Volume 5: Blossom and Fruit 2018 Chapter 894
Originally, Zhou Dongsheng's understanding of Zhang Guimei came almost entirely from text descriptions. The image he pieced together with just a few words was already very majestic, but also extremely flat. He could only admire her.
However, Principal Zhang's deeds are not just those of great men in history. There is no other way to understand his life except through written descriptions.
But Principal Zhang is a living individual who has written a living legendary biography with his decades of persistence.
After being filled with reality, her image in Zhou Dongsheng's heart has become fuller and richer.
As the saying goes, if you don't understand, you have no right to speak, but after some in-depth understanding, Zhou Dongsheng had to admit that he still had no right to speak.
There is only one feeling in my heart, that is, some beliefs and spirits can really transcend the mundane world and make people sacrifice their lives and devote everything.
Perhaps, some people's spirit is indeed more terrifying than their body. The human body undoubtedly has its limits, but only the spirit can reach a realm that mortal flesh cannot reach!
At this moment, Zhou Dongsheng was truly shocked and deeply realized what it means to "seeing is believing"!
Such a living legend and such an awe-inspiring spirit should not be confined to one corner, but should be widely spread so that more people can know about it!
Now Zhou Dongsheng could understand to some extent why the authorities used him as a propaganda model and awarded him the highest honor ...
After all, this level of spiritual attainment has already far exceeded what ordinary people can imagine and has reached a level that ordinary people cannot reach.
Not only did Principal Zhang speak from his own experience, but many students who could not hold back their temper also kept adding to the story and using their own personal experiences to prove it.
Even Zhao Youde is no exception. After all, Principal Zhang has been working diligently in the local area for more than 30 years. He cannot be said to have many students all over the world, but whether in the city or even in the province, Principal Zhang is definitely a well-known figure.
Not only has he won numerous awards, but he has also invested all of his rewards into education.
"Although I have little education, today, Principal Zhang has truly realized a closed loop of education. In the past, when I read 'A silkworm may not stop spinning silk until it dies, a candle may not stop shedding tears until it is burned down to ashes', I was unable to understand the profound meaning of it..."
"But now that I've met Principal Zhang, I finally understand the deep meaning behind it!"
Zhou Dongsheng said this with sincere admiration, and even a hint of pilgrimage mentality emerged in his heart. With Principal Zhang's spiritual height, he is indeed no different from a living saint.
At the same time, a strong urge emerged in my heart, an urge to do something...
"As a teacher, I just can't bear to see these children unable to receive education for various reasons. Education is the only way out of the mountains, no other way..."
Principal Zhang spoke slowly, his tone extremely firm. This was undoubtedly the life creed he had practiced for forty years, and it was also her understanding of the profession of teacher.
Teaching and educating people, that's all.
"I have learned from Principal Zhang. I have a humble request. I want to spread your deeds so that more people will know about them. After all, you also know how powerful the educational power of role models is!"
"At the same time, I also want to do my best..." Zhou Dongsheng put forward his thoughts in an orderly manner.
At first, Principal Zhang refused subconsciously. She didn't care much about fame and fortune. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed in this mountain for decades and adhered to the duties of a teacher from beginning to end.
Zhou Dongsheng is naturally well aware of this, so he took a roundabout way to save the country and explained the role of the Internet today.
"Originally, I made a bet with a group of Weibo users, just thinking about donating money in everyone's name and doing something practical. But after being inspired by Principal Zhang, I feel that simply donating money is really unlikely to have an effect..."
"As Principal Zhang said, education is the only way out. However, education is a long-term plan after all. There are only a few people like Principal Zhang who can stick to their posts and dedicate themselves for decades!"
"Principal Zhang, you have helped thousands of students get out of the mountains for decades. This is indeed great, but human power is limited. This is already the limit..."
"But role models are different. Role models can continuously influence generation after generation. At the same time, with your role model, our funds can also play the greatest role!"
"So, I still hope that Principal Zhang can agree to my unwelcome request. Whether you agree or not, I am willing to donate 10 million to this school in my personal name..."
Zhou Dongsheng explained it with emotion and reason, and finally Principal Zhang thought it over again and again and spoke slowly.
"If it is really as you said, then I can personally agree, but it must not be used for commercial purposes such as profit-making. After all, I am not only a teacher, but also a party member..."
The meaningful words also shocked Zhou Dongsheng slightly. Even if he knew how important the latter was, he naturally knew it in his heart.
So he said very seriously: "I assure Principal Zhang that this is absolutely impossible..."
Zhao Youde on the side couldn't help but say something extra, "Principal Zhang, you don't know that Jay Chou is worth hundreds of billions, so it's impossible for him to seek such a small profit..."
Before he could finish, Principal Zhang couldn't help but smile and said, "I know, but I am me and he is him. Although I am old, I can also use the Internet. I can check it out and I will know..."
"Also, 10 million is too much. The school can't use it all. Let's use it as a student aid fund to help other students..."
Although the school is located in the mountains, it does not mean that it is isolated from information. Especially as a high school, the infrastructure is very complete, and network cables are naturally available.
There may be some restrictions just out of consideration for students' learning, but this restriction obviously cannot be applied to Principal Zhang.
Principal Zhang's plain words were so powerful that everyone present could not help but be convinced.
Even those who had originally come here with Zhou Dongsheng were now impressed by Principal Zhang's personal charm.
When a person is pure to this extent, it is enough to make most people feel ashamed in front of him.
"In that case, let's set up a student aid fund in the name of Principal Zhang. It would be best if the local authorities took the lead to ensure that the money is used for its intended purpose and is open and transparent. At the same time, we can also use this opportunity to call on caring people from all walks of life to join..."
Zhou Dongsheng spoke smoothly, and his words were so clear and logical that it was obvious that this idea was not a sudden impulse, but rather the result of careful consideration.
"If that's the case, I can make the decision on behalf of the city. We will actively cooperate, take the lead in establishing this student aid fund, and do a good job in management and supervision..."
Zhao Youde's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he patted his chest loudly, and immediately took the responsibility.
With the two of them singing the same tune, Principal Zhang could no longer shirk his responsibility. After all, this was indeed a good thing, and it would be enough as long as the money could be put to good use.
"If there's nothing else, then let's just leave it at that. We still have classes to go on at school..." After they finished talking about the matter, Principal Zhang immediately "inhumanely" called out to drive them away.
Zhou Dongsheng naturally had no objection to this. "Okay, then we won't disturb Principal Zhang's class. We will stay in Huaping for a few more days and will follow up with you on the follow-up matters..."
Zhou Dongsheng stood up and left. Zhao Youde felt a little embarrassed. "Hey, Principal Zhang, why don't you just give the children a day off?"
"Hasn't it been a whole morning already? Time is running out and we can't slack off on our studies..." Principal Zhang said stubbornly.
Zhao Youde said no more and followed Zhou Dongsheng out.
"Please don't be surprised, Mr. Zhou. This is Principal Zhang's personality..." Zhao Youde said apologetically. After all, Zhou Dongsheng's attitude of offering 10 million just now was enough to show that he was really serious about his work.
This point alone was enough for him to be treated differently. Even though he was a member of the city's leadership team, Zhao Youde also knew the truth that "a good cook cannot cook without rice".
Just as there are gaps between places, the gap between city leaders is also like a chasm.
Especially in this remote place, anyone who can donate 10 million without blinking an eye is definitely a noble person.
"Hey, what are you talking about? This just shows that Principal Zhang cares about students and education. Principal Zhang has finished his visit, don't we still have business to attend to? Let's go check on Mango's matter..."
Zhou Dongsheng waved his hand and said, after discussing the issue of financial aid to students, we can't delay the important matter of helping farmers, right?
Now that I have made up my mind to do it, I will certainly not do it in a small way. I might as well take a big step and try to see how big a wave I can create with my current abilities!
It doesn't matter whether I have money or not. With my current wealth, let alone the rest of my life, even if I spend lavishly, it would be enough to last for several lifetimes.
Although it is true that if you eat up the mountain you will eventually run out of money, doesn't it mean that the gold mountain Zhou Dongsheng is sitting on will continue to appreciate in value?
"Okay, then we'll lead the way, and Mr. Jay and your car will follow behind!" Zhao Youde was shocked when he heard this, and decisively went forward to lead the way.
After the group got into his car, Zhou Dongsheng said slowly, "Did you hear what I just said?"
"Arrange relevant personnel and treat this matter as a top priority. Whether it is Principal Zhang's deeds or our work in helping students and farmers, we must do our best to spread the word..."
"Times have changed. This is no longer the era where we can do good deeds without leaving a name. We have to shout loudly about what we have done, otherwise who would know we did it?"
Zhou Dongsheng said calmly.
Both Li Jiana and Zhang Xiaoguang were shocked. For a moment, they couldn't figure out their boss' intentions. They just felt that their boss seemed to be playing a big game...
Despite this, the two of them immediately responded: "Understood, Chairman, I'll arrange it right away!"
Although they were still in the car, they both entered working mode at the same time and began to coordinate related matters remotely. After all, the boss said that they should treat it as a "top priority"!
Considering the current size of Dongsheng Group, if they want to mobilize all resources to do a top priority, the commotion that can be created will naturally be huge.
Since Zhou Dongsheng was the one who had the final say, naturally no one could interfere with his decision-making, and all departments of the entire group were immediately mobilized.
In the next few days, Dongsheng Group's capabilities began to be demonstrated, and the relevant team rushed to Huaping without stopping, and some of them were responsible for developing the story around Principal Zhang's deeds.
Sincerity is the ultimate weapon. Since we want to use Principal Zhang as a role model for publicity, we naturally have to improve some and add some persuasiveness, especially in the context of today's mobile Internet era...
Text alone is obviously not enough, there must be pictures and videos so that thousands of netizens can see it for themselves.
At the same time, in addition to Principal Zhang, the agricultural assistance work for Huaping mangoes has naturally not been left behind. Especially if you want to complete a live broadcast to sell goods seriously, you naturally need a professional team to be adequately prepared.
For this purpose, Zhou Dongsheng not only wanted to "lead the army in person", but also sent his number one general Li Jiaqi to join the battle!
This combination of two kings, the big and small kings, had already made a big splash when they last appeared on the stage for the debut of the [Muziqi] snail noodle brand.
Not only did it break various records in the industry, it also made live streaming e-commerce, a form of old wine in a new bottle, more visible to the public.
Of course, all this is thanks to Zhou Dongsheng, the traffic code. It was under his leadership that such achievements were made.
But it has to be said that even if he was just a supporting role, after this live broadcast, Li Jiaqi also gained huge exposure and intercepted some of the traffic to benefit himself.
And with Zhou Dongsheng's strong support and the group's resources allocated, Li Jiaqi successfully took up the banner of live streaming sales in the group, and with his hard-working momentum, he quickly became the group's sole live streaming sales figure.
Not only that, she has emerged as a dark horse in the industry and quickly ranked among the first echelon of the industry, second only to Zhang Dayi and others who entered the market earlier and have achieved more results.
Today, Li Jiaqi is no longer an unknown person, but a rising star in the industry, and his income has naturally increased dramatically.
Everything was hard-won, but Li Jiaqi knew very well that if it weren't for the boss's appreciation and unreserved support, he would never have gotten what he has now...
When he heard that he had the opportunity to live broadcast with his boss again, Li Jiaqi rushed to Huaping without stopping, and was willing to be Zhou Dongsheng's supporting actor once again.
However, this time, Zhou Dongsheng did not intend to let Li Jiaqi be a supporting role, but was preparing for a real showdown between the two in terms of sales ability.
I won unfairly last time, so I might as well try again to see how much Li Jiaqi has improved. The most important thing is...
Leave professional matters to professionals!
