The campus was silent for a few seconds before cheers ten times louder than before broke out. The students threw everything they had in the sky and swarmed towards the podium. Liu Handong had just made a victorious scissor hand gesture.
, was carried down by the crazy students and kept thrown into the air.
Xia Qingshi shook his head with a wry smile. Liu Handong had to hold on for the children to express their enthusiasm in this way. If it were his old arms and legs, they would fall apart.
The commotion lasted for a long time and finally subsided. Liu Handong announced that the strike was over and everyone should go back to class. More than 1,800 students immediately returned to the classroom obediently and took away all the tents, benches and trash when they left. The efficiency was amazing.
"Director Xia, I suspect that the strike was planned and directed by him. He is a conspirator." Chen Yada couldn't stand this feeling of loss, so she secretly applied eye drops to Liu Handong.
Xia Qingshi glanced at him and said lightly: "What does it matter whether it is yes or no?"
Chen Yada was filled with shame and anger. He thought he could become the principal. He even booked a large private room in Bao Chi Tower. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin came out halfway and took away the position that should belong to him. How could he tolerate this?
This is unbearable, I quit!
"Director Xia, I can't figure it out!" Chen Yada said bravely, "Liu Handong is still carrying a suspended sentence. Letting him be the dean of students is the bottom line for all our faculty and staff to tolerate. Appointing him as the principal is really unacceptable to us. On behalf of all the faculty and staff
I submit a verbal protest to you, Liu Handong becomes the principal, and we leave!"
The next few teachers, all of whom were related to Chen Yada for many years, expressed their support one after another. The mood was exciting and indignant, which was in complete contrast to the joy of the students below.
Xia Qingshi smiled faintly. The School of Transportation has the title of a fifth-category junior college. In fact, it does not have its own teaching staff at all. There are many functional departments, including offices, academic affairs offices, logistics offices, teaching and research offices, women's federations, and trade unions.
A group of aunts and wives who are leading cadres of the Transportation Bureau. Only a few people can actually teach in class. Most of the substitute teachers are hired from outside, so these people are gone and have no impact on the school at all.
"Principal Liu Handong was elected by the students, not appointed by me. Although I am the chairman of the school board, I have no right to replace the elected principal without any legitimate reasons." Xia Qingshi blocked Chen Yada and others in one sentence.
go back.
Chen Yada was speechless and was stunned for half a minute before saying: "But there is no reason for students to choose the principal. Our Transportation College used to be a subordinate unit of the Transportation Bureau. The principal was appointed by the superiors. Now that it has been acquired by Qingshi High-tech, the principal should be appointed by the group.
Company appointments and student elections are unconventional and unreasonable. Students don’t understand anything and are easily deceived..."
He kept talking, and a group of people behind him cheered him up from time to time, shouting that Director Chen was right and students should not be allowed to elect the principal. This was nonsense.
Xia Qingshi laughed again: "Your thinking is very normal. The cadres in our country are all appointed by superiors. They are only responsible to the leaders and never care about what the people below think. On the contrary, democratic election has become a very unethical thing. I understand, but democratic election
It is a necessary path and cannot be avoided. If the Transportation College leaves you faculty and staff, I can quickly recruit a group of new people, but without these students, this place will no longer be a school. Do you understand?"
Chen Yada was still unwilling to give up. He said with tears in his eyes: "I have worked at the Transportation College for fifteen years and am familiar with every plant and plant here. I am willing to dedicate everything to the school! Director Xia, please think about it again."
Xia Qingshi said: "I have already thought about it. You can decide for yourself if you want to go or stay."
After that, he strode away to congratulate Liu Handong. Chen Yada wanted to follow but was stopped by the tall bodyguard.
Xia Qingshi stretched out his hand to Liu Handong: "Congratulations."
Liu Handong held Xia Qingshi's right hand tightly: "Thank you."
Xia Qingshi said: "Don't thank me. You let the students understand what resistance and revolution are, and I let them understand what democracy and elections are. We may not be able to reverse the course of history, but our efforts will at least make these 1,800
Fifty-six students have made a little progress compared to before."
The two shook hands tightly, saying nothing.
…
When the dust settled, Liu Handong took office as the principal of the Transportation College, and his office was moved from the discipline office to the largest room upstairs. The handymen in the logistics office were busy cleaning and moving out the original desks, chairs, and sofas. The school was the same as the institution.
, what the previous leader has used, the next leader will definitely not use again, this is the rule.
The director of the Logistics Department stood attentively next to Liu Handong, holding a small book to record. Liu Handong put his hands behind his back and said: "Just buy boards for your office desk and chairs. Find a carpenter to build a bookshelf, remove the sofa, and put a treadmill.
Hang another sandbag over there."
"What kind of computer should I use? Apple's latest all-in-one computer with a 30-inch screen is good." said the logistics director.
Liu Handong waved his hand: "No need, I have my own notebook."
"Principal Liu, the canteen is still empty. Do you think we can designate one?" the logistics director asked again.
"Let's invite bids, fair competition." Liu Handong was busy texting.
"Then I'll make arrangements." The director of the logistics department hurried out and found Chen Yada muttering.
"Trying to capture him as the canteen contractor and causing some scandal is not just a joke."
"You arrange it, and I will be responsible for breaking the news. By the way, have the cameras on the ceiling of the principal's office been installed?"
"Sure."
At this moment, Liu Handong was putting his feet up on the table and calling Ma Ling: "Driver Ma, come to the Transportation College after get off work."
Ma Ling said: "Didn't you let the public security bureau arrest you again? What, you came out?"
"What are you talking about? The Public Security Bureau asked me to assist in the investigation, not to arrest me. My identity is different now. I won't talk to you anymore. We can discuss it later when you come."
After hanging up the phone, he pondered for a moment and called his mother again: "Mom, what are you doing?"
"I'm shopping for groceries. When will you be back?"
"I've been busy with work lately. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back. Mom, why don't you and Uncle He come to Omi? I've got a new job to celebrate."
"Oh, what's a good job? Become a civil servant?"
"Civil servants are not as good as me. Mom, I have become the principal, the president of the university, and the most serious head of the Transportation College."
Shuiqin said: "Xiaodong, have you drank?"
"I didn't drink. It's true." Liu Handong wanted to explain, but he thought it was unbelievable. He became the principal just like in a dream. How could he explain this?
"Drink less, don't drive after drinking, and get some rest early. Your Uncle He and I will visit you another day." Shuiqin hung up the phone.
Liu Handong was sitting behind his desk, feeling uncomfortable all over. It felt amazing to be the leader. He had the power of personnel and finance, and he could fire whoever he wanted. He could just say what office supplies he wanted to buy, and there was also a black Passat sedan for him.
It's free for you to use, not to mention gasoline, tolls and parking fees, and there's a full-time driver.
The biggest problem at present is students' three meals a day. The cafeteria cannot provide catering services, so we have to open the door first and allow students to eat out. There are countless small restaurants and food stalls on the street in front of the school. They are cheap and plentiful. This problem cannot be solved.
Difficult to solve.
After solving the urgent problem, it is the establishment of school spirit and discipline. Liu Handong is good at this. With him, people in the society dare not come to make trouble. In short, it is not difficult to deal with the students. It is difficult to deal with these staff.
Workers, they must be dissatisfied with their young new principal and want to hold back bad ideas to punish themselves.
…
At three o'clock in the afternoon, someone knocked on the door. Liu Handong said to come in, put down his legs on the table, and sat upright.
A wretched fat man came in, wearing black-rimmed glasses and holding a kraft paper portfolio under his arm. He bowed before entering and took out Su cigarettes: "Principal Liu, smoke."
"Who are you?" Liu Handong asked.
"My surname is Qian, Qian Aiguo, just call me Xiao Qian." Qian Aiguo presented a business card with both hands. His title was the general manager of a catering service company.
"That's it. I heard that our school's canteen is inviting bids, so I wanted to come and communicate with Principal Liu. We are very experienced in making canteens. We are the contractors for the canteens of Omi No. 2 Middle School, No. 5 Vocational High School, and Yunshan Mechanical School.
Yes, we purchase ingredients and accessories in a unified manner, eliminating water-injected meat, gutter oil, and we don’t even use genetically modified oil. We absolutely guarantee the health of students..." Qian Aiguo said with a smile and opened the file bag.
"Okay, we will conduct a public bidding, and Manager Qian will be here then." Liu Handong subconsciously looked over and saw Qian Aiguo taking out stacks of brand-new banknotes from the portfolio, with bank seals on them, and there were five.
As many as sixty thousand.
"I came in a hurry, and I didn't prepare any gifts. It's a small gift, but I hope Principal Liu will accept it." Qian Aiguo piled the banknotes on the table, his eyes narrowed into a smile.
Liu Handong suddenly became vigilant. He found Qian Aiguo as soon as he became the principal. The speed was too fast. There was only one possibility. He had acquaintances in the school and they were middle-level or above cadres. Bribery was considered bribery. He couldn't be so straightforward.
The money is piled on the table, are you afraid that no one can see it? There is something wrong with it!
He stood up suddenly and slapped the table: "How dare you pay a bribe! Take your dirty money and get out of here. The Transportation College cannot tolerate a contractor like you."
Qian Aiguo was disgraced and put away the banknotes angrily. Liu Handong rang the security bell and asked two security guards to send Qian Aiguo out. He would never be welcomed back again.
As soon as he came downstairs, Chen Yada and the director of the Logistics Office came up to him. Qian Aiguo shook his head at them with a sad face, saying that the matter had gone wrong.
Liu Handong saw this scene and couldn't help but sneer, "You are still young when you fight me with this little trick."
When he returned to the office, he called Tu Hongbin: "Shanpao, I have become the principal, and the canteen of the Transportation College will be provided for you. You can't let me down."
Shan Pao was not surprised at all: "Brother Dong, it's not that I'm flattering you. If you don't become the principal, your talents will be blinded in vain. There's no need to say that I did it. I didn't make a penny at all costs, but I still have to help you run the canteen."
I’m so pretty, I’ll give you face!”
"We'll talk about it when we get back tonight." Liu Handong heard the knock on the door again, put down the phone, and said seriously: "Come in."
The door opened a crack, and Ma Ling's head poked in: "Liu Handong, what are you doing in the principal's office?"
