Everything is progressing in an orderly manner according to the plan discussed by Chu Tianshu and Wei Shijie.

On Thursday afternoon, Chu Tianshu used a landline to call the office of Yuan Zhichao, the municipal education director, cordially invited him to have dinner, and said bluntly that he had something to ask Director Yuan for help.

With the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination coming soon, there are so many people who want to invite Yuan Zhichao to dinner. His principle is to push if he can, and hide if he can.

These days, it feels uncomfortable to be pursued by others.

In order for their children to go to school, parents treat them to meals, give money and gifts, build relationships, block the door, approve notes, say hello, etc., etc., and they use all kinds of methods. Behind the seemingly beautiful scene, Yuan Zhichao is actually deeply hurt.

brain.

Most of the people who can be directly approached by the Municipal Education Director are people with some background and connections. The knowledge and attention involved in helping someone or not is too great.

This time last year, Yuan Zhichao encountered an embarrassment.

A vice president of Qingtian Real Estate asked a student to go to Guangming Middle School for help. Yuan Zhichao didn't take it to heart at the time, but he didn't expect that the matter would become entangled.

It involved the then mayor and now the municipal Party committee secretary Zhu Minwen.

Later, although Yuan Zhichao forced Niu Xiangqian, the principal of Guangming Middle School, to squeeze out a self-funded quota for this student, he could vaguely feel that Zhu Minwen had an opinion about him.

Therefore, Yuan Zhichao has become more cautious in handling such matters this year. The measures he has taken are to hide away if he can't afford to offend him, and try not to have contact with the client.

If Chu Tianshu was just the deputy director of the municipal government office, Yuan Zhichao might have found an excuse to avoid seeing him, because if Chu Tianshu invited him to dinner, it was obvious that he would go to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason.

However, Chu Tianshu also serves as the secretary of Executive Vice Mayor Yi Haitao, and the personnel system reform is about to begin. If Zhu Minwen intends to change his position, he has to count on Yi Haitao to help him.

Therefore, Yuan Zhichao could find a way to decline the invitation from others, but Chu Tianshu still had to eat the meal.

The dinner time was set at six o'clock in the evening, and the location was a relatively secret private restaurant. In addition to the guests and hosts, there were also Yuan Zhichao's wife and daughter, as well as their friends Wei Shijie and Diudiu.

After get off work, Chu Tianshu drove to the parking lot of a private restaurant. The first thing he saw was Wei Shijie's newly purchased Mercedes-Benz.

It can be said that Wei Shijie is really not easy. In just a few days, by applying for a driver's license for Yuan Zhichao's daughter, he has become quite familiar with his wife and daughter.

When Chu Tianshu was about to park the car, he saw Wei Shijie standing on the field, directing the Mercedes-Benz to park in the parking space. The driver was a little girl who looked like a middle school student. She was driving forward, turning, and reversing. At first glance, she was a novice, and she was cautious.

He hit the ground several times, but the Mercedes-Benz was still not backed into it.

Chu Tianshu looked through the car window from a distance at the little girl wearing a white sportswear with a red pattern. She stuck her head out and chatted with Wei Shijie. Her face was red because of nervousness, but she still looked innocent.

Very pure and cute.

Sitting in the passenger seat is Famous Leg Diudiu.

Wei Shijie and Diudiu got in and out of the car together, instructing the little girl little by little, and finally backed the car into the parking space for the fourth time. The little girl got out of the car and checked that it was parked properly.

The Mercedes-Benz was dancing and cheering with excitement.

As soon as Chu Tianshu parked the car, Yuan Zhichao's car also arrived.

Wei Shijie hurriedly stepped forward and opened the passenger door.

The one who came down was Yuan Zhichao's wife. Wei Shijie called her "Sister-in-law" warmly and stretched out his hand to shake hands with her.

Diudiu also walked to Mrs. Yuan, held her arm, greeted and talked cordially.

The little girl ran to the other side and forced Yuan Zhichao to get out of the car. She got in by herself and insisted on helping park the car into the parking space despite her father's obstruction.

Yuan Zhichao was worried and asked with great concern: "Yuanyuan, can you do it?"

Yuanyuan said proudly: "Dad, you don't trust people too much. I was the one who parked Uncle Wei's car. Can you see if it's parked well?"

Yuan Zhichao went to see Wei Shijie.

Wei Shijie smiled, then ran to the parking space and directed Yuanyuan to reverse the car into the garage.

This time, Yuanyuan was much more skilled.

Firstly, with the previous experience, and secondly, I was driving a bus from the Education Bureau, so I became a lot more courageous. I backed the car into the parking space with just one move. Although it was a little off, Yuan Zhichao looked at it and nodded with a smile.

.

Chu Tianshu came over and shook hands with Yuan Zhichao.

Yuan Zhichao introduced his wife and daughter to Chu Tianshu.

After Chu Tianshu greeted and shook hands with Mrs. Yuan, he then magically pulled out a fluffy cartoon cat from behind, causing Yuanyuan to scream. Her biggest hobby is collecting stuffed toys, and she has accumulated more than a dozen.

Full of bedside and desk.

Diudiu had already figured this out. The cartoon cat he went to buy in person before coming here was exactly the one that Yuanyuan didn't have in her bedroom. As soon as Chu Tianshu took it out, he naturally won Yuanyuan's liking.

Wei Shijie led the way to private room No. 5 of the private restaurant. It is located in the southwest corner of the restaurant. The environment is spacious and clean. Compared with ordinary hotels and restaurants, the dishes are not only exquisite, but the biggest feature is the quietness.

Generally speaking, family members are not expected to attend this type of dinner, which is similar to a business event.

Yuan Zhichao brought his wife and daughter. Of course, Wei Shijie and Diudiu had done a good job in public relations. More importantly, it was a way to express intimacy with Chu Tianshu, and it also changed the nature of the dinner into

Had a private dinner.

Don’t drink while driving, and don’t drive after drinking.

Under the general situation of Qingyuan City carrying out comprehensive public security rectification operations, family members attended again. After politely declining, the host and guest agreed to only talk about feelings and not drink.

While eating and chatting, the six people naturally divided into two groups: men and women.

Chu Tianshu, Yuan Zhichao and Wei Shijie were talking about national and government affairs, while Mrs. Yuan, Yuanyuan and Diudiu were talking about family and life trivial matters. They were all interested in each other and did not interfere with each other.

Chu Tianshu got straight to the point and asked Yuan Zhichao to help resolve Wan Guoliang's son's request to attend Guangming Middle School.

Wan Guoliang was Yi Haitao's full-time driver, and Chu Tianshu came forward to request the request. It seemed to Yuan Zhichao that there was some intention from the leader in it. He also heard that the test scores of the candidates were pretty good and it must not be too difficult, so he agreed wholeheartedly.

I have prioritized this matter in my heart and cannot make the mistake of inadvertently offending the leader last year.

After talking about business and continuing to chat, Yuan Zhichao deliberately turned the topic to the reform of government personnel work and asked about the principles and directions for the next step of streamlining and adjusting government agencies. He just wanted to test his tone and see if his position as director of education would be adjusted.

among the list.

Chu Tianshu said: "The city leaders are very concerned about the serious shortage of educational resources in our city. Secretary Zhu and Mayor Yi have also mentioned on various occasions the need to pay attention to people's livelihood and create a civilized Qingyuan. In fact, whether it is economic development or civilization construction,

, the key lies in how to improve the quality of the general public and solve problems that common people are concerned about."

Yuan Zhichao said in embarrassment: "To completely solve the problem of difficulty in entering a higher education that is a common concern among ordinary people depends on the adjustment of national education policies and guidance. At present, our education department is still unable to do so."

Chu Tianshu said: "Yuan Bureau, if you want to completely change the problem of difficulty in entering higher education under the existing education system, it is indeed not something that any city, department or individual can solve. However, Secretary Zhu and Mayor Yi both believe that

, as an education department, we can’t just sit back and do nothing, right?”

To an official, doing nothing is almost synonymous with incompetence!

Yuan Zhichao couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he heard Chu Tianshu's tone of conveying the leadership's instructions. He quickly asked: "Director Chu, you are by the leader's side and you must have a thorough understanding of the leader's spirit. Can you help me analyze it?

Which direction can be used as a breakthrough for this bottleneck?"

Chu Tianshu said: "Bureau Yuan, you are an education expert in our city. As an outsider, I have an immature idea. I don't know if it is suitable?"

"Suitable, suitable, definitely suitable." Yuan Zhichao glanced at his wife and daughter, who were chatting animatedly with Diudiu, to see if they had noticed that his flattery was a bit too much. He then said: "Brother, yes

The truth is, the authorities are blind to the onlookers."

"Director Yuan, as far as I know, it is indeed not a day's work to completely change the problem of difficulty in entering higher education. The leaders also have a clear understanding of this. Therefore, I personally think that if you want to make a difference, can you start from

How about thinking from the perspective of mitigation and improvement?”

"Oh, why don't I think so." Yuan Zhichao sighed.

As a veteran comrade who has been engaged in education management for 20 years, if you still can't see this, then you really are not worthy of being the director of education.

He then complained: "Brother, you know that our city's high-quality education resources are limited, such as Lantian Kindergarten, Municipal Experimental Primary School, Guangming Middle School, etc., which are already overcrowded. Take Guangming Middle School as an example, it originally seats 50 people

The classroom is now packed with 60 students. Parents who can and can’t get in have strong opinions. The principal and teachers are also complaining. All of this is easy to say. What I am most worried about is the continued expansion of enrollment to ensure the safety of students.

The hidden dangers caused by management, once an accident occurs, the consequences will be disastrous."

Yuan Zhichao's worries are not unreasonable.

If they just do nothing, the most they can do is to move seats and change places. If there are casualties among primary and secondary school students, then the black gauze hat on his head will not be saved. If he doesn't do it well, he may be held legally responsible. This is too much of a loss.

Last year, the girls' toilets built in the early stages of the city's experimental primary school were overwhelmed. During the ten-minute break between classes, girls queued up to go to the toilets, causing a stampede, which almost led to a catastrophe. Fortunately, it was handled properly and no negative impact was caused.
