Chapter 349 Captain? Instructor? [Please subscribe! Please give me a monthly ticket!]
Ten years as a principal had a profound impact on Yan Wenyuan, a soldier, and gave him the elegant demeanor of an educator who is “compassionate about the world and teaching without discrimination.”
In his daily work, Yan Wenyuan adheres to the principle of "punishing past mistakes to prevent future ones and curing illnesses to save people", and is unwilling to give up on any student easily.
Originally, he was thinking that after this competition was over, he would let third-year students like Sun Li realize the gap between them and Zhao Weihong, and then he would step forward to "punish them slightly and warn them severely" so that the third-year students, especially Sun Li, would get back on the right track.
Sun Li thought that the calculations in his mind were very "brilliant", but in front of the experienced Yan Wenyuan, his thoughts were as immature as those of a child.
Be it a "camp explosion" or a private conflict with Zhao Weihong, Yan Wenyuan no longer wanted to care about it.
He just wanted people like Sun Li to realize their mistakes and turn back to the right path, and not let the sweat and hard work they put in at HKUST over the past two years go to waste.
After all, the third-year students' behavior has become like this, and he, as the principal, is also responsible.
Originally, Yan Wenyuan just wanted to give Sun Li a "warning" punishment of neither too big nor too small. When Sun Li was about to go to the grassroots for internship, he would consider Sun Li's performance and decide whether to remove this punishment from Sun Li's file.
But now it seems that other third-year students can also transform into qualified soldiers and officers under the "inspiration" of Zhao Weihong.
But Sun Li, just like the evaluation he gave, is hopeless.
"headmaster."
He was surprised to see that the principal, who usually had a gentle face, actually showed such an angry look towards him.
Sun Li, who had just looked like he was ready to fight to the death with Zhao Weihong, immediately looked very flustered, and stammered as he tried to explain to Yan Wenyuan, or even admit his mistake.
However, the reason why he was willing to lower his "proud" head to Yan Wenyuan was not because he realized his mistake.
But it was because Sun Li knew very well that Yan Wenyuan had the ability to influence his future.
In fact, Sun Li is more suitable to be a businessman.
A businessman who is mercenary and shrewd, always calculating others, even himself.
Instead of choosing to come to military school, try to join this glorious collective that emphasizes sacrifice and dedication!
"enough!"
Yan Wenyuan looked at the helpless Sun Li without any sympathy in his heart. He waved his hand and announced the "verdict" for Sun Li.
"Since you don't even have the most basic respect of a soldier, there's no need for you to stay here."
"Go back and pack your things."
"Get ready to change your place and start your life again."
"."
He blinked in confusion.
After a brief moment of surprise, Sun Li suddenly realized what Yan Wenyuan's words meant, and immediately pleaded with Yan Wenyuan in a tone mixed with despair and fear!
"Principal, I'm not going anywhere!"
"I'm already a junior, so I can do an internship soon!"
"If you are not satisfied with anything about me, please point it out and I will change it immediately. I will definitely change it!"
Sun Li's voice was like the desperate howl of a trapped beast, and it was extremely miserable.
However, Zhao Weihong, who had already run three kilometers in 8 minutes 11 seconds, was indifferent when she heard it. She even stopped Huang Xuefeng who wanted to go forward to see what was going on.
If Sun Li was a grassroots soldier, an ignorant recruit.
Even if he has conflicts with Zhao Weihong, Zhao Weihong will not add insult to injury. She will even try to educate Sun Li and try to make him reform.
But who is Sun Li?
A student of the University of Science and Technology, a future officer-in-chief of the Yan Country!
At this time, Zhao Weihong, who had once reformed and influenced people like Ma Weijie, could no longer continue to adhere to the principle of "punishing past mistakes to prevent future ones and curing the illness to save the patient" to see if he could save Sun Li.
Because letting people like him serve as grassroots cadres is irresponsible to the army!
Zhao Weihong also cannot tolerate people like Sun Li, who might one day become a grassroots official!
"Ugh"
Looking at Sun Li's hysterical appearance, Yan Wenyuan sighed and waved his hand wearily.
"Take him back to the dormitory and don't embarrass yourself here."
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two burly men with the rank of non-commissioned officers stepped forward. They looked like Yan Wenyuan's guards. They directly lifted up the struggling Sun Li from the left and right, and dragged him towards the dormitory.
During this time, Sun Li's wails continued to echo in the training ground.
Many new students who passed the college entrance examination and came to USTC were very confused when they saw this. They didn't understand why Sun Li looked so miserable, like a pig being slaughtered.
Simply put, from this moment on, Sun Li is no longer a student of USTC, nor is he a soldier.
What awaits him is a transfer to a local university named Tanzhou, which is a counterpart to USTC. It is also a prestigious university. As long as Sun Li is willing to work hard, he can still get his diploma. What happened today will not have any impact on his future.
But if Sun Li is unwilling to accept this result and still wants to stay in USTC, or is "picky" and wants to go to other better universities.
What awaits him then will be the more severe punishment of "expulsion", which will also be recorded in his file!
Even if Sun Li returned to his hometown and took the college entrance examination again.
All the colleges and universities he applied to might refuse to admit him because of this record in their file!
This is also the only choice faced by all local freshmen who are not adapted to military academy life.
Or, go to a local university that corresponds to the military academy to continue your studies.
Either that or you will be dropped out of school. There is no other option.
Some people may think that this approach is too harsh.
After all, students who can pass the college entrance examination and come to HKUST are extremely rare "dragons and phoenixes among men."
With their grades, if they didn’t come to HKUST or other military academies, they might have been able to go to other universities with better rankings than HKUST.
If such an approach is really taken, would it be a bit of a delay or even a waste of talent?
This consideration may be reasonable, but people must always be responsible for the choices they make.
It's like the old saying.
The army is actually not a very "remarkable" place.
You can come or go.
But you can’t come and go as you please!
What's more, the benefits that Sun Li has enjoyed at USTC over the years, including room and board, free tuition, regular distribution of daily necessities, and even a monthly allowance, can't be enjoyed in vain, right?
Yan Wenyuan did not expel him directly, but gave him the opportunity to complete his studies at other universities. This can be said to be very kind!
In fact, Yan Wenyuan has another choice.
That is to deprive Sun Li of his "military status" and make him a student without military status.
Although there are few such students, there are some. Most of them are talents who are preparing to engage in scientific research. In the future, they may have advantages over students with military status in terms of staying in school and finding employment.
Correspondingly, this type of students are not "guaranteed a job" and do not need to do internships at the grassroots level in their senior year. They have plenty of time to prepare for postgraduate entrance exams or find employment.
But after a brief consideration, Yan Wenyuan gave up this plan.
Allowing people like Sun Li to continue to stay in USTC is not only an indulgence to him, but also irresponsible to Zhao Weihong who stood up!
What if this kid goes crazy and tries to "plot against" Zhao Weihong with his weapons?
Even if Sun Li had a weapon, he was no match for Zhao Weihong.
But how can one guard against thieves for a thousand days?
What if Zhao Weihong made a mistake accidentally?
Yan Wenyuan didn't dare to imagine how he should explain to Deputy Chief Wei!
Just let Sun Li be the chicken to scare the monkeys!
His departure showed everyone the determination of Yan Wenyuan and Zhao Weihong to change the "unhealthy trends" in USTC!
Although it seems like a lot has happened.
However, not much time actually passed on the training ground.
However, this was enough for many students who were always in the first echelon to complete the competition, and they looked at Zhao Weihong, who was standing in the distance with an expressionless face, with a look of grief for the loss of the rabbit.
"Haozi."
"I know."
He withdrew his gaze from the direction where Sun Li left.
Wang Hao gritted his teeth and spoke with great difficulty.
"Everyone, take a good rest and prepare for the next subject competition."
"In these three kilometers, we have already lost the top three positions, and we also lost Sun Li."
"If the next subject is still like this, we, the juniors, will be completely disgraced!"
"it is good"
And Yan Wenyuan didn't seem to have any intention of ending the competition because of this brief episode.
After giving a few instructions to Huang Yong, Yan Wenyuan walked back to the podium slowly.
"Principal, have you persuaded Sun Li to quit?"
He glanced at the director of the school affairs department who seemed very anxious in front of him.
Yan Wenyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and after a long while, he nodded meaningfully.
"Yes." "How can this be possible?"
After getting Yan Wenyuan's confirmation, the director of the school affairs department immediately became excited!
"If you want to persuade a freshman to drop out, I will definitely not say a word!"
"But Sun Li is already a junior! How should this report be written?"
Just like the grassroots.
Although the chief officer has the power to punish officers and soldiers under his command who make mistakes.
However, the reasons and content of the punishment must be submitted to the superior authority for review in the form of a written report.
As a directly affiliated university, HKUST has a higher authority or a higher authority.
That would bring us to Deputy Chief Wei.
On the surface, this incident may not seem like a big deal.
Every year, USTC has to persuade several freshmen to drop out because they "have a weak sense of dedication to national defense and are not suitable for studying at USTC." Deputy Chief Wei has never had any opinion on this, or even criticized the work of USTC.
But Sun Li is a junior and has already spent two years at HKUST!
How come there were no problems before, but problems occurred in the junior year when I should have adapted to military school life?
This is not Sun Li's personal problem, but a mistake in the daily work of USTC, which has failed to fulfill its responsibility to guide and educate the students!
The director of the school affairs department had a simple idea.
As the "water and wood of the army" and a holy place that countless grassroots soldiers yearn for, how could the University of Science and Technology of China have any inadequate work? How could it be covered with such a stain?
Thinking of this, the director of the school affairs department glared fiercely at Zhao Weihong who was standing near the runway, and complained to Yan Wenyuan in a very indignant tone.
"Principal, I'm not being nosy, but aren't you being too indulgent towards Zhao Weihong?"
"This kid is really capable, we all know that."
"But he's still a young man!"
"Being young and frivolous, and complacent, will lead to great losses!"
"Look, he's only been at HKUST for a few days. How many things have he already caused?"
"Could it be that this is all the fault of others and has nothing to do with him, the person involved?"
"A fly won't bite an egg without cracks!"
The comments made by the director of the school affairs department are a clear example of the "victim" blaming theory.
It seems that in his opinion, Zhao Weihong should turn a blind eye to the "unhealthy trends" in USTC, spend these four years in a "good relationship" with everyone, and then return to the grassroots as an officer to show his skills and ambitions while continuing to maintain and promote the "myth" of USTC, just like the other promoted trainees have chosen!
However, Zhao Weihong was still wearing his military uniform.
Then it is impossible for him to stand idly by and remain indifferent to these things!
Has it always been this way?
By pointing out the mistake, you become the one who is wrong?
Fortunately, Zhao Weihong did not hear the remarks made by the director of the school affairs department.
Otherwise, with his temper, he wouldn't care whether the director of the school affairs department has a star on his shoulder or not, he would definitely have a quarrel with him!
"Principal? Are you talking?"
"Would you like to reconsider this?"
After complaining for a long time, Yan Wenyuan didn't respond.
The director of the school affairs department then urged Yan Wenyuan in a slightly impatient tone.
His two sentences of urging did work, causing Yan Wenyuan, who had been staring at the main building of USTC in a daze, to retract his gaze.
"Old Zheng, how many years have we known each other?"
Seeing Yan Wenyuan suddenly bring up this matter, the director of the school affairs department was obviously stunned, but he quickly reacted and answered.
"Twelve years."
"I was in the school affairs department before you became the principal."
"After so many years, you became the principal, and I became the director of the school affairs department."
"Why do you bring this up all of a sudden?"
"hehe."
Hearing this, Yan Wenyuan smiled faintly and did not answer the director of the school affairs department's question. Instead, he expressed his sincere gratitude to the director of the school affairs department in a very sighing tone.
"Thank you for your hard work over the years."
"Without you, our school's administrative work would not have been recognized and praised by our superiors so many times."
Upon hearing this, the director of the school affairs department was about to modestly say "this is all my job", but Yan Wenyuan continued talking to himself.
"But just because our work has been recognized by our superiors doesn't mean that our work has been perfect and flawless."
As soon as these words were spoken, the director of the school affairs department suddenly became furious, and his lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something, but Yan Wenyuan did not give him a chance to speak!
"When the former European overlord still adhered to the old tactical thinking, believing that the strongest and largest Maginot Line could keep the enemy out of the country once and for all."
"The steel torrent that appeared at the same time made the Maginot Line a joke in military history, and also made trench warfare, a tactic that had been popular for decades, be completely swept into the dustbin of history."
"Old Zheng, you and I are soldiers. We cannot stop for even a moment, or we will be abandoned by the times!"
“You asked me how to write this report?”
"My answer is just three words."
On the training ground.
The second competition has begun, the 400-meter steeplechase.
This is probably the most challenging subject for military academy cadets, but also the one they are most reluctant to face.
It can only be said that Wang Hao and others’ luck is not very good.
The “military record holder at the army level” in Zhao Weihong’s title refers to the 400-meter hurdles!
The moment Zhao Weihong started running on the obstacle course.
The entire training ground was filled with the sound of "gasps", accompanied by exclamations such as "Holy shit" and "Is this still a human being?" from time to time.
No matter what the final result of this competition is.
With these two projects alone, Zhao Weihong was able to make all third-year students realize the gap between them and grassroots fighters and real soldiers.
Yan Wenyuan remained silent, with a smile on his face as he watched Zhao Weihong galloping across the obstacle course.
It was not until the moment when Zhao Weihong returned to the starting point that Yan Wenyuan spoke softly to the director of the school affairs department in front of him in a calm but irrefutable tone, accompanied by exclamations and cheers like a tsunami.
"Write it as it is."
"school"
"All right."
"If you find it difficult to write this report, you can let me know."
"I'll go find someone else who can write it."
"Old Zheng."
All of a sudden.
Ten minutes ago, the chilling feeling that frightened Sun Li instantly enveloped the entire body of the director of the school affairs department.
until now.
This old acquaintance of Yan Wenyuan, the director of the school affairs department of USTC who is in charge of all work except "teaching and logistics", only then realized Yan Wenyuan's determination to rectify the "unhealthy trends" in the school!
Looking at Yan Wenyuan, who still had a smile on his face, he looked like a kind old man next door.
The director of the school affairs department shuddered uncontrollably, and walked behind Yan Wenyuan with a dusty face, without saying anything else.
After all, Yan Wenyuan has made it very clear.
If he finds the report difficult to write, Yan Wenyuan will go find someone else who can write it.
Of course, this also includes his position as the director of the school affairs department!
After the two "highlights" of the 3km and 400m hurdles were over.
This competition is nearing its end.
The rest of the students at HKUST are all practicing basic physical fitness such as “snake running” and “push-ups”.
without any exaggeration.
For such a basic subject, even if Zhao Weihong had to "challenge" all the third-year students present in a round-robin battle, Zhao Weihong would not be afraid!
Although this statement may seem a bit exaggerated, it is an indisputable fact.
Because Zhao Weihong has something that Wang Hao and others don’t have at all, a steel will tempered by grassroots military life!
Even if they grit their teeth and hold on, Zhao Weihong can still wear them down!
Without any surprise, Zhao Weihong successfully won the first place in this competition!
"Call Wei Hong over!"
After the competition was over, Yan Wenyuan, who had watched the whole process, could not wait any longer and immediately called Zhao Weihong to his side and spoke straight to the point.
"You choose between the position of captain and instructor!"
