Chapter 356: From the envy and jealousy of the American people

Coincidentally, the United States, on the other side of the ocean, is also aware of these changes that are taking place at home. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

First of all, the e-commerce overlord Ali Group, the white goods giant Haier Company, and the smart device manufacturer TCL paid a huge price in exchange for the shares of the pioneer company, and then the legend of the Internet industry Ma Yun worked tirelessly everywhere for someone else's education investment plan, and then Liang Yu stood in the lecture hall of the National University Forum, showing the application of holographic image technology in education for the major universities and people from afar and the society and education circles. They were all shocked by this amazing development.

After artificial intelligence and robotics, this opponent who is still among the developing countries in terms of income level has another frontier technology field ahead of them.

It is still this kind of technological development that can greatly enhance the overall national strength.

For example, the New York Times, the most influential newspaper in the United States, declared that this is the only way for mankind to go in the future, and it is imperative to reduce the cost of education on a large scale!

The Washington Post, which is the mouthpiece of the US ZF organization, also commented: We must be vigilant against the changes that are taking place in the country on the other side, the time for the United States is running out, and we hope that the country can come up with corresponding countermeasures as soon as possible, and do not let our people regret it in the future!

In the Democratic Party's position, where a large number of overseas companies, Internet companies, and innovative economies are gathered in the West Coast region, the Los Angeles Times, which has the largest circulation, said even more red-eyed: As the most powerful country on the planet, it is a shame for all American citizens to lag behind other countries in such an important frontier technology field, and we must catch up as soon as possible!

That's not to mention the countless internet users in the United States.

Through various media reports, after clearly understanding what the holographic teaching mode is like, most people can't hold back their emotions and erupt full of resentment.

As we all know, the United States is a multi-immigrant country, with complex ethnic compositions from all over the world, which requires more resources and efforts than normal to balance regional and individual differences under the same conditions. After all, the children of immigrants living in developed countries are significantly more knowledgeable and receptive to new things than the children of immigrants living in poor and backward areas. Moreover, this is not counting the innate intelligence gap between them, which stems from the genetic aspect of human race. Excluding the influence of politics, governance, justice, and certainty, it is clear to everyone that the black Africans who have only come out of the primitive social state of drinking blood in modern times do not have to think about comparing with the Asians who entered the state of civilization thousands of years ago in terms of learning ability, and even the white people who started the modern industrial revolution have to sigh to themselves.

But the trick of American education lies in the fact that their system is not designed to ensure that as many people as possible have access to a high standard of education, but to concentrate resources on a small number of people under the illusion of fairness and universality.

The most obvious example of this is the standard of classification of good and bad schools in the minds of the public.

As long as you don't immigrate recently and are crippled by study abroad agencies, normal Americans know that the conditions of private schools are far better than those of most public schools, and the situation in China is completely reversed.

Not to mention that it has become popular in Europe and the United States, ostensibly to help students reduce their burden, but in fact it is a happy education to save educational resources, and even the American people themselves can't stand the bad state of public schools...... Because good teachers are basically concentrated in private schools with better treatment and environment, after the lack of necessary educational constraints and guidance, these students who have been completely herded will naturally not be able to focus on normal learning activities, but will be contaminated with those bad habits in society early, such as fighting, showing off wealth, huddle and crowd out, etc., resulting in the phenomenon of school bullying is endless. I have to say that the reason for the frequent tragedies of school shootings in the United States is mainly here.

Public schools that are close to slums, or simply surrounded by high levels of ethnic conflict and high crime rates, are even more terrifying.

Not only is the environment even worse, but it can be said that it is rare to graduate from it normally and go to university, and many students are actually low-level gang members in the surrounding communities behind their backs. Relying on this relationship, they not only run rampant in the school, but also engage in a large number of low-level criminal activities, such as taking advantage of the natural concealment of the campus environment and the protection of students' identities to peddle trafficking, selling, drugs, and products, and looking for underage sex workers among students who are good-looking and in shape..... The most terrible thing is that American society can no longer control this phenomenon, and even the local police are unwilling to go deep into these community schools to investigate if it is not necessary, because the number of incidents is indeed too large to be controlled.

Therefore, except for a small number of public schools in middle-class and wealthy areas with good student quality and local financial subsidy support, most American families who have ideas and conditions in their hearts do not want to choose any public school, but want to transfer their children to private schools with better education quality and environment. Because only in this way can their descendants have more opportunities to get rid of their original class and get the life they eventually want to have.

But this is only below the stage of higher education, and more difficult parts are yet to come.

Unlike domestic higher education, which is mainly based on public universities, low tuition fees coupled with the traditional emphasis on education and good savings habits allow most families to afford the cost of their children's education.

Higher education in the United States is not dominated by public universities, except for ordinary universities, which occupy the majority, most of the colleges and universities that really stand at the top of all universities and provide high-level talents for the whole United States are private universities. The most famous is the Ivy League (the old eight schools and nine new private universities, a total of 25 universities), the long history, the superior environment, the best educational conditions, and the large number of well-known alumni who have gone out of here, so that almost all Americans agree that only students who graduate from these schools can find better jobs.

However, none of their tuition fees are cheap.

If you can't apply for a small number of scholarships, the cost of studying for a year is basically more than $30,000 to $50,000, and there are more majors such as finance, medicine, and law with considerable income and employment prospects, not counting the daily living expenses. For Americans who advocate early spending, have little savings habits, and more than half of households cannot afford to pay more than $400 in activity cash at once, close to the median household income of $51,000 in the United States, even middle-class families can only choose student loans with high interest rates and long repayment periods.

According to the website of the American Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC), the data on student loans in the United States is incredible, with a total of more than 1.2 trillion US dollars (about 7.4 trillion yuan), and nearly 40 million students are burdened with loans, with an average debt of 29,000 US dollars (about 180,000 yuan) per capita. Basically, they need to repay $6 to $800 per month, the expected annualized interest rate is more than 8 points, and the average time limit is more than 20 years, resulting in many families not only repaying the loan themselves, but also their parents and elders are also dragged down by this huge repayment pressure.

It is conceivable how hot these people are when they know that the domestic university higher education is ready to try out this new holographic teaching model. While frantically complaining and criticizing the current American education system on the Internet, their words are full of jealousy and envy.
