Reborn multinational giant

Fang Zhe saw Zuo Ruichao's sister's ex-boyfriend's restraint in his eyes.

Nowadays, let alone Zuo Ruichao, who is only two or three years older than Fang Zhe, even if many people are one or two rounds older than Fang Zhe, they will be a little bit cautious and uncomfortable when they see Fang Zhe. This may be due to differences in achievements and status The resulting mentality gap between people.

"The last time I saw you was more than three years ago. I remember that when I went to Huaqing to find you, you also invited me to eat a bowl of red oil and hand-made noodles!" Fang Zhe said of the first time he and Zuo Ruichao met. The scene, time flies, whether it is his first meeting with Zuo Ruichao or his rebirth, it has been more than three years.

Speaking of the past, the relationship between the two has obviously gotten closer. Zuo Ruichao also slowly relaxes. From the time when the two met, to the different fate of the two people, the past of him and his sister Fang Ying, and now he The experience of studying in Switzerland has become the content of the conversation between the two.

Gradually, the content of the two people's conversations talked about the differences in the educational environment at home and abroad. Zuo Ruichao said with some emotion:

"After I went abroad, I really felt the gap in the education environment at home and abroad, not only the gap between the teachers and scientific research conditions, but also the academic atmosphere, the direction of talent training and many other aspects. Our current domestic education model What we cultivate is knowledge-based, skill-based, and application-oriented talents, while those cultivated abroad are creative and inventive talents!"

"Qian Xuesen's question?" Fang Zhe responded.

"Yes, it's the famous question of Qian Xuesen!" Zuo Ruichao glanced at Fang Zhe in surprise. He didn't expect that Fang Zhe, a big capitalist who was busy making money all day, would even know this.

Qian Xuesen’s question was a question asked by the famous Chinese scientist Qian Xuesen several years ago when the then prime minister visited him: “Why don’t our schools always produce outstanding talents?”

The so-called outstanding talents are top talents. They are top talents who have made outstanding contributions in a certain industry or field and enjoy a high reputation all over the world.

Looking at such talents in China, most of them are senior citizens, who have been famous for decades, but the younger generations of latecomers rarely have such top and outstanding people!

Although the reasons for this phenomenon are complicated, one of the most critical points is education!

As Zuo Ruichao said, the current domestic education model is to screen elites layer by layer and cultivate application-oriented talents, while the foreign education model is to teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and strive to let everyone play their talents and cultivate creative talents!

The two education systems have their own advantages and disadvantages. The former has cultivated a large number of elites and made outstanding contributions to the development of the motherland in recent decades, but the disadvantage is that the waves are rushing to the sand, and the talents of many people are buried in the pile of textbooks. , It is very difficult to have outstanding top talents.

After hundreds of years of baptism, the latter has made great contributions to the development and progress of human civilization, from Newton to Einstein to a famous scientist, and one of the drawbacks of this same education model is , Maybe a British junior high school graduate can't compare with domestic elementary school students in mathematics calculation ability!

Although it is not possible to generalize which is better and which is worse, it is undeniable that when the times have developed to today, when most domestic industries have begun to transform from low-value-added mid- and low-end industries to high-end industries, the number of people in the past has become more powerful. It doesn't come in handy. Instead, in many industries and fields, outstanding top talents are needed to overcome difficulties. Competition in many fields has become a battle for wisdom.

As a result, since the reform and opening up, various national projects such as the 985, 211, 863, and Thousand Talents Program have emerged to cultivate and attract top talents, but it is still difficult to change the scarcity of top talents in China.

More than a month ago, Fang Zhe visited and visited Tesla and SpaceX, founded by Musk, when he was on a business trip to the United States. During that time, Fang Zhe had a deeper understanding of the gap between domestic and foreign frontier technology. The gap in technology is only the surface, and the gap in talent is the root cause.

Therefore, since then, Fang Zhe has been born after returning to China to establish a foundation dedicated to improving this status quo, and this is the main reason why he specially entertained Zuo Ruichao today.

"Actually, I am looking for you today. I mainly want to ask you what else I can do to help you when studying abroad. Before, my sister...now, you also know!"

Fang Zhe said half of his words and did not continue. Fang Zhe never asked why Zuo Ruichao broke up with his sister Fang Ying. Now they are both adults. If Fang Zhe intervened, it would be unsightly. I also deliberately matched the two of them, which is a little funny and naive to think about now!

"No, no, no, it's all very good!" Zuo Ruichao quickly waved his hand and refused. The psychological barrier of accepting the "brother-in-law" to study abroad at the beginning made him feel uncomfortable and entangled for a long time. I think he was also a two-seven-eight at the time. The good-year-old young man is also a high-achieving student of Huaqing University. Even if his family's conditions are average, he can't be guilty of receiving assistance from others to study abroad. His relationship with Fang Ying and Fang Zhe's identity and achievements make him extremely embarrassed.

However, after Fang Ying's persuasion and Fang Zhe's phone call, he accepted Fang Zhe's funding.

Zuo Ruichao still remembers that on the night more than a year ago, Fang Zhe called him several questions: "Do you want to study abroad? Why do you want to study abroad? Do you think your desire to go is important, or do you The face and self-esteem lost because of accepting my funding is important?"

Zuo Ruichao thought about three questions all night, and later he figured it out. Going abroad to pursue higher academic and scientific beliefs is more important than his so-called face and self-esteem, because he knows that if he stays in China , It is difficult to achieve higher achievements in the field of biological sciences, and instead, like many other students, they will run around for life, to buy a house and buy milk powder!

Zuo Ruichao also remembered that when he answered the call after he agreed to accept Fang Zhe’s funding, Fang Zhe said: “If you really want to go further on the path of a scientist, I don’t want you to spend your time in Switzerland. Wasting on serving dishes, washing dishes and feeding mice, the card I gave you is enough for you to live in Switzerland for ten years.

I hope that when you return to China in the future, you will have achieved something in the field of biological sciences. Even if you have achieved nothing, I hope that you will still maintain your enthusiasm and passion for biological sciences. Even if you never plan to return to China, I hope You contribute to all mankind in the field of science.

You are a scientist, and I am destined to be just a businessman who cannot become a scientist!"

The mystery of Fang Zhe’s rebirth gave him a greater awe and enthusiasm for science, but Fang Zhe also knew that with his mentality and talent that had a headache when he saw textbooks, he was more suitable to be a businessman and a funding and training scientist. capitalist!

Just when Zuo Ruichao was lost in thought, Fang Zhe suddenly said:

"I decided to set up a foundation dedicated to funding you who are shining in the field of basic subjects. The name is the Himalaya Foundation!

Everyone admires the majesty of Mount Everest, but forgets that it is because of the majestic heritage of the Himalayas that Mount Everest can become the highest peak in the world!

Ten of the 14 highest peaks in the world are in the Himalayas. I hope that the Himalayas in the future can also cultivate a group of the most outstanding talents for our country and all mankind, just like the Himalayas!"
