Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 547 Going to school

In addition to a few printed Chinese characters on the "admission notice", there is also the school's name "China Europe International Business School", but the font is in calligraphy.

As for whose masterpiece it was, Li Weidong could probably guess it, but he wasn't sure. After all, his accomplishments in brush calligraphy were not calligraphy at all, he was just writing for fun.

This is an evaluation given to him by everyone, both in the previous life and in this life. It can be seen that calligraphy really has nothing to do with the length of practice, but is related to talent. It is God's reward.

There is also a line of English school name below the school name, which is very international and fits the purpose of running a school.

The workmanship of the notice is very exquisite, and it is also very elegant. The color matching, font size, and white space give people an indescribable sense of high-end at first glance.

It is estimated that when the school made this notice, it must have spent a lot of money to hire a more professional designer. It can also be seen from the workmanship of the notice that the school is deliberately defrauding tuition fees.

Li Weidong looked up at Liu Jinhui. Although she pretended not to care, Li Weidong was 100% sure that this was deliberately placed in this conspicuous position.

Li Weidong smiled inwardly. He was more than thirty years old, and he didn't expect that he would still have the heart of a child to show off, but he still cooperated with the acting.

"Hey, when did the notice from China Europe International Business School come?" Li Weidong said as he happily picked up the notice, opened it and looked at it. He must have a complete set for the show.

The notice is indeed a book, each page is exquisite and crisp. The first page is congratulations to Liu Jinhui for standing out and being admitted to the school.

Then he introduced the start time of school and various matters that need attention.

The next page is an introduction to the school, its mission, vision, honors, etc.

Finally, there is a very provocative piece of language. It seems that after receiving their education, one can become an immortal instantly, become a qualified leader, and can lead the company to become one of the top 500 companies in the world.

In short, Li Weidong doesn't believe this, and the school has only been established for a few years and has no graduates who are good at it. They also urgently need some famous students to study.

Officially because of this, application is not as difficult as later generations, and it mainly depends on the student's social status.

For example, Liu Jinhui, the general manager of a multinational company, and Li Weidong's wife. With these two identities, no matter which one you rely on to apply for an EMBA, you can easily apply for it. The written test and interview are just a formality.

"I've been here for a few days, but I don't want to go!" Liu Jinhui glanced at Li Weidong and said hesitantly.

"You don't want to go, why?" Li Weidong raised his head and asked in surprise. Although he also felt that studying this kind of EMBA would not be very useful, opening the book is beneficial. Reading it is better than not studying at all!

Moreover, Liu Jinhui carefully prepared for the written examination and interview and put in a lot of effort. Now that the notice has been sent, why didn't she go? Is it to prove that she can be admitted?

Liu Jinhui said nonchalantly: "There is no reason. I just think that studying this EMBA is of no use. I have also watched the courses, and they are all relatively common things, nothing new!"

"No, there must be other reasons. The course is not a secret. It has been announced a long time ago. You didn't just find out now, right?" Li Weidong shook his head and expressed disbelief.

"If you don't believe it, of course there is another reason. Although this class is not full-time, you still have to go to class for a few days every month. Sometimes there may be temporary courses, and it will take two years. It's too

Trouble!"

The EMBA is an on-the-job course that only requires four or five days of intensive courses each month. However, having to attend it for two consecutive years is indeed a bit troublesome for a company executive.

As the company gets bigger, there are more unexpected things happening. Who would have thought that nothing would happen in the past few days.

"Also, I asked someone to get the information of our group of students. Although most of them are corporate bosses, there are quite a few so-called elite ladies!"

"I have seen their resumes, and some of them basically have no resume as a company executive, and have even been unemployed for a long time. Their intentions are obvious!"

Although EMBA is a business management class for senior managers of companies, the actual review is not so strict, and there will always be people who can come in through special channels.

Think about it, the people in a class are all CEOs of various companies, or future CEOs, in short, they are all senior executives. If you get to know these people, you will have to accumulate many connections.

So many people come with this attitude: learning is secondary, making connections is primary, learning management is secondary, and finding partners for the company is primary.

This is circle culture.

Similarly, there are some so-called elite ladies who are targeting these people. This place is much more precise than the dating corner. It is not uncommon in later generations for EMBA classes to find rich husbands.

It is said that someone in later generations conducted a survey to find out which places are easiest to catch a "golden husband", and two-thirds of people chose "high-end courses such as EMBA and MBA."

For example, a well-known real estate general manager in later generations divorced and married a young wife who was thirty years apart. The two of them met when they were studying at a famous business school.

"You can't beat him to death with a stick, after all, there are still a small number of such people, so just pretend that you can't see them!" Li Weidong didn't feel surprised after hearing Liu Jinhui's argument.

In this world, only money and power are the eternal themes. As long as there are these two things, there will be many girls and so-called celebrities around. After all, this is a shortcut.

"How about you go and read it?" Liu Jinhui raised her eyebrows and said unhappily when Li Weidong said this.

"Look, you are thinking wrongly. If I have time, I really want to study for an MBA and study for two years. Although the course is not new, I can also study it systematically. I must have some experience in managing a company.

Good thing!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

Company management is Li Weidong's shortcoming. He has a strategic vision and sees the future accurately, but he lacks management capabilities. As the company grows, his subordinates are not the only ones who cannot keep up.

These subordinates are still studying hard, while Li Weidong has been resting on his laurels. This is also one of the reasons why Li Weidong delegates power. He cannot take care of details, and it is easy to make mistakes if he takes care of too much.

Liu Jinhui didn't believe Li Weidong's words at all. If she asked which of the executives she knew had the most time, Li Weidong would say first, and no one would dare to say second.

Li Weidong stood up and patted Liu Jinhui on the shoulder and said: "You just study hard. Besides, there are four days of classes a month. At worst, when you go to class in the future, I will take my children to travel to Shanghai to accompany you!"

"By the way, I forgot to tell you some news. I bought a small plane when I went to country M last time. Normally, it will be delivered for use early next year. You can take your own plane there by then!"

"How much is it? It's quite expensive, right?" Liu Jinhui asked in surprise, but she felt that it was not a big deal.

"It's not expensive, more than 30 million. After taking into account all kinds of mess, 40 million will be enough!" Li Weidong said with a smile. He liked to see his wife's surprise.

"RMB?" Liu Jinhui said, 30 to 40 million RMB is not too expensive to buy a small plane.

"What good thing are you thinking of?" Li Weidong pinched Liu Jinhui's nose and said.

"Forty million US dollars? More than 300 million yuan? Is this a small plane?" Liu Jinhui knocked off Li Weidong's hand and asked a series of questions.

"It can only seat a dozen people. Compared with passenger planes, it can only be considered a small aircraft. After the Xinsheng Building is completed in a few years, I will buy two more helicopters and put them on the roof!" Li Weidong said grandly.

"Nonsense, why did you buy that thing? You don't need it every day!" Liu Jinhui rolled her eyes at Li Weidong.

"What do you know? For such a tall building, according to regulations, an apron must be built on the roof. We already have apron. If two planes are not parked, is it still called an apron?"

"If according to your statement, if there is a parking space, then a car is also required?" Liu Jinhui asked in analogy.

"Isn't that just like this? If you don't talk about other places, just ask us in Qizhou, which one has a parking space but not a car?" Li Weidong replied confidently, and also asked a rhetorical question.

Liu Jinhui wanted to say something, but suddenly felt that what Li Weidong said was completely correct. At this time, there seemed to be very few cars running on the street with parking spaces.

You are too reckless. You have to be careful when talking to Li Weidong, or he might get sidetracked by him. He is too good at changing the subject. Originally, they were discussing whether to take this EMBA class, but now they are talking about buying a plane.

"Do you really think this EMBA class is useful?" Liu Jinhui brought the topic back and continued to ask.

"It is helpful to open the book. I have learned about your professors in this period. There are many experts and scholars at home and abroad in the industry. Many have teaching experience in world-class universities, and they also have experience as senior consultants to large enterprises and governments!"

"For example, the professor Wu Jinglian who wrote you the letter of recommendation this time is not only a member of the government's think tank, but also a senior member of our company's advisory committee!"

According to regulations, studying for this EMBA requires the recommendation of two famous people in the industry. As for the degree of these two famous people, it is completely determined based on the student's own network.

After Liu Jinhui mentioned this matter to Li Weidong, Li Weidong asked someone to inquire about the registration status and found out that two recommenders were needed. This was too easy for Li Weidong.

I directly contacted two professors who worked in the college. Who else could be more effective than the recommendation from the school teachers? With these two letters of recommendation, Liu Jinhui had already been admitted. The rest was just a matter of going through the process.

Li Weidong continued: "Listening to their opinions and communicating with them face to face can improve your horizons, accumulate some connections, and make some friends!"

"You can go with peace of mind. Last time you gave up studying for graduate school because of Li Rui. If you don't study for this EMBA this time, think about it, how will you still have the energy when you get older?"

"And I also heard that the degree committee will award degrees to the MBA and EMBA classes of China Europe International Business School. When you graduate, you will also have a degree. A proper master's degree, the ceiling of our family's degree!"

They don't really need a degree, they just want to improve their academic qualifications.

"No matter what, I don't want to study to get this degree, I just want to improve myself!" Liu Jinhui said.

Then Liu Jinhui continued apologetically: "I'm usually busy with work, and you have to worry about my two children. I felt embarrassed at first, but now it's like this. Isn't it that I'm a little willful as a mother?"

"Mom, you are being too narrow-minded. I feel that I get along very harmoniously with my child. I am very comfortable and don't worry about it at all. Besides, this is my son and my daughter. Isn't it right for me to worry?"

The reason why Liu Jinhui didn't want to go was probably because of this incident. When she went back to her parents' home before the last Chinese New Year, although Liu Jinhui didn't fully agree with her mother's words, she at least listened to them.

People can't be too selfish, and they can't attribute her current achievements to her own efforts. This is unrealistic. She is just lucky enough to marry a person like Li Weidong, otherwise she really doesn't dare to think about what she will be like now.

Her former colleagues at the National Cotton Factory, only a few years later, have already undergone earth-shaking changes. They have been diverted, laid off, laid off, resigned, and retired.

It turned out that her director, because she was pregnant, told her to either resign or not have the child. Now she has retired from home, receiving a meager monthly subsidy, and waiting in agony to receive her pension at retirement age.

Even some of these laid-off employees still work in her company, but limited by their knowledge and business abilities that have been neglected in state-owned enterprises for many years, they can only do some basic work reluctantly.

She thought she would be better than these people, but it was hard to say how much better she would be. At most, she would just open an accounting firm like Qiao Rui to keep accounts for others, and she didn't have Qiao Rui's connections.

When Liu Jinhui heard what Li Weidong said, she put her mind at ease. Just as Li Weidong said, she only had four days of classes a month, so she treated it as a business trip to Shanghai.

After thinking about it, his eyebrows also relaxed, and he continued what Li Weidong said: "You said so, then you should worry more about your daughter's study!"

"She doesn't just go to kindergarten. Kindergarten is just for fun, no need to study!" Li Weidong said in surprise.

"She is in the senior class now and will go to elementary school in the fall. She should have learned something long ago!" Liu Jinhui said matter-of-factly.

Li Weidong said: "Which elementary school should she go to? Her birthday is September 15th. She can only go to kindergarten for one year in the morning. Why should she go to elementary school in advance? Doesn't it mean that she will go to the upper class for one more year?"

Liu Jinhui said: "You also said that you can learn something by playing in kindergarten every day. Now your daughter can't add and subtract within ten, and she doesn't know simple Chinese characters such as up, down, left, and right. How can this be done!"

Li Weidong shook his head and said helplessly: "Do we need to be so involved? I think it is better to follow the national regulations and wait until he is six years old next year before entering first grade. Besides, the child is still young, so it is normal not to know these things. When you were a child, you

Do you know these?"

Liu Jinhui said with a smile: "Don't tell me, although I can't remember it clearly, my mother said that I already knew hundreds of commonly used Chinese characters when I was five years old!"

Li Weidong was stunned and said with a sigh: "Most of our childhood memories are what our parents told us, so we can't count them. In addition, I went to elementary school at the age of eight, and it didn't affect my entrance to college!"

"So it takes you two years to pass the exam!" Liu Jinhui said with a smile.
