There were so many people in the classroom, and obviously many of them were not from Chen Yunliang's class, and they came to listen to the class, they must be interested in this class. However, there were not many people standing, and some of them came from behind to see that there were no seats, so they complained and left, after all, they were all mutual aid students, and they knew that they had to come earlier, but they were not as urgent as standing and listening to the class for more than an hour.

Bao Feiyang and several students sitting in front of Chen Han were discussing something hotly, and one of the students said loudly: "You have seen what is written in the newspaper, the plan for a horizontal in the middle of the Hucheng Tianzi elevated highway has been decided, I heard that several professors in the school have made a lot of trouble about this matter, and Professor Guan gave this plan to his graduate students in a class yesterday. ”

"I also saw it, it's not a cliché, Professor Guan kept the Shikumen, but he can't stop the government from building an elevated highway in front of the Shikumen, the officials are concerned about the political performance, and they won't care what kind of urban vision and scenery are separated." Another student said.

"I think this is not wrong, after all, the elevated highway can greatly alleviate the congested traffic situation, if it is repaired on the ground like the ring road in Yanjing, it will make the traffic more congested, the chief didn't say, development is the last word."

"Yes, development is the last word, and the others are soft truths, so what kind of lessons are we still listening to here!"

……

Listening to these arguments full of bookish atmosphere, Bao Feiyang couldn't help but smile slightly, very nostalgic for such a time. Although he has only graduated from this world for four or five years, it has been decades since he left school with the actual time of his previous life.

In the past few decades, even in the past few years, he has lived in a very stressful state, because he always feels that time is limited and he must hurry. It's rare to be like this, because the words of a few young students let go of other thoughts and relax all their minds.

Because even if it is to listen to the lecture, it is actually to have a conversation with Chen Yunliang later. But at this moment, he suddenly had some realization, and felt that he could put aside those thoughts and simply listen to a lecture.

Chen Yunliang came to the classroom on time. When class began, the room full of students were very cooperative, and they immediately quieted down and listened to Chen Yunliang's lecture.

Some university teachers have a very high academic level, but the level of lectures is average, Chen Yunliang is obviously not, he is very strict when he lectures, but the way of teaching is very flexible, and he often asks some questions. Have students answer, and then present their ideas in a discussion.

The theme of Chen Yunliang's lecture today is "Economic Globalization and Urban Competitiveness." This is a very big topic, and Chen Yunliang only talks about urban planning.

Chen Yunliang said: "Why do we talk about globalization and cities, or more directly, what kind of impact does globalization have on the urban system? Let me give you an example, in the past, our city was a typical traditional city, with industry, commerce, and agriculture all around. The company's headquarters and factories are in the same city, and now the situation has changed. For example, when we mention Shanghai, we will say that it is a financial center, when we mention Sioux City, we will say that it is a manufacturing center, and then Silicon Valley, which is the center of the emerging technology industry. This distinction is becoming more and more obvious, and who can say what kind of change this change is? ”

Soon, Chen Yunliang nodded a student who raised his hand to stand up and answer the question, and the student said: "I think this change in urban functions is related to economic globalization, economic globalization. It is the redistribution of economic activities and the flow of resources on a global scale, so that each city will assume different roles and tasks in the globalized economic chain because of its different characteristics and resources, and the functions and characteristics of the city will become different. ”

"Is there anyone else who disagrees?" Chen Yunliang asked again, because a large part of Chen Yunliang's grades in this course were based on the usual class schedule, so the person who answered was very positive, and soon he asked another person to stand up and answer the question.

The student said: "I don't think it's an ordinary division of labor, and there is also vertical differentiation, let's just say that Silicon Valley, which is very powerful now, they have mastered technology and emerging industries, but it is Wall Street's venture capital that has the initiative." The theory of wild geese is that the leading wild goose will gradually transfer the eliminated industries to the later wild goose, which is actually a vertical structure, and the wild goose in front will always grasp more advantageous economic resources and grasp a more advantageous right to speak. ”

Chen Yunliang nodded, stretched out his hand and motioned for the classmate to sit down, every time he asked a question, he usually only asked two people to answer: "Okay, basically these two classmates have said to the point." In the context of globalization, we can regard all cities as a city system, in the past, this system was a horizontal structure characterized by the departments of economic activities, to the vertical structure characterized by the level of economic activities. ”

"Of course, we say that at any given time, the urban system has a vertical and horizontal structure, but in the past it was mainly a horizontal structure, and now every city needs to participate in the vertical system of global cities."

"In this vertical system, we can see that the cities that manage and control the agglomeration at the level are dominant, while the cities that are agglomeration at the manufacturing and assembly levels are in a subordinate position. A series of global and regional economic centers formed in developed countries and some newly industrialized countries and regions have played an increasingly significant role in the global and regional economy. ”

After Chen Yunliang finished his theory, he began to raise new questions: "Globalization is surging, and verticalization is inevitable, as large as a country, as small as a town, we must find our place in the horizontal and vertical structure of this system, do you have any thoughts on this issue?" Okay, let's ask the students over there to answer this question. ”

The student who was called stood up and said, "Professor Chen just mentioned that from a small town to a large country, there is a position. On the whole, our country's current positioning is manufacturing and even assembly, specific to the city, including Shanghai has been shouting to become an international financial center, in fact, it is still far from this goal, Shanghai's economy is still based on manufacturing and assembly industry, which is not consistent with planning. ”

Every student who was called answered very succinctly, which is obviously the "rule" in Chen Yunliang's class.

After the student finished answering, Chen Yunliang suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed behind him: "Please the student who is standing, yes, the one who just spoke to tell me your opinion." ”

Chen Han, who had just turned his head to talk to Bao Feiyang, suddenly turned red, after all, he had been away from the campus for more than half a year, and he was not so sensitive to classroom discipline, he just turned his head and wanted to talk to Bao Feiyang, but he didn't expect to be pointed out by Chen Yunliang to answer the question.

Chen Han studied engineering economics and didn't know much about urban planning, of course, after listening to half a class, he could also talk a few words, but when Chen Yunliang called out in public, he didn't react all of a sudden, and his brain was blank.

Seeing that the eyes of the students in the classroom were all turned around, Bao Feiyang couldn't help but smile bitterly, Chen Yunliang must have noticed himself now, and he didn't know if it would leave a bad impression on the other party.

"Hello, Professor Chen." Bao Feiyang smiled slightly and nodded to Chen Yunliang: "I am a staff member of Haizhou Development Zone, I came to visit Professor Chen today, and I have a rare opportunity to listen to Professor Chen's class. ”

Chen Yunliang looked at Bao Feiyang twice, obviously knowing his identity: "Well, since you are here to listen to the class, then you have to abide by the rules of my class, and you can tell me what you think." ”

Chen Yunliang's tone was obviously not very good, and the rules in his class were not only to answer questions, but also not to speak casually. Bao Feiyang has already broken one rule, and obviously can't break another rule.

Bao Feiyang knew that Chen Yunliang's move also meant to test him, and he had already left a bad impression on Chen Yunliang just now -- although it was Chen Han who had just spoken, it was obvious that Chen Yunliang would write this matter down on his head, and Bao Feiyang had no intention of shirking responsibility -- if he couldn't even answer this question well, maybe Chen Yunliang would cancel the meeting that had been originally promised.

The eyes of the two or three hundred students in the classroom also fell on Bao Feiyang, although Chen Yunliang's class was attended by many people, but most of them were students from other departments or other grades, and suddenly a person from outside the school ran out, and it was from Haizhou Development Zone, which made them feel very surprised, and they were also very curious, and wanted to hear what Bao Feiyang had to say.

Bao Feiyang quickly organized the language: "Okay, then I'll talk about it casually." ”

"I think that the vertical structure that Professor Chen just mentioned may be more obvious in our country, because our cities have levels, for example, Shanghai is the provincial level, municipalities directly under the central government are all provincial, cities with separate planning are sub-provincial levels, and provincial capitals are also at the level of vice provinces, and then there are prefecture-level cities, county-level cities are equivalent to sub-prefecture levels, and then below is the county level, this is the administrative level, from the economic function, the situation is roughly the same, the higher level, the management and control level is stronger, the lower level, It may only be possible to look for opportunities in manufacturing and assembly, and even superiors will take it all and compete for these opportunities. Bao Feiyang said simply, this is a class after all, and it is impossible to give him the opportunity to speak at length.

"Haha!" Many students laughed, Bao Feiyang's statement can be described as very down-to-earth, very in line with the national conditions of Huaxia, and some students turned around and secretly gave him a thumbs up.

"This statement of yours is very chic, and there is some truth to it." Chen Yunliang actually nodded: "It's rare for us to have a first-line experience in the classroom, otherwise, Director Bao, you can come to the front and talk to us about the situation of urban planning at the grassroots level?"
