The matter had reached this point, and of course we were happy, so we stood up and said goodbye to him. After coming out of the vice-principal's office, the old director asked Director Leng: "Who is this principal Teng? He does things unexpectedly.
So straightforward.”
Director Leng said: "Don't underestimate him. He has received doctorates from three universities in the United States, and his research in materials science is in a leading position in the world. He is really a young talent! You see
, The style of Tsinghua University is different from that of Peking University, right? They do things so neatly and neatly, never wasting time. If it works, it will work, if it doesn’t work, it won’t work. They will tell you directly what conditions are needed, and there will be no sloppiness at all."
I also sighed: "Yes. Today's result is really beyond my expectation. Director Leng, can we tell the situation here to Peking University? In this way, they may be able to express their attitude immediately.
"
Director Leng said immediately: "No. Tsinghua University and Peking University are both top universities in the country. The two universities should be ranked in no particular order. Although their styles are different, they will never succumb to each other's attitude. To
You know, strong people are often very independent in character. Doing so is likely to be counterproductive."
The old director also said no.
I suddenly realized that I was indeed wrong, because I suddenly remembered what happened to my dead head teacher. Didn't he want to transfer to another hospital at that time? In the end, I had to find a way to get a blank transfer form. That incident
The reason should be the same as this.
I said: "Director Leng, you are right. But you should ask them about their current situation. That way we can do the next step."
Director Leng said: "I think I can stop asking them for the time being. Now that Tsinghua University is willing to work with us to make a report, we can move on to the next step. But what I am most worried about now is the funding issue. Xiao Feng,
Just now you went to bargain with others. I was really worried that the vice president would be unhappy. Haha! It seems that you are really good at doing business. Each quota is 100,000. If we add 20 quotas from Tsinghua every year
It’s only two million. If you include Peking University, if there are also twenty places at Peking University, the total will be only four million. It’s not a big problem.”
I hurriedly said: "There are so many schools, and there are other expenses. It's better to spend less money. Who knows what kind of expenses will be needed later? For example, it's hard to say what kind of expressions are needed for individual leaders.
ah."
Director Leng nodded and said: "Yes. There is also the Ministry of Education... things are like this now. Where the top leaders are easy to talk to, it is often the people below who are troublesome. The kid is so difficult!"
The old director suddenly said: "We'd better wait. It's best to wait until there is news from Peking University. If we report the cooperation plan with Tsinghua University first, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction from Peking University. This is also
It may very well cause the Ministry of Education to make a difficult decision, because the Ministry of Education will definitely have to consider all aspects of the issue."
Director Leng nodded and said: "Okay, let's wait. But Xiao Feng, you have to call your unit immediately today and ask someone in the office to send your official seal to Beijing immediately. We will prepare the text of the report as soon as possible.
, you will personally deliver it to Principal Teng tomorrow."
I nodded.
"I will make my own arrangements tomorrow, please leave me alone." Director Leng said.
I immediately agreed. He is the leader. Since he has given such orders, what else can we say?
After returning to the hotel, I started to discuss the content of the application report with the old director and Director Liang. When it was time to eat, I decided to eat at the hotel where we were staying. Although it was a bit expensive, it was convenient. So I
I called Director Leng, but he told me that he had already left the hotel and had other arrangements for the evening, and asked us to leave him alone. I don’t know why, but I once again remembered what I had vaguely seen.
When the thing about avoiding traps came up, I immediately felt weird.
But then I smiled bitterly in my heart: You think it's normal for you to do something like that, but is it weird for him to do it?
In fact, many things are like this. It is understandable for you to do it yourself, but once others do it, you think it is not appropriate. This is especially true for those who are leaders. In other words, many of us who are leaders
People always feel that they can make certain mistakes, but they will never tolerate their subordinates doing such things. For example, style issues, bribery issues, etc.
So I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, because I found that I had also contracted this problem without knowing it.
Later, the three of us had something to eat in the hotel restaurant, but I still had a few glasses of wine with the old director.
While eating, I suddenly thought of a question. I said to the old director: "Judging from today's situation, this Principal Teng should be an innovative person, so I think we can send our draft first."
It's much better to go to his mailbox than to go back and forth to him, and besides, people may not have that much time to receive us."
The old director pondered and did not speak for a while, but Director Liang thought my opinion was very good. He said: "I also think this is the best. What era are we in now? Although email has only just begun to take off, I believe
Principal Teng must be using it already."
I smiled and said, "Wait a minute. Didn't he give us his business card today? I'll find out when I take it out and take a look."
The old director looked at me doubtfully.
I immediately took out Principal Teng's business card and immediately laughed, "Look, there is his email address under his name card. Director Liang, could you please send our manuscript to his email address tonight?"
.In order to ensure that he can see it, you should send him a text message."
Director Liang couldn't help but nod.
Then I said to the old director: "What are you going to do tomorrow?"
He said: "I want to go to the country to recruit people. I will go to find out their attitude first. Xiao Feng, my idea is to visit old friends in my own name first, and we will discuss it after we have their preliminary opinions."
Officially invite them out for a meal."
I immediately understood that what he meant was not to let me come forward yet. Because I was the newly appointed director of the Provincial Admissions Office. If I went directly like this, there would be no room for turning back once I was rejected by the other party. I
He nodded and said, "Old director, let's let Director Liang go with you. If you want to treat someone privately, he can arrange it for you."
Director Liang is his former subordinate, so it doesn't matter if he follows. I thought to myself.
The old director nodded and said, "Okay, that's it."
I immediately laughed, "Haha! Then I will be free tomorrow. I'm sorry, old director."
He glared at me and joked with me: "Then you will drink with me."
The old director's drinking habit is slow. He is not used to drinking in big cups like we usually do when drinking. But I found that it is easy to get drunk when drinking slowly like this. Director Liang also sends an email to Principal Teng in the evening.
We were talking about things, so I didn’t let him drink more. Except for Director Liang, who drank about two taels of the bottle of liquor we asked for, the rest was shared equally between the old director and me. After finishing the bottle, I
I suddenly felt drunk.
The old director smiled and asked me: "Would you like another bottle?"
I waved my hand hurriedly and said: "Old director, you can pretend to be half a catty again, I can't do it anymore. I can't stand your habit of drinking slowly."
He laughed, "Drinking wine should be savored slowly. The way you drink is simply a waste of wine."
Director Liang said with a smile: "It is easy to get drunk when drinking slow wine. It is said that this is because drinking slow wine will inhale more volatile alcohol. Think about it, how high is the concentration of the alcohol that volatilizes? By the way, before
A few years ago, a winery somewhere held an event. The event stipulated that as long as a person can carry a large TV forward for 100 meters after drinking a pound of liquor, the TV will belong to him.
There are a lot of people who drink a lot, right? But the strange thing is that as a result, very few people were able to carry the TV a hundred meters away."
I asked in surprise: "Why is this?"
Director Liang said with a smile: "That's because the manufacturer has another rule, which is that the bottle of wine must be consumed within an hour. You can only drink a small cup at a time. Of course, it cannot exceed one hour."
.This is because of slow drinking.”
I immediately laughed and said, "Old Director, if you participate in this competition, you will definitely win."
The old director smiled and said: "I can't drink a pound of wine, and I will be drunk long ago. But this manufacturer is very weird, because they have set up a lot of unknown things in a seemingly simple thing.
The difficulty. Xiao Feng, things went so smoothly today. I’m worried that there might be some problems behind this matter that we don’t know about yet.”
I looked at him, "What do you mean?"
He said: "You'd better report this matter to Governor He and listen to her opinion before talking. Don't rush to send Xiaoliang's stuff to others, lest things get the approval of the leader and make a joke.
"
I thought to myself: Yes, the most important thing about this matter is that we must get the consent of the leader in charge. Of course, I have the responsibility to convince her on this matter.
So the old director stopped urging me to drink, and started eating too.
After returning to the room, I first called Secretary Xiao He. I briefly told her what happened after we arrived in Beijing. After listening to it, she said to me: "Director Feng, Governor He has a reception tonight.
, let’s do this, I’ll call you when I see she’s free later, and you can report to her directly. Of course, I will tell her the general situation here.”
I thanked her profusely. Then I put the phone on the bedside table and went into the bathroom to take a shower. I didn't dare to close the bathroom door because I was afraid of delaying answering the phone.
As soon as I got inside and my body was wet with water, I suddenly heard the phone ringing, so I hurriedly ran out naked, looked at it, and found that it was a local landline number in Beijing. I didn't
I dare to neglect, because I am worried that this call is from Peking University or Tsinghua University. (To be continued)
