Completely out of the expectations of Chang Ruiqing and his senior thinkers, Chang Ruiqing came up with a way to solve the talent bottleneck faced by China's education industry, and it was Chang Ruiqing's alternate private secretary, a very beautiful, cute fifteen-year-old Lori Sun Yuexun Sun Xiao Lori. Little Lori has just graduated from Jinling Girls' High School, and has been admitted to the Central Army Military Academy. These days, she stayed in the Tangshan Mansion of Chairman Chang Da, serving as a free secretary for the dictator of Chang Da -- copying and writing, sorting out letters and manuscripts, serving tea and water, and personally testing for poison, and sometimes doing a little massage of the opposite sex.

In short, he served the Chairman wholeheartedly. And such a reciprocal effort, of course, also made Chang Ruiqing's favor for her skyrocket-this is a natural thing, any dictator who is unknowingly entering middle age can hardly resist the temptation of such a cute-looking Lori who is also throwing herself to the ground!

The first thing that comes with the increase in favorability is the proximity of the two sides. After Chang Ruiqing's nod and agreement, Xiao Lori moved out of the original small building that seemed to be a prison cell, and lived in Chang Ruiqing's own newly completed big house. Her room was next door to Chang Ruiqing's study. Of course, she still can't go in and out of the study without permission, and there are strict rules in the activity area! However, Chang Ruiqing is very willing to let this little Lori appear by his side, and he is also willing to let his group of senior staff see the scene of himself and Xiao Lori together - this probably also has an element of showing off, right? After all, Sun Yuexun is not an ordinary girl, and including her in the "harem" is also a manifestation of supreme authority, and now Chang Ruiqing has become more and more addicted to high authority!

"Xiaomei," this is Chang Ruiqing's name for Sun Yuexun, using the word "beauty" in her Japanese name "Fumi", which probably also means little beauty, right? He pointed to his little beauty, and said to Yan Xishan and Kong Xiangxi, who came to visit: "She is also a non-commissioned officer student of the sixth phase of Huangpu now, and she is from the communications department, and she will go to the military academy after the summer vacation." ”

Sun Yuexun held a tray and brought three cups of freshly brewed tea. A cup was placed on the coffee table next to Yan Xishan and Kong Xiangxi. There was also a cup of Chang Ruiqing's, she took a sip of it herself before putting it on the coffee table next to Chang Ruiqing. Then he stood aside with a smile, waiting for Chang Ruiqing's orders. Such a move made Yan Xishan and Kong Xiangxi a little surprised. But neither of the old foxes showed it to their faces. Just smiled and nodded at little Lori. Continue to talk to Chang Ruiqing

They came to Chang Ruiqing's official residence today to formulate and implement the First Five-Year Plan. Out of the need for national defense security and participation in the future imperialist war for hegemony, Chang Ruiqing always hopes that the development can be faster and the pace can be bigger. Yan Xishan and Kong Xiangxi emphasized the difficulties together, in fact, both of them felt that Chang Ruiqing was a little happy. It's just that it's inconvenient to talk about it, so I use talent and education to prevaricate.

Yan Xishan told Chang Ruiqing that the State Development Planning Commission and the Ministry of Education have been holding meetings for several days to study the problem, but there is no solution to the problem. After all, it has only been 15 years since China abolished the imperial examination, and it has also experienced nine years of civil and foreign wars after the Republic of China. It has only been a little over a year since the country settled down. Although the Tongguò National Revolution established a strong regime and regained all state power after the Four Kingdoms War, the financial situation improved considerably, which could well support a faster growth rate of heavy industry. However, the issue of human resource training is unlikely to be effective in the short term...... The universities that have been invested and built in the past two years have only now been built one after another, and a large number of students will be enrolled in the next two years, and it will be four or five years before these new students are trained, and then there will be enough teachers in secondary schools in various places. By the time the middle school students they teach graduate from university, it will be fourteen or fifteen years later, and then the problem of Chinese shortage will be alleviated. However, these freshmen who have just graduated from university are unlikely to become excellent engineers and technicians immediately. So the development of heavy industry in China as a whole. For a long time in the future, we will be plagued by a lack of talents, and it is impossible to achieve excessive pursuit of high speed, and even if it is barely realized, it will inevitably be low level and low efficiency.

"In fact, in 10 or 15 years, our industry will still be enough to provide weapons and equipment for millions or even tens of millions of army forces." Kong Xiangxi patiently explained: "The technical content of producing cannons, rifles, machine guns, and ammunition is not high. We can always find a sufficient number of skilled workers and engineers. ”

"But I also need tanks, planes, warships, submarines, and even some more advanced weapons (atomic bombs, presumably)." Chang Ruiqing said gently. He knew the pattern of World War II, and it was not enough to have artillery, rifles, and machine guns, even if he could keep the country from perishing. But it's not enough to get the territory he wants! What's more, the Second World War in this time and space is likely to be completely different from the historical one! In the event of a situation in which the USSR or Germany dominates Europe. China will have to have a more modern army to protect itself! Moreover, the atomic bomb project will be launched no matter what. This involves the improvement of the level of the entire industrial system, not just a few industrial categories. He said calmly, "Can we let middle school students teach middle school students?" He glanced at Little Lori: "Xiaomei, can you be a middle school teacher?" ”

"Being a teacher? Me? Little Lori blinked her eyes, thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I can't do it, I have to learn when I am a teacher, I haven't learned." ”

Chang Ruiqing said: "Why do you have to learn? Can't you teach according to the textbook? If the students are smart enough, they can learn on their own. "He's been a smart student who doesn't need to be taught much in this life......

"There aren't enough teachers in China right now, are they?" Little Lori asked with a smile.

"Nope! The country is so miserable that there are not even tens of thousands of teachers who can teach middle school. Chang Ruiqing pondered in his heart as he spoke, it seems that the China taken over by GCD in history is stronger than his own! At least hundreds of thousands of knowledge points can be found to be branded as rightists...... If this rightist indicator is put in the present, I am afraid that there is no way to complete it no matter what!

"Why don't you ask for it from abroad?" Sun Yuexun pursed her lips and whispered: "You can invite some from Japan, Japanese teachers have very small salaries, and they are also very responsible, and they all have a certain Chinese foundation, at least they can understand ......"

"Sit, I think it's okay." Kong Xiangxi interjected: "Now that Japan has downgraded Korea to a colony, all the original compulsory education has been abolished, and high schools and universities have all been closed. Many Japanese and North Korean teachers have lost their jobs. There are always 8,000 of these people together, but they are all professionally trained. The most important thing is that we can afford it, and the income requirements of Japanese and Koreans are not high. ”

"With the Japanese?" Chang Ruiqing narrowed his eyes and said to Kong Xiangxi: "Do you believe those Japanese? ”

"Isn't Japan on good terms with us?" Kong Xiangxi's eyes rolled and said, "And what do we have to worry about?" Are you afraid that those Japanese teachers will ruin our children's education? ”

"Teach pro-Japanese thoughts!" Chang Ruiqing turned to Yan Xishan and said, "Mr. Baichuan, you are a Zhiri faction, do you think there is such a possibility?" ”

The current Sino-Japanese relations are very good on the surface. The foreign policy that Chang Ruiqing is now implementing is not a routine of long-distance friendship and close-range attack. Rather, after demonstrating his strength, he maintained friendly relations with Japan and Russia. However, the mind of defending Japan and Russia has not been put down.

"At least they don't propagate anti-Japanese ideas, do they?" Yan Xishan said with a smile. "But the teachers we have to hire from Japan are teachers who teach math and science, English, art and music...... There is no shortage of language, history, and political teachers who are responsible for instilling ideas in students. Besides, many of today's college students, middle school students, and military cadets have also been taught by Japanese teachers, have they all become pro-Japanese? When he said this, he secretly glanced at Chang Ruiqing, this Standing Committee Chairman was there

Haven't the Army Primary School, the Army Middle School, and the Baoding Military Academy been taught by Japanese instructors?

"Right now, Japan's national policy is to go south. I know that their propaganda at home is also Sino-Japanese goodwill and pan-Asianism. Kong Xiangxi said with a smile. Moreover, we can afford to hire Japanese teachers, but if we replace them with European and American teachers, the Ministry of Education will not be able to afford them. ”

"Otherwise, you can only take your time, in another five or six years." Yan Xishan said.

"It's not enough, when the time comes, the primary school students of the six-year compulsory education will have to go to middle school." Chang Ruiqing said. "There are always more than 10 million people a year. Twenty percent of them go on to secondary school, and there are two to three million new students every year! ”

Chang Ruiqing knows that although the total population of China is less than 500 million, about only 40% of the future generations, there are a lot of young people who need to be educated!

"Then please," Yan Xishan said after taking a sip of tea. "At present, the great powers of the East and the West all regard national education as a top priority, and generally implement a nine-year compulsory education system, and the number of high schools, universities, and various technical schools is also extremely large. It is no exaggeration to say. The basis of the industrialization of the great powers was their well-developed education system! ”

Chang Ruiqing was silent. "Mr. Baichuan is right, education is the foundation of a strong country, and there is no shortcut to education, we must do practical things in a down-to-earth manner." He stood up and walked a few steps, turned back to Yan Xishan and Kong Xiangxi, and said, "Mr. Baichuan." Mr. Yongzhi, the First Five-Year Plan will include separate education projects, and I would like to ask Premier Chen to convene an education work conference with the participation of the chief officials of the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, and the Department of Education Directorate of the National Defense Forces. Let's talk about it again. ”

……

The top level of the Chinese Nationalist Government was discussing the news of inviting foreign teachers from Japan when the news reached Tanaka's ears. He was worried about the Treaty on the Limitation of Naval Armaments. Although Chang Ruiqing has privately assured him that China will "transfer" its capital ship construction quota to Japan. But at the Shanghai meeting. Britain, the United States, and Japan still had a fierce quarrel over the total tonnage of the navy's capital ships.

In the navies of the great powers of this era, such an opinion has always been circulated. The total tonnage of capital ships is equal to sea supremacy, and sea supremacy is equal to world hegemony! The hegemony of the British Empire was built on the gross tonnage of her capital ships, which was the largest in the world. The German Navy, the second largest in the world, was only a surviving fleet throughout the world war because the total tonnage of capital ships was much less than that of the British Navy. And then the idea arose that the Navy has only the first, not the second! Therefore, spending a huge amount of money to build a world's second-largest navy is tantamount to wasting money, and it is better to grit your teeth and spend more money to build the world's first-class navy.

It was under the control of this kind of thinking that the United States insisted on having the same total tonnage of capital ships as Britain - the two countries were tied for the first place, but the industrial strength of the United States far exceeded that of Britain, and it could quickly build more capital ships after the outbreak of war to overwhelm Britain!

And Britain also understands its industrial weakness, and does not dare to compete with the United States in shipbuilding, but it is unwilling to give up its position as a world hegemon. So they came up with the British Empire's best trick -- a patchwork alliance, and this time the goal of the British was to piece together a "British-Japanese-Chinese anti-American alliance" led by Britain.

But the British were also very uneasy about the two Asian yellow peoples, China and Japan, and feared that they would unite against the white hegemony in the world. Therefore, while winning over China and Japan, Britain also wants to restrict China and Japan and divide China and Japan. They are worried about the rumors that China is ready to commission Japan with the construction of capital ships! Therefore, the British diplomats and military personnel attending the Shanghai Conference have been doing everything possible to sabotage Sino-Japanese relations during this time. It is also hoped that British shipyards will build capital ships for China, and Britain will train officers for the Chinese navy. Trying to create a pro-British Chinese navy out of this.

As for the Japanese Navy, it has now put forward two plans for seizing sea supremacy in the Pacific Ocean, namely, the "seventy-percent theory toward the United States" and the "Sino-Japanese joint first theory." According to these two plans, the total tonnage of the capital ships of the Japanese Navy should reach at least 70% of that of the US Navy, and the sum of the tonnage of the capital ships of the Chinese and Japanese navies should reach the first place in the world! In fact, it was to allow the Japanese Navy to have the world's largest total tonnage of naval capital ships at the beginning of the war! Because according to the national policy of going south that Japan is currently implementing. It is quite possible that they will come into conflict with Britain and the United States at the same time in the future. So it is necessary to have the most powerful navy in the world to win!

"I sincerely ask Your Excellency to support the Navy's 400,000-ton capital ship construction plan, and at the same time strengthen the Japan-China alliance by strong means!"

Several high-ranking generals of the Japanese Navy, sitting in the conference room of the Prime Minister's official residence, raised the proposal aloud to Prime Minister Yoshiichi Tanaka.

According to the news that came out of the Shanghai meeting. After some bargaining, the ratio of the total tonnage of capital ships of the British and American navies will be roughly 1:1, and each has about 500,000 tons of total tonnage of capital ships. According to the Japanese Navy's "seventy-percent theory against the United States," they need to have a total tonnage of 350,000 tons of capital ships. Now the construction plan of 400,000 tons is proposed, in fact, there is room for counter-offer.

"400,000 tons? The bottom line should be 350,000 tons, right? Can it be reduced a little more? Yoshiichi Tanaka gently banged on the conference table, his face full of embarrassment. On the issue of the tonnage of the Navy's capital ships, Japan has already exchanged views with the British side. Britain built a capital ship with no more than 300,000 tons, and at the same time concluded a "Anglo-Japanese-Chinese Security Treaty" to jointly maintain peace and stability in the western Pacific and the East Asian continent. Many Japanese dignitaries, including Tanaka Yoshiichi himself, were very moved by this treaty. In their view, it will be 10 or 15 years before the national policy of going south will be implemented, and before that, Japan also needs a stable external environment. It would be nice to be able to sign such a treaty.

Navy Minister Yuzaburo Kato and Navy Commander Caibu Biao exchanged glances with each other, and said hesitantly: "If the future is pinned on the Anglo-Japan-China Security Treaty and Sino-Japanese goodwill, the total tonnage of 300,000 tons of capital ships is completely sufficient. However, if the national policy of going south is to be implemented, the total tonnage of capital ships is still as large as possible. Moreover, the Empire also had to prevent Sino-Japanese relations from being divided by the British, and the Empire and China were currently apart from a non-aggression pact. No binding treaties have been signed. ”

"The national policy of going south must be implemented." Tanaka glanced at Foreign Minister Kita Ikki next to him. "Beijun, is it possible for the empire to form an alliance with China?"

Kita Ikki is a pro-China faction in Japan, and in history, he has strongly advocated an alliance between China and Japan to oppose Britain, the United States and Russia, and at this time and space, he is even more eager to promote the alliance between the two countries. But the Chinese side is now pursuing a "non-aligned policy". It was very embarrassing for him, a pro-China faction.

He pondered and said: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Xia Guan believes that the Sino-Japanese alliance will be realized in the future. But the conditions are not ripe at the moment. Both the empire and China need Western money and technology for their development, and if the two sides conclude an alliance, it will certainly arouse the vigilance of the West, and I am afraid that it will block the policies of our two countries. ”

"Even if you can't make an alliance openly, you should sign a secret treaty." Navy Minister Kato said. "The Navy must ensure that it gets the 150,000-ton gross tonnage capital ships of the Chinese Navy before the outbreak of war."

"Beijun, is this possible?"

"Probably, Your Excellency, the development of China requires the help of the Empire, and they are currently seeking to hire tens of thousands of teachers from the Empire to teach with them. Xia Guan believed that the empire could fully ask China to conclude a secret treaty. At the same time, however, the Empire and China should also conclude a Security Treaty with Britain. ”

"Assist China in developing their education?" Tanaka Yoshiichi lowered his head and was silent for a long time, "Beijun, will this speed up China's industrialization?" ”

Bei Yihui thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively: "Yes!" China will train millions of skilled workers five years ahead of schedule, and there may be tens of thousands of engineers and technicians with a certain high level of professionalism a few years ahead of schedule. ”
