Chapter 340: Build a new campus?

"I already understand what Principal Sun said. So what are your plans, Principal Sun?"

After listening to what Principal Sun said, Fang Xiang realized that because of the publicity in newspapers, the number of applicants to South China University of Technology has exceeded the school's capacity.

Actually, this matter cannot be blamed on the newspaper.

Opening courses and teaching them is a good thing no matter what.

It is also a good thing that the newspaper is willing to publicize GAC’s successful start.

But when the two were added together, the fact that South China University of Technology could not handle such enormous wealth was beyond everyone's expectations.

I'm afraid the newspaper didn't expect such a result.

Nowadays, the country still takes care of everything. As one of the major projects in recent years, GAC not only has a large factory, but also its corresponding welfare benefits are top-notch in Guangdong Province and even in the whole country.

It is even better than the already famous Second Automobile Works.

As it is a new factory, everyone who joins becomes a formal employee. The factory has a hospital, a school, and provides housing. It is normal that it attracts a lot of attention and people are scrambling to get in.

The only thing I didn't expect was that there would be so many people.

Moreover, the admission score line has been raised again and again.

"Didn't you say last time, Professor Fang, that we have vacant land in our factory..."

Principal Sun's face was all smiles at the moment, and he had no choice but to be careful. Not to mention Fang Xiang's status, now when he asked for help from others, his attitude must be correct, right?

"Three thousand people is indeed too many, Principal Sun...

Forget it, leave this matter to me, I will arrange it."

Fang Xiang originally wanted to ask why you didn’t tell me earlier. It’s already August and you’re just coming to tell me what you were doing in July?

But what's the point of saying this?

Won't it all fall on him in the end?

It would be better to just accept it.

"This is... Thank you so much, Professor Fang."

Principal Sun naturally knew what Fang Xiang was going to say as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was even prepared to be blamed.

But unexpectedly, Fang Xiang didn't even mention it, his face suddenly blossomed with a smile so bright that his eyes could not be seen.

"I discussed the school renovation with Principal Sun last time. How is it going?"

At the beginning of summer, Fang Xiang went to the school once because he saw many old and dilapidated buildings in the school.

So they contacted Liu Qiwen and the engineering troops of the Guangdong Military Region to renovate the campus.

It’s just that I’ve been too busy lately and Fang Xiang doesn’t have time to take a look.

“I have to thank Professor Fang for this.

Now the school has become a big construction site, with people working overtime and not even resting until midnight.

Although the noise has caused many people in the neighborhood to complain, I think the students will still be able to use the new houses before school starts."

Seeing that Fang wanted to bring up this matter, Principal Sun quickly gave a brief explanation of the current situation.

"That's good.

It seems that the new subject is still quite popular, and I will be able to accept some students when they graduate in the future.

Although Second Automobile Works may not have a large number of vacancies, it will be no problem for them to accept a small number of graduates.

The problem now is, what if there are still so many students applying to our school next year?

Principal Sun, are you ready? "

Fang Xiang nodded. This matter would inevitably require the involvement of Liu Qiwen and the Guangdong Provincial Military Region.

If things go wrong, we will have to seek help from engineering units in other military regions.

But this year’s problem has been solved, what about next year?

"next year..."

Principal Sun hesitated for a moment.

This matter is of urgency, how can he have the energy to think about next year?

If Fang Xiang hadn't mentioned it, he probably wouldn't have realized it.

"Have you ever considered rebuilding a university, President Sun?"

Seeing Principal Sun's expression, Fang Xiang knew very well that Principal Sun was only concerned with the present and had never thought about the future.

"Rebuilding a university is a huge undertaking, and the school has neither money nor land.

As for the approval document, don't even think about it.

How dare I think? "

After pondering for a moment, Principal Sun began to complain.

That's how it is these days, planned economy, planned economy, everything has to be planned.

The whole country is like a big chessboard. If you eat more here, you will definitely eat less elsewhere.

Therefore, during this period, people had to run around to get money, and over time, this became a routine, and it could not be changed in later generations.

Of course, this is not to say that this approach is bad. The country has a poor foundation and lacks money, so we must concentrate on doing big things first.

Moreover, judging from the results in later generations, this approach was actually a great wisdom.

"In the long run, GAC will definitely continue to expand its business and increase production and efficiency.

Moreover, there is not only one GAC in the country, there are also FAW, Second FAW, BAIC and Shanghai Automotive.

In the future, the automobile industry will also be a pillar industry of the country. Our South China University of Technology started early and has great advantages.

Maybe in the future he will become the founder of this discipline in China.

Principal Sun is the helmsman of this cornerstone, so you might as well consider it. "

Under this system, things that seem impossible to others are not a problem for Fang Xiang.

But Fang Xiang didn't want to do it all by himself.

This kind of thing is okay to do once in a while, but if you do it too often, it will definitely lead to gossip and also make people jealous.

Moreover, in this matter, the one who benefited was South China University of Technology, and I was the one who paid the price.

Even when doing good things, Fang Xiang doesn't want to be the first to stand out or be taken advantage of.

So, what this means is to let Principal Sun take the lead.

"this..."

It was obvious that Principal Sun understood what Fang Xiang said.

How could he not be envious of such a beautiful prospect?

Apart from anything else, in the future when people talk about the automobile major of South China University of Technology, they will always mention him.

As a man of letters, he does not value power or profit, but only values ​​reputation.

Principal Sun is not stupid, he definitely wants this opportunity to go down in history.

But the same old saying applies: eat as much rice as your bowl allows.

Principal Sun knew that the bowl in his hand was only so big and he couldn't take on this big piece of cake.

His expression at this moment seemed particularly conflicted.

"Then let's put it this way. I have something else to do, so I won't keep Principal Sun for now."

Seeing Principal Sun's expression, Fang Xiang was too lazy to continue accompanying him as there were still a lot of things waiting for him there.

There is no way I can waste so much time here.

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

“Professor Fang, can you give me a hint?

This is such a big thing, and I don’t have the slightest clue about it…”

When Principal Sun saw Fang Xiang was about to leave, he suddenly became anxious and quickly stood up and walked to Fang Xiang's side.

“Principal Sun might as well ask the ministry’s opinion first.

I'm still busy, I'll contact you later."

Fang Xiang smiled. It seemed that Principal Sun was really not in charge of administration.

I've made it so obvious, yet you still keep asking.

After replying with a smile, he left the small reception room with Xiao Cheng.

The current situation of South China University of Technology cannot be solved by South China University of Technology alone.

As a university directly under the Ministry, the Ministry must certainly bear part of the responsibility.

Moreover, the expansion of universities also requires cooperation from the province. Even if Fang wants to take action, this kind of thing can be accomplished in a few days.

The construction of a new university cannot be completed overnight.

It is impossible for students to move into the new campus immediately. It will take several years.

As for the matter of preparing for a rainy day, let’s leave it to those guys in administration to deal with.

After leaving the small reception room, Fang Xiang returned to his office.

Ji Pengwei was already waiting for him.

The reason is not for anything else, but that Shanghai Auto's Santana is about to start selling. This model was put into production in 83 and is now facing the urgent situation of being put on the market for sale.

However, Shanghai Auto has been slow to launch Santana into the market, and has been continuously conducting road tests, inspections and adjustments on it.

But the ugly daughter-in-law still has to meet her parents-in-law eventually.

There are a large number of cars stored in Shanghai Auto's warehouse. If they are not put on the market, Shanghai Auto will not be able to bear such a huge financial pressure.

However, how to set the price has become an unsolvable problem for Shanghai Auto.

The reason is nothing else but fear of GAC.

According to history, the first batch of Santana was sold for only 80,000 yuan, but it was quickly adjusted to 160,000 yuan soon after.

Others may not know the cost, but Fang Xiang knows it very well.

Fang was too lazy to think about where the huge profit went, but as an ordinary mid-size car that was once popular all over the country and attracted much attention and pursuit, it was sold at this price...

Fang Xiang was too lazy to calculate how much profit Hans Volkswagen took from China.

But now. . .

You have to ask me first.
