Chapter 959: Personally Requesting
After leaving the study abroad agency, Jiang Rong drove back home.
She really didn't expect that there would be study abroad agencies that wouldn't accept money from students. It seems that the school's requirements are indeed quite high.
Halfway through the journey, Jiang Rong made a U-turn at the intersection and rejoined the elevated road, heading straight for Lujiazui in Pudong.
She wasn't going to her brother-in-law. Although she considered it a minor matter, it wasn't a big deal to her brother-in-law. However, she didn't want to directly ask him for help, but she could ask his assistant, Gao Song, for assistance.
She could have just made a phone call, but Jiang Rong felt it was better to discuss it in person, as it would be a sign of respect for Gao Song, who was her brother-in-law's assistant, not her own.
After receiving the call, Gao Song first checked the schedule. Since the boss was currently having tea and discussing business with someone and wouldn't be able to contact him for a while, he instructed his secretaries to call him if the boss needed to reach him.
After making the arrangements, he went to the first floor.
As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw Jiang Rong and greeted her from a distance: "Teacher Jiang!" Not only did he greet her, but he also jogged over to greet her, which almost made the receptionist and security guards on the first floor drop their jaws in surprise.
Because they had never seen their Minister Gao so attentive to visiting guests before, it was truly an unprecedented sight. As a result, they all began to guess Jiang Rong's identity, but they couldn't figure it out no matter how long they tried.
Because his family rarely came to Huang Xiaochuan's office, most of the staff in the building didn't know who the big boss's family was. Only Gao Song, Li Huan, and others who had been with Huang Xiaochuan for a long time knew.
"I hope my visit hasn't disturbed your work, Assistant Gao?" Jiang Rong asked Gao Song politely.
Gao Song feigned displeasure and said, "Teacher Jiang, look at what you're saying. How about this, there's a coffee shop over there. I'd like you to sit down there for a while, have a cup of coffee, and if there's anything you need, we can sit down and talk slowly."
Jiang Rong naturally went along with the host's arrangements.
After the waiter placed the coffee in front of the two of them and left, Gao Song asked, "Teacher Jiang, if there's anything you need me to do, just tell me. I'll definitely do what I can. If there's something I can't do, I'll think of another way." Gao Song knew that his boss was very caring towards his family, so he naturally didn't dare to neglect him.
Jiang Rong was very satisfied with Gao Song's attitude, so she got straight to the point.
"Assistant Gao, it's like this. My niece, the one I asked you to arrange for her to intern at the Illusion Carlton Hotel last time, wants to do a short-term study at the Swiss Lausanne Hotel Management School in Singapore. So I went to a study abroad agency to check it out, but I didn't expect the school's admission requirements to be so high. The agency couldn't handle this case. But my niece is determined to go to this school, so I have to ask you for help again."
Upon hearing this, Gao Song knew that this matter was definitely not easy to handle; otherwise, those study abroad agencies wouldn't be turning down money.
However, although this matter may not be so easy, who is Gao Song? He is the first assistant of Huang Xiaochuan, the richest man in Asia. He is fully capable of solving this kind of problem.
However, as always, he had to report to his boss beforehand, since this matter involved the boss's family, and he could not and dared not make a decision on his own.
Thinking of this, Gao Song said earnestly to Jiang Rong, "Teacher Jiang, I understand the situation. Well, I can't give you an answer right now. Could you give me two days? I'll call you back in two days, okay?"
Jiang Rong was already very grateful to Gao Song for agreeing to help, so how could she possibly be dissatisfied?
"Thank you so much! I'm so sorry to keep bothering you." Jiang Rong said politely to Gao Song.
"Teacher Jiang, I'm so glad you came to see me. It's no trouble at all."
Seeing that Gao Song had agreed to help, Jiang Rong didn't want to stay any longer. She stood up and said, "Then I won't keep you from your work any longer. I'll be going now."
"Alright, alright, then let me see you off!" Gao Song quickly stood up as well.
Jiang Rong waved her hand dismissively: "No need, no need, you should go upstairs quickly, Xiao Chuan might need to talk to you soon."
Seeing this, Gao Song didn't insist on seeing him off and instead called over a young maid from the front desk.
"Ge Qian, could you see Teacher Jiang off for me?"
"Okay, Minister Gao!" The receptionist happily accepted the task.
When Gao Song returned to his office, his boss was still discussing something with the guests, so he didn't rush to report to him. Taking advantage of this free time, he learned about the Lausanne Hotel Management School.
On his way home from get off work that evening, Gao Song reported the matter to his boss.
"Study abroad? Short-term training?" He didn't think it was a big deal when he heard that his sister-in-law had come to ask Gao Song for help that afternoon to arrange for her niece to go to the Singapore branch of the Lausanne Institute for a short-term training program.
Furthermore, it's a good thing that the child wants to improve their skills and is planning to enhance their professional abilities.
"I understand. I'll ask around about it."
Seeing that the big boss intended to personally handle the matter, Gao Song stopped talking.
Since that girl wants to go to the Lausanne Hotel Management School Singapore branch, Zhang Yun is the most suitable person to ask her about this matter, as she is quite familiar with all aspects of Singapore.
He also wanted to know about his two sons' current situation.
Zhang Yun was surprised to receive a call from Huang Xiaochuan, because this man rarely called her first; it was usually her who called him.
"Why are you calling now?"
Huang Xiaochuan didn't answer that question, but instead asked, "What about Yawen and Luca?"
"They went to see a play, so they're not with me right now. I'll have them call you tomorrow."
"Can!"
Huang Xiaochuan then asked, "Is the Lausanne Hotel Management School branch in Singapore?"
Zhang Yun felt a little strange; why was she asking about the school all of a sudden? But she still replied, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Huang Xiaochuan spoke frankly: "My sister-in-law wants to arrange for her niece to attend this school for a short-term training program, so she came to me, and that's why I'm asking you about it."
When Zhang Yun heard that it was about Huang Xiaochuan's family, she naturally couldn't refuse bluntly.
But she still asked, "I know this school; it has strict admission requirements. Does your sister-in-law's niece meet the criteria?"
Huang Xiaochuan frankly said, "If we go through the normal enrollment process, I think it's risky. That child doesn't seem to be cut out for studying."
Zhang Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, the conditions are easy to handle. Since you've brought it up, I'll take care of it. Send me your sister-in-law and niece's information later."
Huang Xiaochuan didn't stand on ceremony with Zhang Yun: "Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
