Shenhao started as a military training anchor

Chapter 920 Highest Level Economic Symposium
Holly invested 20 billion yuan in Mount Everest University of Science and Technology, which adopted a joint school-running model involving local governments, the Ministry of Education, and enterprises.

Enterprises provide capital, local governments provide land and policies, and the Ministry of Education provides faculty and part of the scientific research funds. The goal is to create an internationally renowned research-oriented university.

We do not recruit undergraduates, only graduate students, doctoral students, and other research talents.

It can also be said to be a bold attempt and reform in domestic higher education.

If successful, this research university will also be linked to the fate of the country.

Significance.

Therefore, the main leaders of the Ministry of Education and the main leaders of the municipal government all attended the groundbreaking ceremony that day.

Mainstream media and influential media from across the country also arrived at the scene to do on-site reporting.

Jiangcheng City Party Secretary, Ministry of Education leaders and Holly spoke on stage as representatives of the three parties.

They all expressed their confidence in higher education reform and their prospects for Everest University of Science and Technology.

We look forward to the birth of more technical talents and cutting-edge technology patents in this university.

The century-long road to science and technology must start with education and lay a solid foundation for basic scientific research.

After the speech, under the attention of the media, Holly and two leaders took shovels to attend the groundbreaking ceremony.

The construction of Mount Everest University of Science and Technology, with an initial investment of 20 billion yuan, has officially started.

Holly is very much looking forward to the day when it opens for students.

After the event, we had lunch at the hotel.

Two university management talents hired by Holly, Professor Zheng Qiang and Academician Gao, communicated school philosophy and exchanged management experiences with leaders of the Ministry of Education.

Holly and the secretary chatted for a while.

The secretary said, "The university of science and technology you've been dreaming of has now landed. Are you relieved?"

Holly smiled and toasted the secretary, thanking him for his help and care all the time.

If he hadn't personally stepped in to help, this matter might not have been accomplished.

After all, it is related to the reform of higher education.

The secretary instructed: "We have used so many connections and invested so much money, so we must run this university well.

If we fail, it will only bring shame to you and me, but the pace of higher education reform will have to slow down, otherwise the gains will outweigh the losses.”

This is true.

Today's higher education can no longer keep up with market changes.

Ultimately, the contradiction between productive forces and production relations is intensifying.

If Holly can make Mount Everest Science and Technology a reform pilot and achieve results, the pace of university reform may be even bigger.

It can also be regarded as a huge contribution to the employment issues of tens of millions of college students.

Holly said: "The secretary and I have known each other for more than a year or two, right?

I think I have not let you down so far."

The secretary smiled and shook his head, his eyes full of admiration, and clinked glasses with Holly again, "Do you want to attend the entrepreneur symposium in Beijing?"

"The chief is presiding over the meeting, so you must go," Holly said.

This meeting concerns the entire national economy. The leader personally presided over it and Holly was invited to attend, so there was no reason for him not to go.

The secretary said, "It just so happens that I also have to go to the capital for a meeting, so we can go together then."

"Okay, Secretary, I'll let you know when I've made the arrangements," Holly said with a smile.

After dinner, Holly invited the leaders of the Ministry of Education to stay in the hotel and rest.

He also communicated with Zheng Qiang and Academician Gao for a while.

We drank tea until 3:30 in the afternoon, then flew back to the manor in a private business helicopter parked at the EasySpeed ​​Global Headquarters in the High-tech Zone.

Another international video conference was held in the evening.

The team sent by E-Sun Auto to Thailand, Indonesia and India to "open up new areas" has already taken root in the three countries.

Southeast Asia is an important region for Yian's exports in Holly's strategic deployment.

The person in charge in Thailand said that the Thai royal family invited him to visit Bangkok to discuss the establishment of a factory in Thailand.

Holly has a good relationship with the Thai royal family and has cooperation in aviation business and tourism investment. If he can find a balance of interests, Holly is willing to build a factory in Thailand. Not only is the labor cost low there, but it also saves a lot of tariffs and has stronger price competitiveness.

Several domestic new energy brands have already established production factories in Thailand.

The same is true in India. The Indian government invited Holly to visit New Delhi to discuss factory construction matters.

I guess he has some problem with Musk.

Tesla has factories in both China and India, but Musk's attitude towards users in the two countries is very different.

The Indian government may want to introduce Yian to check and balance Tesla. After all, it is a market with a population of more than one billion.

Tesla cannot be allowed to reap the benefits of India’s population dividend while also giving the New Delhi government a hard time.

After the symposium in Beijing, Holly will visit Thailand and India.

……

This Beijing Entrepreneurs Forum attracted the largest number of mainland entrepreneurs, economists, state-owned enterprise leaders and entrepreneur representatives from the Greater Bay Area in history.

As the downward trend in the international economic situation becomes increasingly evident, the country must take action to coordinate and plan the overall economy.

Holly and Lei Jun went to the venue together. On the way, they met entrepreneur representatives such as Wang Wei of SF Express and Zhong Shanshan of Nongfu Spring, as well as leaders of state-owned enterprises such as CRRC Corporation Limited and State Power Investment Corporation Limited.

I went up and greeted him politely.

Holly and Wang Wei rarely met each other. I remember only seeing them twice in Hong Kong.

"Mr. Huo, long time no see," Wang Wei greeted with a smile.

"Long time no see, Mr. Wang." Holly joked, "You are too low-key. You are usually hard to find."

This is true.

He basically never appears in the public eye, rarely participates in economic activities, and quietly runs his business.

"It is enough for China to have Mr. Huo as an entrepreneur representative. We cannot compare with you," Wang Wei said in a joking tone.

Holly joked, “Then you have to work hard to catch up with me.

The big group eats from the same pot, and we have to stick together for warmth."

Wang Wei smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Zhong Shanshan then called out, "Mr. Huo."

Holly and he are now the two people competing most fiercely on the domestic wealth list.

It is widely rumored that Zhong Shanshan, who has been China's richest man for three consecutive years, will be surpassed by Holly this year.

Holly joked, "Boss Zhong, I didn't expect that the two of us, one old and one young, would become the people that the public likes to compare the most."

Zhong Shanshan followed with a smile and said, "Logically speaking, there is very little competition between us in business, but the general public sees us as their biggest rivals.

But having said that, it is also my honor to be considered as a rival by you, a business genius of the past century."

Holly waved his hand and smiled: "Mr. Zhong is too modest."

The two shook hands and walked into the venue together.

The chief ministers and major leaders stood at the entrance of the venue and shook hands with the entrepreneur representatives who came to attend the meeting today one by one, giving them enough respect and attention.

Holly sat down in his seat and found that the person sitting next to him was Professor Zhou, an economist from Peking University.

Anyone who understands China's economic development and reform will know his position.

Participated in the policy formulation of reform and opening up in the 1980s.

It has been many years since he appeared at such formal economic forums.

However, a speech he gave on the Internet two years ago was very influential. The theme of the speech was "The Only Way Out for China's Economy", and he also put forward the logic of economic reform.

Nowadays, there are not many economists like him who dare to speak out.

Inviting him to the symposium today also indirectly reflects the importance the country attaches to future economic development and reform.

Holly respectfully addressed the senior, "Hello, Mr. Zhou."

When Mr. Zhou heard someone calling him, he put away his pen, tilted his head to look at Holly, and was a little surprised. He smiled and stretched out his hand, saying, "Mr. Huo, I've heard a lot about you."
