307 Running schools and actions
Ji Zhengxiong sat next to a stone table in the garden, and when he saw the big boss come out, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Mr. He." ”
"Ji Sheng, sit down and talk." He Dingxian waved his hand, sat down opposite first, and handed over a cigarette when the servant served the tea: "I've been waiting outside for a long time, don't be embarrassed, and talk to my father-in-law a little more." ”
"No, Mr. He's business is more important." Ji Zhengxiong was wearing a suit, glasses, combing his back, took the cigarette politely, and arched his hand: "Congratulations to He Xide, and I wish He Shaoping a safe and secure life." ”
"Haha, thank you, thank you." He Dingxian smiled heartily and said loudly: "Mr. Ji has been taking care of the charity fund, I have to worry a lot, remember to come over and drink two glasses of wine when I have time in the 100th day." ”
"Definitely!"
Ji Zhengxiong nodded heavily, and when the big boss picked up the teacup, he opened a document and read: "He Sheng, the preparatory working group of the financial school has been established, and I am personally responsible for it, and the first investment fund of the Oriental Bank has also been received, and the school is currently located at No. 129, Beilu Street, West Ring, covering an area of 53 acres. ”
"According to the Hong Kong Education Department's school system, a deposit of HK$300,000 is required to be paid to the Education Department in advance, and the Education Department will refund the deposit five years after obtaining the license. Hong Kong Island is currently very supportive of the establishment of schools, with priority in land acquisition, but it is expected that it will take a year to build the school buildings and recruit teachers before the school can be opened. ”
Running a school on Hong Kong Island is not a high-end industry, a few plastic canopies, and two teachers who graduated from secondary school can run a housing village primary school.
Until the 90s, before the closure of rooftop primary schools on Hong Kong Island, most of the housing estates on Hong Kong Island still completed their schools in very simple places.
"Fifty-three acres of land has more than 30,000 square meters, the site is large enough, the location of Belcher's Street is good, that is, it is close to Central, and the land price is also cheap. He Dingxian thought for a moment and drank the tea ceremony.
Ji Zhengxiong nodded: "Yes, the location of the school of finance and economics is a fifteen-minute walk to HKU." ”
"There is a mountain and a sea, the scenery is also very good, there is no problem to buy land, but there is only one requirement!" He Dingxian raised a finger and said loudly: "At the beginning of spring next year, the school will open." ”
"Mr. He, are you in a hurry?" Ji Zhengxiong frowned, and took out the tone of an old pedant: "Running a school still needs to be fine, and the financial school will run well in the future, and it may not be impossible to become a banner of the Chinese education industry." ”
"After all, the future of the finance profession is promising, and Hong Kong Island is also vigorously developing the financial industry."
This remark is enough to prove that he has a full study of finance, because the current financial industry on Hong Kong Island has just started, and it is far from reaching the point of prosperity, and there is no financial street or bank street.
He Dingxian said very sincerely: "Mr. Ji, I run a school to recruit workers, not to compete with Hong Kong University and Polytechnic University for fame, at present, the two universities are enough for the demand for higher education on Hong Kong Island, and no one will study the third university." ”
"The financial school is just a vocational middle school in terms of positioning, and it is more important than anything else for young people who need to work, support their families, and make money.
"And Oriental Bank is in a period of expansion, there is an urgent shortage of employees, take your time, the bank is full of employees, what are students doing when they study? What is the point of building a school? I can't help the bank at all, and the bank will give you money for nothing? ”
Ji Zhengxiong stroked his goatee, stunned for a while, and came back to his senses after a while: "He Sheng, you are right, but it always takes time to build a school building, so students can not have no classrooms and dormitories, right?" ”
He Dingxian smiled: "What is this? I'll make a phone call to Huo Sheng now, and tomorrow the construction team will enter the site, level the land first, and then build a mud house, which can be easily handled. What kind of buildings and playgrounds do you want to study, what you want is a future! ”
"The first batch of students is recruited first, and then while running the school, a playground, a library and a school building are built, and the teacher first selects a few masters from the bank, and then digs up a few ghosts abroad, and combines Chinese and Western schools to teach together."
Ji Zhengxiong opened his mouth and sighed: "He Sheng is really resolute in doing things. ”
"Hahaha, Ji Sheng, you want to say that I am simple and rude, right?" He Dingxian laughed loudly: "But Ji Shengling doesn't understand the people at the bottom, I understand, according to my method, students can eat a year in advance and support their families." ”
"I think they would rather live in a mud house without painting and tiling, and would rather sleep in a bunk than eat more food for a year."
"Moreover, the school duration is only one year, and the learning is all basic, and when you enter the bank work, you can return to study during the promotion period. Vocational schools do not need elite education, the level is enough, no matter how elite there is no position, it is useless to learn. ”
Ji Zhengxiong nodded: "I understand, big boss." ”
In fact, as a charity fund manager, it is an extra thing for him to prepare for the school, but after the listing of "He Dingxian Middle School" in the past year, he has made a lot of money in the fund project, and it is natural to use his connections to help the big boss do some business things.
However, he didn't like to think of education as a factory, and everything was linked to business. But He Dingxian is concerned about the employment account, but the school is inclusive in nature, the first few issues not only package work, but also only charge a very low book fee, ordered to every book to be a good account, after graduation, more fees will be refunded to students, less fees paid by the bank.
This made Ji Zhengxiong have nothing to say, so he could only do things obediently.
He Dingxian is like this, he smells of copper all over his body, but he has yellow blood in his bones, and he inadvertently moved some compulsory education measures, talking about utilitarianism, and taking care of the people below when he does things.
"By the way, the tuition fee in the charter is paid by the students, but what if some students want to study but can't afford to eat?" He Dingxian asked with a smile, Ji Zhengxiong was very surprised: "No, there are all the books and books, and the family can't afford to eat?" ”
It's not that he doesn't understand the hardships of low-level families, but he just thinks that studying itself is a threshold thing, and if you want to find a good job, you should always pay something. He Dingxian knows that some families may be able to afford books, but it is difficult for them to feed and drink for their children.
So he changed his question: "Yes, after paying the book fee, what do you take at home for food and drink?" ”
"In this way, I came up with a policy to make the soup and rice in the school cafeteria free of charge for students, and give the Zaiwu villagers a chance to get ahead with bibimbap, so that they can survive their studies, and if they don't survive, they will go home by themselves. In addition, three student loan places are given every year, and you can sign a contract with Oriental Bank, and the semester fees are all borne by the bank, but after working, you can directly deduct and repay them in installments from your salary every month, how about this policy? ”
Ji Zhengxiong bowed slightly: "Good idea!" ”
At this point, he already admires the big boss a little.
The big boss said: "In addition, whether it is free Tommy or an application for a student loan, there is no need to publicize it, just talk to the students privately and give some hints." After all, we are schools, not slave owners, who come and go. ”
"I understand this, since the boss wants to start school as soon as possible, the name of the school must be decided as soon as possible, as well as the school's management, curriculum, and school motto all need to be decided by the big boss." Ji Zhengxiong said. He Dingxian chuckled, and he already had a draft: "The management of the school, I already have someone I like in the Tung Wah No. 3 Hospital, and when the time comes, Huang Sheng of Tung Wah No. 4 Middle School will be the principal, and Qiu De will be the honorary principal, and the curriculum will be determined by them." ”
He is the school manager, holding the school, what position do you want?
"As for the name of the school, let's name it Hong Kong Island Finance!" He Dingxian said with a good bearing: "This school does not have any titles, I hope to produce more talents for the financial industry on Hong Kong Island, and the school motto is five words: benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith." ”
"Enough!"
Ji Zhengxiong nodded, closed the pen, recorded the requirements of the big boss in the notebook, and got up with the document: "Big boss, I won't bother for now." ”
"Ji Zheng, drink another cup of tea." He Dingxian was full of smiles and his tone was very cheerful. Ji Zhengxiong didn't lose his eyesight, and bowed lightly: "It just so happens that there are some things in the foundation, and the articles of association of Hong Kong Finance also need to be amended." ”
"Alright, I'll send you out." He Dingxian still has great respect for talents, got up and sent Ji Zhengxiong out of the hospital all the way, and watched him get in the car before returning to the house. When Chu Weinan saw him coming back, he took the initiative to ask, "Ah Xian, I heard that you want to set up a school for the bank?" ”
"Yes, Oriental Bank is in a period of rapid expansion, and labor is really tight." He Dingxian nodded: "If you miss the period of great expansion because of lack of manpower, it will be a big loss for the group." ”
"Well done." Chu Weinan patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "It is a big stride for a businessman to return to education, this is the beginning of business to feed the society, the more money in your hands, the heavier the responsibility." ”
He Dingxian smiled: "I understand." ”
Chu Weinan said: "I plan to recommend you to run for the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce at the end of the year, what do you think?" ”
He Dingxian's expression was stunned, and he said loudly: "Will it be too early." ”
"No, it won't." Chu Weinan looked at him and said earnestly: "You are now the first superintendent of the Chinese, you have money and power, you are familiar with the position of the Chamber of Commerce, and you should do more for the Chamber of Commerce in the future." These things may not have a monetary reward, but they will definitely be remembered! ”
"In a few years, I will hand over the position of president of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce to you." He Dingxian opened his mouth and was about to resign, but Chu Weinan raised his hand and said, "No need to refuse!" The president of the Chamber of Commerce is not the emperor's dragon chair, he must pass it to his family, and he must sit until he dies. I passed it on to you because the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce is in your hands, and it may not be only the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce in the future, but the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce will continue to be in my hands, and it will always be the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce. Because I'm so capable. ”
He Dingxian closed his mouth and nodded, expressing approval.
Night.
Kowloon, Yau Ma Tei Police Pier.
The General Superintendent of the Customs Department "Charlie. Smith was wearing a police hat, a baton in his arm, and a gun bag around his waist, standing in front of the gangway, urging constantly: "Hurry, hurry! ”
"Five minutes, all board the ship and sail out of the port!"
More than 50 customs agents with rifles and uniforms lined up in a neat line were forming a column and boarding three anti-smuggling ships step by step under the lights of the pier.
Tonight.
Customs has action!
Ask for a monthly pass, ask the old man to enjoy the meal.
