Fang Wenping was unwilling to give up. The school anniversary event was the best way for him to make friends with powerful people over the years. Li Xinghe canceled it with just one word.
Qian Liang sent the four treasures of the study worth a million dollars and had to put them up for auction before they were warmed up. The money could not be put into his pocket. It was heartbreaking to think about it.
“Is this decision a bit hasty?
How about..." Fang Wenping asked tentatively.
Li Xinghe smiled and said: "Principal Fang, my previous suggestions are still valid. If I don't see your resignation within three days, I think your end will not be much better than Ji Deming."
Fang Wenping trembled all over, and Li Xinghe seemed to have no intention of letting him go.
Wang Qizheng also heard about what happened before. In the eyes of others, this may not be a big deal, but Fang Wenping is the head of a school, and his attitude is enough to explain some problems.
If such people continue to be allowed to serve as principals, the unhealthy trend will become more serious, and the next generation will be affected in the end. This is the real big problem.
"Principal Fang, since you're over 60, why not retire and enjoy your old age?"
Wang Qizheng said meaningfully: "Don't make each other look bad!"
Originally, he wanted to explain, but even Wang Qizheng said so. Fang Wenping was suddenly unable to refute. It seemed that his career as a principal could only end here.
"I...will retire and resign soon."
Fang Wenping looked dejected. He thought this year would be the most grand and glorious school celebration, but he didn't expect it to be the last one.
Things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that the little boy from a rural background who was least favored at the beginning would grow up to be the president of the Qingbei Chamber of Commerce, with a net worth of billions?
If it weren't for Hong Chuan and Ji Deming, Fang Wenping wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable ending.
Now it's too late to regret it. All I can do is obey Li Xinghe's wishes and retire with dignity to enjoy his old age.
It was said that it was decent, but the reputable people present knew very well, especially since Fang Wenping invited other high school principals to show off, not only would he lose his face, but he would also lose his holiday.
The arrogant and arrogant people have received the lesson they deserve. Now everyone who is supposed to come has arrived, and students have been arranged to enter the auditorium one after another. It is unreasonable to cancel the school anniversary event directly.
"Some of the unhealthy tendencies of Qingbei High School over the years may be reversed starting this year."
Wang Qizheng looked at Li Xinghe with a smile, "Mr. Li, you are a student who graduated from Qingbei High School. Now with your wealth and achievements, you may be able to teach the students a good lesson."
"You mean..."
"Well, come and say a few words to these students! I believe your deeds can give them more inspiration, especially those poor but hard-working students. You are their role model and strength, allowing them to see hope and the future.
.”
Xu Yiman nodded in agreement, "Xinghe, Mayor Wang is right, it is most appropriate for you to be the representative to give the speech."
"But I'm not prepared either!"
"No need to prepare, just say what you want. Students will like it more if it is more realistic."
Xu Yiman smiled.
Li Xinghe hesitated for a few seconds and responded: "Okay, then I'll go up and say a few words."
Soon, the auditorium was filled with students and everything was arranged.
The host was very smart and got into the situation quickly.
"Dear guests, leaders and classmates, today we have invited a special person. He once attended Qingbei High School and is now a leader in our Qingbei financial industry. He started from scratch and became worth billions in a few years."
The entire audience was in an uproar, and all eyes turned to the stage.
The same speaker usually speaks every year, not to mention the teachers who understand what is going on, even the ignorant high school students know it very well.
A rich second generation with no ability takes this opportunity to show off, which makes people feel sick.
But this year, the person on stage seems to be different. He started from scratch and has a net worth of several billions. This is not an ordinary person, and it immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.
“Now I’d like to invite Mr. Li Xinghe Li, who graduated from Qingbei High School in 2004. Everyone welcomes him with applause.”
The applause sounded, but it was not enthusiastic. The students were more curious than enthusiastically welcomed.
Li Xinghe slowly came on stage, with a slim and tall figure and a handsome face. Although his clothes were not brand-name, they were clean and tidy, giving people a warm and sunny feeling.
It looks like the sunny campus grass in the university, and people can't help but feel good about it.
"Hello everyone, I am Li Xinghe."
The auditorium, which was originally buzzing with discussions, was instantly quelled by this low, slightly magnetic voice.
Li Xinghe was still a little nervous. After all, it was his first time to speak in front of so many people. The feeling of being focused on by the whole audience was not a good one for him.
"You must have heard too many beautiful words and empty words and have long since become tired of them. Today I will tell you something real."
"Family conditions do not determine a person's life. Study hard and get into a good university. Knowledge is the best weapon to change your destiny. Only by knowing more can you have the right to choose. Otherwise, you can only wait to be chosen."
"Also, no matter what your future achievements may be, you must never forget your original intention. Only by staying true to your original intention can you go further."
These words seemed to be addressed to the students, but in fact they were Li Xinghe's self-encouragement.
In this life, he has lived a completely different life. The more money he has, the easier it is to get lost. If these people who despise and despise him don't remind him from time to time, maybe Li Xinghe will be immersed in success and cannot extricate himself.
Speaking of which, these people can be regarded as his motivation on the way forward. With them, Li Xinghe can be constantly vigilant and keep himself calm and wise.
After he finished speaking, there was no reaction from the people in the audience. Could it be that everyone was used to Hong Chuan's brainwashing and didn't feel comfortable with such a straightforward speech?
The atmosphere was slightly awkward. Li Xinghe scratched his head and continued: "Well...that's all I have to say. I don't want to waste too much time on everyone. It's getting late. Let's do what we should do!"
There was still silence, no one seemed to have thought that this was all that such a heavyweight financial boss had to say...
"Oh, by the way, in addition to the materials donated by the company bosses, I will add an additional 10 million to the school's poverty fund, which can be used as a financial aid for poor students or as a scholarship."
Ten million was donated casually, but if it had been someone else, they would have donated ten million without making a big show of it, setting up a banner and a plaque, and then inviting the media to take photos and publish the news in a very grand manner.
But Li Xinghe just said a few words and gave away 10 million yuan.
Not to mention these inexperienced high school students, even the financial tycoons sitting in the audience looked surprised.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, let's leave!"
Li Xinghe waved his hand.
After another few seconds of silence, Li Xinghe frowned slightly and was about to leave the stage in embarrassment when thunderous applause suddenly broke out from the audience.
