It only took Zhang Tao more than ten years to climb from a college student from a poor family to a substantive position at the deputy department level, even if it is those central ministries and commissions at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it can be regarded as a miracle.

In the eyes of his colleagues, Zhang Tao relied on luck, relying on a few rich classmates to pull investment and earn political achievements, so that he could climb up like a rocket. But in the eyes of his leaders, this young man is mature and steady, and he not only has his own ideas about various social issues, but more importantly, this young man is clean.

A person who mixes officialdom, as long as he doesn't mess around with money and women, is a very clean person. If this person still has good ability and can earn political achievements for himself, the leaders will be more assured to use it. As a leader, there is no shortage of people to send, and there is no shortage of people to pat on the back, only a lack of capable subordinates to help him make political achievements.

Of course, Zhang Tao is not a moral gentleman, he only runs away from the leader, and that is because someone helped him send it; He is not greedy for money, that is because his wife is the entrepreneurial veteran of Hanhua Electronics, and the dividends in his hand are enough for his family to live a rich life. For Sun Ziming's small group, those who go through the officialdom can climb up, worry less about other things, and when they become princes, it is not too late to repay everyone.

……

Eleven years ago, Zhang Tao got married as soon as he graduated, and his wife Lu Hui took hundreds of thousands of dollars from Sun Ziming and his group, and bought an old-style garden house in Xujiahui without telling her husband, and then took the house to find Zhang Tao's classmates in the bank, and overestimated the housing price mortgage to buy shares in Hu Weiguo's factory that had not yet opened, which shows how bold and business-minded this shrewd Shanghai woman is. Fortunately, at that time, Sun Ziming and Yang Guozhong had already made a name for themselves, and Zhang Tao knew that his wife's audacity was not frightened, and comforted himself: In case the investment fails, there are two good friends who can pull him and not be forced to death by the bank.

In ten years, not to mention how much the original house was worth, the shares of Hanhua Electronics alone are worth hundreds of millions, and they are still increasing rapidly. It is said that Lu Hui has such a ability, so she should continue to develop in the shopping mall, right? But people don't, after Hanhua Electronics began to get on the right track, Lu Hui withdrew and returned home to be a good wife and mother, so that her husband could climb up in the officialdom with all his might.

It is precisely with such virtuous help that Zhang Tao can not worry about family affairs like others, focus all his energy on work, and do everything beautifully, so that the leaders are full of praise for him, and give priority to him when there is an opportunity to promote.

Therefore, every time Sun Ziming comes to Zhang Tao's house for dinner, he always has to toast this old friend who drank himself first. Even if he was begging Hu Weiguo for something today, he would first respect Sun Ziming.

After the two of them had a drink, Zhang Tao just wanted to fill the two wine glasses, Hu Weiguo picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine first, and said apologetically: "Zhang Tao, things have changed." We have reached a cooperation intention with Singapore's ST Electronics, and if there are no accidents, the new mobile phone production line will be put in Suzhou. There is a complete industrial chain from IC design, chip manufacturing to packaging and testing, which can save a lot of costs for us. ”

'Hehe', Zhang Tao laughed a few times and whispered: "I expected it, the wages of workers in Shanghai are so high now, if you don't move the nest, it will be abnormal." Vice Mayor Zheng had just arrived and didn't know much about the situation, so he wanted to arrest me. It's okay, I'll take a chance to explain, he won't embarrass me. ”

Hu Weiguo looked at Zhang Tao carefully, and saw that he didn't seem to be talking about the scene, so he joked: "Yo, Secretary Zhang, who implements the leader's instructions and doesn't stay overnight, will also play tricks with the leader?" ”

"Leader?"

Zhang Tao laughed, mixing officialdom is mixing circles, the most taboo is to stand on the wrong team, how can he join Vice Mayor Zheng's camp lightly as a local? Besides, his level is almost the same, and he has to find a way to leave Shanghai and work in other places. If you stay here and make more achievements, it will be difficult to go up.

Sun Ziming and they are all upright, "Do you have eyebrows?" ”

"Hehe, the above intends to transfer a group of cadres to serve in the central and western regions, and the level can be raised by half a level, I want to give it a try."

This is an opportunity, even if you do it in Shanghai, you can't show much ability. If you go to poor areas, maybe a big project can increase a region's GDP by tens of percent.

"Ziming, you have to do me a favor in this matter."

"Say"

Zhang Tao lowered his voice and said: "The nephew of Deputy Secretary Jiang of the Municipal Party Committee was admitted to the master's degree of Jingshi University. I've heard that you have exchanges with Yale and Harvard, can you help me communicate with them? ”

This is a trivial matter, the foundation is built at its own expense, and taking care of a person is not a matter of words?

"What's it called? What major? ”

"Wang Ping, a native of Fuzhou, is also a graduate of our Yan University, studying the Internet, and I heard that he is still the person in charge of the official website of Jingshi University."

Thinking of it, Sun Ziming remembered the swarthy, lean young man, and promised repeatedly: "Well, I know him." That kid has a talent for being a journalist, and when the time comes, I will arrange for him to find a part-time job at ESPN to see if he is interested in staying in the United States. ”

After talking about Zhang Tao, Sun Ziming continued to talk about his own business. What Zhang Jinhai said last time was not wrong, since the education fund can give student loans to students of Jingshi University, then the young people in his club must give it even more. Isn't it just that the grades are a little worse, it's a big deal to study a one-year preparatory department in China first, and those young people will have a chance in the future, and they are guaranteed to know more about gratitude than the children in the mainland!

If an organization wants to develop and grow, it must have cohesion and centripetal force, and it is easiest for the members of the organization to have a sense of pride and honor if there is a difference between inside and outside. Harvard, Yale, the world-class universities, will give priority to the descendants of their alumni to admit, in order to increase the cohesion and centripetal force of their own students' alma mater.

After Sun Ziming finished speaking, Zhang Tao looked at him very strangely and said jokingly: "You are now a citizen of the British Empire?" ”

Sun Ziming felt inexplicable, could it be that there was another reason for this?

There is really something strange about this, why don't you say what is called the style of the Celestial Empire?

Foreign students applying for universities in Chinese mainland only need to provide high school scores, valid passports and pass the guò Chinese proficiency test. In other words, as long as the Chinese language proficiency is acceptable and the high school grades are not too bad, foreign students can apply to study in mainland universities.

Shanghai people are the most shrewd and the most adept at exploiting loopholes, Zhang Tao recalled it carefully, but he couldn't remember the specific things, and hurriedly called Lu Hui, who was guarding the children in the room to do their homework.

"Ah Hui, who did you tell me last time? It was the one who immigrated to Canada first, and then returned to China to study at Fudan. ”

Lu Hui, who came out of the child's room, recalled and affirmed: "The daughter of Director Zhong of the Zhabei District Construction Committee, the immigrant helped by Chiway International. This Chiway International is very famous in China, and many of the children of officials have immigrated to Canada, as if immigrants to Canada only need to pay 500,000 yuan. ”

The third brother smiled, and whispered in Xiangxi dialect in Sun Ziming's ear: "Chiway International was built by Shanlin and their Guò Offshore Company, which is specially used to do these things. Don't worry, those two guys are fine, no one can get the handle. Now Zhabei District is engaged in shantytown transformation, that is a big fat meat, can Hu Shanlin let it go? Deputy Mayor Zheng, who came to the door today, happened to be in charge of this part. Wait, that guy from Hu Shanlin will definitely come to you! ”

Sun Ziming frowned, when he established the Guangsha Group, he advised them not to collude with officials and businessmen, but he didn't expect them to finally embark on the road of collusion between officials and businessmen, and they were so skillful.

The greed of capital, as long as there is 100% profit, capital dares to risk hanging its head, not to mention the real estate industry, which is profitable?

However, since people can't grasp the handle, Sun Ziming is too lazy to worry about it, and brings the topic back to studying abroad.

"According to what you say, we overseas Chinese are free to return to China for further study?"

Lu Hui knows this best, a considerable number of children in her circle have poor academic performance, not to mention being admitted to famous foreign schools, and even foreign languages are not satisfactory in the past two or three years, and finally transfer back to China to study.

"Of course, it's no problem to return to China, and it's easy to get into a prestigious university, but the tuition fee is not ordinarily expensive. The cost of students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is the same as that of mainland students, only about 3,000 yuan a year, and foreign students seem to be in the early 40,000s. ”

I understand, the banner is the style of the Celestial Empire, but in fact, it is still the first to make money. Or the Chinese people are smart and flexible!

However, if the children under his command return to China to study and have to pay the same high tuition fees as foreigners, isn't that treating them as outsiders?

"Ziming, this is not easy to do. If you pay a tuition fee of 3,000 yuan a year like students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, how can those schools be motivated? ”

This is also, without economic interests, who wants to do it in vain? If it weren't for the fact that Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan and the mainland were the same country, they would be treated equally out of political considerations, and it is estimated that those officials would also ask them to pay 40,000 or 50,000 yuan a year, although it is not uncommon for people to come to the mainland to go to school.

Hu Weiguo also thought for a while, and hesitated: "Ziming, I will also donate some money to the universities in Indonesia, and it is best to set up a Chinese ordinary university similar to Jingshi University, which specializes in providing better vocational education to ordinary students." After all, there are not many talented students, and even fewer will be able to pursue the path of scientific research in the future. ”

This is also a solution, prestigious universities provide elite education, and what those Chinese young people in Indonesia need most is actually vocational education in universal education. Recruiting a group of teachers from China and running a large vocational college is estimated to meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of children who are members to learn a skill.

As for those students with outstanding talents, they can apply for further study at Jingshi University, which is originally open to overseas students, and the scholarship is the same as that of domestic students.

"Well, that's a solution, I'll talk to those two guys later."
