Chapter 22 Teaching Materials
After dealing with the nuclear power plant in the past three months, the TU company under the control of Grandrent is sending people to do preliminary preparations such as surveying the terrain and site selection, and they are also very experienced, and they are going all out for this large order, which is not only the boss's order, but also related to the year-end bonus and equity dividends of all employees.
"The organization has given you the task of developing the next member in five years, and it seems that there has been no progress?" On this day, Jiang Minghong was having a routine conversation with Grandrent, pacing back and forth in the study, holding a satellite phone, and asked about the task that had been assigned a long time ago. This kind of thing needs to be kept extremely confidential, and he has never urged the other party, but it has recently reached the half-year deadline for routine inquiries.
"I have already circled three candidates, but their social relations are somewhat complicated, and further tests are needed before we can absorb them." Grandrent listened to Jiang Minghong's questioning and said with some embarrassment. It's not that he didn't have intentions, but the conditions he chose were too harsh, and there were very few suitable candidates, because to prevent them from divulging secrets, many people who met most of the conditions often had family involvement, and it was conceivable that after they enjoyed the longevity technology, they would definitely think of using it on their families, in that case, it would be uncontrollable, and the risk of leakage would be too great.
"It's right to be cautious," Jiang Minghong's face improved a lot after listening to the explanation, since he said so, then there was some reassurance, "You go ahead with this." In addition, I have read the income report sent by the foundation, and your management is very good, and the net profit has increased by 30% compared with the previous year, which I have credited to your contribution value. ”
If it weren't for the fear that it would be too noticeable to open just now, it would at least double the number of words, this sentence Grandrent did not say on the phone, for him, Jiang Minghong's method of combining grace and power still seemed too traceful and very tender. But it was good enough for the young man to realize this, at least he asked himself how proud he was at the same age.
"Financial investment is one of my specialties, and I have found that my thinking is more active and intuitive than when I was younger, and I believe that in the second half of the year, the return on investment can increase significantly." Grandrent said this not as a compliment, but as a real experience. In the course of several financial operations, he made judgments faster and more accurately than when he was at the peak of his forties, which made him have to admire the magic of biotechnology, made him feel that his original judgment was not wrong, and at the same time, his determination to follow to the end has also strengthened a lot. Of course, there is another very important reason for his firm determination, that is, in the past two years, Jiang Minghong has not requisitioned and demanded property from him for free because he has controlled his right to life, and it is basically within the scope of normal business cooperation. In Grandrent's eyes, this kind of behavior is judged to be a well-established and strict system in their organization, not a group of robbers or violent elements, or guys who have mastered advanced technology but do not know the height of the sky. This kind of business cooperation between them has a very high degree of trust, and in the business cooperation activities that ordinary companies need to negotiate for months or even years to reach the initial intention, it often only takes a few weeks for their subordinate companies to enter the substantive implementation stage.
Having an extremely committed and trustworthy ally in normal business is undoubtedly what many people expect, but cannot ask for. After all, most businessmen are based on the fundamental principle of profit, and will abandon each other at any time, as long as there are enough interests, even if they have been partners for many years.
Grandrent not only has a high business vision and decision-making ability, but also has brought together a large number of professionals in his many years of financial career to take care of various business affairs for him, so in the cooperation between the two sides, there is very little loss. Although the managers of his subordinate companies are often puzzled by the boss's strange orders, such as sometimes taking advantage of the other company's unfamiliarity with certain situations, the boss does not agree, and some of the signed contracts have loopholes and forbade them to take advantage of them. But after all, it is impossible for subordinates to go against the wishes of their employers, and they can only watch the opportunity slip away. However, there are many people who have the opposite view, and they think that this just reflects the vision of their boss, and they cannot take small profits from long-term partners.
"It's not surprising, as long as you can keep your sane mind all the time, I think you'll continue to enjoy it." When Jiang Minghong spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little proud. There is nothing more rewarding than the submission of an elite at the top of society, let alone the so-called upper class members, who are far worse than the status that Grandrent has.
"I think so. What you tell me, I will do my best to complete in the next two years. I think at that time, it was almost time to put an end to the PR campaign for them. Grandrent showed a confident tone, he naturally understood what Jiang Minghong said, but he didn't care about the kind of pride he showed, if he was still thirty years ago, he might still mind a little, but when he is old, most things have been seen very openly, although his body has regained its youth, but the emotions that are unique to young people are rarely reflected in him. Caring about these meaningless things and not bringing any substantial benefits, he will not do it anymore.
"Okay, that's all for this contact, I look forward to your success." After Jiang Minghong finished speaking, he hung up the phone, this satellite phone was provided by Grandrent a long time ago, according to him, it was directly transmitted through the three communication satellites he commissioned the European Space Agency to launch. This is not unusual, in order to control the global enterprise information at the same time, to allocate resources and manpower, etc., some monopoly giants have their own private satellites. The channel they use is not monitored by the U.S. government, but they try to avoid using sensitive words in order to keep it secret.
Hanging up the phone, Jiang Minghong leaned on the recliner and exhaled deeply, the entire business network has basically been on the right track, with the secret support of Grandrent, the annual commercial profits have been greatly improved, and dozens of hospitals that have been built in Africa have also begun to make normal profits, the process of self-production and self-sale has saved many links in the circulation of drugs, saving a lot of costs, so that even if the price is relatively low, you can also obtain high profits, basically do not have to worry about the lack of liquidity.
Taking the schedule on the table, Jiang Minghong glanced at it, and the afternoon activity was to inspect the Kingdom Kindergarten. This kindergarten mainly accepts the children of the upper class of the country, providing modern education for their next generation, and the expenses are still paid by themselves for the time being. Despite the king's approval, the ministers and chieftains were reluctant to leave their children in the hands of outsiders, and even on such free conditions, only a small number of the more enlightened people were willing to give their children a better education. In addition, there are other preferential conditions for these upper-class people, such as giving them free medical care, etc., which belong to the category of bribery, compared to their rigid minds, modern public relations methods, they are not at all able to resist. Just like the most stubborn Prince Koster, even though he has always been against him, but not long ago his son was seriously ill, and when all the witch doctors were called, and even the blessings of the high priest were ineffective, it was the king who ordered him to be sent to the hospital he opened, so that his condition was brought under control, and gradually began to improve.
In this case, some of them still have some brains, and they are ready to go abroad by the newly opened railway, although the foreign exchange required for the investigation is also provided by themselves. However, even if they have some knowledge, they will not be their opponents, and people who are a hundred times more shrewd than them will succumb to their faces, not to mention these guys who don't have much strength at all.
The doctor was writing textbooks for the upcoming school education, and he didn't know if the first draft had been completed, Jiang Minghong thought for a while, and finally got up and walked out of the study. His wife, Erla, rarely interfered with her actions, and never went where she shouldn't, and it seemed that the Doctor's vision was also very strong in this regard.
"If you look at it, this is a primary school textbook, which I have combined with the primary education textbooks of various countries in the world. The book is written in three languages: vernacular, Chinese, and English. I have standardized their local scripts and corrected a lot of them, and I really don't want to use these cumbersome and inaccurate pronunciations if it were not for the huge opposition that would arise from not adopting their native language. Xue Yunchu picked up a thick, freshly printed manuscript and handed him to Jiang Minghong, who had just come in. This is not his opinion that there is any discrimination in the language of this country, but that the longer a written language is developed, the more people use it, and the more you communicate with the outside world, the more perfect it can be, in contrast, there are only two languages in the world that best meet his standards, except for English, which is Chinese, and Chinese is more helpful for improving intelligence, this research result was found by Xue Ying in the internal database of that base, although they don't have much to say about it.
"This, this, it seems that the content of the textbook is too difficult and too much, I don't think even the textbook in our country can compare." Jiang Minghong felt a sinking when he received it in his hand, and he almost didn't hold it steady, so he hurriedly held it with both hands, looked at it for a while, and said hesitantly. Although he did not go to school for a few years, over the years, when he did some charitable things to gain fame, he often donated to many schools, and naturally some teachers mentioned some of this to him. The book is so broad in scope, with detailed discussions in the various branches of the natural and social sciences, that it doesn't look like it's intended for elementary school students.
Jiang Minghong had just read some of them roughly, and many of the contents could only be understood by junior high school students or even high school students, and there was a lot of knowledge that needed to be memorized.
"It's a little harder, but I don't expect them to be able to master it completely, as long as they master one-fifth to one-third, it's fine, and the rest is for children with extraordinary intelligence." Xue Yunchu explained that he is the only one who can do this in the compilation of teaching materials in this country, and the local awkward local language is not something that linguists can learn in a short period of time, not to mention that it is necessary to translate modern science into the past, and there are slight differences, which will cause many problems. Without a solid basic education, it is not possible to produce a sufficiently qualified labor force.
"Of course, there may be a lot of things that can't be taken care of, but these can only be corrected after the trial, and the future compilation will also require the participation of experts in various fields such as child psychologists, and now I can't take care of it for a while, you first submit it to the king for approval, I don't think he will dwell on this." Xue Yunchu thought for a while, he has tried his best to be optimal, including some basic principles such as visualization, conciseness, more examples than theories, etc., of course, when rendering culture and guiding thinking, a lot of subtle processing has been made. He is naturally very proficient in this technique.
"Okay," Jiang Minghong agreed, putting the manuscript in his briefcase, "I have to go to the kindergarten in the afternoon to inspect it, due to language problems, now we can only let the locals take care of these children, and the preschool teachers we hired with high salaries can only teach them to start using new things like numbers." ”
"These things are really cumbersome, and I opened a vocational training school before, which was originally intended to allow some local adults to master the operation of some ordinary machinery, so as to open up some employment paths for them. But what bothered me was that they had only learned how to use the common tools of our construction workers after a few months of study, and they are still amazed at the machines that used electricity. It seems that even after they graduate, they will be able to do very limited work. Jiang Minghong remembered one more thing and said with a frown.
"It's always hard for adults to educate, and that's why it takes 20 years for a country to change quickly, and that is to wait for the new generation to grow up." Xue Yunchu didn't think there was any trouble in this, in fact, he thought that these creatures with acquired consciousness were blessed enough, even if the backward nation, as long as it was a normal human being, the babies they were born with were not too much different from the babies born in modern society, as long as they had the same education, they could reach a similar level, so as to quickly change the overall quality of a country, which was based on the law of metabolism. Therefore, education is undoubtedly the foundation of a country, and it cannot be overstated.
Twenty years, it sounds like a long time, but you don't need to care about it too much, anyway, your life is still very long, Jiang Minghong thought, he thought of Grandrent after the operation, for that person, let him respect the role of the same technology like that, unless the effect is indeed very ideal.
The two talked for a while, Jiang Minghong remembered his arrangements for the afternoon, so he took a heavy briefcase and left, of course the manuscript needs to be printed in separate volumes, but he still repays the cheapest sympathy for the little guys who need to use such teaching materials in the future.
