The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 1089 Language Problems and Study Abroad Plans

Of course, what Marin wants to propose is not only population replacement and integration, but also education issues. And, that's the core. For example, in the Jutland peninsula, Marin asked the church to open a church school, enroll local children for free, and teach local Danish children to learn German. At the same time, those who want to open Danish schools are secretly suppressed.

However, most of the educated Danes were cleared out by Marin and let them go with the Danish King Hans. Therefore, few local literati are willing to open any Danish language schools. The most important thing is that the German schools run by churches don’t cost money, and you can’t compete with a fee-paying Danish school.

In addition, when promulgating official documents, Marin always issued them in German. However, considering that the locals do not understand German, missionaries who know both German and Danish are generally asked to explain it to the Danes. These missionaries, who knew both German and Danish, were mainly from Schleswig. This is an area where Germans and Danes live together, so missionaries often speak both languages. Otherwise, how to save (fool) these lost lambs?

After a few generations, more people have attended church German schools, and everyone will gradually get used to using German. Danish then becomes a dialect. Although it exists, it has degenerated into the so-called "local dialect". If everyone recognizes the mainstream culture, there will be no rebellion.

Marin originally planned to suggest that Edward train a group of missionaries who could speak both English and Scots, and to promote English church schools in Scotland. However, after thinking about it, he still gave up.

why? Because even if he made a suggestion, Edward would not implement it. Mainly, Edward has no money to promote free English education throughout Scotland. You know, education requires investment. Edward is not as rich as Marin, and this suggestion is tantamount to saying nothing.

Of course, Marin still proposed a cut version of the proposal-he suggested that Edward be allowed to promote English learning in the churches of Scotland. The specific method is to allow young Scottish priests to go to Oxford University and Cambridge University in England at public expense to study English. And after they return to China, they also have the obligation to teach local children English...

Right now, apart from the London University of Political Science and Law, which Marin suggested before Edward, which is dedicated to cultivating administrative talents, the only two universities in the UK before—Oxford University and Cambridge University—are actually themed on theology, mixed with some philosophy. , managerial and legal majors.

Edward can ask the Church of England to ask for alms, let them sponsor young Scottish priests to study theology at Oxford University and Cambridge University, exempt admission, teach them to learn British culture, and win them over to become the spokesperson of the United Kingdom...

This kind of method is also very common in later generations. For example, many liberal arts students who went to study in the United States were deeply influenced by the United States. Then, after returning to the country, I felt uncomfortable in various ways, and felt that everything in the motherland was not good, and all the beautiful things in the old country were all the truth...

therefore,

In his previous life, Marin had two views on international students who had studied in the United States—science and engineering are fine, they are all studying technology. As for liberal arts, it's hard to say. Perhaps, after studying abroad for a few years, the one who came back was not a person who was willing to help the motherland become stronger, but a person who detested the motherland in every possible way. He speaks English a lot, and when others think differently from him, he thinks that others are backward and barbaric...Of course, this is not a common phenomenon, but there are indeed quite a few...

What's more, American liberal arts education is actually not that scary. According to seniors who have studied in the United States, in the United States, except for the fairness of science majors, first-class universities such as Harvard and Penn Wharton School of Business mainly focus on liberal arts, and most of the students who go to study are second-rate. Mainly the children of the rich and powerful, they don't go to school, but to expand their connections. The reason why they are said to be second-rate students is that their talents are not the best. However, among the children of the powerful and the rich, they are the top. Therefore, it can barely be regarded as second-rate.

These people's talents are not bad, coupled with their strong backgrounds, combined with a top diploma such as Harvard, their future road will be very smooth. So, it's not that Harvard and other famous schools are prone to produce presidents and other political figures, but that they have a very high starting point before entering. He has a background, an IQ, and his classmates are a group of future elites with the same background. Therefore, the chances of a president and other dignitaries are naturally high.

Even, many wealthy families are often happy to donate money to Harvard and become patrons. why? Because with such an identity, even if his son is a scumbag, as long as he donates enough money, he can still go to Harvard. Only children from poor families need to go to the exam and enter the school stupidly.

Just like many children of the top richest people in China in later generations, they all went to world famous schools. But if you have the ability to check carefully, you will find that their fathers are important patrons of the universities they attended. Universities abroad accept donations and are happy to offer admission to the children of those sponsors. In other words, it is to send a diploma. So, don't think that those wealthy children who have attended famous foreign schools are really awesome. Only those who study abroad at public expense and enter those world-renowned schools by relying on hard exams are the true academic masters. And many children from wealthy families enter the world's famous schools, in fact, they get in through donations.

This is a routine in Western countries-those universities will not sell admission quotas at a clearly marked price, but if you donate tens of millions, you can get the title of "a good person who is enthusiastic about education"...well, your son is a fool, and he can Going to college...

In the years before Marin traveled, there were many rich Chinese who donated money to Harvard and other world famous schools. How much money do they have? This is actually a private PY transaction. With the status of a donor, your children will be able to enter a prestigious school...

However, those second generations who are ignorant will definitely not learn those complicated science and engineering majors, mainly because they are too brain-intensive, and they really can't do it. Therefore, generally speaking, this kind of wealthy children who donate money to enroll in school often study liberal arts majors. What you really want to study is science and engineering, and you are a wealthy kid from a school like Stanford or Caltech, but you are really a top student...

...

Strictly speaking, it is fairest for our domestic college entrance examination to go to university. But this is of no use, because the wealthy children of Huaqing University have already found another way to go to a famous foreign school because they can't get into Huaqing University. In the end, your academic qualifications are better than yours... Then, everyone's original situation, the situation remains the same... Of course, those true academic masters can also improve their situation. At least, you can mix the poor into the middle class through natural IQ...

What needs to be pointed out is that, apart from the true academic masters, those who go to world-renowned schools are wealthy. It’s not considered a rich family, it’s just that the family has a little money, and they can’t afford to donate to Harvard and other top schools, so they have to go to a pheasant university abroad to fool the Chinese people... But this won’t work, because, with the rise of the Internet age, foreign pheasant universities can’t fool the people. people...

Therefore, don't think that those who have studied abroad and attended prestigious schools are true academic masters. If someone who studied at Huaqing University or Peking University with a bachelor degree in China, and only went abroad after studying for a master's degree or Ph.D., then he is indeed a top student. And if you go abroad to go to a prestigious school as an undergraduate, it's still a liberal arts... well, it's hard to say...

Of course, it doesn't mean that those who go to famous universities abroad as undergraduates must donate. After all, giants also like to compare. Your son went to Oxford? No, I have to send my son to Harvard... Then, it became popular in this circle to do it like this, and it doesn't mean that those who donate to prestigious schools must be poor students. Perhaps, they themselves have the strength to be admitted to an ordinary undergraduate degree in China, but if they take an ordinary undergraduate degree in China, they will be laughed at in the circle. Therefore, you must be sent to a prestigious foreign school... Then, it will be difficult for you to tell who is a talent and who is a scumbag among those wealthy children... And I, the poor, always speculate maliciously, thinking that they are all A scumbag bought it... After all, it's a hatred of the rich...

...

After waking up from the memory of the previous life, Marin and Edward made a total calculation and found that it was actually not much cost to recruit young Scottish priests to Oxford and Cambridge without the test. Because Scotland only has a population of 500,000, and the total number of priests is at most several thousand. As for the young priests, there could be two or three thousand people, but it is estimated that there are only a thousand. For a team of international students of this size, the Church of England must be able to afford the expenses.

Moreover, after these people have completed their studies, they will be of great use in the future. Right now, Edward has no money to build an English school in Scotland, but Marin has it. As long as he takes over England and Scotland, he can learn from Denmark's free admission to English church schools. Like the Jutland side, after a few generations, young people in Scotland will be able to speak fluent English, and their sense of identity with the UK will greatly increase...
