In the future, the competition between countries is the competition of industrial strength, which could not be clearer, Zhang Tinglan will also focus on the establishment of a sound industrial system, and the core problem of establishing an industrial system is talent.

At this time, China is in short supply of science and engineering talents, and Zhang Tinglan is very pleased to be able to meet the great power of Ba Yuzao, and the method he proposed has also aroused Zhang Tinglan's interest.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tinglan has already made a decision, after returning to Fengtian, he will immediately select a group of clever young people and send them to the United States, not asking them to learn too much, but at least they can give Ba Yuzao a hand.

"Brother Zhang, 500,000 yuan can indeed do a lot of things, but how to manage this money still needs to be considered."

"Or leave it all to Brother Yunhua, it's all up to you."

When Ba Yuzao heard this, he immediately shook his head: "I can't do it, I can't do it!" Brother Zhang trusts me, and I am naturally happy, but I really don't have the energy to take care of these things, and the academic burden is very heavy, and I have to take care of those apprentice workers, and then manage the money, I don't have the ability. ”

Zhang Tinglan nodded when he heard this, this fund will continue to expand in the future, and there will be more and more people to fund, in order to spend every penny on the blade, it is true that a special management agency is needed, and it seems that he has to find a contact with Fred and ask him to find a talent to manage the fund.

They talked for a few more hours, very speculative, and Kuang Rongguang was completely willing to go to Fengtian, and at the same time promised to contact other young children studying in the United States after gaining a firm foothold in Fengtian, and strive to bring in more talents.

In the past, many young children in the United States have already achieved fame, if they want them to do things for themselves, they must have a large enough platform, otherwise the temple will not be able to accommodate these great gods, Zhang Tinglan is full of ambition, and is ready to return to Fengtian to do a big job.

After talking about the big things, Zhang Tinglan said goodbye to Kuang Rongguang and returned to the Six Nations Hotel. Along the way, Zhang Xueliang was also thoughtful, and he suddenly asked: "Brother Tinglan, if I don't marry Yu Fengzhi, will I be as despicable as Yang Shuqing?" ”

Zhang Xueliang's life has a mixed reputation, but there is another point that has to be envied, that is, Yu Fengzhi and Zhao Si are inseparable from each other, which can be called a beautiful talk in the world, and it is Zhang Xueliang's blessing to be able to marry a strange woman like Yu Fengzhi.

"Han Qing, you and Yu Fengzhi are just engaged, you and Yang Shuqing are already married, and it is completely different from having children, you have the right to pursue the freedom of love. But can you guarantee that you will find more haode, the seventh master strongly advocates the marriage between you and Miss Yu, that is, he is optimistic about the other party, I suggest you learn more about Miss Yu, maybe you will be willing! ”

"Big brother, if the sixth brother really likes Miss Yu, then are they an arranged marriage or free love?" Zhang Tingshu also said lively.

"It's really hard to tell, it's enough to have a suitable partner for a lifetime, so why stick to those formal things!"

"Big brother is really reasonable, but when are you going to find me a sister-in-law?"

Although Zhang Tingshu said it was a joke, Zhang Tinglan was almost at the age of marrying a wife, she got married early this year, and there were people holding her son everywhere at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but Zhang Tinglan really didn't think about what to look for.

They talked and laughed and returned to the Liuguo Hotel, and Zhang Tinglan introduced the situation of Kuang Rongguang and Ba Yuzao to Lao Zhang. Zhang Zuolin was of course very happy to be able to recruit such a talent as Kuang Rongguang, and Lao Zhang had written to Yuan Shikai a few months ago, hoping to establish a national normal school in Fengtian.

At present, there are only five national normal schools in China, and if the sixth one settles in Mukden, it will be a great thing for the development of education in Mukden, and Lao Zhang even proposed that Kwong Rongguang be the principal.

"When I was young, I didn't study for a few days, and I had a big regret in my life, and in the future, Fengtian would have to spend a lot of money so that children who wanted to study could read and write, even if they raised tens of thousands of soldiers, they had to run a university."

Zhang Zuolin, a reckless hero, attaches great importance to education, and Zhang Tinglan is also very emotional, after Lao Zhang took power in the northeast, he did this, and the county and city governments want to take out 40 percent of their financial revenues to run education, and the investment is beyond imagination.

However, from the point of view of the effect, Mukden did not cultivate the much-needed industrial talents, and the factories still had to hire a large number of Japanese technicians, without the help of the Japanese, the industry in the Northeast would hardly be able to play.

This has an important relationship with attaching importance to liberal arts and ignoring science and engineering, Lao Zhang invested the money, but did not manage the money well, in other words, Zhang Zuolin trusted those scholars too much, and thought that education should be free enough, but as a result, the money was wasted in the wrong direction and did not receive enough results.

Fengtian's foundation is very thin, even if 40 percent of the financial resources are used, it is difficult to meet the needs of education, so the focus of education should be on the cultivation of practical talents, focusing on the development of normal, science and engineering, and medicine and other majors, to provide talents for the industrialization of Fengtian, as for literature and history and other majors should be put aside, Zhang Tinglan suddenly felt that it was necessary to talk to Lao Zhang about education.

He was thinking about it, Zhang Xueliang said the situation of scolding Yang Shuqing vividly, and after Lao Zhang heard it, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Tinglan, Professor Yang is a well-known scholar, it may not be as unbearable as you say, we still have to respect people who are knowledgeable and capable, they are national scholars."

Lao Zhang's group of warlords have a lot of respect for scholars, and they also give them too much preferential treatment after taking power, even to the point of connivance, so when he heard Zhang Tinglan scold a professor, he instinctively objected, but Zhang Tinglan has a special status, and if he is replaced by someone else, Lao Zhang is afraid that he will be scolded.

"The water of the Yellow River is turbid, the water of the Yangtze River is clear, but the water of the Yangtze River can also be flooded, flooding the land of several provinces, and the water of the Yellow River also irrigates the fields of several provinces on both sides of the river.

Zhang Tinglan took out Emperor Jiajing's theory of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and put it in the current situation, which is exactly very appropriate, academic freedom and education should also attach importance to humanities, but on the one hand, it depends on the era in which it is located, and on the other hand, it is necessary to control the degree.

Now that China has been opened by guns, the land of Kyushu is allowed to run rampant by foreigners, and the people of Li are hungry and cold, at this time, it is natural to use all the liliang on things related to the strong country, relying on poetry, writing articles can not drive away the invaders, only iron and blood, only guns can revitalize the country.

And those who bring advanced weapons and powerful military strength are science and engineering talents, that is, industrialized production capacity, and then invest precious funds in liberal arts at this time is actually a crime against the nation.

"Seven masters, these literati are far from being as good as imagined, such as the dispute between traditional and simplified characters, it is difficult to write and read traditional characters, and it will take at least five years for a person to become proficient in using traditional characters. For ordinary people, they simply can't let a child do nothing for five years, just reading, this is an invisible door, blocking the path of ordinary people's quest for knowledge, only those who have a solid family, the descendants of those who have a tradition of reading can read and learn. ”

Zhang Tinglan said this, Lao Zhang's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of essence, and his expression was a little painful, Zhang Tinglan just said what was on his mind, Lao Zhang relied on his husband's alms when he was young, and only studied private school for a period of time. Not only him, but also Zhang Zuoxiang, who only studied in private school for two or three years before having to give up his studies.

"Seven masters, if you use simplified characters, it only takes about three years to recognize all the commonly used words, learn basic reading and writing, and be able to continue your studies. If simplified Chinese characters are widely promoted, many children of ordinary people will be able to go to school, and they will have the opportunity to change their fate. However, there are a large number of literati who desperately stop them, they say what cultural traditions, what calligraphy is beautiful, what calligraphy is beautiful, no matter how many excuses there are, I only summarize one point, that is, to raise the threshold and monopolize knowledge! ”

Lao Zhang is so shrewd, he just didn't think about it, after Zhang Tinglan broke it, Lao Zhang suddenly became enlightened, that's right, those people who read do have their own abacus. Traditional Chinese characters are difficult to learn and write, take a long time, and ordinary people can't afford it, so naturally only their descendants can read and study, and the competitive pressure in their circle is much less.

Throughout the Republic of China, it was very common for fathers, sons, and brothers to be cultural celebrities, which was the result of monopolizing knowledge. After the popularization of education in later generations, this situation will not be there, even if the parents are famous, and the children do not work hard, they will be eliminated, although the children of poor families and the rich are on different starting lines, some suffer, but in the Republic of China, they are not even qualified to enter the competition.

"I understand, I understand, these readers really have too many eyes!" Lao Zhang said with a wry smile: "Tinglan, your brain is alert, you can see it thoroughly, in the future, Fengtian will promote simplified Chinese characters in education, it doesn't matter if it's beautiful or not, Lao Tzu only cares about practicality." ”

Zhang Tinglan made a big fuss at Peking University, which soon became the biggest news, and the famous professor was challenged by an unknown junior, which was absolutely explosive.

The students present at that time relied on their memories to write out the conversations between the two people, especially what Zhang Tinglan said, and did it as much as possible to do it word for word, all of which were published in the newspaper, Yang Shuqing also called friends and companions, contacted a large number of literati, and began to write articles, crusading against warlords and cubs to slander education and insult scholars.

This made Zhang Tinglan unexpected, and the eldest prince Yuan Keding deliberately found Zhang Tinglan after understanding the situation.

"Tinglan, you still have the ability, for so many years, those professors pointed their noses and scolded us, but we didn't know how to fight back, but you gave me a breath."

"Eldest Prince, I don't think there is a need to fight or be afraid to deal with these literati. It's about fighting, fighting for the power of public opinion, and they can't just say what they want! ”

"That's a good point, Tinglan, I'm in a bit of a difficult situation right now, you can help me find a way!"
