Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1271 Freedom to Come and Go
"The two of you came to our school today. I wonder if there is anything we can do for you?" After exchanging polite words for a while, Zhou Yaoming finally got to the point.

"This... Xiao Duan, let's talk about it." Qin Wenjun turned his head to look at Duan Yun, and said to him.

In fact, Qin Wenjun came here today just to support Duan Yun's appearance. Although he didn't want to take too much care of the affairs of the chamber of commerce, after all, the chamber of commerce had just been established, so he had to do something.

"Principal Zhou, it's like this..." Duan Yun put down the teacup in his hand, and continued, "I came to your school today mainly to discuss cooperation with your school..."

"Cooperation? What kind of cooperation method?" Zhou Yaoming asked.

"As you know, our Chamber of Commerce for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises in Shenzhen has not been established for a long time, mainly small and medium-sized private enterprises in Shenzhen. For a long time, our small and medium-sized enterprises in Shenzhen lack capital, technology and talents. Of course, we It can be solved, but in terms of technology and talents, it is indeed a huge obstacle to the development of our chamber of commerce..."

"Eh..." Hearing this, Zhou Yaoming was stunned, and said to Duan Yun: "President Duan, our school has never been based on teaching and educating people. I don't know what method to use to cooperate with you, can you tell me carefully?"

Zhou Yaoming has never heard of local enterprises looking for cooperation with universities. Although there have been factory directors and managers of state-owned enterprises who have come to the school to give lectures or participate in some seminars, this is only academic and does not involve other aspects. Commercial interests and technical support, so when Zhou Yaoming heard that Duan Yun's chamber of commerce wanted to cooperate with their university, he felt very curious.

"This is the case. After the establishment of our Chamber of Commerce, we learned about the practical problems faced by member companies. In order to solve the problems of lack of technology faced by their companies, the Chamber of Commerce decided to establish a "Shenzhen SME Technical Assistance Center" in the next step. It mainly provides technical and talent support to private enterprises in a paid or free way.” Duan Yun paused, and then said: “If you want to talk about highly educated talents, Jinan University has a wealth of talents and strong faculty. The outstanding teaching achievements have trained many top talents in the country, so what our Chamber of Commerce means is to ask you Jinan University to provide some highly educated technical talents for our newly established SME Technical Assistance Center. Of course, as compensation, we also I will give you some financial sponsorship to Jinan University..."

The so-called "Shenzhen Technology Assistance Center for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises" was established by Duan Yun's suggestion. It is impossible for him to directly let these college students go to his factory for internship. The department is actually used by Duan Yun to avoid suspicion. He still wants to use this department to select elite university talents.

"Wait!" Zhou Yaoming interrupted Duan Yun when he heard this, and only heard him continue: "But our students are very busy with their studies. Apart from studying on campus and completing the scheduled courses every day, how can we go to you?" Chamber of Commerce to help? This is simply unrealistic..."

"Then the students in your school should have a one-year internship period like other universities?" Duan Yun asked.

"Of course, except for some special majors, our school usually enters the internship period in the second half of the junior year... You don't want students to go to your support center for internships?" Zhou Yaoming suddenly understood.

"That's right, that's what I mean." Duan Yun nodded.

"This... I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you..."

"why?"

"Because our school is a bit special, because they are all children of overseas Chinese from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, so the internship arrangement during the university is also based on a voluntary policy. Our school cannot force them to arrange internship units..." Zhou Yaoming said Showing embarrassment, he continued: "In addition, a large part of our school students mainly major in journalism and other liberal arts, and science and technology students only account for about 1/3 of the school's teachers and students, and many students are keen to return to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan to find The internship unit is not willing to stay in the mainland..."

"That's it..." Duan Yun nodded upon hearing this.

In fact, compared to other universities in China, Jinan University is a very special university.

This university is directly under the leadership of the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Judging from the departments directly under his superiors, the political significance is already obvious. To put it bluntly, this is an institution of higher learning whose political significance is greater than that of professional academics, at least in the 80s.

Since the early 80s, Jinan University has implemented separate propositions for overseas Chinese students from Hong Kong and Macao, taking examinations and admissions in advance. In order to attract overseas Chinese students to enroll, the admission threshold is set very low, which makes many students in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions unable to enter prestigious schools. You can choose to study at Jida University. In 1987, more than 2000 overseas students applied for Jida University. By 1988, the children of overseas Chinese had accounted for 90% of the huge number of students. It is truly the highest institution of overseas Chinese.

In fact, the main significance of the country's establishment of this university is to allow more students to positively promote all aspects of the motherland in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. This kind of institution is more similar to the Confucius Institute of later generations, so most of their majors are liberal arts. The Department of History and Journalism and the Department of Finance are the main ones, but there are also some technical subjects such as computer science and technology, electronic information engineering, material science and engineering.

In addition, the remaining 10% of students admitted from the mainland are almost all engaged in high-tech professional studies.

Because of the special source of students, the state has relatively loose management of these overseas Chinese children, and will not force them to arrange internship units. They are allowed to return to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan for internships, and they can go freely after graduation without obeying the school's work arrangements.

So even if Zhou Yaoming wanted to help Duan Yun, he couldn't force these students to go to the Shenzhen Chamber of Commerce for internship.

"In recent years, these students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan have rarely stayed in the mainland for internships. Most of them will return to their places to find a unit for internships. The main reason is that the salary gap between the mainland and Hong Kong and Taiwan is still relatively large." Zhou Yaoming added road.

"Of course, we must respect the individual wishes of the students for internships. In addition, if these students are willing to come to our support center for internships, I can provide them with an internship salary equivalent to that in Hong Kong and Taiwan. In addition, those mainland students in your school, come to us to help them. I can also give them an internship salary of up to 800 yuan per month!" Duan Yun said bluntly.
