City: World's No. 1 College

Early November.

Yenching University.

Principal's office.

Li Yi is visiting Hao Ping, his former principal.

Although he is now the president of Xingyun University, his alma mater, Yanda, has always held a heavy weight in his heart.

Hao Ping poured Li Yi a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Li Yi, the last time we met was at the 125th anniversary celebration of Yan University in May? You were only the principal of Xingyun Middle School at that time."

"Yeah. 35

Li Yi nodded and said sincerely: "After I became the president of the university, I really realized that university management and high school management are completely different things.

Hao Xiao, I came here on purpose this time to ask you about the way of university development. "

Hao Ping smiled and waved her hand: "What - what to ask for advice or not.

In just 2 months, Nebula University has won hundreds of championships in various competitions for college students across the country.

The rise of Xingda University has shocked the university education circle.

You are really excellent.

Li Yi shook his head humbly: "Xiao Hao, you are wrong. The champions of these competitions, in front of the top schools, actually don't have much gold."

Hao Ping took a sip of her tea and said, "You are right, and you are wrong. 99

"Want to hear about it!" Li Yi asked.

Hao Ping said slowly: "In May, Yanda celebrated its 125th anniversary, and numerous Yanda alumni came.

In addition to leaders, guests, scientists, and outstanding alumni of Yan University, 116 presidents of internationally renowned universities from 44 countries and regions came.

All the principals of the top 20 schools in the world were present.

In addition, the presidents of 130 Xiaguo universities who participated in the international seminar on double-first-class construction were also present.

Mr. Li, who is a mother, donated 660 million yuan to Yanda.

What does this mean?

A university needs time to settle and history to settle.

Nebula University is excellent, the only thing missing is the background.

And this thing, it is difficult to make up for it in a short time.

The various honors that Xingda won last month cannot essentially make up for Xingda's heritage.

Hearing this, Li Yi nodded slightly.

This question has been bothering him recently.

The main mission requires that Nebula University be ranked among the top 100 universities in the country within one year.

He can only desperately race against time to grab whatever he can.

Hao Ping continued: "Li Yi, I have heard a little about your deeds some time ago.

School lottery, teachers equipped with luxury cars, free experience of entertainment facilities, etc., although students and teachers can increase the sense of belonging to the school, but this is not a long-term solution.

I would still like you to focus on academic research, number of papers, research reputation, etc.

The top universities in China run education and make money.

You keep losing money, what's the matter?'

Hearing this, Li Yi looked a little embarrassed.

Nebula University has been established for more than 2 months and has spent more than 2 billion yuan.

Income and expenditure are seriously unbalanced!

Hao Ping smiled and said, "Li Yi, let me tell you about Yanda's financial structure.

Last year, Yanda's total revenue was 22.1 billion yuan, second only to Zhejiang University's 22.8 billion yuan and Huaqing University's 31.7 billion yuan, ranking third in the country.

General public budget appropriation revenue, Yan University is 4.46 billion yuan a year.

The income from education and scientific research is 8 billion yuan a year at Yanda University.

In terms of investment income, donation income, rental income, etc., Yanda's annual income is 3.75 billion yuan.

Li Yi was not surprised to hear this data.

As early as more than 30 years ago, Yanda invested in the establishment of Founder Group, owning 70% of the shares.

The Founder Group now has a net worth of more than 60 billion yuan.

The profit of the group is good, and Yanda's income will naturally increase.

Of course, these incomes from Yenching University will eventually be used for school construction to ensure educational resources in scientific research, equipment, materials and other aspects.

Hao Ping continued: "The more top-tier universities are, the more they need massive educational resources.

To this end, the Alumni Fund came into being.

Harvard Alumni Fund, with assets of up to 38.3 billion US dollars.

The nine-school fund of the University of Texas system has assets of up to 30.9 billion US dollars.

The Yale University Alumni Fund has assets of $29.4 billion.

Stanford University Alumni Fund, with assets of up to 26.5 billion US dollars.

The Princeton University Alumni Fund has assets of up to $26 billion.

The MIT Alumni Fund has assets of up to $16.5 billion.

Our domestic universities have also established various foundations.

Such as Huaqing University Education Foundation, Yenching University Education Foundation, Zhejiang University Education Foundation and so on.

Hearing this, Li Yi nodded solemnly.

These top universities in the world and top universities in China have established their own fund institutions.

0.. ask for flowers.....

Although the alumni foundation does not represent the wealth of the school, it provides financial aid to outstanding students every year, provides favorable conditions to attract the best professors, can create powerful laboratories, expand campuses, and renovate infrastructure...

These top schools never have to worry about school closures!

On the other hand, the foundation of Nebula University is still shallow, and if his management is unfavorable, there is indeed the possibility of bankruptcy.

The more Li Yi develops the university, the more he feels that the university's waters are bottomless, far from being as simple as managing a middle school.

With a sincere expression on his face, he said: "Xiao Hao, listening to you today is really better than reading ten years of books.

Hao Ping smiled and waved her hand: "Where, where, our group of college principals may be very beautiful in the eyes of others.

In fact, I am very anxious. The documents above are like the sea, and the things below are like sand. Opportunities and risks coexist.

On the contrary, I am very envious of your privately-run Xingyun University, who is alone, 2 billion will be given away. 995

Li Yi said embarrassedly, "I've made Principal Hao laugh, and I'm out of options at the moment.

Hao Ping said seriously: "Li Yi, you are a graduate of Yenching University in 2021.

As a principal, I am really proud to see what you have achieved today.

Yenching University is also proud of you!

All in all, the current development goal of Xingyun University is to vigorously support individual scientific research activities and encourage students to innovate in knowledge.

Blindly improving the welfare of students will not change the fact that Nebula University is weak.

A few years ago, President Zheng Qiang once said something like this.

When a person pursues the necessities of life, he is often diligent and brave.

When a person pursues the consumer goods of life, he tends to become lazy and gentle.

When a person pursues the luxuries of life, the person becomes weak.

A country, a nation, a family, a unit, a person, the more luxury goods, the more willing to use the surplus wealth instead of guarding the wealth at the cost of his own life.

The same applies to Nebula University, Nebula students, and even you.

"I understand!" Li Yi nodded solemnly.

Hao Ping finally said: "A hundred years ago, President Cai of Yanda University made such a speech in his inaugural speech.

Great scholars and those who study advanced knowledge.

University students should take academic research as their vocation, and should not take the university as a ladder for promotion and fortune.

Now, I give this to you.

I hope you and I can encourage each other!" Go.
