifeng stood at the end of the line, and few people noticed him, but now after the mayor's words, all the eyes around him turned their heads to look at him, making him instantly feel exposed to the spotlight.
"Classmate Lin Zifeng, can you stand up and let me take a look?" Mayor Yao stood on the high platform, searching for the male classmate who made his daughter fall in love.
In fact, Yao Mengqi naturally didn't tell her father that she fell in love with a boy named Lin Zifeng, but because the longer she got along with him, the more Yao Mengqi found that in addition to liking him, she also had a deeper and deeper admiration for him. Therefore, even at home, Yao Mengqi will mention the word Lin Zifeng from time to time, and after repeating similar things a few times, the thoughtful Mayor Yao naturally understands that his daughter should like this boy.
Although the No. 1 Middle School invited Mayor Yao to participate in this school celebration because of Yao Mengqi's relationship, in fact, the biggest motivation for Yao Honghai, who had a lot of opportunities, finally decided to show up was this classmate named Lin Zifeng. He wanted to see how good this boy was to make his arrogant daughter fall in love.
With the mayor already speaking and all the classmates staring at him, Lin Zifeng had to cooperate. He silently walked from the end of the queue to the front row, stood squarely under the high platform and looked at Mayor Yao, and asked with a playful smile on his face, "Lord Mayor, is it still your eye?"
