Chapter 871: Public to Private
Alvin looked out on the windowsill of his office, where a crowd of bored people gathered around the entrance of the school, cheering for the 72 children who were taking exams.
He doesn't know if there's anything else like that elsewhere in the United States, where an exam that defines the results of the past 12 years of hard work and, incidentally, determines the future is so important in Hell's Kitchen.
And it seems so important that a lot of people who are not parents of children come here, and some of them are not even from Hell's Kitchen.
A handful of young staff members sent by the Ministry of Education to supervise the examination room had been patrolling the examination room, and it seemed that the high-ranking old men had no idea that a community school in Hell's Kitchen could produce bright flowers, and perhaps they had other ideas.
Regardless, their actions infuriated Cage Sr., who was furious and beat an eyed Ministry of Education worker with a cane, but did not stop the rest of the people from continuing to hold their posts.
Alvin stopped the anger of Cage Sr., a respectable old man who felt insulted, and the Ministry of Education was expressing their distrust of the community school in a silent protest.
In fact, from the day Alvin became the principal of the community school, he and the Ministry of Education Liangzi have been married.
Assault on officials of the Ministry of Education, a deputy minister of the Ministry of Education who was stripped naked and lost a mouth full of teeth in Hell's Kitchen.
The slick nature of Vice Chancellor Nelson, with the help of Alvin's might, was able to obtain only the most basic budget from the Department of Education and the state government.
In fact, the main reason for all this is that this community school is challenging tradition, and the changes here are unacceptable to many people.
And so from the first minute of the change, complaints poured like snowflakes into any possible channel.
The only reason Alvin made Olivia secretary in the first place was because she could disgust people who called to get in trouble with expletives.
Perhaps some of the earliest complaints and accusations were really well-intentioned, and a group of elites who had never experienced "happy education" felt that this should be the childhood life that children should have.
After all, that's free, isn't it? What more do you want? Knowledge is also valuable, and it is a lot of money!
Now that a small, poor community school is teaching a bunch of kids from the bottom on the model of a private school, and they won brilliantly last year, what do you make people in other places think?
President Ellis has given the men the courage to get the official principalship that Alvin has earned from the Department of Education and the state government, and they think that if you care about it, you will play by our rules of the game.
Glancing back at angry old Cage, Alvin smiled and said, "What's wrong with you?" What's wrong with being a bit harsh in the invigilation, you don't have confidence in the students you're teaching? β
Cage Sr. angrily slapped Alvin's desk and shouted, "They're humiliating me, and those bitches are questioning our character."
If this year's kids don't do as well as last year, then we're going to be questioned, and even last year's and future kids. β
Alvin turned around and spread his hands with a smile, and said, "You should be proud, you forced those old men to be in a hurry." β
As he spoke, Alvin pointed to the letter of appointment to the principal that had been framed and hung on the wall, and said with a smile: "I kind of regret that I took this, maybe they wouldn't dare to do it without this."
I put myself in this system, and we have to play by the established rules of the game.
I believe in those kids, old man, it's not even a test for them! β
Cage Sr. circled around Alvin's desk like an enraged lion, and after a few minutes he calmed down a little, then looked at Alvin and said, "What are you going to do?" If we don't do anything, they will behave more excessively in the future. β
Alvin smiled and raised his phone and said, "Just now, a well-known American education expert called my phone.
He wanted to convince me to follow the American tradition of education and to carry on the 'happy education'.
His words sound very convincing, because poor children need a 'happy' childhood all the more......"
"Fart......" Cage Sr. roared and slapped the desk hard, looked at Alvin with red eyes, and shouted angrily: "They're all bastards raised by a bunch of bitches, this is a fucking conspiracy, conspiracy~."
These are all scams, and 'Happy Education' is a fucking scam.
Those bastards should all go to the gallows......"
Saying that, Old Cage looked at Alvin with a strange expression, and said a little anxiously: "What are you going to do?" We must not be impulsive, and they must not do anything to us? β
At this time, the elder Cage also noticed Alvin's abnormality, and his irritable personality began to worry about what Alvin would do, and the consequences would be difficult to predict.
Alvin smiled and spread his hands and said, "I'm not God, since those people think I'm not doing it right, why should I insist."
It is said that many communities have been using us as an example since last year to demand that the state government reform the education system, and several legislators are campaigning for this.
Obviously, the pressure created by those people is making it impossible for the Ministry of Education or some other department to sit still. β
Saying that, Alvin spread his hands and said with a smile: "But the current situation looks like we have become targets."
Old man, if the top brass of this country don't want to see community schools go to glory......"
Old Cage looked at Alvin with a strange expression in horror, he anxiously grabbed Alvin's hand and shouted, "What are you going to do?" You can't give up, you're the soul here!
Think about those kids, Alvin, think about those kids......
I'm going to call everyone I know, and I'm going to make those bitches look good, but you can't give up! β
Alvin faced the frightened old Cage, he was suddenly very moved to hug the old man, and said with a smile: "What are you thinking?" I promise you to erect a bronze statue for you......"
As he spoke, Alvin turned around and pointed to an intersection 40 meters inward from the entrance of the school's main entrance, and said with a smile: "Right there, you said you were going to bury your ashes underneath and watch this school go through for a long time."
I remember, I promised you, I would do it......"
Cage Sr. clutched his chest and gasped a few times, then he still looked at Alvin uncomfortably and asked, "Then what did you mean by what you just said?" β
Alvin shook his head with a smile, looked at old Cage with some helplessness and said, "In the future, we may not have funding from the state government, do you say that we can rely on our own ability to keep this school running?" β
Old Cage was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean by this, the school has withdrawn from the public system?" Those bitches kicked us out because we were doing so well? β
Alvin spread his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "To be exact, I asked for it myself, Raymond has already gone to that Donald with my check and tomahawk??" Depp too.
I decided to buy the land and all the buildings on it myself, on the condition that the children of Hell's Kitchen would receive a free education in the future.
It's charity, and the IRS doesn't even want to get a fucking penny of taxes from here. β
Saying that, Alvin turned to look outside the bustling school gate, and said a little bitterly: "In the past, I have not made up my mind, because the school is not ready to solve the funding problem on its own.
We can't always rely on Stark and Osborne......
But now that things have come to this, why should we be patient?
I was sick of the chatter of those guys, who did nothing but raise Olivia's swear language level to level ten.
Don't look down on my old man, I don't like those strange struggles, I can only carry this little piece of world on my shoulders......"
After hearing this, the old Cage glared at Alvin with a sad expression, he suddenly jumped up and laughed and shook Alvin's shoulder vigorously, and said, "This is good news, why should you be upset?"
What you should be thinking about now is coming up with a resounding name for your community school, not worrying about his survival after he leaves the public system. β
Saying that, old Cage happily spun around in place like a fool, and then suddenly rubbed his hands and looked at Alvin, and said, "Remember that the name of the school must have my name in it, just a letter of my surname, 'K', how about it?"
Hah, that's the best news I've heard this year, we didn't even have a decent name in the past.
No, I'm going to have to tell Wilson the news, and hopefully the old thing's heart will hold on. β
Alvin looked at old Cage who turned around and ran out of the office, looked at Olivia sitting in the corner a little strangely, and said, "What's wrong?" In the future, we will have to earn our own money to live, and this old thing is still so happy? β
Olivia rubbed her hands a little nervously, looked at Alvin and said, "Boss, do you still need me?" In the future, it is estimated that no one will call to ask for trouble! β
Alvin was stunned for a moment, smiled and pulled the obese Olivia up and hugged her, and said: "You are the best secretary I have ever seen, we will be a noble school in the future, there must be a lot of complaints, do you want Manhattan Tomahawk to swear with those bastards?" β
Saying that, Alvin wiped the lipstick mark made by Olivia on his face, and said with a smile: "Besides, besides you, I don't dare to use other girls, how stupid should a principal be to find a man to be his secretary?" β
Just as Olivia was moved to tears and wanted to continue harassing Alvin, the elder Cage pulled Professor Wilson and barged in.
The old man pushed away the fat Olivia with a look of disgust, and said to Alvin: "I discussed with Wilson, if the school is not funded, we can take out some of the money and donate it to the school."
My stock takes a month to process, and Wilson has two paintings of CΓ©zanne that should fetch good prices at the summer auction. β
Alvin frowned and looked at Cage Sr., then at Professor Wilson, and said, "What are you guys doing here?" The school is not short of money for the time being, and a large part of the donations from the two tycoons have not been used up! β
Old Cage glared at Alvin with disdain and said, "Don't you need money to buy a school?" This is New York, how much does it cost to add a building to such a large land?
I don't think the money at the school is enough, and many of my students work in banks, and I can find some loans from them.
Don't be idle, go and have fun with Stark and Osborne, and you can't get involved in school affairs......"
Alvin's nose was crooked when he heard it, and he became a publicist together? Is it possible to give up the dignity of the principal for a little money?
Looking at the old Cage Cage's high-spirited old face, Alvin said unhappily: "You should keep your coffin for yourself, and I won't stop you from donating it to the school when you die."
Now we have a lot of money, and the price of buying this place is not high......"
Professor Wilson listened, pulled the anxious old Cage, and said with a smile: "Alvin has his plans, we listen to him." β
Saying that, Professor Wilson looked at Alvin and said with a smile, "Can you tell us how much it spent?"
The school's annual budget is a huge amount of money, and we have to think not only about the present, but also about the future. β
Alvin shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said with a smile: "My check was applied for a long time ago, and the maximum amount is only 1,000 yuan, so I brought my tomahawk over to negotiate."
I reckon Raymond has a way of convincing Donald?? Depp, that guy is actually very easy to deal with except for his stupid brain and poor character.
I like him! β
