In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

"Ahem, well, um!"

Zhao Zhongxin was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say, while Qi Tongwei burst into laughter!

"Go on, Shin-chan!"

Gao Yuliang waved his hand!

"Oh, you mean Xiao Liu watched the game at my house last time, saying that since we've lost to Vietnam, we'll lose to Thailand next? I was thinking, why don't we organize our own football tournament? I want to show those national team players that if you can't play well, there are plenty of people who can replace you. And look, our GDP has gone up, and our football level has improved too. Teacher Gao, we're going to the No. 1 Middle School in the city tomorrow to select students, why don't you come along and take a look!"

Zhao Zhongxin laughed, and Gao Yuliang nodded in agreement, but then suddenly thought of something else!

"Shin-chan, why didn't you look for college students? High school students only have five months until the college entrance exam! We can't let that interfere with their studies!"

"No, Secretary Gao, our team from Zhaoyuan consists of students with below-average grades. There are so many universities in Handong. The boss asked each school to send one spot. The selection process only lasts one month. If they are selected, they are guaranteed at least a second-tier university. If they are not selected, it doesn't matter. One month won't affect their chances of getting into any university!"

Liu Kun said with a smile, but he actually had something else to say: a month might be very important for those who can study, but for those who can't study, a month is just thirty days of blinking!

Didn't Douyin report several cases last year of students forgetting their exam admission tickets and being escorted to school by traffic police? To be honest, Liu Kun said...

You guys forget to bring your ID cards and admission tickets for the college entrance exam? Are you even here to study? If this were his son, Liu Kun would say, "You traffic police should just shoot him dead! I don't have a son like that!"

I can forgive you for not bringing your exam admission tickets now, and I won't say anything. But in two years, if you're delivering my takeout and you're late, my punctuality buddy won't be so lenient with you!

If you don't bring your exam admission ticket or ID card to the college entrance exam, why would the traffic police take you to the exam site? It would be much better to just go to the nearest electronics factory and save yourself a few years of detours!

Gao Yuliang raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Ever since he taught his grandchildren, he seemed to understand that the difference between people might be even greater than the difference between humans and monkeys. However, Gao Yuliang was still unconvinced and decided to try again! He wanted to give his grandson a proper lesson! At least he should get into a second-tier university based on his own ability. Although his current status allowed him to be specially admitted by all universities, getting into a second-tier university was Gao Yuliang's last act of defiance! You can go with your status, but you at least have to get into a second-tier university!

The next day, at the entrance of No. 1 Middle School, Zhao Zhongxin's car had already driven into the school. The principal was drinking tea in his office! The dean of studies rushed in to report!

"Principal, Principal, the governor's car has pulled into the school!"

"Pfft! Wait, there was no notification! Come on, let's go downstairs! We're going to the selection site!"

The principal reacted quickly, now he had to pretend to be very interested in the selection! Then he rushed downstairs, with the dean of students following behind! He ran at such a speed that he didn't care if he got hit by a car!

And so, the principal arrived two minutes earlier than Zhao Zhongxin. The principal's eyes were fixed on the door. When he saw Zhao Zhongxin and Gao Yuliang walk in side by side, the principal, barely suppressing his panting from running, said!

"Governor, you've arrived! No, no, Secretary Gao!"

The principal was quite clever; he was also a graduate of Han University. He first called out "Teacher Gao," then pretended to realize what was happening and called out "Secretary Gao!"

"Yao, Yao Yiming, right!"

Gao Yuliang looked at it for a long time and then remembered the student's name!

"Secretary Gao, you still remember me!"

Principal Yao was genuinely moved. Such an important person still remembered him and his former students!

"Haha, of course! I remember almost all my students. I recall you have a younger brother named Yao Yifan, which means 'to make a name for oneself and to have a smooth journey.' It's a very distinctive name!"

Gao Yuliang laughed and patted the student on the shoulder! This was the last class he taught; they hadn't graduated yet when Gao Yuliang entered politics!

"Secretary Gao! I..."

Principal Yao blinked as if he wanted to say something, but Gao Yuliang waved his hand!

"Hey, why are you calling me 'Secretary'? I'm not your secretary, I'm the secretary from the next province. Just call me Teacher Gao!"

"This is... Teacher Gao! Long time no see! Your student greets you, teacher!"

The principal was quite shrewd; he bowed deeply to Gao Yuliang, who then helped him up.

Zhao Zhongxin couldn't help but shake his head. Professor Gao Yuliang could have students in any position or department at Handong University. If Zhao Lichun had given him a push back then, Handong University would have been more stable under Gao Yuliang than under Zhao Lichun. The reason is simple: having connections makes things easier. There are unofficial members of the Handong University faction everywhere!

"Junior Yao is quite impressive, personally overseeing the selection process here!"

Zhao Zhongxin opened his mouth with a smile!

"Yes, Governor, of course! We must do our best to handle the tasks assigned to us by the provincial government. Besides, it's not a bad thing; if they're selected, they can go to university! We, as teachers, must take it to heart!"

Principal Yao was still addressing the provincial governor, not Zhao Zhongxin as "junior brother" and he wouldn't immediately call him "senior brother." When someone in a higher position calls you "junior brother," it's just politeness, out of respect for Teacher Gao. If you, as someone in a lower position, actually call him that, you're just being disrespectful!

Gao Yuliang was very satisfied with these words. Look, look, this is his student. He is just an ordinary student, but he is so conscientious in doing things!

Zhao Zhongxin nodded and said with a smile!

"Come on, show us around the selection process!"

"Okay, okay, Professor Gao, Governor, Director Liu, Director He (He Fuyun, Gao Yuliang's secretary), distinguished leaders! This way, please!"

Principal Yao was bowing and scraping to Gao Yuliang, Zhao Zhongxin, and the others, his mouth practically stretched to his ears! After all, he held the lowest rank here, merely a high-ranking deputy director!

Zhao Zhongxin and Gao Yuliang didn't notice anything either, but Liu Kun did! In the dead of winter, your forehead is sweaty and you're slightly out of breath, clearly you just ran over. However, he didn't say much. After all, his boss and Lao Gao were quite happy, so why should he be the bad guy? Besides, this guy is quite shrewd!

Being good at flattery is your skill, but the most foolish person is the one who takes advantage of others' misfortunes! Everyone likes a smart person!
