Chapter 309: University!
More than 300 reporters came to witness the establishment of Huaxia National University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and almost all reporters from some well-known domestic media were present.
In this age of universities, will the establishment of a university attract so much attention? The answer is yes, but only if the school is preceded by the word "country".
Huaxia National University of Traditional Chinese Medicine - As the name suggests, this is not one of those colleges and universities that you can go to for money.
At ten o'clock, Liang Siyan walked onto the stage, briefly welcomed the arrival of the reporter, and did not make any long speeches, and began to introduce some important guests who came to participate in the ceremony.
With each guest, the flashing lights will crackle and flicker, accompanied by bursts of exclamations.
This young man has a lot of energy, and the people he invited are all people who usually have to queue up to make an appointment for half a year even if they want to.
If Li Jianhua and Duan Zixuan surprised them, then when Yang Zhenxing, who was dressed in a suit, appeared at the scene, the reporters were crazy, and if it wasn't for the security guards to stop them, they would have rushed to the front row.
"Journalists, please be quiet." Liang Siyan looked at the reporters in the audience and said with a smile. "I'll give you a chance to ask questions later, so can you be quiet now? Speaking of which, we are all peers, so let's give our peers a face. β
Liang Siyan's words caused laughter among the reporters, who are no strangers to Liang Siyan, a rising star in the Hong Kong hosting industry in the past two years, who is now red and purple. Everyone is engaged in the media, and there is no reason not to know each other.
Seeing that the reporters were quiet, Liang Siyan said with a smile. "Next, I announce that the ribbon-cutting ceremony is now open -- I invite Mr. Yan Murong of Huaxia National University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Mr. Yang Zhenxing, Chief Executive, Mr. Peng Jianhui, Minister of Education, Dong Xingbang, Dong Lao, and Mr. Li Jianhua to take the stage to cut the ribbon."
When Liang Siyan's words fell, the scene erupted in a burst of warm applause, followed by a flash of flashlights.
Although Liang Siyan only said the names, they were too familiar with these names, Yang Zhenxing and Peng Jianhui didn't say it first, Dong Xingbang and Li Jianhua couldn't have known who they were.
After the five of them walked up to the stage, a row of hostesses wearing red cheongsams and carrying trays of red silk walked up. Of course, these hostesses were also arranged by Li Jianhua, and they were all selected from the contestants of this year's Miss Hong Kong.
At ten o'clock, in the cheerful music of the band, five golden ones fell together, and the flashing lights under the stage flashed again with a dazzling light, recording a scene that will surely enter the annals of history.
After the ribbon-cutting, Liang Siyan introduced the school's faculty lineup and teaching direction, and then invited Yan Murong to come up and prepare to accept questions from reporters.
"To be honest, I don't like dealing with journalists." Yan Murong looked at the reporters in the audience and said with a smile. "Because some reporters always like to beat me in the back."
Yan Murong's words caused laughter in the audience, they knew that Yan Murong was talking about those tabloids who always like to blow people's privacy, and all the people here today are well-known media, even if it is negative news, they will make responsible comments, and they disdain to beat the behavior of the stick.
"First of all, thank you very much for coming." The laughter stopped, and Yan Murong continued. "In addition, I have to thank those workers who have worked hard for the school - it is they who have worked overtime in just half a year to allow me to stand here today, and I also want to thank my friends who have always supported me - of course, I must thank Mr. Li Jianhua, you just saw that group of beautiful women wearing cheongsam, right? These are all contestants of this year's Miss Hong Kong, and I can't be invited to come, it all depends on Mr. Li Jianhua. β
"Wow-"
The reporters in the audience laughed again, but Li Jianhua smiled wryly and whispered to Duan Zixuan. "See, it's called thankless, this guy just sold me."
"Haha, you just know." Duan Zixuan laughed. "I've been working for him for so long, I'm used to it."
"Okay, no more nonsense." Yan Murong raised his hand and pressed it down, and when the reporters were quiet, he said. "Each of you has a microphone under your seat, and the microphone has a number on it, so if you have any questions, please hold the microphone up."
Soon, all the reporters took out numbered microphones from under them, and their hands were also raised, all wanting to seize the opportunity to ask the first question.
"Today is the first of September, so let's ask the first question on the ninety-first." Yan Murong said with a smile.
"Hello Principal Yan." A male reporter in his thirties stood up and said. "I am a reporter from Yangcheng Evening News, first of all, congratulations on the establishment of Huaxia National University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. My question is, can you tell us a little bit about your original motivation for establishing this university? β
"Principal Yan? Hehe, this title sounds quite big. Yan Murong smiled and motioned for the reporter to sit down, and said with a smile. As for the original intention of establishing this university, it is very simple, because I hope that Chinese medicine can rise in China and even in the world. β
"Is this your ideal?" The journalist asked.
"Yes." Yan Murong nodded and added. "It's also an old man's ideal, and that old man is my master."
Next, Yan Murong clicked on another female reporter.
"Hello President Yan, I am a reporter from the Yenching Evening News, my question is, what do you think about the future of Huaxia National University of Traditional Chinese Medicine? ββIs your school a competitive position compared to some long-established universities? β
"That's an interesting question." Yan Murong smiled and did not answer her question, but asked rhetorically. "These journalists, I want to ask you, what is your definition of a university?"
"What is the definition of a university?" The female reporter thought for a moment and said. "A university is a school that provides higher education, a higher education institution that provides the conditions for teaching and research and the degree of authorization."
"Your answer is too official, isn't it?" Yan Murong couldn't help but laugh.
"I think Principal Yan must have a different opinion." The female reporter said with a smile.
"That's right." Yan Murong smiled and said. "College, in fact, according to my thoughts, there is no difference from junior high school and high school, it is just a learning stage where people have to do their best at different ages."
As he spoke, Yan Murong paused before speaking. "In my eyes, the school that can really be called a university and is qualified to be called a university is not Yenching University in China."
