Ye Zheng, Deputy Director of the Talent Work Division, brought 36 selected graduates this time. Not a single one was a university graduate; they were all graduates of technical secondary schools or high schools.
Following the usual practice, Qi Tongwei organized the selected graduates into a study group and took charge of them personally. Qi Tongwei did not look down on them because of their educational backgrounds. After all, university graduates were still a minority, and very few were willing to come to a county to develop their careers; staying at the municipal level remained the top priority for most.
A busy month and a half passed, during which Hou Liangping and Chen Hai finished their internships and returned home to await the Chinese New Year. As the year-end approached, it was time for the annual tradition of gift-giving. By this time, the fresh vegetables in the 1,000-acre greenhouse had matured. Qi Tongwei purchased a batch of emergency vegetables at an internal rate to use for gift boxes, which also served as a way to advertise Dongshan County.
