A reborn mother longs for her daughter's happiness.

Chapter 194 Building Dreams in the Mountains

In the spacious, bright, and luxuriously decorated conference room of the Li Group, around the huge oval conference table sat Li Yuan and her senior management team with serious expressions. General Manager Sister Chen sat next to Li Yuan, tapping her pen lightly on her notebook. Everyone else was also sitting upright. The atmosphere was not as oppressive as expected, but rather filled with a sense of eager excitement.

Li Yuan broke the silence first. She leaned forward, placed her hands on the table, and looked at everyone with a firm gaze: "Everyone, we recently visited families in the mountains and saw the learning environment of those children. It must have been heartbreaking for you all, right? The reason I called you all here today is to have a good discussion on how to create truly good learning conditions for the children. Please share your opinions and don't hold back!"

Sales Manager Wang spoke first, adjusting his glasses with a hint of excitement: "Chairman Li, I think the most urgent task is to improve the facilities. Those classrooms are dilapidated, and the desks and chairs are missing parts. How can the children study in peace? Let's give the school a major renovation, replace the desks and chairs with brand new ones, and install modern teaching equipment, such as projectors and computers—we can't do without any of it!"

Li Yuan nodded in agreement, saying, "That's definitely the foundation. With the hardware in place, the children are more motivated to learn. Sister Chen, what do you think?"

Sister Chen cleared her throat and said clearly, "Hardware is important, but software is equally important. No matter how good the equipment is, it's useless without good teachers. We need to find a way to invite the best teachers to teach in the mountains, but that won't be easy; we need to offer some attractive conditions."

At this point, Director Zhao from the Human Resources Department chimed in: "I'm also worried about this! Good teachers are all in big cities, who would want to go to those remote mountains and forests? Even if you offer high salaries, I doubt many people would be willing. I think we should start with benefits and career development, providing them with some special perks, such as regular opportunities for further education, solving employment problems for their family members, and housing subsidies."

Li Yuan stroked her chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "These ideas are all good, but we also need to consider the teachers' long-term development. We can't let them leave after a few years; we need to help them truly take root there. I think we can cooperate with some normal universities to establish special scholarships to encourage outstanding graduates to teach in mountainous areas. At the same time, we can establish teacher training bases in the local areas so that teachers can continuously improve their teaching skills."

Mr. Sun, the marketing manager, brightened up and said excitedly, “Chairman Li, this is a great idea! Our marketing department can also organize some promotional activities to publicize the current situation of children in mountainous areas and our plans, so as to attract social attention and support. This way, we can not only recruit more excellent teachers, but also attract more caring people and enterprises to participate in this project.”

"This publicity needs to be carefully planned. Don't turn it into one of those dry public service advertisements. It needs to make people want to join in," Li Yuan added with a smile. "We need to let everyone know that this is not only about helping children in mountainous areas, but also about cultivating future talents for society."

Everyone was chatting enthusiastically. Suddenly, Zhang, the manager of the technology department who had been silent until now, spoke up: "I was thinking, besides sending teachers to the mountainous areas, could we use internet technology to allow excellent teachers in the city to teach the children online? This would solve the problem of insufficient teachers and allow children to access a wider range of educational resources."

This suggestion was a breath of fresh air, and Sister Chen immediately chimed in: "That's a novel idea, but online teaching also has its limitations, such as unstable network connections and poor interactivity. We need to find ways to overcome these problems and ensure the quality of teaching."

After a moment's thought, Li Yuan said, "This is a good direction. We can take a two-pronged approach. We can invite excellent teachers to teach at the school offline, and use internet technology to introduce more high-quality courses online. Manager Zhang, you are responsible for researching with the technical team on how to optimize the online teaching plan to ensure network stability and a good interactive experience."

Manager Zhang nodded quickly, indicating that he would definitely complete the task.

At this point in the discussion, the atmosphere in the meeting room reached its climax, and everyone was full of confidence in this challenging yet significant project.

Looking at the spirited team, Li Yuan smiled with satisfaction: "Everyone's ideas are fantastic. The next step is implementation. I hope each department can develop a detailed plan as soon as possible. Let's work together to ensure that children in mountainous areas enjoy quality education."

At this moment, Manager Wang said half-jokingly, "Chairman Li, if this project is successful, our group will become a great savior for children, and we might even gain a bunch of 'little fans'!"

Everyone laughed, and Li Yuan responded with a smile: "We're not here to be saviors, nor for the sake of fans; we just want to genuinely help these children change their destinies. When the project succeeds and the children become successful, that will be our greatest achievement."

After the meeting, everyone returned to their posts with renewed enthusiasm and began working on the mountain education plan. Li Yuan and Sister Chen stayed in the meeting room to continue discussing some details.

Looking at the documents in her hand, Sister Chen said with some worry, "Chairman Li, this project is quite difficult and requires a large investment. Moreover, we will definitely encounter all sorts of unexpected problems along the way. Do you think we can make it go smoothly?"

Li Yuan leaned back in her chair, full of confidence, and said, "Sister Chen, I know this won't be easy, but isn't the purpose of running a business to solve problems? As long as we have a clear goal and the team works together, there are no difficulties we can't overcome. Besides, for those children, we have to grit our teeth and persevere no matter how big the difficulties are!"

Sister Chen nodded, inspired by Li Yuan's determination: "You're right, let's cheer each other on!"

In the days that followed, all departments of the Li Group worked intensively on this mountain education project. From negotiating cooperation with teacher training colleges to formulating teacher recruitment plans; from developing the technology for online teaching platforms to planning and executing marketing campaigns, every step reflected everyone's hard work and dedication. Li Yuan and Sister Chen acted like two tireless commanders, constantly monitoring the project's progress, coordinating resources from all parties, and resolving various difficulties.

As time goes by, this mountain education plan, which carries countless hopes, is gradually transforming from a blueprint into reality, and the fate of those children in the mountains is quietly changing...
