Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 702 International students are completely feasible!
Except for the group of students who study abroad at public expense, those who study abroad at their own expense.
To be honest, at this point in 1983, Carter didn't expect much of this gang.

But as long as they are able to study abroad at their own expense, even if they can afford such a transoceanic air ticket, and they can afford the tuition fee (without applying for a scholarship), these people's family background is not ordinary!
Just now Stevens also said that Yale's current tuition standard is 6130 US dollars a year, which is more than 4000 US dollars in four years.Even if it is the official exchange rate, it costs more than 7 RMB. If it is the black market exchange rate, it will start at 20 RMB!
In the era when [-]-yuan households were awesome, you can take out the money of [-]-yuan households and you can really exchange money through the official exchange rate.
If these students can come to Yale, it will be of great help to their future career in Greater China!
A lot of this is no longer a matter of money!
Besides, even if it is really poor people, such as the whole village, all the old and young jointly raised funds to send it out, that's okay!
I was able to apply to a prestigious school like Yale, and it was approved by the admissions office.The minimum ability of this person is not a problem. After this kind of person is in the pocket, it is also very good to send him back in the future to help him manage some branches.

In the communication between Gauthall and Bartlett, Carter also got a very instructive conceptual suggestion: that is, how multinational companies should do.
The national conditions, laws and customs of each country are all different.Then multinational companies will inevitably face a choice between localization or standardization.

Standardization is conducive to the information control of the headquarters, while localization is in line with the market and helps enterprises gain a better foothold.

In Carter's view, he wanted both of these two points.Internal management follows standardization, and all branches are treated equally. However, in the market operation link, some local employees are needed to control and delegate power appropriately.

So, who is better suited to do it than these native-born people? !
It's not that Carter can't find Chinese now, but the ones he sees are all second-generation or even third-generation immigrants.Their understanding of China is even worse than their own.
"It's easy to say about the quality of education. Generally speaking, except for the public general education course, which may be a little more stressful in terms of classroom capacity, other courses should not be said to be unable to carry so many students. Besides, this is not too much, is it?"

"If it doesn't work, you can also try to implement audio-visual education. That is, electronic classrooms, such as blackboards, are displayed on TV in the form of pictures prepared in advance."

"It's not easy to operate, is it?"

"It's okay, the LED screen is already there, just get a bracket to set it up, or hang it up."

Touching his chin, Carter slowly pondered
A TV, or a narrow-screen TV similar to the one I used when I was in college, is now technically possible to make!Of course, in terms of resolution and color gamut, it is definitely not comparable to the future.

But to kill that big ass TV, it's totally fine!The big ass TV, the reason why it has that big butt, is usually because of the CRT screen, and its image is so complicated.Changing to an LED screen can solve this problem.

However, it is also true that the cost of the LED screen at this meeting is not low!
"If it is really difficult, I can donate a batch of narrow-screen TVs to some large classrooms for teaching. The teachers in the computer department should know how to do the production of courseware, and it should not be difficult to train them. As for the accommodation, I Remember that some properties around the school belong to Yale, so can’t they be converted into apartments?”

"It's not that it can't be changed, but there's not much left. Except for the land at the Yale Bowl that can't be sold, the land on the school side and the old city can be sold almost as soon as it is. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't Would choose to sacrifice the quality of education to expand the enrollment of so many students, wouldn't you?"

While sighing, Stevens also noticed that Carter seemed to care too much about international students.
"You seem to be optimistic about the direction of international students?"

"Yes, I am really optimistic about this direction. When I heard from my roommate that the school had this consideration, I prepared some materials, but I didn't know it without reading it. I was shocked when I saw it."

Speaking of which, Carter is in good spirits.
"We at Yale are really innovative!"

"Ok?"

"Yale was the first batch to receive Chinese students. Oh, by the way, I have come up with a solution to the accommodation problem! Didn't Yale accept a group of Chinese students from the Qing government back then? Didn't they just arrange residents in the surrounding area? We can learn from this model now!”

Speaking of the relationship between Yale and China, Carter was really shocked
The first Western-style hospital in Chinese history, Guangzhou Eye Hospital, was established in 1835.Founded by Yale Divinity School and Medical School graduate Peter Parker.
In 1854, Yung Wing graduated from Yale University and became the first Chinese to receive a degree from an American university.

In 1878, Samuel Williams, who had worked as a missionary and diplomat in China, was hired by Yale University and became the first professor of Chinese language and literature in an American university.As early as 1936, Yale University opened a Chinese major, which can be called the first institution in the United States to offer a Chinese major.

And in the same year, the famous Zhan Tianyou also came to Yale University with a group of kids
Also in this year, the group of young children sent by the Qing government to study in the United States were too young.Yale University had to arrange for them to live in the homes of nearby residents so that someone could take care of the children’s lives. This was the earliest prototype of the American host family homestay.
After talking about Yale, look at China.
The first president of Fudan University, at that time should be Fudan Public School, ***, a graduate of Yale; the first president of Tsinghua University, then it should be Tsinghua Academy, Tang Guoan, a graduate of Yale.
Even among the first five presidents of Tsinghua University, four had studied at Yale.

In addition to education, there are Xiangya Medical University and Xiangya Hospital in "Northern Concord, South Xiangya".Xiang, of course, means Hunan, and Ya, actually means "Ya Li", and Ya Li is the transliteration of yale.
The Yale-China Association, which co-founded the Xiangya Medical College with the Yuqun Association, is an organization similar to the alumni association composed of a group of Yale graduates
There is one thing to say, after finding out these records, Carter was dumbfounded.

Part of my doubts were resolved: No wonder my original interviewer was able to find Professor Liu from Tsinghua University who was studying at MIT; the other part was anger: What the hell, the old dean lied to me that Yale has no Chinese professor? !I had to force myself to choose French in the blue book!

And the original dumbfounded, in exchange for
"I think the field of international students is very manageable! If nothing else, it's not difficult at all to gather [-] international students for you in China. If necessary, I can contact the professors at Tsinghua University. For a moment, communicate your intention in advance and let them select a group of students, what do you think?"
