Not long after Zhang Zhong left Jiangyang University, LeBlanc's car drove into the school.
The car arrived directly below the Government Affairs Building, where Liu Hong and Wang Xi met the guests downstairs.
"Principal Liu, hello, I am LeBlanc."
The first words of the leader of Lide made Liu Hong and Wang Xi stunned at the same time. They did not expect that she could speak Chinese.
"Hello, hello, I am principal Liu Hong, and this is vice principal Wang Xi." Liu Hong gently shook LeBlanc's hand and said with a smile.
LeBlanc also smiled. It took her a long time to practice the sentence just now, but she couldn't say it anymore.
Fortunately, the accompanying translator came over in time and translated Liu Hong's words with LeBlanc.
Then LeBlanc nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, Mr. Wang, I'm still learning Chinese, so I'm afraid I won't be able to communicate with you in Chinese."
Liu Hong and Wang Xi's English proficiency is average, but LeBlanc's pronunciation is smooth and not fast, so they can probably understand it.
"Miss LeBlanc's pronunciation just now has been very standard. I think in time she will be able to speak Chinese very well. Downstairs is not the place to talk. Please come up with me."
The group went to Liu Hong's office, where Liu Hong and Wang Xi were busy making tea for LeBlanc and the others.
After everyone had a cup of tea, Liu Hong said, "I wonder what Miss LeBlanc is here for this time?"
"That's it, Principal Liu. Our group is planning to develop a partner among universities in China. Your school has a long history, strong strength, and its comprehensive strength is second to none in Nanhuai Province, so you are our first choice. Don't you know that we, Li De
Does the group have this honor?"
After listening to the translation, Liu Hong was a little surprised. Their Jiangyang University was indeed pretty good, but it felt ironic to say that it had a long history and strong strength. After all, their school's comprehensive strength was not ranked high in the country.
Reed Group is well-known far and wide. It is said that it should find partners in universities, which should be schools at the level of Yenching University and Jinling University.
It’s really incredible to consider Jiangyang University as your first choice.
"I wonder what kind of cooperation Ms. LeBlanc wants to have with our school?" Liu Hong asked, because he really couldn't figure out what cooperation Reed Group could do with their school.
"I am very interested in your school's library science and literature majors. I hope to use your school as a talent training base for our group. In addition to targeted scholarships, we will donate at least 200,000 books to your school
.”
After listening to LeBlanc's words, Liu Hong felt like he was dreaming. No matter how he looked at it, this matter would be of great benefit to the school without any harm.
But here's the problem. This seems to be good for their school, but not good for Reed Group.
Talent training base?
If Reed Group wants to recruit, students from major schools across the country will have to squeeze their heads in to get in. Is there any need to go to a second-rate university like theirs for some orientation training?
Liu Hong knew that there is no free lunch in the world, so he calmly asked, "Besides, does your company have any other requirements?"
What he asked was already very direct.
LeBlanc smiled sweetly, "I heard that pz teaches in your school?"
pz?
Liu Hong looked at Wang Xi next to him, a little confused.
Wang Xi said, "That's Zhang Zhong, foreigners are used to calling him pz."
Liu Hong suddenly realized that the other party was coming for Zhang Zhong, but at the same time he was relieved. If he was coming for Zhang Zhong, then it would make sense.
He nodded and said, "Yes, Jiangyang University is Zhang Zhong's alma mater, and he is also teaching at Jiangyang University now... But he is just a guest, occasionally coming to give a public class."
Regarding the matter of Union College, he did not tell LeBlanc immediately.
"Well, our group has always wanted to hold a personal literary exhibition for Zhang Zhong. It is free." LeBlanc said.
"Oh? This is a good thing. Zhang Zhong should agree." Liu Hong said. The implication is that if you want to organize an exhibition for Zhang Zhong for free, you don't need to go through all these twists and turns, just go to Zhang Zhong directly.
LeBlanc also understood the meaning of Liu Hong's words, and said truthfully, "We contacted Zhang Zhong before, but he didn't seem very interested."
"So you are just trying to save the country by going all out and using our school as a breakthrough point?"
"Principal Liu, you are right."
"But Zhang Zhong is just a guest in our school. We have no way to influence his will. To put it bluntly, it's too late for us to worship him as a Buddha, so how can we ask him to do this or that? Miss LeBlanc
, I completely understand your good intentions, but I’m afraid I can’t help you with this matter.”
LeBlanc waved her hand and said, "Principal Liu, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to let you order pz. What I meant was whether you could organize a party in the name of the school so that we could have a face-to-face communication with pz."
Liu Hong pondered and tapped his fingers on the table.
Reed Group's sponsorship and cooperation plans were very tempting to him, but he also knew that Zhang Zhong was not something he could control. If he wanted to eat this pie that fell from the sky, he had to consider his ability.
I don’t have such a good mouth.
After thinking for a long time, Liu Hong suddenly said, "Miss LeBlanc, I have an idea that should be beneficial to your cooperation."
LeBlanc's eyes were filled with joy, "Principal Liu, please tell me, if you can help me... us, I will be very grateful."
Seeing LeBlanc's reaction, Liu Hongxin asked if the Western beauty in front of her had thoughts about Zhang Zhong. Why did her eyes light up like a cat seeing a mouse when she mentioned Zhang Zhong.
"Actually, it's not something that can't be said. The news will be announced in the next two days. Our school and Jinling University have jointly established a liberal arts college, and Zhang Chonglai will be the dean of this liberal arts college. The college will officially start this semester.
We can organize a sponsorship recruitment meeting through the school, and Zhang Zhong will definitely be there. I think Zhang Zhong will not refuse as long as it is good for the students. We are all teachers, so this feeling is understandable.
"
Listening to the translation, the smile on LeBlanc's face grew wider and wider. Finally, she clapped her hands and said, "Thank you, Principal Liu, for the information. I'm sorry to bother Principal Liu with this sponsorship recruitment meeting."
"You're welcome. These are all things that are good for students. As teachers, we are naturally happy to see them. But this book..."
"Oh, don't worry about this. Regardless of whether PZ agrees or not, the books and cooperation we agreed on before have been settled and will not change."
