The reason why Yang Yuanzhao forcibly wants this, the reason is also very simple, dominant, among the first-class universities, they themselves have a huge thing, whether it is the attraction, the source of students, and the strength of scientific research, to a certain extent, do a good job of focus, so that these first-class universities can take on greater tasks, this is actually the mainstream of the future development of the world, some first-class universities, first-class research institutes, all of them are standing at the peak of the whole world, not only do good research, but also have a huge ability to make money, This is the right development, in saying that, this also has a huge orientation, encouraging these schools to strive to get closer to the first-class, as for the first-class level, will there be so much, it depends on the future government revenue, such as, the income is high, of course.

The first-class university, in addition to the heritage and fame, is the real results, there is a score in the university evaluation every year, how many practical technologies have been transformed, how many domestic gaps have been filled, how many advanced worlds have been improved, and even some basic teaching tasks, how many master's and doctoral students have been trained, and what achievements these students have obtained, there are strict regulations, and it is under such strict regulations that there are very few first-class universities in China.

Because of the strict relationship, coupled with the selection once every 2 years, there are not many first-class universities, there are only 36 in total, of which 12 are in Baotou, they are also the first batch of schools to invest and build after the rise of Baotou, due to the tendency of Yang Yuanzhao, the initial investment is very strong, especially in the hardware, almost completely exploded other universities in the world at the beginning.

Take Northwest University as an example, from the construction to the final fourth-year enrollment, the annual investment is as high as 180 million US dollars, and the total investment is more than 800 million US dollars, such an investment, even in Europe and the United States, it is enough to smash out a first-class university, not to mention in China, the first one or two sessions, but also because of the problem of teachers, there is no place to spend money, and the early construction is heavier than the education of teachers, after all, the investment is very simple, there is money on the line, and teachers can not always change out.

Later, after the first batch of students studying abroad in Northwest China, it took 2-3 years to complete the studies that could have been completed in four or five years, and after returning to the Northwest, with the help of these students and previous teachers, Northwest University expanded on a large scale, from 50,000 people, 100,000 people, 150,000 people, and the number of students rose all the way, becoming the most powerful school in China, and also the school with the largest number of students, at the limit, close to 800,000 people studying in a university, which is anywhere else in the world. These are impossible school sizes, but they exist normally in China.

Northwest University is located near Baotou, almost a small town, which has long been relocated from Baotou and is currently in a university town 55 kilometers away from Baotou, where 4 first-class universities and 34 other universities are concentrated, with a total annual student population of more than 6 million, which can be said to be one of the most densely populated areas near Baotou.

These schools in the northwest, due to the huge support, the foundation is very strong, the expansion speed is very fast, but even so, not every university can enter the first-class field, in this era, China's presumed method is comprehensive scientific research, but some genius scientists and educators, still have certain advantages, especially after the unification of the whole country in the northwest, the country's universities are within the scope of funding, and not to the northwest and other places as a distinction, even in order to support these schools, The investment is skewed.

For the implementation of non-Northwest University support, it was after 1911, a lot of construction in the Northwest in the early stage, they eventually emerged, becoming first-class not much, that is, some schools with heritage, for example, Peking University, Tsinghua University, the two famous schools in later generations, finally under the Northwest funding and their own efforts, among the first-class ranks, other Nankai, Fudan, Tongji and a few other schools are the same, in the country, can stand out among more than 3,000 universities are not much, 12 in Baotou, 27 in the northwest, outside the real northwest, there are only 9, which can also be seen the importance of the tilt of funds for the improvement of a school's strength.

First-class universities, each can enjoy a grant of 1 billion yuan, these are not education funds, education funds take another way, this is exclusively for scientific research, in the era of the foundation, Yang Yuanzhao will not care about the specific investment of this money there, but there will be special fund supervision to ensure that the funds are not misappropriated, 36 universities are 36 billion, this is a wealth that shocks everyone outside China, according to the current ratio between the Chinese dollar and the US dollar is 2:1, this is equivalent to 18 billion US dollars, That's almost half of the U.S. gross national product before it entered the war.

In 1913, the United States was only 35 billion US dollars, which is already quite terrible, if calculated according to the price of gold, 20 US dollars an ounce of gold in this era, and later generations as high as more than 1,000 US dollars an ounce of gold, the price of pure gold, 35 billion US dollars is equivalent to 1.75 trillion US dollars, which is definitely not a small number.

That is to say, Germany has worked hard to get Baku, exported nearly 100 million people, coupled with the industrialization of education and many other aspects combined, the overall income has just exceeded 12 billion, which is only about two-thirds of this investment.

There are a total of 36 first-class universities, enjoying an investment of 1 billion, leaving second-rate and third-rate universities, enjoying the remaining investment, the scale of such investment is very uneven, first-class schools, in the entire university, only occupy about 1%, even if the total number of students is added, it will not exceed 7%, but enjoy close to 70% of the funds, but the remaining more than 3,000 universities, only to share the remaining less than 30% of the funds, such a large tilt is a little too much.

This is also a helpless thing, because all grants do not look at favors, do not look at heads, only look at scientific research capabilities, and only complete enough projects, so that the score can be improved. At the beginning of the university evaluation, the gap is not big, but after the end of the first evaluation, the first-class universities have been improved to varying degrees, first-class universities, with first-class faculty, their teaching and scientific research are also excellent, the easiest to produce results, this plan matured from 1912 to 1916 in four years, 36 universities, produced more than 1,734 first-class achievements, completed more than 3,000 scientific and technological breakthroughs, these projects in the beginning, there are not many results, Many of them just fill in the gaps, but after the gaps are filled, when they begin to exert their power to a higher level, the direct results are more than 300 billion yuan, plus the indirect, the benefits are quite amazing, which is also the fundamental reason why this project has continued.

From 1912 to 1916, there were only 59 first-class achievements, and they were all the kind with low economic benefits.

Of course, China can not only look at first-class universities, to a large extent, second-rate and third-rate schools they are an effective supplement to first-class schools, although these schools have not achieved much economic value, but some of the materials they have studied, as well as some of the phased results, can become a supplement to first-class schools, this point, in 1914 began to show results, Northwest University and 12 colleges to establish a simple exchange mechanism, from the 12 colleges to harvest a number of research results, these research results, It could not be used directly, but it promoted the process of at least 27 first-class projects of Northwest University, with an increase of at least 6 months and a maximum of 15 months, and many projects of Northwest University were completed ahead of schedule, and the economic benefits were extremely amazing.

In fact, the northwest did not want to hide the past, this news spread, so it caused a large series of the entire university community, not only 36 first-class universities have staking their ground, to determine the sphere of influence, it is very caused by a series of chaos, and finally this confusion was seen by the high-level, which immediately attracted the attention of the Ministry of Education and first-class universities, and finally covered the whole of China's scientific research system alliance appeared, led by the Ministry of Education, in the subject classification and sharing, Some adjustments have been made, and even some second- and third-rate projects can share part of the funds when there is a certain promotion for first-class projects, and sufficient benefits have been achieved.

First-class has first-class benefits, second-rate and third-rate, not without effect, before this matter, Yang Yuanzhao has always thought that this is the case, with the subject sharing system, it will be more the whole country's scientific research force twisted into a rope, forming a ladder-like development trend, which is a strong shot in the arm for China's science and technology.

Science and technology must invest enough money, sometimes even a little waste, it is not necessarily not a bad thing, as long as it can be used, if it is a rigid mechanism, every university is bored to do research, the results of the research are only self-cherished, not applied to industrial production, that is the biggest waste.

Now, there is waste, but it is not dominant, the leading is the rapid development of science and technology, if there is this as a premise, even if it is a person who has a lot of criticism about Yang Yuanzhao's investment, he finally recognized it, and after more than a year of hesitation, the government finally accepted this final education project, the entire education belongs to the central government, and the total financial investment, occupies an extremely astonishing number, far above the military investment.
