Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 920 Origin of Students

   Regarding the establishment of an innovative modern city, Yang Chen felt that it was necessary to talk to the Xiang family this time, so as to at least let them know the real purpose of establishing Xincheng University.

Anyway, one of them is seeking fame, the other is seeking profit, Xiang family seeks fame, he seeks profit, Xincheng University is completed, and talents will be sent to Yang Chen's company in the future to serve Yang Chen. University is more famous.

  Fame and fortune, both parties benefit together.

Although it wasn't the first time he saw Xiang Lao himself, Yang Chen couldn't help but respect him. The older generation who came from the war years didn't care what he did, even if he was an ordinary farmer. They have a strong sense of age that is not found in the people of the peaceful age in later generations.

In particular, Mr. Xiang used to be in a high position in his old age, and his body has a stronger sense of age. Although he is over 80 years old, Mr. Xiang still looks very tough. Like the big guys in Xiangjiang, his spirit is stronger than that of young people. foot.

   "Xiao Yang, you are here, sit down."

   During the greeting, Xiang Lao saw several soldiers holding a box of things in their hands, and couldn't help saying: "What are you giving me, there are so many boxes in this box?"

  Yang Chen helped the old man to sit down and said with a smile: "Wine, good wine, authentic Maotai, I took a lot of effort to get it, and this time I specially brought a few boxes for your old man."

"There's one more thing that hasn't been delivered from Xingang. I'll send someone to deliver it to your house early tomorrow morning. It's not something valuable, it's a local product from the inland side. Originally, I planned to visit your old man again tomorrow. of…"

   Hearing that it was wine and local specialties, Xiang Lao wanted to refuse, but he held it back again. The Wanwan and the inland have been under martial law for decades, and there was no way for the people on both sides to contact them, let alone officials.

  Although Xiang Lao has retired, he used to work for Lao Jiang after all, and he was also a high-ranking civil affairs official. His identity was relatively sensitive. To be honest, even if he wanted to, there was no way to obtain things in the inland.

Xiang Lao took a bottle of Maotai that had been disassembled in Junzi's hands, opened the lid and smelled it, then grinned: "Xiao Yang, if you have a heart, I will accept the things, and there are good things in the future, remember to give me more. Give something, the boss gives something to the employee, and I'm not afraid of being told that I take bribes."

   Yang Chen smiled and didn't answer the call. Although the other party was actually working for him, it was hard to say that in name.

   The rich aroma of wine immediately hooked up Xiang Lao's wine bug. Xiang Lao shouted to his eldest son, "Boss, bring me a cup."

On weekdays, Xiang Lao likes to drink two sips of small wine when he has nothing to do. He doesn't drink much each time, only two small glasses. Because Xiang Lao himself can control his alcohol addiction, even if he is older, the Xiang brothers and sisters do not ask for it. He quit drinking.

   Wine, if consumed in moderation, is still good for the body, which is why many elderly people like to drink a little wine.

the other side

The old lady Xiang, who had just received the things from Xue Yufei's three daughters, heard that her wife wanted to drink, so she put down the things and said, "I'll cook some supper for everyone, and I'll get you two snacks, and the wine will be drunk later. ."

   "Okay, you can make some!"

  Xiang Lao heard this, sighed and screwed the lid of the wine bottle again, obviously wanting to wait for the snacks to come before drinking.

   From this point, Yang Chen saw the self-discipline of this old man...

After putting down the wine, Xiang Lao didn't talk nonsense to Yang Chen, and said directly: "Xiao Yang, I have already contacted the Wanwan side, and the Wanwan side has promised to include Xincheng University in the list of students studying abroad. Next, our student source Don't worry."

"Some students in Wanwan heard your name and were very active in signing up. That's what I plan to do. Next year, our school will admit 3,000 students. There will be 1,500 students in Wanwan and 1,500 students in Xiangjiang. One thousand, and the remaining five hundred are reserved for other places."

"what do you think?"

   "Too little." After hearing this, Yang Chen shook his head.

   Seeing Yang Chen's dissatisfaction, Xiang Lao said bitterly: "Xiao Yang, 3,000 people are already quite a lot. At present, there are still many areas in Xincheng University that need to be improved. It is not suitable to recruit too many people at once."

   Seeing that Elder Xiang misunderstood what he meant, Yang Chen explained: "Elder Xiang, you misunderstood what I meant, I am not saying that there are fewer students admitted, but that there are fewer places for other places."

   Xiang Lao heard the words, his eyelids moved slightly, and he was silent and did not speak.

However, Yang Chen did not stop, but continued: "Xiang Lao, you seem to have forgotten the mainland, you must know that the mainland has resumed the college entrance examination for several years, and the number of college students and college students there is larger than that of Wanwan. "

"Especially in recent years, since the reform and opening up and the stability of teaching in the inland, the number of college students admitted each year is nearly ten times that of Wanwan. With the population base of the inland, the future potential is very huge. I think that among the 3,000 people , half of the places should be vacated for inland students.

  There are a lot of materials on the Internet in later generations, which recorded the deeds of college students crossing the single-plank bridge after the resumption of the college entrance examination in the early days of the inland.

  Especially before the 1980s, millions of candidates took the college entrance examination at the same time, and only 200,000 to 300,000 people were finally admitted. On average, only one of the 20 or 30 people had the opportunity to go to university.

   In recent years, although the number of inland college entrance examinations has decreased and the number of admissions has increased, in fact, the college entrance examination has not relaxed, but has become more cruel.

  Because after the 1980s, candidates who were able to take the college entrance examination had to go through a pre-examination before they were qualified for the college entrance examination.

After the inland resumption of the college entrance examination, in order to save human, material and financial resources and other costs in the face of a huge number of candidates, each township will organize an examination one or two months before the examination to conduct pre-screening. Only those who pass the pre-exam are eligible to participate. college entrance examination.

   In other words, there may have been 10 million candidates originally, but in the end, only more than one million candidates took the college entrance examination. Those who have not passed the pre-exam, it is not that they are unwilling to apply for the college entrance examination, but that they do not even have the opportunity to take the college entrance examination.

The population of Wanwan is only 20 million, and the inland college entrance examination candidates alone account for nearly 20% of the total population of Wanwan every year. Even if the teaching resources of the inland during this period are not as good as those of Wanwan, with the population base, ten Replacing one by one can also stabilize the voltage.

   "Half the quota?" Xiang Lao frowned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted again by Yang Chen.

   "Xiang Lao, I think you should know better than me that since the reform and opening up in the inland, the tension between the bay and the inland has changed. I don't want it to be long before the relationship between the two sides will undergo further qualitative changes.

  At that time, maybe Elder Xiang, you can also set foot on the land of your hometown again. The students in Wanwan and the inland are all compatriots. What is the difference between them? I hope that you will not favor one side because of different political opinions..."
