It is common to find Lao Tzu if it is difficult to find him, and the prince is no exception.
It is a pity that William is currently in the inspection period. A telegram for help can indeed solve most of the problems, but it also means that his assessment has failed.
If you want to be a qualified monarch, you must first have the ability to deal with difficulties. Asking for help obviously cannot prove your ability.
Although the development of Nanyang region is important, in the eyes of Franz, it is obviously not as good as cultivating a responsible son.
As for the colonies, slow economic development is better. On the contrary, the economy is advancing by leaps and bounds, and then there is no need to worry about the tail end.
After all, the biggest feature of the colonial system under the Shinra model is that it is particularly capable of fighting. With money and an industrial system, it is difficult to guarantee that ambition will not be born.
In order to prevent this from happening, from the beginning, the development direction of the colonies under the Shinra Group was planned by the Vienna government.
The first is to develop economical agriculture and mining, and to provide domestic industrial raw materials; the second is to develop light industry.
As for heavy industry and emerging technology industries, it is completely blank. What is lacking is to source from domestic sources. There is no need to repeat development and waste resources.
In fact, there is no need for special restrictions. Without domestic support, with the colony’s talent pool, the technology industry cannot be transferred at all.
With the formulation of the overseas state strategy, the Vienna government's restrictions on the colonies have also been reduced a lot, especially after the prince succeeded as the governor, he almost completely let go.
Unfortunately, the times have changed. The second industrial revolution has come to an end, and the threshold of industrialization has been raised.
Every time he thought of this, William envied his brother who went to Austrian Central America. Although there is also a lack of talents, you can always dig up by lifting a hoe.
With the identity of the prince, coupled with the prestigious name of Shinra, it is still very attractive to the talents of American countries.
In many cases, you don't even have to pay the actual price, and you can fool a large group of people to come and work directly by relying on a blank check.
Although the abilities of these people are uneven, and their professionalism is far behind that of the local Shinra, they are still "top talents" in the colonies.
Relying on digging the foot of the wall, in just a few years, Austrian Central America has already laid the foundation for industrialization.
In contrast, the Austro-Southern Asians are much harder. William wanted to dig the foot of the wall, but there was really no place to hoe!
Throughout Asia, there is no industrialized country, including Japan and the Far Eastern Empire, which have just taken the steps of industrialization, and there is a severe shortage of talents.
Originally, William had high hopes for Lanfang Autonomous Province, thinking that the economy here is good and there should be a good talent pool.
In fact, the same is true. With the identity of the prince, William was immediately praised after arriving in Lanfang.
After all, there is no dispute between Shenluo and the royal family, and the disputes within the royal family are very small. As a prince, he is either a prince, or he returns to the country to hold an important position.
Regardless of that situation, the future is bright. Fleeing to the past, there is no risk at all.
Although decades have passed, the crisis consciousness of the Nanyang Chinese has not disappeared. The thighs that were delivered to the door naturally leaned up.
There was one large local family, and they all sent direct children to work under William's command, which greatly enriched the team.
They are indeed talents, but unfortunately all of them went wrong. If you are looking for economic talents and bureaucrats, you will be able to find suitable people from the grassroots to the top.
If you want to play industrialization, you don't have to count on it. In this world where literature is more important than science and engineering, Lanfang’s capitalists have to hire technicians from Shenluo heavily.
Of course, it is not that there are no technical talents at all, at least there are workers in basic industries.
Infrastructure projects such as roads and water conservancy can still be carried out with the local talent pool.
Therefore, since his succession as Governor of Nanyang, William's projects have basically revolved around infrastructure such as roads and water conservancy.
You don't need to go to Zhang Luo personally. To start a project, as long as you appoint a few children of a large family to be responsible, craftsmen will be sent to you immediately.
After learning with Franz, William never cared about how the craftsman came, he just looked at the result.
It is not enough to build a university, unless he wants to build a liberal arts college or a military academy, otherwise the teachers will definitely not be available.
...
After hesitating for a while, Rodriguez replied cautiously: "His Royal Highness, except Professor Drake who accepted your invitation, everyone else chose to refuse, but they recommended their students."
Facts have once again proved that the ideal thing belongs to a few people. As the prince William, he personally wrote invitations, but only one professor was invited.
Recommending one's own students, in a sense, is simply to give William the prince's face.
You know, William's invitation letter is not spam. He didn't ask himself to be boring about the existence of success and fame, and he invited newcomers who needed opportunities in the professional field.
It is a pity that only a few people really devote their lives to education and scientific research, most of them are ordinary people.
Those who can become professors are not young anymore. It is too embarrassing for those who drag their families to leave the comfort zone of the mainland and go to overseas colonies to work hard.
Of course, these are not the most important ones. The key is that the elites who are willing to leave the European continent have long been poached away by the nobles in front.
If you look at the African continent, you will know that it was also a poor start. There are already more than a dozen professional universities in the area, and the quality of education is not low.
On the surface, these universities were established by the Vienna government, but in fact they were sponsored by local nobles.
It is not only sponsorship funds, but more importantly, sponsors. In addition to teachers dug from Europe, some teachers are directly children of local nobles.
This is also the national condition of Shenluo. The German region has a tradition of emphasizing education. The second generations who have sufficient resources have generally higher education.
In contrast, the Nanyang region does not have it. It is not the waste material of the local nobles. The main reason is that the opening up of the Austrian South Seas was too smooth, and the number of noble lords in enclaves was few.
If the base number is small, the probability of talents in science and engineering is even smaller. Even if it happens occasionally, it is a baby bump, and it's been arranged well.
"Ugh!"
After sighing, William said helplessly: "It seems that digging people can only wait for the economic crisis!"
Under the influence of Franz, none of the sons has the habit of irritating people for no reason. Robbery battles are staged in Shinra every day. In addition to being a prince, William has no advantage.
On this issue, don't expect the nobility to give him face. Don't say it's the prince, even the emperor will have to rely on his own means.
"His Royal Highness, in fact, it is not impossible to establish a university now. Although our number of teachers in science and engineering is insufficient, there is still no shortage of people in other fields. They can be sent to the country to study for half a year.
Given the special circumstances of the Nanyang region of Austria, we don't need to establish universities according to domestic standards at all, and just downgrade to technical colleges.
With Professor Drake and the students recommended by others, we can set up the shelf of science and engineering, and there is no problem in training basic science and engineering talents.
Anyway, there is no competition here, even if the quality of teaching is a little bit poor, there is no need to worry about the lack of students.
If we want to increase our international influence, we can also set up military basic education. With the prestige of the imperial army, there is no need to worry about not having international students to sign up. "
Rodriguez proposed.
Regardless of the quality of teaching, the establishment of the first university in Nanyang is a great achievement in itself. For William, who is in a state of assessment, this performance is definitely a big plus.
Since it is a bonus item, naturally the greater the momentum, the better. Although Shenluo does not advocate the internationalization of education, a university has an international influence, which is icing on the cake.
It just so happened that Nanyang University caught up with it. Because of its geographical location, it is inherently superior, not to mention the bonus of Shinra, which has a great influence on East Asian students.
If you have a thicker skin, you can claim to be the number one university in Asia. As for the University of Tokyo established earlier, just ignore it.
Anyway, East Asia is now in the stage of "foreign monks chanting scriptures". The University of Tokyo is far less powerful than later generations, and its status in the international arena may not be as high as that of some technical colleges.
For the "Nanyang University" under construction, as long as the popularity is beaten out, it will be half completed. As for the quality of education, it can be made up slowly later.
To put it bluntly, it takes years to go to college. It is entirely possible to supplement the teaching staff while starting classes.
As long as the quality of the final graduates is qualified, who dares to say that Nanyang University is not enough?
William asked uncertainly: "You mean that the quality of teaching is not enough, just use the quality of students to make up for it. The question is, can this work?"
Although Rodriguez did not say directly, but twice proposed "no lack of students", which is obviously the best hint.
"His Royal Highness, good schools can produce bad students, and bad schools also have good students.
Under the same background of teaching resources, such differentiation is obviously a problem of the students themselves.
The teaching materials and management models we use can be completely copied from domestic universities.
As long as the quality of the students we recruit is good enough and willing to delve into it, even if the teachers are lacking, it will not hurt. "
Cheating people, maybe they exist! After all, poor teaching quality does affect students' learning.
But in these years, it is not easy to have a higher education opportunity. The emergence of one more university means an increase of hundreds or thousands of opportunities.
The big waves are scouring the sand, so many students can always dig out gold. There is no need to be talented, as long as some people can reach the domestic average level, or a little bit worse, it is considered successful.
After pondering for a while, William nodded: "Then set up the shelf first, and I will communicate with the Ministry of Education to select the school site. Teacher recruitment and follow-up publicity work will be left to you.
If the Ministry of Education cannot send a worthy person to serve as the principal, I will do it myself. In order to ensure that the first enrollment can be successfully completed, the momentum must be built. "
It is never worth mentioning before politics. William also worked hard for his political achievements, and even prepared himself to be the principal.
...
In Tokyo, with the arrival of representatives of the Tsarist government, the Russian embassy case once again entered a new stage.
Under the strong suppression of the Japanese government, Tokyo finally returned to normal. In the context of the organizers rushing to jail, the protests and demonstrations of the people in Tokyo have also ended.
...
In the Embassy of the Holy Roman Empire in Tokyo, Minister Jose put down the coffee in his hand and asked cautiously: "Liu, are you sure how many students are released to help the empire expand its trade share in the Far East?"
With the passage of time, more and more Chinese students have been affected by Chiyu. The earliest hapless Wang Decheng, finally no longer alone.
The more people involved, the greater the power behind the activities. Originally, Chairman Liu, who was only going to be a matchmaker, was eventually moved and acted as a lobbyist.
Relying on his knowledge of the Holy Roman Empire, President Liu clearly stated whether the arrested students were wronged or not. It is meaningless.
If you want to ask someone for help, the best way is to benefit. Direct gift giving is too outdated. With the morals of the Shinra bureaucrats, gifts given to strangers are always clean and do nothing.
It takes a lot of time to operate secretly, and also bear the risk of exposure.
Neither the Zhonghua Guild Hall nor President Liu himself can take such a risk, even if the people behind it are very good.
If you don’t give gifts, then give your achievements. All bureaucrats like this thing, big or small.
Anyway, these things are contributed by the family behind the overseas students, and he only needs to be a good favor.
The fact is also true. When he heard that the trade share could be expanded, Minister Jose immediately became concerned.
It's nothing more than releasing a few hapless guys, which is not a matter at all. Don't say it's not a murderer, even if it is a real murderer, as long as the benefits are large enough, there is still room for negotiation.
"Your Excellency, the parents of these overseas students are all officials of the Far Eastern Empire, and the family behind them is very influential in the Far Eastern Empire.
If you can get them out now, you are their savior. We Chinese pay attention to knowledge and grace, you can reap the friendship between them and the family behind them at the same time.
It is somewhat difficult to expand your country’s market share in the Far East, but there is no problem at all to expand the market share of several foreign firms that you have designated in the Far East.
It is said that due to the tense relations between Japan and Russia, the Far Eastern Empire has recently made another one million military purchase order. The buyer has not yet been confirmed. Look..."
Before President Liu could finish speaking, Minister Jose's serious face burst into laughter: "If this order can fall into the hands of the Empire, I don't think this is a problem."
There is no way, the same ministers can be divided into three or six or nine. As the Minister to Japan, Jose obviously has no way to compare with the Ministers in Britain and Russia.
If it's just that, that's all, but Japan is too poor, and it doesn't have a chance to gain political success.
Had it not been for the outbreak of the Russian embassy case, he would still be the unexistent Minister of Shenluo, and would have no chance to perform at all.
Jose never expected that he would be favored one day. First, the Russian embassy case broke out, and I got the opportunity to gain political achievements, and now there is another big order for arms purchase.
Not to mention that the amount of one million taels of silver is not large, but it cannot hold up the huge profits of the arms trade. This order has a profit of at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. If the subsequent ammunition purchases are included, this profit will even exceed the current purchase contract.
If you take this order and throw it back to the military, you will not only reap a political achievement, but also get the military's favor.
For Minister Jose who is aspiring to official career, the significance of this is extraordinary. Even President Liu, who was watching this uninvited guest, was pleasing to the eye a lot.
After getting the exact answer, Chairman Liu was also relieved. Immediately promised: "Your Excellency, please rest assured. We will try our best to facilitate this transaction, but it will take some time to operate. Can you please get people out first?"
Don't worry, the trial meeting hosted by the International Court of Justice has already begun. If you don't get any more people, you will have to meet in court.
I saw Minister Jose smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I can still speak in the International Court of Justice.
As a group of students who don't know anything about it, participating in the parade is completely coerced by others and has nothing to do with the Russian embassy case.
If it is released in advance, it will easily cause suspicion from the outside world. It's better to wait and let the international court prove their innocence. "
It's not bragging. As the Minister of Shinra, Jose does have the ability to influence the judgment of the International Court of Justice.
Just look at the composition of the International Court of Justice, most of which are from the European continent. Maybe they will be tried in violation of the principle, and some people may refuse. But let go of a few dried shrimps that are not even small fish, then it is not a problem.
Seeing this man in front of him, I don't see the rabbit or scatter the eagle, President Liu hesitated to speak.
