Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 1657 School Comparison

I didn't expect the old boy to react so quickly, after all, it was a bit sarcastic just now. Why did he change so quickly? It seems that the other party is not simple; at least in this regard, he is better than himself. Bao Shoufang asked himself that he still couldn't do it so freely.

The other party mentioned strengthening cooperation in the computer field and was very interested in this. The University of Copenhagen is not only the highest institution in Denmark; it is also a member of the 4EU+ Alliance, the International Alliance of Research Universities, the Alliance of European Research Universities, the Alliance of European Capital Universities, and the European University Association. The University of Copenhagen ranks fourth in Europe in terms of research funding, behind the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford and ETH Zurich.

It can be said that it occupies a pivotal position in European academic circles. I just saw the school's eagle and school motto, and I feel that Yulin Institute of Technology still has a lot of work to do, and it may take advantage of emerging disciplines in a short period of time. But for long-term development, you must have your own system and be recognized by other universities.

It doesn't mean that you can't do it behind closed doors, but it's not that easy to succeed. Especially for students' perspective, it does not have any benefit. A good university must not only have academic achievements, but also learn to be tolerant. As the country with the highest proportion of Nobel Prize winners, Denmark definitely has a lot to offer.

In addition, mathematics, physics, astronomy, and chemistry are the school's traditional strong departments; coupled with the synchrotron radiation facility MAX IV jointly hosted by the University of Copenhagen and Lund University in Sweden, and the European Spallation Neutron Source project, it is bound to promote the strength of various disciplines increase.

Geology and earth sciences are affiliated with the powerful IGN; the Geogenetics Center of the Natural History Museum is also closely connected with it - this is an interdisciplinary center composed mainly of geneticists and geologists with rich research content : From studying the migration of European Ice Age mammoths to tracing the footprints of the earliest humans in Australia; from analyzing Greenland’s 20-ton meteorite to understanding early climate change and predicting its impact on the future; from detecting various from the genetic background of similar diseases to exploring the impact of polygyny on the survival of green sea turtles.

Whether admitted or not, these subjects are much better than Yulin Institute of Technology. The other party just mentioned that if the two sides can have a good exchange of ideas in the field of computer science, then naturally other subjects cannot be left behind. But this is all for later and can be discussed later.

The top priority is the speech. As a foreign academician of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences, I cannot be criticized.

When they learned that Bao Zixuan was coming to school to give a speech, many students were eagerly looking forward to it; as the most legendary figure in the world, it was not easy to meet him. In the end, it was discovered that there were too many people, and there was no place in the school that could accommodate so many people; they could only be placed on the playground.

Although Denmark is very safe, the military and police took the initiative collectively just in case. The Crown Prince was also present, and if Bao Zixuan had a problem in Denmark, he would not be able to explain it clearly.

In fact, no one takes security issues more seriously than Mr. Bao. Thinking about it, living is really tiring, at least not so free anymore. I wear a body armor every day when I go out, just to deal with emergencies. After all, he has offended too many people, many people in the world want his life, and he has to guard against many things.

There are more than 20,000 students at the University of Copenhagen, and the number of people coming here is definitely much higher. Even many college students from other surrounding schools come to participate in the activities, which shows its popularity.

As the principal, Bodin saw such a scene and could only temporarily act as the host. The crowd on the playground felt for the first time that so many people could be accommodated here.

The principal said with a slight smile: "Hello, classmates! I am Bodin, and I am very happy that I can meet so many classmates at once. It seems that I am not very qualified as a principal, and of course I may not be charming enough. .”

"You all came here today just to see the handsome young men, so I won't waste too much time; I would like to invite Mr. Bao Zixuan, a foreign academician of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences."

After saying that, he walked down from the podium naturally. At present, it is better to leave the situation to Bao Zixuan directly. If it takes too long, problems can easily arise. After all, there were too many students coming, so it was normal for a stampede to occur.

With the appearance of Bao Zixuan, there was warm applause. Maybe this is the charm, ordinary people will never achieve such popularity.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Hello, everyone! I am very happy to meet you in this university that has been established for more than 500 years."

I originally thought that the other party could speak English, so I specially prepared a translator for this purpose. Unexpectedly, it was all in Danish, which directly put the translator out of work; but this is good news for the students on site; at least they will hear the truest intention.

There was another round of applause, perhaps because of routine, perhaps because he was conquered by the words of the richest man Bao.

Bao Zixuan continued: "Actually, before I came to the University of Copenhagen, I felt that there was nothing great here; at least in terms of international reputation, it is worse than many schools. In addition, I graduated from Oxford and MIT, and deep down I felt The University of Copenhagen is not as good as my two alma maters."

"But after entering, I discovered that a good university is not only reflected in its reputation; it should also be judged by how much it has contributed to society and what meaningful things it has done for the country and people. Any so-called academic rankings are nonsense; It doesn’t represent anything at all. At least the so-called international rankings are very unfair to the University of Copenhagen.”

"In October 1728, a fire broke out in Copenhagen that lasted for four days. Nearly 30% of the city's buildings were burned down and 20% of the city's population became homeless. The fire also destroyed the Copenhagen University Library and burned nearly 40,000 books. A large number of them are rare and unique books that have survived from the Middle Ages; the observation equipment and observation records of the University of Copenhagen Observatory were also burned."

"Although the school was not affected by the Battle of Copenhagen in 1801, the Geological Museum was destroyed in the battle between Britain and Denmark in 1807, when the British fleet bombarded the city of Copenhagen. More than half of the ancient buildings of the University of Copenhagen were destroyed in this battle. Destroyed.”

“In 1836, the new main university building was completed. Many affiliated institutions of the University of Copenhagen, including libraries, zoological museums, geological museums, botanical gardens and greenhouses, etc. were established during this period. In the 20th century, the University of Copenhagen Development shifted to the north of the city of Copenhagen, where a new university hospital, a new library, a center for theoretical physics, and a center for natural sciences were established.”

“It can be said that this is an ill-fated university, and it is even closely linked to the fate of the entire city and country. But at the same time, it is also a university that has never given up hope. Neither fire nor war can destroy this university’s belief in running a school. "

"I just graduated from MIT and founded Yulin Institute of Technology when I returned to Hong Kong. I used to think that the school was great. At least the building facilities and supporting services on campus were definitely world-class. In order to increase the competitiveness of the school, more They spend a lot of money to recruit all kinds of talents. Although it has some effects, at least its reputation around the world is definitely stronger than that of the University of Copenhagen."

"But our academic achievements can really exceed those here; I can definitely answer that there is still a long way to go. At least in terms of inheritance, there is no comparison between us and here. The University of Hagen has been able to stand for 500 years without falling. Naturally It has the meaning and value of existence. But to be honest, I really don’t have confidence that Yulin Institute of Technology can exist for 500 years.”

"The most I can guarantee is my lifetime, and Yulin Institute of Technology may be able to exist. But I don't have the ability to borrow another 500 years from God, and God may not agree."

After finishing speaking, everyone laughed. No one thought that the world's richest man had such a humorous side.

At the same time, I didn’t expect that Bao Zixuan knew so much about the history of the University of Copenhagen that he could even come up with all kinds of data and time points at the drop of a hat. As a student of the school, of course I know what the University of Copenhagen has experienced. It’s just that it hasn’t arrived yet, and one day it will be revealed by outsiders. It made me hate the British very deeply.

The burning of the city may have nothing to do with them, but the bombardment of the university is absolutely unforgivable. The British are a group of barbarians who claim to be gentlemen, and no noble will take the initiative to attack a school. Not to mention nobles, even people with a little bit of conscience would not be able to do such ridiculous things.
