Chapter 418: Generous Donation
Wu Xiang heard the meaning of Ye Tai'an's words.
This obviously meant that he was in trouble and wanted him to help solve it.
Wu Xiang has his own principles and perseverance, and will not seek personal gain with power.
But Ye Tai'an has the funds and resources to build a Hope Primary School in Shitou County.
Wu Xiang felt very uncomfortable when he thought of those children who were still attending classes in classrooms that had drafts from all sides, cold winters and hot summers, and leaks on rainy days, so he gritted his teeth and said, "President Ye, if you encounter anything, you can tell me. As long as I can help, I won’t hesitate.”
Hearing this, Ye Tai'an showed a satisfied smile: "Actually, it's just a small matter. My son was studying at Jiangcheng Business School. He was expelled from the school because he made a small mistake. I personally called their major shareholder, but The major shareholder actually refused my son's request to go back to school. This is obviously not what a social person involved in education should do. When students make mistakes, education should be the main thing, and punishment should be supplemented. Criticism and education should be given to let students realize. Just make a mistake, you can’t just fire someone, right?”
Hearing these words, Wu Xiang couldn't help but roll his eyes.
He knew what kind of virtue Ye Tai'an's son was.
To be honest, if Ye Haiyang hadn't had Ye Tai'an, he would have been expelled countless times.
The major shareholder of Jiangcheng Business School fired Ye Haiyang, and Wu Xiang just wanted to applaud that major shareholder.
Well done, students like Ye Haiyang should be expelled!
But now that Ye Tai'an has 20 million in donations and supplies, Wu Xiang wants to ask Ye Tai'an for help. Naturally, he can't express his feelings and can only say: "The behavior of the major shareholder of Jiangcheng Business School is indeed inappropriate."
"There's nothing wrong with it, it's simply too much!" Ye Tai'an said in a deep voice, "There are no students who can't teach well, there are only teachers who can't teach. If students make mistakes and they are expelled, then what else do teachers need to do? We, as parents, Yes, why are you sending your children to school?”
"Jiangcheng Business School's approach is a bad start, which is very detrimental to education and is likely to affect the education of Jiangcheng as a whole."
"If every school handles students' mistakes so roughly, then who will dare to let their children go to school in the future?"
"I think you should pursue your own affairs while in office. You should investigate and resolutely curb this bad trend. Don't let the people of the country see our Jiangcheng joke!"
Those words were said with awe-inspiring justice.
"What you said makes sense. I'll call Jiangcheng Business School and ask." Wu Xiang said bravely.
There was no way, Ye Tai'an had to say it for this reason, he always had to express his position.
"Okay, I'll wait for your good news." Ye Tai'an hung up the phone with satisfaction.
Xu Yang is awesome, but no matter how awesome he is, as long as you want Jiangcheng Business School to be good, you have to listen to Wu Xiang.
After ending the call, Wu Xiang did not call immediately, but thought carefully before calling Principal Zhou, asked for Xu Yang's phone number, and then called Xu Yang.
"Hello, is this Mr. Xu?" Wu Xiang said.
"I am, are you..." Xu Yang asked.
"Hello, I'm Wu Xiang from the Education Bureau. I heard that you expelled a student named Ye Haiyang from your school, right?" Wu Xiang asked.
"What, you want to take care of this?" Xu Yang raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Xu, don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to get involved in this matter, but Ye Haiyang's father, Ye Tai'an, has a special status. He is the president of the Longhua Charity Association."
"At the beginning of the year, Ye Tai'an said he would donate 20 million in cash and some materials to our Shitou County in Jiangcheng City."
"Shitou County is a poor county in Jiangcheng City. Many children's schooling conditions are not good. Some children drop out of school early. Even nine-year compulsory education cannot be guaranteed."
"If possible, I still hope you can let Ye Haiyang go back to school."
Wu Xiang did not forcefully tell Xu Yang what to do, but expressed his difficulties, hoping that Xu Yang would understand.
"Leader, I have decided to donate 100 million in cash and 50 million in materials to Shitou County in the name of Jiangcheng Business School."
"From now on, 30% of the annual profits of Jiangcheng Business School will be donated to Shitou County to improve the education in Shitou County until every child can at least complete Jiuniu compulsory education."
"And I will also set up a scholarship for the entire city to reward children with outstanding academic performance."
"You can bring someone to the school right away to sign a contract with us, so you don't have to care too much about Ye Tai'an's donation!"
Xu Yang already had a countermeasure, so it was not difficult for him.
Hearing this, Ye Tai'an suddenly became excited.
100 million in cash and 50 million in material donations.
In the future, donations will be made every year until all children can complete nine years of compulsory education.
Scholarships have also been established for students across the city.
Compared to Xu Yang's generosity, Ye Tai'an's donation was nothing.
And having so much money to improve education is definitely his political achievement.
So, Wu Xiang immediately said: "Mr. Xu, I am touched by your kind deeds. On behalf of the people of Shitou County and the students in the city, I would like to thank you. I will immediately take people to Jiangcheng Business School to discuss signing a contract with you. As for what I just said, you can Just pretend you didn’t hear it.”
After hanging up the phone, he did not leave immediately, but called Ye Taian first: "President Ye, I have just called Xu Yang, the major shareholder of Jiangcheng Business School. The other party's attitude is very tough. He said that he would never withdraw the decision to expel your son. I have no choice. I have something to do. I will hang up first. See you later."
Although he can't care too much about Ye Taian's donation, Ye Taian is still a big philanthropist after all, so he still has to reply.
After saying that, Wu Xiang hung up the phone.
What!
Ye Taian was stunned.
How dare Xu Yang call Wu Xiang's face? Isn't he afraid that Wu Xiang will embarrass his mother?
It's really too arrogant!
But it doesn't matter. Since Wu Xiang can't handle it, then find someone who can.
So he immediately dialed another phone number.
Soon, the call was connected.
Ye Taian said directly: "Old Dong, I encountered something and need your help."
The old Dong on the other end of the phone is named Dong Lixin.
He is the captain of a detachment of the Jiangcheng Food Safety Team.
This food safety team is a semi-official and semi-civilian organization under the Health Bureau.
Don’t underestimate this organization. They don’t have the power to enforce the law, but they have the power to investigate given by the Health Bureau. As long as they find a problem, they can report it to the Health Bureau.
Then the Health Bureau will enforce the law and say that your restaurant will be closed without negotiation.
This is like a traffic controller wearing a vest on the road. They don’t have the power to enforce the law, but if you run a red light, they will pull you aside for education. If you don’t obey, don’t admit your mistake, and still make trouble, they will report it to the traffic police, and the traffic police will enforce the law.
At that time, you will have no place to cry.
So, this is a very important organization.
