Romanian Eagle

“We have recruited more than 2,100 people in Hamburg, and in the Ruhr area, this number has reached more than 11,000. Mainly in heavy industries such as steel industry, machinery manufacturing, chemical industry, coal mining, etc., we also recruited more than 3,000 in light industry. There are mainly food, textile, papermaking, printing, etc. In the field of education and scientific research, we have recruited 64 professors, senior engineers and other titles and above, 214 associate professors and other titles, and 457 lecturers and engineers. "

In a building in Hamburg, a Romanian staff member is reporting the current recruitment results to Calust in the office.

Because of the convenient transportation in Hamburg, Romania places the headquarters of German talent introduction here, and Carust is responsible for guiding the recruitment of various regions.

After listening to the subordinate's report, Carust put down the pen in his hand and instructed. "The introduction of education and scientific research talents is not enough, and more efforts are needed, especially for senior talents such as professors of senior engineers."

"I will send a telegram later to inform them of your requirements. However, we are restricted by Britain, France, the United States, Italy and other countries in recruiting these high-level talents, and they are also attracting these talents. Especially the United States People, we can't compete with their conditions."

The subordinate's report made Carrust frown. "Then start from other aspects, start with the placement and living of their family members. After all, our funds are not as rich as the Yankees, and we can't give so many resettlement fees and research funds."

"OK."

After his subordinates left, Carust rubbed his swollen temples, of course he knew about the wealth of Americans. At the professor level, the settling fee alone reaches 1,000-1,200 US dollars, while Romania can only give 500-600 US dollars, and the gap in research funding is also not small. And in terms of some well-known talents, the gap between the United States and Romania is even greater.

This is not to say that Romania cannot come up with so many expenses, but to comprehensively consider the domestic level. If Romania is also given the level of the United States, then the hard-working scientific research and education personnel in China will not rise. The annual financial expenditure has already been arranged at the beginning of the year. Once you increase the funding for education and research, what will happen to the funding of other government departments?

Moreover, recruiting education and scientific research talents in Germany is a long-term task, not a matter of one or two years, but a matter of more than ten years. Edel explained to him in detail before departure. If it is higher now, it will not be lower in the future. Carust has never heard of the saying that Shengmien fights Miqiu, but he also knows the truth.

"click, click, click"

At this time, a knock on the door interrupted Carust's thinking.

"Come in."

As Carust's voice fell, a subordinate pushed in the door.

"Polke, how are things going?"

Callust called the name of the subordinate and asked. Polk was the person in charge of following up the famous German scientist. The main reason is to recruit these famous people in the scientific community to Romania to improve the level of domestic science. However, the competition he faces is also very fierce. Countries such as Britain, France and the United States are also fighting these people's ideas, and Germany is retaining them.

It is not easy to attract these scientific giants to Romania, but as long as one succeeds, it is profitable for Romania. This is just like the superstars of later football clubs. If you can introduce them, you will earn money. Not too much in terms of its scientific field or Romania's reputation.

"There is not much progress at present. Many people are politely rejecting it, and only a few are considering it. However, we have too many competitors and the conditions are not very good, which is very troublesome."

Polk's words also poured out the current embarrassment of Romania in the field of science. That is, Romania has too few research results in the field of scientific research, and Romanian scientists are not well-known. Although Romania has increased its investment in research funding in the past two years, scientific research requires long-term investment to produce results. When Romania has not yet achieved results, it is still in the stage of expanding laboratory equipment to prepare for research.

This is also the reason why Romania has no other famous scientists in recent years except Rudolf Diesel, who was recruited by Edel himself, who was in distress at that time. And strictly speaking Rudolf Diesel was an inventor, not a scientist.

"Continue to follow up. These people are too important to Romania. We can't slack off. As long as there is a chance, we need to use 200% of our efforts to win. By the way, what's the matter?"

After Calust finished his request, he remembered to ask Polk why he came to him.

"We ran out of funds this month, and we need you to approve $20,000 in funding."

Carrust asked while writing a note for receiving funds. "Why does this month spend so fast?"

"Mainly this month, I ran a lot of houses in a row. When I visited Max Planck's house, I found that their family had a difficult life, so I decided to help them."

Polk says it is true, Max Planck is currently in a phase of grief. His eldest son Karl died at the Battle of Verdun, and his second son Erwin was captured by the French in 1914 and released after the armistice. The eldest daughter, Grete, died two years ago while giving birth to her first child, and the second daughter also died in childbirth this year. At present, only the second son and the younger son are left. It is worth mentioning that both of his daughters are married to the same person, which is simply the most tragic scene for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person.

"Go on, don't let our work fall behind the Vienna side."

Carust handed Polk the written note.

Polk took the note and said, "Don't worry, I won't let Vienna run ahead of me. But I heard that they have found many young talents there."

Yes, Romania is not only recruiting high-level talents in Germany. In the core territory of the former Austria-Hungary, Vienna has also arranged a group of people to do the same thing. After all, the disintegrated Austro-Hungarian Empire still has a lot of talents, but the funding is much less than them.

Facing Polk's inquiry, Calust replied: "Yes, the main reason for Vienna is that many famous scientists are highly competitive, so they have found a lot of capable young people. I know what you think, but we No more than Vienna, young people are looking for it, and those famous scientists are looking for it. You must know that our expenses are not much higher than theirs. If we only make the same achievements as them, then how can we show our ability before Your Majesty. "

Polk pocketed the note and continued: "Okay, I understand. There are just a few young scientists who just became famous, and I'll try my luck."

"Go."

For his own opinionated and capable subordinate, Carust is also quite delegating.

Unbeknownst to the two, Vienna had recruited a young man who would later become famous for his cat. Whether the young man will be able to publish the theory that made him famous in the future remains to be seen. But I believe this is not difficult, after all, the ability is there.
