Chapter 309: Thousands of Troops Cross a Single-Plank Bridge!
January 14, 1979.
Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School High School.
Except for Principal Yang, all the high school teachers of Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School came.
They suddenly received the news yesterday afternoon that Mr. Yang would come to inspect their school.
What does this mean?
Not only Principal Yang was excited, but other teachers were also very excited.
They came early and cleaned up with their classmates to welcome Mr. Yang.
Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School is divided into high school and junior high school.
Before this, the two-two system was implemented. Even so, there are still students taking the college entrance examination since the resumption of the college entrance examination.
"Principal, it seems that Mr. Yang is here."
Principal Yang and others saw many small cars coming here outside the school gate of the high school.
When did they see so many small cars?
This time, in addition to Yang Ming, Ah Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, and Chen Zhenhua, these bodyguards, Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang and others, a total of nearly sixty or seventy people.
Yang Ming really attaches great importance to education, but he doesn't like to let others wait for him too long.
He guessed that his casual words were taken as "imperial edicts" by others.
After a simple breakfast, Yang Ming got on the bus and left the Sanjiaotang Production Team, heading to Longchuan County.
On the first night back, it was a little dark, and Yang Ming could not see clearly.
Now in broad daylight, he finally saw the small county town clearly.
From the appearance of the small county town, the environment was pretty good.
"Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, where are we going now?" Yang Ming asked.
Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang rode in Yang Ming's Rolls-Royce for the first time, and the seats in the car were really comfortable!
"Mr. Yang, let's go to the high school department of Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School."
High school department of No. 1 Middle School?
This should be the best high school in Longchuan County!
Yang Ming's motorcade took more than an hour.
It stopped at the back road of Chiling, Longchuan County.
The principal and other teachers of the high school department of Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School all came out. They were excited, nervous, and even a little overwhelmed.
They hadn't seen the big shots from above for a long time.
What's more, the person who came this time was Mr. Yang, the richest man in Hong Kong.
The Rolls-Royce stopped, Chen Zhenhua took down the wheelchair, Yang Ming sat on the wheelchair, Ah Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, and Lin Xiuzhi followed behind.
Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang followed closely.
Yang Ming saw a middle-aged man who was about fifty years old, dressed simply and wearing thick glasses standing there, and he was a little at a loss.
"Mr. Yang, this is the principal of the high school department of No. 1 Middle School, and his surname is also Yang."
"Hello, Mr. Yang." Principal Yang came over excitedly and said.
Hearing his accent, he should be a local.
In Longchuan County, the surname Yang is also a big surname. Maybe they were a family five hundred years ago.
"Hello, Principal Yang."
Yang Ming shook hands with Principal Yang, and other school leaders around Principal Yang, male teachers, and female teachers shook hands one after another. These teachers were all dressed very simply, and this might be their best clothes.
"Principal Yang, the Chinese New Year is almost coming, and I don't want to trouble you. However, I will return to Hong Kong after the Spring Festival, so I came to see you in advance."
"Mr. Yang, we are not a bother at all."
Thinking of Mr. Yang's identity, the other party is not afraid of wasting time, so what can we count as.
Under the leadership of Principal Yang, Yang Ming and others went into the high school department.
Longchuan No. 1 Middle School is indeed the best middle school in Longchuan County, divided into junior high school and high school.
The junior high school is in another place, and the high school is here.
Before this, Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School implemented the "two-two system", that is, two years of junior high school and two years of high school. Even now, the "three-three system" has not been restored. '
Although the "three-three system" has not been restored, since 1977, the country began to resume the college entrance examination in some areas. In 1978, except for very small places, basically, the whole country has resumed the college entrance examination.
Now in 1979, middle schools, especially high schools, are being restored.
Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School is the best high school in Longchuan County. Last year, there were already high school students in the second year, or some older students who had wasted many years of youth and time, who came back to register for the college entrance examination.
So even though there are still more than ten days before the Chinese New Year, there are still many students in the high school department reviewing here.
In other words, when Yang Ming comes here, there must be high school teachers and students here.
When Yang Ming came in, he saw hundreds of students waiting here.
They heard last night that Mr. Yang, who came back from Hong Kong, came to see them today.
Yang Ming looked over and saw a group of high school students.
The ages of these high school students look a little special. Some look sixteen or seventeen years old, some may be twenty years old, or even in their twenties. In addition to being dressed very simply, some even wear old school uniforms.
When the students learned that Mr. Yang from Hong Kong came to see them at school, it was still a great shock to these young students.
Who is Mr. Yang?
The richest man in Hong Kong, or even in the Chinese community, specially returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors this time. I don’t know where it started. In addition to feeling mysterious about Mr. Yang, his hometown also felt that he was different from ordinary people.
Now I actually saw Mr. Yang coming in in a wheelchair with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Yang, these are our students taking the college entrance examination this year." Principal Yang said.
Students taking the college entrance examination?
"Our school has not yet resumed the three-year system. Now these students can apply for the college entrance examination after finishing their second year of high school. Some of them have never studied in junior high school and high school before, or they cannot study normally due to various reasons. They are super old students. However, they have a solid foundation in cultural courses and also come back to take the college entrance examination."
In those ten years, many students were indeed unable to study normally.
Some worked as farmers at home, and some even got married and had children.
For these students, studying for the college entrance examination may be the only chance to change their fate.
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977, insightful parents or insightful students have begun to review and prepare for the college entrance examination.
In this era, the college entrance examination is really a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
In 1977, the college entrance examination was hastily held. It was also the first time that the college entrance examination was resumed under the chairmanship of the old gentleman. At that time, 5.7 million people took the exam, and the final number of admitted people was 273,000, with an admission rate of 4.79%, which means that less than five out of a hundred candidates were admitted, including the number of secondary school admissions.
In 1978, the first year of the normal resumption of the college entrance examination, the number of students taking the college entrance examination was 6.1 million, and the number of students admitted was 402,000, with an admission rate of 6.59%. Although the admission rate seems high, it is more difficult for children from ordinary families to get into college.
In this era, being able to get into a technical secondary school is already a great honor.
Looking at the eyes of these students, Yang Ming asked: "Principal Yang, did anyone in our school get into college last year?"
"Yes, last year in our school, one student got into a junior college and five got into a technical secondary school."
In 1977, there were no students from Longchuan County No. 1 Middle School taking the college entrance examination. Only last year did the school start to have hundreds of students register.
However, the final number of admissions was very low.
Among them, only one was admitted to a junior college and five were admitted to a technical secondary school.
Even so, for these six college students, in this era, they are already the best in Longchuan County, and their fate has changed the moment they were admitted to college.
Most of them failed the exam and came back to repeat the year to prepare for the 1979 college entrance examination. Now Yang Ming sees that all the students who took the 1979 college entrance examination are here now.
Yang Ming knows that the questions of the newly resumed college entrance examination are not difficult, and that is also for the students of his era.
For the students of this era, they have too little time to receive education in those ten years. Whether they are smart or ordinary people, they can basically only rely on self-study, or self-study in that environment.
The college entrance examination is just a way for the country to select talents.
Even if they did not pass the exam, in this era, there are still many elite representatives of the era.
However, in Yang Ming's view, in this era, those who can pass the college entrance examination, which is a single-plank bridge for thousands of troops, are definitely very powerful!
