Chapter 696: Yulin Bay University Hall

Huang Taiji and the other three were stunned, wasn't Tao Min's fleet sunk by Yulin Bay, could it be that he went to Dongying again now?

Huang Taiji pondered for a while: "That's it, Aiqing will wait for a few days for the time being, and I will ask the rest of the people before making a decision." ”

Wang Jian was in his office looking at the Leizhou Peninsula development plan submitted by Sun Dalei to the committee, Xu Lang has been busy with the spring offensive recently, so this plan is all made by Sun Dalei himself.

There was a knock on the door outside the house, and Qin Zhigang pushed the door and walked in.

"Why does Director Qin have time to come here." Wang Jian closed the plan and beckoned, "Come and sit, is there something new coming out of the Industrial Bureau, you are here to report the good news." ”

Qin Zhigang sat down on the chair and said with a smile: "Chairman, don't ask me these things as soon as you see me, invention and creation are not so simple, I have something else to do with you." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry." Wang Jian poured two glasses of water, "What the hell is going on." ”

Qin Zhigang rubbed his hands: "Chairman, I have an idea, I may not be very mature, I want to talk to you first." I think when we change office in July, I won't be the director, and I want to do something else. ”

"If you don't become the director, who can replace you, or let Xia Yang come back?" Wang Jian said, "What do you want to do?" ”

"I'm afraid Lao Xia won't be able to come back, I really have to pull him in for what I want to do." Qin Zhigang explained, "Our Industrial Bureau has been established for many years, and we have been cooperating with the Military Research Institute to engage in scientific and technological research and development. However, our government chief has found a lot of problems in recent years, and the current scientific and technological research and development is actually still carried out by our own people, to put it bluntly, it is still our university teachers who are engaged in it, and the entire scientific and technological system has not been rolled out on Hainan Island at all, or even in Yulin Bay. ”

"It's impossible not to spread it out at all." Wang Jian was a little unconvinced, "Our education has been doing well over the years, the enrollment rate and literacy rate have increased greatly, and Wanzhou Academy has also been training technicians." ”

"Chairman Wang, can the increase in the literacy rate be the same as that of scientific research and development?" Qin Zhigang made Wang Jian laugh, "Wanzhou Academy is training technicians, but only technicians are trained, that is, skilled technical workers. They have no theoretical foundation, and it is okay to make some small innovations, but it is not okay to really invent and create. ”

"Then what do you want to do?" Wang Jian asked, "Have you come up with any good ideas?" ”

"I can't say it's a good idea." Qin Zhigang smiled with some ill intentions, "Aren't An Yuhang and Xin Jiaju preparing for the Navy Military Academy now, and Ouyang Zhengping also wants to start a medical school, so I also want to build a school, which is called Yulinwan University Hall." However, I'm afraid that a lot of money will be used, and I'm not sure, so I'm here to ask you what you mean. ”

"Yulin Bay University Hall, you want to open a university in Yulin Bay." Wang Jian was a little surprised, "We already have Wanzhou Academy, do you want to build another university?" Although education is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, will it be a conflict? ”

"Don't worry, absolutely not, the university I want to engage in is pure science and engineering, so I want to pull Xia Yang with them."

Qin Zhigang said his thoughts clearly. Before the second industrial revolution in history, mankind has been in the age of steam, and the theoretical basis of this era is Newton's three laws of mechanics. And the greatest achievement in mathematics of this era was the creation and development of calculus. It was not until 1775 that Lavoisier expounded the oxidation theory of combustion, ushering in the period of quantitative chemistry.

This year is the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, that is, 1640, Newton was born three years later, and Lavoisier was born 103 years later, of course, these do not hinder anything, because in the era after 400 years, whether it is the three laws of mechanics or the theory of oxidation, it is a problem that ordinary middle school students can understand. Even calculus is a basic course in college mathematics.

However, in the lectures of Yulin Bay, Wanzhou Academy and Yulin Bay Academy, not even the unary equations were never taught, let alone the theories of physics and chemistry.

Therefore, in Qin Zhigang's vision, the main goal of Yulinwan University Hall is this aspect. Qin Zhigang planned that the school system of Yulinwan University Hall would be five years, recruiting students from Yulinwan Academy and Wanzhou Academy, and the original travelers would compile handouts according to the secondary school textbooks of later generations. In five years, these students will be taught the knowledge of science in secondary school after 400 years, so that they can initially grasp the most advanced theories of this era, or even 100 years later.

After listening to the grand blueprint described by Qin Zhigang, Wang Jian felt a little contradictory. If Qin Zhigang's vision can really be followed and a group of children can be trained to become the greatest scientists of this era within five years, then it will not be a problem to promote the industrial revolution throughout the Ming Dynasty. But is it possible, let a group of children who can't even master addition, subtraction, multiplication and division learn what action and reaction forces, learn equations, and learn analytic geometry, Wang Jian felt that Qin Zhigang was whimsical.

"Chairman Wang, this plan of mine must be matched." Qin Zhigang saw that Wang Jian was a little hesitant, and explained, "It is not easy to let the children of this era learn Newton and Lavoisier all at once, so I would like to discuss with the Education Bureau, and the curriculum of our Yulinwan Academy should also be changed, and some elementary mathematics and physics theories should be taught, so that graduates can lay a preliminary foundation and then further study." I think it would be better that way. ”

Wang Jian did not answer, but asked another question: "Do you envision this university to admit Westerners, and do scientists like Descartes make him a gentleman or a student?" ”

Qin Zhigang knew what Wang Jian meant by asking: "Of course we recruit Westerners, didn't we Yulinwan say a long time ago that we would welcome everyone with open arms." You don't have to worry, although the things we teach are the most advanced in this era, and Westerners may be more able to accept and grasp them, they still can't compare with us. The Industrial Revolution could only begin in the Ming Dynasty, or in Yulin Bay. ”

"Qin Zhigang, tell the truth." Wang Jian said, "I personally approve of your plan, but I don't know how much the children of the Ming Dynasty will accept it, and whether they will really be able to become a qualified high school graduate after 400 in five years, as you said." And once we want to start this plan, then I am afraid that the investment will be huge, not more than the naval academy, and I dare not guarantee that the crossing conference will definitely agree. ”
