20 years of teaching

Chapter 333 To develop the economy, education must come first

……

After listening to Lin Feifan's introduction to the future development plan of Jinghu Junior High School, Deputy County Mayor Zhou said: "Your idea is very bold, very advanced, and very attractive! But is it necessary? A rural junior high school needs so many students. What is the land for? How can there be so much money to build a house? Even if you have money, it would be a waste to make it. I heard that the only teaching building in your school is not full of children until now."

Lin Feifei smiled slightly, and said, "Major Zhou, across the river from Lingnan Town is Jiulong City in Jiangyin Province, right?"

"That's right, all three-year-olds in Linjiang County know about it," said Deputy County Mayor Zhou.

Lin Feifei turned his face to the sky, as if he was talking to himself: "In that section of the Yangtze River, the river water is deeper than other areas, so it is very suitable for a port, so the river bank on the other side of Kowloon City has built the largest wharf in the entire south bank of the Yangtze River. The throughput ranks first in China. The natural conditions on the north bank of the Yangtze River are better than those in the south of the Yangtze River, but our side is a backward rural area, while the other side is a developed city. There is a world of difference between the south and the north!"

These words sounded so familiar, Deputy Magistrate Zhou frowned and thought for a while, remembering that this was what he had said to Lin Feifan on the river dam during the flood fighting.

After rambling a few words, Lin Feifan remembered it so clearly!Deputy county magistrate Zhou couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment...

Lin Feifei continued: "You also said that one day Linjiang County will build a port like the opposite bank, and build high-rise buildings along the river, and develop it into a developed Yangtze River port city, which is not inferior to the opposite bank. "

Deputy Magistrate Zhou said cheerfully: "Yes, that's what I said! Teacher Lin has a really good memory!"

"When Lingnan Town develops into a developed city like Kowloon City on the other side of the river." Lin Feifei knocked on the sketch on the table and smiled, "Tell me, is the campus of Jinghu Junior High School so big, is it a waste?"

Deputy Magistrate Zhou stared wide-eyed. After a long pause, he sat upright and looked carefully at the draft of the overall development plan of Jinghu Junior High School. He asked in surprise, "The campus is so large in order to consider the development of Lingnan Town into a port in the future. The needs of the city?"

Lin Feifei said lightly: "Yes! The campus of more than 2600 acres can be divided into several campuses, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. All men, women, and children in Lingnan Town come to our school, so there is no need for such a large space. If you don't consider It would be a waste to make the campus so large in order to meet the needs of Lingnan Town developing into a port city in the future! Of course, if Lingnan Town cannot become a port city, Jinghu Junior High School will not be able to develop to such a large scale.”

Deputy county magistrate Zhou rubbed his palms and said excitedly: "I'm ashamed! Our county government has not come up with a specific development plan, but you have formulated a supporting school development plan! Lin Feifan, you will contribute more to us in the future. Come up with ideas, around how to make Lingnan Town develop into a port city, you have to contribute ideas!"

Lin Feifei said: "The same natural conditions, due to different provinces, different preferential policies and development ideas, lead to a very large gap between the two sides of the strait. I believe that with the continuous improvement of the system and the adjustment of the country's development direction, in the near future, our Linjiang County will definitely get more and more development opportunities! When the spring breeze blows, the south of the Yangtze River will bloom like a brocade, and the north of the Yangtze River will soon be green!"

Deputy county magistrate Zhou was very excited, rolled up his sleeves, and said with great interest: "Lin Feifan, please tell me specifically, what should we do first?"

Lin Feifan's mouth was dry, and after several sips of tea, he said, "I think the government of Linjiang County should adjust its development strategy. The city of Linjiang County is neither near the Yangtze River nor Jinghu Lake, and the traffic is very difficult. Inconvenient. I heard that the future railway station and highway entrance will not be located next to Linjiang County, which is much worse than Lingnan Town! I suggest that the Linjiang County Government try to build an industrial park along the river in Lingnan Town as soon as possible. Preferential policies have been introduced to attract many manufacturers to settle in. The Linjiang County Government should formulate a development strategy for one county and two cities, with both an old city and a new industrial city..."

……

The two men talked enthusiastically, carried themselves away, and looked very proud.

Jiang Yidan on the side couldn't get in his mouth, he was very bored.

She had already refilled tea for deputy magistrate Zhou and Lin Feifan four times.

It was already past lunch time, Jiang Yidan's stomach was growling with hunger, and he said, "Have you two said enough is enough? I'm hungry and I'm going to have lunch."

Deputy County Magistrate Zhou looked at the wall clock on the wall and said with a smile, "Hey! It's already 45:[-]! Let's go, you two will come with me to the canteen of the county government for dinner. I'll treat you! Let's chat while eating."

"..." Jiang Yidan shook his head with a wry smile, "Haven't we talked enough yet? Lin Feifan, I hope you can talk about serious matters with County Magistrate Zhou, and stop talking about such nonsense!"

"How can it be empty talk?" Deputy County Magistrate Zhou got up and left his seat, and led the two of them to the cafeteria. "What Lin Feifan and I are discussing is the future of Linjiang County, which is a major issue about the direction and strategy of development!"

……

A plate of chili fried meat, a braised crucian carp, and a large bowl of tomato and egg soup. These are three dishes and one soup that the deputy county magistrate temporarily asked the canteen workers to cook for Jiang Yidan and Lin Feifan.

The three chatted while eating.

Deputy Magistrate Zhou and Lin Feifan were still discussing the economic development and urban planning of Linjiang County enthusiastically.

But Jiang Yidan was not interested in these things, didn't listen much, and concentrated on eating without saying a word.

"...So, if the economy is to develop, education must come first! It is necessary to plan the overall development plan and layout of the Jinghu Junior High School campus in advance, and invest in construction ahead of time!"

Jiang Yidan's heart skipped a beat, he slowed down his eating, and pricked up his ears to listen to Lin Feifan's continuation.

Lin Feifei said: "If an industrial park is built in the future, it will inevitably recruit a large number of workers. Only when they live comfortably can they work happily, and the worries of workers can be solved, so that more people are willing to come to work in the industrial park. If there is a local school with very good teaching quality, Large-scale basic education schools, I believe, will greatly increase the attractiveness of industrial parks, making it easy for manufacturers to recruit workers."

The topic started when Deputy County Mayor Zhou said that several factories in Linjiang County could not recruit workers, and then continued the conversation. Lin Feifan put forward the idea that "in order to develop the economy, education must come first"...

It turns out that accompanying Deputy Magistrate Zhou to talk about the economic development of Linjiang County is doing preliminary work!The topic didn't deviate at all, and we were still talking about business!Jiang Yi said heartily.

Deputy county magistrate Zhou said regretfully: "If it weren't for the above-mentioned restriction that this project must be a teaching building, I would really give the project to Jinghu Junior High School to practice your point of view [Economy must be developed, education must come first]."

Lin Feifei smiled and said, "County Zhou, even if there is no limit to this project, if it is given to our school, we will build it into a teaching building, not a residential building!"

"..." Magistrate Zhou was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Mr. Lin, don't be joking! In addition to the building donated by the Run Run Shaw Foundation, if the project is given to you, there will be three teaching buildings in Jinghu Junior High School Isn’t this too advanced? There are only classrooms for classes, but no place to stay, it’s not enough!”

Jiang Yidan was startled, she couldn't figure out what Lin Feifan meant, but she had a premonition that Lin Feifan would have the best explanation to realize what she wanted...
