Chapter 858 Anping Third Primary School (Two in One)

Originally, Zhang Chong was planning to go there with Chen Qing, but when the family members heard that they were going to Bashu, they all clamored to follow.

On the one hand, they also want to visit Hope Primary School, on the other hand, the food in Bashu is quite memorable.

Speaking of which, Pengpeng had never been to the school named after Pengpeng, but they didn't go to that school this time. Zhang Zhong wanted to take her to see Pengpeng when she was older.

Of the three schools they were going to go to first, two were in GY City and one was in Mianyang.

Mianyang is relatively close to the provincial capital, while GY City is relatively remote, close to Ganshan and on the border of Bashu Province.

When Zhang Zhong and his party arrived in Wuping, Mianyang, the local senior county officials and county magistrates came to greet them, and they even brought reporters with them.

This gave Zhang Zhong a headache. Out of the five schools, they notified three of them, but they did not notify the outside media and government agencies, but only notified the principals of these three schools.

Chen Qing laughed beside him, "This is something that could have been expected a long time ago, boss, please rest assured."

"It was expected, but seeing these reporters still gave me a headache." Zhang Zhong looked at the long banner hanging at the intersection again.

The banner reads: Welcome Mr. Zhang Zhong to come to this county to guide the education work.

This is even more chaotic. Zhang Zhong came here to take a look in his personal capacity, and he did not work in the education system. The banner said that it is more suitable to welcome the leaders of the Education Bureau.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, hello, on behalf of the folks in Wuping, I welcome you as a guest." Cai Xianming, a senior county official, said excitedly, holding Zhang Zhong's hand.

Cai Xianming, who is about 50 or [-] years old, is not tall, wears a pair of glasses, his eyes narrow when he smiles, and his body is less bureaucratic, more like a teacher.

The county magistrate Liu He standing next to him was much younger, at most 34 or [-] years old, the same age as Zhang Zhong.

Wuping County is considered a relatively good county in Bashu. It is not easy for the county magistrate Liu to be the magistrate of such a county at such an age.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, I'm Liuhe, and I'm also your fan. This time I heard that you came to Wuping, I was so happy that I didn't fall asleep for several nights."

Sure enough, when Liu He opened his mouth, it was like a Beijing movie, probably a son of an official who went to the local area to experience.

"County Liu is the local leader. He manages Wuping together with Secretary Cai. If I delay my work because I didn't sleep well, it will be my fault." Zhang Zhong laughed.

After Zhang Zhong met with Wuping's first and second leaders, Wu Donglai, the principal of the No. [-] Primary School in Anping Town they were going to visit this time, walked up with a smile.

Zhang Zhong was a little surprised when he saw Wu Donglai, because he had read the school's information and Wu Donglai's photos before coming.

According to the information, Wu Donglai is only 37 years old, and the photos look nothing special except black spots.

But now that Wu Donglai was standing in front of Zhang Zhong, Zhang Zhong had no way to associate him with the 37-year-old middle-aged man.

too old.

Wu Donglai was originally not tall, estimated to be in his early 1.7 meters, and when he walked, he still hooked his waist and was a bit shorter.

It seems that his eyesight is not very good either, and the lenses of his glasses are almost as thick as a palm.There is a large bald spot on the top of my head, I don't know if it was combed on purpose or the hair is messed up. The hair on the left side is biased to the right, covering the Mediterranean Sea in the middle sparsely, and the white scalp is looming.

If it is said that he is the same age as Zhang Xingjun, Zhang Zhong will believe it, and in terms of mental state, he is not as good as Zhang Xingjun.

"Hello, Teacher Zhang Zhong. I have been looking forward to meeting you and thank you for your contribution to our No. [-] Primary School. Today I finally have this opportunity. The children are waiting for you at the school."

Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "I think the children must have complained about my arrival. After all, today is Saturday. It was a day to rest at home, but I was dragged into school because of me."

"You are joking, the children are very happy to hear that you are coming. Although we are in elementary school, many of the senior students are fans of your books and have always regarded you as an idol."

"Oh? What books do they usually read?" Zhang Zhong asked with interest.

"They prefer to watch your "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea", "Harry Potter", "Chunyu Fen's Adventures"..."

Zhang Zhong walked towards the third primary school while chatting with them.

This Hope Primary School was not built out of thin air, but already existed.

The original name seemed to be Anping Nanfang Primary School, but the school building was dilapidated for too long, so Zhang Zhong and his company chose this school to build a new school building for them, which was completed last year.

Originally, Zhang Zhonglai was asked to name the school, but Zhang Zhong handed over the matter to the school. In the end, the school leaders discussed with the town government and changed the name to Anping No. [-] Primary School.

It is said to be Anping No. [-] Primary School, but it is still some distance away from the town center, and it has already reached the subordinate village.

When Zhang Zhong and the others arrived at the school gate, a group of children stood at the door and looked towards Zhang Zhong and the others curiously, but they didn't dare to come up.

Fortunately for Zhang Chong, the school did not arrange for students to hold a welcome ceremony for him.

He was most afraid of the kind of "welcome welcome warm welcome" scene.

"Children are relatively shy, don't take offense." Principal Wu Donglai said next to Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong waved his hand, "My child, it's all like this, so why should I be surprised?"

"Our old school building is on the left, and it has been demolished now." Wu Donglai pointed to the cement square on the west side of the school and said, "If you came earlier, you might still see the old school building. Now there is a new one. After the school building, both the students and the teachers are very angry. Look at the sign next to the gate, which says our school is funded by you. I will let the students see that sign from time to time, so that they don’t forget For your kindness, never forget the well digger when drinking water, I just want the students to be grateful people from an early age."

Zhang nodded emphatically and did not comment.Wu Donglai seems to be quite a restrained person, but he is a very sophisticated person from what he has said along the way, and his flattering skills are also very mellow, not blunt.

As for the quality of the building, he is not engaged in construction, so he can only take a rough look at the quality of the project, and it is impossible to go to the front and shoot brick by brick.

When he got to the door, Cai Xianming coughed lightly, Wu Dong came to understand, and said to Zhang Chong, "Look, you finally came here, shall we take a photo at the door?"

Zhang Zhong glanced at the hungry cameras of the reporters and government workers around him, and did not refuse. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's take a picture as a souvenir. Let's stand at the door and let them stay away. The school and the kids are also filmed."

"Do you want the children to stand in line?"

"No, this is fine." Zhang Zhong shook his head.

In fact, there is no need to deliberately ask the children to line up. When they see Zhang Zhong and the others want to take pictures, the children will take the initiative to lean towards Zhang Zhong and the others.

There were also children on the second and third floors who kept waving at the reporters taking pictures, and the scene was very lively.

Children in rural areas rarely see such scenes, and the most senior officials many children have seen may be senior village officials.

After the photo was taken, under Wu Donglai's leadership, Zhang Chong and his party entered the school.

The school building is very simple. The main teaching building has three floors in total, and there are about six or seven rooms on the first floor, which is a symmetrical structure from east to west.

The most conspicuous thing in the yard is the flag-raising platform. Not far from the flag-raising platform is a cement basketball court. It seems that the utilization rate is quite high. It has not been long since the new construction, and many marks have been left on the backboard.

In addition to basketball, there are four table tennis tables, which are all the sports facilities in the school.

Ideally, a school would preferably have football fields, badminton courts, etc., but due to various reasons, it is simply impossible to build these.

Especially the football field, not only occupies a large area, but even a smaller football field will cost several million, which is more expensive than the teaching building.

After viewing the school compound, they went up to the second floor.

"When you go up the stairs and turn left, it's our school's library."

Zhang nodded emphatically. He is more interested in the school library, and this trip is mainly to see the situation of reading in local primary schools.

At that time, he not only funded the construction of the building, but also sent a lot of books. He didn't want his act of sending books to become as stupid as the behavior of the leader Wang Yi said.

The school library is not big, half the size of an ordinary classroom, with only three rows of bookshelves inside.

I roughly glanced at the books on the bookshelf, and it was quite reasonable. There were famous works at home and abroad, and there were also many story books suitable for children to read.

"How does your library work? How do children borrow books?"

"Our library borrows books with the library card, that's what it is." A young man handed Zhang Zhong a small green book.

Zhang Zhong took the library card and looked at the young man, "Who is this?"

Wu Donglai introduced with a smile, "This is Teacher Li Qiuyun. He graduated from our provincial normal university. He is now teaching Chinese at the school and concurrently serving as the administrator of the library."

"Teaching classes and managing the library, can you take care of it?"

"It doesn't matter. Our library is not open every day. It is only open from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] noon on January [-]th. Students come here at this time to borrow books."

Zhang nodded his head to express his understanding. There are not many students in the school, and the work of borrowing and returning books should not be too busy. Three days a week, two hours a day should be enough.

"Father, is this small book a library card?" Peng Peng looked at the library card in Zhang Zhong's hand and asked curiously.

Zhang Chong handed her the library card with a smile, and said, "How about it, haven't you seen it? Dad used this kind of library card when he went to school when he was a child. Every time he borrowed a book, the teacher would stamp it on the small book. chapter."

Pengpeng said in surprise, "That's amazing. If our school also uses this kind of small books, I will definitely borrow books."

Their school also has a library, but borrowing books is not based on this small book, but a unified campus card.

Hu Huifang smiled, "Your dad's study room has more books than your school's library. What books do you want to borrow?"

"It's fun, the more seals there are on the little book, the more powerful it is." Peng Peng smiled, holding the little book in her hand as if she couldn't put it down.

Wu Donglai was quite capable of doing things. Seeing that Pengpeng liked library cards very much, he asked with a smile, "Little friend, do you want to get a library card too?"

Pengpeng looked up at Wu Donglai, "Is it okay?"

"Of course." Wu Donglai smiled, then turned to look at Li Qiuyun, "Ms. Li, can I get a library card now?"

Li Qiuyun immediately said, "Of course, I can just register."

In fact, there is no need to register at all. After all, Peng Peng will not borrow books here in the future. Li Qiuyun only needs to give Peng Peng a new blank library card, and then write Peng Peng's name on it.

The whole process was very fast. Pengpeng got the library card with his name on it and showed it to his father and grandparents, "I also have a small book."

"The library card is a very important thing, you must take good care of it," Zhang Zhong said.

"I know, hee hee, I'll put it in my little magic box after I go back and show it to Liu Minya."

Hearing Pengpeng's words, Zhang Zhong and Xu Yuhan both laughed. Sure enough, this girl can't forget to show off to her little girlfriends wherever she goes.

Touching his daughter's head, Zhang Zhong asked Li Qiuyun again, "Ms. Li, how many library cards have you issued in total?"

Speaking of this, Li Qiuyun's expression was a little unnatural, and he looked at Wu Donglai next to him.

"It's like this. Because the library has not been opened for a long time, and in order to make students love books more, a deposit of [-] yuan is required for the library card. Of course, the [-] yuan deposit will wait until the students cancel the library card. It will be returned to them. Not too many people have come to apply for library cards, but this situation will improve soon." Wu Donglai explained.

Hearing Wu Donglai's explanation, Zhang Chong smiled and said, "I'll ask if it's okay, just tell me how many copies have been sent out."

Li Qiuyun looked at Wu Donglai again, who nodded before he said, "A total of [-] copies have been sent out, plus the one just given to your daughter."

Eighteen books, Zhang Zhong frowned, "How many students are there in the school?"

"280 two students."

For 280 students, excluding Peng Peng, a total of [-] library cards were issued, that is to say, only [-] students out of [-] students got library cards.

This ratio is simply too low.

But Zhang Zhong was not angry, he understood the difficulty of grassroots education.

Although Wu Donglai's explanation was to excuse himself, it was not without reason.

Not long after the library opened, the library card required a deposit of ten yuan.

Although the deposit of ten yuan is not high, it will definitely prevent a group of people from applying for a library card.And the ten yuan deposit is not too much in Zhang Zhong's opinion, it can really make children love books more.

After thinking about it, Zhang Zhong asked Li Qiuyun again, "How often do children who have already obtained a library card borrow books?"

"There are quite a lot. I have all the records here. Do you want to have a look?"

Zhang nodded and said, "It's time to work."
