Chapter five hundred and fifty seventh uneasy Christmas
It’s Christmas again. Taking advantage of this rare holiday, Li Jianhui has put down all social activities and plans to spend time at home quietly with his family.
But people with good intentions are unwilling to let it go as they wish, because this year's large-scale introduction of foreign students into universities in Xiangjiang also laid the foundation for this incident.
Especially the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Chinese-funded private universities. Except for a few courses that are taught in English, most of the courses are taught in Cantonese and the textbooks are all in Chinese characters. Therefore, they are also very popular with students from the north. Some are even taught in Cantonese.
Government-sponsored overseas students.
And this happened to be the main force in this incident. Whether they took the initiative or were incited, a massive demonstration made the situation that had calmed down once again stirred up undercurrents, and Li Jianhui and others were trapped in it.
in passivity.
In the afternoon of that day, senior school officials including Chinese University, Xinjian University, Xiangjiang Communication University, etc. were notified to go to the police station to pick up people. At the same time, Brian personally notified the principals of major middle schools and universities as well as the directors behind the schools to convene a special meeting.
During the meeting, Brian's face was quite serious, even with a hint of anger.
“Our government allows everyone to establish private colleges and universities in order to cultivate more talents that are beneficial to the economic development of Hong Kong. It is even quite tolerant in teaching, allowing different models to be implemented. In addition to special language subjects, it can teach in English as well as
Can teach in Cantonese.
But the events that happened today subverted my imagination. It seems that we have been too indulgent to everyone, so that the school should have been a place to teach students knowledge and cultivate technical talents, but now it has become a place to accommodate political opposition to us.
Especially our private universities, such as Xinjian University, Xiangjiang University of Communication, and Xiangjiang University of Finance and Economics. 70% of the participants this time are students from these three universities, and even one of the leaders is from Xinjian University.
Vice President of the Student Union.
As the main founder of these three universities, I don’t know if Mr. Li Jianhui needs to give me an explanation as to why such a big thing happened. Mr. Li did not stop it and did not inform us. Or maybe Mr. Li intended to use me as a person to oppose us.
."
Those present knew very well that except for a public Chinese university, the main problem this time was with the universities under Li Jianhui. After all, other private universities were still under construction, and only a few universities under the Xinjian Education Group had been put into use.
At this time, Li Jianhui did not think about the negligence of the senior officials of Xinjian Education Group, several universities, or even the confidentiality office and the political and economic research office. He needed to deal with Brian in front of him first.
It can be said that this time has completely angered Brian. If it goes wrong, several universities will probably close down directly, which will be a big blow to him and the Donghua Association.
"I have always opposed interference in the political system, and it is absolutely impossible for me to support or condone these students' participation in activities that are inconsistent with themselves.
When Xinjian University started school, I specifically emphasized that the task and responsibility of college students is to work hard to learn professional knowledge, and they are strictly prohibited from participating in any political activities during college.
What happened this morning was personally very unexpected to me. Before this, I had not received any information or reports about this incident.
However, I believe that most of the students participating today are blind followers and those who are being encouraged. All they need is some education.
As for how to deal with the leader, that is Mr. Brian's business. Seven people, including the vice chairman of the Student Union of Xinjian University, Xinjian University, Xiangjiang Communication University, Xiangjiang University of Finance and Economics, and Xiangjiang College of Architectural Engineering have expelled their student status.
Several of them no longer have any relationship with several of our universities."
Seeing that Li Jianhui had already shown his attitude, Brian was not easy to force him, and he knew that this time he could not blame Li Jianhui. The other party obviously had a sophisticated organization for this parade, otherwise he would not have known about it after it happened.
You must know that he has the intelligence support of MI6. If it were just a few student organizations, I am afraid that the news would have been spread long ago, and it would not be known until after it actually happened.
He also understood that this demonstration was obviously in response to the negotiations between the two sides. The outside world did not know yet. Secretly, the two sides were already having a fierce confrontation. The latest round of negotiations this month did not produce very good results. The other party was obviously
It is hoped that public opinion will be used to take the initiative in negotiations.
However, Bryan still put forward new requirements for these private universities. The government will arrange for people to serve as deputy superintendents at each school, who will be mainly responsible for the political and ideological management of the school to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
This has to do with the current school system. Because it follows the Commonwealth teaching system, there is a position of school supervisor, which is higher than the principal. He presides over school executive meetings, development planning, and student graduation ceremonies. Public universities often have a supervisor.
The head of the local government or a senior executive.
For example, the Chancellor of Hong Kong University has always been the Governor-General over the years. The current Chancellor is Brian. The Chinese University of Hong Kong is served by the Chief Executive, Mr. Xoxos. Heung Kong Polytechnic, Heung Kong City and Heung Kong Technology are also appointed respectively.
They are the Financial Secretary, the Secretary for Justice, and the Commissioner of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
As for several private universities under Li Jianhui, Li Jianhui himself is the proctor of Xinjian University, Lei Juekun is the proctor of Xiangjiang University of Communication, Zhang Guangwen is the proctor of Xiangjiang Institute of Architecture, Feng Jingyao is the proctor of Xiangjiang University of Finance and Economics, and Liu Xiaoyan is the proctor of Xiangjiang Aviation University.
.
Several universities have not established the position of deputy chancellor, and Li Jianhui obviously does not want the Bryan administration to extend its hands to the universities under the Tung Wah Association.
Therefore, he said: "The purpose of establishing several universities is to cultivate technical elites. We do not want students to participate in the political system. The schools do not promote the political system, let alone induce students' ideas.
Regarding the appointment of a deputy superintendent, I don’t think it is necessary. In the future, our school will strengthen its own management so that students can focus on their studies and will not let such incidents happen again.”
Seeing that Li Jianhui did not agree, Brian was not easy to force. He had no plan to fall out with Li Jianhui, and the local government also instructed him to actively win over Li Jianhui and others.
Moreover, this incident has both advantages and disadvantages for them. The other party thought that this would put pressure on them, but little did they know that it would also arouse resentment from Li Jianhui and others.
Here, Li Jianhui and others least want the situation to be turbulent. After that time in August, Li Jianhui and others finally stabilized the situation. Now that something like this has happened again, it is strange that these people have no ideas in their hearts.
Moreover, these people can oppose them today and organize demonstrations against Li Jianhui and other capitalists tomorrow. This will inevitably increase the inner worries of Li Jianhui and others.
At the end of the meeting, Brian said: "We are all people who love education. I also hope that everyone will focus on education, so that students can truly learn scientific knowledge instead of using some ideas.
Brainwash students.
We need a stable development environment. Only in this way will the economic development here be better and the city will be more prosperous.
Such an incident is inevitable, and although I am extremely reluctant to see bloodshed, if some forces want to force us, we cannot be blamed."
