I sat there in fear and uneasiness.

I think his analysis is correct, and he has a very thorough grasp of Principal Zhang's situation. From this, I am even more suspicious that he is manipulating Zhang Shiyu's affairs, because it is beneficial to him. But I am just suspicious.

At the same time, I felt that my suspicion had no basis at all, and he also told me that such things were beyond his control, and he was not that bad.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's a pity that such a person has become the president of the university now. I don't know if I should have helped him. Uncle Lin, you don't know that in my heart, the university is like this

This place should be like an ivory tower, it should be so pure, it should be a pure land. It's a pity..."

He burst out laughing immediately and pointed at me until he was speechless.

I was stunned, "Am I right? University is a place to cultivate talents, but now it has been turned into a mess. It is really sad."

He was still smiling, "You, you are so innocent sometimes. Today's universities are not what you imagined. It is true that in the past ten years, the scale of higher education has expanded, and China has become the largest university in the world.

One of the countries. From elite education to mass education, more young people have the opportunity to go to college. This is indeed a huge achievement. But have you seen it? Nowadays, college campuses are full of advertising banners. Anyone with money can

You can find a podium in the university. Many officials have become visiting professors in the university. Moreover, there is a serious lack of investment in education, and the uneven distribution of educational resources is becoming more and more serious. Therefore, the university has to continue to expand enrollment and rely on acquisition.

Tuition fees are used to maintain operations, and at the same time, various classes are held to generate so-called income. This is the result of the marketization of education. Nowadays, universities also advocate letting some teachers get rich first. In fact, it is understandable for some teachers to get more money. The problem

It cannot be without management, otherwise some professors may just teach for money, and this will cause inequality between the rich and the poor in the school, and serious polarization. The school will become a market, and people will become very snobbish, which is not conducive to the construction of school spirit or the construction of disciplines. You

Say that’s the case?”

I nodded and couldn't help but sigh, "That's true. I didn't expect you to know so much about the university."

"Know yourself and your enemy and you will win in any battle. This is the same truth. Since I am planning to do university projects in the future, of course I have to fully understand the situation of the university. In fact, in addition to the situation I just mentioned, the current university we discussed earlier

The relationship between the principal and the secretary is also one of the shortcomings of the current universities. Nowadays, universities have become officialized, and school managers are now assigned administrative levels according to the officialdom. The school also has the so-called deputy ministerial level, departmental level, etc.

The motivation is not necessarily bad. It may be to help the school gain resources. But the consequences are very bad. This completely encourages the school’s officialdom. Some officials in government departments who cannot get promoted go to universities to become principals and secretaries.

, isn’t it making schools more official-oriented? Some party committee secretaries at the departmental level are also highly professional. They are all expatriates and do not understand business, so it is difficult to get into the status quo. [`Novel`] Nowadays, universities are becoming more official.

, whoever becomes the leader will get more resources, so that some professors are also vying to be the director, which is a bit sad. What is more serious is that many university secretaries and presidents cannot distinguish the responsibilities. It is said that it is the president's responsibility system under the leadership of the party committee.

However, if there is no separation between the party and the government, who is ultimately responsible? Often, the stronger one is the real leader. If not, they will conflict with each other and affect their work. The official position causes intellectuals to lose their independent thoughts and judgments, lose their minds, and lose their ability.

Soul. The evil roots of the traditional patriarchal system and intricate interpersonal networks have grown and corroded the spirit of Chinese universities formed in modern times." He continued.

I think so. Because I thought of President Tang, and President Wang Xin, not to mention President Zhang. Back then, he even did such things in order to become the vice president of the hospital.

"Also, academic corruption is serious now. Fake achievements and fake knowledge are everywhere. Academic conferences, achievement appraisals, qualification reviews, and project approval processes are generally just a formality. Eating, drinking, playing, giving gifts, building relationships, and making deals have become the real content.

. Problems such as this are very serious in universities, especially the problem of corruption. Colleges and universities have now become a vacuum zone for anti-corruption, because few people pay attention to the corruption problem in colleges and universities. Most of the people in universities are intellectuals.

It’s easy to fool, and most intellectuals are timid and like to muddle along and don’t want to make many problems bigger. This provides an excellent soil for corruption for principals and secretaries. I once heard a university president say that teachers should be treated very

They have a bad attitude because they are afraid of the leaders, but they must be gentler in front of the support staff, because sometimes they are desperate for their lives. You see, this is the current situation of your university." He then said with a smile.

I couldn't help but sigh.

"Feng Xiao, I didn't say these words to you casually. Mainly because I thought that you are a doctor at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital and a teacher at the same time. It will definitely be beneficial to you in the future if you understand something like this.

Yes, you said you don't want to be an official, but things are normal. You may not have the opportunity to be a school leader in the future. If the organization insists on letting you do such a thing, can you escape? Actually,

It is best for you to be a doctor and a leader at the same time, not for corruption, but to obtain more social resources. For example, if you go out to eat with officials outside, if they only know that you are

For an ordinary doctor, their attitude towards you will definitely be very indifferent, let alone if you want to ask them to do things for you. Do you think this is the case?" He looked at me with a smile and asked.

I couldn't help but remain silent because what he said was indeed true.

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter anymore, let's talk about your Principal Zhang." He then smiled and said, "Feng Xiao, tell me, what kind of mood does your Principal Zhang feel now?"

"What's the point? I must be very annoyed and angry, but there's nothing I can do about it." I shook my head with a wry smile.

"Tell me, how did you talk to Zhang Shiyu after you arrived in Beijing?" he asked me.

So I told him the exact conversation between me and Zhang Shiyu, and then said, "There is nothing I can do, she is determined."

He nodded, "Actually, even if you agree to marry her now, she will not look back. Maybe her purpose at first was to get revenge on her father, but now she may be immersed in the joy of being famous. She is still very young,

She doesn’t know the dangers involved at all. Alas! This Zhang Shiyu, if she does such a thing at such a young age, her life will be over from now on.”

I don't agree with his view, "What if she really becomes famous? Even if she is not fired, it won't affect her to do other things in the future, right? For example, she might start her own company or something."

He shook his head and said: "Feng Xiao, you don't know that sometimes public opinion can kill people. Can a girl of her age withstand the pressure of such public opinion?"

I suddenly felt uncomfortable. You know, after all, Zhang Shiyu and I had that kind of relationship? [

He looked at me as if he knew what I was thinking, "Feng Xiao, the only thing you can do now is to wait. There is no other way."

"What do you mean?" I asked. Now, I am no longer scared and embarrassed, because our conversation has become an exchange between friends.

"You can only wait now. When Zhang Shiyu is at the lowest point in her life, you can help her immediately, so that she will not go to a dead end. Now...hey! She is already addicted to fame and revenge.

She's gone, and no one can make her look back." He sighed and shook his head.

I said silently, and after a while I sighed and said: "Maybe this is the only way. In fact, each of us walks our own path, and no one can blame others. If I can help her in the future, it will be considered as a friend.

It’s an obligation.”

"What you said is good. In fact, we are fulfilling our obligations as friends many times. In addition, we are also fulfilling our social responsibilities. You said that I have earned so much money, can I spend it all by myself? So only

Only when you fulfill more social responsibilities will you feel meaningful. Alas! But many people nowadays don’t understand it. There is nothing we can do about it." He then sighed and said.

I was a little surprised, "What? When you say that, it sounds like someone is saying something bad about you, right?"

He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Nowadays, people not only hate officials, but also hate rich people. It's okay to hate officials, because many of the current officials do have problems. But hating rich people also depends on the situation, right? You said that our Jiangnan Group

, we have solved the employment problems of so many people and done so many public welfare undertakings, but there are still people gossiping behind their backs. What is even more annoying is that some of those gossiping are officials. To be honest, I think

I am still very conscientious. As I said just now, how much money do I need to spend on myself? How much can I eat for three meals a day? I only have a few square meters to sleep at night. My wife is still the same, and I don’t even have a mistress.

I don’t even have children of my own. What do I do with so much money? In fact, I used to think about this question a lot: What do I do with so much money? It’s better to be like some people and keep millions in the bank.

, wouldn’t it be better to have a bungalow, a luxury car, and travel around the world? But later I figured it out, in fact, I have regarded the development of Jiangnan Group as my own career. I must make money and serve more people.

To provide employment opportunities, we must provide opportunities for those who need help. I think this is a life that I find meaningful. So, now my purpose is no longer purely to make money, money is already important to me.

It’s just a number and a concept. Living a healthy life and doing what you like is what I pursue.”

"What you said is so good." I sighed with emotion. Suddenly I felt that something was wrong with my words, so I hurriedly added: "You are not just saying it, but you are also doing it. This is the most noble thing about you."

He immediately laughed and said, "I'm not as noble as you said. In fact, I just like and like to do things that I like. For example, when I discover a project and feel that it will definitely make money, I will find a way no matter how difficult it is.

Get it and do it well. This is like a drug addict who can't restrain himself when he sees drugs, and he can also get a lot of fun from it. This is the most fundamental reason. Haha! Another example is what we mentioned last time

I am very interested in the opera house project that I arrived at, and the following work is almost in progress. By the way, now that you are back, you still need to find a way to communicate with Governor Huang about the matter."

"Okay. I'll contact Kang Demao tomorrow. I'm just looking for him." I nodded.

"Do you have anything else to ask him about?" he asked me.

I nodded, "Yes. The project in my hometown is currently experiencing financial difficulties, and I would like to invite the standing president of the Provincial Construction Bank out for a meal. I will need Kang Demao to accompany me then."

"You are already very familiar with President Chang?" he asked me in surprise.

I nodded, "We have met several times and had a meal together. Our current relationship seems to be pretty good."

He looked at me, his eyes burning, "Feng Xiao, this President Chang is not a woman that is easy to deal with. I have been in contact with her many times, but this person is very troublesome because she is not greedy. And this little woman is special

Be principled. You have been in contact with her, tell me, is this the impression she gave you?"

I shook my head and said: "I don't know the details very well. But judging from my contact with her, she doesn't seem to be that difficult to deal with. Last time I went to find her for a friend's loan, but she

She agreed readily. Maybe she did it for Kang Demao's sake?"

"Maybe. But not necessarily. Feng Xiao, one of your strengths is that you have a very charming personality. Maybe you haven't discovered this advantage yourself. Feng Xiao, let me tell you, you must win over that person.

The relationship with President Chang must be handled well, and the relationship must be brought closer no matter how much it costs. The project of my opera house requires a large amount of funds, and such a relationship is very needed in the future. The success of a project is closely related to future financing channels.

Whether it is smooth or not has a big bearing on it," he said, looking a little excited.

"I'll try my best," I said.

"It's not that I try my best, it's a must." He said seriously, "Recently, I am still worrying about future financing. In the past, my projects rarely went for financing, but in recent years, the scale of the company has continued to expand, and the front line has been stretched too far.

, the funding difficulties gradually emerged. And the current opportunity for listing is not mature, so financing channels become more and more important. Feng Xiao, I know that the funds for your project are very tight. I see this,

I will immediately ask the finance department to transfer two million to your personal account. This money will mainly be used for your communication expenses with the bank. What do you think? Is it enough?"

"No. I'll just treat her to a meal. It won't cost much," I said.

"Eating can only connect the relationship. To really bind her together, you have to invest. Do you understand?" He shook his head and said.

"Not necessarily? Since she is so honest, I think there is no need to do certain things. Maybe it will be counterproductive." I said.

"It makes sense." He nodded and said, "Well, let me transfer the money to your bank card so that you can handle it easily if necessary. This is called being prepared."

"That's what I borrowed from you." I said with a smile, which was considered an agreement.

He glared at me, "We are a family, what do you mean by borrowing or not borrowing?"

I laughed sheepishly.

"That's it for today. You haven't gone home yet, have you? Then go home and have dinner. I have an arrangement tonight." He said immediately.

I stood up immediately, but he immediately made a gesture for me to sit down, "Wait a minute, there is one more thing."

So I sat down again and looked at him.

"If Principal Zhang comes to you these days, try to hide away. If you can't hide, be careful when answering his questions. He doesn't seem to be normal lately," he said.
