Chapter 276: Semi-Military Management! You'll Get Used to the Pain After a While!

These people were in their forties or fifties; they had probably drawn more "big pies" for their employees than he ever had.

It would be strange if they believed it as soon as they heard it!

"I plan to invest no less than five hundred million yuan into Yanhu Vocational School over the next five years!"

Hearing Su Yang's words, the high-level executives of Yanhu Education couldn't help but sit up straight.

Everything else is fake; only money is real!

That's five hundred million yuan in funding!

If Su Yang could truly do as he said, Yanhu Education might usher in even greater development!

The issue that has always plagued private junior colleges is actually a lack of funding!

Whether it's a private junior college or a private university, neither receives state funding.

Everything must be self-sufficient, which is why students' tuition fees are so high!

For ordinary public second-tier universities, the annual tuition might be around 3,500 to 6,000 yuan.

But what about private junior colleges? It's normal for annual tuition to exceed ten thousand yuan.

The tuition fees collected by Yanhu Vocational School are around 10,000 to 15,000 yuan per year, not including other expenses!

Some people who run private junior colleges truly treat them as ATMs, only taking money out without investing any back.

Yanhu Vocational School faced the same problem.

In the last two years, Dongcheng Group hasn't invested any funds into Yanhu Vocational School; instead, they withdraw tens of millions in profits from the school every year, leaving only operating funds and the interest that needs to be paid to the bank.

They also knew about the problems Dongcheng Group was facing, but they still felt aggrieved!

Now that they heard Su Yang say he would invest five hundred million, it would be strange if they weren't excited!

Kong Lifan asked in a low voice, "Boss, is this for real?"

"Of course it's real!" Su Yang said softly. "I've always been a man of my word!"

Kong Lifan said excitedly, "That's truly wonderful!"

He still very much wanted to build a successful career!

Even if Su Yang was bragging a bit and exaggerated the amount... even if there wasn't five hundred million, cutting it in half and giving Yanhu Education 250 million would be good too!

Moreover, this also showed Su Yang's attitude: he wouldn't treat Yanhu Education as an ATM!

He would invest money into Yanhu Education!

"Besides that, I will also consider giving the faculty and staff of Yanhu Education and Yanhu Vocational School a raise!"

The executives present all smiled.

If everyone was getting a raise, would they be left out?

"What I focus on more is the educational management of the school!" Su Yang said seriously, lightly tapping the desk. "This must be prioritized; we need to manage things a bit more strictly."

"Does it need to be even stricter?" President Chen Qingzhou asked tentatively. "Semi-Military Management?"

Su Yang nodded. "It's not out of the question!"

The three presidents and Vice Presidents looked at each other; they felt that this was becoming a bit tricky!

There were very few private vocational colleges in the province that implemented Semi-Military Management.

Junior colleges and vocational institutions with Semi-Military Management were mainly concentrated among public institutions.

For example, vocational colleges involving aviation or the police!

But is Semi-Military Management effective?

Of course it is!

Semi-Military Management not only improves students' discipline and organization.

It also fosters teamwork spirit and self-management abilities... and it puts parents' minds at ease!

"We can have Semi-Military Management, but don't make it too closed-off!" Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "These students will eventually enter society after graduation, and we must give them a process of adaptation!"

Chen Qingzhou whispered, "Boss, if we implement Semi-Military Management... management costs will increase!"

Su Yang nodded with a smile. "I can accept that!"

Chen Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good then!"

"Also, we must strictly enforce discipline and the academic atmosphere!" Su Yang continued. "For those who are truly troublemakers, we can consider expulsion or withdrawal. We can give Counselors a certain quota for expulsions... it won't affect their performance reviews, but our review process must be strict; we can't just expel students randomly!"

Some students can be saved, while others truly cannot.

If everyone could be saved... then there would be no need for the death penalty!

The students at Yanhu Vocational School are all over eighteen; they are considered adults.

They should be responsible for their own actions!

After experiencing and seeing more of society, Su Yang's heart had also hardened!

In a shop, a single arrogant and domineering well-connected person can cause all employees to lose their passion for work.

In a class, a single bad apple will not only affect the entire class.

It will also affect the teacher's passion for teaching!

It must be admitted that many teachers also have a sense of professional pride when they first enter a school!

But some troublemakers truly dare to strike their teachers!

Since Su Yang intended to strengthen management, he definitely had to slightly increase the teachers' power and wechat!

If he had to make a sacrifice, he would certainly sacrifice the very small number of incorrigible bad students.

To protect the vast majority of other students who were either obedient, didn't cause trouble, followed management, or wanted to seriously learn knowledge and skills!

Just expelling a few students... how much money could that possibly make?

If they go out and get into trouble after graduation, that would also bring shame to the school!

Su Yang would try his best to ensure that students could learn useful knowledge at the school.

He would also try his best to ensure their "employment"!

But he absolutely didn't want scum and dregs; it was better to let them get lost as early as possible!

Of course, there were certainly some bad people among the teachers as well.

Su Yang wouldn't show any mercy when dealing with them!

The three presidents of Yanhu Vocational School all felt some pressure.

They could truly see that this new boss seemed a bit strict!

In the office, Jiang Yuzhen's eyes sparkled as she looked at Su Yang.

When she first entered the office, she had actually felt a bit nervous seeing several junior college presidents.

She was originally a good student who had only graduated a year ago; the authority of college teachers and presidents still had an effect on her!

Now, hearing Su Yang talk about strictly enforcing the school's atmosphere and academic standards, which made several presidents look solemn, she felt that Su Yang was glowing at this moment!

Regarding Su Yang's idea to strictly manage the school, Jiang Yuzhen naturally supported it with both hands!

That's exactly how it should be done!

A vocational school is also in the business of education; being a bit stricter is not wrong. It's being responsible to the students and parents!

Finally, Su Yang had Kong Lifan, the General Manager of Yanhu Education, organize a general meeting for all employees of Yanhu Education and the vocational school. He still had to make an appearance to announce the raises to everyone!

The salaries of vocational school teachers weren't high; despite many of them being Master's Graduates, their salaries were only four to eight thousand yuan!

Who would enter a private junior college if they could enter a public one?

Furthermore, the turnover rate for teachers at private junior colleges was quite high!

Of course, these were just the surface-level situations Su Yang understood.

In the time to come, he would certainly take a good look and sort out Yanhu Vocational School!

At the very least, he had to make the school's teachers put more energy into their teaching tasks!

After all, these teachers didn't have the research tasks of traditional university teachers.

Su Yang still placed quite a bit of importance on this school.

His current workload wasn't too heavy, and he also hoped to be responsible for the students!

Moreover, doing education and training indeed had a bright future and fit his system abilities.

It could also help his other companies.

Yanhu Vocational School might experience some growing pains, and all the faculty and students would "feel the pain."

But as long as it hurts for a little while... they'll get used to it!
