Chapter 2807
Bai Kesi smiled and said: "You kid, don't make jokes, talk about it carefully, do you have any other ideas for solving the problem?"
"Yes." Bai Letong nodded without hesitation: "Actually, I think the most reasonable method is to start from the field of culture and education. Maybe the results are not that fast, but the effect must be the best."
"Then tell me about it." Bai Kesi knew that although his son was a scholar, he had a very stubborn personality, and if he was not allowed to speak properly, he would definitely feel a knot in his heart.
It is not difficult for Bai Letong to understand the alienation and estrangement caused by objective circumstances. It's like he and Chen Pingliao have known each other for a long time, but they can't say they have a deep friendship. Because they lack sufficient understanding, they can't establish a deep relationship of mutual trust.
But Bai Letong is also convinced that identification with the country, Haihan culture, and world view will generate a strong centripetal force, allowing each overseas region to maintain its long-term loyalty to the executive committee.
If the situation that the Executive Committee is worried about occurs during this period, it can only mean that Haihan is not strong enough. At this time, it is more necessary to increase investment in culture and education, rather than being suspicious of each other and restricting local development momentum through various means.
Bai Letong said: "The Executive Committee is worried that its influence on overseas regions will gradually weaken in the future, so we should strengthen the education of the next generation of citizens and fundamentally eliminate the possibility of separatism and division in overseas regions. ”
"If the people do not receive enough information, it will be difficult to form correct concepts. Even if this area becomes an economically developed region in the future, the people may lack a sense of identity with the country, thus creating the crisis that the Executive Committee is worried about."< br>
"Among the goods sent to the Northern Region this time, there should be a batch of new textbooks revised by the Ministry of Culture and Education last year, which include the latest interpretation of the national political system. I think it is necessary to summon local officials in charge of culture and education and the heads of educational institutions. Explain the key points of the new textbooks to them face-to-face and ask them to add relevant content to their daily teaching and examinations.”
Bai Letong's narration reminded Bai Kesi of the time and space before time travel. The country was so powerful, but it still could not prevent a small group of people from establishing self-government on the island. The most common practice of these local separatist forces is to refuse to recognize their identity and cultural connection with the country and instill wrong ideas into the people. In just one or two generations, the country has almost lost its influence in these regions.
Perhaps because of this, the Executive Committee is particularly worried that overseas regions will break away from the control of the country at some point in the future, and is even considering controlling the industrial development process in these regions.
But Bai Letong's words suddenly made Bai Kesi realize that for the special environment of the Northern Region, which is far away from the center of power, this may be a blind spot in the executive committee's understanding. If the use of cultural and educational means can be increased, it will also It can be regarded as a solution to potential crises.
Of course, if Bai Letong's suggestions are to be adopted, administrative orders from the Executive Committee alone are definitely not enough. Full cooperation from the local authorities is required.
Bai Kesi pondered: "This place is not as convenient as the south. If you want to bring relevant people together from all over Dengzhou, you have to first issue an official notice from the management committee, and then wait for people to come from all over the place. The farthest place It is three to four hundred miles away from Fushan County. It takes a lot of time to get there. To be safe, it is best to let the management committee decide the specific meeting time. "
Seeing that his father supported his idea, Bai Letong immediately agreed to the request.
Bai Kesi added: "It's a rare trip to Shandong. I plan to walk around in the next few days. You should have nothing to do in Fushan County, so just follow me!"
Bai Letong asked curiously: "Where will father go next?"
Bai Kesi said: "Let's go to Dengzhou City first, and then take a look at the mines in Longkou and Zhaoyuan." One of the important purposes of Bai Kesi's trip is to comprehensively inspect the large-scale industrial projects currently operating in the Northern Region. Dengzhou has several important mineral deposits such as copper, coal, and gold, so Baikes naturally wants to spend more time here.
The next day, the group set off from Zhifu Port and took a boat to Dengzhou City.
The land distance between Dengzhou City and Fushan County is about one hundred miles. Although there is an official road, if you want to reach Dengzhou City in one day, you have to change horses in the middle, and you can't stop to rest. There is no comfort at all. Sex can be said. If the trip was divided into two days, it would be too time-consuming, so I chose to go by boat.
It is worth mentioning that Ji Shengrong, whom Bai Letong met at the vocational college the day before yesterday, also boarded the ship as an escort today to follow them on their next inspection trip in the Northern Region.
As the chief mining expert in the Northern Region, Ji Shengrong will act as an accompanying technical advisor as long as there are mines wherever Baikes and his party go.
When Bai Letong talked to his father about his visit to the vocational college yesterday, he also mentioned this part-time teacher who gave funny lectures, so after meeting him, Bai Kesi also gave some gentle words of encouragement.
Ji Shengrong said: "I received the notice too late yesterday, and the college happened to have classes, so I was unable to rush to the Fushan Copper Mine. I hope you will forgive me."
Bai Kesi said: "You don't need to blame yourself. Of course, preaching and getting the job are more important. But if you follow us next, what about the courses in this college?"
Ji Shengrong responded: "After I received the notice yesterday, I wanted to bring the students with me and let them see the world. But the management committee said there were too many people and it was inconvenient to arrange, so I could only send the students to study on their own in the college. .”
Bai Kesi smiled and said: "Taking students everywhere seems like the demeanor of your master back then."
Talking about Tian Yeyou, Ji Shengrong's expression immediately became serious: "I have been in this humble position and have not been able to meet my master for many years. It is really a pity in my life. Only by applying all the knowledge that my master taught me back then to my work can I live up to his teachings."< br>
Bai Kesi nodded and said: "Old Tian is lucky to have a disciple like you. I will convey it to you when I see him next time."
Chen Yixin knew that Bai Kesi's boat was equipped with the latest diesel engine, so he asked to see the actual working effect. So a group of people went down to the power cabin and asked the operator to start the machine.
A huge roar sounded in the cabin, and then everyone felt that the entire space they were in began to vibrate with the operation of the machine, and it was difficult to hear people talking face to face.
Naturally, it is not suitable to stay in such an environment for a long time. After seeing this, everyone was surprised and gathered at the stern of the ship. From a high position, they could see the two propellers driven by the engine rotating rapidly underwater, and the resulting spray dragged out two long lines on the sea surface. imprint.
