    For a country like China with nearly 10 million square kilometers of land and a population of 1.2 billion, it is naturally a big country.  China's rapid development can be seen as reform dividends, demographic dividends, and market dividends. Reform is the most important. Only when reforms are carried out and barriers are broken can other factors play their role.  But these dividends will disappear sooner or later. The faster China develops, the faster the dividends will disappear. The development of labor-intensive industries mainly benefits from the demographic dividend. However, according to the family planning policy in the mainland, the population will decline in at most 20 to 30 years.  The dividends will disappear, and then the mainland will have to face the problem of population aging.  From bonus to burden, the transition is so fast.  But the fertility policy cannot be canceled soon. After all, the 1.2 billion population imposes a huge burden on the country and society. The country cannot afford the consequences of continued rapid population growth.  In a sense, the expansion of college enrollment has indeed accelerated the mainland's advantage in labor-intensive industries to a certain extent, because in 20 years, the gross enrollment rate of higher education in the mainland will exceed 50%, that is,  It is said that half of the working-age population has entered college, and for these people who have received higher education, they are definitely unable to accept jobs and low wages in labor-intensive industries. This makes the potential labor force in labor-intensive industries  Just cut it in half.  In addition, the development of the tertiary industry will also absorb a large number of people of working age, which will lead to fewer and fewer people willing to engage in monotonous and repetitive labor-intensive industries, and some factories often experience labor shortages.  But the explosive growth in higher education has indeed improved the education level of mainland people.  When Apple asked why it produces iPhones in the mainland, it once said that only in the mainland can it find a sufficient number of technical engineers.  Mobile phone OEM is not a high technology, but precision production requires a large number of engineers. Without the great development of higher education, it is probably difficult for the mainland to have so many engineers, and industrial upgrading will be even more difficult.  From the perspective of someone who has experienced it, there are indeed many problems with the explosive growth of higher education in the mainland. After all, doubling the number of universities in two years and expanding one hundred universities in one year is contrary to the development laws of higher education.  This rough growth method, on the one hand, improves the overall level of higher education, but on the other hand, it inevitably leads to uneven quality.  It is still very realistic for moderates to worry about the issue of higher education resources.  However, for the current government, expanding the scale of higher education still has many practical implications.  The mainland's economic growth has declined in the past two years, due to both cyclical reasons and structural and reform issues. The reform of state-owned enterprises is to break the shackles of economic development and activate the potential of economic development, which is very important in the long run.  But for now, we still have to look at the three pillars of economic growth: exports, investment and consumption.  In terms of exports, affected by the financial crisis, the currencies of Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asian countries have depreciated, while the Chinese dollar, which is firmly pegged to the U.S. dollar, has relatively appreciated. As a result, the products produced in the mainland have become more expensive than those of Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asian countries.  Products have become less competitive in terms of price. Although exports are still increasing, the growth rate is declining, which is bound to have an impact on economic growth.  In terms of investment, investment growth is not slow, but due to the impact of the reform of state-owned enterprises, finances are also relatively tight. Although the government adheres to a proactive fiscal policy, due to the impact of financial tensions, the scale of fiscal expansion is also limited, and only relying on the government  Investment in infrastructure is not a long-term solution.  Relatively speaking, consumption has a relatively healthy impact on the economy. The government has also been looking for ways to stimulate mass consumption. It has proposed new housing reform policies to promote the development of real estate. It is also related to the reform of higher education fees and the expansion of the scale of higher education.  related.  According to statistics, mainland families¡¯ education consumption accounts for 40% of household consumption. This shows that mainland families attach great importance to the education of their offspring. Therefore, the government hopes to stimulate the consumer economy by expanding the scale of higher education. Some people even call it the higher education industry.  slogan.  Of course, this slogan was quite controversial and was later withdrawn, but in the past two years, this statement does have a certain market.  The expansion of higher education will not only drive consumption charged by colleges and universities, but also increase the number of 500,000 to 600,000 college students every year. This group will drive consumption after entering the city.  In addition, the expansion of higher education enrollment has also made college entrance examinations a hot topic. If only a small part of the population of the right age would apply for college in the past, then with the gross enrollment rate and college entrance examination admission rate increasing significantly, the number of people applying for college has also increased.  There will be more and more, and the resulting consumption will spread to the entire high school, even junior high school student group and related families, and this group includes tens of millions of middle school students and tens of millions of families.  This is the real impact of higher education on the public. In the past, entering college was only a matter for a small number of people. After the scale of higher education expands, it will become a matter for everyone, and some of them will continue to pursue higher education.?Good education will have an impact on the education and training market and the study abroad market.  In addition, expanding the scale of higher education can also help alleviate the current employment pressure.  The biggest contradiction in society in the past two years is the problem of laid-off workers. Laid-off workers, migrant workers and unemployed youth have caused the current actual unemployment rate to be very high. After expanding the scale of higher education, colleges and universities will absorb an additional 500,000-600,000 school-age young people every year, and colleges and universities will expand enrollment.  At the same time, the size of middle schools will also expand, and some young people who would have entered society for employment will enter high schools and universities. Together with the jobs created after the expansion of enrollment, the employment demand will be reduced by millions or even tens of millions every year.  Liang Jianwu was able to serve as the Xingang Office because he naturally knew the debate, game and decision-making background behind the expansion of higher education. Therefore, when Bao Feiyang contacted several universities in Xingang, he paid special attention to it.  Compared with the expansion of the scale of colleges and universities, it will undoubtedly be more difficult to improve the academic level and educational level of colleges and universities. To this end, the country has also launched the 211 Project and the 985 Project, hoping to establish a number of world-class prestigious schools while expanding the scale.  , but this task obviously has a long way to go.  Bao Feiyang plans to cooperate with universities in Xingang to introduce an international perspective and teaching atmosphere to the construction of Huixun District University Town, making Huixun District University Town different from ordinary university towns. Liang Jianwu still agrees with this.  Since our own accumulation is not enough, we can solve it through introduction and exchange. This is a good method. The development of Xingang University of Science and Technology is enough to illustrate this point.  However, the situation in the mainland is different from that in Xingang.  In addition to the issue of school funding, there are many restrictions in terms of management and enrollment. Relatively speaking, funding is not actually a problem that Bao Feiyang is worried about. He knows very well that what mainland universities will lack in the future is not money, but real masters of scholars.  , and the quality of education.  "Your idea is very good" Liang Jianwu glanced at Bao Feiyang and said: "If you need any help in Xingang, you can just tell me. I can also help you get this cooperation included in the list.  It is a key project to strengthen exchanges and cooperation between Xingang and the mainland, so that both Xingang and the mainland will provide some support and convenience for the project. Currently, Xingang has been seeking breakthroughs in this area to revitalize Xingang's economy, so I think everyone will be interested in this project.  I'm more happy to see the results." Bao Feiyang nodded: "Then I'll trouble Uncle Liang" Bao Feiyang thought for a while and said, "I have been studying Xingang's higher education during this period. Xingang's higher education is the best in Asia and even the whole world.  The world is above the standard. If Xingang wants to strengthen its ties with the mainland, this is actually a very useful point." Liang Jianwu smiled slightly and said: "Since last year, Xingang has increased the number of places for mainland college students and also increased the number of students.  "The international learning atmosphere of Xingang universities is still very attractive to mainland college students," Bao Feiyang said.  "In addition, I noticed that the New City government proposed in 1997 to build New City into the Boston of the East and proposed the vision of building a regional talent training center and education hub. Next, New City is likely to promote the implementation and implementation of relevant plans. This idea  The core is probably to expand the scale and quality of higher education in Xincheng, and attract more international students from the Asia-Pacific region to study in Xincheng¡± Xincheng and Xingang are relatively close in many aspects, including area, population, urbanization, independent economies, and free ports.  , logistics and financial centers, etc. The two are now the world's largest port and the second largest port respectively. Naturally, they are often compared with each other and pay more attention to each other.  New Town proposed the vision of Eastern Boston two years ago, and invited experts from various countries to come to New Town to make suggestions. Although there are no more concrete actions yet, Newport has also noticed this plan.  "During the financial crisis of 1997, although Xincheng's economic and financial system did not collapse, the losses were huge. The economy fell into a severe recession in the past two years. Xincheng's leaders proposed a transformation to a knowledge economy. They proposed at this time  The vision of Eastern Boston should be to use first-class higher education to attract outstanding talents from all over the world to the new city, and then stay in the new city to contribute to the knowledge economy of the new city. Its core is to gather and cultivate local and international-level overseas diaspora talents.  "Liang Jianwu pondered for a moment: "Feiyang, do you think Xingang should follow Xincheng's Eastern Boston plan?" Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Xingang is no worse than Xincheng in terms of higher education, and Xingang has also proposed development.  The core of the new economy is knowledge and the Internet, and its biggest feature is globalization. How can Xingang take the lead in the new economic wave of globalization with just local talents?
