Chapter 313 Pirated
Heixingen.
As a small town, Hechingen has developed smoothly over the years. However, local residents suddenly found that their relationship with the original royal family of Hechingen was gradually drifting away. The old king Constantine traveled across the ocean, and the young crown prince also changed his mind. When he is not in the territory, he spends most of his time living directly in the castle even when he comes back. Hohenzollernburg is only a suburb from the town of Hechingen, not in the same place at all.
But because Prussia took over order, the local citizens gradually got used to this kind of life, and now it should be called Germany. On the day Germany was founded, the people of Hechingen spontaneously held a ceremony to celebrate this historical moment for the German nation.
Now, Ernst, a wandering man, has finally come back, and has come to the town for a rare occasion. The huge buildings renovated in the college district seem incompatible with the small and crowded streets of Hechingen. Maybe it wouldn't be so abrupt in Stuttgart.
However, because of the Hechingen Military Academy, most of the buildings here are built on the scale of German higher education institutions, and are larger in scale. In comparison, other nearby schools are less interesting.
Ernst looked at the Hechingen Military Academy he founded and said with emotion: "The Hechingen Military Academy has completed its historical mission in Hechingen. From now on, it will be used exclusively for East African students to learn German advanced technology." A university of knowledge and technology!”
East Africa currently has no plans to build its own universities. One is that there are not enough teachers, and the other is that there are not enough students. Therefore, it is better for East African higher education to be hosted in Europe. After all, in this era, talents who can serve as university teachers are in hot demand everywhere, so naturally they are not willing to develop in a place like East Africa that is no different from being exiled.
As for the issue of student sources, the first batch of primary school students in East Africa still have half a year to graduate, so the construction of secondary education in East Africa can be put on the agenda.
Tom: "Your Highness, do you mean that this place will be transformed into a German ordinary university in the future?"
Ernst nodded and said: "Well, not only will the Hechingen Military Academy be changed into a university, but other schools will also be integrated and changed into German universities. What name can you suggest?"
Next to the Hechingen Military Academy, there are three secondary schools founded by the Hechingen royal family. Together with the Hechingen Military Academy, they form a huge school district next to the town of Hechingen. The area is almost the same as the town of Hechingen. big.
Tom guessed: "Your Highness, you are planning to turn this place into the Kingdom's base for international students!"
Ernst: "Yes. Although Hechingen is a little quieter, it is not far from Stuttgart. It is a good place to run a school. It allows people to relax and study quietly without being too isolated from the world."
To be honest, it is of course better for universities to recruit students if they are located in cities, but since the students in Hechingen come from East Africa, this problem does not exist. The main issue is whether they can attract teachers.
Adults are different from young people. Young people yearn for big cities, while some adults like the hustle and bustle of cities, while others like the tranquility of the countryside.
The environment in Hechingen is not bad. The campus facilities left by the Hechingen Military Academy are also extremely complete, which can even be said to be a little exceeded. There is not much problem with transportation. Stuttgart is a transportation hub city in southwest Germany. After the reunification of Germany, it will definitely The railway here will be further repaired and strengthened, and it only takes half a day to transfer from Stuttgart to Hechingen. Hechingen will inevitably be connected to the railway system. The important reason why Hohenzollern Castle can become a military fortress is because of the control The Black Forest is the main transportation route to the Neckar Valley.
The main thoroughfare in the north-south direction.
Tom: "Your Highness, you plan to cultivate talents for the kingdom. In this case, it is better to establish a normal college. And in my opinion, Hechingen's reputation mainly depends on the Hechingen Bank, but the people in the German region do not understand it. A small place like Hechingen might as well bear the name of Stuttgart. After all, Stuttgart is a relatively well-known big city in Germany."
Most German people, and even European people, know the name of the Bank of Hechingen, but they really don’t know that Hechingen was originally just a place name. Some people even mistakenly thought that Hechingen was a person’s name. After all, European companies are named after people. There are more.
Ernst: "Haha, you mean Stuttgart Normal University?"
If the title of Stuttgart Normal University is indeed very impressive, Stuttgart's status in Germany is still relatively high. This can indeed mislead many teachers who come to apply for jobs. They originally thought that the workplace was in a big city, but when they arrived, they found that it was only a distance away. A bit rural area near Stuttgart.
It's a bit like Lanzhou University in its previous life. When you hear the name, it seems to be in downtown Lanzhou. In fact, the largest campus is more than 40 kilometers away from the city. Coincidentally, Hechingen is also more than 40 kilometers away from Stuttgart.
Tom: "Your Highness, all Germans who have some knowledge know Stuttgart, and even if Hechingen was once an independent country, it was just an unknown small country at the bottom of many German states. If we want to attract teachers, we must use A little trick."
Ernst: "Then let's just have two! One is the Stuttgart Normal University and the other is the Stuttgart University of Technology."
After saying this, Ernst himself smiled unkindly. If the citizens of Stuttgart in the future knew that their city was named after a school in Hechingen, they would feel terrible.
The conversation between the master and the servant revealed the purpose of Ernst's return this time, which is that the Hechingen Military Academy will be moved to East Africa. As the Pheasant Military Academy in Germany, it will be the highest officially certified military academy in East Africa. .
The reason why the Hechingen Military Academy was established in Germany was that the East African colony had just started at that time and could not afford the construction of the Hechingen Military Academy. Now the East African Kingdom definitely has this ability, so it is natural that the Hechingen Military Academy will be built. The academy, the cradle of East African military talent, moved back to East Africa.
After the Hechingen Military Academy moved away, the original school site became vacant. Ernst naturally wanted to use it. It was only built a few years ago. The buildings are still new, and the facilities are not worse than those of the University of Berlin. It is so good. Naturally, the place cannot be abandoned.
In the future, East Africa will definitely send international students to study in Germany and Austria, which can just in time integrate several schools in Hechingen and become a talent training base in East Africa.
Local German teachers can be recruited here to teach. They may be reluctant to go to East Africa, but Hechingen is different. The conditions here are not bad, they are close to home, and the cost of living is low.
Another advantage of building the university in Hechingen is that it makes it easier for East Africa to manage international students. If it is too dispersed, it may really be a waste of cultivating talents for Germany.
These international students will all return to East Africa to build East Africa in the future. If they are sent to various schools in Germany to study, East Africa will not be able to monitor their movements in a timely manner. It is impossible to arrest people from each school. This is an unavoidable problem. , it is a reality that East Africa is backward, and high-end talents generally like to flow to developed areas.
By establishing a university in Hechingen, it would be difficult for them to avoid major cities in Germany. This was still the base of the Hechingen royal family. As for the subjects needed in East Africa, they only needed to hire relevant teachers.
