On the flight from Beijing to Dongjiang Province, Chen Xing led a team of five from the Department of Higher Education to Dongjiang City, the provincial capital of Dongjiang Province. It had only been a week since the start of school, but there had already been three cases of students committing suicide in Dongjiang University. This had already caused a huge uproar in the society. The media and newspapers had given it a lot of attention. They even used the headline "Dongjiang University commits suicide in a row". Even the Central Party Newspaper had set aside a small page to report on this incident, which was enough to attract the attention of the leaders of the Ministry.
Three young lives were gone just like that. Some of the more insightful editorial commentators used this as a clue to question whether the contemporary university education system was teaching and educating people or misleading them. Students would take things too hard when they encountered a little setback, so much so that they embarked on the path of suicide. This reflected the poor psychological quality of the students. As the education system, how much responsibility should the school bear?
Chen Xing took the flight in the afternoon. In the morning, Wang Rongyan had told Chen Xing about this matter. It was in the afternoon that he learned that Lin Yupei, the deputy director of the office, was traveling with him. The other three staff members were also members of the office. Chen Xing felt a little repulsive towards Lin Yupei's traveling with him, but he did not show it on his face.
When he changed the boarding pass, Lin Yupei followed closely behind him, which also caused the two of them to sit next to each other on the plane. Chen Xing turned his head to look out of the window, but Lin Yupei started to talk. Lin Yupei whispered, "Director Chen, what's wrong with the students nowadays? They commit suicide so easily, but they don't even think about their parents. When the children encounter something that they can't get over, they think that death is the end of it. Instead, they leave the great sorrow of seeing their children die before their parents. I heard that two of the three students who died this time were the only children in their families. How sad would their parents be?"
The psychological guidance and education of the students indeed needed to be strengthened. Chen Xing didn't deny Lin Yupei's words. He was also an only child. Putting himself in their shoes, Chen Xing couldn't imagine whether his parents would be able to face the fact that something had happened to him. He could completely understand the feelings of those parents who had lost their children.
Ai, it's only been a week since school started, and there are already three cases of students jumping off buildings. This has never happened before. I don't know what happened to the students who jumped off buildings. Did they get stimulated at the beginning of school? It's just the end of the new year, and they should be going back to school happily. This kind of thing shouldn't happen. Lin Yupei shook her head and glanced at Chen Xing. Lin Yupei asked tentatively, "Southeast Weekly reported that the school's teachers and leaders were behind this incident. What do you think, Director Chen?
Right now, the newspaper reports were all over the place, and there were all kinds of versions about the jumping incident. I didn't dare to believe the newspaper reports. Whether or not there was a deeper reason behind the jumping incident, it was still up to the students themselves. We had to wait until we arrived and understood the situation before we could make a conclusion. Chen Xing answered without batting an eyelid. This afternoon, the latest insider news about this incident was exposed on the Internet. It was said that the teachers of Eastern University were behind all three incidents, and that there was also the interference of the school's top leaders. They wanted to suppress this incident, and the official website of Southeast Weekly confirmed this news.
Speaking of this, we have to mention the three students who jumped off buildings, two women and one man. The two women were sophomores in the Eastern University's School of Accounting, and the man was a sophomore in the Eastern University's School of Business. The man was in a relationship with one of the two women. It was said that Deputy Section Chief Qin of the Eastern University's School of Accounting had forced himself on the two women, and it wasn't just once. The two women couldn't bear the humiliation and jumped off buildings one after another. After the man couldn't get justice for his girlfriend, he was disheartened and chose to commit suicide.
The information on the Internet was not very complete, and I won't describe it one by one here. However, the informant claimed to be a student of Eastern University with a conscience. He risked his life to post on the Internet, hoping to seek justice for the dead. The reporter from Southeast Weekly later confirmed the authenticity of the content described in the post.
The source of the information from Southeast Weekly was also said to be provided by a student of Eastern University. Therefore, when these two pieces of news were posted on the Internet at noon, it was reposted like crazy. It was even more sensational than the 'Eastern University's three consecutive jumps' that was reported in the morning. In the morning, everyone was just curious about the three tragedies that happened in the first week of school, and lamented the poor psychological endurance of students nowadays. However, as the post spread on the Internet at noon, more people focused on the three incidents. Was there really a conspiracy behind the three incidents? If there was, would the person behind the scenes be punished by the law after getting away scot-free?
The online public opinion only began to be discussed after the self-proclaimed student of Eastern University posted the post at noon. Southeast Weekly confirmed the authenticity of the post on its official website, pushing the wave of online public opinion to the peak. One should know that Southeast Weekly was an official media with an important influence in the South. The authenticity of the post undoubtedly made more people believe that there really was a conspiracy behind the three incidents.
Before Chen Xing left in the afternoon, he was called over by Director-General Wang Rongyan. Wang Rongyan also paid attention to the latest news on the Internet. This situation was undoubtedly completely different from the situation in the morning. In the morning, no one would have thought that there was a conspiracy behind the incidents. The leaders of the Ministry of Higher Education paid attention to this matter only because the news had been published in the party newspaper and caused widespread social impact. That was why they ordered the Department of Higher Education to send people down to understand the situation. Of course, the main task was to help Eastern University do a good job with the students. Therefore, after the latest news came out at noon, the people from the Ministry of Higher Education would have a certain degree of sensitivity. In the eyes of the people from Eastern University, what was the real purpose of the higher-ups sending people down? It was inevitable that some unnecessary associations would arise. After all, Eastern University was a local university directly under the jurisdiction of the Dongjiang Provincial government. The Ministry had the right to guide the work and teaching, but it was impossible for them to interfere too much with the internal affairs of the university. Therefore, before Chen Xing left in the afternoon, Wang Rongyan also instructed the people from the Ministry to go down to understand the situation and help Eastern University do a good job with the students. As for the internal affairs of Eastern University, they should not meddle too much in order to avoid any friction.
Naturally, Chen Xing also understood what Wang Rongyan meant. Other than nodding his head, he had nothing else to say. He did want to intervene in the internal affairs of the university, but it also depended on whether the people from Eastern University were willing to do so. The people from the Ministry were indeed powerful, and the local universities were also willing to curry favor with them. No one was willing to offend the people from the Ministry. However, when it came to matters related to interests, to put it bluntly, the local universities might have the guts to directly contradict the people from the Ministry. The finance and personnel of Eastern University were all under the control of the local government, so why should they give face to the Ministry?
When the flight that Chen Xing and his entourage took arrived in Dongzhou City, the capital of the Dongjiang Province, Dongjiang University sent a vice president to the airport to personally receive them. The vice president was called Cai Jinpeng. He was about 50 years old, tall and hale and hearty. He did not look like a man over 50 years old, and his eyes were bright and full of expression.
However, when they were picking up the plane, they made a small joke. Among the office staff accompanying Chen Xing, except for one who had just graduated less than a year ago, the others were all older than Chen Xing. One of them was over 40 years old, an associate investigator in the office of the Department of Higher Education. He was also the oldest person in Chen Xing's entourage. Cai Jinpeng thought that person was' Chen Xing ', and enthusiastically called him' Director Chen ', causing quite an embarrassment at the scene.
Director Chen, I'm really sorry. Look at me, I'm so old that I've even mistaken you for someone else. Cai Jinpeng was already over 50 years old, but at this moment, his face was flushed. He looked at Chen Xing in disbelief. He could not figure out how the deputy director from above could be so young. When he received the notice from the university at noon, he was still in his laboratory. When it was almost noon, it was his assistant who informed him that he would be receiving the entourage from the department. Only then did he hurriedly change his clothes and come out of the laboratory. As a result, he did not do enough homework and mistook Chen Xing for someone else.
After the introduction, Chen Xing also knew that the person standing in front of him was the vice president of Dongjiang University, Cai Jinpeng. At this time, Cai Jinpeng's behavior more or less surprised Chen Xing. Chen Xing did not care about the fact that Cai Jinpeng mistook Chen Xing for someone else. Judging from Cai Jinpeng's appearance, he did not do it on purpose. He smiled and nodded to Cai Jinpeng.
No trouble, no trouble at all. It's what I should do. Cai Jinpeng kept smiling, but his expression was very uncomfortable. In his heart, he kept complaining about what the university's leaders were doing. Why did they let him do this kind of work? Obviously, this was not something he was good at. Any other vice president would be better than him.
The group of people walked to the car. Lin Yupei also seized the opportunity to introduce Cai Jinpeng to Chen Xing. Director Chen, this Vice President Cai was well-known in the academic circle of the university as a laboratory maniac. He spent all day in the laboratory, so he was slightly lacking in worldly wisdom. However, he could also be considered as one of the signboards of Dongjiang University.
Deputy Director Lin knew a lot about the universities under him. Chen Xing nodded. After Lin Yupei's explanation, Chen Xing finally understood why Cai Jinpeng's behavior was a little unnatural. Cai Jinpeng was completely dedicated to his studies. How could a person who dealt with experiments all day be able to do social work?
It's mainly because this Vice President Cai is quite famous, so I know a little about him. Lin Yupei smiled, but she still couldn't figure it out. It was reasonable to say that Eastern University shouldn't have sent Vice President Cai to pick them up at the airport. Sending another Vice President would have been better than Cai Jinpeng. Just looking at it made people feel weird.
Really? Chen Xing looked at Lin Yupei thoughtfully.
After getting in the car, Lin Yupei didn't say anything. Chen Xing didn't communicate much with Cai Jinpeng either. Cai Jinpeng was obviously not good with words. Seeing that Chen Xing didn't say anything, Cai Jinpeng seemed to be relieved. When the car arrived at Dongjiang University's main campus, Dongjiang University Party Committee Secretary Qin Jianhui and President Wu Gubo received Chen Xing and his party in the school's reception room. Party Committee Secretary Qin Jianhui expressed his sincere gratitude for the Ministry's concern for the work of Dongjiang University. President Wu Gubo also made a speech welcoming the arrival of Chen Xing and his party. The university would actively cooperate with the instructions of the Ministry's leaders, actively appease the students' emotions, and do a good job in student affairs.
Chen Xing also conveyed the concern of the Ministry's leaders regarding the successive cases of students jumping off buildings at Dongjiang University. He hoped that Dongjiang University would do a good job in the ideological work of the students, try to restore the normal teaching order, and eliminate the impact. In addition, Chen Xing was cautious and didn't make any comments. Before leaving, Director Wang Rongyan instructed him not to interfere with the internal affairs of the university. Naturally, Chen Xing wouldn't create a tense atmosphere for the university's leaders. Especially since there was a person in the room who was related to the post that had just been exposed on the Internet this afternoon. The head of Dongjiang University's Party Committee, Qin Jianhui, was said to be the father of the Vice Section Chief Qin. Of course, before this kind of thing was confirmed, Chen Xing naturally wouldn't make wild guesses. Besides, the authenticity of the information revealed on the Internet has yet to be confirmed. At least for now, Chen Xing wouldn't be prejudiced against anyone.
Director Chen and his entourage came in a hurry. They must be tired from the journey. I'll arrange for Director Chen and his entourage to rest for a while. Later, our university will host a banquet for Director Chen and his entourage at Dongjiang Hotel. Qin Jianhui looked at Chen Xing with a smile and instructed Jiang Dongjin, the director of the university's Party Committee Office, who was beside him. Director Jiang, you will assist Vice President Cai in receiving Director Chen and his entourage for the next few days. If Director Chen and his entourage have any requests, you must satisfy them in time.
Qin Jianhui's words seemed to be deliberately said in front of Chen Xing. Cai Jinhui, who was mentioned at the side, had a bitter expression on his face. Secretary Qin, I haven't finished my homework in the laboratory yet. Receiving guests is not my forte. Please let Lao Hu do it.
Jinpeng, it's time for you to come out and exercise. You can't stay in the laboratory all the time. It's not good for your health. You're the living signboard of our Eastern University. If your health deteriorates, it will be a huge loss to Eastern University. I'll leave the task of receiving Director Chen to you for the next few days. This is a task. You're not allowed to refuse. Just treat it as a holiday. "Qin Jianhui smiled and waved his hand. He even looked at Chen Xing and said with a smile," Our Vice President Cai is like this. He's straightforward and speaks straightforwardly. Director Chen, please don't take offense.
No, I quite like Vice President Cai's character. " Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. If Lin Yupei hadn't mentioned a little about what kind of person Cai Jinpeng was, Chen Xing would have been unhappy with Cai Jinpeng's words at this moment. If he didn't know better, he would have thought that Cai Jinpeng looked down on him and deliberately found an excuse to not receive him.
Under the guidance of Jiang Dongjin, the director of the Eastern University's Party Committee Office, Chen Xing and his entourage took a car directly to the Eastern University Hotel. This four-star hotel was built at the entrance of Eastern University and belonged to Eastern University.
