Chapter 861 Local Talent
Now that they have all arrived in Singapore, Meng Qian will inevitably take a tour of Southeast Asia.
The recent Southeast Asia is still very interesting. It has begun to enter a period of rapid economic development. The market predicts that the annual growth rate of the Southeast Asian economy in the next few years is conservatively estimated to be more than 5.4%. When the economy improves, they will naturally pay more attention to talents and technological development.
Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines and other countries have successively shouted slogans similar to the power of science and technology, vigorously develop science and technology, and attach importance to innovation and creation. In 2017, the investment in science and technology in Southeast Asia tripled compared with 2016, and the whole world began to pay more attention This place in Southeast Asia.
But the foundation is weak after all. Southeast Asia is now in the same predicament as China was in the early years, and there are not enough talents.
There are a lot of projects that I want to work on, but I can’t find any talents at all. Or more precisely, there are talents, but they all go abroad, and those who stay in China are basically working for foreign companies.
For example, with the Southeast Asian University, which has the deepest support for talents training, the neon country enterprises, all the talents trained go to work in the neon country enterprises.
In addition, the largest scientific and technological innovation support fund in Southeast Asia is the Dafeng Science and Technology Fund. The Dafeng Science and Technology Fund has trained a large number of Southeast Asian talents, and then these talents have also gone to work in the Dafeng Group or companies under the Dafeng Group.
But in comparison, Dafeng Group’s technology innovation fund is more popular in Southeast Asian countries, because at least it has helped Southeast Asia create many local technology innovation companies, and these companies have cultivated many local talents.
Moreover, Meng Qian invested very early, starting in 2000. At that time, no one was optimistic about the technology in Southeast Asia. Meng Qian helped them lay a pretty good foundation.
This also gave Dafeng Group a very good reputation in this region. In the past few years, every time Meng Qian came to Southeast Asia, he was always regarded as a guest of honor.
And Meng Qian's visit to Southeast Asia this time is to talk to them about talent issues.
Compared with Neon Country and Huaxia, most of the talents in Southeast Asia still go to the United States, and from the market research, Southeast Asian students have a very high degree of recognition of the United States.
Until a series of things happened this year, this phenomenon has undergone some changes.
Meng Qian first came to Thailand, where he is most familiar. When talking with the representative of Thailand, Meng Qian directly stated, "West Lake University has applied to join the Asian University Alliance."
The Asian University Alliance was initiated by Tsinghua University in April 2017 with 15 universities in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia. Its purpose is to strengthen scientific research cooperation among universities in Asia and encourage students to stay in Asia.
In 2017, the attractiveness of Huaxia University is definitely not comparable to that of Omi University, but it is still the same sentence, because a series of practices in the United States have been helping Huaxia establish global influence, and it is an all-round global influence.
Thailand knew in advance that Meng Qian was here mainly to talk about education, so he brought several domestic education experts to the scene and asked them to talk to Meng Qian.
"After West Lake University enters the Asian University Alliance, does Mr. Meng have any plans?"
"Bring over the business research model."
"Business research?" Thailand seemed a little surprised.
Meng Qian smiled slightly, "What do you guys think of the business research education model I proposed?"
"It can be said that business studies are cultivating higher-quality top talents for this society."
Meng Qian, an education expert in Thailand, is not surprised that he has such a view.
The business studies proposed by Meng Qian are currently viewed by most people as a teaching model for high-end talents. After all, the Lions Alliance is a world-class university, and the companies it cooperates with are all Fortune 500 companies.
Meng Qian's business research model is defined by many people as the future of comprehensive education for high-end talents.
But what Meng Qian wants to express today is that business research is not limited to high-end talents.
"The essence of business research is actually the combination of school education and workplace education, but it pays more attention to scientific research, so when we build the business research education model, we really consider first-class talents and first-class schools.
However, this society can be said to be led by first-class talents, but it is definitely not created by first-class talents, but by everyone who is living seriously.
For example, the shortage of talents under the rapid economic development of Thailand in the past two years is not only high-end talents, but the disconnection of talents from top to bottom.
In fact, almost ten years ago, we in Huaxia also experienced such a situation. At that time, to be honest, no matter how hard you tried to cultivate high-end talents, it was difficult, because no matter how many high-end talents you cultivated, basically they all went to the United States anyway. . "
Many people couldn't help but smile wryly, isn't it? For many years, the whole world has been cultivating talents for the United States.
"So at that time I invested in a training institution of my good friend and started the experiment of professional education.
Everyone should know about the dual education system in Germany, right? "
"Of course, it can be said that this is the core trump card of Germany's talent cultivation."
Germany’s dual education model is an education model that puts school education and workplace education together. There are many kinds of teaching modes. Anyway, basically most of the time is spent in the company, and a small part of the time is spent in school, and then through learning on both sides , Generally, after about 3 years of study time, you will be a professional person who can directly mature and take up the job.
Compared with those who come out of regular colleges, this kind of students can produce value earlier, and it is easier to match the employment direction.
In fact, it can be compared to vocational technical schools in China, but the dual education model in Germany is very perfect, and domestic vocational technical schools cannot be compared at all.
"Germany's dual education model has been developed for a long time, and it is certainly not easy to replicate in a short period of time, but our vocational training is very easy to replicate.
This is because our training institutions have firstly expanded enough cooperative enterprises and have rich experience in docking and cooperating with schools. More importantly, our vocational training institutions are not like the dual system of education in Germany because they are almost the foundation of the country and require Comprehensive consideration of national recognition, social recognition and other issues, on the contrary, our vocational training institution is a purely commercial institution in a sense.
Opening a chain institution is the most direct copy.
It can be said that vocational training institutions are ready-made, enterprises are ready-made, and the Asian University Alliance is also ready-made. We only need to connect the three to enterprises, and things can move forward. This is essentially a business research model.
Moreover, our development in Huaxia over the years has actually promoted the progress of our Huaxia Vocational and Technical School to a certain extent, which is an advantage in the long run. "
"Since it is a training institution invested by Mr. Meng, the cooperation with Dafeng Group must be the most mature?"
Meng Qian heard the implication, and said bluntly, "Vocational training institutions follow the positions that the society needs, and never follow a certain company.
I just forgot to say that if we want to replicate in Southeast Asia now, we will have the greatest advantage, because the companies our training institutions cooperate with are mainly Chinese companies and Asian companies, and more and more of these companies are starting to invest in Southeast Asia. , our resource docking is very convenient. "
Thailand's worries. Meng Qian is very clear. What they are worried about now is that the talents in Thailand will eventually become the labor force of Dafeng Group.
Seeing that everyone was still worried, Meng Qian simply put his words more bluntly, "Actually, I can take a path that is more beneficial to me. According to the needs of the Dafeng Group, I will go to universities in Thailand to train the talents we want. On this point, we It's not impossible.
But some of the troubles that Asian students encounter now are the troubles of Thailand, the troubles of China, and the troubles of everyone. Just like what the Asian University Alliance said when it was established, the alliance hopes to keep Asian students in Asia, not in specific country.
I want my talents, I have too many ways, I can even send another video to invite talents from all over the world to work in Dafeng Group.
I came here today to talk about this matter with you, just to make a suggestion, whether you listen to it or not is your business. "
Meng Qian's sudden tough attitude made them panic, "Mr. Meng misunderstood, we are also thinking about how to make this model better, as you said, the German model cannot be replicated overnight, but Longer term, we hope to get there in the future."
"Everyone, I don't mind telling you what my selfishness is. My selfishness is that I am very optimistic about the future development of Thailand, so I will definitely increase my investment in Thailand in the future, so of course I don't want my investment in Thailand to In vain.
The development of Thai talents, the development of Thai technology, and the development of Thailand's economy are good things for people like me who value the Thai market.
What I want is a win-win situation. You want talents, and I want talents, and what we want is more talents. Only when we cooperate and create a good environment together, can we quickly cultivate more talents, and we can get greater good.
After all, it is completely meaningless for me to suppress the technological development of Southeast Asian countries. It is too late for me to be happy when everyone develops together. "
As someone who has been here, Meng Qian knows exactly what the Southeast Asian countries want at this time. What they want is more local talents, and more local talents who can stay in the country. As long as you can help them achieve this goal, you will get more points from Dafeng Group What is talent?
Meng Qian's aggressive and sincere negotiation method allayed a lot of concerns of the Thai delegation, and everyone hurriedly raised their glasses to toast Meng Qian.
