rebirth against the times

The New Year is approaching, and the land of China is full of joy. It seems that the impact of the financial crisis has gradually passed, and there are joyful and peaceful scenes everywhere. On the edge of a county town west of the capital of Shu, a brand-new welfare home will be officially opened today. This welfare home

The home covers an area of ​​more than 30 acres. It is equipped with the most complete living facilities and very responsible staff. Director Zhao of the welfare home is a caring person who enjoys a high reputation in the industry. At the moment, she is leading

Many employees and children in the home are waiting eagerly at the entrance of the orphanage. What they are waiting for is the donor of the orphanage - the Love Angel Fund.

Two cars drove slowly. Li Zhen, the head of the Love Angel Fund, got out of the car, followed by Bai Shuo, Nangong Ming, Zhu Zhu, Cao An, Anna, Zhao Yong, and Xiao Lin. They also brought many gifts to the children.

Everyone's hands were full of gifts. Upon seeing this, Director Zhao of the welfare home hurriedly led everyone to help Li Zhen share the gifts.

"Dean Zhao, didn't you tell me not to do it with such a big fanfare?" Li Zhen said to Dean Zhao. Bai Shuo also specifically told him before that there should be no fancy ceremonies and the like. We are sincerely doing charity.

It's not about fame and reputation.

Dean Zhao said very apologetically: "President Li, there is nothing I can do about it. The children are very happy to be able to move to such a good new home. I heard that you are coming today, and everyone did it spontaneously."

Li Zhen shook his head: "That's all, let the children be happy today."

Li Zhen held a simple unveiling ceremony for the orphanage. Bai Shuo and others distributed gifts to the children, and then played happily with the children. These children obviously loved their new home very much, with smiles on everyone's faces.

He showed a happy smile. Cao An acted like a big child, and even played a hide-and-seek game with everyone. Because of his strong body, he was always the first to be found by the children, and he even started playing tricks. Anna was also on the welfare

After staying in the hospital for a while, seeing this scene suddenly reminded me of that unforgettable time, and a smile appeared on my face frequently.

Bai Shuo seemed to like children very much. He quickly became involved with the children and told them all kinds of stories.

Children are always curious. After Bai Shuo finished telling a fairy tale, a child asked: "Brother Bai, what will the world be like in the future? Will it be like in the story?"

This child's question resonated with everyone. Bai Shuo smiled and comforted the hilarious children, and then said: "The world in the future... is even better than the fairy tale just now." Then he told the children about it.

He remembers what the world will look like more than ten years later, focusing on the development of science and technology and the changes in people's lifestyles. Because Bai Shuo made many things very fantastic, the children were immediately attracted.

At the end of the story, Bai Shuo said: "What my brother just said requires the joint efforts of many people and the use of scientific knowledge to achieve. So, you should study hard now and grow up in the future.

Then, you can use your own hands and wisdom to create these things and change the world."

The children were moved by Bai Shuo's words, and they all said that they would study hard and become useful people in the future. Many children even told Bai Shuo cutely and loudly: "Brother, I got all A's in the exam this semester." "Brother."

, I got 100 points in the math test." "Brother, I will also get 100 points in the next semester."... Bai Shuo did not notice that there was an older child standing next to this group of children.

Shi Zheng was looking at Bai Shuo, his eyes shining brightly. There was also a person behind him looking at Bai Shuo, with an unpredictable look in his eyes.

Just when everyone was having a great time, there was a burst of beatings and crying in the distance. Bai Shuo, Li Zhen and the dean rushed over to check the situation. It turned out that it was an older girl who was beating and scolding an older girl.

The younger boy was separated by the staff. The little boy kept crying and the little girl looked angry. Dean Zhao asked: "What's wrong? Xiaohong, why did you hit me?"

"

The little girl's eyes were filled with tears at this time. She pointed to a wall in the dormitory building not far away and said, "Xiao Tao is disobedient and doesn't like to be clean. Our brand new dormitory wall was stained by him just now."

After saying that, the little girl who had always been very strong started to cry.

Everyone followed what Xiao Hong was pointing and saw that there was a small patch of colorful stains on the white wall, and Xiao Tao's hand happened to have the same color paint. At this time, Xiao Tao cried even more.

It was so awesome that she burst into tears and said: "I...I don't want to...stain the wall. It's because I didn't stand firm...wuwu...".

Li Zhen was suddenly moved to tears. She understood that the conflict between the two children was caused by this stain. In their hearts, this brand-new yard may be their entire happiness, and no one would be allowed to come.

It was stained. Li Zhen immediately rushed up and hugged the two children: "Okay, you are all family members living together. Family members should tolerate and understand each other. Sister, I will have this stain repaired tomorrow. I will definitely

Can I give you a clean dormitory wall?"

The two children both showed happy expressions and laughed happily.

At this time, Xiao Lin walked over, knelt down and whispered something in the little boy's ear. The little boy nodded and ran upstairs quickly. After a while, he brought a bunch of things, including paints and brushes.

.

Xiao Lin took the thing from the little boy's hand and walked to the wall. Suddenly he started to draw on the stain with a brush. After a while, a little boy playing with balloons under the rainbow appeared on the wall.

In the colorful picture, the little boy looks somewhat similar to the little boy in front of him, and the stains have been changed into spots under the sunlight, which together with the little boy's smiling face, makes it look very vivid and natural.

The little boy became even happier. Seeing this, Bai Shuo also pulled Li Zhen forward, picked up the brush and paint and started painting together. Li Zhen turned around and asked the little boy: "Are you learning to paint?"

The little boy nodded. Li Zhen pointed to the wall and asked, "Do you dare to draw?"

The little boy nodded happily again. Li Zhen took the little boy and the little girl to the wall and started painting. More and more children and adults joined the painting process. Soon, the wall was more than ten meters wide.

The walls are covered with various patterns. There are airplanes, rockets, saplings, parents, grandparents, and children. These patterns all represent the best things and the most sincere emotions in the children's hearts.

and dreams...

After everyone had lunch together in the cafeteria, Li Zhen and others came to the office with Dean Zhao and other management staff of the welfare home to exchange opinions. Seeing that Dean Zhao was hesitant to speak several times, Li Zhen took the initiative to ask about Zhao.

Dean, is there anything else you need help with?

Dean Zhao saw that Li Zhen took the initiative to make things clear, so he no longer hesitated and told Li Zhen that there was a very outstanding boy in the orphanage. His parents died when he was young. He originally had a grandfather but he was disabled, so the child was still

He was sent to an orphanage for adoption. But this boy was very smart. He learned all the knowledge in four years of elementary school and was promoted to junior high school. Then he completed all the courses in junior high school in just one year. Because the school considered that he was too old

When he was young, he didn't agree to graduate, so he didn't successfully enter a key high school until his second year. When he was a sophomore in high school, the school gave him a set of college entrance examination questions, and he actually got a high score of 710 points. This child is already a senior in high school this year.

I believe he will get a very good result. However, this child does not seem to want to go to college, because although there are scholarships, they still cannot afford various high school expenses. At the same time, this child also wants to work as soon as possible to earn money to help his disabled grandfather.

.So Dean Zhao hopes that the foundation can help help this child.

After hearing this, Li Zhen asked Dean Zhao to call the child over. After a while, a boy who was only fifteen or sixteen years old was brought to the office. Looking at that frail body, it was difficult for everyone to imagine that this was a child who was about to face the college entrance examination.

, and if it weren’t for some special reasons, maybe this child would already be studying in college at this moment.

Li Zhen pulled the boy and asked: "My child, what is your name?"

"Chen Guang"

"How old are you this year?"

"fifteen"

"You are such a smart kid. You are already qualified to go to college at such a young age. But tell my sister, why don't you want to go to college?"

Chen Guang bit his lip: "I want to work as soon as possible to take care of grandpa. Moreover, I heard that going to college requires a lot of money..." As he said that, Chen Guang lowered his head.

Li Zhen looked at the timid boy and suddenly felt very uncomfortable. She said to the boy: "Don't worry and go to the exam. Our foundation and welfare home will fully bear the cost of your college. We will send your grandfather to the elderly."

Hospital care, all expenses will be paid by me."

The boy looked at Li Zhen in surprise: "Really? Sister"

Li Zhen nodded.

At this time, Bai Shuo said: "You can take care of one person like this, but you can never take care of more people. I think our fund should go deeper into the field of education in the future so that more orphans and poor children can afford to go to school."

And it’s not just about tuition fees and book fees, but for children whose lives are particularly difficult, we should also consider the children’s daily living expenses and other issues.”

Zhu Zhu also lamented: "Children like Chen Guang are rare talents. It would be a pity if they were wasted like this."

At this time, Dean Zhao said again: "Actually, we still have a child like Chen Guang in our orphanage."

When Bai Shuo heard this, he immediately became interested. A talented young man like Chen Guang can be said to be one of a million. He didn't expect that there was more than one in this small orphanage.

Dean Zhao continued to introduce: "This child is called Meng Qian. He is only 6 years old this year and has just entered elementary school. But he is very talented and can learn everything at once. Before entering elementary school, he was taught by the staff of the welfare home.

Next, I have learned all the characters that I should know in primary school, and I can also recite three hundred Tang poems, can do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and even ponder the "Book of Changes" by myself. Since the teachers in the welfare home are not very good,

It’s too high, so I can only teach Meng Gan so many things. What he is learning in the first grade of elementary school is a complete waste of time for Meng Gan, but it is really difficult to skip a grade, so I feel quite anxious.

."

Bai Shuo asked the dean to call Meng Qian over. He saw that the child had bright eyes and he looked very smart and cute. Nangong Ming was very interested in this child and ordered a few Tang poems first. He recited it word by word, not only that, but also expressed the meaning of the poem and his own opinions. Then Nangong Ming asked some more simple contents in the "Book of Changes". Although the little guy couldn't understand it clearly, he also said It was so impressive that Nangong Ming was greatly praised.

Cao An wanted to test the little guy's mathematics and came up with several three-digit mixed operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't even use a pen. He just did some mental calculations and quickly came up with the answer. Cao An spent a long time with the calculator. Only then did it prove that Meng Qian's calculation results were completely correct. He said to Bai Shuo in a daze: "Brother Geng, this little guy is really a genius."

At this time, Xiao Lin said: "Our current education system is indeed a bit too rigid. There is no better training mechanism for gifted children like Meng Qian. Although they will certainly be able to stand out in their daily studies, it is inevitable that they cannot be taught in accordance with their aptitude. It's a shame to waste your talent."

Bai Shuo thought about it and suddenly had an idea. The Jinmiao Foundation is building a school in the northwest region. At that time, this school will specifically target children with extraordinary talents, set up a special class for gifted teenagers, and recruit the best talents. The teaching staff is looking for talented young people from all over the country, focusing on learning, setting aside the current education system, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, and implementing targeted training. When the little ones have learned to a certain level, they will contact the corresponding domestic institutions based on their strengths. The in-depth professional training of these children by foreign educational institutions will inevitably cultivate a group of top talents for China. Of course, all the expenses for these students from childhood to adulthood will be borne by the foundation and related corporate institutions under Bai Shuo.

At this time, Nangong Ming suddenly made a suggestion. Although this gifted youth class is affiliated with the school, it should be relatively independent from the school in order to avoid interference. All students’ information and learning materials are kept confidential, and all relevant agreements must be signed before learning. After completing the studies, students must be given priority to serve in various corporate institutions under Blue Ocean Capital or to work in state-owned enterprises.

Hearing this, Zhuzi's eyes also lit up, and he felt that not only top high-end talents, but also the current lack of technical talents at the grassroots level in enterprises. However, many young people do not want to learn technology and want to be white-collar workers, which has led to the grassroots level. The gap in technical talents. Zhu Zhu was inspired by Nangong Ming’s suggestion and suggested that Bai Shuo establish a directional training skills school to target the grassroots talents urgently needed by each of its companies. Then train these qualified personnel. , assigned to internships in various enterprises to enrich the grassroots workforce.

Zhuzi's proposal was immediately approved by everyone, so Bai Shuo immediately decided to create a separate vocational and technical school in addition to the school established in Northwest China as a directional training institution for Huaying Group, Blue Ocean Capital and other companies. In addition, The gifted youth class is also of great significance. Bai Shuo plans to add a relatively independent academy directly to the school to cultivate these gifted children.

Later, when the schools and colleges were sited, because the technical school was built next to a river called Hanxi in the northwest, it was called "Hanxi Vocational and Technical School", while the College for Gifted Youngsters was located in a river east of Hanxi. The foot of the mountain called Fengming Mountain was therefore called "Fengming College". Nangong Ming also petitioned to be the first dean of Fengming College, and Meng Qian also became the first batch of students of the college.
