The rise of nanometers

Chapter 580 New Countryside (4)

The reasons for Tianzhu’s economic collapse are complex.

There are both economic downturns in the global environment and huge internal conflicts.

The last reason is that they have no pricing power. Whether it is the pricing power of industrial products or the pricing power of raw materials and energy, they do not have any pricing power in their hands.

In terms of ores and energy, Greater China is constantly harvesting. For iron ore alone, since the year before last, the price has increased from 1,873 Chinese dollars per ton to about 3,557 Chinese dollars this year.

In terms of energy, due to the current tense situation in West Asia and the deliberate manipulation of crude oil and natural gas prices by the Energy Alliance, Tianzhu has suffered several big losses.

On the other hand, as the world's largest rice exporting region, they also have no pricing power. Compared with ABCD, the Grain Alliance has stronger control capabilities.

Because Grain Alliance is the world's largest grain producer and the world's largest grain processor, and it also has the world's largest market.

Greater China, Northeast Asia, and Southeast Asia are all densely populated areas, especially when it comes to rice. About 70% of the world's rice consumers are here.

As a result, the pricing power of rice is naturally in the hands of the Grain Alliance. Even ABCD has no way to resist the Grain Alliance here, let alone Tianzhu, which is agriculturally fragile.

Sure enough, amid the price roller coaster of rising and falling prices, Tianzhu's rice planting industry suffered a huge blow, causing many farmers to go bankrupt.

The rice planting area has also seen huge fluctuations. In fact, from the perspective of per capita arable area, Tianzhu’s planting area and water and heat conditions are better than those in Greater China.

However, the land in Tianzhu is private, and they have no resistance to chemical fertilizers, agricultural machinery, pesticides, and seeds.

The combination of these circumstances has led to a big problem, that is, the cost of planting remains high, but the export price is so low that we lose about 15 to 30% of the money.

Without profits, farmers will naturally not plant food crops on a large scale, which will lead to an expansion of the domestic food gap.

Food is the foundation of stability. Without food, all the hype about other things is useless.

Various factors were combined, and huge civil strife broke out in Tianzhu under the repeated attacks of economic crisis and food crisis.

The Assam rebellion that Bai Hao and the others talked about was actually just a typical landmark event. Demons and gods were also seen in other areas.

Regarding the internal problems of the neighbors next door, everyone only regarded them as something to talk about after dinner.

Especially the old forest policemen who had served as soldiers on the snowy plateau did not have a good impression of the Tianzhu people, and even wished that they would be torn apart.

After eating and drinking, everyone packed up the cooking bags. These bags were not allowed to be thrown in the wild, but had to be taken back for recycling.

Zhao Tiezhu and other senior rangers were watching TV; while Bai Hao and other young rangers were sorting out relevant information.

They conducted a manual review of the animals and plants they photographed along the way. Although the system can identify most species, there is still the possibility of errors.

Therefore, Bai Hao and others need to conduct manual review.

The tropical rainforest in the southwest, coupled with the elevation changes in the Hengduan Mountains, results in a very rich variety of species, with new species being discovered every day.

With the assistance of the system, he kept checking the various animals and plants on the video.

Although they have not undergone systematic professional study, Bai Hao and others' understanding of local flora and fauna is comparable to that of professional scholars.

At least many academics sitting in offices don’t know as much as they do.

Bai Hao also applied for a master's degree in wildlife at China Online University.

China Online University is a publicly established university at the end of last year. The reason why it is called an online university is not because the university's major is the Internet, but because the university's teaching method mainly uses online teaching.

This is also a compromise at present. The reform of education needs to be gradually transformed. There is no way to achieve it overnight. The emergence of online universities has filled many vacancies.

The strategy adopted by China Online University is to be liberal in entry and strict in exit. The registration requirements are very low, as long as you have graduated from high school. However, it is not too easy to obtain a diploma.

For example, the wildlife and biological resources major that Bai Hao studied requires very solid professional knowledge, and it is not an old TV University diploma that can be obtained with money.

The graduation certificate from China Online University is no less valuable than an average second-tier university.

Starting this year, in order to adapt to the development requirements of education for all, 35 colleges and universities, led by Suiren University, have canceled the rules linking school level and academic certificates, and have also canceled graduation thesis.

Comprehensively switch to the graduation model of credits + joint examination + professional examination.

In other words, in order to complete graduation, students must earn enough credits and pass the joint entrance examination and professional examination.

The credits are usually on a 300-point system, and the passing mark is 180 points. Only those with more than 180 points are allowed to apply for the joint examination and professional examination.

Among them, the professional examination is the most important, which is the student's own professional performance, and the joint examination can be regarded as an elective course.

If a student earns 180 points in credits and passes the professional examination, he or she can graduate directly. However, for graduation in this way, the highest professional rating on the degree certificate is only A (provided that the professional examination is full).

The degree certificate will contain three major items, namely comprehensive credits, professional scores, and joint examination scores.

This information can be viewed in detail through the graduation certificate number on Xuexin.com to determine the value of the degree certificate.

Generally speaking, the evaluation of professional scores is the most important, followed by joint entrance examination scores, and finally comprehensive credits.

If all three items are A, the overall evaluation will become A++, which is the highest honor in this degree.

Of course, the evaluation of Xuexin.com is not static. If academic fraud, cheating in exams and other violations of regulations occur, the rating will be lowered or even canceled directly.

The reason for this change is mainly to change the bad atmosphere of local education.

Nowadays, primary school students are like old oxen plowing fields, middle school students are like donkeys pulling mills, and college students are like pig farms.

Many high school students let themselves go as soon as they arrive at college, and are quickly dazzled by the colorful world, and their enthusiasm for learning fades.

This actually has something to do with the high pressure in primary and secondary schools. It suddenly relaxes in college, and many students with weak willpower quickly let themselves go.

In Huang Xiuyuan's view, this is putting the cart before the horse.

In terms of study arrangement, primary school should be the easiest, and secondary school should gradually improve. At university, a strict learning atmosphere should be maintained, especially in the graduation examination, which must be strictly controlled.

The current need to implement compulsory university education for all is a strategy of lenient advancement, not lenient exit, but strict exit.

The management of local universities is very loose, which is a waste of students' lives. You must know that college students are between the ages of 18 and 24, which is the most energetic and dynamic stage of human beings.

Isn’t it a waste of resources if we don’t strictly educate and train them at this time?

The purpose of improving the graduation model is to give students a sense of urgency. If they cannot earn enough credits and pass the professional examination, then forget about graduating.

Bai Hao has been studying at China Online University for three months. He only got 24 credits in the first semester, which is obviously not up to standard.

However, under the online teaching model, it is relatively difficult to obtain credits, but the gold content is also relatively high.
