Everything is marked on the map, and the two retired car soldiers have driven small cars.
Ji Xiaoyue refused to let him go because he had to run a mountain road to deliver supplies to the newly designated golden monkey reserve. No one else had run this road, so it would not be appropriate to change people temporarily. But when going to the imperial capital, others had run it, at least
Be familiar with the route.
Tosiba didn't bring his T1000 with him, not because he was afraid of something going wrong on the road. But when it comes to research equipment, the Ninth Factory now counts the ones bought by Bai Hao, plus the ones that were cheated, picked up, exchanged, and this time from the beautiful country.
Brought back by Tosiba Laboratory.
Seriously speaking, no one in the entire Xia Kingdom has more, more complete, and higher-end equipment than here.
For such a long journey, Shi Guozhu not only brought food to the car, but also brought a blanket. There was a section of mountain road at night, and he was afraid that he would fall asleep in the back seat and get cold.
Of course, necessary safety guarantees are also in place.
From the designed route, even if there are some detours, all are on national highways. After all, national highways are still barely acceptable in this era.
Not only that, there are simple maintenance tools installed in the trunk, just in case the car breaks down on the road.
Bai Hao was quite confident that the car would not break down.
Taking advantage of the darkness, the group set out.
According to Shi Guozhong, it would be reliable for two cars to travel together for such a long journey, but let alone the existing cars, none of the small cars in Qinzhou could keep up with Bai Hao's car.
Cobras don't count.
That car can't run long distances because it consumes too much fuel. It's likely that it will have to go to a gas station whenever necessary.
Besides, that car is too picky about fuel.
Bai Hao's Cadillac is a diesel version, so he is not picky about food.
The car left Jingzhao and headed east first.
On the way, Qiao Lizhi said to Bai Hao: "Bai Hao, it's August now."
"Yeah." Bai Hao didn't quite understand how to bring this up.
Qiao Lizhi said: "There is something I want to tell you. It's not really important, but you need to know."
"You said."
Seeing how serious Qiao Lizhi was, Bai Hao couldn't help but become a little nervous.
Qiao Lizhi went on to say: "It's August, it's the holiday now, and basically all the students have left school. Although the rules have begun to loosen a little, the basic principle is still to make the best use of people's talents and obey the allocation."
Bai Hao understood.
He took out his cigarettes and threw a pack into the front row.
"Thank you, director." The two people in the front row thanked them and said nothing.
After Bai Hao handed one to Qiao Lizhi, Qiao Lizhi continued: "The school is still following the arrangements. Basically, the graduates and the units are matched one by one. This matter even includes the graduated students and the units where they settled.
They don’t have much choice.”
Bai Hao added: "It's like the blind marriage mentioned before."
"Haha." Qiao Lizhi laughed twice and sighed slightly: "That's what it means. Last year, the school received new instructions, targeted enrollment and targeted allocation. The focus began to shift toward agriculture, animal husbandry, mining, and oil. The so-called
The determination is the three determinations of school, major and employment.”
"I'm telling you this to understand that it's August. In fact, we secretly regrouped the college students we have in April. Some of them who are destined to be unable to be retained will be placed in general research, and some we will find ways to let them go to graduate school.
, studying for a Ph.D. Besides, for Ph.D.’s, those who can stay at the school after graduation will stay, and those who can’t will have no choice.”
Bai Hao quickly asked: "How much was lost?"
"Seventy percent."
"Seventy percent!" Bai Hao was shocked by this number.
Qiao Lizhi was calm: "If there were not those who continued to study for graduate students and Ph.D.s, I estimate that there would only be seven people left, not 30%."
Bai Hao scratched his head and felt an inexplicable pressure.
"Bai Hao."
"ah?"
Qiao Lizhi turned his head: "Bai Hao, I want you to enter the imperial capital together. I have another mission."
"You said."
"To rub your face, even if you are shameless this time, go to the Ministry of Industry to get an approval, and then go to the list. You know that this year, 1.46 million people passed the preliminaries, and were admitted
Only 480,000, that is, 71% failed to pass the exam."
Qiao Lizhi's tone became extremely serious: "It depends on whether you are only thinking about the present or the future. If you are thinking about the future, do you know what I am talking about?"
Bai Hao understood instantly: "I understand, I understand. The Ninth Factory is setting up a school."
"Yes, there is no possibility of factory-run universities, but there are still opportunities in technical schools or higher vocational schools."
Bai Hao said: "It depends on human factors. It's shameless anyway, so I just sit there and won't leave. If it doesn't work, there is another way. I can't set up an independent college that combines the Ninth Factory and the university."
"No." Qiao Lizhi directly rejected Bai Hao's idea: "The result is that all graduates will enter the Ninth Factory. Let me tell you this, our idea is to recruit a hundred people, and the real ones left behind
Nine people are enough, I believe there will be factories willing to take the rest."
"I understand, I understand." Bai Hao understood the meaning.
Qiao Lizhi added: "Let me tell you one more thing. You may know it, but you may also have ignored it. How was your sister's math score in the college entrance examination this year?"
"It's not that good, it's far worse than I imagined." After answering, Bai Hao understood.
"This year is miserable, extremely miserable. The national average score is 120 points, and the average score is 30 points. It shows how miserable it is, so this year a group of students with good quality basically have no chance of going to university."
Bai Hao said: "If you can't do math, we don't want it."
Qiao Lizhi didn't answer. In his opinion, Bai Hao really took this matter to his face. They would handle the matter of selecting people, and they could even take another exam.
While talking, the car has passed Huashan and continues eastward.
It was already late at night.
Imperial Capital.
In an old building, it's not really a conference room. The sofas are arranged in a complete circle. There are many people sitting here. If there was a smoke warning in this era, it would probably have gone off.
Everyone is sitting here smoking cigarettes one after another.
Finally, someone couldn't help but got up and opened the window. A gust of warm wind blew in, which actually made people feel refreshed.
Standing at the window, Bai Hui's immediate boss, Vice-Chancellor Jiang, spoke up: "My opinion is, no way. Don't even think about touching our Ministry of Industry's money. Besides, we have already generously given part of it to the Ministry of Finance."
, and also gave a part to the Ministry of Agriculture to allow them to import some technology and production resources for agricultural fertilizers and agricultural machinery. Why, people just want to cut a piece of it. It depends on whether we are rich or just want to be cheap."
"Old Jiang! You can't say that. Our school is poor and we really need it in order to improve the level of education."
Vice-Chief Jiang snorted coldly and pointed at the others: "Look, you say you are poor, the Ministry of Water and the Ministry of Transportation say they are rich. Look at me, why don't you cry about being poor?"
