Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1444 Pan Zongguang

That night, Duan Yun came to Longjingxuan restaurant, in the VIP room on the second floor, and Pan Zongguang, the principal of the Hong Kong Government Advanced Technical Institute.

For Duan Yun's arrival, Pan Zongguang attached great importance to it. He immediately stepped forward to shake hands with Duan Yun, and then invited him to his side with a smile on his face.

Compared with universities in the Mainland, Hong Kong is much more efficient and open. They actively cooperate with local and foreign companies, attach importance to academic research exchanges, and also pay attention to the scale and efficiency of the school. In their thinking, they adopt the The same business model as a business is used to run a university.

It is rare for mainland enterprises to cooperate with Hong Kong universities before. In the past, Hong Kong universities only participated in some academic exchanges and research activities in the Mainland, and basically had no economic cooperation and exchanges. Duan Yun’s Tianyin Group was also the first to come to Hong Kong universities Mainland Chinese companies looking for cooperation.

Pan Zongguang was very surprised when he first learned that a mainland company established a branch in Hong Kong and sought to establish an industry-university-research cooperation with their school, and even questioned the authenticity of this matter.

However, when Duan Yun came to visit and took the initiative to discuss cooperation matters, Pan Zongguang confirmed the authenticity of this matter and became very interested in Tianyin Group.

At first, Pan Zongguang thought that Tianyin Group was a state-owned enterprise, but when he heard Duan Yun's introduction, he was shocked. He didn't know until then that there would be such a large-scale private enterprise in mainland China with annual profit Up to hundreds of millions of dollars, this completely overturned his cognition, and before that, Pan Zongguang didn't even know that there were private enterprises in China, and believed that in the economic system of socialist countries, only state-owned enterprises existed.

What makes him even more incredible is that the founder of a private enterprise of such a scale is actually a young man in his 20s. A few years ago, he was just an ordinary worker in a state-owned enterprise, which made Pan Zongguang a little awestruck Sincerely, during that visit, Pan Zongguang was very enthusiastic towards Duan Yun, and personally led him to visit the chemistry department he was in charge of, and the two also had a preliminary exchange.

Now Pan Zongguang has been promoted from the head of the chemistry department to the position of principal. Facing Duan Yun, a potential big benefactor, Pan Zongguang has shown more hospitality, so after learning that Duan Yun came to Hong Kong, he immediately sent a message to him. Invitation card.

"Principal Pan wasted money." Duan Yun said to Pan Zongguang with a smile after sitting down.

"It's not a waste of money, it's my honor to have dinner with a distinguished guest like Manager Duan." Pan Zongguang said hastily.

Compared with some scholars in the mainland who like to put on a lofty posture, Pan Zongguang is a very pragmatic person. He can always take the initiative to lower his posture when facing his school’s sponsors, even if he is a very great person himself. It has a very high influence in Hong Kong academia.

There is an old saying in Hong Kong that "laugh at the poor but not at the prostitutes". The amount of money you earn becomes the greatest measure of a person's value. Whether you are a scholar or a scholar, in Hong Kong, a highly developed and materialistic international metropolis, wealth is A symbol of a person's success and status.

It is precisely because of this that not only the Hong Kong Government Advanced Institute of Technology, but also other Hong Kong universities. When Duan Yun went to Shenzhen University to seek cooperation in the early years, no matter how much money he paid, he was unwilling to cooperate with private companies. Cooperation, but this kind of thing does not exist in Hong Kong. As long as you have enough money, it is no problem to build a villa in the university.

"The two of us have been cooperating for a year, and I am very satisfied with the results of our cooperation last year." Duan Yun took a sip from the teacup, and then said: "The professionalism and level of your school's laboratory are very high, so I plan to continue to increase investment in Tianyin Laboratory this year, and hope that your school can provide more outstanding talents..."

"That's easy to say!" Pan Zongguang replied very simply, only to hear him continue: "It is also an honor for our school to be able to cooperate with an enterprise like Tianyin Group. In fact, there are many highly educated talents in our school who are interested in the laboratory. If Manager Duan is willing to increase investment, we can definitely expand the scale of the laboratory and make the laboratory larger and more efficient."

"Your school's microelectronics major is very good. I have communicated remotely with some relevant postgraduates and doctors of your school before. I am very satisfied with their theoretical foundation and technical literacy. I wonder if your school can help our company train some Talent." Duan Yun asked.

"Our universities in Hong Kong are completely open. Except for dormitories and office buildings, other places can be visited casually, and you can also go to classrooms to attend lectures, but you don't have exam qualifications and diplomas." Pan Zongguang smiled slightly, and then said: "Of course If you can pass some simple exams in our school, you can also come to our school to study at your own expense, and we can arrange dormitory and exams for self-funded students, and if you pass the grades, you can also obtain relevant degrees and diplomas.”

At this moment, Pan Zongguang is completely a businessman. Exchanging knowledge and technology for wealth is also the most commonly used external business model for major universities in Hong Kong. In addition, they have another way to make money, which is to attract some high-priced self-funded students. As long as the price is high enough, students with lower grades and better family backgrounds can enroll these students with a low threshold or no exams. This is in stark contrast to the strict college entrance examination system in the Mainland.

In fact, the difference between colleges and universities in Hong Kong, Europe and the United States and those in the mainland is that colleges and universities in the mainland have strict admission and wide exit, while universities in Hong Kong, Europe and the United States adopt the standard of strict entry and strict exit. It is even more difficult. You must pass all the prescribed subject examinations before you can officially graduate. Therefore, the mode of self-financed students is very common in Hong Kong, Europe and the United States.

"Yes, if there is a chance, I will arrange some people to come to your school for training." Duan Yun nodded and said.

At present, there are many technicians and operators in Tianyin Group's chip factory, including Wu Gang and others who were the first to go to Japan for training. Some theoretical knowledge learned in China is relatively backward, and I am afraid that it will not meet the requirements of the rapid development of chip factories in the future.

Core technicians including Wu Gang have already signed long-term contracts with Tianyin Group. Since these people cannot be easily fired and replaced, the best way is to train them for a long time.

So if there is an opportunity, Duan Yun will arrange for the technical workers of these chip factories to study in batches, so that their ability and level can be improved to a higher level, so as to adapt to the future development of Tianyin Group...
