Wasteland Development Diary

Zhou Yi convened the annual meeting in early spring, requiring the heads of all departments and consultants to attend.

“In the past five years, we have mainly done two things.”

“The first thing is to achieve self-sufficiency on the land of Sandport.”

He smiled and looked at everyone: “The company has been cultivating the land year after year and continuously investing in agriculture. Now our cultivated land includes both traditional farmland and the continuously growing suspended layers.”

“The grain produced by the company is enough to cover the entire 60,000 people in Sandport, ensuring that everyone will not go hungry. Based on this, we have also expanded some food varieties and improved everyone’s dietary standards.”

“The second thing is to establish a development alliance, uniting nearby areas together to form close cooperation in trade, technology, economy, and other fields.”

“This allows our goods to go to all parts of the world, and also lets people all over the world know about the existence of our Wasteland Development Company.”

“In the new five years, we have two new goals.”

Zhou Yi raised the index finger of his right prosthetic hand: “The first goal is to start an education事业, to establish our schools in Sandport, from basic education to higher education. This is not easy, but we must do it.”

“Education can transmit knowledge and experience, cultivate various skills, improve thinking and cognitive abilities, and cultivate talents in various industries. This is crucial for both existing employees and everyone’s children.”

“In addition, education can enhance creativity and innovation awareness, and improve everyone’s participation and initiative in public affairs, which is of great significance for improving the company and Sandport.”

He raised his middle finger: “The second goal is to go out.”

“The company will encourage and provide employees with high-paying opportunities for foreign assignments. Everyone should enter other organizations and cities to learn, learn from others’ advanced experience and good things, and also learn from the pits others have stepped into and the lessons they have suffered.”

“The company must further open its eyes to see the world. We must go to understand what is happening outside, what most people need, and then our company must be committed to finding solutions to try to solve the problems of most people.”

“Here, I hope everyone will remain humble and learn about how other organizations operate, with the attitude of a learner and a latecomer. Never be blinded and arrogant by our current seemingly good situation. The world is big, and there are many capable people. Let us have the heart of an apprentice.”

“This is the new five-year plan.”

Zhou Yi had been thinking about the plan intermittently for more than half a year.

There were too many things to do and should be done.

But we still have to grasp the core.

Education can no longer be delayed, the sooner the better.

Now that the economic foundation has been laid, a large number of people are continuing to migrate to Sandport, and the company is also well-known, so recruiting teachers in various industries is no longer difficult.

Going out is the prerequisite for the company to go further.

The company needs more employees to learn to stand alone, so they must be allowed to go out, broaden their horizons, and increase their knowledge. They must be allowed to negotiate, cooperate, and even have disputes with other organizations, and use practice to hone their will and ability to solve problems.

Branch offices of the company should be established in other cities to facilitate understanding of the local area and find opportunities.

Zhou Yi also needs to build his own intelligence network.

Every employee sent abroad is a source of information for the company. They will continue to provide the most authentic and reliable information to facilitate the company’s decisions that are more in line with the actual situation.

Zhou Yi also learned this from the Sea Lords.

The Sea Lords send out a large number of liaison officers, who buy people’s hearts in various cities and establish their own connections, so as to obtain first-hand information and spread favorable intelligence for their cities.

“Cao Dayuan.”

“Present.”

Zhou Yi looked at this man who had been coordinating residents in Emerald City: “Everyone trusts you, you will be the director of foreign assignments.”

“You will be responsible for the foreign study and establishment of offices in various departments of the company. Each department must send people to study and exchange abroad every year. For cooperation, find Red Falcon, who has the contact information of various organizations.”

“Ah? Me?”

Cao Dayuan showed a somewhat embarrassed expression: “Chairman, I haven’t done this job before, it feels very complicated.”

“It’s not complicated at all.”

Zhou Yi told him: “Remember when you took people to Sandport to hand out leaflets and then brought the scavengers over? It’s the same thing. What you have to do is to take our people out and bring them back. If you can find outside talents to poach, that would be even better.”

Cao Dayuan said, “Oh, if you put it that way, I understand. Don’t worry, I will definitely do this well.”

“Also, Lao Cao, don’t be stingy with the funds. When you are out, sometimes you have to spend money to avoid disaster, which can reduce a lot of trouble.”

Zhou Yi reminded: “Come to me if you are short of money, I will give it to you.”

“Okay!”

Cao Dayuan grinned and said: “As long as you give me the funds, I will definitely handle this matter properly.”

In terms of education, there is no suitable person to lead the way.

Zhou Yi decided to do it himself first.

He thought for a while: “In terms of education, the Mushroom Forest has been piloting for a while. Teacher Diamond has done a good job. Follow the methods it has explored and establish the Mushroom Forest Primary School first. Let the children of all company employees who are 7 years old and above go to study. This is compulsory education, and the education expenses will be reimbursed by the company.”

Diamond, the electromechanical teacher who attended the meeting, said: “Chairman, there is a serious shortage of teachers. Currently, there are only me and Sun Chonglai.”

“If we fully open it up, according to the company’s 4,000 employees, there will be at least 200 school-age children. The Mushroom Forest is really short-handed and urgently needs to increase the number of teachers.”

“In order to maintain a good teaching effect, the teacher-student ratio should not be lower than 1:25, and at least 8 teachers are needed. In addition, the venue and equipment also need to be improved.”

Zhou Yi nodded.

This is indeed a problem.

“Does anyone have any suggestions on recruiting teachers?”

Everyone couldn’t say why.

Education is an expensive and scarce resource in all cities.

Qian Su was the first to speak: “Chairman, there are many teachers in the Hundred Schools Plateau, why don’t we recruit people from there?”

Old engineer Liu Fusheng shook his head: “We can’t all come from there. There are indeed many professional teachers in the Hundred Schools Plateau, but there is also a problem there. They will require everything to be done according to the rules of the Hundred Schools Plateau, that is, to copy everything.”

“The Craftsmen’s Guild has tried it before, recruiting teachers from there to train young apprentices, but the result was not good.”

“At least in terms of craftsmanship, the Hundred Schools Plateau only values theory, and the practice is very poor. They are very strong in test questions, but they are not very good at participating in actual manufacturing and polishing.”

Zhou Yi thought.

Education and training are like this, the measuring standard is scores.

It is not easy to engage in high-quality education.

Gong Zheng looked hesitant, but finally spoke: “Chairman, I was born as a Fangshi apprentice. The Fangshi’s training method actually has its merits.”

“You can become an apprentice at the age of 10, and you will join the specific affairs of the Fangshi very early. Although you are doing chores, copying, and some simple experimental steps, it is very helpful for apprentices to understand a lot of knowledge.”

“I think the Fangshi’s education method can be used as a reference.”

Teacher Diamond also said: “That’s right. We are also teaching knowledge while trying to let students enter actual production and participate in specific affairs to test and experiment.”

Zhou Yi wrote it down in his notebook.

In this wasteland era, a 10-year-old child is considered a labor force and has to learn and work at the same time.

Red Falcon said: “Education is a highly professional industry. If you don’t have relevant experience, you will go into many wrong paths and misunderstandings. The cost of trial and error is very high and will affect many young children.”

“I suggest that we choose high-quality professionals with a good reputation.”

There are professional teachers in the electromechanical city.

The five major centers all have high-quality educational resources.

But Zhou Yi is currently standing on the side of the electromechanical knights, and the company is still being sanctioned. It is basically impossible to find high-level teachers and professionals there.

He also asked Extinction Duke if the Celestial Empire had any good ways.

After all, as the only empire with the largest population and the widest territory in the world, the scale is there, and the education is not too bad.

Extinction Duke said: “You are thinking too much.”

“Within the Celestial Empire, only citizens of the Celestial Empire can receive education. Foreigners or informal citizens cannot enter schools.”

“Education is a tool for the distribution of power. Only those who receive education have the possibility of mastering power. The Celestial Empire will not give opportunities to pariahs, and civilians can learn very limited things.”

“After primary school, ordinary people cannot afford the cost of middle and high schools, which is at least 1 million mushrooms a year.”

“That’s why so many people go to the Hundred Schools Plateau, because it’s cheap, and learning a skill can also make a living.”

“In the Celestial Empire, teachers have a very high status, good income, and a comfortable life.”

“In addition, the Celestial Empire prohibits teachers from teaching outside, because this is the outflow of knowledge from the Celestial Empire, which will damage the interests of the empire. Strictly speaking, Celestial Empire teachers can only teach students within the Celestial Empire. Teaching in other places violates the laws of the empire, and will definitely be severely punished as long as it is investigated.”

Extinction Duke’s words made Zhou Yi feel helpless and had to give up.

The Celestial Empire grasps education tightly and firmly.

Recruiting reliable teachers is not an easy task.

In the silence of the crowd, Yuanxiao next to him suddenly said: “Chairman, the Dragon Palace in the Forbidden Continent has talents with sufficient professionalism.”

“Dragon Palace’s further studies are very strict. If you can successfully complete the practice, it means that you have a high degree of mastery in a certain aspect.”

Zhou Yi stared at the Death Angel.

Yuanxiao looked calm and clear: “I have investigated the Dragon Palace before. The trainees who have completed the stage of practice there, whether they are descendants of dragons or not, have a natural tendency and interest in spreading knowledge.”

“If you don’t consider spreading the concept of dragons, in their professional fields, they are very good teachers, no worse than teachers from any other place.”

“If you want to find excellent teachers to ensure quality, I think that is a direction to consider.”

Zhou Yi pondered for a while.

Don’t say it.

The Dragon Palace is a university. After graduating from university, at least they are undergraduates. In this era, they are already considered high-quality talents.

On the Forbidden Continent, the Lord of War has also been inviting to go.

His right hand may be able to grow back through him by lifting the lock again.

The Spark Plains of the Electric Cat settlement are also there.

Now the external situation is relatively stable, and the complete establishment and spread of the [Legal Principles] front takes time.

It is indeed worth considering a trip.
