478, good guide Umeno stone
Coming to the Jushui River behind Zhiwei Building, covering up the tracks to avoid everyone's ears and eyes, Hua Zhenxing sacrificed a small flying bench, and flew away under the guidance of Mei Yeshi with Manman.
Umeno also stood on the small bench to join in the fun, anyway, the small bench can be expanded into a big stage.
If Pingjing and Shanghai are first-tier cities by the standards of the East, then prefecture-level cities like Wucheng are at most fourth-tier. What this kind of city lacks is not suburban land, but real projects that can bring development potential.
The campus of the University of Technology is located in the southern suburbs of Wucheng, with a total area of more than 3,000 acres, almost two square kilometers. From the air, it is clear that there is still a large amount of reserved land in the completed campus.
The emergence of this campus changed the history of Wucheng without a comprehensive university.
At present, the campus has departments and majors such as machinery, materials, computer and information, electrical and automation, energy and chemical engineering, urban construction, ecological environment, logistics management, economics and trade, and food science, all of which are urgently needed by the country and Huanxiangtebang.
As for the majors that are also urgently needed in the country such as civil engineering, water conservancy, transportation, mineral metallurgy, etc., this campus does not have them for the time being, and they will either be solved through other cooperation methods or supplemented in the third phase of construction.
Hua Zhenxing also cannot expect the cooperation with such a campus to solve all problems.
The reason why Hua Zhenxing chose such a university branch for cooperation is of course not because its location happens to be in Wucheng, but after comprehensive consideration from all sides, it has sent people to investigate and compare the situation in advance.
But all he got was an introduction, and he had to ask Umeno Ishig, a local with great powers, for many things.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the school was still on winter vacation, the campus was empty, and several people lowered their height to walk through the campus, and Hua Zhenxing had already built the heart plate of the entire campus in the Yuanshen, while listening to the introduction of Mei Yeshi.
Mei Yeshi's tone was a little emotional, in his opinion, this campus is the most important project in Wucheng in recent years. It's not the icing on the cake, it's not a quick success, it's something that really helps keep the city alive for a long time.
Hua Zhenxing didn't grow up in Dongguo, so there were some situations that he didn't feel deeply or didn't realize it.
The construction and development model of the new alliance has borrowed too much from the experience of the East, bringing a ray of hope and vigorous vitality to that once desperate purgatory.
However, in Mei Yeshi's view, although the development of the eastern country is commendable and is a rare bright spot in the world today, there are also many lessons left over from history, and the country cannot repeat the mistakes of the past.
The predecessors crossed the river by feeling the stones, and the road that was through could be followed, and the pit that was stepped on should not be stepped on again.
Born in 1971, Mei Yeshi grew up in a mountain village on the northern outskirts of Wucheng and did not go to the city until he was 18 years old and in high school.
He has witnessed and experienced first-hand the changes in Dongguo in the past few decades, which has developed from the most mature agricultural country in human history to the largest industrial country.
In his village when he was a child, the collective commune replaced the traditional clan social system, and in addition to farming, his fathers paid the most labor in farmland and water conservancy construction.
It was an era of sustained population and economic growth, but still relatively poor and backward.
After Umenoshi went to elementary school, the commune system was dissolved, and the village began to implement the household contract responsibility system, which entered the state of bearing its own risks and taking responsibility for its own profits and losses, and was cut into a state of taking the family as a social unit.
The continuous accumulation of the primary industry, the systematic layout of the secondary industry has been largely completed, and a large number of demographic dividends have been provided through social transformation, coupled with the introduction of capital, which has opened the process of industrialization.
With the emergence of a large number of township enterprises, the population gathered from villages to townships and entered a stage of production prosperity. In order to reduce the pressure on resources and the environment, the government began to control population growth and implemented a very strict one-child policy.
This policy lasted for almost two generations and ended only a few years ago, but it has become extremely difficult to restore fertility.
Because thousands of years of marriage, family, social structure, ethical system, and even cognitive methods have been dissolved, which has never happened in human history.
If the family and social structure are alienated, then the industrialization, marketization, and capitalization reforms implemented on this basis will also be alienated. It is based on a society in which a family has only one child and lasts for two generations.
Due to the decrease in the number of children raised, a large number of people can continue to be released to participate in social labor in the short term.
From the boom in production to the boom in the market, and in the ensuing wave of marketization, a large number of scattered small enterprises were eliminated or swallowed up and entered the stage of capital concentration. The population has also been further concentrated in the county seats, and a large number of peasants have left the countryside to work in the cities.
Once this trend begins, it takes on an irreversible character.
Some go further because the coastal areas with the greatest investment in resources also have the fastest economic development and provide more job opportunities. At first, they came and went like migratory birds, and their roots were still in their hometown.
After saving money from part-time work, many people return to the village to build beautiful buildings, which has become a way for neighbors to compare. Gradually, however, more and more people are choosing to settle in distant cities where they have taken root.
Those who can really gain a firm foothold in the distant bustling cities are basically the group of people with the strongest social competitiveness, and most of those who have to return to their hometowns in the end are the eliminators in this first batch of social competition.
After the new century, this process accelerated dramatically. If we only look at it locally, the population flows from rural areas to county seats, and then from county towns to regional central cities, such as prefecture-level cities.
As industrialization matured, it was true that there was no longer a need for so many agricultural people. However, with the frantic advancement of marketization and the huge profit drive, the real estate industry began to explode.
New urban areas in every city are expanding rapidly, and it has taken more than a decade to complete the urbanization process that many countries have completed in hundreds of years.
The sustained and rapid development of the economy has improved people's living standards, concentrated the efficiency of resource use, changed the social structure, and changed people's identities and situations.
However, the expansion of any one-way model has a peak, and the population concentration of urbanization also has an inflection point to improve the efficiency of resource use, and exceeding a certain scale will lead to increased consumption and waste of resources.
At first, the population of the county began to decline, and the central urban area continued to absorb the population and resources of the surrounding counties. Since nearly a decade ago, even many cities have begun to lose their population and capital to more developed first- and second-tier cities.
The village where Umeno was born is now very desolate, except for the old people who are children.
Young people have gone out to work, or have bought houses in the county and city. The elderly and children who remain are left behind simply because their children or parents have not yet been able to pick them up.
Whether there is a need for such a village is another issue.
Wucheng City has also entered the stage of blood loss, talents and capital continue to leave, in the state of complete market competition, many local production enterprises closed down and died.
The transfer of production means the transfer of job opportunities, and the employed population will inevitably follow suit, and the service industry will also shrink.
There are two states: the continuous spillover in the process of population growth and the continuous outflow after the population reaches its peak. The real estate industry is the last struggle in this process, sucking away the wealth that a large number of families have accumulated for decades.
This has gradually become a zero-sum game, with the countryside becoming the opponent of the county, the county town becoming the opponent of the urban area, and the periphery city becoming the opponent of the central city...... Even the provinces developed into rival relations with each other.
In the context of a completely liberalized market, the will of capital will inevitably require the increasing concentration of capital, labor, and various social resources.
Dongguo is very large, so there can be multiple centers and sub-centers coexisting. Another extreme example is the Bangli Kingdom in Dongzhou, whose capital, Biaocheng, has gathered one-fifth of the country's population and nearly half of its economic resources.
The problem between cities is still within the same country, and there is also the central government's transfer payment adjustment, which can somewhat buffer the problem of unbalanced development.
But when it comes to the world, there is also a trend between countries, and the marginalized countries are net losses, and there is almost no possibility of recovery.
The position of the country in today's world political and economic system is definitely at the bottom. Therefore, whether at home or abroad, Huazhen Bank must consider these issues in advance.
The high school that Mei Yeshi attended that year was the best high school in Wucheng. He later studied at the best university in Dongguo, which was no less than Chunhua and Pingjing at that time, and is still one of the top universities in Dongguo.
To this day, not many of Mei Yeshi's high school classmates still remain in Wucheng, most of them are government officials, leaders of banks, hospitals, schools, real estate developers, etc.
There are also some people who have also returned to Wucheng to work or start businesses, and once did a good job, but then almost all of them are gone. Those who do well move their businesses to a better location, while those who fail look elsewhere for opportunities.
As for Umenoshi's college classmates back then, there are not many who still stay in China. It is necessary to consider the era in which Umeno Stone lived and his group of college classmates, who were also the top intellectual elites in the Eastern Kingdom at that time.
Many people say that raising the level of education is a prerequisite for social development, but in this case another paradox arises.
The better the basic education in the marginal areas, the more serious the brain drain, and the greater the investment in social and family education, the faster the local blood loss.
Because money is spent on children, people's ability and quality itself is equivalent to the condensation of wealth, and the stronger the competitiveness of children when they grow up, the greater the proportion of children who leave the local area.
So why did Umeno Stone come back and stay in Wucheng all the time? Not because of the identity of the Kunlun Alliance leader, he also represents the inheritance of the Wucheng Mei clan.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty in the Eastern Kingdom, Mei Zhiyan, a righteous man in Wucheng, raised troops to raise an army, and Mei Xiaolang, the son of Mei Zhiyan, returned to Tang Fengbo. Mei Xiaolang's son Mei Xi, whose name is Zhenyi, is the ancestor of Zhengyi.
Mei Yeshi once set up the "Kunlun League Contact Center" in Huishui, where he studied at university, and later moved back to Wucheng Zhiweilou. It can be seen that university is also an important factor when people choose a place of employment and settlement.
The construction of the Wucheng Campus of the University of Technology by the local government is also a self-help measure in a state of constant blood loss. What does it mean for a city to have no universities?
It means that the younger generation in this city, in the most critical period of maturity and growth in life, will almost all leave here, and the better the people, the farther they go, the more they will not come back.
This distance is not only a geographical distance, but also a psychological distance.
The impact of universities on a city in modern society is enormous, and it means a constant influx of young talent, if not, then only a constant outflow.
At least four years of college study, as for whether graduates stay in the local area, it is another matter, and the first problem has to be solved is how to get there.
Many people have a feeling for the city where the university is located, and if the local government can provide suitable employment opportunities, it will become the first choice for many graduates.
After all, if you change cities, you will inevitably be unfamiliar with the place, and familiarity can provide a sense of psychological security.
Therefore, the establishment of the Wucheng campus is also an important local effort to try to recover the state of brain drain. If such a project wants to land, it needs the approval of the Ministry of Education of the East and West, and the Wucheng local government has seized an important opportunity.
Wucheng accepted a group of immigrants from the Wuxia Reservoir and set aside a new area on the outskirts of the city for centralized resettlement, which is a rare large-scale population supplement with a very healthy and reasonable structure in the local area in recent years, and also increases the demand for education.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wucheng won the project.
The project has landed, and college students from all over the world will come to Wucheng every year, and there are also a group of local students in Wucheng who do not have to go to other places to study at universities. But in the next step, how can we keep this batch of graduates?
This requires the local economy to keep up, provide enough jobs, have good conditions and development opportunities, which is much more difficult than building a university......
A few people fell into the clouds and strolled through the campus during the winter vacation, Hua Zhenxing and Man Man didn't talk much, and followed Mei Yeshi to listen to the introduction or complain of the Kunlun League leader.
Hua Zhenxing was a little unsure of the intention of the Mei League, was he lamenting the development status of the city, or was he reminding something?
Leng Buding saw the leader of the Mei League stop and said, "Xiaohua, you not only want to send people to study abroad, but also want to poach graduates from this campus to go to a few miles of country?" ”
Hua Zhenxing replied very honestly: "Yes, I send people from several miles of country to study abroad, and there are only a hundred people at most every year. There is no need to build any apartments for international students here, they live in dormitories with their classmates, and only one person is inserted in each class.
But this campus now has two or three thousand graduates every year. My plan is to poach 1,000 people a year, and if they don't have a suitable place to work after graduation, I can even do it all. ”
Mei Yeshi smiled, shook his head and said, "There won't be many people who are willing to go to the country of Jili right now. ”
Hua Zhenxing: "I know, so I want to come here to read in person, understand their situation and ideas, and do a good job of various publicity and promotion to dispel their concerns."
I can't poach all of them, but it's a good harvest to poach a few hundred people a year. And I didn't directly dig people up in a few miles of country, and I didn't hide it from the leader of the Mei League, I set up a Fangguan Development Group in Pingjing, and I could hire them to work in China first.
After joining the company, they will first do training to understand the development plan of the country, especially Huanxiangtebang, and then focus on various projects, and then send them on overseas business trips...... One step at a time. ”
Mei Yeshi: "I've also heard about this, Director Hua will cost a lot of money, just the initial investment, there must be tens of billions, right?" ”
Hua Zhenxing sighed: "This is also credit mutual quality. ”
What does mutual credit mean? How can two people who have never dealt with each other believe each other?
First of all, you can examine the character and deeds of the other party, which is very simple for Dongguo, because Dongguo has a lot of aid projects in the Black Wilderness Continent, and I have never heard of credit problems here.
But what about the country of several miles? In the past, it was a country that could not be credited at all, and even the regime was overthrown in three days.
Taking hydropower stations as an example, there are three types of aid projects in Dongguo.
The first is that the country pays money and invites the construction unit in the east to build it, and the project is from the country after completion. Dongguo's aid unit got the project payment, and the relevant enterprises exported supporting equipment, and also had follow-up maintenance orders.
This method should be the safest for the eastern side, as long as the construction unit and related enterprises can receive the money.
The second situation is similar to the above, nominally it is still paid by the country, but the source of funds is the policy loans provided by the eastern country, such as medium- and long-term subsidized loans for aid.
The biggest risk of this approach is whether the country will be able to repay the loan on time, and what if there is a debt default?
The third situation is Dongguo's direct investment, after the completion of which Dongguo has the ownership of the hydropower station, or wholly owned, or controlled, or participated in the shares, which is equivalent to Dongguo's overseas assets.
The biggest risk in this situation is the safety of overseas assets.
Credit needs to be accumulated, so where does the initial credit come from? On the one hand, it is necessary for the eastern country to send people to the country of several miles to investigate, and on the other hand, the country of several miles should also show its attitude of trust in the eastern country.
Fangguan Development's investment in the eastern part of the country is actually a huge overseas asset of several miles. Its security is guaranteed only if relations between the two countries are good.
When Mei Yeshi heard this, he said: "The institution is located in Pingjing, and the cost is too expensive. ”
Hua Zhenxing: "Don't do it." ”
Umenoshi: "You really need such an ABP in Pingjing City, but you have a better choice if you cooperate with the education of the Wucheng campus and plan to hire hundreds or thousands of people every year. ”
Hua Zhenxing: "What does Mei Mengzhu mean by this?" ”
Mei Yeshi waved his sleeves very chicly: "Come with me!" ”
The three of them rose into the air again and headed in the direction of the city, and after flying a short distance, Umeno pointed down in the clouds and sent a divine thought.
The area below is close to the new urban area of Wucheng that has expanded in recent years, known as the Economic Development Zone. Many cities have such projects, everyone who understands them, for the purpose of attracting investment, there was a slogan called "building a nest to attract phoenixes".
There are office buildings and workshop-style buildings here, which are neatly planned and beautiful, but many of them are still empty, and there is still a lot of wasteland on the periphery that has not yet been developed.
In recent years, the focus of Wucheng's work has been to implement the "optimization of the business environment" advocated by the state. For powerful enterprises, the development zone can not only provide office buildings, workshops, but also enjoy a variety of local discounts.
If Hua Zhen Hong hires hundreds or thousands of graduates of the University of Technology every year, and arranges them to work in Pingjing, the cost will be astronomical. If Fangguan Development set up a large branch or subsidiary here, it can greatly save costs.
Preliminary training, familiarization with the project, counterpart contact and other work, in today's logistics, transportation, information so developed, where can not be done? As for life, it is also a prefecture-level city, and it lacks nothing.
If you get the same salary, you can live a much more comfortable life here than in Pingjing! Weekday entertainment and leisure projects, almost all of them are available here in Pingjing, and the life pressure is not great, and the scenery is good.
Mei Meng's suggestion, Hua Zhenxing was moved when he heard it, and he finally understood why the other party had such a sigh.
