The family area of Jiangcheng University was built in the nineties of the last century.

The buildings of that era were very lively, the houses were not high, only six floors, and on the outside of the buildings was the verandah, which is almost extinct in the elevator apartments.

Plants are placed on the verandahs of the verandah, and many residents also dry their clothes and quilts here.

The weather was fine on New Year's Day, and the warm winter sun warmed up the entire family area.

Dean Li's old father held scissors with old eyes and used the sunlight to prune the withered leaves of the Monarch Orchid.

Dean Li's income is good, and he also has a house in a better community in Jiangcheng. But he has been living with his father in an old-fashioned teacher's dormitory.

Xiao Ming also felt that living here was more comfortable than a birdcage-like elevator room.

"I can already smell the scent. Xiao Ming was carrying beef and milk powder produced by the food factory and two bottles of Porto red wine sent from the French winery, which was specially prepared for the elderly, which could be regarded as Xiao Ming's little affection for Dean Li's father.

"Xiao Ming is here, come in, bring something. Dean Li's wife, Mr. Wang, greeted Xiao Ming warmly.

Xiao Ming smiled: "I have already smelled the fragrance of crispy meat, Mr. Wang, I came on an empty stomach." ”

Teacher Wang took the gift from Xiao Ming's hand, "We Jiangcheng people have to make a little crispy meat for the holidays, and we will definitely be full at noon today!"

Teacher Wang shouted: "Xinmei, hurry up and call you Brother Xiao Ming into the house." ”

Li Xinmei, who is in her third year of high school in Jiangcheng, wore a big bear pajamas and invited Xiao Ming into the house.

Xiao Ming greeted: "Xinmei is on vacation?"

Li Xinmei muttered: "There is only one day off on New Year's Day, and I have to go to self-study in the evening." ”

Teacher Wang blamed: "You have to study like Brother Xiao Ming, don't be sad when you talk about learning." ”

Li Xinmei made a grimace at Xiao Ming.

Refreshing red wine, delicious food, home-cooked food and more festive atmosphere.

Everyone toasts to each other and celebrates New Year's Day.

After three rounds of drinking, Dean Li asked Xiao Ming's plans for his future studies.

Dean Li said: "Xiao Ming, now that you and Pangu Science and Technology have been very successful, and the Pangu Academy of Basic Science and Technology has also become a well-known graduate school of basic science in Xia State, it stands to reason that I am not qualified to talk to you about this today." ”

Xiao Ming hurriedly said: "Dean Li's words are serious, Pangu Technology does have a little attainment in science, engineering, agriculture and medicine, but you are still an expert in economics. ”

Xiao Ming said: "The structure of Pangu Technology Group and the way it deals with Western companies, these are all learned from you. ”

Dean Li shook his head and said humbly: "For any operating company, its own strength is the most important factor, and financial means are only auxiliary. ”

Dean Li was still concerned about Xiao Ming's academic plans after graduation, and he knew that Xiao Ming had rejected the school's recommendation to send graduate students, and he had not applied for graduate studies from any school.

However, with Xiao Ming's current situation, graduate school has no practical meaning for him.

Xiao Ming said: "After graduation, I should devote most of my time to the research and development of new technologies and technologies, of course, I will always learn, but the learning at that time is more practical learning." ”

Xiao Ming made it very clear that he would not consider going to school again.

Dean Li said: "Actually, the school has a plan to send you as a graduate student in finance, of course, this is just a name. ”

Dean Li sandwiched a piece of crispy meat for Xiao Ming, "This is just one aspect, while you are a graduate student, the school hired you as the dean of the Academy of Natural Sciences, hoping that you can bring students from schools around the world, which can be regarded as a reluctant invitation from your alma mater." ”

"Academy of Natural Sciences?" Xiao Ming asked with some confusion, "Why didn't I know there was a Academy of Natural Sciences after so many years in school?"

Dean Li said: "This is a new college opened by Jiangcheng University under the suggestion of relevant departments (Note 1), which integrates some majors and the best students of the School of Science, Life Sciences, Computer Science and other schools of science, engineering and agriculture. ”

Dean Li said: "In fact, before today, the school and the leaders above have talked to me, the Academy of Natural Sciences and the Pangu Academy of Science and Technology can complement each other, and talents can communicate with each other, the Pangu Academy of Science and Technology focuses on basic disciplines, while the School of Natural Sciences of Jiangcheng University focuses on application.

We can also be regarded as cultivating scientific and technological talents for Xia Guo, and the position of president of the Academy of Natural Sciences cannot be replaced by anyone except you. ”

Xiao Ming immediately understood the attention of Jiangcheng University, and escorting himself to graduate school was actually a superficial article, and pulling himself to the Academy of Natural Sciences was the main purpose.

Dean Li hoped that Xiao Ming would not have any worries, he said: "In the future, the graduates of the Pangu Academy of Science and Technology can unconditionally get the graduation certificate and degree certificate of the School of Natural Sciences of Jiangcheng University, which is one of them; ”

Dean Li's last words touched Xiao Ming, and he said: "Through the development of Pangu Science and Technology, many people realize that what Xia Guo lacks the most is actually high-end talents, and we hope to work with Pangu Academy of Science and Technology to build Jiangcheng into a scientific and technological talent training base for Xia Kingdom." The establishment of the School of Natural Sciences in Jiangcheng University is only the first step, and in the future, Jiangcheng Institute of Technology and Jiangcheng Medical University will bring over some high-quality students from colleges and majors, which is an important part of Jiangcheng's talent development, and there are still too few scientific and technological talents in Xia. ”

Dean Li said earnestly: "Xiao Ming, we still hope that the higher education of Xia Kingdom can take advantage of the momentum of the rise of Pangu science and technology to change the color of utilitarian education, so that education can return more to simplicity and the future." I sincerely hope that you can personally bring a few graduate students and do a few projects, because the establishment of the Academy of Natural Sciences has a far-reaching impact on higher education. ”

Xiao Ming saw sincerity in Dean Li's eyes, and he also knew that Xia Guo's biggest dilemma at present was actually talent.

High-end talents are reluctant to return to China, local higher education is also a bit tasteless, and utilitarianism is rampant in colleges and universities, which leads to a strange phenomenon, students feel that they make money and learn something, and few people are willing to sink down to do scientific research with a long return cycle.

Xiao Ming said: "I need to take a look at the specific plan prepared by the Academy of Natural Sciences, if we can increase the cultivation and output of talents, Pangu Technology is duty-bound." ”
