Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

August 15th and 16th, 1981 were the days for students of Yulin Institute of Technology to register, and then they would conduct military training for half a month. Bao Zixuan also referred to the admission process of Huaxia University in later generations and made some improvements to it.

It can be said that the students and parents who came to Yulin Institute of Technology today were shocked by Bao Zixuan's generosity. They didn't charge a penny in tuition fees. I also sent them so many things, but many people couldn’t understand what they were trying to do. Could there be some conspiracy in this? However, as one of the world's top richest men, Bao Zixuan didn't seem like someone who cheated them of their little money. Maybe they are not doing it for money at all, they may have a bigger purpose, maybe they are doing it for fame.

Although many students want to go to bed early, they still suffer from insomnia. The items given to them when they registered were too shocking. Those who could buy them all would be considered wealthy in any country, but here it was just the most basic equipment for a student.

Monday, August 17, 1981. Today is the first day of formal military training at Yulin Institute of Technology, and it is also an extremely important day for all students. Today they were required to wear military training uniforms and bring their walkman and tapes to the Flag Square to gather. This is not open yet, but no one knows the specific use of the open space seen on the map.

Not only the students, but also Romansky and Martin Grieve, the school's chief architects, didn't understand why Bao Zixuan left this large open space. After all, it covers an area of ​​120 acres, which is as big as 11 football fields. It's really a waste of space, mainly because this is the most central location of the school.

The entire flag square is surrounded by more than 200 poles except for a rostrum in the center. But it feels a bit strange to have so many flagpoles together. After all, the distance between the flagpoles is not the same, as if they are standing there randomly.

When the students who came to Flag Square saw how big the entire venue was, they felt that this must be a place where the school organizes rallies and large-scale activities. You can't feel how big it is on the map. Only by being there can you appreciate the emptiness here.

Everyone was very curious to see Principal Bao Zixuan standing on the central podium, and the security personnel had arranged for them to gather where they should be.

After seeing everyone standing, Bao Zixuan said into the microphone: "Hello, classmates! I am Bao Zixuan, and I am also your principal. Whether you admit it or not, I am your principal who is a few years older than you. If you want to successfully graduate from Yulin Institute of Technology, you must ask for my signature."

"There is only one purpose for calling you here this morning, to raise the flag of your country. I have more than 200 flagpoles here, and my dream is to raise the flags of all countries in the world here. As long as the United Nations We will prepare a national flag for the students of the country we recognize. Whether you are a person or a group of people, I will treat you equally."

"And in order for everyone not to disturb each other, we prepared a cassette tape when giving out Walkmans to the students. There is only one song on the front and back of this cassette, and that is the national anthem of your country."

"From now on, all students and teachers will come here every Monday morning to put on headphones, listen to the national anthem, and raise the national flag of their country. Then on Friday afternoon, the students who raised the national flag on Monday morning will lower their national flag, and the process will continue on Monday. use."

"It would be a tragedy for education if Yulin Institute of Technology produces students who don't even love their own country. The university should not only teach students knowledge, but also let everyone understand the principles of life."

"Yulin Institute of Technology will become a culturally diverse and all-inclusive university in the future. Everyone has patriotic rights and obligations. If that student dares to damage the flags of other countries, he will be directly expelled as soon as he is discovered. And it is useless to plead for mercy."

"People must respect each other, and classmates must be friendly to each other. Next, you will select two representatives from each country to raise the national flag for the first time."

The students were all excited. No one expected that the school would use such a large venue just for raising the national flag. Is the principal crazy, or is his head squeezed by the door.

But these have nothing to do with them, since they are very excited to be able to raise the flag of their country. Everyone started to prepare according to Bao Zixuan's wishes.

But there are exceptions. Trido-Kamen is a young man from Israel. After graduating from high school, he came to Xiangjiang to travel. His family was relatively wealthy, and he thought about spending some money to study at a university in the United States. Otherwise, he might have to return to China to serve in the military.

It was just in time for the enrollment of Yulin Institute of Technology. The most important thing was that the professor who led the enrollment that day could speak Hebrew. Let him understand that this school was originally founded by Bao Zixuan, so it shouldn't be too bad.

After arriving at the school, he was not disappointed, but he saw so many Middle Easterners coming here to study. It made him feel out of place, wondering whether this place was suitable for him.

Today I saw all the classmates standing under the flagpole in a group, and he was the only one standing there alone. It can be said that he was the loneliest at this time. For a young man, this was a form of rejection in disguise.

After Bao Zixuan saw Trido-Carmen's dilemma, he walked up to him and said, "Trido, can I call you this!"

When he heard someone greeting him in Hebrew, Trido-Carmen thought he was from his hometown. After all, what the other person said was so accurate and much better than the professor who led the recruitment team that day. But when he looked back, he saw that it was the principal Bao Zixuan, but he quickly reacted and said: "Of course, this is my honor, Mr. Principal."

Bao Zixuan: "Are you feeling lonely because you are the only Israeli student in the school? At the same time, you are worried about raising the flag. But I think this is a good time for you to show off. I was the only student from Xiangjiang to study in the UK. I am studying science and engineering, and many people think it will be difficult for me to find a job when I return to Hong Kong."

"Then I will do everything myself. If there is no technology company in Hong Kong, I will create my own technology company. I will give myself employment opportunities. Raising the flag on behalf of a country is a huge honor in itself. You must be strong at this time. . There are other students who can shirk and rely on, but the fact that the Israeli flag was not raised that day must be your responsibility. This is your responsibility as a man. Don’t let your family and friends down."

After Bao Zixuan left, Trido-Carmen straightened the Israeli flag with determined eyes. He walked straight to the flagpole that belonged to him. For the next year, people saw a Jewish guy raising the Israeli flag every Monday, rain or shine, and taking it back down on Friday night. A year has never stopped, just like Bao Zixuan, there are others who can rely on, and he has no right to shirk.

His deeds have also spread back to Israel, causing many Israeli young people to want to apply for Yulin Institute of Technology, just to help fulfill their mission.

Thirty years later, Trido-Carmen, who has become the Minister of Education, said in an interview with reporters. After Principal Bao Zixuan talked to him, he made him understand that this was a task that he must complete, even if he sacrificed his life. A nation and a country must have their own beliefs, and only through small things can the people know why they do what they do.

At nine o'clock in the morning, 15 national flags were raised in the square at the same time. Everyone was listening to the national anthem of their homeland on headphones and watching the national flag rise.

The same goes for Bao Zixuan. The moment he saw the Chinese flag rising, his heart could not calm down. He understood that only in this way would the British agree to let the Chinese flag be raised at Yulin Institute of Technology before the return. If this activity was stopped now, more than a dozen countries around the world would be offended.

Not just students, professors are also involved. The flag-raising ceremony of Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of Technology was later attended by many heads of government who visited Xiangjiang. After all, this is the only university in the world that exists.

Bao Zixuan also wants to use this method to let more people see the inclusiveness of Yulin Institute of Technology, and will never persuade these students not to return to their country to serve and be filial to their parents, so that parents from all over the world can send their children to the school with confidence.

In fact, he has a big plan to let more people come here to study. Ideas can spread throughout the school while students are in school. After all cultures are gathered together, students can choose the learning method that best suits them, and it can also form a collision between multiple cultures, thereby promoting the learning atmosphere and scientific research atmosphere of the entire school.
