Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Tian Shuyuan said: "In fact, we can think about it the other way around, maybe there is still some hope."

"The other way around?" Zhang Qianxiu immediately reacted. Tian Shuyuan meant to invite foreign professors and experts back to teach.

I think about it, it seems that there is no problem, but when I think about it carefully, it is no less difficult than sending someone to study abroad.

Which universities are Zhang Qianxiu sending people out to study? Universities such as Oxford, Harvard, Stanford, Yale, and Cambridge.

Why are these universities great? Educational resources are good, with the world's top teachers from all walks of life, and they have good benefits to retain these teachers.

These teachers are not only teaching in schools, they also have scientific research. These universities can provide very good research places and research equipment. When many teachers choose schools, they not only look at their income, but also look at the school. What kind of scientific research resources are obtained, just like Yuan Pengchi, why is he willing to go to Zhang Qianxiu? Because Zhang Qianxiu gave research funding!

The same goes for top teachers in other schools. Welfare is one aspect. They also need scientific research resources.

However, China simply cannot provide good research venues and resources. It is impossible to retain top professors by relying solely on high welfare.

Zhang Qianxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Professor Tian, ​​National Tsing Hua University and Beijing University, do you have an advantage over me?"

In his last life, Zhang Qianxiu saw a piece of research funding for foreign universities. The world's first-class universities invested roughly 1 billion yuan in research funding a year.

Zhang Qianxiu doesn't know how much research and development funds these universities have now. Even if it shrinks ten times, it still costs 100 million meters, which is four to five billion Chinese yuan!

Now there are not many people in the country with a worth of over 100 million yuan. To put it bluntly, the money Zhang Qianxiu currently has is enough for him to rank in the top 50 in the country.

In 1992, Mou Zhongzhi claimed to have 2 billion, and he was called the richest man in the Mainland.

Around 2000, the total assets of the richest man in the country did not exceed 10 billion, basically around 8 billion.

In 2001, the richest man was only 8.5 billion, and his total assets ranked the 100 million 500 million.

By 2020, the wealth of the richest man is more than 430 billion, and the 100th is 33.5 billion.

Zhang Qianxiu doesn't know how rich the country is now, but it is estimated that it will not exceed 2 billion.

Of course, there are some people whose wealth cannot be calculated, such as those with official backgrounds. Such people are not easy to calculate at all, and no one dares to calculate.

But in the current domestic economic situation, it is simply a fantasy to pay hundreds of millions of Chinese yuan every year.

Tian Shuyuan naturally knew the degree of suffering in the process, and said: "Mr. Zhang, this is the reality. If it is easy to do, someone will do it long ago."

Zhang Qianxiu knew that what Tian Shuyuan said was not wrong: "Professor Tian, ​​to be honest, before I came to Beijing, I was full of ambitions, and I felt that what I wanted to do would definitely come in handy."

"After I came, I found that I thought things too simple."

Tian Shuyuan said: "If there are more people like Mr. Zhang, then our country's education and scientific research will definitely usher in a big explosion!"

Zhang Qianxiu said modestly: "Professor Tian has passed the award."

When the two were chatting, someone from the education department came, a man and a woman, both in their 40s or 50s.

Tian Shuyuan gave Zhang Qianxiu an introduction. One of them was specifically in charge of studying abroad, called Hu Xueyi; the other was of a higher level and was the second in command of the education department called Xie Donggang.

The two parties greeted each other and said a few polite words. Xie Donggang said: "Mr. Zhang, we heard that you want to set up a fund to send people to study abroad, and the scale of this fund is not small. There are 20 million in the early stage. Long-term investment?"

Zhang Qianxiu said: "I have this plan, but there are many difficulties in it. I don't know how to do it."

Hu Xueyi said, "Mr. Zhang, I didn't pour your cold water. This is simply not feasible."

"The country is also vigorously supporting and spending our talents to study abroad, but the results achieved now are relatively limited, at least not meeting our expectations."

"There are too many people going out and not coming back. This has caused a lot of brain drain in our country."

"This is the case for people sent out by the country, not to mention, how much it costs to send out to study, even if you send it out, a hundred people will return less than ten, and more than ninety people will be lost, which is not worthwhile at all. The cost is too high."

"It's not just the high cost of money spent, but the cost of losing talent is also too high."

"Our domestic talents are not enough. I heard from Professor Tian that the people you want to send out are basically concentrated in the areas needed for chips. This will cause our country's shortage of talents in this area."

Although Hu Xueyi's words are not sound, they are facts.

Zhang Qianxiu said: "I only have this idea now, and I still need to discuss the details. Since I want to send people to study abroad, my purpose is to cultivate more and more high-end talents for the country, right?"

Hu Xueyi saw that Zhang Qianxiu spoke neither humble nor overbearing, and indeed, as Zhang Qianxiu said, his starting point was good.

Hu Xueyi's tone eased and said, "Mr. Zhang, your idea is actually good, but it is not feasible."

"Another problem is that in the fields you need, the number of undergraduate graduates each year in our country is not many."

"It's like the National Taiwan University. There are only tens of hundreds of students related to integrated circuits, and the scope is expanded. There is a little relevance, but there are only more than 200.

"You can't send out all the top 20 colleges and universities in our country, and all the recent graduates related to chips!"

"If you send thousands of people out this year, for five consecutive years, there will be a five-year vacuum for talents in related fields in our country. The talents cultivated by other schools are limited and cannot make up for this deficiency."

"Our country has relatively few talents in the field of integrated circuits, and the development is relatively slow. If you send it like this, our entire industry may be biased."

Xie Donggang said: "Mr. Zhang, Director Hu is a bit alarmist, but it is not completely unreasonable."

"Thousands of high-quality students were all sent out in this way, not to mention how many can come back, even if there are those who can come back, they will all work in your company. Then there are basically no talents available for other companies in the integrated circuit industry in our country. ."

"Mr. Zhang, you are making a chip. I don't know much about the chip, but I probably know some of it. It's just one type of integrated circuit. Even chips can be divided into many kinds of chips."

"Our country can't compensate all other chip industries and all integrated circuits for the development of computer chips, don't you think?"

"After our research and consideration, we feel that if you send people out, it is better to invite the professor back."

"Put these professors in various colleges and universities, and then you can give some subsidies to all the schools. These schools will expand the source of enrollment and cultivate talents in the fields you need every year. You can sign some contracts and the like, and go to your company to work after graduation ."

"In this way, you can take care of Mr. Zhang's employment plan, and also guarantee the employment problem of our country's integrated circuit industry."

When Zhang Qianxiu heard this, he couldn't help but wonder if it was because they were deliberately tossing it out, or they wanted to give money to major colleges and universities.

Now it is not a small amount to give each university one or two million. The school is still very happy to let the school expand the number of students.

However, this idea only passed by in a flash. There are only so many college students in China, and there are definitely not many in the field of integrated circuits, especially in every school.

Xie Dong just took out a document and handed it to Zhang Qianxiu: "Mr. Zhang, look at these documents, our talents are not enough."

Zhang Qianxiu took it. This is a statistical table of students enrolled in universities every year.

In 1985, 1.76 million people applied for university entrance exams, and 620,000 people were admitted. In this year, only a thousand people were studying integrated circuits. Integrated circuits are not bad. The chip field is an unpopular one in China, because there is no such thing. What related work, only a few national research institutes are tossing.

In 1986, 1.91 million applied for the examination and 570,000 were admitted.

In 1987, 2.28 million applied for examinations and 620,000 were admitted.

In 1988, 2.72 million people applied for the exam and 670,000 were admitted.

In 1989, 2.66 million people applied for the exam and 400,000 people were admitted.

By 1990, 600,000 people had been admitted.

The number of enrollment seems to be large, but in fact, there are also many majors.

my country is generally divided into twelve categories, philosophy, economics, law, education, literature, history, science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, management, and art.

Under these twelve categories, there are eighty to ninety subcategories such as economics, including economics, finance, and finance. Among them, finance is divided into financial engineering, insurance, actuarial, and investment. and many more.

There are more than 600 small categories. On average, one major is about 1,000 students. Some are more popular, and there are naturally more students, and some schools have no integrated circuit majors at all.

In the end, it can be counted that at present, there are no more than 10,000 talents in the chip field in our country, and no more than 50,000 talents in the integrated circuit field.

These people may not have engaged in their professional counterparts in the end, because there are no job opportunities in domestic chips; the integrated circuits are better, at least there are TV sets, radios, and tape recorders.

Zhang Qianxiu's heart is cold when he sees these data.

In such a situation, how do you deal with chips? Just rely on a few experts to bring dozens or hundreds of people to study? How can it be compared to a team of thousands or even tens of thousands of people?

What's ridiculous is that even if all the talents in this field in the country are brought together, there may not be more people in this field. They have more professional talents, because they have the most advanced technology and the latest scientific research data, and we have nothing.

Even if Zhang Qianxiu wants to send people out to study, there will not be so many students. Xie Donggang and Hu Xueyi are right, unless he sends out all the students in related fields every year.

But in that case, will the domestic TV industry still develop? These industries all need integrated circuit talents. TV and other industries need to recruit people for expansion. Now there are just enough people in the market, or even lack them. When companies recruit people, no new talents will enter the market. Talents, some companies that are not profitable will not be able to offer high wages, talents will be exhausted, and factories will have to wait to close down.

Even if Zhang Qianxiu wants to continue sending a large number of people to study abroad, it is estimated that the country will slap him at the beginning. He doesn't care about the life and death of other integrated circuit industries in China, the country cares! The country will not allow Zhang Qianxiu to toss like this.

Zhang Qianxiu suddenly felt a sense of frustration, but he was not reconciled at the same time. He was defeated by the domestic reality before it even started?
