Chapter 699: College Management Committee

12.25.

On Christmas Eve, the Dream Castle is brightly lit.

There is a layer of colorful neon outside the castle, which is the colorful lights that Mary asked to arrange.

Two araucaria were planted outside the gate of the castle, which were also hung with lanterns and blessing cards, as well as various dolls, accessories and gifts.

As the most popular and important family festival in western countries, this day is the most lively.

No matter what was going on, people rushed home whenever they got the chance.

Little old man West was also invited to the castle, which had become their Christmas routine.

"Do you have any plans to retire?" Standing in front of the Christmas tree, watching the little ones around the Christmas tree picking gifts, Li Zitao and West were talking.

The little old man is no longer young. Although he is equipped with assistants, doctors, housekeepers and servants, etc., he still cannot escape the traces of time.

"Wait a little longer." West looked at the laughing children and said with a kind smile, "I want to leave it to Lilith."

"En." Li Zitao snorted, agreeing.

West was talking about Li's real estate, and Li Zitao guessed that he had such an idea as early as when he asked Lilith to call her 'grandfather'.

In the future of Aiden and Mason, one will inherit the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce and Lee Holdings Bank, and the other will inherit SHIELD and Los Angeles City Bank.

Both Mobil Alaska and Dezhou oil field real estate are in the hands of Li's real estate. With this bond, the children may be more harmonious in the future.

"The Astor family's cannery and our slaughterhouse cooperated to win the military's food supply orders. Ham and steak are really luxurious supplies."

West said with a little emotion, he was also a person who had been on the battlefield, but at that time he mainly relied on cold weapons and knights, and ate bread that could choke people to death.

"The times are advancing, old man, don't be eliminated." Li Zitao laughed while pressing his shoulder.

"Go away, bastard." West slapped his hand off angrily, and laughed loudly as he spoke.

West left the next day, and he was going to watch the Oregon eco-resort near completion.

The Oregon eco-resort, covering an area of ​​30,000 acres, was built according to the original plan.

A 500-acre leisure resort and an 8,000-acre safe camping area. According to the little old man, this place is a good place to hunt wild warblers.

The first batch of mountain bikes built by Pioneer Technology will be put here for experiments.

The most troublesome thing is the two cables going up and down from the top of the mountain in the plan, which seriously delayed the progress of the project.

If it weren't for the street census questionnaire, everyone ticked the snow mountain and the cable car, West really wanted to cancel them.

In addition, he also built a biological museum here, where ferocious beasts acquired from various places and hunted locally were made into specimens for tourists to visit.

The hunting area has also been approved. Although the management is very strict, this gimmick can still attract the interest of many people.

The combination of vacationing, treading water, visiting museums, skiing, camping, and high-altitude cable cars will definitely attract countless "Buddhist" people.

...

Los Angeles, Dewey Union College Los Angeles.

The construction of the college near Houston Street is progressing very quickly, and preparations for enrollment have already begun.

As the principal of the school and the actual funder, Li Zitao should also show up during the construction of the school, otherwise someone would have forgotten him.

"Library?" Hearing John Dewey's proposal, Li Zitao was a little surprised and said, "Build a library in a resort?"

The two walked side by side on the road, talking about the ecological resort.

Li Zitao originally wanted to make a name for the resort, so that Dewey could properly publicize it and turn the rich educators around him into customers.

Who knew that he suddenly proposed to build a library in the resort.

"Since it's the leisure time on vacation, how can we be without the company of books, lying by the river, listening to the gurgling of the stream, enjoying the sunshine, isn't it a kind of enjoyment to read in such an environment?"

looked at him deeply,

Li Zitao felt that what he said was so reasonable that no one could refute it.

For these scholars and educators, wherever they go, they may change the environment for reading books, and the emphasis is on 'books'.

"I'll have someone build the library. As for the books..." It's not a problem to build a library. Li Zitao thinks it's a good idea after thinking about it.

Books are printed with the words of Dewey Union College, which can be regarded as an alternative kind of publicity.

"The books are all sponsored by the school." Dewey is also rich and powerful now, and it is not his money that is spent anyway.

In fact, the cost will not be too high. The books in the school are donated by Dewey's contacts, and many classic books are sponsored by various parties.

This is the benefit of running education. Whether you really want to do charity or to gild yourself, donations in this area can be widely praised by the public.

If a person or family wants to enter the upper class, charity is essential.

It opens up connections, boosts prestige, status, public credibility, and more.

Just like the aid station run by Li Zitao, the invisible 'wealth' provided to him so far is immeasurable.

There are also meals under the Golden Arches, McDonald's and Subway, and the full subsidy of the parent company has also "accidentally" leaked out.

The people below are always a little sloppy in doing things, really careless.

"The meeting is about to start, let's go!" Dewey made a gesture of invitation, inviting Li Zitao to participate in the next discussion.

"In recent years, the college has adopted a mixed system in terms of enrollment. We have received a lot of praise, but wealthy families rarely choose it.

Have we considered setting up elite classes and the like to expand the source of students and influence? " said the fat man with a happy face and a happy face.

Dewey's school management committee has 7 members, responsible for managing all matters of the school, including enrollment, expansion, daily management, system, logistics and so on.

Apart from financial aspects, everything that happens in the school is under the control of the committee.

Dewey is the honorary principal, the chairman of the management committee, and one of the other six is ​​from the secretarial office, who is responsible for recording and supervising financial audits.

The other five are from within the school, one professor, one administrator, one logistics, one school discipline, and one businessman.

It was the businessman who spoke just now, and as a contractor for the school's in-house cafeteria and store, he knew some things about the school better than others.

His smooth personality, his identity, and that round face that makes people feel happy when they see him make him get along with many students.

So he is also the person who understands the mentality of the students best, but sometimes, he hopes that the expansion of the school will develop faster.
