Name: The Holy Son of the Energy Department Enters Handong

No. 2 Courtyard of the Provincial Government of Handong Province.

Zhao Xia was studying the thirteen cities of Handong Province.

He studied relevant policies and thought about how to lead the economic development of Handong Province.

Is it a circle of common development, or a group of thirteen protectors each developing their own way?

Alternatively, it could concentrate resources in one direction, drain a portion of the economy, and enable a region's economy to reach an unprecedented level of development, achieving the effect of the rich leading the poor to prosperity.

These are all issues that he, as the provincial governor, should consider.

But while he was studying these issues...

The red secure phone on the table rang.

"Beep beep beep beep!!"

Who could have called me? Another member of the provincial standing committee?

Or a higher-level leader?

Zhao Xia frowned in confusion.

The thought process only lasted a moment, and then he quickly answered the phone.

"Hello, this is Zhao Xia from the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government."

"Hahahaha, Xia, with your serious expression, I didn't recognize you at first. I really don't believe you can speak in such a serious tone!"

"It seems that the people in Handong Province really train people up; they've energized you instantly!" There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a hearty laugh.

Zhao Xia recognized the voice on the other end of the phone; it was none other than her teacher.

Hearing the other person's laughter, Zhao Xia decided to play a trick on him.

"Comrade, who are you? What do you want? If you don't have anything to say, don't make this call!" Zhao Xia said seriously.

It was as if he didn't recognize that the person on the other end of the phone was his teacher.

"Well, you little rascal, I don't even recognize you anymore, do I!"

Believe it or not, I'll parachute into Handong and beat you up!

Upon hearing Zhao Xia's words, Ye Huaimin's tone instantly turned hostile, and he jokingly said in a vicious tone.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, teacher. I can tell, I'm sure I can tell. I'm not kidding you." Zhao Xia quickly admitted her mistake, knowing her teacher was full of energy.

If the mood strikes, he might just parachute into Handong and give himself a good spanking.

"You little brat, you're just asking for trouble, all you do is joke around with the teacher?" President Ye sneered.

"Teacher, let's get down to business. You didn't call me just to catch up, did you?" Zhao Xia said with a faint smile. The teacher was a workaholic, not someone who liked to reminisce.

If someone calls you, it must be something important.

"I'm not responding to the organization's new rules for talent utilization, because I can't shoulder too many responsibilities, and I'm preparing to leave Shanghai."

"You're the governor, and you're in charge of development. If you encounter any problems, you can report them directly to me openly and honestly!" President Ye said to Zhao Xia in a calm tone, as if he were talking about something trivial.

"Teacher, you've been officially hired!!!"

Zhao Xia's eyes lit up with surprise and delight. The teacher had only been acting as an interim teacher before, but he actually held multiple positions.

The organizational regulations have indeed been issued, prohibiting Mr. Ye from concurrently holding a position in Shanghai.

However, he was promoted to a permanent position as a result.

This is such great news!!

"It was bound to happen sooner or later. If I didn't want to mentor you in Shanghai for a few more years, I would have been promoted to a permanent position long ago!"

The meeting has already largely finalized the details, which will take place in the next few days!

If you encounter any problems in the future, you can report them to me!

"This is your right as a student, and also as the governor!" President Ye said energetically.

This incident clearly didn't make him lose his head; he continued to maintain a high-intensity work ethic.

"Teacher, I have to admire you. Your temperament and composure are something I need to learn from for a long time!" Zhao Xia said, giving a thumbs up.

Such a big change.

Few people could remain calm, but what about his teacher?

Surprisingly, my heart remained completely unmoved.

What do you admire?

Although I was promoted to a permanent position, my responsibilities have decreased.

Originally, when I was acting as an agent, I also had to take care of my work in Shanghai, so the workload was quite heavy.

"Now that I've been promoted, the pressure on me has been reduced!" President Ye said calmly.

He really didn't take this to heart; he's a complete workaholic.

No wonder he got to this position; he's a truly genuine person!

"Overall, you've made progress, which is something to be happy about. Teacher, I don't have anything to give you, so how about I fly over to your side and have a drink with you!" Zhao Xia joked.

However, when his words reached President Ye's ears, they did indeed make President Ye somewhat tempted.

It wasn't that he was addicted to drinking; he just wanted to hear what innovative development ideas Zhao Xia had in mind.

Zhao Xia is indeed clever, but he doesn't put his cleverness into practice; he's always lazy.

They clearly had a great opportunity to shine, but they just didn't.

"Teacher, what does your silence mean?"

"Don't scare me! You don't actually want me to have a drink with you, do you?" Zhao Xia panicked the moment he saw President Ye's silence. He was just joking!

"Teacher, I'm not an alcoholic!"

However, you haven't been by my side to offer advice for a long time, and I'm still getting used to it. Do you have any innovative ideas to share recently?

"Don't hide anything from the teacher," President Ye asked solemnly.

Zhao Xia breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; it wasn't serious, just that he was asked to accompany her for drinks.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Xia spoke up: "Teacher, good development ideas don't come overnight."

However, I've discovered a completely new problem.

"What's the problem? Tell me quickly!" President Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.

He always gets something out of Zhao Xia when she speaks in this serious tone.

It seems that making that phone call today was definitely the right decision.

Zhao Xia calmly replied, "It's a problem with our education system. Is it because we're too focused on world rankings and have lost sight of some of the most essential things?"

Some signs of disorder have already emerged.

They recruit large numbers of international students, offering generous subsidies, and even female students to accompany them...

It's all so that their school can rank higher on other people's lists.

Some universities are no longer focusing on talent cultivation and academic research, prioritizing high research rankings and a prestigious reputation. These problems are already becoming increasingly apparent!

Zhao Xia said calmly that this was a problem he had come across by chance, and he originally wanted to start the reforms in Handong Province.

However, since the teacher was officially promoted today and was capable of managing the class, he casually brought it up.

Upon hearing this, there was a brief silence on the other end of the phone before Mr. Ye spoke seriously: "I have heard a lot of people's reactions to this issue."

However, this matter still needs to be considered.

Some people believe that if we don't pursue world rankings, our country will be considered backward and closed off from the world.

We must learn from the painful lessons of history, but since you've already said so...

I still believe in your intelligence as a gifted student. I will seriously study this matter and investigate the facts!

"Is there anything else, teacher?"

"I'll hang up now if there's nothing else. The development landscape in Handong is quite complex." Zhao Xia urged, seeing that President Ye hadn't said anything more after finishing speaking.

"What's your hurry, kid? Do you know I have good news for you today?" Ye Huaimin raised an eyebrow and questioned, "Or did someone tip you off and tell you in advance?"
