On January 16, 78, there was still a week before the Spring Festival.

At this time, it was the freezing season in the north, but the military sub-districts were still as warm as spring, and the average temperature remained between 17 and 22 degrees, with little difference between morning and evening.

The vegetation on the mountains and hills is lush, and it is truly like spring all year round.

Hundreds of educated youths who had been admitted to domestic universities reluctantly left the place where they had stayed for more than half a year after the farewell party organized by the military sub-district.

After the college entrance examination cheating incident proved to be an oolong, there was an unusually fierce debate around college admission indicators. In the end, under the direct instructions of the high-level leaders, more than 770 candidates sent by the military sub-district were finally admitted to domestic universities as an unplanned enrollment target.

Special care has been given to them at home.

After graduation, they can obey the state assignment and work in domestic enterprises and institutions. It can also be regarded as a commissioned trainee sent by the military subdivision, and returning to the military subdivision has one more choice than domestic graduates.

In order to allow these students to go to college with peace of mind, the military sub-district specially gave them some travel subsidies, so that they could go home and tell the good news to their families, and by the way, have a Spring Festival of family reunion. After they have laid down all their baggage, they will go to the university to report.

Today is the day when all admitted freshmen leave.

Except for a few leaders of the military sub-district and a few of their friends who came to see them off, none of the other educated youth cadets were present. The farewell party was held in a cold and deserted manner, and only Guan Fei gave some earnest instruction to these students, encouraging them to study hard, whether they end up working in the country or returning to the military sub-district, it does not matter whether they are employed in the country or return to the military sub-district, the important thing is to achieve success in their studies, not to live up to their wisdom and talents, and to waste their time.

His speech did not have flowery rhetoric, only sincerity, which moved the admitted freshmen in the audience.

Guan Fei didn't know if these touches would affect their future choices after they graduated, but even if they didn't, he didn't care.

The college entrance examination is the first choice for educated youths to re-choose their future life path, and because it is the first time, it has the widest impact and the greatest momentum. With the help of various efforts, he continued to invest in all the educated youths in the area under his jurisdiction from both material and emotional aspects, so as to guide them to make choices that are beneficial to the military division.

In the end, out of more than 6,000 commanders and fighters and more than 15,000 cadets, only more than 700 left, which can be said to have minimized the negative impact.

After this similar biggest choice in life, all those who remain will have a deeper affection for the military division and a firmer stance. There will definitely be some people who will leave after that, but the number and scale of this will be insignificant compared to this time.

There are going, and there are coming.

After this incident of cheating in the college entrance examination, which has had an impact on the whole country, the top level in China has a relatively clear understanding of the quality of education in military sub-districts.

The quality of middle and high school education is so high, but what about universities?

With the direct intervention of the high-level officials, some of the candidates who were not admitted received an enrollment letter, which gave a general description of the situation of the military sub-district, and also listed the candidates' options for career after graduation, as well as the various measures to be taken by the military sub-district after the employment of these college students.

Because of the resistance of the domestic education system, for the time being, the country cannot recognize the qualifications of students enrolled in military sub-district universities, and they cannot directly become state cadres. However, if they are willing to return to China to work after graduation, they can be regarded as equivalent to evening adult education in terms of professional title evaluation and salary, and they will be taken care of accordingly.

Since it was the first attempt, it was only tried in the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan in China, and only the students who failed the college entrance examination in these three provinces received this letter.

The information actually fed back surprised the country, and the number of people who agreed to enter the military sub-division polytechnic university reached tens of thousands! Among them, there are very few candidates in big cities, and the vast majority of them are candidates from rural areas, mountainous areas, and some small counties with very underdeveloped economic conditions.

When asked why they were willing to study in the military division, the candidates unanimously said: believe in the country!

Believe in the country!

This is the greatest feature of this era!

Even though there were some detours in the past 10 years, the country's image in the eyes of the masses of the people is still lofty. They believe that the state will not lie to them, and as long as the state speaks, it will be more real than real gold! The state has chosen this path for them, then it must be good!

The same is true for those in big cities.

They don't sign up just because their living conditions are already very good compared to those in rural areas, and a higher job treatment can't attract them to leave their hometowns, leave the cities, families, and parents they are used to, and go to study in remote mountainous areas. It's not that they don't believe that there is such a thing, but they feel that the quality of teaching in this mountain university may be limited, and the way out after completing their studies is relatively narrow. Instead of going where to waste a few years, if you have the opportunity, you can become a temporary worker in your parents' unit, and in the future, when your parents retire, you can take over their shifts.

On the contrary, those candidates in poor areas are willing to accept any conditions in order to get out of the farm. What is a mountain university, no matter how bitter it is, can it be more bitter than they were? As long as you work hard for three years, you can at least be a worker, which is much better than facing the loess with your back to the sky for the rest of your life.

With such a mentality, when they knew that although they had not been admitted to a regular university in China, the military sub-district university had given them a chance to study, many candidates who failed the list immediately agreed without thinking about it, and they didn't even think about which major they would study in the future.

After receiving such a strong reaction from them, the country was also shocked.

While they were happy that the task could be completed so easily, they also had some headaches in the face of the enthusiastic response from the candidates.

No one knows what the level of education is in the military sub-district universities. This was originally an experiment done under the intervention of the above, and I wanted to compare the differences between domestic higher education and military sub-districts in cultivating talents, and which one had a higher success rate. The country has been in turmoil for ten years, the domestic education system has been a mess, it can almost be said that it has been abolished, everything has to start from scratch, so many parties can learn from it, find more objects, and learn from the successful experience of others.

One sentence above, broken leg below.

The person in charge of handling this matter was afraid that no one would go to the military sub-district science and technology university at the beginning, so he lobbied hard. However, when the response was enthusiastic, they were afraid that the military sub-division's level of higher education would be limited and that they would end up misleading their children, and that the higher authorities would certainly not blame the military sub-district, but would only put the blame on their heads.

Therefore, they in turn persuaded these candidates who were willing to go to the military sub-district polytechnic university to let them think more calmly. After all, the university qualifications of military divisions are not recognized in China. After a few years of hard study, in China, at best, it is to get a higher vocational diploma, so that candidates should not be impulsive and treat this matter more rationally.

That's what happens in the world, the more you don't let people do it, the more people want to do it.

In the face of the persuasion of the admissions office, the candidates only asked one question: Is this school fake?

The only thing the admissions office can say is that it's true.

Since this is the case, then there is nothing else to say, the candidates believe in the country. The state has made a guarantee, so there is no need to worry about being deceived.

The admissions office persuaded a circle, but instead of making most candidates change their minds, there were rumors that "the country has found another way out for the unsuccessful candidates, but the number of recruits is limited, and if you miss it, you won't have a chance". In a short period of half a month, the number of candidates who came to sign up and were willing to study at the military sub-district polytechnic university increased more and more, and soon exceeded 20,000, and the number is still increasing rapidly.

Except for a very few places such as the Chengdu Plain, the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan have superior natural conditions, and generally speaking, they are all mountainous and have little land, and are well-known economically underdeveloped provinces in China. Moreover, the population base of these three provinces is quite large, with more than 70 percent of the population living in mountainous areas with poor economic conditions.

The college entrance examination is a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, and very few people pass. The candidates who failed the list were basically dead, but suddenly heard that even if they failed, there was such an unexpected opportunity, and almost everyone seized this last opportunity.

The persons in charge of the admissions offices of the three provinces immediately knew that they were self-defeating, and they did not dare to say more, but only transferred the candidates' results and materials to the military sub-district science and technology universities, and they made their own choices.

When the military sub-district sent away more than 770 candidates, the number of voluntary enrollment students piled up in the admissions office of the University of Science and Technology had already exceeded 40,000!

Guan Fei and Zhang Shengguo sent away this group of people on the front foot, and rushed to the University of Science and Technology on the back foot, preparing to draw up a charter with President An and others on the matter of enrollment.

"How many people are you going to hire?"

The military subdivision is not a big place, and there is not so much red tape. The Communist Party of China is just a few people, each with its own duties, usually everyone has something to meet, and if there is nothing to do, they will do their own things. Except for a guard entourage on each side, the two did not hug each other.

They got into the jeep newly purchased from China, and Zhang Shengguo asked Guan Fei's opinion in advance about the enrollment of students.

"Of course I want them all!" Guan Fei smiled, "But it's not realistic." If I really open my mouth to accept all of them, the country will not feel at ease, thinking that I am using enrollment as an excuse to expand the population of military sub-districts in disguise, and maybe this thing will not be possible. ”

"That's it!" Zhang Shengguo was also afraid that Guan Fei would be diluted and shout out all the words to receive, so he had to talk to him in advance, and seeing that he was consistently calm, he was not so nervous, "As long as we have been seriously developing the economy and building the new city better and better, more than half of these students will definitely stay after graduation." Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the argument that the population will be expanded through enrollment. But this is because we have recruited students and the economy is developing well, so graduates are willing to stay, rather than focusing on recruiting students for the sake of this result. We can't turn the effect into the cause, and doing so will do bad things. ”

"I've calculated that the total population of the new city is about 200,000 to 300,000. More than 40 percent of them work in factories and enterprises, which is between 80,000 and 120,000. Others are engaged in the management and service direction of urban functions, and are engaged in public security, education, medical care, sanitation, entertainment, and commerce. Assuming that half of these people are college students, then 10 to 150,000 college students are needed. It takes 38 years for a college student to graduate at the age of 22 and retire at the age of 60, so an average of 3,900 college students should be added to the ...... every year. In fact, it is not impossible, urban residents will get married, have children, and the population base will become larger and larger, so the number of people actually recruited from outside will not be so large. Guan Fei didn't clearly say how many people he wanted to recruit, but just made a big program.

"Well, we don't actually need too many people. For example, there are tens of thousands of people in the military sub-districts themselves, and in the past six months or so, the masses of the Northeast Military Region have also come to work in large numbers, and in fact, they can already be counted as our population, adding up to 50,000 or 60,000 people. We ourselves have six or seven thousand cadres and fighters and more than 15,000 educated youth trainees. So as the base number of people, we don't lack much, the key is high-quality talents, relative shortage ......" Zhang Shengguo also nodded again and again, and had a basic concept of the number of students to be discussed later.

The two talked and exchanged views and came to the Polytechnic University.

A few months have passed, and after several replantings, the vegetation on campus has survived. Although it is the middle of winter, there are green trees and flowers everywhere, and students who have not attended classes are sitting or lying on the lawn, reading books and chatting, which is very pleasant.

The various systems of military sub-districts are basically similar to those in China, but they are more tolerant than those in China.

There are also political classes, weekly political studies, and party members attend party group meetings, which doesn't look much different from in China. But there are not so many harsh requirements here, there will be no pigtails in speech, students can speak freely, as long as they do not deliberately promote wrong ideas, and they will not be criticized for saying wrong.

Compared with the domestic recurrence from time to time, people are afraid of touching the tension of the political high-voltage line, the atmosphere here is more relaxed.

Since the military sub-districts basically ensured that everyone had something to eat, the local masses began to think about eating well after they had enough to eat. The corn, sorghum and other miscellaneous grains saved in the people's homes are used to raise poultry and livestock.

With output, there will be exchange.

After many families raise chickens and ducks, they use bamboo baskets to hold eggs, duck eggs, or live chickens and ducks, and sell them independently. Before the new city was built, the local people spontaneously formed a farmers' market in Longkang Town, where the brigade headquarters is located.

At first, everyone was still a little worried, afraid that the military sub-district would close down the market, or even confiscate their belongings, and even more seriously, they might be arrested and sentenced. However, after the military sub-district only sent out managers, designated trading areas for them, and strictly required them to maintain market hygiene, they did not bother to ask any more questions.

Through the exploration of others, this spontaneous farmers' market became more and more prosperous, and the varieties sold became more and more diverse. There are chickens and ducks raised by the masses themselves, fish caught in the river, all kinds of poultry eggs, vegetables grown by peasant households, cloth shoes, handicrafts, and so on, all of which are taken out and sold.

When the first community in the new city was completed, a large number of residents moved in, and the population began to move from Longkang to the new city, and this farmers' market automatically followed. The management of the new town is stricter than that of the farmers' market, and the market is brought under management, but the order and environment are much better.

The prototype of a new city is gradually taking shape.
