Zhang Zhong looked at Yang Xiao, who was smiling all over his face, and was a little confused.
The fact that the representative sent by the Wells Group to discuss sponsorship was Yang Xiao has already surprised Zhang Zhong. Is this guy really so idle and playing role-playing everywhere every day?
First, he was a receptionist at "Literary News", then he was a lecturer at Columbia University's School of East Asia, and now he came to discuss sponsorship on behalf of the Wells Group.
Moreover, as soon as the two parties sat down and the matter had not even begun to be discussed, he put forward his request - hoping to get a teaching position at Shizhong College.
Because Zhang Zhong did not introduce Yang Xiao's origins in detail, Wen Han was not sure about this young man's background. Although he could tell that he was not an ordinary employee, he did not expect that Yang Xiao was the young boss of Wells Group.
He was even more surprised than Zhang Zhong when he heard Yang Xiao proposed to teach in the school.
"Mr. Yang, are what you just said a prerequisite for your company to sponsor the middle school?" Zhang Chong asked with a smile.
Yang Xiao nodded, "You can say it this way, Teacher Zhang, I am a straight-tempered person and don't like beating around the bush. As long as you agree to my request, the sponsorship matter will be easy to discuss."
"In that case, let me be direct. Mr. Yang, I would like to ask, when you went to Columbia University to be a lecturer, did you get in like this?" Zhang Zhong smiled, but what he said was very direct.
Yang Xiao shook his head, "Please don't misunderstand me, I didn't go through the back door when I went to Columbia University."
Zhang Zhong glanced at Yang Xiao and did not deliberately judge whether this guy was telling the truth or a lie. He just smiled and said, "If you really want to teach at Shizhong College, you can send your resume to the college. The college now also
We are recruiting people. I think there should be no problem if lecturers from Columbia University come to teach in our college."
Yang Xiao thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's okay. How about I go back and make a resume and then come back?"
Zhang Zhong waved his hands and said, "No need to go to such trouble."
He looked at Wen Han again and said, "Teacher Wen, I remember that you have a general elective class on "History of Oriental Literature" tonight. Is it convenient for you to give it up?"
"History of Oriental Literature" is the only general elective course offered by Shizhong College. The class time is also quite special, it is Sunday evening.
Wen Han nodded and said, "Of course."
General elective courses are different from compulsory courses. The requirements are relatively low. It’s not a big deal to take one.
With Wen Han's consent, Zhang Zhong said to Yang Xiao, "How about we give it to the students tonight?"
Yang Xiao did not refuse, nodded and said, "Okay."
After the lecture was settled, Yang Xiao went back first.
Zhang Zhong originally wanted to keep him at school for meals, but Yang Xiao said that the clothes he was wearing were not suitable for lectures and wanted to go back and change.
Regarding Yang Xiao's statement, Zhang Zhong agreed. His orange-red Versace two-button suit and the Patek Philippe watch worth nearly 3 million Chinese coins on his wrist were indeed not suitable for giving lectures on the podium.
I'm afraid the lights in the classroom may not be as bright as his.
After seeing Yang Xiao off, Wen Han asked Zhang Zhong with a puzzled face, "Have you known this Mr. Yang before?"
Zhang Dian nodded and said, "I've met him twice. He is the young boss of the Wells Group. He was previously a university lecturer at Columbia University's School of East Asia."
Wen Han was surprised and said, "Shaodong's family? Then why did he come to teach in our school?"
"I don't know about that. It's hard to figure out the psychology of the rich second generation."
"What about tonight's lecture?"
"No need for special treatment, just treat him as an ordinary person and come to apply for the job. He is not the kind of ignorant second-generation ancestor, so he should be able to handle it. You will notify a few teachers from the college to come over for an extra class in a while, and they will serve as interviewers. Listen
As soon as you listen to Yang Xiao's class, tell them that someone is coming to apply for a job. You don't need to reveal Yang Xiao's identity to them. Then you won't give any grades. Leave Yang Xiao to other teachers." Zhang Zhong said to Wen Han.
.
"What about you, dean? Are you coming over to attend classes in the evening?"
Zhang Zhong shook his head and said, "I won't come. Just let me know when you have the results."
…
After leaving the college, Zhang Zhong did not go home directly, but went to Lin Lin's place.
Song Xiang was meeting Jiangyang from Yanjing today. Lin Lin picked him up at the airport. He is now at Song Xiang and Lin Lin's company.
If Song Xiang hadn't come back today, Zhang Zhong would have wanted to see Yang Xiao's performance.
Last time when we were at the Zhiwang Exhibition Hall, Yang Xiao casually said a few words of "Encouraging Learning", which greatly improved his impression in Zhang Zhong's mind. That's why Zhang Zhong told Wen Han that Yang Xiao was not an ignorant second-generation ancestor.
Just treat it normally.
As for whether Yang Xiao can pass the application, Zhang Zhong is not too worried. If Yang Xiao is telling the truth and it is his true ability that he joined Columbia University's East Asia College to teach without going through the back door, then he can definitely pass the test of the teachers in the college.
…
"I thought you were going to let us go, but you didn't come until now."
Seeing Zhang Zhong arriving late, Lin Lin couldn't help but complain.
Song Xiang smiled and said, "It's not your fault. I told you a few days ago that I was coming to Jiangyang. Who knew you never told Chongzi."
Lin Lin rolled his eyes, "Brother, how do I know you contacted me alone? I thought you told him. Why, the boss has become stingy after being here for a long time, and he can't bear to pay for the phone call?
"
Zhang Zhong saw them bickering and had no intention of starting a fight. Instead, he started to argue, "Why don't you go out and have a fight? I'll go in and sit down first."
"Fight? If I give this guy one hand or one foot, he is no match for me." Lin Lin has absolute confidence in force. He has always felt that he is the most powerful among the three.
Song Xiang's fighting ability was low, but he didn't give in. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let's practice together. Let's see if I can hit your knees when I jump!"
"Pfft——"
Zhang Zhong and Lin Lin laughed at Song Xiang's words at the same time. Song Xiang was not tall and a little fat. Zhang Zhong and Lin Lin did not make fun of him, but he himself had a spirit of self-deprecation.
Just make fun of yourself when you have nothing to do. After all these years, this has not changed.
While chatting and joking, the three of them walked towards the leisure area of Lin Lin Company.
Compared with before, the rest area of Lin Lin's company is more upscale. I heard from Lin Lin that their company's rest area also has commercial services. Employees have a fixed amount to spend here every month, ranging from a few hundred to a few dollars.
thousand.
"It's so sad, it's so sad. I also want to give my company's employees such benefits, but my strength doesn't allow it." Song Xiang shook his head and said.
Lin Lin said with a smile, "Actually, this doesn't cost much. Although I will give employees some quota every month, the consumption here is higher than outside. Many employees will pay for it themselves after their quota is exhausted.
If I continue to consume, I won’t have to pay much for this trip, and the main thing is just a place to go.”
