Charles hung up William's phone and immediately began to contact the top 10 universities in the UK.
As an old prince who has been active in the UK for many years, Charles has a very strong connection in the country. The heads of several top comprehensive universities in the UK all have friendship with him.
Interestingly, Britain is an old imperialist country after all. Although the royal family no longer holds political power, they still hold the honorary right. For the elite of this country, the greatest honor is given by the royal family, so they have a very close relationship with the royal family and give the royal family face.
Charles communicates one by one, and every script is the same. First say hello to each other, and then ask if they are interested in cooperating with Makino technology.
Generally speaking, when Charles talks with Makino technology, they all show great interest, not only because they want to sell Charles a face, but also because Makino technology is so well-known around the world.
After confirming the interest of the other party, Charles will give further details of the cooperation:
the appeal of Makino technology is to hope that these colleges can provide China with a certain number of exchange places every year, which should be as many as possible and cover as many subjects as possible;
the return of Makino technology is to provide these schools with a certain number For example, if Li Mu gives 20 direct jobs to Cambridge every year, he will recruit 20 people from Cambridge every year.
Charles's first contact was Alec brous, President of Cambridge University.
Alec brous is a very legendary person. He is an Australian. He studied in Cambridge, studied electronic engineering, and then joined IBM. After nearly 20 years of service at IBM, he returned to Cambridge as IBM's chief scientist to set up a laboratory and became president of Cambridge in 1996.
Alec brous has devoted almost all his career in social enterprises to IBM, which is a well-known global supplier of business computer hardware and solutions, so he has a great understanding of the Internet and attaches great importance to it.
However, this year's UK has not formed a strong Internet entrepreneurial atmosphere. Although there are several well-known high wage technology enterprises in the UK, these enterprises generally focus on chip based hardware and do not know the product based Internet industry so well.
This has led to an awkward situation: there are almost no real Internet companies in the UK.
Alec brous himself is very anxious about the development of the Internet in the UK. He even thinks that it is necessary for Cambridge to improve the strength and level of the whole country in the Internet. Therefore, he has been promoting the establishment of a "Silicon swamp" park around Cambridge, attracting transnational Internet companies and local Internet companies.
However, although Alec brous has this heart, he does not have the ability to activate the whole market.
Not only do Internet companies in Britain have little development, but also Cambridge students seem not very enthusiastic about the Internet. Their employment plans for the future are generally in Europe, which itself is not a soil with Internet foundation.
Almost half of Cambridge students choose to stay in Europe for development after graduation, and a few choose to return to their homeland. Only a small part of them will decide to go to North America for development. Moreover, due to the consistent development of Cambridge, almost all of the students going to North America go to Hua'er Street, and few choose to go to Silicon Valley.
The reason for not choosing Silicon Valley is not that they are not interested in Silicon Valley, but that they feel that it is much more difficult for them to enter Silicon Valley than to enter Wall Street.
Although these universities such as Cambridge, Oxford and imperial technology are very popular, but in this year, because they are located in Europe and far away from the center of the Internet industry, students of these universities have few opportunities to truly enter the core circle of the Internet, let alone the top enterprises such as Muye technology.
If Makino doesn't offer them direct employment, it's likely that they won't be hired by Cambridge for the first time of the year.
The reason is not that Cambridge is not good, but that Silicon Valley companies are more inclined to recruit local employees, as well as experienced and hard-working Chinese and Indian employees. For European college students, they are born with some exclusion.
What's more, even American colleges and universities like Stanford and MIT, which are close to the holy land of the Internet, are not so easy for their students to enter the pastoral technology. What's more, those students in Europe who are far away from the Internet battlefield.
For British universities, they are also aware of the rapid development of the Internet industry, so they are eager to find a good opportunity to break into the core layer of the Internet and Silicon Valley.
At this stage, Silicon Valley is far from as international as it was more than ten years later. More than 70% of the practitioners in Silicon Valley now graduated from American universities, and the rest are mostly from China and India.
It's easy for students from European universities to enter Wall Street. It's not so easy to enter Silicon Valley.
At this time, Europe, similar to Japan, had a strong economic foundation, a strong industrial and academic foundation, but there was no strong Internet foundation.Japan failed to seize the Internet industry, and so did Europe. In more than ten years, the top 20 Internet companies in the world will be divided by American enterprises and Chinese enterprises. Europe, Japan and other countries have no chance.
The reason is that no other country has created a real Internet industry atmosphere except the United States and China.
European institutions of higher learning have seen and worried about these problems for a long time.
For any well-known university in the world, the most important thing is not academic achievements and academic construction, but the spread of graduate students around the world, all walks of life. Li Mu summed up this as academic colonization.
In Li Mu's eyes, academic colonization is a kind of vertical penetration of civilization means, which is common in modern society.
If several graduates from Tsinghua University enter Silicon Valley and get influential positions in influential jobs, more and more graduates from Tsinghua University in Silicon Valley will eventually become a large-scale student union;
if the students from the school of finance of Jiaotong University can stand firm on Wall Street, there will be more graduates from Jiaotong University in the future Wall street takes root.
If an institution is enlarged to a country, the scale and significance of academic colonization will be greater and more profound.
Academic colonization, just like ethnic migration, will continue as long as the pioneers can stand firm and make achievements.
Universities in Europe, especially in the UK, all hope to make achievements in the field of high-tech it. If their students are sent to Silicon Valley and the best Internet enterprises in the world, it becomes their dream. At this time, Li Mu gives them a great springboard, which is of great significance to these schools.
So these schools are very interested in what Charles said about cooperation. They take some exchange student resources to exchange for an opportunity to go to Silicon Valley or the world's first Internet enterprise for academic colonization. This business is very cost-effective.
Alec brous is also eager for such cooperation. He hopes that Makino technology can give these young people more opportunities to see the future and prepare them for their future in advance. If they can send a group of people to Makino technology directly, it will be more perfect.
So Alec brous quickly agreed to Charles's request and offered more than 100 exchange places to make a mutually beneficial deal with Li Mu.
Charles quickly summed up the feedback of British universities on Li Mu's cooperation plan.
Among the top 10 universities in the UK, every college is willing to establish cooperation with Li Mu, and the number of exchange students they can offer ranges from more than 100 to dozens.
One of the most generous is Cambridge University, which has given 150 exchange places at a time, covering almost all majors of undergraduate and graduate schools.
……
When Li Mu returned to Ziyun villa, it was already over nine o'clock in the evening.
Zhao Ziqiu is still playing with the dog in the yard. In one day, she has established a good emotional foundation with the Kogi. The little guy has regarded her as the owner and has been around her all the time.
Seeing Li Mu coming back, Zhao Ziqiu hurriedly said to Li Mu, "lucky is so cute and smart. Would you like to play with him for a while?"
Li Mu said with a smile, "what KY do you want to call a dog?"
After that, he went to the dog, squatted down, touched his dog's head, smiled and said, "what kind of dog, is this worse than your hometown?"
Although Ziyun villa is also a very high-end villa area, compared with Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle, it is too much worse.
Gouzi and Li Mu didn't touch each other very much. He touched them twice. Maybe he was a little scared. He instinctively stepped back and looked at him with small eyes. He was on guard.
Li Mu said with a smile, "look at your advice. I can still eat you."
Zhao Ziqiu shook his head and said with a smile, "how could you get along with a dog like this, and scare it again."
Li Mu said with a smile, "it's OK. I just tease it first."
Zhao Ziqiu said, "be careful that it doesn't pay attention to you later."
Li Mu said, "it's OK. I'll be familiar with it after living together for a few more days."
Zhao Ziqiu asked him, "have you ever had a dog before?"
Li Mu nodded and said, "we used to have a Jingba in our family, but I don't know what happened. In those years, Jingba was very popular. All the people who walked dogs on the streets walked Jingba."
Zhao Ziqiu asked, "how did you raise the old Jingba?"
Li Mu thought for a while and said, "take it out for a walk once or twice a day, and then basically follow what people eat, and nothing else."
Zhao Ziqiu said, "the dog is a precious breed. You can't keep it like Jingba."
Li Mu said with a smile, "what's the gold? Isn't it said that Jingba was raised in the palace by the old Buddha? It's much more expensive than that. "
Zhao Ziqiu said with a smile, "you will be blind and poor all day long."After that, Zhao Ziqiu took Li Mu's hand and said, "let's go in and have a meal first. I'll make you fried noodles with sauce."
