"Monopoly on prestigious schools?" Lu Weiwei seemed to be shocked when she heard Xu Feng's words.
Before meeting Xu Feng, I had never thought about this problem.
Lu Weiwei believes that the reason why she has excellent grades is that she is gifted and belongs to the category of smart people.
After all, learning depends on talent, which seems normal to me.
But Xu Feng's words were like a thunderbolt, making him suddenly realize that besides smart people, there were actually ordinary people.
As for the idea that a small group of geniuses and urban middle-class children monopolize prestigious schools, this is a bit shocking to Lu Weiwei.
Knowing that Lu Weiwei would react like this, Xu Feng was not surprised. He just smiled slightly and explained:
"Don't be too surprised. What I said is also true. After all, ordinary middle-class children and ordinary children in the county receive different educations."
"If you put them together for the exam, what do you think the result will be? I guess you are not in the education industry and you won't know this question very well."
"I understand." Gu Chen drove the vehicle into the urban area, stopped at a traffic light intersection, and couldn't help but said:
"What you are talking about is actually due to the imbalance of educational resources. Although children in big cities take exactly the same courses as children in ordinary small counties, the disparity in teaching staff means that everyone is not on the same starting line."
"Yes, little brother is right." Seeing that Gu Chen had understood the essence, Xu Feng continued to explain:
"And because the tuition fees for these off-campus trainings are too high, after our institutions make money, they will have more resources to recruit teachers."
"So much so that the good teachers in this neighborhood have been completely uprooted, and public schools have become training centers for our institutions."
"These best educational resources are becoming resources for the rich step by step."
After a pause, Xu Feng also sighed quietly and said with a wry smile: "I'll give you an example. I'm talking about my competitor."
"The owner of this training institution was well-known in their physics training circle before. Moreover, this owner was a training instructor and a Ph.D. in physics."
"After this doctor graduated, he went to teach at a university. Of course, everyone knows that you can't make much money teaching at a university. In private, he will be a high school physics tutor for others."
"This guy's teaching was a mess at the beginning. After all, he is good at physics not because he has any unique skills, but because he has a good brain and is a genius."
Smiling, Xu Feng also said lightly: "But you also know that this brain is good, but this matter cannot be taught, so soon, he began to look for information everywhere to study how to improve his educational ability."
"I remember that guy read through foreign Khan Academy, educational journals, physics textbooks from various countries, etc. to learn from others' strengths."
"After all, his advantage is that he is very good at English and has a quick mind, so he quickly came up with a set of routines for explaining high school physics and how to deal with exams. The effect is amazing."
"Then what happened next?" Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, feeling that this doctor of physics really had a different way of thinking from ordinary people.
Especially when it comes to studying academics, I feel that I can beat many training institutions.
Xu Feng laughed twice and said with emotion: "Then? Later, this guy became more and more famous in the circle, and then he went to a small training institution, and he made millions in income this year."
"What? How many million in income a year?" Hearing this astronomical figure, Officer Wang couldn't help but be shocked and said: "Then why go to university to teach? With this kind of earning power, you can reach the pinnacle of life."
"But the wool comes from the sheep." When Gu Chen saw a green light ahead, he drove forward and reminded:
"This Physics Ph.D. can earn several million a year from a small training institution, so the tuition should not be cheap."
"Isn't that right?" Xu Feng sighed, also feeling quite disappointed: "I almost hired this guy to work at my training institution."
"But as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked me for an annual salary of several million, which almost scared me to death."
"You know, in the training institutions in Jiangnan City, there are only a handful of famous teachers who can earn more than one million yuan in annual salary, but this guy asked for millions as soon as he opened his mouth."
"At the time, I felt that his Ph.D. in Physics was only worth a lot, and maybe it could be used as a promotional selling point, but after all, it was a salary of several million a year. It made me feel a little distressed to think about it. You want to say that he asked me for more than a million to talk to him?
, I might still be able to agree."
"But for millions a year, I refused on the spot. But after this refusal, he was poached by another small training institution in minutes."
With a heavy sigh, Xu Feng felt helpless and complained to everyone in the car: "To be honest, if I had had the courage of that small training institution and dared to offer him an annual salary of several million, maybe my training
The organization has long been firmly positioned as the number one institution in Jiangnan City."
"What a pity. That guy was really a money-spinner back then. These students wanted to take his class, but they couldn't fall in love with the tuition of more than 100,000 yuan. Anyway, they could always pay for it."
"It is under this high incentive that more and more experts are joining this industry."
"Isn't that great?" Lu Weiwei grinned and explained, "Wouldn't this allow more people to have access to awesome exam technology?"
"No, no." Xu Feng shook his finger at Lu Weiwei, denying it and said, "Actually, it's not, because the exam... it's not about scientific research, it's not about expanding into unknown fields."
"We have been in the education industry for many years and understand the nature of the college entrance examination very well. The college entrance examination itself is actually a zero-sum game."
After a pause, Xu Feng gave Lu Weiwei an example: "For example, if some people are the first to equip Gatling guns in this game, it will be a unilateral massacre of others."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "And these Gatling guns mainly serve relatively wealthy people, so can you understand this logic?"
Gu Chen frowned, glanced at Xu Feng in the rearview mirror of the car, and couldn't help but sigh:
"If this situation is allowed to develop, off-campus institutions will be the real schools, and public schools will become decorations."
"In other words, our country maintains two sets of educational institutions. Those with money go to training institutions, and those without money go to public schools."
Smiling, Gu Chen also shook his head: "This is a bit like the United States on the other side of the ocean."
"That's right, so we still have to see the essential issue clearly." Xu Feng didn't seem to mind sharing industry secrets with everyone, and couldn't help but say:
"Take a student who was admitted to the 985 University after training at our training institution. He told us some time ago."
"He said that at their 985 University, there are about 30 students in a class, and only 3 students come from small counties, while the others...are all from medium-sized or above cities."
"So you have to know that when we went to college, most of the students in the class were from small places, and there were very few from big cities."
"On the whole, it is also distributed according to the proportion of population, but the education level in cities is much higher now."
"There are so many things added up. In a perverted training institution like ours, everyone takes the same test paper but receives education from different dimensions. You can actually imagine the effect."
"So I say, those who talk all day long about leaving a way for the grassroots gradually become empty words."
"This is a bit like our ancient Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a reason that the south is much better than the north in the imperial examinations."
"As for the reasons, there are many. For example, the south suffered less from the scourge of war, and many intellectual families have sufficient foundations."
"Even these intellectual families often have tens of thousands of books in their collections, and they also have libraries. There are people who have been officials in the imperial court in the past dynasties."
"Not only that, these people are also familiar with the imperial examination routines, and tutoring the children at home will naturally be a bonus."
"What's more important is that starting from the Song Dynasty, the economy of the south began to surpass that of the north. As a result, the south could devote more resources to the cause of raising children."
After a pause, Xu Feng wiped the remaining blood on his forehead and couldn't help but sigh: "Therefore, the proportion and number of children studying in the south far exceed those in the north."
"As for the number of teachers, it is an overwhelming advantage. The two provinces of Fujian and Zhejiang alone have more academies than the whole country."
"And the advantages of economic strength will be fed back to all levels, including education."
"I understand." Gu Chen nodded silently and agreed: "According to what you mean, in other words, throughout ancient history, the imperial examination has never been fair."
"As for those who are successful, they are basically from landlord families, or even better, if they are successful, their father will often be successful."
"So the probability of those truly poor people, like Fan Jin, is actually very low, even very, very low."
"Yes." Xu Feng grinned and nodded slightly: "Actually, my country's college entrance examination has always been one of the few very fair systems in the world."
"But after this system has been running for decades, obvious stratification will gradually begin to appear."
"Of course, there are many other reasons for the above-mentioned administration of our off-campus training institutions."
"For example, if you are a parent of a student and everyone in your class has gone to off-campus training, can you not be anxious? Naturally, you also want to go to training, which will invisibly increase the cost of education."
"That's right." After hearing Xu Feng's remarks, Officer Wang also intervened and said, "I remember some time ago, I heard a discussion among several neighbors in our community, saying that they didn't make up a single day of class, so they still went to 985."
"But when I gave birth to my child, I was determined not to make up any extra classes, but when I saw the whole class going to make up classes, I struggled for a while and completely collapsed. Finally, I chose to compromise and sent my child for training."
"Haha, right?" Seeing that Officer Wang said this, Xu Feng was even more proud. He spread his hands and said, "So what is involution? This is called involution."
Tapping the back of his right hand on his left palm, Xu Feng also said with an anxious look: "But the problem is, doesn't the country want to encourage population? One of the reasons why people don't want to have children now is that education funding is too high."
"And the education funds I'm talking about here, compulsory education actually doesn't cost much. The main thing is that make-up classes and school district housing account for the majority, and there is no cap on tuition."
"If you think about it, the tuition fees alone cost hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands a year. In fact, there are many people there."
"Such high education expenses, in turn, discourage young people from having children."
"I feel like I can't afford to give birth to a child, and I feel like I've given birth to a prop for others, so of course I don't want to give birth to a child."
"So in this sense, the higher-ups will take action sooner or later, and I have already encountered it."
"Haha." Listening to Xu Feng's impassioned speech, Officer Wang also smiled and said: "Principal Xu, since the education funding is so high, wouldn't it be good if you lower the cost?"
"No, no, do you think I don't want to? But I can't lower myself." Xu Feng raised his fingers and settled a small score with Officer Wang:
"Think about it, if I want to maintain the competitiveness of my training institution, do I have to recruit famous teachers?"
Seeing Officer Wang nodding silently, Xu Feng added: "To recruit famous teachers, I have to pay a high annual salary, right? Just like the Physics Ph.D. I told you before, my current competitor, he asked you how much money he asked for when he first opened his mouth.
Do you want to give me one million? I can’t give it if I don’t, the price is just there.”
"Even if you can't give me such a salary, if others can afford it, I can hire them and charge high tuition fees. I'm sure they'll make a profit without losing anything."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "And the more this happens, the more you have to pay high prices to hire famous teachers. Without famous teachers, your training institution will not be competitive, and it will slowly be eliminated.
disuse."
Taking a deep breath and trying to calm down, Xu Feng also said with a stressed face: "So our prices can't be lowered, and the fees are there."
"In this abnormal environment, the rising costs are quickly passed on to the students' parents, making the students' parents overwhelmed."
"So in this way, the wealthy urban middle class will quickly take advantage of it, and their children will already win at the starting line in this competition."
Seeing everyone in the car looking at him with strange eyes, Xu Feng shook his head and said seriously: "I know, some of you may be unhappy after saying this."
"Maybe you will say, our child is not good at physics and wants to use extracurricular time to make up for it. Is this a problem?"
Shaking his head, Xu Feng said in a gentle manner: "Actually, there is no problem, or in other words, it stands to reason that there is no problem."
"But it won't be as easy as it is now. Again, in fact, even if all training institutions are closed, there will still be people who spend money to hire tutors."
"As for the Physics Ph.D. I mentioned before, he used to teach one-to-one students, and then he started to hold training courses."
"If his training institution is also closed, then he has no university establishment now."
"And he has been doing training these years. He can't go back to college, and he can't go home and sit in a daze. He can only continue to work in this industry. No matter what the higher-ups say, it's impossible to ban all tutors, right?
?”
"It's too complicated." Lu Weiwei shook her head, feeling as if she had experienced a river and lake along the way.
I never thought that the road to college entrance examination would be so deeply involved.
I never thought that this unequal starting line has actually defeated most ordinary students.
Gu Chen also said with emotion: "If the superiors focus on rectifying the chaos of off-campus training, it will inevitably lead to insufficient profits for training institutions, and those teachers who have left the public system may come back again."
"And I also see that freedom and fairness are sometimes impossible to balance."
"If you want to benefit most people, you may have to remove some options so that everyone has no choice at all. Naturally, everyone will start from the same starting line."
"As for the United States that Principal Xu mentioned just now, in fact, if it were in the United States, this would not be a problem, because according to the logic there, who would you blame if you have no money? The United States even does not have compulsory education in the Chinese sense."
"If you are willing to go to a public school, the country will train you there, but if you don't want to go, no one will care about you."
"So America has two distinctive features, which is that the poorest people may not have gone to school at all."
"And the richest people, they may not actually have to go to school at all."
Glancing at Xu Feng who had his head smashed, Gu Chen also smiled faintly and said, "Just like the boss of your Tesla that had an accident. He directly set up a private school at his home in the United States and hired a bunch of teachers.
Educate your own children.”
"It can only be said that there has always been a spontaneous trend in this world, that is, superior resources and wealth will spontaneously and continuously concentrate at the top."
"The essence of these pursuits of fairness is actually to fight against this trend. The process will be very painful and full of twists and turns."
After a pause, Gu Chen added: "But I am honored that our country happens to care very much about the goal of fairness."
"Gu Chen." Officer Wang scratched his cheek and asked weakly: "In accordance with the development of our country's pursuit of fair education, do you think there is any development direction in the future? For example, many people talk about expanding university enrollment.
does it count?"
"Hmm..." Gu Chen was silent for two seconds, then turned around and said, "Actually, many people say that they want to expand university enrollment. You can understand this when you think about it. It just puts the problem back."
"Think about it, in the past when there were few college students, recruiting companies wanted college graduates or above."
"Later on, enrollment was expanded, and corporate recruitment required a bachelor's degree. Now it has expanded to more than 211."
"Even when some graduate students go for interviews, the first question the employer asks is...where did you get your undergraduate degree? Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Well, it's a bit." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Officer Wang also felt that it made sense.
But Gu Chen continued to add: "Actually, this is no joke. In order to reduce the cost of interviews, it is normal to draw a line and reduce the number of people."
"But in the future, we will gradually change the free-range status of technical schools and vocational schools. I remember before CCTV, there was a documentary about a vocational school that trained chefs. There is indeed a way. The chefs are very skilled, and they will also make the school's
The brand has also become tougher.”
"Although it is not a university, after graduation, students are even more popular than college students."
"You're not talking about New Oriental, are you?" Officer Wang reflexively blurted out.
