Chapter 226: The suffering of adults is fine, but the suffering of children is a sin
A rich second-generation came to this remote mountainous area to teach and brought donations and items to the school. However, in Teacher Yang's mouth, he was regarded as having evil intentions. Is this something that Principal Tan and Wei Yang cannot understand?
What do they want?
Just because you can get some benefits by teaching for three years?
But if this is what they want, there is no need for them to come here. Can't they just find a better place closer to home?
"Teacher Yang, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't keep it in your heart. Even if you want to do it for the good of the children, you have to convince Principal Tan."
Lin Ye's words made Teacher Yang's expression become serious. He looked at Principal Tan and said seriously, "Principal, even if this incident had not happened today, I would have suggested that you send Teacher Lin away."
"Old Yang, it can't be that serious, is it just because those students copied the lyrics taught by Teacher Lin in your class? There's nothing wrong with students liking to sing. Nowadays, we emphasize all-round development, and the children are also interested. You just need to scold them a few times."
"Overall development is what is said about children in the city. For children here, moral and intellectual development is all that matters."
"Old Yang, what you said is not right."
Principal Tan glanced around and finally looked at Lin Ye and Wei Yang. Lin Ye waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, we won't say anything to the public. Teacher Yang, please continue."
"Yes, I don't deny that Teacher Lin has brought material help to our school. I also know that she buys toys for the students and sends some donations to children from poor families. But look at the videos she took. The children's clothes are dirty and she wears a different skirt almost every day. Are our children that bad?"
"Ahem, that's what Teacher Lin did to encourage kind-hearted people to show their love. As for Teacher Lin's dress, it's not against the rules. Teacher Lin is a city girl, and it's normal for her to love beauty when she's young."
"Then why does she do live streaming? I don't know much about this, but I know that giving gifts in the live streaming room is all about spending money. Where does the money go?"
"Old Yang, you are being a little extreme. It's nothing for Teacher Lin to do a live broadcast after class. As for giving gifts, it's the people who watch the live broadcast who are willing to give gifts. Teacher Lin didn't force them to do so, so it's not against the rules."
"She didn't ask for gifts, nor did she make donations in the name of charity, but some things don't need to be said explicitly. Will the videos she shot and the certificates she posted for charity affect the people who watch her live broadcasts? Will they think that the money will be used for the children and attract netizens to watch it?"
"Get traffic." Lin Ye replied.
"Yes, I asked my son who is in college, and he also mentioned traffic, but I don't really understand it."
Lin Ye knew what Teacher Yang was talking about. He felt that Teacher Lin, under the guise of teaching and charity, was using live broadcasts to deceive netizens into giving him gifts.
However, Lin Ye wanted to see it more thoroughly. I'm afraid that not many of those who gave gifts were doing so for charity. Those who gave gifts in the live broadcast room were doing so for people. To put it bluntly, they were just perverts.
The real benefit that Mr. Lin gained was the platform’s traffic.
Teaching, beautiful female teachers, enthusiastic about public welfare...
These positive energy things are exactly what the platform needs. In this case, the platform will inevitably give more traffic.
"Old Yang, I know what you said, but everyone has selfish motives. Otherwise, why would the higher authorities provide some policies for volunteer teachers? Do we think that these teachers who come to volunteer to teach are not good teachers just because they want to get the policies? The benefits that Teacher Lin has brought to our school are real. Even if Teacher Lin has some selfish motives, it is not unacceptable."
Principal Tan sighed. It was obvious that he was aware of what Teacher Yang had said. In fact, when people from above came to interview him on several occasions, he had actively spoken well of Teacher Lin because Teacher Lin could bring donations to the school.
Money is the most real thing.
Money can improve children's lives, money can give teachers more benefits and help retain teachers.
"If she was just doing the same thing as before, filming some videos, I wouldn't care what she did, but this year is obviously different. She wants to make some achievements. She is harming the children in our school again."
Principal Tan remained silent this time. It was obvious that he understood what Teacher Yang meant. However, Wei Yang did not understand: "Teacher Yang, if Teacher Lin wants to achieve some results, it means that she is more attentive. How can this harm the students?"
"She is a music teacher. If she wants to achieve good results, she has to take the children to singing competitions and performances. If it were in the city, I would definitely not stop her, but here we are. The children rehearsed a chorus and performed a dance and won awards. Besides bringing glory to those bureaucrats, it also shows that schools in our remote areas also pay attention to the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor.
What's the point of adding some glory to herself?"
"Can these kids get into a good middle school with this? Or can they discover their musical talent and pursue art? Can our kids afford art?"
"If our children want to get out of the mountains, they have to study hard. Studying is the only way out. Only by working many times harder than the city kids can we win over the city kids."
Teacher Yang's words left Principal Tan and Wei Yang silent, because they knew that what Teacher Yang said was true.
Things like music, art, and first prizes in singing competitions can add to the school's honor, meet the requirements of the Education Commission, and children like them very much. But are these really good for children in mountainous areas?
Now we advocate that children in cities should also have it for children in rural areas.
But do rural children have the same benefits and starting line that city children have?
"Old Yang..."
Principal Tan wanted to explain, but Teacher Yang interrupted him, "Yes, Teacher Lin brought supplies to our school. The government now provides a lot of subsidies for education in poor areas like ours, plus some donations from caring people. Without Teacher Lin, the students might not eat well, but they won't go hungry or suffer from malnutrition."
"In fact, this is not the reason why I couldn't help getting angry today. Principal, you know this student Li Yanshi, right?"
"I know. You are the top student in your class and the best in our school." Principal Tan nodded. As a principal, not every student might know this, but the top students would definitely know it.
"Li Yanshi actually copied lyrics in my math class. This kid is smart and she understood what I said a long time ago. It's okay for her to be distracted during a class. But I just learned from Teacher He that Li Yanshi wrote an essay called "My Dream" about wanting to be a music teacher who can sing and play the piano like Teacher Lin."
Teacher Yang had been patient for a long time, but Li Yanshi's essay was the real fuse.
"This teacher Lin gave Li Shiyan a flute and said that Li Shiyanshi had musical talent and encouraged her to practice more. This is harming people."
"Li Yanshi's mother passed away early, and her father worked outside all year round. She only has her grandparents at home. Her grandmother suffers from asthma, and their life was already difficult. How many flute lessons are there? The cheapest one costs several hundred yuan. Is this something a student like Li Yanshi can aspire to?"
Looking at Teacher Yang's indignant expression, Lin Ye suddenly thought of a passage.
It takes at least three generations for a family to produce an artist.
Fine arts, music, these art majors have never been something that ordinary families can afford. Most of the children from well-off families in the city who study art and music do so to get extra points in art exams. After graduation, how many of them can truly become artists and musicians? Even if there are, most of them work as teachers in some training schools and barely make ends meet.
At the same time, Lin Ye also thought of a hot topic of discussion some time ago: small town test-takers.
Most ordinary children rewrite their fate by becoming small town test-takers.
This is the case for ordinary children. What children in remote mountainous areas like Li Yanshi need is to do more exercises for others.
From this perspective, Teacher Yang did nothing wrong.
"Teacher Yang, isn't your idea a little too extreme?"
"Actually, Teacher Yang is worried that the children will be delayed in their studies, and secondly, she thinks that Teacher Lin has bad intentions. I can't help with the former, but I can verify the latter for Teacher Yang."
Lin Ye spoke, and Teacher Yang looked at him in confusion and asked, "How do we verify it?"
"It's simple. Teacher Yang, if you think that Teacher Lin is using the children to gain benefits for himself, then cut off these benefits. It just so happens that I know the senior executives of that short video platform. I'll give them a call and ask them to shut down the reward function of Teacher Lin's live broadcast room."
When Principal Tan heard what Lin Ye said, he looked a little surprised . He was not like Teacher Yang, who knew nothing about other things except teaching. Nowadays, with such a large online platform, not to mention him as a principal, even the boss of the county might not pay attention to it.
Especially when it comes to breaking the rules, most people really can't do it.
Wei Yang's expression didn't change much. This kind of thing was a small matter for the appraisal institute. The appraisal institute had a department specifically for negotiating with these online platforms. It sounds better to say "negotiation", but in reality it is supervision and management.
After all, the Internet is so developed now and everyone has a mobile phone. Sometimes some supernatural events are easily filmed and uploaded to the Internet, and colleagues in the department are responsible for removing them as soon as possible.
"If she doesn't do that live broadcast and still insists on teaching, then I will apologize to her."
"good. "
Lin Ye picked up the phone and walked aside, then directly called Zhong Shan. Zhong Shan on the other end of the phone was a little confused after hanging up.
Could it be that the woman had offended Consultant Lin?
But if you offend Consultant Lin, just ban him directly. Why ban the reward function in the live broadcast room?
He found it difficult to explain to his colleagues in charge of network affairs, but no matter how difficult it was, he had to do it because it was Consultant Lin's order.
…
…
On the other side, Lin Yuanyuan returned angrily to the dormitory arranged for her by the school.
Originally, two teachers lived together, but after discussion between her and Principal Tan, she lived alone in this dormitory.
Half of the dormitory space is occupied by her live broadcast equipment. This live broadcast room was carefully decorated by her. On the background wall behind the camera are photos of her and many students.
The students in the photo have dirty faces, but they are filled with happy smiles.
She waited until the students got out of school in the afternoon to take these photos. The children in the village do not have much concept of hygiene because their grandparents are the ones who stay in the village. That generation will not take good care of the children, but they can still ask the children to wash their faces and hands before going to bed at night.
Therefore, when the children come to school in the morning, their bodies and faces are not too dirty. Except that their faces are not as pink and tender as those of the city children, and their clothes are not as pretty as those of the city children, everything else is similar to the city children.
How can such photos convey that she went to a poor mountainous area?
In addition, before she came to teach again, she deliberately watched some public welfare promotional videos. Only by taking pictures of the children looking dirty, with frozen hands and faces, could she arouse the love of netizens.
Yes, the teaching was fake. She had already had a purpose before she came to the school to teach, which was to establish herself as a charity internet celebrity.
There is a charity link below the video link, which just makes netizens think that the purpose of her shooting the video is to let everyone understand how hard it is for children in mountainous areas and to let everyone contribute their love.
After all, this is a donation link for some charitable organizations, the money will not go into her pocket, and no one will say that she is making money in the name of charity.
And thanks to this link, many charitable organizations have issued her awards and certificates of commendation. Many netizens think these certificates are very precious, but in fact, as long as you donate some money online, charitable organizations are willing to issue them. After all, for these charitable organizations, the cost of issuing a certificate is only a few dollars.
With these operations, she gained fame and traffic from the platform, and finally monetized it through gifts in the live broadcast room.
Yes, she never actively asks for gifts in the live broadcast room, but those fans will take the initiative to give her gifts, and they also feel that she is different from those anchors who ask for gifts, and that live broadcasts are for promoting public welfare.
In order to maintain her image, she cannot flirt with the top guy like other female anchors and has to be reserved. But even without the top guy, relying on so many fans, each of them giving her a few cents a day, and a few wealthy people giving her hundreds or thousands of dollars, and with a few PK games, her live streaming income for a month is still half a million.
This year, she earned almost five million.
The most important thing is that she also maintained her own reputation. Although some female anchors made money, they generally did not dare to mention their profession to their family members or relatives, because in the eyes of most people, online live streaming is just online begging, and the reputation of female anchors is even worse.
But she is different. She does this to promote charity and to get more college students to teach in remote areas. She is positive energy and has official awards and reports to back her up. She doesn't need to hide it from others. Moreover, she hooked up with a rich second-generation man online, and his parents are able to accept her.
To be honest, after each live broadcast, Lin Yuanyuan is proud of the decision she made a year ago, and the methods she came up with are really useful.
Of course, there are people online who question me, saying that I appear in every one of my videos. If I really want to teach, I can take more photos of my students and myself in beautiful clothes. I am just using the name of teaching to package myself.
At the beginning, she would argue with these people, but later she simply blocked them. After the certificate from the charity organization was issued, plus the tens of thousands of dollars she donated, she didn't need to reply to any netizens' comments like this, because there was a group of fans speaking for her.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuanyuan changed into a new set of clothes, adjusted the lighting, and chose to start the show.
Soon, a lot of people poured into the live broadcast room, including many of her die-hard fans.
Just like before, after a simple greeting, Lin Yuanyuan was ready to start playing the instrument. She wanted to be reserved and create an attitude that live streaming was just for sharing life and she didn't care about gifts.
A few minutes later, after a piece of music was over, Lin Yuanyuan looked at the screen of her mobile phone. There were already more than a thousand people there. But after looking at the screen for a while, she felt a little surprised. Why didn't anyone send a gift? Normally, even if there was no big gift, there would be a small gift worth a dime.
Until I saw a fan typing on the public screen: Did the black fans see that? The anchor didn’t even look at the rewards during the live broadcast. Those who said that the anchor was putting on a show can get out of here.
"Did I forget to start the reward?"
Lin Yuanyuan opened the background of the live broadcast from the computer and found that the reward function was indeed not turned on. She tried to click on it with the mouse, but found that it didn't work and the switch button was gray.
When Lin Yuanyuan saw the gray button, she had a bad feeling. She broadcast for another ten minutes and then found a reason to stop.
After the live broadcast, she first searched the situation on the Internet. The search results told her that in this case, the reward function of the live broadcast room was usually permanently closed.
The reward function has been permanently closed, so isn’t her account useless?
Thinking of this, Lin Yuanyuan immediately called the platform to inquire about the situation. She had not violated any regulations, so why should her reward function be turned off?
However, the reply from the platform's customer service stunned her. The platform had introduced new rules. Any live broadcast room categorized as a public welfare propaganda room would have its reward function permanently closed. This new rule had just started, and a few anchors had been selected for trial implementation. She happened to be one of the lucky ones selected by the platform.
What made her even more desperate was that not only was the reward function of the live broadcast room closed, but also third-party advertising links, and only public welfare links could be placed. Advertising promotion was not allowed, and opening stores to upload products was not allowed.
“How could this happen? Doesn’t the platform want to make money?”
Lin Yuanyuan didn't understand. Her annual income of 5 million meant that the platform also earned 5 million. In addition to her, there were many internet celebrities who made money under the banner of charity. That was a lot of money in a year, so why didn't the platform want it?
"Then what's the point of my live broadcast?"
In anger, Lin Yuanyuan began to think about quitting her teaching. If she could not accept gifts, she would only be able to gain some official reports and medals from charity organizations. However, these things were only for show and could not bring her any income at all.
…
…
Three days later!
Lin Ye received a call from Wei Yang.
"Advisor Lin, Principal Tan just told me that something happened at teacher Lin's home. Her mother is sick and there is no one to take care of her, so she can't teach anymore. She has already reported that she is leaving."
Listening to Wei Yang's report, Lin Ye's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Ye called Zhong Shan and said, "Banned Lin Yuanyuan from all aspects of the internet."
"Okay, does Consultant Lin have any other instructions?"
When Zhong Shan asked this on the phone, Lin Ye was silent for a moment, and then said: "The suffering of adults is fine, but the suffering of children is the sin of all our people, and using these children for personal gain is a crime."
"Advisor Lin, I understand what you mean."
After Zhong Shan ended the call, his expression became serious. Consultant Lin's words were very strong this time.
Sin, crime!
This matter could not be taken lightly, so he immediately called his superiors.
Three days later!
The five major departments of Propaganda, Culture, Broadcasting, Cyberspace Administration of China, Industry and Information Technology, and Security jointly issued a document to severely crack down on the behavior of seeking personal gain under the banner of public welfare on the Internet platform.
At the same time, major online platforms also took action, blocking nearly a hundred accounts in one day.
This news attracted the attention of many netizens, who applauded and praised it. Then many sharp-eyed netizens discovered that Teacher Lin was among them.
Of course, compared with the Internet platform, Teacher Lin is just a small ripple, and the actions of the five departments are not over.
Just the next day, the five departments joined forces with the six civil affairs departments to investigate charitable organizations across the country, focusing on projects carried out by those charitable organizations to help poor children in mountainous areas and to donate money and supplies.
The result shocked people all over the country. It turned out that most charitable organizations would charge a 20% management fee after raising funds for these projects, and some even charged as high as 50%.
This immediately ignited public opinion.
However, during the investigation, it was also found that there are indeed some organizations that are truly committed to charity. They not only raise funds, but also donate money and materials. The government has also given great exposure and rewards to these organizations that are truly committed to charity.
After all, the authorities want to regulate it, not destroy charity.
A certain city, a certain charity organization.
"President Zhang, the situation has been tense recently. Should we suspend the project?"
"Stop? Why should we stop?"
"But this time it seems like the higher-ups are serious about it."
"What are you afraid of? The more departments involved, the more likely it is that there will be no rain. Besides, if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. You don't need to worry about it. In our city, as long as my brother is here, nothing will go wrong."
Chairman Zhang glared at the man who was speaking. How could he buy luxury goods for his girlfriend if the project was stopped? He was planning to take his girlfriend on an overseas trip after receiving the money from the project. He was very depressed because he couldn't go abroad in the past few years.
"That's right, with President Zhang and your brother here..."
The man was about to say a few flattering words when the office door suddenly opened and several law enforcement officers walked in.
"Zhang Liangchao, come with us."
"Go with you?" Looking at these law enforcement officers, Zhang Liangchao's heart skipped a beat, but he was not too scared. With his brother around, there was nothing that could not be solved.
"Okay, I'll call my family and tell them."
"No need, we will inform your family when the time comes."
Zhang Liangchao was immediately furious at the attitude of the law enforcement officers. He slammed the table and said, "What's your attitude? Do you think I'm a criminal?"
"Comrades, our Chairman Zhang's brother is Director Zhang Liangqi." The man next to him hurriedly introduced.
Zhang Liangchao raised his head and snorted coldly. When these people heard his brother's name, they would probably apologize to him.
"If you are talking about Zhang Liangqi from the Municipal Party Committee, then there is no need to call. Our colleagues have just taken him away and notified his family."
As soon as the law enforcement officer said this, Zhang Liangchao's legs suddenly went limp and he actually knelt down.
