Chapter 183 Unexpected joy
A few days later, Professor Paul came to his house in person.
Tell him a news: He and three professors from the Department of Politics jointly wrote a letter of recommendation to the college and initiated a motion to hire Lu Yongzhi as a visiting professor in the Department of Politics at Trinity College, Oxford University.
After a debate by the school committee in the morning, it finally passed with a weak majority.
He is the only person who has been hired as a professor since the founding of Oxford's school without academic papers and academic achievements. The reason for passing is also very simple. In order to reflect Oxford's inclusive and free academic style, only talent is the purpose of running the school.
Later, Paul said regretfully that if you can quote classics and draw on the academic achievements of your predecessors in your speech, you can be hired as a professor by Oxford. In recent years, you can go to the Trinity College library to read more books, even if it is Marx's book, as long as you can publish a few papers, he is willing to make more efforts.
I felt a little happy in my heart. There are no Oxford graduates in China yet, right? I originally wanted to get Oxford’s graduation certificate and prepare myself for my appearance by letting Nova get a diploma. However, if I want to get Oxford’s graduation certificate, I have to study at school for at least four years. This investment is really too great.
Lu Yongzhi even thought that a newly established school in the UK and not very famous is bought in disguise through donation. Or, directly get a fake doctoral certificate from a general university in London. In Qian Zhongshu's "The Siege", did not Fang Hongjian just buy a fake diploma from Clayden University?
Unexpectedly, happiness came too suddenly, and a speech gave me the title of a visiting professor.
For a time, I really wanted to find Marx's "Das Kapital" to read for a year or two. With the basic skills of Marx in school, it was no problem to write a few papers. Moreover, there are too few people who study Marx now, and even if these papers are not profound enough, the probability of passing is very high.
If you return to China with the brand of Oxford's genuine professor, it will be easy to become an official and become a minister or even a prime minister in the Beiyang government; if you don't want to become an official, you will definitely be the top student no matter which university you are in.
Yes, there is no time. A major change in Chinese history is about to begin. An era that is no less than the competition between the three countries is about to begin. How can you get the right identity of a time traveler without personally participating?
Lu Yongzhi was ecstatic, but smiled calmly on his face: "I am very grateful for everyone's kindness. But if I am not determined here, I have to return to my miserable country and do something steadily for her."
At that time, he had already received news that Cen Chunxuan had been transferred from the position of governor of Guangdong and Guangxi to the court and served as the Minister of Posts and Communications. He was working with the Minister of Military Affairs Zhai Hongxi to carry out the activities of the anti-Prince and Prince Yili and Yuan Shikai. He also knew that this event would end with the fall of Cen Chunxuan and Zhai Hongxi.
Paul shrugged and said, "Are you going to be involved in politics?"
I can't be the trendsetter of the times, but I can be the most active of the trendsetters."
I don't want to change history, but history changes because of me, that's not my reason."
Sister-in-law, come over to say hello to Professor Paul." Lu Yongzhi called out to Martha, who had just returned from buying vegetables outside.
Martha had put away her precious jewelry, but she just hung a chicken-shaped gold necklace on her chest. The pendant was just sandwiched between her peaks, shaking from time to time, seducing people's eyes."
You are talking about her? Wow, it’s a pity that such a beautiful woman goes to the Women’s College to study. She should go to the fashion market to be a model, which will definitely attract the attention of the public.”
Luo was amazed and did not hide his appreciation gaze.
Do you have fashion models in the UK now? In such a conservative country, women could not reveal their flesh when they were wearing clothes a few years ago, but now they are as open as France?
"Professor Paul, you see, she doesn't stand or sit or sit. She just goes out to be a model and makes people laugh to death?"
Yongzhi glanced at Martha rolling his eyes fiercely against Professor Paul's back. He ignored her and continued, "
If she could study in the Women's College for a few years and cultivate some aristocratic temperament, then the Taiwanese style would be very different. Besides, when others saw that they were top students from Oxford and beautiful women, they wouldn't be able to not cause a sensation."
Sha probably heard the praise for being a beautiful woman, her face was a little red and her eyes were dizzy. She stood in front of the dining table, lowering her head and fiddling with the tablecloth in her hand. She glanced at them from time to time.
Paul helped his eyes and had a good meal.
"I really suggest to the school that I will have to be mixed with men and women in the future. The school is too conservative in this regard. The University of Paris and many universities in the United States are mixed with men and women. Why can't we Oxford be the first to be a trend?"
Professor, let’s talk about what’s happening in front of us first. How can we get her to study in the Women’s College?"
When Paul looked at him, he interrupted him directly.
I did find the dean of the Women's College. She still wants to study in the preparatory course first and pass the exam one year later. Of course, there is a workaround. She can enroll first, but she has no academic qualifications. She can pass the exam and then re-issue the academic qualifications."
"It's not good to send her in first, and then rely on her own efforts. Whether she can read it is her own business."
Paul stammered: "The dean said that the college's library is too small, and I have applied for the school committee several times but it has not been approved. The school's funding has always been very tight, and it may not work without personal donations."
Hi, I said it earlier, it’s just a library. I donated 50,000 pounds to build a new one, so I can buy books for the extra money.”
Yongzhi immediately took out the check book and wrote a check, handed it to Paul. Paul took it, flicked the check with his finger, and smiled and said, "
In this way, I will be able to talk too much, so I will go to their dean now."
Luo stood up, looked at Martha deeply again, and said goodbye.
"It costs so much money to go to school? What's wrong with £50,000?" Martha complained.
Problems that can be solved with money are not problems. I am afraid that problems that cannot be solved even if I spend money, that is the real problem."
Yongzhi stood up and said, "Let's go to the kitchen, I'll teach you a few home-cooked dishes, and the cooking task will be yours in the future."
"I'm so rich, I can't bear to hire a maid." Martha muttered again."
You know, this big room likes the dishes I cooked by myself. Alas, let me tell you to pay attention to Professor Paul. His eyes look at you are a little wrong. Stay away from him if you have nothing to do."
"He is not very good, knowledgeable, gentle, professor, and rich."
Go, why don’t you say he is in his forties and has a wife? Warn you, don’t make any scandals for me, harming others and yourself.”
Yongzhi took an iron spoon and knocked her head.
"I think you're jealous."
Martha made a face and picked up the dishes and washed them aside.
Lu Yongzhi took out 100,000 pounds, 50,000 pounds to build a library, and 50,000 pounds to establish a Sino-English Cultural Exchange Fund. This fund was specially used for female students from Nanyang Public School to study in Oxford.
A college also held a political department and Philosophy tutors attended a small ceremony and formally hired Lu Yongzhi as a visiting professor. This was just an honor and he needed to communicate and negotiate in advance in class.
His requirements are not high, and he submits a report on China's political situation to the Department of Politics every year, and has the opportunity to give several speeches.
It's been more than a year since I came out, and it's time to return to China.
