I Am the President of the University

Ludao, Siming District, Green Island Community.

"squeak--"

The security door is closed. \b

Seeing Zhai Yang coming back from the door, Yang He, who was sitting on the sofa in the hall, said with some complaint: "Husband, didn't I ask you to see off Principal Chen?"

"Principal Chen said no." Zhai Yang replied without thinking.

Yang He couldn't help but hold his forehead, feeling like he was angry.

"You are a piece of wood. It is the other person's idea to say no, but as a subordinate you still have to give in. This is a matter of attitude."

"Principal Chen said there is no need to give it away, so there is no need." Zhai Yang began to frown and defended, "And strictly speaking, I am not a subordinate. I am just a part-time tutor at Guanghua College."

"Okay, okay, you are right, okay!" Yang He rolled his eyes and gave up the idea of ​​persuading the other party.

Lao Zhai's ability is beyond words. Although he is not the oldest in the Chemistry Department of Ludao University, he is definitely the strongest.

If it weren't for this stubborn temper, he would have been the chairman of the chemistry department long ago.

"Principal Chen came to visit today to pay New Year's greetings. Let me remember one thing. Principal Zhang hasn't been here for several years." Yang He reminded him intentionally or unintentionally.

I remember that Zhai Yang or Principal Zhang personally came to the United States as a talent introduction and invited him back to teach. He also took great care of me during the years when he returned to China.

"The school affairs are heavy, and Principal Zhang has many things to worry about. Isn't this normal?" Zhai Yang said lightly.

"Hey, husband, how do you feel about this Principal Chen?" Yang He asked again.

"I feel pretty good. He is a down-to-earth and practical person. He is just a little impetuous sometimes, but that's normal. After all, he is still young." Zhai Yang thought for a while and commented seriously.

In fact, the couple Zhai Yang and Yang He are very grateful to Chen Hao and Guanghua University.

Both sons are studying at Tsinghua University and are about to go to the United States to study for doctorates this year. The cost of studying for two people's Ph.D.s is not small.

In addition, parents also have to worry about their children's future wedding gifts, houses, and cars. This is not one bottomless pit, but two bottomless pits...

Yang He glanced at Zhai Yang and coughed twice, "What about Principal Zhang?"

Zhai Yang:......

"I won't say much about ability. At least Principal Chen is younger, more energetic, and more thoughtful than Principal Zhang, right?" Yang He snorted, and then his voice suddenly dropped a lot.

"I remember that the Chemistry Department of Guanghua University is still in preparation, right?"

…

…

After leaving Professor Zhai Yang's home, Chen Hao paid homage to two other senior professors.

The sky is getting darker, and evening is coming soon.

Chen Hao was driving to his last destination of the past two days.

A certain residential complex.

At this time, Ludao is still very safe. No cases of COVID-19 have occurred, and there is no need for nucleic acid testing or isolation.

Standing in front of the familiar house number 404, Chen Hao gently pressed the doorbell.

"Come on, come on!"

Before the door opened, a clear and sweet female voice came from inside.

Hearing this voice, the corners of Chen Hao's mouth raised slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Just a moment later, I felt inexplicably nervous for some reason.

Probably...it's because Qian Jiahui's father is also here.

"You're here, Happy New Year (*^▽^*)!"

Qian Jiahui stood at the door, his eyes never leaving Chen Hao's cheek.

Then, she glanced back secretly, then turned her head and lowered her voice, "Have you missed me lately?"

"Yes, a little bit." Chen Hao hesitated and replied.

"Just a little..." Qian Jiahui's mouth suddenly bulged, like a bun, but he looked aggrieved, as if he had been bullied by Chen Hao.

At this time, Mr. Qian's tough voice came from the house.

"Jiahui, who is here? Is it Xiaohao?"

"Grandpa Qian, I'm here to wish you a happy New Year." Chen Hao seemed to have been saved and hurriedly walked in with a smile on his face.

The smile on his face lasted for less than half a minute, and immediately turned into a cold, normal expression.

Because he knew the middle-aged man sitting opposite Qian and An!

President Zhang Yuezhang of Ludao University!

"Principal Chen, Happy New Year!" Zhang Yue greeted him with a smile.

"Principal Zhang, you too, Happy New Year~" He stopped hitting the smiling man, and Chen Hao could only respond with a forced smile.

After putting the gifts away and chatting with Grandpa Qian for a while, Chen Hao was ready to say goodbye and leave.

Until he just walked out of the Qian family's house.

I heard a shout just behind me.

"Principal Chen, wait!"

Chen Hao stopped and looked back. The person coming was Zhang Yue. \b

After Zhang Yue came over,

"Is it convenient now to chat together?"

"What are you talking about?" Chen Hao asked bluntly.

"Things about the Strait Research Institute." Zhang Yue asked in a deep voice without making any detours.

"Okay." Chen Hao narrowed his eyes. This topic really caught his attention.

The Strait Research Institute is the result of Baodao's compromise on the TSMC issue. What does President Zhang mean by this?

Does Ludao University also want to get involved?

Ludao is a very sentimental city with a deep coffee culture. Cafes can be found almost everywhere, and there is even a dedicated coffee street.

The two of them found a random cafe to sit down and ordered coffee.

Chen Hao asked casually: "It seems that President Zhang has some ideas about this Straits Research Institute."

Zhang Yue spoke quickly, laughed dryly and said, "That's right. I want to cooperate with Guanghua on this Strait Research Institute."

"Cooperation? Isn't it necessary?" Chen Hao refused, because when he first discussed this with Baodao, he only set up a Strait Research Institute to recruit talents from Baodao.

Although Baodao is a province, it has many universities. There are several schools with good scientific research capabilities. These are the talents he values. There is no reason to let Lu University come in and leave again.

Zhang Yue has been observing Chen Hao's face since he took his seat.

As for Chen Hao's rejection, he was not surprised. On the contrary, he smiled confidently and said, "Principal Chen, don't be too busy refusing. You might as well listen to my positioning of this Straits Research Institute."

"I position the Straits Research Institute as a world-class base for scientific and technological innovation, high-tech industrialization and talent training."

Zhang Yue continued eloquently: "Hu Province and Taiwan are across the sea. It is very suitable to establish the Strait Research Institute. It can fully highlight the characteristics of "cross-strait cooperation", integrate and give full play to the disciplines, talents, and research and development advantages of universities on both sides of the strait, and create The innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem is also a very good opportunity for Hu Province and Ludao City..."

To be able to become the president of a prestigious 985 school like Ludao University, Zhang Yue is obviously good at management. A Strait Research Institute was created by Zhang Yue.

And Chen Hao was also very excited when he heard it.

According to Zhang Yue's idea, if it can be implemented in detail, the rewards will be great indeed!

"It's interesting, Principal Zhang, can you tell me how to implement it specifically?" Chen Hao took a sip of coffee and his eyes flashed slightly.

Zhang Yue was overjoyed and thought there was something going on, so he clearly stated the blueprint for the Strait Research Institute in the past few days.

By the time he finished speaking, Zhang Yue's mouth was dry and he talked for half an hour in one breath.

"Principal Chen, what do you think?"

"I think it's pretty good." Chen Hao nodded.

It was just his next words that made Zhang Yue's expression change drastically.

"What can Ludao University pay for? Otherwise, why would it give half of the cake?"

Chen Hao looked at Zhang Yue with a smile.

"It seems that the absence of Ludao University will not affect this implementation, right?"
