Chapter 1097's results are too outstanding.
Tang Zheng thought for a moment, "If that's the case, then let's keep our children on the island to study!"
Wang Liwen and Grandma Wang exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief. They were used to life on the island, and the educational environment here was truly excellent; there was no need for them to go to the city.
Tang Zheng thought this way for two reasons: firstly, he wanted to provide his child with a good educational environment, and secondly, he wanted to bring his wife and child to the city so he could see his child every day.
Unlike now, he only comes back from the city to reunite with his family on weekends or when he has time off.
Just then, Tang Zheng's phone rang. Seeing the name on the screen, he immediately answered, "Mr. Zhao, hello! How can I help you?"
Mr. Zhao's voice came through weakly, and he was even a little out of breath, "Tang Zheng, I know you're from Sifang Island. Could you transfer my son to a middle school on Sifang Island?"
Tang Zheng was taken aback. "President Zhao, I would like to help you, but some rules really can't be changed, and the people on our island can't make the decision either. The main administrators are the military, and apart from those with direct family ties on Sifang Island, no one else can. I've already asked many people to pull strings, and I've asked my uncle, but no one will make an exception."
Mr. Zhao sighed, "Oh, I really can't do anything about it! I can't control this brat at home. He's only in junior high school and he's already trying to pick up girls. It's normal to have feelings for the opposite sex during puberty, but he shouldn't have gotten into a fight over pursuing a girl. He's not even fully grown yet, and he's driving me crazy."
Tang Zheng comforted him, "President Zhao, please calm down. Let's deal with things slowly. I'll go back this afternoon and invite you out for tea to calm down."
Mr. Zhao had only made the call as a trial, not expecting it to be successful. "Okay, let's have tea together this afternoon."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Zheng looked surprised. "Our school on Sifang Island has really... become famous."
Wang Liwen said proudly, "Of course, it's become a huge hit."
Not long after, Tang Zheng received another phone call, also from someone wanting to transfer the child over.
Liu Meilan and Liu Yiwen also received such a call. Liu Meilan, who was preparing a seafood feast, was dragged away by Zhang Xiufang.
"Answer the phone quickly," Zhang Xiufang said with a smile. "I'll take care of it here."
Liu Meilan had no choice but to answer the phone; they were all calls from business partners who wanted to send their children to study there.
Professor Xie also received calls from his colleagues, inquiring about how to study at Sifang Island.
During the meal, Professor Xie remarked, "It's really strange. I know the educational atmosphere in our Sifang Island schools is good, but it's unusual to see so many people calling to find connections to get into our schools!"
The group looked at each other, none of them knowing the reason.
"Wait a moment, I'll call Xiaoyu," Liu Meilan said. Recently, Tang Xiaoyu has been paying more attention to children's education and has been interacting with more people in Shenzhen, so she should know more about the real situation.
Everyone stopped eating and waited for Liu Meilan to call.
Liu Meilan quickly got through to Tang Xiaoyu on the phone. "Xiaoyu, a lot of people called me, my second brother, and my mom today... Do you know why?"
"I know, of course I know," Tang Xiaoyu said excitedly. Luckily, she had already transferred her two children's household registration to the island. "Actually, I received the call earlier than you did, and I started looking into it. It was because of their grades. After the children from Sifang Island went to high school, many top students emerged."
“Top students are a minority, and parents may feel that their children may not have that kind of intelligence, so they give up after realizing that it is impossible. But it’s different now. In the recently concluded National Games, Shenzhen sent a lot of outstanding talents to the province, including those from sports schools and students.”
"Two of our swimming prodigies from Shenzhen No. 1 High School won gold medals in freestyle, breaststroke, and butterfly at the National Games. Most importantly, they broke records, and even world records. They also set records in sprints in track and field, and achieved good results in many other events such as football and basketball. Basically, all the students from our school have won awards, which will give them extra points in the college entrance examination, and most of them will be able to become professional athletes."
"After everyone tallied it up, they found that most of these students were from Sifang Island. If it were just one or two, it would be a coincidence, but with so many, there must be a connection. So we conducted physical fitness tests and medical examinations on these students and found that their physical fitness far exceeded that of other students of the same age, and they were also outstanding in terms of physical fitness and skills."
"This gives hope to many parents of students with average grades. Intelligence can't be changed, but sports can be trained, and they can work in related fields in the future, which is very promising. Just wait, there will probably be more calls in the future. I just called my dad and told him to push everything to the army, otherwise, with my dad's position as a small town mayor, he simply can't withstand the pressure from the higher-ups."
Liu Meilan nodded, "I see, I understand. If you have the data, please have someone compile a list for me."
"I understand," Tang Xiaoyu replied. "I'll have someone fax it to you tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay!" Liu Meilan nodded and hung up the phone.
Tang Ying hurriedly asked, "Are the students from Sifang Island really that amazing?"
Liu Meilan nodded, "That's how amazing they are! These are just the sports students; there are also art and music students who haven't had their chance to shine yet. I estimate that next June, when these students achieve good results, they will surely create an even bigger stir."
Professor Xie frowned. "Now everyone knows, and everyone wants to send their children here to study. But our schools on Sifang Island are only big enough for the children of the island's residents and the military; they simply don't have the capacity to take in any more children."
Liu Yiwen smiled wryly, "Right now we have the army to back us up, but if the pressure from above gets too great, we probably won't be able to withstand it. What will we do then? We don't even have the space to expand the school!"
Grandpa Liu urged, "Let's eat. We can talk about this slowly. If we can't handle the pressure, we'll build a school then. If we can't build it on the island, we'll build it somewhere else."
“But they’ve got their faith in the reputation of Sifang Island School. They don’t recognize it when they build schools elsewhere!” Liu Meilan shook her head. “I don’t think things are as easy as they seem.”
Grandpa Liu smiled and said, "What's so difficult about that? Just fill in the nearby reefs to increase the area of Sifang Island, and then include them in the Sifang Island area."
Professor Xie hesitated, "There are research institutes up here, I'm worried..."
“Upgrade security!” Old Master Liu replied. “In addition, move the important military equipment away, leaving only a research institute, which is actually easy to manage. Those with money and connections who want to study here can just pay the tuition, and the money earned can be used to develop Sifang Island.”
