Chapter 517 Embarrassing Academy of Sciences
No one can change the adaptation decided by the emperor, but within the limited time, everyone still wants to do what they can.
Try to create better conditions for the emperor's subsequent travel and create a more stable rear area.
But all things cannot be promoted without people.
The current Han Dynasty court can be said to be excessively empty, with department staffing seriously lacking.
Especially in engineering, until now, there is still only one Wang Ji.
Even Wang Ji, after completing the innovation of farm tools, did not come up with any technology that would impress people.
It's not that Wang Ji is not strong enough, but that everyone knows that there is no savior in this world.
No one can solve all problems, and not every problem he encounters will be solved.
If you place your hope on only one person, then this country will be completely ruined.
In other words, it is impossible for only one person to be working on a large-scale scientific research project.
There may be several, dozens of different teams, tens of thousands of people in total, and it may take several years to complete it.
Therefore, at this moment, Luoyang Academy is not relaxed.
The emperor's trip has been confirmed. The only thing that is not confirmed is the time, but this is not a problem.
But before the emperor travels, some things must be resolved.
For example, improve the output capacity of the Academy of Sciences.
When it comes to the Academy of Sciences, the ministers are still speechless.
There are currently only two people in this unit, the dean Wang Buxing and the manager Wang Ji.
One thing in ancient times is actually the same as in modern times, that is, the level of the department boss, which is the level of the unit.
The emperor is personally in charge of the Academy of Sciences. How should this level be determined?
Okay, let’s not bring up this issue for now.
There is only one Wang Ji who is really working under his command, and he goes to negotiate peace and output again?
As for how useful the Academy of Sciences is?
No one can say for sure yet, but one thing is certain.
That is how much the emperor attaches importance to this department. Just because the emperor personally holds the position of president of the Academy of Sciences, the ministers in the court dare not ignore this department with only one employee.
But what's even more pity is that Wang Ji doesn't have any good projects at the moment.
It can be said that this is the only department with no upper limit on funding. As long as its budget is submitted, it will be directly approved by the Ministry of Household Affairs after a simple review.
However, Wang Ji did not submit the project budget allocation because he did not have a project.
Everyone knows the emperor's expectations for the Academy of Sciences, but now it is like this, so it is natural to be worried.
But, this kind of thing cannot be decided by one or two people.
No matter how simple and popular it is, everyone is eager to see that the Academy of Sciences can get busy.
But if the Academy of Sciences wants to be busy, it must first have enough people, and if the Academy of Sciences wants to have people, it must have a large base population.
There are only a few people in the engineering field, so where can we find higher-level talents?
Okay, this may be a bit one-sided.
But it does not prevent the big guys from making plans.
So, after another close conversation with Wang Ji, the three bosses bypassed the emperor and directly gave Wang Ji the latest instructions.
After returning to Luoyang Academy, Wang Ji also had a sad face.
After successfully researching the earth grader, Wang Ji was invited to become an engineering teacher at Luoyang Academy.
Similarly, in order to make up for the problems of engineering students as soon as possible, Luoyang Academy conducted a thorough test on the engineering majors of county schools.
I barely managed to skip a grade by recruiting fifty people to form two classes, which solved the embarrassing situation of having dozens of teachers and no students in the entire engineering department of the highest university in Han Dynasty.
The whole day, Wang Ji felt a little helpless.
"Father, three senior officials came to my son today and said that they wanted him to recruit people as soon as possible, set up the framework of the Academy of Sciences, and then try to start a few projects. If the big projects can't be won, they will start with small projects to gain experience, but
The son really has no choice now. The few apprentices under him are not capable enough. The students of the academy have just been here for one year. Although their basic foundation in county school is not bad, they still have a lot to learn after arriving at Luoyang Academy.
, and according to His Majesty's opinion, even if they graduate, they will not be able to enter the Academy of Sciences in a short while." When he returned home, Wang Ji directly found his father.
After all, Wang Ling is also the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and is somewhat related to his own Academy of Sciences.
Furthermore, having been an official for so many years, my experience is naturally beyond what I can compare with.
The most important thing is that there is no shame in asking your father for advice, and you don't have to worry about being deceived or being used secretly.
"Huh? You can't enter the Academy of Sciences even after graduation?" Wang Ling didn't expect this, and Wang Buxu didn't mention it to him.
Of course he knew that the emperor was strict with the Academy of Sciences, but didn't Wang Ji enter the Academy of Sciences without graduating from the academy?
Although the current Academy of Sciences people don’t even know about it or have heard of it.
"His Majesty said that the engineering majors in the academy only teach some basic knowledge. After graduation, they can be qualified for some technical positions in the Ministry of Industry, and they can also go to the industrial areas to hold technology-related positions, but it is still far from enough to enter the Academy of Sciences.
"
"The ultimate positioning of the Academy of Sciences is not a yamen with management functions like the Ministry of Industry, but a very pure academic yamen without any management nature. It only needs to be responsible for raising and solving problems. The reason why my son was able to
I entered the Academy of Sciences because I proposed the Earth Leveler."
"With the putting into use of graders, farming efficiency has been greatly improved. His Majesty once told his son that if the answer his son gave was not this, but a very ordinary answer, then his son might also be able to graduate. But
At most, they will be assigned to counties or counties." Wang Ji said with a sad face.
"Then has His Majesty said what kind of people can enter the Academy of Sciences?" Wang Ling asked.
What else can you hide from your father?
Besides, he still expects his father to give him advice.
Then he continued: "Your Majesty said that there are two types of people. One is those who can produce something that they don't have now when they graduate, or make substantial improvements to make their efficiency several times higher than before. The second type is those who are
Studying with a teacher after graduation is similar to the apprentices my son has now. When they reach their level, they can enter the Academy of Sciences."
"No need for scientific examination?" Wang Ling frowned tightly, this operation was a bit irritating.
