What is the country's strength?
It’s the number of chimneys, it’s steel production, it’s ship tonnage, it’s…
There are many kinds of things, but everything is human!
Talent is the most fundamental thing.
Take World War II as an example. If the population of Sandoku was not 80 million, but 180 million, the meat grinder on the Eastern Front would have exhausted the manpower of Sandoku.
When a country's human resources are exhausted, no matter how powerful its industrial power or advanced technology it is, it will be useless.
Because industrial machines need people to run them, war machines need people to operate them.
Without people, all this is empty talk.
Therefore, talent is the core of everything.
No one in this era knows this better than Emperor Zhu Da, because he lives in an era when the demographic dividend is about to be exhausted!
And for Ming Dynasty, what Ming Dynasty needs is people.
Therefore, from the day he landed in Nanhua in 1860, Emperor Zhu Da has been insisting on the plan to recruit people.
To attract people is actually to immigrate. The first batch of ships purchased by Nanhua were also for immigration.
Since the Nanhua era, immigration has been the top priority in all work. From the first one to the current 77 immigration ships, more than 100,000 Chinese immigrants arrive in the Ming Dynasty every month. It is the continuous flow of immigrants that laid the foundation for the Ming Dynasty.
The foundation of a strong nation.
It is important to introduce immigrants, and it is also very important to introduce talents. Since the company era, the company has hired a large number of European scholars and technicians. Even now, the Ming Dynasty's embassies in various European countries have an official who specializes in cutting leeks... No, it should be said to be recruitment.
academics and technicians.
"Come to Daming, Daming can give you a better research environment!"
"Come to Daming, Daming can give you better treatment..."
"Come to Ming Dynasty, Ming Dynasty can give you a teaching position!"
…
People are always realistic, especially for many young scholars. Compared with earning 20-30 pounds a month in Europe, many young scholars prefer to go to Ming Dynasty. They either teach in schools or work in
Enterprises engage in research or direct production in factories.
In short, their knowledge can bring better returns in Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty's embassies in various European countries, there are always young people queuing up to apply for jobs and visas. And after the college graduation season, this phenomenon becomes even more common. Because not everyone can find something that satisfies them.
work.
As usual, just after nine o'clock in the morning, there was already a long queue in the lobby on the first floor of the embassy. Young people in suits and ties all looked up expectantly, waiting for the initial screening.
"Sir, I studied law at the University of Victoria. I..."
Shi Junjie answered directly without even waiting for the other party to finish speaking.
"Sorry, there are no more legal positions!"
law?
Why don't you study literature? Go to Ming Dynasty to teach English literature?
What does Ming Dynasty need?
Of course they are engineers. People who study mechanics, chemistry, shipbuilding, metallurgy, mathematics, etc. In short, there is definitely no need to study literature or law. Talents in this area are not in short supply.
"Next person."
During the whole process, he didn't even raise his head to look at the person coming. It wasn't that he looked down upon him, but it was simply unnecessary.
"Sir, this is my diploma. I graduated from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Manchester..."
Very good. He raised his head and glanced at the young man in front of him. Shi Junjie looked through his graduation certificate and corresponding materials, and then gave him a form directly.
"After filling it out, go to the visa officer for further review."
Why further review is needed, because Daming does not need people who are "faking things". The visa officer will conduct some tests on him. Of course, how can he get a letter of recommendation from a well-known scholar, everything will be very simple.
What Ming Dynasty needs is talents, not mediocrity!
In this way, Shi Junjie reviewed the applicants' information one by one. As long as they graduated from majors that meet the "Introduction of Talent List", they can get the opportunity to be interviewed. Otherwise, they will not even have the opportunity to be interviewed.
At the visa interviewer, all these British people were as docile as little sheep, and they didn't even dare to express their anger for fear of being refused a visa.
Daming’s visa is very valuable!
"Getting a visa from Da Ming means that your life will be smooth from now on. When our classmates and alumni are still running around for life, renting in attics and eating cold bread, we in Da Ming can not only get a
A decent and well-paying job, and you can also live in a big house, Tang Sheng, you must try it..."
Rutherford's friend explained the various benefits of the Ming Dynasty in a low voice. He was not tall, and he looked forward from time to time, counting how many people were ahead.
"However, you have to remember that you must not say that you studied literature, but that you studied civil engineering in Germany."
As Rutherford warned, Tang Sheng looked around curiously. As early as when he was studying in Germany, he had heard about the Ming Dynasty - it was the Ming Dynasty's expeditionary force that made Germany hate France. After returning to England from Germany, he
After entering the University of Edinburgh and concentrating on academics, he has always been curious about the Ming Dynasty. If not for the persuasion of his friends, even if he came here, he would have waited until he obtained a master's degree.
However, a degree in literature... doesn't seem to be what Ming Dynasty needs.
Finally, when it was Rutherford's turn, he was a little nervous and handed over the materials respectfully.
"Sir, this is my diploma. I studied Civil Engineering at the University of Edinburgh. This is a letter of recommendation written by my professor."
Graduation certificates and letters of recommendation are all materials they need to provide when looking for a job. However, for young people like Rutherford who come from ordinary families, the thought of a good job is simply a dream. A good job has long been eliminated.
If a person from a good family background or someone with support is occupied, it has nothing to do with him.
"University of Edinburgh? In Scotland? Civil engineering experts? Let me take a look..."
After waiting for more than ten minutes, watching the examiner review the materials without saying a word, Rutherford was extremely nervous. It was not until the examiner took out his seal and stamped it on the form with a "click" that he finally felt relieved.
Breathe a sigh of relief.
"I passed, I passed!"
Seeing this man's happy look, Shi Junjie smiled.
"Don't be so happy yet, this is just the first level,"
"I know, I know, thank you sir, thank you!"
Rutherford's face was filled with joy. He looked like he had won a million-dollar jackpot. I don't know if it was a million dollars, but from the envious eyes of the people around him, I knew that this was definitely a jackpot in life.
"Next person……"
Shi Junjie's words suddenly stopped and he looked at the young man standing in front of him.
"Hello, this is my diploma. I studied literature at the University of Edinburgh..."
It’s over!
At this moment, the smile on Rutherford's face disappeared. Tang Sheng could not go to Ming Dynasty, and the same was true for everyone else.
A student who studies literature will definitely not be able to pass.
"Uh... Tang Sheng? Can you speak Chinese?"
Shi Junjie asked after taking a look at the young man in front of him.
This guy clearly looks Chinese, right?
"I grew up in Penang, Nanyang. I can speak Cantonese, but I can't speak..."
Tang Sheng's answer made Shi Junjie feel a bit dumbfounded.
"Since we are compatriots, why are you waiting here for so long? Yes, what is your name..."
"My name is Gu Hongming."
Tang Sheng, no, Gu Hongming said his name that has not been used for ten years.
"The surname is Gu? It's rare!"
After saying that, he turned his head and handed the materials to his colleague at the next window.
"Hey, Zhao Han, I'm a compatriot. He graduated from the University of Edinburgh. It's very rare. But he doesn't speak Mandarin. Take a look. If there's no problem, just apply for the visa directly."
It was as if he was afraid that the other party would not understand the official language he was speaking. He emphasized it again.
"If I hadn't asked, I would have been able to get the visa approved."
What?
It was Shitherford and the others' turn to be dumbfounded. They had to go through five levels and defeat six generals, but this guy, he, he actually signed it directly!
Is there such blatant self-seeking fraud? What is so special about this guy?
"Sir, doesn't he need to be reviewed?"
When it was the next person's turn, the person asked with some confusion.
"You are different!"
Shi Junjie said directly.
"He is a compatriot with us! He is completely different from you. Of course we have to take care of our compatriots. The world is not as big as our compatriots."
When he said this, he didn't think it was a big deal, it was completely natural.
"Okay, next one."
What? Now it was the guy's turn to be dumbfounded... Why was I eliminated?
Why was it eliminated.
Go home and reflect!
