Chapter 100 Education-oriented
Mancheng has been revoked, the next step is how to sell at a good price, these things have someone else to do, Qiao Yu is now holding the Sichuan Times in his hand and looking at it carefully, the front page headline published Luo Lun's article, the headline of the column is blood debt to be repaid with blood, the main content of the article is to point the finger at Zhao Erfeng, demanding that the executioner be executed as soon as possible, and many members of the Sichuan Parliament will also put forward a bill to try Zhao Erfeng.
It seems that Luo Lun and the others can't wait, in fact, they don't blame them, Zhao Erfeng is a time bomb, especially the account book of the Sichuan-Han Railway Company has fallen into the hands of the old man, and although Qiao Yu promised to attack Zhao Erfeng, there was no movement for a long time, so Pu Dianjun and Luo Lun were also a little uncertain, so they thought of using the power of public opinion to force Qiao Yu to hurry up and attack Zhao Erfeng to eradicate this scourge.
When Qiao Yu was browsing the newspaper, someone suddenly came to visit, it was the new Minister of Education Zhang Lan, Zhang Lan is now in his forties, not tall, but very strong, with a long beard, he doesn't look like a literati, but a bit of a martial artist's posture, but Qiao Yu knows that this person was a talent in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he went to study in Yueben, and he has nothing to say about his academic character.
"Mr. Biaofang, you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and you have difficulties in your work again!"
Zhang Lan did the opposite side of Qiao Yu and handed a document to Qiao Yu, "Governor, this is a plan for the development of education drawn up by the Ministry of Education, first of all, we must reform the education system, popularize basic education within five years, and establish twenty universities!" Comprehensively improve the education level in Sichuan! ”
Qiao Yu looked at Zhang Lan's plan, it was indeed done very carefully, Zhang Lan emphasized the problem of basic education in the plan, in Qiao Yu's opinion, this is the most valuable, in a country where more than ninety percent are illiterate, large-scale literacy, improving the quality of the whole people is more important than anything else, but there are also shortcomings in the whole plan, that is, the part of the university, according to Zhang Lan's design, the university is still mainly based on liberal arts, and the part of science and engineering is attributed to vocational education.
In later generations, many people are praising the education of the Republic of China, ideological reading, diversified schooling, academic freedom, and a lot of good things to say, but there are two fatal flaws in the education system of the Republic of China, one is the lack of basic education, resulting in illiteracy everywhere, and the overall national quality has not been improved, and the second is that universities emphasize literature over science, not that the liberal arts are not important, but under the reality that China's industrial science and technology are greatly backward, no matter how many masters you have, you will not be able to produce better weapons, nor can you produce cars, ships, airplanes, and cannons.
Therefore, according to Qiao Yu's opinion, this plan should be more perfect, but when he looked at the budget, Qiao Yu's head was also dizzy for a while, this education is really a swallowing beast, if you want to establish a basic education system covering the whole Sichuan, there will be tens of thousands of primary schools, and there will be about 2,000 middle schools, but the cost of building these schools will be more than 50 million silver dollars, and it must be equipped with enough teachers, and a large number of teaching equipment will be imported from abroad, and there will be no 100 million that cannot be done!
And according to his own ideas, the cost of establishing a comprehensive surname university that is biased towards science and engineering is even more amazing, the liberal arts university has a library, and a few classrooms are enough, while the university of science and technology needs laboratories, and all those experimental equipment must be imported from abroad, and China does not have enough teachers, thinking about these makes Qiao Yu feel bitter in his heart.
"Minister Zhang, this is a problem for me, to be honest, my attention to education is no worse than your Minister Zhang, now what China lacks most is talent, education is the foundation of everything, but now the political axe can't come up with so much money, and it can be said that it may not be able to come out in the next ten years!"
Zhang Lan didn't really expect Qiao Yu to agree to everything, but he just tried his best to fight for it.
"Governor, I know the difficulties of the political axe, but I really can't delay the children, otherwise the gap between China and the world is getting bigger and bigger, I knew when I was studying abroad that they used a lot of the Jiawu indemnity to develop education, if we don't catch up, we can really only lag behind forever!"
"Well, I see if we can divide the implementation of basic education into several more detailed steps, such as ensuring that each county has three to five primary schools in the first stage, a junior high school, and a high school in several counties, and then the next step is to gradually expand, and finally expand to remote areas, I think the first step is easy to achieve on the basis of the Manchu Qing School, and the rest will gradually develop after Sichuan's finances are better, and can also let local wealthy businessmen donate money to support education, and then the school can be named after them, Some preferential taxes are also given, and I think it is still possible to mobilize the active surnames of some businessmen who are enthusiastic about education, and the financial pressure on diversified schools can be much smaller! ”
Zhang Lan listened to Qiao Yu's words and nodded incessantly, he really didn't expect that there are not a few people in Sichuan who are keen on education, and if they can be mobilized, they can indeed quickly establish an education system.
"The governor still has a way, and his mind is flexible!"
"Mr. Biaofang, I think the universities to be established in this plan are liberal arts universities, which is very bad, what China lacks most now is science and engineering talents, which has also become the biggest bottleneck restricting the industrial development of Sichuan.
Zhang Lan heard Qiao Yu's words with criticism, and his face was also red: "Governor, I advocate the establishment of a comprehensive surname university, but there are too many sufferings that cannot be solved, the first is that the investment is too large, the second is the lack of teachers, and the third is that there are not enough factories in China to absorb these people. ”
"Another point is the arrogance of the old-fashioned scholars, looking down on science and engineering, thinking that they work hard, and the liberal arts are playing with pens, how can one expensive and one cheap be together, am I right?"
Zhang Lan naturally knew that what Qiao Yu said was not wrong at all, which is why he classified science and engineering into technical schools in the plan, and subconsciously Zhang Lan also looked down on science and engineering, thinking that scholars should learn as well as before, and now the students in the school are likely to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future, how can they go to school with a group of hard work!
"I have established a technical school in Yucheng, it has been criticized a lot, it can be seen how much the establishment of science and engineering universities will be scolded, but we must establish, this is the foundation of China's strength, how much investment must be done, no teachers will go to foreign countries to recruit with high salaries, and you don't have to worry about the problem of employment in the future, soon the Sichuan Machinery Bureau will be fully expanded, and the United States will cooperate to establish Yucheng Iron and Steel Plant, the rest of the factories will only be more, these factories have a huge talent gap, not only do not have to worry about the problem of no jobs, We also want to recruit all the scattered overseas science and engineering talents back to work together for China! Instead of contributing wisdom to Xiao Yueben! ”
Zhang Lan also knew Qiao Yu's plan now, although there was some reluctance, but Zhang Lan knew that this was the only way for China to become strong.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to invite friends who study science and engineering, and let them come to Sichuan to run education together, I will make a detailed plan now, and then hand it over to the governor!"
"Well, Mr. Biaofang, the future of Sichuan and even China is on this, don't mislead the country and the people because of a little prejudice, the current education is not the same as in the past, I don't need to cultivate a bunch of bureaucrats, I want to cultivate all kinds of talents, maybe the income of science and engineering will be far above the liberal arts, this is the general trend of the times!"
