Early the next morning, Xia Zekai temporarily sent Yatou and Tongtong to his second brother's house downstairs, letting them play there while he went to the company.
This morning I am going to Jidong University of Science and Technology with Zhang Xu, Lu Huan, Huang Ying and others to meet and talk with Dean Liu of the School of Materials Engineering about the Jingtong Scholarship and sign it.
For Xia Zekai, this is really the first time for a big girl to get on a sedan chair.
He himself wanted to study hard at the beginning, and once aimed at Jidong University of Science and Technology. Unfortunately, time did not wait for us, and in the end he just went to the wrong door.
If you can't study well, you can rely on diligence to make up for it, and Xia Zekai is consistent.
"Everything is ready!" After arriving at the company, Xia Zekai just parked the car and saw Lu Hao, Zhang Xu, Huang Ying, Wang Yewei and others who were already waiting.
Wang Yewei said: "Boss, everything is ready."
"Okay, let's go over and meet with the other party this time to discuss the specific cooperation content, and then let the school draw up a list of outstanding students and choose a date to distribute this year's scholarships."
"You and Lao Lu are mainly responsible for the follow-up work." Xia Zekai said.
Lu Chen and Wang Yewei nodded almost at the same time and accepted the job.
Zhang Xu's job is to liaise with the outside world. He still has a lot of things to do. Contacting Jidong University of Science and Technology is far from the end.
He has no interest in doing specific work matters. Instead, he enjoys this kind of communication.
When I left, I drove Xia Zekai's GL8. After getting in the car, several people started chatting, talking about what they should do when they get to school later, and what they would talk to each other about.
Lu Chen said: "Boss, actually I really think you should tell those students about your struggle history."
"Screw you, I'll just rent a garage and work from day to night. How many of them do you think are willing to do this?" Xia Zekai said.
Hearing what Xia Zekai said, several people in the car laughed.
Zhang Xu also looked around and suddenly said: "Hey, oh, eldest brother, why didn't you come? Otherwise, let him tell the story of struggling with the boss."
"You little bastards, you just want to see my joke, right?" Xia Zekai laughed and scolded for a while.
The company is not too far away from Jidong University of Science and Technology. They are all developed in the west, and the straight-line distance is only about ten kilometers.
After arriving here, Zhang Xu called Liu Xuewang, dean of the School of Materials and Engineering.
He is a lean man, about 1.7 meters tall, not too tall, with a bit of baldness on his head, but he is very energetic. Even though he is over fifty, his eyes are still very bright.
Zhang Xu had contacted him when he came here before, and now he introduced himself to both parties.
Xia Zekai humbly took the initiative to shake hands with Liu Xuewang: "Dean Liu, I have always admired our school, and I finally took this opportunity to take a look today!"
"Mr. Xia is very interesting. I will accompany Mr. Xia to have a good look later." Liu Xuewang said.
The two went back and forth and chatted. Through chatting, Xia Zekai discovered that Liu Xuewang was not pedantic at all, and did not have a "bookish attitude". Instead, he was very good at communication.
Several people followed him to the dean's office. When a teacher saw them on the way, they all smiled and called "Dean Liu", and he greeted them with a smile. It was obvious that he was usually a good person.
Otherwise, these people passing by should be afraid of him and avoid him.
When they arrived at the office, someone made tea for them, and several people sat down. Lu Chen and the others sat next to Xia Zekai.
Liu Xuewang said: "Mr. Xia, I am very grateful for your company's concern for the students of our college."
"Dean Liu is so polite. The main reason is that our company is in the stage of rapid development and needs outstanding graduates like your school to supplement our management and technical teams," Xia Zekai said.
This statement was very clever, and he praised the school by the way. This also praised Liu Xuewang from the side.
Sure enough, he understood, and the smile on his face became more sincere.
"I agree in principle with your company's establishment of scholarships in our school. This is a good thing. It is a good link to strengthen cooperation between schools and enterprises, and it is also a way for students to get to know high-quality enterprises." Liu Xuewang said.
This is a fact. There are not many companies that actually set up scholarships.
After all, this is a long-term free investment, rather than setting it up this year and not giving it next year. In that case, the company's reputation will be ruined faster.
Xia Zekai said: "The development of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. has always been aimed at surpassing itself. In the next step, our company's products will be sold all over the country. At the same time, in order to further control costs, we will also consider adding new factories across the country.
, the development and repeated expansion of the scale of an enterprise are inseparable from the support of talents, so our enterprise is 120% determined to achieve in-depth cooperation with your school."
This is definitely not the end for Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. As the market develops and the stalls become wider and wider, they will inevitably consider adding new management teams and technical teams, purely from the aspect of social recruitment.
It is unrealistic to solve this problem, so we need to consider outstanding graduates joining this team to cultivate talents and also feed back to the enterprise.
Liu Xuewang was filled with emotion when he heard Xia Zekai talking about the plan for in-depth cooperation between "enterprises and schools" and the company's next investment in talent training.
This is one of the few bosses he has seen in Qicheng who can truly develop a "talent team", and he is also the youngest one.
In other words, Xia Zekai has a long-term vision and is not a short-sighted person.
"The world is dominated by young people now!" Liu Xuewang was filled with emotion.
The two chatted in the dean's office for a full hour. Lu Huan, Zhang Xu, Huang Ying, and Wang Yewei listened to the whole process and occasionally recorded important action plans.
At the end, Xia Zekai highlighted Lu Huan and Wang Yewei. He told Principal Liu Xuewang that the "Jingtong Scholarship" is mainly directly responsible for Lu Huan and Wang Yewei. It is scheduled for two periods each year, and the number of places is variable. The school will provide the best students.
List of students I would like to apply for, the scholarship amount is 5,000 yuan.
This amount is not low, equivalent to three months' salary of an ordinary factory worker today.
It is equivalent to the amount of money an ordinary family has to work hard to save for half a year to pay for their children’s tuition.
In other words, as long as you study well, if your family is not very wealthy, your tuition for the next year will be paid by Jingtong Development Co., Ltd.
In other words, Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. will pay you living expenses.
At this point, Liu Xuewang was very emotional.
He knew very well that several large local companies had set up corporate scholarships at the school, but most of them were worth two thousand yuan.
Only by comparison will you realize how big the difference is.
Liu Xuewang solemnly thanked Xia Zekai at the end. He said: "On behalf of those children, I would like to thank Mr. Xia and Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. for their help. Thank you!"
"Dean Liu, you are too polite. This is what I should do."
To develop and make a contribution to the best of my ability.”
"I very much support the education work of schools. Previously, our company donated 800,000 yuan to Taoyuan Middle School in Taoyuan Town to improve the learning environment of students, but I want to say that this is just the beginning."
At the critical moment, you have to make yourself clear. He continued: "Our company will spend at least 1.5 million yuan every year to support school education and scholarships for colleges and universities.
Distribution, this is a mid- to long-term action, and we hope that respected seniors like Dean Liu can supervise us at all times."
"Mr. Xia is really a great virtue!" Liu Xuewang sighed with emotion!
…
After talking about the business with Liu Xuewang, Liu Xuewang originally had other work arrangements, but he directly pushed it away. Knowing that Xia Zekai wanted to visit the school, he took Xia Zekai there himself.
Tell him about the layout of the campus, the allusions to the names of each teaching building, the investment in hardware facilities on the campus, etc.
The West Campus is a new campus that has just been put into use. Everything is new and looks pleasing to the eye.
It happened that the new class of college students had just enrolled and were undergoing military training on the playground not far away. Xia Zekai watched for a while and said: "They are so good. They are in the best era. Just work hard!"
"Mr. Xia thinks so too?" Liu Xuewang asked him.
Xia Zekai nodded: "I came here step by step..."
People like Lu Chen, Wang Yewei and others who are very familiar with Xia Zekai know that their boss has started bragging again, using his brilliant achievements to show off his cleverness.
Zhang Xu and Huang Ying didn't know much about Xia Zekai's character. Listening to his detailed description of his past struggles and his views on this era, they suddenly felt that their boss was so powerful and how could he know so much.
When Huang Ying finally left, she didn't meet a familiar teacher.
She said: "The school has not officially opened yet and most of the teachers are not here."
This is true, tomorrow is the official first day of school.
After they were done, they left directly.
Watching them walk away, Liu Xuewang thought about Xia Zekai's remarks about "deep cooperation between enterprises and schools." He considered it from the perspective of a scholar and felt that Xia Zekai's statement was correct and in line with the long-term development rules of enterprises.
It is also the greatest responsibility to students!
He has already begun to think about who will be mainly responsible for this next step.
…
"Boss, when do you think we will award the first scholarship for this year?" Lu Hao asked in the car.
Xia Zekai said: "Xiao Zhang needs to make a trip to contact the school about this matter."
"Okay, I will contact Dean Liu later to confirm the time." Zhang Xu agreed.
