ps: I'm sorry, because Eleven's manuscript is a little rough, and it has just been corrected! Thanks to the reader Da "Q76", "Yunnan", "Ding Shenghua", "Rogue Han", "Heap of Stones", "Tragic Eagle", "Republic", "Uchun" for rewarding 888 Zongheng coins, and finally thank the reader Da "ao said, "Since the professors are so well paid and the university is relatively well funded, why can't you build a science and technology laboratory?" Is it just because the experimental equipment is expensive, Wang Fan, it is now 1943, you must know that 20 years ago, that is, in the 20~30s, the level of science and technology and experimental equipment at that time were not so expensive that we could not afford it! ”

"Why is that?" Wang Fan asked.

"The real reason is that when the Republic of Yan and Huang were just founded, during the reign of the Beiyang warlords, the ratio of science students and science students in the universities of Yan and Huang was extremely unbalanced - the number of students studying law and art was the only one, accounting for more than 90% of the total number of students, it is hard to imagine!" Lao Mao said a number that shocked Wang Fan.

“90%！？ How is this possible? Wang Fan couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard such an outrageous ratio.

"Unfortunately, that's the way it is. At that time, there were very few students studying engineering and agriculture at the university, and there were no business majors, and there were very few professors in China who could teach these courses. Only medicine is slightly stronger, but it is also too good to be very good. Tsinghua University, which was famous for being "the first in science" in later generations, still focused on politics and law, science and theology in the 20~30s, and the number of science graduates every year never exceeded 100! Lao Mao continued.

"Can't the country's leadership see such drawbacks?" Wang Fan felt that since they could reach the top of a country, they could not be really stupid, they may sometimes deliberately pretend to be stupid, but they could never be really ignorant, after all, most of the people who could reach high positions in the past were elites, they could receive the best education, enjoy the best resources, and have the most broad horizons.

"I know that." Liu Shaoqi continued, "I have studied for a period of time and found that studying science and engineering was faced with two difficulties, on the one hand, there are too few teachers in this area in China, if you really want to learn a little practical advanced technology, you can only study abroad." Moreover, after completing their studies, it is difficult to find a job with a professional counterpart after returning to China, so they can only stay overseas to make a living. Our country's industrial foundation is too backward, and returned engineers and scientists cannot find suitable jobs unless they set up their own factories and start their own businesses (compared to those returnees who are scientific practitioners). On the other hand, and especially important, Yanhuang has traditionally been a country ruled by officials. And the so-called official is in many cases another face of the person. If you think about it, in the ancient history of Yan Huang, those well-known people and inkmen, whether they were famous or not, were always inextricably linked to the ruling class. ”

Therefore, higher education under the feudal imperial examination system, such as "Guozijian" and "Taixue", was actually a specialized training institution for senior bureaucrats. The same is true of the predecessor of Peking University, "Beijing Normal University Hall". Historically, many Yan and Huang people read the books of sages, and they must say benevolence, righteousness and morality, claiming to take the world as their own responsibility, but in fact, they have long been away from the actual production of society for many years, and they like to stay in the study to do learning, and extremely despise manual labor and realistic construction. In the same way, in the early years of the Republic of China, the reason why those Beiyang warlords were very polite to the teachers and students on the university campuses was not entirely because they themselves made ideological progress and attached importance to education, but on the contrary, in their minds, they still continued the old thinking of the feudal dynasties in the past, and generally regarded those universities in Beiping City as high-level bureaucratic reserves such as "Taixue" and "Guozijian", and naturally they should be treated well and have a polite attitude. Lao Mao added.

It can also be understood in this way, whether it is the ancient Yan and Huang periods, or the Republic of China period, the scholars and the people at the bottom who have the right to speak live in two different worlds, Wang Guowei commented that the so-called history is just a genealogy of emperors and generals, which can be described as one word. To paraphrase the words of the later generations where you are, the people at the bottom were 'represented' during the Republic of China! Zhou Eni said again.

In the turbulent years, on the one hand, there were blind and out-of-school children everywhere, and the whole blank national industry, on the other hand, many masters who were full of "Republic of China style" squandered the little education funds they had, leisurely studied history, philosophy, calligraphy and painting art and other "traditional Chinese studies" that lacked practical significance, or translated some Western classics, but turned a blind eye to the backward and ignorant people of the Republic of China, and also boasted of being the pillar of the country and the backbone of society. But what is very sad is that once the country is stable and the standard of living is improved, the people naturally have the inner pursuit of improving the quality of education and education, and at that time, most of the people who received the information from books were translated by these 'masters', and it was almost foreseeable that admiration, longing, envy, and so on came, and as for the basic needs such as food, clothing, and life before these times, they were all taken as the state and society should provide. However, the grassroots producers such as farmers, workers, scientists, etc., who provide these materials for production and daily life, have been ignored to the dust of history! Lao Mao concluded.

"Chen Guofu, you know, in 1932 he was the Minister of Education of the Bald Party Nationalist Government, and in May of that year he proposed the "Reform of Education Program" in an attempt to reverse the absurd situation of a surplus of science students and a shortage of science students, but because of this, there was an uproar in the education circles, which caused a fierce debate, and it took several revisions before it was reluctantly passed. And although it passed, until the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, when the national disaster was at hand, 70% of Quan Yanhuang's college students were still studying. The remaining 30% of college students are mostly studying medicine or business. There are not a few professional engineers who can really play the best role in modern warfare and guide workers in building arsenals, maintenance shops, and war-ready highways, but they cannot find a few lanterns, and the masters who have been relocated to the "Southwest Associated Congress" can only publish a few articles in the newspapers and periodicals in support of the "spiritual supply" of the war of resistance. In short, in the circle of Mr. of the Republic of China University, there is a lack of technical personnel urgently needed for modernization in the general sense, not to mention agricultural experts like Yuan Longping in later generations! Zhou Eni answered.

"The information you brought, we can read it when we have time, it's very interesting and inspiring." Liu Shaoqi continued: "After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the reason why the main plane of Yan and Huang wanted to call on the sons and daughters of Yan and Huang all over the world to come back to build the motherland was actually because a large part of the best science talents of the Yan and Huang nation at that time were scattered abroad. However, in domestic universities, only a group of masters of Chinese studies can be found, and there are very few real engineering and technical experts. Among those materials, there is a 1930 statistic, in 11 villages in Qingyuan County, Hebei Province, there are more than 2,000 households with tens of thousands of people, a total of only 7 bicycles, 6 flashlights, 2 hot water bottles, and no radio. When we founded the country in 1949, Yanhuang was still a purely agricultural country, and the national steel output was only 150,000 tons, so ordinary people in the countryside rarely saw steel products in their homes, and agricultural tools were often only wrapped with a layer of iron in the most critical parts, and the wheels of the wheelbarrow were wooden, and the carriages of the rich had iron-clad wheels. The bucket at home is made of wood, and the water scoop is a big gourd cut in half. Buying a kitchen knife can help a farmer empty the savings they have saved for a year. If it weren't for Wang Fan, even if we won the world, we still have a long, long way to go, we are very grateful to you for this, thank you!! ”

"Indeed, thank you sincerely, Wang Fan!" Lao Mao continued.

"Thank you!" Mr. Zhou also said.

"No, don't, I'm just lucky. By the way, how was Shanghai during the Republic of China? I heard that it is very prosperous? Wang Fan was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the topic.

"Shanghai, I can only say it's weird! Didn't you ask how female textile workers in Shanghai could earn more than 30 yuan a month? Hehe, it's not good for us to deny this directly. But my guess is that the female worker should be a senior technician, that is, a master who teaches other new female workers, and this kind of position is usually only hired for three months, which is a short period of time. The second possibility is that the issuance is a gold yuan coupon, and you know the speed of depreciation. According to our intelligence system, in Shanghai, the female spinning workers who have just been recruited into the factory are paid three cents a day, and they are only nine yuan a month. And the old workers who are very skilled are about 14 silver dollars a month. After all, the maid of Lu Xun's family has a monthly salary of only 3 yuan in addition to food and accommodation! Liu Shaoqi continued: "And only a small part of the wages stipulated on the surface can actually fall into the hands of workers, because there are a lot of gangsters and villains who pick up their skins, and they are all fierce and abnormal. In the early twenties, Shanghai Feixing Rickshaw Company implemented a fixed salary, with each driver paying four dimes a day and a monthly salary of 12 yuan. But the coachman only got a dime and a half a cent a day, and he didn't even drink enough porridge, and most of the remaining half was deducted by the foreman with a gang background. ”

"In addition to wages, the living conditions of the people at the bottom are very poor, just talk about the cost of living of those petty bourgeoisie in Shanghai, I will give you an example before the Anti-Japanese War: a petty bourgeois couple living in Shanghai, male graduated from the University of Political Science and Law, and worked as a small clerk in a bald party organ in Shanghai; The female graduated from Beijing Women's Normal University, worked as a full-time housewife, and gave birth to 4 children. At that time in Shanghai, the monthly salary of the average company employee was about 20 silver yuan, but this husband had a monthly salary of 60 yuan, which was very good.

However, due to the high prices in Shanghai and several times the price in Beijing, the man was already very earning, but the couple's life was still very difficult - they could not afford to rent an entire apartment, so the family of six had to live in a half-room apartment, separated from the neighbors by wooden planks, and spread out about 20 square meters. The monthly rent for this half apartment was 13 yuan, which later rose to 20 yuan, and 10 oceans of water and electricity bills were charged every month. With these two things alone, half of the family's income will be gone, and the rest of the money will be used up for meals and buying Western milk powder for the children, so they have basically not saved money after eight years of marriage. Therefore, except for a very small number of people who are crazy about the Republic of China, I think that the vast majority of people who do not look at the actual living conditions of the people during the Republic of China period nor the economic statistics of the national period, but only selectively and consciously pay attention to the poetic and elegant life of those few elites. Zhou Eni added.

"I understand~~" Wang Fan nodded and replied.

Late at night, Wang Fan, who was lying on the bed, tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

"Still thinking about the 'Republic of China Fan'?" Yadi asked.

"Yes!"

"Don't worry too much, I think it's more appropriate to use a sentence on the Internet to describe your country before and after the founding of the country." Yadea said.

"What?"

"When someone is born, the country is regarded as a beautiful and weak woman, anyone can go to her bed as long as they like, and when someone dies, at least in this world, no country dares to speak lightly about the topic of war against Yan Huang!" Yadi said lightly.
