Rebirth: War on the Honest

Early the next morning, the full-time driver and assistant He Xuan came downstairs and drove Gu Yun to Yingshan County.

In mid-September, the renovated Paradise Middle School was declared completed, and today is the official opening of the school.

In order to smoothly advance the poverty alleviation project of Leland Middle School, Leland Technology offers high salaries, which not only attracts many local university graduates to return home to find jobs, but also teachers on the job from other counties in prefecture-level cities.

If there are suitable jobs in their hometown, who would be willing to leave their hometown?

After the new teacher team was formed, Paradise Technology selected a team with rich teaching experience and management experience from the headquarters, using the old-to-new model to allow teachers to get started quickly, and strive to create excellent results with high-quality teachers.

The first day of school is also the ribbon-cutting session for the completion of Paradise Middle School.

The county government attaches great importance to it. Not only did county leader Xing Yongan attend in person, but he also sent a letter to invite Gu Yun, CEO of Paradise Technology, to witness the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the completion of Yingshan County Paradise Middle School with the county team.

"Here, here are the materials for the speech later."

After arriving at Leyuan Middle School, He Xuan handed Gu Yun a folder for the meeting. Someone from the county had contacted her the day before the agenda, and Gu Yun's speech had already been prepared.

Gu Yun took the folder, got out of the car and walked into the auditorium of Paradise Middle School.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw many familiar eyes.

During the days of teaching, Gu Yun often unknowingly switched to the role of teacher when spending time with these children, and his sense of responsibility was subtly growing.

Shi Xiaolan, Hao Juanli, Yu Fenfang......

It seemed like all the children in my class were there.

After a holiday of basic learning, these children who were originally out of school went from being idle at home to returning to school, feeling a little less wild, and the desire for knowledge in their eyes was much brighter.

"Come on, Mr. Gu, long time no see."

Xing Yong'an and other leaders were waiting for Gu Yun at the door. They shook hands warmly. They walked to the stage of the auditorium, found their own seats and sat down.

"Xiaohua, see if the TV station and the media are ready. Once they are ready, we can start."

Hua Shiyuan, the village cadre of Yingshan County and the host of this ribbon-cutting ceremony, nodded, stretched out his hand to the media in the audience, and made an OK gesture.

The other party returned the same gesture to her, indicating that everything was ready.

"Hello everyone, leaders, teachers, guests, and classmates! Today, the Paradise Middle School, which was built with donations from Paradise Technology Co., Ltd., was completed and officially put into use. As a resident cadre here, I represent all the villagers of Paradise Village to express my gratitude to Paradise Middle School.

Warm congratulations on the completion! I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the investor, Gu Yun, President of Paradise Technology!”

The moderator Hua Shiyuan's melodious voice came from the microphone. The leaders and guests on the stage, as well as the three thousand teachers and students in the audience, all focused on her at the same time.

Professional, generous, elegant, classically beautiful.

This is the first impression that comes to the minds of the audience present.

Hua Shiyuan's upper body appeared in a custom-made formal shirt, but it was not a stiff fabric for shaping, but a silk satin that was soft, elegant, and in line with her character.

The bow under the shirt neutralizes the toughness and old-fashionedness of the workplace suit, and can also further enhance the aura of the host at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, making the eye-catching effect more prominent.

"The leaders attending this ribbon-cutting ceremony are... Now I announce that the first item of the ceremony will be carried out, raising the flag and playing music!"

The melodious march sounded from the center of the auditorium, and everyone present stood up to feel the solemnity and solemnity of this moment.

"For the second part of the ceremony, let us welcome with warm applause the speech by Gu Yun, CEO of Leland Technology and investor of Leland Middle School!"

As applause rang out, Hua Shiyuan gave up her position and looked at Gu Yun, who was standing up with a folder in hand.

Gu Yun walked near the microphone and spread out the prepared folder.

"As an education company, Paradise Technology has always adhered to its original intention and is proud of educating people. We have also been actively assuming social responsibilities and investing our kindness in charity education to create a better quality education for more students in need.

A learning environment and make due contributions to the education of our next generation..."

After reading this, Gu Yun suddenly closed the folder, and he had to say the rest himself.

Looking at the clear eyes in the audience, looking around the clean and tidy new school building, and recalling the stories Hua Shiyuan once told him, he was filled with emotion.

"I have a friend. She is an idealistic intellectual and a Communist Party member."

"She has a simple relationship with the people. She is a girl who grew up in the city and is also a young woman stationed in the village. She wants to serve this county, this mountain, and the out-of-school children in this mountain.

Weave a dream.”

"When she visited the middle school in the town, she found that there were always very few girls in the class, and some girls disappeared while reading. She went to the mountains and discovered the root of all this."

The audience was quiet.

"At first it was just an idea. She wanted to build a school that would be free for all students. This was undoubtedly a fantasy for the finances of the impoverished Yingshan County."

"She ran around and organized her alma mater to come to the county to teach. Teaching was not smooth sailing. The only people who took the initiative to help her were university teachers from her alma mater. And these children who entered school had relatively poor foundations and could not keep up.

The progress of high school studies, in the first semester, several teachers became discouraged and chose to leave, and several children were unwilling to continue studying. The town also suggested that she stop running the school and divert the students."

"But at this time, with the support of the county government, we reached a consensus on cooperation with Paradise Technology, and the plan to build the school ushered in a turning point. Her dream came true. With the support of party committees and governments at all levels and donations from all walks of life,

, Paradise Middle School is finally built.”

"Le Paradise Middle School is the first all-free high school in the country. Students are exempted from all fees while studying in school. I still remember the day I got the news, some parents burst into tears. For a family, the child can go to school because of the hard work of the whole family.

hope."

"This story sounds like an idealistic myth, and looks like the story of early Communists who ran night schools and farmers' training centers in mines, factories, and rural areas to enlighten the masses... But, this story

it is true."

Hua Shiyuan bit her lips, crossed her hands, and stared at Gu Yun's back.

Gu Yun paused and continued to speak.

"This friend of mine once described a scene to me."

"There was a little girl sitting on a high mountain, with a sickle and a basket beside her. She should have been sitting in the classroom, but she was staring into the distance in a daze. I can't forget this scene to this day."

"I asked her why the children were not in school at such a young age, and she answered me."

"Some never went back to school because their families were busy with the farm and needed help. Some never went back to school because they had no money to buy sanitary napkins. Some were arranged to get married early by their parents in exchange for betrothal gifts. Some were ignorant.

They go out to work and earn money for their families.”

"Children have no choice but to accept the fate. But in fact, 99% of these children have dreams and like to read."

"There was another personal experience that she will never forget. In the home where she once rented, a 15-year-old girl was forced to marry off for a bride price of 30,000 yuan. She found the girl's mother and asked her to marry her.

After a lot of work, my mother finally relented and said that she could go back to school only if there were free schools."

"From that time on, my friend made up her mind to save every child she could. She wanted the children in the mountains to go to the best schools."

Under the stage, Shi Xiaolan, standing in the corner, raised her sleeves and wiped her eyes.

The guest's speech continues.

"I admire and admire people like her very much. Getting closer to such a noble person is also the goal that I strive to pursue and yearn for throughout my life."

"So, I participated in volunteer teaching as a teacher during this summer vacation, and also came to the town to participate in part of the teaching work."

"Sometimes, I look into the children's eyes, and they admire us so much. Maybe my interactions with them have pushed away their yearning for the outside world... This may have an impact on them throughout their lives."

"At that moment, I thought that our words and deeds would sow a seed in the hearts of the children. This seed may have been silent, but at many forks in life, there is a little glimmer of light, a little faith, and a little yearning.

, a little bit of persistence can keep the journey going.”

"So, I want to say this to the kids."

Most of the three thousand students in the audience were wearing their own ordinary clothes with some patches on them. It was their first time to listen to a lecture in such an environment, and their expressions were extremely serious.

"You were born like a mountain, not a stream. Nature hits you with wind and snow, and you respond with songs."

"You were born to be a hero, not a mere mortal. Fate put you on a precipice, but you brought fragrance to the world."

"I wish you can walk out of the mountains and travel to all corners of human knowledge. Don't easily believe in the consequences of talent until the restrictions and oppression of origin are completely eliminated. I wish you can regain your due achievements in the fields occupied by capital.

.”

"I wish that you will not be objectified, dwarfed, vassalized, or petted, whether in popular culture or in intimate relationships, and that you will receive truly equal love and respect."

"I hope the children of Paradise Middle School can take their destiny into their own hands, be independent, equal, proud and free."

Gu Yun stood up, bowed slightly, and greeted the teachers and students in the audience.

In the auditorium, which was as quiet as a pin drop, there was thunderous applause for a moment.

No one would not be moved by such a sincere speech. Although most of the children in ragged clothes were underage, they had long known that the road to education was not easy. Many children clenched their fists and secretly had red eyes.

The applause was so warm and lasting.

The flashbulbs of the media in the audience were blaring non-stop, and well-informed reporters were rarely affected by news material, but this time, even they had some inexplicable emotions growing in their hearts.

As Gu Yun said, if a child has the opportunity to continue studying, it can change the destiny of three generations.

The combination of paradise technology and village cadres allows children to have lights in the distance, roads under their feet, and light in front of them. They can also see the wonderful world outside and a bright future in the mountains and valleys.

Such a story full of idealism is so powerful.

Gu Yun turned around and tried to find the location of the host. Ten seconds later, he picked up the microphone again and acted as temporary host.

"For the third item of the ceremony, let us welcome the leader of Yingshan County, Xing Yongan, to the stage to speak!"

Amidst the applause again, it was Xing Yongan's turn to take the stage. Gu Yun finally found the opportunity to come backstage, holding a pack of tissues in his hand, looking for the missing host.

Because Hua Shiyuan, who was listening silently on the side, was already in tears.

As expected, Hua Shiyuan was in the background.

The girl's back was facing the exit, her shoulders were shrugging, and her emotions seemed not to have calmed down yet.

Gu Yun stepped forward and gently hugged the senior sister from behind.

"What are you doing?"

Hua Shiyuan didn't look back, and he could tell it was Gu Yun from the footsteps and breath.

"Why are you crying? Are you moved by my speech? You are the goal that I pursue and yearn for in my life."

The air conditioner in the auditorium was turned on very low. Gu Yun stretched his head over and touched Hua Shiyuan's cold face. The tears on the girl's cheeks were still moist.

"Who was moved by you! I saw how hard it was for the children to finally learn, and what you said was so sensational, I couldn't help but cry."

Hua Shiyuan's voice still contained a cry, her tense body relaxed and she leaned into Gu Yun's arms.

After being a strong woman for so long, she could finally take a breath and take a break.

"Do you miss me?"

Gu Yun asked shamelessly. Although the relationship between the two has not been restored, the chat on WeChat has never stopped.

"In no mood."

Hua Shiyuan raised her fair neck, her bow dazzling in the light.

"But I miss you so much."

Gu Yun turned the girl's body around and met her eyes like autumn water.

Hua Shiyuan lowered her head, her beautiful eye circles still had a hint of red from crying, and she didn't want to raise her head to look at him.

"Okay, I'm going to take the stage. The leader's speech is almost over."

Seeing that if he didn't push Gu Yun away, this guy would act like a hooligan, Hua Shiyuan quickly refused.

Xing Yongan's speech was written by her herself. It was coming to an end and she had to continue hosting.

"Yuanyuan, can I wait for you to have dinner together tonight?"

"Besides, the county will definitely make arrangements for you tonight."

"What I mean is that after socializing, let's have a late-night snack, chat, and find out what's good to eat with those old men."

Gu Yun stalked and beat him.

"...Okay, I'll think about it."

Hua Shiyuan turned around, took two quick steps, and returned to the stage to host.

"Subsequently, we ushered in the exciting ribbon-cutting ceremony of Yingshan County Leyuan Middle School. The ribbon-cutting guests officially cut the ribbon for Leyuan Middle School, witnessing this important historical moment belonging to Leyuan Middle School and opening a new chapter for the school's teaching career!

"
