The publicly displayed benefits of Science City alone are enough to attract talents from all over the world.
Perhaps the image that China has created for scientists is that they are indifferent to fame and fortune, but selfless dedication.
In fact, scientists are not closely related to these eight characters. Due to their developed brains, their desires are even stronger than ordinary people.
Especially in Western countries, the maritime culture and the evolution of ideological trends after the Renaissance in Western countries determine that they must put self-feeling first.
As for the national concept, you may have it, but in the face of self-interest, you don't have to have it.
Otherwise, there would not have been so many German scientists and former Russian scientists recruited by Amerikan in large numbers after their own country failed.
These scientists had defected to America and other Western countries one after another before their own country failed.
The most attractive perk of the Science City, in addition to extending your life span, is the artificial intelligence assistant that can help you verify many ideas and write papers.
An assistant that can take care of almost all your daily and research work. As you get used to it, it will be able to understand your intentions close to 100%.
For a person who is obsessed with scientific research, he can put all his energy into exploring unknown areas instead of trivial matters.
The number of people applying to become permanent residents of science cities around the world has surged year after year, from 2 million in the first year to 20 million this year.
Mainly if you are applying by yourself, you must at least have a Ph.D.
However, there are no academic requirements for talents with real potential and qualifications that Zheng Li judged through virtual reality device scanning.
Since 2000, the growth rate of highly educated talents around the world has been rapid. Even if doctorates are rare, the number of PhDs in the world is still a large number.
In China and America alone, the number of new doctoral degrees each year is around 70,000.
Of course, a degree does not equal ability, but for a position that is in short supply, it is necessary to set certain thresholds.
Are jobs in large companies really only available through 985 and 211?
Obviously not.
In the first two decades of the 21st century alone, large state-owned enterprises hired top consulting organizations such as McKinsey to help them transform their businesses.
The core appeal is to dismantle the company's business to the point where it can be done even if everyone is replaced by high school graduates.
Therefore, the larger the enterprise, the more streamlined and standardized its business is, and the ability requirements for individuals are actually lower.
This is also why the code of a large factory is easier to maintain than the code of a small factory, because the big factory has its own set of standards for code writing.
Since the larger the enterprise, the simpler the work content is, so why set a threshold?
Because there are so many people who want to come, individuals who do not meet the requirements are screened out through the explicit threshold of academic qualifications.
But there will also be gods who don't have to follow the explicit rules.
Generally speaking, when you are on a list of new recruits and you see Tsinghua University and Peking University, and then there are a few Yanjing local second-level students in the middle, you should have an idea.
Science City has set a doctorate as the threshold, not because there are not enough positions, but because the job pays so well and lacks an obvious management and assessment mechanism.
Scientific research is a process of accumulation and accumulation. If the problem you solve is too difficult, even if you think about it every day, you may not get any results in your life.
Like Zhang Yitang, if he hadn't made achievements in twin prime numbers, no one would actually know that he was an outstanding mathematician.
In Science City, there is no such thing as a three-year promotion or leave. If there are no results, you need to leave.
Even the three-year assessment period only allows you to talk about some of your thoughts and phased results in the past three years.
The three-year assessment period is to verify your ability and potential, rather than what articles you need to publish and how many impact factors you need to achieve.
Such weak constraints are inherently avoided, resulting in meaningless scientific research that is result-oriented.
Science City has been operating for about five years.
In the past five years, the outside world has gained a general understanding of the operation of Science City.
More and more scientists hope to join the Science City. One of the experts wrote in his personal blog:
“I would love to work in the Science City in the Lion City.
The treatment and special environment of Science City are only one of the factors that make me want to go, but they are not the decisive factors.
The fundamental reason that really makes me want to work in Science City is that their assessment mechanism is not result-oriented.
In the modern academic system, there is complete worship of results.
No one cares about your grades in middle school or which school you graduated from.
The only thing that may be useful is which supervisor you followed during your PhD.
What everyone cares about is what papers you published, in which journal they were published, and what the impact factor is.
As for whether these papers themselves are meaningful, not many people care.
Whenever a new direction is discovered, what everyone cares about is how many papers can be published in this direction, and how much benefit can be obtained from it.
As for truth, not many people care about the spirit of science itself.
Most researchers strive to write a paper that will be accepted for publication rather than to produce something valuable.
Although in fact most papers do have no practical use, in today's era, this phenomenon is becoming more and more common, and the spirit of pursuing truth is gradually being lost.
Einstein once said: A person who is forced to write a lot of scientific works will run the risk of his academic career becoming superficial.
I have met many talented researchers in various academic forums. Their thinking and logic are very sharp. During the conversation, they were able to follow my thinking and gave me some inspiring suggestions.
But after I went back and looked through their papers, most, or even all, of them were meaningless, just boring piles of numbers.
Their papers and themselves left me with completely opposite impressions.
Similar accusations have been made endlessly over the years, although academics have always defended this criticism by claiming:
Research in basic sciences is difficult and incremental, like blood transfusions used in MRI scans or in papers published in an obscure academic journal in the 1800s.
We need a lot of repeated experiments to derive valuable enough results.
These useless results can pave the way for sufficiently useful results.
But these piles of useless results are purely a matter of fine-tuning the method. Is it really necessary for PhDs or even professors to repeat data over and over again in order to get the data they want?
Now that a large number of jobs in the manufacturing and service industries are being replaced by artificial intelligence, can academia provide some low-end jobs to ordinary people and allow more people to participate in academia?
Science City completely respects individuals and is not paper-oriented or result-oriented. I think it is a place that is conducive for scientists to think about some truly valuable issues. "
In fact, it is paper-oriented. What all scientific researchers pursue is to publish papers, not what issues I am interested in. I want to explore the truth and push the boundaries of understanding of the world further.
The most fundamental reason is that performance appraisal in academia requires a mechanism to evaluate how well professors, researchers and doctoral students are doing their work.
If science is like a towering tree, then most of the lower fruits have been picked by predecessors, and most of the remaining fruits are very difficult to pick.
For example, it might only take me three to five years to think about a valuable problem and get the result, which is exactly the cycle from enrollment to graduation for a PhD.
In these five years, I was able to produce a valuable result, publish a meaningful paper, and then graduate successfully.
But now I also have to publish a doctoral thesis in about five years, but the fruits that can be picked in five years are gone, and other fruits may take fifteen years or even longer to pick.
At this time, I faced the time pressure of graduation again.
Then I can only choose some results that are meaningless but can be published in papers.
Then after graduating from a Ph.D., you will become a postdoctoral fellow or a teaching assistant. Almost every title is accompanied by performance appraisal and time pressure.
This is why it seems that it is getting harder and harder to produce good results in academia, with a large number of meaningless papers flooding various journals.
The difficulty of scientific research has changed, but the assessment mechanism has not changed.
This problem is not unique to China, but is a common problem faced by academic circles around the world.
The only advantage compared to China is that after foreign academics graduate and enter colleges and universities, they become members of the terack evaluation sequence, and the pressure on this performance appraisal is not very high.
At the same time, after you complete it, you can really get the establishment and become a tenured professor.
In addition to the high pressure of performance appraisal set by the country, it is also possible that the appraisal tasks that have been clearly stated may be because the young teachers recruited in the next few years are better, and then the conditions for you are suddenly changed.
There are two positions abroad, so recruit two people and formulate a terack assessment plan.
There are two positions in the country, so I will recruit two hundred people. Let these two hundred people fight hard. I may replace the winner of the fight.
In such a cultivation environment, it would be strange not to engage in data modification or to focus on thesis theory.
If you spend time working on valuable problems, then wait for three years without producing results and then you will be graduated.
After the Science City officially started operating, the largest number of applicants were Chinese.
The assessment mechanism of Science City is not too easy for those who want to make a career in cultivating Gu.
And for scientists in China, as long as you become a professor, you can work in multiple places at the same time.
For example, Dybvig, the former dean of Xicai School of Economics, won the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2022. When he was working at Xicai, he only came here for one month a year.
The constraints in Science City are very weak, it can be said that there are almost no constraints.
They can work in their home countries and come back to the Lion City when they want.
Researchers in the Science City are actually equivalent to an access qualification. After obtaining it, they can enter the Science City at any time and enjoy the corresponding benefits.
Zheng Li doesn't care where you made the results.
Science City will recognize any good and valuable research results you produce in China, Amerikan, or England.
Of course, the research results here need to be done by you, and your personal contribution must be at least 50%.
Since the final results certification needed to be carried out back to the Science City, Zheng Li had already developed a truth system for Hua to use more than ten years ago, let alone his own home base.
Embezzling other people's academic achievements through deception and trying to muddle through in the face of artificial intelligence is overthinking.
In 2039, many universities or institutions will recognize the judgment given by Science City.
In other words, the young scholars in their school who are waiting to obtain establishment positions have passed the Science City's assessment and become official permanent residents, even if they have not completed the relevant assessment tasks.
Then the university or institution will automatically recognize the applicant as a qualified teacher.
For young scholars, it is also an additional path.
The Gu-raising paper in high schools is not as good as the other paper kings, so maybe he can find a way out of the Science City.
In the last year of the 2030s, even China was able to provide relatively complete basic welfare protection for the people at the bottom.
At the same time, wages in the service industry have increased significantly, resulting in most people working for three months to have fun for nine months.
That is, they can work only three months a year without thinking about the future.
In fact, it’s not that we don’t consider the future, we will still consider the future.
It's just that they put their expectations and fantasies about the future in the virtual world, hoping to use the remaining nine months to gain something in the virtual world.
This is the situation in China, and even more so in other developed countries.
Like the Nordic countries, there is not much difference between not working and working. The government pays the bill anyway.
Some radical politicians even proposed that no one should work. After he came to power, everyone would have to pay to go to work.
As for where the money comes from, all enterprises are owned by the state, and then a small number of third-world people are hired to work.
Of course, it is still too radical for now, because to maintain the basic operation of the city, there are still some service industries that still need real people to do it.
But like food delivery, Musk's Tesla claims that it will solve this problem through robots within five years.
In this era, the quality of life at the bottom has never been higher.
There are also a large number of Chinese people who believe that learning is the only way out and are pursuing academic careers.
Most of the people who study in the academic field abroad are wealthy people, either because of their own hobbies or because of family guidance.
The upper-class families abroad are keenly aware that in the future, the traditional power class of mankind and foreign mages will share power.
The only mage on the surface is Merlin.
Merlin's tendency was obviously to highly value academics, so they tried to invest some negligible manpower in this field.
