This time, would Director Xiao Wenxing also bring some good news?

"Ha ha ha ha, Principal Ding, I saw that news! Are you really going to donate 10 billion to set up the Feiyue Education Project Fund?"

On the phone, Director Xiao Wenxing asked with a laugh.

Just now, Director Xiao Wenxing had learned about this trending news from his subordinates. Being as busy as he was, he seldom had time to check Twitter on his phone, but once he knew about it, he made a call to Principal Ding right away.

"Yes, we anticipate that the Feiyue Education Project Fund of Mist City Arts and Science University will be established within a month. At the same time, the 10 billion I personally represent from Mist City Arts and Science University and Feiyue Group will also be deposited."

Ding Yue answered earnestly.

billion was no small sum for any large company; after all, it wasn’t just assets, but liquid funds.

Since Mist City Arts and Science University and Feiyue Group had started selling the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles, aside from the interest-free loans from the bank yet to be repaid and the costs incurred in manufacturing the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles, the cash available for liquidity purposes was several hundred billion, even if it wasn’t 100 billion.

"It’s really impressive! Mist City Arts and Science University has seen tremendous growth over the last two years, becoming a key national university, and Feiyue Group has become a company with huge potential. The Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles have become the best-selling and most popular cars in Xia Country."

Director Xiao Wenxing said excitedly.

He felt proud and honored to have such a prestigious private university under his jurisdiction during his tenure in Mist City.

"Director Xiao, the construction and development of Mist City Arts and Science University couldn’t have happened without your support, and the business development of Feiyue Group also depends on the support from Governor Li."

Ding Yue honestly said.

Whether it was Mist City Arts and Science University or Feiyue Group, their smooth development paths depended not only on their own strong capabilities but also on external support, such as the support from the Mist City Education Department and the industry chain support for Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group from Governor Li.

"That is true, but without your own efforts, even the support from the Education Department and the City Government wouldn’t have sufficed."

Director Xiao Wenxing said with a smile, "Now that Mist City Arts and Science University has established the Feiyue Education Project Fund, if there is anything the Education Department can help with in your philanthropic efforts, just let me know."

"Well... actually, Director Xiao, there really are some matters that need substantial support from the Education Department."

Ding Yue thought for a moment and, seeing as Director Xiao Wenxing was so open-handed, he did not hold back.

"Principal Ding, just say the word."

Director Xiao Wenxing asked, "What do you need our help with?"

"Well, Director Xiao, to survey the rural areas that need new elementary schools and to support disadvantaged students among other things, thousands of faculties and students from our Social Science Institute at Mist City Arts and Science University will carry out social investigations and gather statistics nationwide. I was thinking, perhaps the Education Department might also have relevant data; maybe we could exchange information?"

Ding Yue said earnestly, "Additionally, as our Social Science Institute’s faculties and students conduct these social investigations and gather statistics nationwide, they might encounter some difficulties and problems. Could the Education Department help coordinate with the local education authorities?"

These were the two main ways that Ding Yue envisioned the Mist City Education Department could assist.

One was data exchange.

The other was assisting the faculties and students from the Social Science Institute of Mist City Arts and Science University in coordinating with local officials to make their social surveys and statistical collection run more smoothly.

"No problem at all."

Director Xiao Wenxing agreed readily.

After all, these tasks were merely a matter of convenience for the Mist City Education Department.

"In terms of data, we can only provide a rough estimate and that too from a few years ago. However, it can still serve as a point of comparison and reference. Considering your Mist City Arts and Science University’s Sociology Department is embarking on this survey and statistics endeavor, I believe it can be conducted more credibly. If necessary, I can even have our City Education Department staff collaborate with you on this social survey and statistics."

Director Xiao Wenxing explained in detail.

"Thank you very much for your kind offer, Director Xiao," Ding Yue expressed his gratitude.

However, since it was his Mist City Arts and Science University’s Sociology Department undertaking this task, it wouldn’t be necessary to trouble the City Education Department, especially since its staff were busy managing all kinds of educational affairs throughout Mist City every day.

"Then, in terms of facilitating communication and coordination with various locales for your social survey and statistics team, our City Education Department absolutely must be involved,"

Director Xiao Wenxing said with a smile, "It is our duty."

"Thank you, Director Xiao, thank you for the Education Department’s strong support for our work at Mist City Arts and Science University!" Ding Yue earnestly thanked Director Xiao Wenxing again.

"Principal Ding, how much time do you think this round of social survey and statistics will require?"

Director Xiao Wenxing asked further.

"Our plan is to conduct a survey and produce a report every quarter. Then, at Feiyue Education Project Fund, we will proceed according to this report to strive to build more Feiyue Elementary Schools in needed areas and for the children."

Ding Yue explained, "But one quarter certainly isn’t enough for this round of social survey and statistics; hence, we are preparing to undertake this long-term. Ideal since this survey also doubles as a graduation thesis for the extensive student body of our Mist City Arts and Science University’s Sociology Department."

"Hahaha, Principal Ding, the teaching approach at your Mist City Arts and Science University is truly about practice being the key to real knowledge."

Director Xiao Wenxing could not help but laugh upon hearing this.

"As for university education, the knowledge is secondary, mastering practical skills is key,"

Ding Yue humbly remarked.

"Oh, by the way, Principal Ding, I almost forgot to mention another important matter."

On the phone, Director Xiao Wenxing suddenly remembered something and hurriedly spoke.

"Oh?"

Ding Yue, driven by curiosity, asked, "Director Xiao, what’s the matter?"

"Well, a friend working in Yancheng told me that to support the energy-saving and emission reduction policy, in a while, official institutions nationwide will likely start using your Feiyue Group’s Feiyue Future New Energy vehicles."

Director Xiao Wenxing said, "Of course, right now it’s just hearsay, I’m not sure whether it’s true or not, and our City Education Department hasn’t received any news yet. I also checked with Governor Li, and he mentioned no official documents have been received yet."

"Is that so?"

Ding Yue was somewhat surprised.

But then he thought, officials typically don’t use new energy vehicles, like the popular Tesla new energy vehicles domestically, which officials are not permitted to drive.

Could they really be considering letting officials use their Feiyue Group’s Feiyue Future New Energy vehicles this time?

"I think it’s quite unlikely, officials have yet no precedent of using new energy vehicles,"

Ding Yue pondered for a while, then speculated.

"Principal Ding, that’s not necessarily true," Director Xiao Wenxing said with a laugh.
