Chapter 208: It's Not What It Used To Be

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, that is, on March 6, 2016, the teachers of Taoyuan School officially went to work.

In the morning, the teachers were summoned by Liu Meng in the conference room of the office building to arrange work.

"On the 18th day of the first lunar month, that is, on March 16th, the students will come to school, so what we have to arrange today is the work of all of you in the next 10 days. It mainly includes three aspects: the first is recruitment, the second is recruitment, and the third is the preparation of teaching work in the new semester. ”

"I am responsible for recruiting and recruiting students, and the preparation for the new semester is led by Director Wu. Next, I will arrange the distribution of personnel first, and in the following meetings, everyone should pay special attention to the aspect of their work. ”

Although it was just over the New Year, because everyone was young and had the aura of health protection of the school, everyone did not feel tired and energetic. Liu Meng didn't talk nonsense when he started the meeting, and he pointed to the essence of the work every sentence, making the meeting more efficient.

After assigning good personnel, Liu Meng was the first to talk about enrollment work.

First of all, after the Chinese New Year, many parents of students came to the school and wanted to transfer their children to Taoyuan School, and Liu Meng officially talked about the enrollment plan.

"Last semester, because the school was facing difficulties such as a credibility crisis, I took the risk of using the 'compensation' method to recruit students, but fortunately, the school did not suffer any losses because of this. However, this semester we can't use this method again - because Lady Luck is not our school after all, and our students can't really stay sick all the time. ”

As soon as he came up, Liu Meng vetoed last semester's strange enrollment method.

In private, the teachers also had a lot of discussions about the fact that none of the children were sick last semester, but they did not discuss any results, and in the end they could only conclude like this - Liu Meng, their boss, is really lucky.

Nowadays, Taoyuan School is not what it used to be in terms of credibility, and it is appropriate to no longer use "compensation" for enrollment. So the teachers were not surprised by Liu Meng's decision.

"Not only will we abolish the compensation system, but we will also collect tuition fees and raise the cost of room and board for boarders for boarders. Of course, because the school is still developing, neither of these fees will be high, at least lower than other private schools. The specific number is on the admissions document just sent to everyone, you can take a look at it first, and if you have any questions, you can also put it forward. ”

In these days when the door is closed, Liu Meng naturally does not play with a few children all the time, but finds a lot of time to write the admissions manual for the new semester. Sent to teachers before the meeting. It is the text of the admissions handbook. Take it to the advertising agency, add the appropriate photo, and you can make an official admissions brochure.

Thinking of the hard work these days, Liu Meng also decided that he must recruit a beautiful female clerk to help him deal with some daily literary work this semester.

The teachers looked through the text and found that, as Liu Meng said, the fees charged by Taoyuan School were still not high - 500 yuan including books, and 200 yuan for students to eat lunch at school. The cost of board and lodging for boarders is 800 yuan. And without the "compensation", it is no longer mandatory for all students to live on campus, which is also a proper meaning.

Like Longmen Primary School, non-boarding students are 1,000 yuan a semester. Not to mention that it is 300 times higher than Taoyuan School, and the quality of their food is not even half of that of Taoyuan School. As for the boarders, Longmen Primary School charges 800 for room and board, but the problem is. Can the accommodation conditions of Longmen Primary School be compared with Taoyuan?

Finally, and the most important one, judging from the results of the final research and unified examination of last semester, Longmen Primary School is ten streets behind Taoyuan Primary School!

Such a fee standard. One can imagine what kind of choices parents in Xilin Town will make.

However, the teachers paid attention to more than that, compared with the conditions of the school, they knew: Liu Meng is ready to develop at a loss again this year.

In terms of junior high school, Taoyuan School charges a total of 1,500 yuan per semester, which is half of the 3,000 yuan per semester of Yongji Middle School and much lower than the 5,000 yuan of Fengcheng Middle School.

Obviously, this semester, the junior high school will continue to invest in development.

As for the high school, the conditions are not mature, and Liu Meng is still not ready to open it.

Maybe by enrolling thousands of students at once, Liu Meng can get a lot of points from the system exam, and the students of the school will not be too bad at studying under the effect of the halo. But in terms of management, taking too big a step will inevitably lead to chaos. In this way, the Taoyuan School may have to hand over all the firsts obtained from Liu Meng after accepting it.

The most important thing is that Liu Meng doesn't want to be an irresponsible principal for the sake of points.

Seeing that the teachers had no doubts, Liu Meng continued: "Although in terms of publicity, although our Taoyuan School now has a relatively large reputation in Fengcheng, ordinary people still don't know about us, so we still need publicity. ”

"In the afternoon, I will go to Fengcheng TV station to advertise admissions and recruitment, and at the same time, the enrollment brochure and some promotional materials will also be made in the advertising company. Then the teacher in charge of enrollment will set up an enrollment point in Xilin Town tomorrow, and recruit students while publicizing. Of course, our school also has to set up an enrollment point. ”

"In terms of enrollment, we have to make it clear to the parents of the students that it is only a pre-recruitment, 1,000 students are recruited in the primary school, and 400 students are actually recruited after the entrance exam; 300 students will be recruited in advance for the junior high school, and 100 people will be recruited after the entrance examination. Speaking of this, Liu Meng paused before continuing: "Because it is the second semester, it is much more difficult to recruit students than the previous semester, so the enrollment number I mentioned is just a reference." After March 10th, even if we do not have enough pre-enrollment numbers, we will stop enrollment and prepare for the entrance exams. ”

This is a very real problem, and most students or parents will not transfer in the next semester. Don't look at the people who came to find Liu Meng's relationship, it seems that there are a lot of people, but in fact, there are only a few dozen people, compared to the hundreds of students in Taoyuan, it is nothing at all.

In addition, with only 10 days to go before the start of the new semester, many students are ready to go to school and will not change easily. Taoyuan School must also determine the number of students in the next semester as early as possible to prepare for relevant teaching work.

Therefore, Liu Meng's large-scale expansion plan is actually divided into two steps. This semester is just a small step, and the next semester will take a real big step, which is a warm-up for the next semester's big expansion. This is the best plan that Liu Meng can make after combining the actual situation.

After that, Liu Meng talked about teaching and preparations for the new semester, and then let everyone dismiss.

That's all the work that the school teachers have to do before the start of school, and as for some things after the start of school, we can only wait until after the school starts. By that time, there must have been more than one or twenty people sitting in the conference room.

After the meeting ended, an acquaintance came to visit Liu Meng at Taoyuan School.

"Oh, why did Principal Dong come to our school at this time? Isn't it a New Year's greeting? "No wonder Liu Meng thinks so, because Dong Feng came here with a gift.

Dong Feng said: "I did come to greet President Liu for the New Year, and by the way, I was asking Principal Liu for a job." ”

Liu Meng was stunned for a moment, and then understood: Dong Feng was about to jump to Taoyuan School at his previous invitation.

"Haha" Liu Meng laughed happily and said, "Welcome, welcome!" Taoyuan is lacking an experienced teacher like Principal Dong. ”

Dong Feng said: "Since Principal Liu is going to take me in, then don't call me Principal Dong anymore." ”

Liu Meng said: "Look at what Principal Dong said, didn't I say it before, as long as you come to our school, the position of vice principal in charge of the primary school is yours." Therefore, when you come to our Taoyuan, you are still the principal. ”

After being the principal for a year, Liu Meng has practiced some speaking skills, and Dong Feng is still quite comfortable in his heart, and he has less anxiety about jumping ship and joining Taoyuan.

Soon, Dong Feng entered the role and said seriously: "Principal, do I need an interview?" ”

"Of course not." Liu Meng said, "In addition, if Principal Dong doesn't mind, it's best to come to work today." Now, our Taoyuan is busy. ”

"Okay, no problem."

Liu Meng first arranged Dong Feng to Wu Yan and asked him to follow Wu Yan to learn about the situation in Taoyuan School. As for Wu Yan, Liu Meng is very optimistic about Wu Yan's potential, and in the future, he will train him and take charge of the affairs of the middle school

In the afternoon, Liu Meng asked Li Mingyao to be in charge of the advertising company, and he went to Benfeng City TV Station.

Today, although Liu Meng's fame in the system's personal information is only a few thousand, in Fengcheng, Liu Meng is already a real celebrity. In the final research and unified examination, Taoyuan Primary School crushed other primary schools with high scores, and Liu Meng, the principal, was also stained.

Nowadays, not to mention county-level TV stations, many city-level TV stations are struggling. In recent years, when other county-level TV stations have collapsed, Fengcheng TV has been able to survive and be quite active, which makes sense.

Like this time, after Liu Meng came to the TV station to explain his intention to the reception staff, he was quickly led into the advertising department of the TV station.

Although Fengcheng TV is only a small station with a coverage area of less than 100 kilometers, his advertising price is cheap, so there are usually many local businesses who come to advertise, and all kinds of advertising prices have certain specifications.

What Liu Meng wanted to play was a text advertisement in the prime time of Fengcheng TV, which lasted 20 seconds and lasted for three days. Under the effect of purchasing skills, Liu Meng only paid 50,000 yuan for advertising in the end.

This advertisement actually has little effect on the enrollment of this semester, and the main purpose of Liu Meng's advertisement is not to enroll students, but to let more people know - last semester's final research and unified examination, Taoyuan Primary School won the first place in the county.

As for recruitment, Liu Meng has already posted recruitment information on recruitment websites related to Fengcheng and even Yiyang. Those who are willing, as long as they go online to find out, will know that Taoyuan School is now a school with a great future and money.

Therefore, Liu Meng no longer has to drive the school bus to the county as hard as he did last semester, he just needs to sit in the office and wait for others to come to the interview.
