Reborn in 1984: Starting with the Development of Chinese Character Cards, Chapter 111: China Also Needs to Develop "Industry-University-Research" Communication Division Initiated Several Projects at Once, Lu Jia Experienced Both Pain and Joy.
Every development team is severely understaffed.
Wujiang Group has been recruiting for years, but even so, it cannot meet its staffing needs.
Zhao Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Should he blame Wujiang Group for developing too fast? Or should he blame himself for having such a lucky break, establishing so many projects?
However, although these projects have been established, it will take several years before they yield results. If we don't prepare now and develop the technology, we'll at best become an assembly plant, earning a meager living while the lion's share of the profits goes to foreign countries.
...
"Liu Yinyin, make a list of the top 100 universities in China. Wujiang Group will donate a teaching building to each of them!!!"
Donating teaching buildings to universities has many benefits.
First, it's for the benefit of higher-ups; second, it's for the benefit of ordinary citizens; third, it's to cultivate goodwill with various prestigious universities; and fourth, it's to use a building within the university to promote Wujiang Group to students and win their favor.
During that period, one million could build a very nice and beautiful teaching building.
Donating teaching buildings to 100 universities would only cost 100 million RMB.
Zhao Ye felt it was well worth it for Wujiang Group to gain a good reputation and satisfy its superiors with such a small amount of money.
Wujiang Group is making too much money; if we don't donate some, we might incur resentment.
Donating money can be considered a way to protect oneself.
If you donate a lot, even if the government wants to slaughter a pig, it will have to think twice.
People might think, "Even a great philanthropist like Zhao Ye was slaughtered; how disheartening!"
Liu Yinyin paused for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Okay, boss."
Zhao Ye pondered for a moment, thinking that Wujiang Group lacked talent, but universities were teeming with talent. Abroad, the integration of industry, academia, and research was highly developed; why couldn't China do the same?
Zhao Ye's eyes lit up. Wujiang Group could leverage the technology from this donated teaching building to collaborate with various universities and play a significant role in "industry-academia-research" integration.
China is a vast country with abundant resources and a wealth of talent; it's just that these talents aren't in Wujiang Group.
Aren't universities and research institutions perfect partners for collaboration?
Universities and research institutions have talent, but lack research funding; Wujiang Group has money, but not enough talent.
Wujiang Group can collaborate with universities and research institutions, providing them with research and development funding to assist Wujiang Group in its research and development efforts, with a prior agreement that the research results belong to Wujiang Group.
Nowadays, universities in China are doing relatively well, with not too much of a shortage of educational funding. However, many research institutions in China are struggling to make ends meet.
If Wujiang Group is extending an olive branch, there's no reason not to accept it.
...
At 1:40 p.m., Liu Yinyin had already compiled a list of the top 100 universities in China, with detailed information for each university, such as its size, faculty resources, major departments, achievements, distinguished alumni, and so on.
Zhao Ye glanced at it briefly and had no objections.
At 9:30 a.m. the next day, Zhao Ye convened a meeting of the group's senior management.
"First of all, I want to say that Wujiang Group is facing a severe shortage of talent, so I plan to implement a 'industry-academia-research' program. What is 'industry-academia-research'?"
"Simply put, industry-academia-research collaboration refers to the cooperation between enterprises, research institutes and universities, with enterprises being the technology demanders and research institutes or universities being the technology suppliers."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone quickly understood Zhao Ye's idea.
"Wujiang Group gives money to universities and research institutions to help us develop technology—that's brilliant!!!"
"Boss, you're brilliant! This method is fantastic! It solves Wujiang Group's talent shortage in one fell swoop and helps the company accelerate its technological research and development!"
"..."
Everyone praised it highly.
Zhao Ye smiled and said it was just copying what others had already done; they had been doing it abroad for a long time.
He gestured for everyone to be quiet, then added, "There's another matter: we're donating a teaching building worth approximately 1 million RMB to one of the top 100 universities in China! Since Wujiang Group has made money, it's only right that we give back to the country! Mr. Wang, you'll be in charge of this!"
After speaking, Zhao Ye looked at Wang Anshi.
"Okay, boss, I guarantee I'll handle this perfectly!" Wang Anshi nodded and smiled.
"Okay, that's good! In a bit, Ms. Fu, as the company's spokesperson, will inform the media about our company's decision." Zhao Ye turned to Fu Xiaoyue and said.
"Okay, sure," Fu Xiaoyue nodded in response.
"Alright, that's settled then. The meeting is over. Everyone, go about your own business!" Zhao Ye announced, standing up first.
Fu Xiaoyue quickly contacted major media outlets and announced that day, as the company's spokesperson, that Wujiang Group would donate a teaching building to one hundred universities in China. At the same time, it would also cooperate with major universities and research institutions in China to create an "integrated industry-academia-research" model!
Wow, this news caused a sensation as soon as it came out.
The reporters were incredibly excited, frantically pressing their camera shutters to capture the moment.
That same day, some evening newspapers and television stations were the first to report on the matter.
In 1986, households with 10,000 yuan were extremely rare.
Wujiang Group's donation of 100 school buildings, worth 100 million RMB, is definitely breaking news.
As the news spread, it quickly sparked heated discussions across the country.
"Wujiang Group is really generous, donating 100 million RMB. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do that!"
