Chapter 72: College Entrance Examination

"What do you think of night school?" Suddenly, Principal Zhou asked Song Yuanchao such a sentence.

Principal Zhou's question made Song Yuanchao a little surprised, he didn't understand that Principal Zhou's so-called night school was not the night school he understood, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"What? You wouldn't know about night school, would you? Principal Zhou quipped.

"Of course you know, headmaster, are you planning to run a night school?" Song Yuanchao asked tentatively.

"Hehe, can't you?" Principal Zhou laughed out loud when he saw Song Yuanchao a little surprised: "This night school is not a new thing, our school has run a workers' night school in the early days of its establishment, and this night school has existed for a long time, but it was canceled for some reasons." ”

Speaking of this, Principal Zhou's expression was full of memories, as if he thought of the past: "Aid to the DPRK, you were still young at that time, and your father served as a night school teacher for a long time and taught many students. ”

Song Yuanchao's memory suddenly remembered, it seemed that there was indeed such a thing when he was a child, his father Song Guangzeng was busy for a long time, and he came home late at night, even if he was a day off, he couldn't see anyone at home.

At that time, the ignorant Song Yuanchao also asked his mother, why was his father not at home, and his mother smiled and told him that his father was busy with work, and he had to teach students day and night, at that time, Song Yuanchao also secretly complained about the school, why did he always let his father go to class, and he didn't even have time to promise himself to go to the zoo to see the elephants.

"Headmaster, are you going to use the resources of the second middle school to run a night school?"

"Yes, there is this idea, in fact, not only the No. 2 Middle School, but also other schools work together." Principal Zhou glanced at Song Yuanchao and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this is also the inspiration you gave me this time, a few days ago I went to the Education Bureau for a meeting, and met a lot of old friends, they all joked that our No. 2 Middle School can be regarded as a fortune this time, and took the opportunity of the college entrance examination to get a batch of college entrance examination review materials. ”

Saying that, Principal Zhou laughed heartily, the current school is different from the schools of later generations, all schools, including universities, are on the basis of financial meals, and they have a hard time on weekdays, not to mention the salaries of school teachers, and even the school has to break into two cents to spend some teaching equipment.

In later generations, not to mention the schools in backward and remote areas, let's talk about all kinds of schools in first-tier cities, whether it is primary school, junior high school, high school or even university, all the schools are not wealthy?

Even if it is not a key school, in addition to the fixed financial allocation, the school has more channels to generate its own income, such as night schools, cram schools, etc., which are the majority of the school's source of income, and even its income exceeds the amount of normal financial allocation.

This time, the No. 2 Middle School not only made the No. 2 Middle School famous in Shanghai and Haihai by printing the college entrance examination review materials, but also made the No. 2 Middle School benefit a lot.

Among them, the income from this alone is more than 10,000 yuan, and the school and the factory side divide half each, and there are also 5,000 yuan.

In addition, the No. 2 Middle School also took a full 1,000 college entrance examination review materials for nothing, and all of these materials were distributed to the graduating students of the No. 2 Middle School for free, which made the students and parents of the No. 2 Middle School happy to close their mouths.

As for the teachers who helped sort out the materials, Song Yuanchao did not treat them badly, and gave each of them a generous bonus, which was equal to their monthly salary, which made these teachers very happy.

The success of No. 2 Middle School in this matter has made other schools see the same possibility, and Principal Zhou has heard that some schools, especially the principals of key middle schools like No. 2 Middle School, have begun to think about the way of school No. 2 Middle School to get next year's college entrance examination review materials.

Like No. 2 Middle School, these schools also have a lot of question banks and excellent teachers, even if they don't have the same printing equipment as the No. 2 Middle School's factory, they can find a printing factory to cooperate.

This year's first soup was given to the second middle school to drink, and next year it can't be enjoyed exclusively by the second middle school, right? Your second middle school is now eating meat and eating with a mouth full of oil, and everyone can't look at it dryly, right?

When Principal Zhou told Song Yuanchao about this, Song Yuanchao was not too surprised, this is actually the competition in the market, although this market is different from the ordinary market, but its essence has not changed in the slightest.

These things made by the Song Yuan Dynasty were not uncommon in later generations, especially in the era of the information explosion in later generations, and these materials and exercises were easy to obtain through various channels. Even now, although some schools are inferior to No. 2 Middle School due to lack of foundation and other reasons, looking at the whole of Shanghai, there are not no schools that are comparable to No. 2 Middle School, so No. 2 Middle School can do it, and they can do the same.

"I was worried about what we would do if these schools also started to review materials for the college entrance examination tomorrow, but today Lao Ma came to me and said what they discussed, but my eyes lit up. You think about it well, it can't be limited to the college entrance examination, the high school entrance examination and even the improvement of academic performance can be promoted in this way, which is a good thing for the improvement of education level. ”

Principal Zhou said, and then he added: "But some schools can't do this, because they haven't been established for a long time and don't have such conditions. A few old friends discussed cooperation with me privately, and I considered that it would not be fair for the factory to cooperate with the tutoring materials, so I wondered if it was possible to set up a joint night school and do some make-up teaching work directly for students, so that these unqualified schools and teachers could teach in the name of the school or individual, and at the same time obtain some benefits while improving the students' performance, so as to achieve the same purpose. ”

It turned out that Principal Zhou thought about it this way, which made Song Yuanchao look at Principal Zhou with admiration.

For a long time, Song Yuanchao only felt that Principal Zhou was an excellent educator and also a kind elder, but Principal Zhou today let Song Yuanchao see his vision beyond ordinary people in this regard, this kind of thinking is not uncommon in later generations, even if it is more than ten years later, but it is extremely forward-looking now.

Running a night school is a training institution, which is a big market. If it is possible, Song Yuanchao really wants to do this market, at least before 2021, the scale of this market has reached an unimaginable level.

However, the current Song Yuanchao does not have the slightest plan, after all, the education market was opened to private capital in the late eighties, and before this period of time, the education market was a closed state after all, and those who could enter this industry were their own institutions within the education system or the school itself.

Song Yuanchao knew that it was impossible for him to enter this industry, so he didn't think about it from the beginning. But today, Principal Zhou's idea made Song Yuanchao feel that he could push it, although he couldn't do it himself, but it didn't prevent him from helping the second middle school to do it. If the second middle school does well, this is a very good thing for the second middle school, and it is also beneficial to the society.

"Hehe, the words are a bit far, this matter has not been decided, I will go to the bureau for a meeting later, and I will officially report to the director at that time, if the bureau has no opinion, this night school can probably be done." Principal Zhou said this, but Song Yuanchao was a little puzzled in his heart, although Principal Zhou's idea was good, but how much did it have to do with himself?

Who would have thought, Principal Zhou's next sentence made Song Yuanchao stunned: "The things in the factory will be done according to the ideas you discussed, and the school can support it here." Another thing, I have signed up for you, you can study hard these days, take time to come to me to read books and do questions, and strive to be admitted to university as soon as possible. ”

"Going to college?" Song Yuanchao was dumbfounded, why did this suddenly involve his own university entrance examination?

When Principal Zhou handed a registration receipt to Song Yuanchao, Song Yuanchao clearly saw his name written on it, and the registration time was last month, and the whole person was a little bad.

"Headmaster, this ...... You......? ”

"Knowledge is power, knowledge is the future!" You are still young, the chairman said, young people are the sun at eight or nine o'clock, you have done a good job in the factory in the past few months, and you are very capable, but you should have a broader stage and a more ambitious future. Don't be complacent because of a little achievement, patronize the immediate benefits, going to college is my expectation for you, and I think your parents want it too. For me, for your parents, and for yourself, you should go to university! ”

Patting Song Yuanchao's shoulder heavily, Principal Zhou said earnestly: "Child, go to college, with your level, you will definitely be able to pass the exam this time, of course, if you really don't want to, I won't be reluctant, but the factory is ......." ”

Speaking of which, Principal Zhou did not continue to speak.

This seemingly kind and peaceful old man has an unexpected stubbornness, and he has always been obsessed with this matter, and even presumptuously registered himself.

President Zhou's words also expressed his attitude, that is, if Song Yuanchao did not go to this university, he would probably veto the suggestion from the factory, and Song Yuanchao would be put on the bar at once.

Looking at the receipt in front of him, and then thinking of what he said yesterday when he asked Gu Jie to sign up, Song Yuanchao couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was really unhappy with retribution, he had just arranged for Gu Jie to take the college entrance examination, but now he was arranged by Principal Zhou, what is this called!
