Seven Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Knowledge
There was winter snow outside the window, and the temperature had already dropped below zero.
But the low temperature cannot penetrate the double-glazed windows, and the house is still warm. The children of the Laman family were playing snowball fights outside in thick winter clothes. The temperature in India and California is very high, and snow is a rare occurrence.
Seeing the happy children playing outside the window, Laman himself smiled knowingly. A few months ago, he was an old hat, and now he has changed drastically. He is in charge of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars in assets, and manages hundreds of the world's best talents. His tolerance and self-confidence are flourishing.
Zhou Qingfeng has always been suspicious of employing people, and he is not suspicious of employing people. He didn't have time to manage chores, so he just let it go. This caused the people under him to have great power and responsibility, and when something happened, he would directly find the person in charge to trouble him.
Raman never thought that he would be able to mobilize huge human, material and financial resources one day. When he first asked to spend more than 30 million US dollars to purchase equipment, his signing hands were trembling.
But when this dark-skinned, humble Indian scholar found power so easy to use, he actually hid in his office and cried for a long time. For this reason, he specially wrote his experience in China into an email and sent it to his first teacher in India.
"Dear teacher, I haven't been able to write to you for several months. Before, it was because of life difficulties, but now I am busy with work. I am free today, and I would like to tell you about the recent situation.
Three months ago, I was still worrying about my future in my residence in California, when I suddenly got a good job in China. I swear to the gods, I really don't know why I was chosen? But I couldn't refuse, so I took my whole family to an ordinary city in Northeast China.
For three months, I experienced a great psychological shock. I have a strong desire to tell you what I see, hear, and think.
Before I arrived in this city called 'Tianyang', I knew that Huaxia was already a world-class country. But I also feel that China has an imperial capital, a magical capital, a large city, and a large number of talents, and our India is not bad.
We have Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore, and Calcutta, and our biopharmaceutical and software industries are among the best in the world. I have always felt that China can develop in more than 30 years, so India must be able to.
But I now find it meaningless to focus only on the most developed cities in a country. If you want to compare, you should compare ordinary cities that are more ordinary, more extensive, and more basic. 'Tianyang' is such an ordinary Chinese city.
When I arrived at 'Tianyang', I was told that it was a decaying old industrial city, with all aspects of development shrinking, and the economy was very bad.
I also agree with this statement when I see the wasteland where the lab will be built, the situation here is really bad. I think it would be great if the lab could be built within two years.
But in just one night, I found out that my and the locals' measure of 'terrible' was too different. It only took one day for the construction workers here to level the 20,000 square meters of land where the laboratory will be built.
Where is this bad? This is obviously great!
The construction workers here can call a large number of construction machinery with one call, and easily recruit dozens or even hundreds of workers with rich construction experience with another call. Everyone gathers and immediately understands their responsibilities. They work through the night with little rest.
one day,
Really got the job done in one day.
I was amazed that the convenient transportation here can easily transport a large number of construction machinery, and I was also surprised by the low price and skilled skills of skilled workers.
But what surprised me the most was the organization and management ability of the foreman. This kind of person is a project manager in the United States, with an annual salary of more than 100,000 US dollars. But I asked through an interpreter which university he graduated from with a major in civil engineering, and the answer I got was that this foreman in his fifties graduated from junior high school and is the head of a nearby village, and he never went to college at all.
Believe me, I was really overwhelmed.
I think that in rural India, a village head can easily gather hundreds of people, but these hundreds of people should be illiterate. It is absolutely impossible for hundreds of people in their 40s and 50s to have a junior high school education like in China.
Only then did I understand that this country began to popularize education in the 1970s and 1980s. As a result, the labor force here has strong cognitive ability and low management costs.
I used to think that elite education in India was the right thing to do, but now I'm not convinced. Anyone in a country has a junior high school culture, and the benefits of this are extremely obvious.
After thinking about it for a long time, I never thought that there is another country that can provide such a huge, low-cost and high-quality population. The local laborers are not proud of their education level at all. Everyone says they have no education. In their opinion, they are almost illiterate if they have not studied in university.
I absolutely disagree with this point of view, and even express my anger!
The subsequent construction of the laboratory was surprisingly fast. Although I have never met the real investor of this laboratory, there is no doubt that his economic strength is very strong.
The infrastructure construction of the entire laboratory cost about 300 million U.S. dollars, and the money was spent in three months, in exchange for an enviable experimental park.
With the best environment, the most advanced equipment, and the best talents, even the local people are extremely surprised that a barren beach has turned into an extremely beautiful scientific research community.
I am extremely satisfied with my work and life here. Within three months, more than 100 high-level biochemical researchers joined me. Their original nationalities and backgrounds are all different, and my job is to coordinate the relationship between them.
So far, I'm doing pretty well. As for the content of work, I have signed a non-disclosure agreement so I can't say more, but I want to talk about life here.
The abundance of supplies is common, but what surprised me was the harmonious interpersonal relationship here. This is what I originally wanted to get in the United States but didn't get it. I was surprised to get it in China.
I was born in a low caste in Sudra, and my school experience was extremely difficult. The reason why I went to the United States was to obtain a free space for development. I brought my daughter from India to the United States because I didn't want her to be treated as a slave or even enslaved by her high-caste classmates.
But what disappoints me is that in India it is the upper caste that bullies the lower caste and in America it is the lower caste that bullies the lower caste. My daughter has been excluded and even bullied at school. I complained to the school teacher countless times, but the answer I got was to tell my daughter not to cause trouble.
My daughter is the most obedient in the world, she is even very timid, how could she cause trouble? And there was nothing I could do about it, nothing could change the situation.
But in China, a small, so-called "rundown" city, my daughter went to a bilingual school on the first day, and at night she happily ran to me and said, "Dad, I have made friends. The teachers and children here All like me'.
That was a real relief, and then I felt it in my interactions with the locals. They were not xenophobic. When they heard that I was from India, they just smiled and said 'oh', and after a few chats, they didn't care about my identity at all.
I was always worried about whether I would encounter some trouble or discrimination because of the relationship between the country, ethnicity, and customs. And my translator told me that as long as they respect each other, ordinary people in China do not have extreme hatred of foreigners. Officials will even deliberately take care of outstanding talents from abroad.
These three months of life are the most comfortable for me in the past ten years, and I can't help but plan to live here for a long time. It's a pity that Huaxia's green card is the most difficult to get in the world. This is the only thing that frustrates me. "(To be continued.)
