Principal Yan, the first to receive us, wanted to pass the buck, asked us to talk with branch campus again. I didn’t recognize it and replied “OK OK OK”. Zhang got heated, beat the desk and raised his voice:” Aren’t you passing the buck?” Principal Yan got heated, too. He also raised his voice:” What’s your attitude you talking to me?! You will suffer in society with this attitude.” Hum, if Zhang’s attitude will suffer in society, my attitude will die in society.
I reason to them, they play the hoodlum. I play the hoodlum to them, they reason.
In the society of China, people bully the weak and be afraid of the strong. Honest man always suffer losses.
If you do not raise your voice, you can’t handle affairs.
Since Zhang beat the desk and broke into their meeting room, Principal Yan was scared and invited the President Jiang, also a master hand of playing the hoodlum. She promised giving us feedback before the National Day at last. I asked her to write down this promise, but she rejected it resolutely. She said:” I’m the president of this school, a 74-year-old women, retired cadres. This kind of person is talking with you, will I cheat? You ask me to write it down, indicating that you do not believe me. I won’t write.”
At that time I was shocked and could not reply to this. Back to home, I find it very funny. There’s no absolute trust between people. Though girls and boys love each other very deeply, they also go to Bureau of Civil Affairs to register for the marriage. When presidents of 2 countries have meeting, they also sign agreement in the end. You just a principal of a small school, why won’t you cheat?
