What? In the future, when Lanfang universities recruit international students, they will recognize the results of the college entrance examination in Huaxia? Is this really ...... Courage. Are you saying that you will decide whether or not to be admitted to the cultural course directly based on the results of the college entrance examination? Do you need to take some other subjects?"

To tell the truth, President Xu's first reaction after hearing about Gu Kun's preliminary plan for Lanfang's future recruitment of international students was to be in awe.

The second reaction is that there is a lot to be done in this work, and if it is done well, it is a major achievement in the internationalization of educational work.

In foreign-run universities, the recognition of the results of the college entrance examination in China is more valuable than the number of international students recruited to come to China. Many of those who want to take the TOEFL and the SAT are not just going to study in Oceania or Brazzaville countries. There are many small countries in the world that recognize those test scores when recruiting international students.

To put it bluntly, this involves the issue of the right to speak on international standards for international cooperation in the field of education.

It's just that most of the small countries that are not Oceania countries and non-five countries are not in the Five Countries, and the children of wealthy families in China can't look down on them and won't go to those countries to study. Therefore, the vast majority of Chinese people don't pay attention to it, and they don't know that those small countries are willing to recognize TOEFL, IELTS, and SAT when accepting international students.

Principal Xu is an insider, of course he knows the doorway.

Facing Principal Xu's incredulous and embarrassed expression, Gu Kun was very calm and straightforward: "Of course I used it directly." We didn't have any foundation in higher education before, so if you let us prepare for the selection exam by ourselves, it would be too embarrassing for us, why don't we use it if we have ready-made ones?"

Principal Xu was overjoyed: "You said earlier, this is much easier, I will coordinate with the competent department of the city, maybe I can raise a co-organizer of the faculty." The relevant departments will definitely support this matter - by the way, then after your school is established, will it be called the Lanfang Campus of Hujiang Jiaotong University or the Lanfang Campus?"

Gu Kun: "Who told you that I want to be called this kind of name, can't I just call Lan Fang Jiaotong University?"

Principal Xu's emotions were instantly pulled back a little, and he was simply happy and angry: "This ...... This doesn't make sense, you want us to help you build the school, and you have to borrow our teachers and signboards, and you can only borrow half of all the names you have. ”

Gu Kun: "I heard that the history of Jiaotong University in your country was originally called Jiaotong University, and later it was split and the names of cities were added, so there are Hujiang Jiaotong University, Chang'an Jiaotong University and so on.

In this case, why can't we Lanfang be named the local place name of Lanfang? If it is called the name of 'Lanfang Campus' of so-and-so + place name + Jiaotong University, it will be too cheap, I want to directly learn from your original sect before splitting, and be on an equal footing with you. ”

"This can't be!" Principal Xu said angrily.

Gu Kun: "Then I won't do it, I believe I can find a co-organizer who is willing to do so." Now it is not uncommon for you to split up your own universities, upgrade them, and find predecessors with historical backgrounds to take refuge, and we can also give you back the sponsorship of running a school, is this too much to ask?"

Principal Xu was suddenly choked by Gu Kun's toughness, and he was reluctant to sponsor or make achievements in the industry, so he was a little embarrassed for a while.

He didn't expect Gu Kun to be so resolute on the issue of this kind of status.

Sponsorship, donations, and others are all negotiable, and they seem to be independent, and the demand for external resources is only "outsourcing", not foreign.

The two sides talked about some roundabout game conditions in a short fight, and in the end, Gu Kun felt that he didn't want to be so entangled anymore, and decided to change the angle of attack once and for all.

......

"President Xu, we are also our own people, there is no need for this, let's change the way we talk - I am also an alumnus of Jiaotong University, and it seems that I have not donated to my alma mater since I graduated. I remember that they are quite popular in the West, and their Ivy League is also a private university, so they have to fund it themselves. You eat finances, you don't have a lot of money, and you probably don't care much about that......"

Gu Kun changed his angle eloquently.

For example, in his sophomore year, in 1995, he donated dozens of computers and a computer room to the Institute to facilitate computer-based education of computer and CAD design courses.

That was six years ago, when Gu Kun was reborn only for more than a year, and the money was really not much, and he could only afford to donate that little - the computers in 95 were far more expensive than those in 01, at least more than doubled, and the dozens of computers were worth nearly one million together.

In the next two years, the Haiyuan also had a small relationship with Gu Kun in various ways, rubbing a million dollars of funds and materials every year, because the two sides cooperated, and the Haiyuan also helped Gu Kun contact the scientific research ship and some other resources, and Gu Kun was willing to give these small money, anyway, he could earn N times from other cooperation.

It's just that he graduated in 97, and until Gu Kun graduated, the Southeast Asian financial crisis had not happened, and Gu Kun could always be an invisible rich man at that time, and his financial muscles had not been shown to the public, and the school was embarrassed to ask for more. By the time he was completely shown as a world-class super-rich man, Gu Kun had already graduated, and he never donated money to his alma mater in the next three or four years, but he had placed a lot of orders with the design institutes and scientific research institutes of the Department of Jiaotong University, and had formal business cooperation.

At this moment, hearing Gu Kun suddenly mention this matter again, Principal Xu's adrenaline suddenly soared by several orders of magnitude, and his pupils dilated violently a few times.

"You...... It's not good for you to do this. No, there's nothing wrong with that, I mean, it's embarrassing, and talking about donations at a time like this is like confusing the two things.

That, whether we donate money or not, we should help the old friends of the Chinese people to engage in construction, and we have no principled differences on the issue of the name of Lanfang Jiaotong University, it is all a trivial matter. ”

Principal Xu shuddered and said incoherently for a moment, he couldn't say it all, after all, Gu Kun didn't announce how much money he was willing to donate.

If it's only a few hundred million yuan, it won't sell so many support forces. But the opening must be left first, and enough space must be left for a moment of seeing the situation at will.

Gu Kun was very satisfied with this effect, he didn't care about respecting the teacher anymore, rubbed his fingers, a female secretary lit a cigar for him, and then Gu Kun didn't smoke it, just put on that posture, and said calmly:

"I bought a car for 100 million euros, and it was cheaper to donate to my alma mater for the first time after graduation...... That's 500 million, I'm talking about dollars. ”

Donating a sum of money is more than buying a car, it can't be compared with buying a yacht, and the money is not blowing in the wind, this number is enough to have a comprehensive publicity effect, and at the same time it can replace enough benefits.

The most important thing is that it seems that the decision-making process is so lightly understated, that Principal Xu can't wait to pour him a few glasses of wine before Gu Kun opens his mouth and let him say this sentence in a more erratic state.

"Damn! 500 million dollars is just such a casual statement! I knew that I would let people serve you more comfortably before I gave you a chance to speak, but it's a pity, it's a pity. Principal Xu lamented in his heart, followed by ecstasy, this complex interweaving is indescribable.

Gu Kun observed playfully, watching Principal Xu be silent for a short time, but his face changed several times, sometimes red and sometimes blue, and then black and white, and couldn't help but interrupt the other party's contemplation curiously:

"Hey, I'm talking, but you have a statement, this thing can't be done. ”

"Cheng, of course," Principal Xu hated to slap himself to sober up, and forcibly relied on his demeanor to suppress it.

500 million US dollars, equivalent to 400 million yuan.

Today's university funding is far less generous than that of later generations, even if it is more than ten years later, the annual funding will easily exceed 10 billion yuan, and it is only Tsinghua University and Peking University that are the only ones that have the support of the whole country.

When it comes to local universities, Fudan in Hujiang or Jiaotong University are not the third richest in the country in terms of funds, but Jinling University in Jiangnan Province and Tunghai University in Donghai Province are even richer, especially when Tunghai University is in good times, it can rush to the level of 10 billion yuan-

This is because Tunghai University has annexed a lot of other good universities in Donghai Province, which is equivalent to gathering the educational resources of Donghai Province to supply this university, and the economy of Donghai Province is not bad, so it can have this grade.

Although the economy of Hujiang is stronger than that of any other city, it is not as large as an entire province in terms of scale. And the first echelon of Hujiang has three sons of Fudan Jiaotong University and Tongji to raise, so they are thin.

Jiaotong University's annual funding for running a school, including scientific research grants, is now 2 billion yuan. Gu Kun's donation from this "well-known alumni" is equivalent to the entire budget of the whole school for two years.

With such money coming in, you have to accompany the principal to punish himself with three bottles of Moutai, or the kind that blows on the bottle.

After thinking about it in this way, President Xu drew inferences from one another: "I will solve the problem of the name of the school, and the big deal is to change the nature and make it to assist in running the school instead of opening a branch school." The city will find a way to support it, and it's a big deal that we will add five or two, and pull some teacher resources from other brother schools to come over-

Isn't the professional setting of your Lanzhou Jiaotong University to match the industrial structure of your country? In addition to ship and ocean engineering, we are the most professional, other maritime majors, tourism management, I will help you from the Shanghai River Maritime College, Shanghai Foreign Affairs, and China Normal School, to find some elite backbones. I'll talk to them about whether they can exchange resources......"

Gu Kun nodded slightly, secretly thinking that Principal Xu was really on the way.

However, he still reminded him: "You don't think that you can spend these 500 million dollars in donations as you like, right? I won't stop you if you want to coordinate outreach and replace resources, but you can only use 100 million dollars of them at most." With the remaining $400 million, I want to make a targeted donation, earmark the funds, and send someone to monitor the use process. ”

Principal Xu calmed down a little, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.

The special fund is dedicated, and the meat is rotten in the pot. Coordinating resources for other schools, plus the resources of the city, is enough, and it is definitely the most public thing.

"That's also done, by the way, which majors are these special funds going to be given to?" Principal Xu asked openly.

"It is mainly for the marine institute where we were born, to be precise, mainly for the research and development of ship engineering, supplemented by the construction technology of marine engineering. For example, I will definitely use the research and development of some reclamation and land reclamation engineering technology and the research and development of blowing and reclamation ships, and I will definitely use them when I build Palm Island in Lanfang's Benma Atoll.

But I'm reluctant to develop so many technologies just for my own project. In the future, the intellectual property rights will not be able to be realized in my hands, so I will borrow flowers to offer the Buddha, and if you think that in the waters around the South China Seas, the marine engineering technology that can be used, and the current project of Lanfang cannot bear all the research and development, you can go from my special donation. ”

Gu Kun's idea is very correct, and his safety in the past few years has been won by relying on the common hatred of the countries in Nanyang after the Southeast Asian financial crisis in 98. In the future, if Western warmongers want to return to the Asia-Pacific region, Gu Kun is also a little dangerous.

Therefore, he should donate some money for his long-term safety, and it is good that someone will protect Lan Fang at that time.
