Don't laugh at India, think about when China will be able to produce a "Musk"? Don't let talent break up

We often hear that China is a big manufacturing country, and China is already the second largest economy in the world, and in another decade or so, it may even surpass the world's largest economy, the United States. The above statement is very correct, there is no problem, and many people are proud of it, but I think sometimes it is necessary to be humble and rational. To be honest, we are still in the hands of others in science and technology, especially in core technology. The source of many core technologies is actually in the United States, otherwise the chip domestic large aircraft engine will not be subject to others for a long time, and there are not many multinational giant companies that we can call other brands in the whole world, it seems that only Hua wei, which can not find which one.

In the future, what we need more is an entrepreneur like Elon Musk, take a long-term view, aim at the sea of stars, you see people are engaged in the star chain plan, and even say that they want to shout on Mars, rather than just worrying about the people's vegetable baskets and charging more commissions, rather than engaging in scientific and technological research and development. To put it simply, I hope that entrepreneurs can have a little ambition, although the number of Chinese patents in China is very large, this is a fact, we have been the first in the world for 8 consecutive years, but you are more, you still do not have core competitiveness and core innovation capabilities.

Think about it after the reform and opening up, our country does not seem to have too many figures who can be compared with Tu Youyou, Yuan Longping, Tong Dizhou, Chen Jingrun, Qian Xuesen and other outstanding master-level elders, and now it seems that we see more big capitalists and traffic stars, such as Ma Yun, Ma Huateng, Wang Jianlin, Liu Qiangdong, etc. Some capitalists who started in Internet finance and real estate, as well as many very famous Internet celebrity small fresh meat star artists and actors. They are paid more than scientists, which is worth thinking about.

In fact, if China wants to have stronger innovation and competitiveness in the world in the future, I think it really needs to come up with a very good entrepreneur or scientist, and in the end, it is actually implemented in education. Take India as an example, although India did a really bad job in the epidemic last year, of course, I found that there are many Chinese people laughing at them, but one yard to one yard, India is worth learning from in the cultivation of high-quality talents, and if you want to further yourself, you must first recognize where there is a deficiency, and then I am doing it seriously, or I learn from others' good places, choose their good people and follow them.

Why do I say that in some respects I want to learn from India? According to statistics, Tsinghua has more than 10,000 alumni in Silicon Valley in the United States, if you count Peking University, Fudan, Zhejiang University, Nankai, these famous universities, there are about 100,000 elites of China's famous universities working in Silicon Valley, they can be said to be very representative. However, those of us who work in Silicon Valley are only engaged in programmers or some managers at the middle and low levels, but the average level of a position in Silicon Valley is much higher than that of Chinese for example, the CEOs of Google and Microsoft are all Indians, 1/3 of the engineers in Silicon Valley are of Indian descent, and 7% of the CEOs in high-tech companies are of Indian descent, and in recent years, Indians have created engineering or technology companies. More than one piece created by the British, Japanese, and Chinese.

Of course, there is a reason for this to be the good environment in the Silicon Valley area and the good market near Silicon Valley. However, we also have to say that India does have their success points in cultivating elite talents. Let's think back, from the reform to the present, we have actually broadened a lot in the field of science, and have made great progress, and the number of our scientific teams has also expanded very large, but this team does not equal high quality, or lacks the existence of absolute master-level figures, which makes it difficult for us to have an absolute core ability to guide competition in a certain field in the world.

If you think about it, in fact, a lot of our technology is learned, you only learn, not rely on creation, and how to lead in a field. So we have to be calm while laughing at India, and think about how we can cultivate better talents ourselves. Because I think that there has been a degradation in the cultivation of high-end talents, of course, our basic education is very powerful, but I think that in the cultivation of interest, as well as the cultivation of hands-on practice and logic to cultivate independent thinking ability, there is still something to be improved.

The qualities I mentioned above are precisely a quality requirement for a CEO or leader, a top scientist. If you only have some basic qualities, you can only say that you are still a tool person, but our education seems to be pursuing short and fast, continuous brushing, instilling imitation learning, we cultivate more like a set of standardized talents, but it is difficult for you to come out with a leading talent, maverick, divergent thinking, very creative.

Then we also have tens of millions of college graduates every year, but how many can really come out to take on the role of scientific and technological innovation in the end, and how many can be industry leaders? You can't let ma yun, Ma Huateng, Wang Jianlin, Wang Xing, such people who play capital to be the leaders of the technology industry, so if China wants to be competitive in the future, you must cultivate some master-level figures, especially in science and technology to be able to stand alone, you have to have technology to be able to innovate, dare to innovate. What we need in the future is talent like Musk. You don't look at India as a country as a whole is very poor and has an unfair caste system, but if there is a Musk in India, I think the fate of the whole country may be greatly changed because of this.

But to be honest, I hope that such talents will appear more in our China, so we can't patronize jokes about others, you also have to strengthen the sense of urgency, the population of China in the past two years is also showing a downward trend, which means that in the next ten years, 20 years and 30 years, our demographic dividend will disappear, we have to make a good transformation, that is, to transform the demographic dividend into a talent dividend, in order to maintain our competitiveness.

It is said that China is now strong, but why are there still many talents he does not return to China? First of all, I would like to say that the domestic competitive pressure is indeed quite large, and there is often only one criterion for success in the inner volume, that is, you give me money, you have money, you have a good name, others can look up to you, and it seems to have become the only criterion. Secondly, the pressure between peers is also very large, you want to break free, but the whole environment is like this, you can only adapt to it, there is no way to calm down to engage in academics, to slowly do what you like, or to do some innovation, at the same time, Chinese-style socializing is also a headache, you do something or do something to cooperate, you may need some twists and turns of the process, sometimes you obey no, not obedient, but in some developed countries, Our material level is even better than theirs, but it is difficult for you to achieve the state of peace of mind of others.

Because in many developed countries no one cares who you are, and will not look up to you because you have money, people will not think that you have a house and a car, you have an annual salary of millions, you feel that you are superior, or you will not be very happy because you earn a lot of materials. For the elite of many developed countries, it is actually very important to their own cultivation, that is to say, they themselves are respected, or they are very happy, and happiness is because of their own existence, not because of external materials. For example, if you are a smarter and more intelligent person than others, and you have the ability to solve everyone's difficulties, then such a person is welcomed by everyone.

So I think in the future can we consider whether we can consider it later, then the importance of talents should be greater than the importance of connections, so that more talents have room to play, so that they can be well respected, can release their potential, admired by everyone, rather than saying that the whole society everyone goes to make money, engage in speculation, otherwise you do this, the talent heart is not cold, he simply goes to lie flat, after lying flat, who in this country to drive the development of high technology, so don't laugh at India first, let's be quiet first, After all, you just laugh at others, you can't improve yourself, and it is only right to think more about yourself.
