"Jianwu, it has been proved that your simplified Chinese character scheme and pinyin scheme have a huge learning advantage, I don't care what other places think, our base area, must be fully promoted." The Grand Brigade Commander was simply shocked to see such a huge advantage in simplifying Chinese characters.

Especially seeing those soldiers who have no cultural foundation, they trained with Gao Jianwu for a month, and basically mastered more than 1,000 Chinese characters.

This means that after a month of training, most illiterate people can learn basic reading and writing, and more than 1,000 Chinese characters can understand the daily newspapers and periodicals.

What's more, these illiterate warriors have completely mastered the pinyin method and can learn new Chinese characters on their own.

"Brigade commander, there are no specific instructions above, how can we comprehensively promote it?" Gao Jianwu asked puzzled.

"It's very simple, we will start to use simplified Chinese and pinyin at the same time in official documents and newspapers in the base area." The Grand Brigade Commander is not only satisfied with training, but also uses it in one step in terms of application.

This method of operation of the Grand Brigade Commander not only increased a lot of input in official documents and newspapers, but also made it public. According to Gao Jianwu's understanding of the public opinion situation, it is inevitable that he will be subjected to tremendous pressure from public opinion.

Maybe he will also suffer fierce verbal and written criticism.

"Brigade Commander, isn't it a bit too risky for us to do this, in case the blame is blamed, can we afford this responsibility?" Although Gao Jianwu was also in a hurry to promote it, he knew very well that if such a major event was to be done on his own, if the higher authorities had to investigate and hold him accountable, it would be light to remove the brigade commander from his post and investigate it.

"Afraid of what? What's the matter, I'll carry it alone. The Grand Brigadier shook his head indifferently. Obviously, there is such a good thing, but if it is not promoted, I think this is a crime against the people. ”

"Brigade commander, if you're not afraid, then I'll have nothing. I'll go down and train a few more batches of this teacher training. Gao Jianwu was also inspired by the brigade commander's arrogance, in fact, he was the least afraid of this.

"No, you don't want to get involved in this matter, how many big things are in your hands, you can't nest here to do these small things. Don't talk about those teachers, even if I make this a mess, it's not difficult at all. "The brigade commander took Gao Jianwu out and prepared to do it himself.

On the one hand, he is really not afraid of what opinions and treatments the superiors have on him. In the base areas under his control, the specific implementation of most major policies can be operated flexibly, and the promotion of simplified Chinese characters is only a part of people's livelihood.

It's not a big deal to make any more mistakes.

However, the repercussions of this incident in the cultural circles are so great, if there is really any mistake to be held responsible, perhaps Gao Jianwu, the initiator, will bear the greatest responsibility.

The brigade commander doesn't know whether this matter is good or bad, so if he can take Gao Jianwu out of the middle, then take it out first, not to mention that Gao Jianwu's time is really precious, and there are so many scientific and technological projects in his hands that need to be realized, and now except for Gao Jianwu, who can co-ordinate, no one else has this ability.

Gao Jianwu thought about it, and it was the same thing. There are so many things he needs to manage right now. Don't say anything else. Now just finding a sufficient number of qualified workers is enough for him to have a headache.

Industrial development requires a large number of skilled workers, and the skilled workers in the cities are now being absorbed by the mushrooming factories.

Gao Jianwu now wants to develop light industry on a large scale. The number of skilled workers needed is measured in millions. In a short period of time, there is simply no ability to convert so many skilled workers from the countryside.

Therefore, Gao Jianwu had to start from the source and began to open professional vocational colleges in the base area.

It's just that starting a school from the selection of school sites to the allocation of teachers is simply complicated, even if Gao Jianwu just provides ideas and lets his subordinates implement the undertaking, but these schools set up majors, where to select teachers, and what kind of courses to set up, for people in this era, no one knows better than Gao Jianwu.

So Gao Jianwu had to do these trivial things himself.

According to the distribution of population and future industrial planning, Gao Jianwu put the school site in the center of the future industry, taking into account the density of the population, ensuring that the school is placed in a large population area and reducing the cost of population flow.

In this way, Gao Jianwu has more things, from schools to industrial planning and zoning, a package of things will fall on top of his head.

What's even more uncomfortable is that Gao Jianwu has to combine the future development, the current densely populated area, the future may not be a densely populated area, so the distribution of this piece is more considered.

Fortunately, Gao Jianwu did not infinitely push things into the long future, and did a good job in the base area first in accordance with the population resources, transportation location, and future industrial development plan.

As a result of the development of clothing, a large amount of grain was brought back from overseas, and of course these grains were not directly distributed to the people below, but large-scale infrastructure construction was carried out in the form of cash-for-work.

From water conservancy projects to school construction, from road traffic to factories, Gao Jianwu, who had a large amount of grain in his hands, was stunned to organize millions of people from various base areas to devote himself to the construction in full swing.

All kinds of construction sites can be seen everywhere in the base areas, there is food to take when you work, and you can cash in on the day of work, so straightforward stimulation, so that the farmers and friends of each construction site are full of energy, even if there is a lack of mechanical equipment in this era, many can only rely on manual labor, but the progress of this group of fiery farmers and friends is desperately sweating under the premise that it is advancing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Dams are constantly rising, water canals have begun to extend to thousands of acres of fertile land, and farmland and water conservancy infrastructure to solve the food problem are changing every day.

Faster than these basic projects, the construction of vocational training schools in various base areas, due to the serious lack of steel and concrete in this era, the new college is mainly bungalows, or 3 or 4 stories of low buildings, so that the construction site can be piled up at the same time and parallel construction, so that the construction speed is so fast that Gao Jianwu has no time to find a teacher, and the school stands up one by one.

"Minister Gao, we have built a vocational and technical college of light industry, a vocational college of electronic engineering, a vocational college of textile technology, a vocational college of construction technology, a vocational college of food industry technology, a vocational college of road traffic technology, a vocational college of shipping and transportation technology, a vocational college of aviation technology, a vocational college of railway transportation technology, a vocational college of civil affairs and administration, a vocational college of agriculture and forestry technology, a vocational college of chemical technology, a vocational college of metallurgical technology, a vocational college of mechanical and electrical technology, a vocational college of automobile industry, a vocational college of mining technology, More than 20 vocational training schools, including the Vocational College of Water Conservancy Technology, the Vocational College of Health Technology, and the Vocational College of Electric Power Technology, have completed the construction of school sites, and have the training scale of recruiting 3,000 to 5,000 students.

But with so many new faculties being established, our faculty can't keep up at all. Cao Honggang, the deputy director in charge of the education sector, had a dark face and went to Gao Jianwu to complain that he had almost been running around various school construction sites in the past few months, and the school was established, but under the banner of recruiting teachers to recruit teachers from all over the country, the teachers who were now in place were less than one-tenth of the teachers planned to be equipped.

"Lao Cao, you came just in time, drink saliva to moisten your throat first, I just want to discuss this matter with you, let's work it out together." When Gao Jianwu saw Cao Honggang, he hurriedly beckoned him to sit down, poured a glass of water, and let Cao Honggang take a breath first.

Cao Honggang took the cup and drank it honestly and unceremoniously, then put the cup on the table.

"Minister Gao, do you have any good ideas, tell me quickly, I really have no tricks. In fact, this time we have opened too many schools, even if the student-teacher ratio is 30 to 1, we recruit students in each school according to the scale of 3,000 people this time, and there must be 100 teachers to be equipped, these more than 20 schools, that is, more than 2,000 3,000 teachers are needed. Cao Honggang then reported.

Of course Gao Jianwu understood, he nodded, thinking that in this era, it is indeed impossible to have so many full-time teachers for vocational training, but this is not difficult for him.

"Lao Cao, you see that our schools have just been built, and it is impossible for students to do it in one step, so in the early stage, we will use a small number of full-time teachers as a supplement and a large number of part-time teachers as the main temporary transitional teacher program.

That is to say, we are now recruiting teachers to the school as full-time teachers, and we will dig out the remaining teachers from two aspects, one is to dig a group of experts and professors from the universities near the current college to serve as part-time teachers for homework, and the general professional courses and theoretical courses are equipped in this way;

On the other hand, it is to select a group of talents from the corresponding factories, hospitals, railways, water power, and construction enterprises to teach and train practical skills, and directly connect with the actual work to ensure that the students trained by our vocational colleges can seamlessly turn into skilled workers! Gao Jianwu concisely introduced his thoughts to Cao Honggang.

Don't say it, Lao Cao listened to Gao Jianwu's plan, and felt that it was really reliable.

At least for the time being, this is not an option, and for the time being, the school can be supported first.

"Minister Gao, I think you can give it a try, at least I feel that this method can be operated, as for the drawbacks in the middle, we will change it while trying, and there is no problem in thinking about it." Cao Honggang replied after thinking for a while.

"It's just that, how is the remuneration of these people determined? Is it still based on the salary of the full-time teacher here? ”

"The salary, I think there should be some differences from full-time teachers," Gao Jianwu thought for a while, "About two-thirds of the salary of full-time teachers I think can be set as the standard salary of different levels, and the other third is calculated according to the average teaching hours. ”

Gao Jianwu's method, for vocational colleges, reduces two-thirds of the salary burden, and also achieves the purpose of teaching, which is of course also a huge benefit for vocational colleges that are waiting to be built at this stage.

When Cao Honggang heard this, his eyes lit up, and this method seemed to be very good.

For professors or skilled workers who come to do part-time training, their gains are also good, which is equivalent to earning another job in addition to their own work, which is also a great thing for them.

What's more, even one-third of the teacher's class fee is really considerable in this era, you must know that the salary of university professors is now higher than that of senior management cadres such as Gao Jianwu.

Living a simpler life, I'm afraid that some professors who do a lot of part-time classes can support their families with this.

The two quickly came to an agreement, and the next step was to discuss how to implement the plan, which must be carried out with some control of the overall situation.

Fortunately, it is not a problem for Gao Jianwu or the brigade commander in this regard, he only needs to set the criteria for selecting professors and technical backbones of the factory. We just need to select part-time teachers according to this criterion.

Specific work, with this standard, can be directly promoted in various places. Rao is so, in order to compile this standard, Gao Jianwu also spent a lot of brain cells, and it took him and his subordinates to complete the first version of the selection standards and salary standards for part-time teachers in vocational colleges.

After this was made public, the principals and school affairs teams of vocational colleges in various places began to poach professors and factories and other technical backbones everywhere according to this standard, and at the same time, recruitment advertisements began to be widely publicized in various base areas.

Taking into account everyone's economic ability, the first batch of students recruit young people aged 16~25, and the accommodation is arranged by the school, after the graduation of this batch of 2-year students, they are assigned to various factories, hospitals or construction sites, etc., and deduct one-tenth of the salary income, and deduct 5 consecutive years to feed back to the school that trained him, so as to form a virtuous circle, so that the training college and the employer, and the students all get a win-win situation.

All of this is made clear in the admissions advertisement, and every student has to sign such a contract when they enter the school.

Because according to the current economic situation, Gao Jianwu has no way to support such a large-scale student training for free for a long time. Now this method is equivalent to installment payment, Gao Jianwu only needs to support the school's previous batches of students' accommodation expenses in advance, and when the students graduate and begin to feed the college, his advance payment can be slowly withdrawn.

Thinking that most of these students are also illiterate from rural areas, Gao Jianwu is ready to simplify the teaching of Chinese characters directly in these schools, improve their efficiency in learning cultural knowledge as soon as possible, and devote more time to learning practical skills.

It's just that the current vocational colleges are being built in different base areas, not only from the control of the brigade commander, in these base areas, will they agree with Gao Jianwu to promote simplified Chinese?

Ask for a commuter pass.
