Chapter 355 Puppy Love
The review pace for high school students at Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School is very fast.

The three-year high school curriculum had long been completed, and the first round of review had also passed. As soon as school started after the Chinese New Year, the senior grade group immediately began the second round of review.

Zhang Yunqi's most intuitive feeling about the second round of review is that if the first round of review is to review each knowledge point one by one, then the second round of review is a mixture of various high school knowledge points. The types of test questions are comprehensive, which is quite choking to chew. The time is also tight, and there are all kinds of rushes. The mountains of question books and test papers cannot be finished even if you don't sleep or take a shit for 24 hours a day. It is full of oppression, and students who can't keep up with the pace are really miserable.

Of course, this kind of progress is unparalleled across the city.

That’s the case with No. 1 Middle School in the city.

Focus on the small and magnify the small, and tend to focus on elitist education.

Students with good grades and independent learning ability will enjoy a large amount of learning resources, and the teaching progress is completely designed to take care of this group of top students. As for those students with average grades who pay the school construction fees to enter, no one cares whether they can keep up or not. Most of them are in a free-range state. Even at this stage, the school gate is open all year round, and no one will care if you skip classes.

Of course, those poor students who give up treatment are naturally happy-everyday, and have already enjoyed the retirement life of entering university early, sleeping until they wake up naturally, and playing games until dawn. But for the vast majority of students with poor grades who want to improve, this is undoubtedly painful and tormenting. They know that they cannot be admitted to a good university, but they still have to work hard every day, but they cannot keep up with the teaching progress at all. Facing the mountains and seas of questions, that feeling is probably like a ship drifting on the sea, paddling hard every day, but looking around, there is still a vast ocean.

Tian Zhuangzhuang is such a poor student.

In the past, he followed Kaizi and was lazy, going to the game hall every day, his academic performance was terrible, and he played mixed doubles for his parents at every parent-teacher conference. When he was in the third year of high school, hey! He suddenly had to work hard.

One evening, after playing football, Zhang Yunqi sat on the open-air stands with Wang Xiaokai and Tian Zhuangzhuang, drinking Old Yanjing. Zhang Yunqi asked Tian Zhuangzhuang, "Fatty, why have you suddenly become so hardworking recently? I heard from Kaizi that you read books with a flashlight until the early morning every night."

Tian Zhuangzhuang said: "Hammer! I must work hard and become stronger."

Zhang Yunqi asked: "Why?"

Tian Zhuangzhuang shrugged: "I don't know either, but if I give up even trying, I might really regret it in the future, just like the adults said."

Zhang Yunqi smiled.

He looked up at the football field and saw a boy and a girl on the field. They were sitting on the green grass, each wearing a pair of headphones, reviewing their textbooks together, and basking in the early spring sun together. Their shadows were leaning against each other, and the ground was filled with warm light.

Zhang Yunqi took a sip of Yanjing and said it was quite good.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that these young people around him who had no idea what their future would be like, seemed to have grown up suddenly overnight, and began to feel lost, confused, and worried about their future. Those days when they used to wear flip-flops, eat popsicles, walk on the sidewalk, and watch pretty girls measure their breast sizes were gone forever.

Instead, there are countless late nights of reading by lamplight; countless mornings of reading aloud; morning self-study sessions in which one forces oneself to be alert despite being drowsy; evening runs under the dim lights; running to the cafeteria to eat voraciously in order to save time without caring about one's image; and also, those distant ideals, glory, struggles in the darkness, the repeated touches brought by struggle, and the sunlight shining through the classroom window on the profile of the girl I liked on an afternoon when cicadas were chirping.

It's all about to end, it's all about to begin.

Even though it's painful, at least there is hope.

This is the senior year life as seen by Zhang Yunqi.

He himself is methodical.

In his previous life, after graduating from junior high school, he went to a technical secondary school, and he had already returned most of the knowledge to the teacher with interest. As for the knowledge points in high school, most of them were brand new. The college entrance examination in a few months was like a virgin entering the bridal chamber and firing his first shot. So he had no advantage over other students.

If there is, it must be in the mentality.

As a former top student, the most important experience he learned from studying is not to be impetuous. Honesty, patience, and calmness are the core qualities of learning. It makes sense to turn a deaf ear to the outside world and focus on reading the books of sages. Of course, we must also have the spirit of learning from one example and applying it to other situations. For example, when we see a big watermelon, we immediately think of a motor and a small electric hip; when we hear the sound of rough waves, we will never think of the wrong answer of "sea".

Until now, no one cared about Zhang Yunqi's lateness and absence from classes.

Who dares and who can control him?

It is impossible for him to focus all his energy on studying. It is totally unrealistic. To be honest, he has no ambition to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University. He is satisfied with just enough grades to get into a key university. Because there is no such thing as a cow dying of exhaustion. He has cultivated the field of "career", so naturally he does not have much energy to manipulate "study". It is unrealistic to climb to the peak of academic achievement with limited energy.

His business empire is now expanding.

Liansheng system is backed by Yunxi Longjingyuan Agricultural Industrial Park and two major breeding bases. From production to processing to sales, a large supply chain has been formed. Its market competitiveness is unmatched and its scale is growing. Lianzhong has made a fortune for two years relying on Subor handheld games, but its revenue is now sluggish. Zhang Yunqi's requirement for Lianzhong General Manager Yu Lin is to stabilize the operation and build a two-level distribution system to control the entire southern Hunan market. He will not consider expanding the scale of operation for the time being. Except for the necessary capital reservation, all other profits have been withdrawn by Zhang Yunqi, and he is ready to start the VCD player plan!
At present, Zhang Yunqi also wants to revitalize the land of the old factory area of ​​Longjingyuan and build the largest night market in Jiangchuan.

He has been thinking about this idea for a long time.

Now that the old cannery of Longjingyuan has been relocated to the Yunxi Village Agricultural Industrial Park, the old cannery is vacant and can be officially promoted. Of course, the development and operation of this land, how much money can be made is secondary, the meaning behind it is more important. He wants to set a benchmark for Yang Jiarong to reform the property rights of state-owned enterprises and develop the real economy, and prove that his theory of using shell companies to control the reform of municipal and district state-owned enterprises is feasible.

To do this business, we must rely on a catering operation company to manage and operate it.

It's just that it's not quite appropriate for Liansheng to get involved. Li Jilin is currently in charge of the merger and reorganization of the city's canning industry. Last year, dozens of canning factories in the city that were destroyed by Longjingyuan were all contracted and operated by Liansheng under the promotion of Mayor Yang Jiarong. To put it bluntly, it's a bit like OEM operation, but this was also a stopgap measure during the transition period when the Longjingyuan Industrial Park was under construction last year. Now Zhang Yunqi's plan is to cooperate with the Municipal State-owned Investment Corporation to incorporate all fixed assets such as the contracted canning factory production lines into the Yunxi Longjingyuan Agricultural Industrial Park, and give the land to the Municipal State-owned Investment Corporation for operation.

The city would definitely support this plan, and they might even give Zhang Yunqi a big red flower and award him a medal of "Leader in Getting Rich" or "Outstanding Young Entrepreneur". The reason is simple: he can get money for the impoverished city finances.

According to Zhang Yunqi's idea, all the land in the old cannery area could be sold and put directly under the name of the municipal state-owned investment company. Once the industrial land is changed, it will become a valuable commercial land. Through bidding, it would be easy to recover hundreds of millions of funds. By then, the city officials who are worried about having no money in their pockets will laugh so hard that their faces will crack.

However, Zhang Yunqi was absolutely not interested in doing a business that would enrich other people's pockets but lose his own money. He also wanted money, and he wanted the government to assist Liansheng in carrying out bankruptcy reorganization of dozens of canning factories by providing financial subsidies.

Because this involves the core contradiction of the treatment of laid-off workers. Coincidentally, Liansheng's Yunxi Longjingyuan Agricultural Industrial Park has the ability to resolve this contradiction. Liansheng's front, middle and back-end systems have been fully built, and he is not afraid of absorbing redundant staff and expanding the scale of operation.

Of course, Zhang Yunqi is still very self-aware. The price he offered was not high. He offered a financial subsidy of 10 million yuan, which would be paid in three installments, and Liansheng’s corporate income tax and other local taxes would be fully exempted for two years.

This restructuring plan involves a lot of requests for instructions, approval of disposal plans, changes to contracting contracts, re-signing of cooperation agreements, etc. It will take at least half a year to finalize. Li Jilin is naturally very busy. He has always been in charge of the entire Liansheng system, and his energy is really limited. So Zhang Yunqi plans to hand this matter over to his elder brother Zhang Yunfeng's Zhangji Qifengdu Catering Management and Operation Co., Ltd.

This means that the old factory area of ​​Longjingyuan Cannery was contracted by Liansheng to Zhangji Catering, and then Zhangji Catering cooperated with the government to promote the introduction of policy documents such as the "Jiangchuan City Street Vendor Management Guidance and Autonomous Regulations", guiding and forcibly recruiting surrounding street vendors to enter the market, and using market means to cultivate a number of specialty restaurants such as Qifengdu Fish Meal and Roast Chicken, and then set up some discos, ice rinks, video halls and other entertainment venues to create the largest night market in Jiangchuan.

On the Lantern Festival, Zhang Yunqi discussed this plan with his elder brother Zhang Yunfeng at home.

The whole family was there that day, on the reunion night, there were two big news at home. One was that my sister-in-law Zhang Xiaonan was pregnant, and the other was that everyone in the Zhang family knew that Zhang Yunqi and Chu Jian were in love.
