Vol 4 Chapter 20: Education reform

A few ridicules can be regarded as Luo Feng's criticism of the ninjas' poor acting skills. He vented his dissatisfaction with their disrespect for the basic qualities of actors and expressed his grievances.
Luo Feng walked into the temporary Hokage office, Sarutobi Rizen was sitting at the desk with vigor, and he quickly got up to greet him when he came in.
Sarutobi leaned slightly, and politely greeted him: "Chairman Bredlow, you are here for your visit. Please forgive me for the poor reception."
Luo Feng followed his example, and leaned slightly: "Master Hokage does not need to be polite. These days, I have also felt the sincerity of Konoha Village. I have been in Konoha Village for a few days, thanks to the care, and no matter how good he is It's too rude."
The two of them thanked each other for a while, and faked some compliments to each other, and finally completed the general procedure of meeting with senior Ninja leaders.
Originally, the Hokage office does not have a dialogue area. It does not have a coffee table and sofa like a general Toyo corporate president’s room. However, this time Konoha found out in advance that President Bradlow came to negotiate a contract and deliberately The Naruto office has a sofa and coffee table so that he can sit down and have a detailed discussion with Lord Naruto.
Sarutobi Sun led several people from the Dragon Chamber of Commerce to the discussion area, and humbly told them to sit down, and he sat opposite Luo Feng.
"Hokage-sama, please be blunt."
As soon as he sat down, Luo Feng went straight to the subject, really tired of the rules of the Ninja world talking around turns.
"Last night, the yellow-haired kid who kicked me, like Naruto Uzumaki, quietly came to the lodge to see me..."
"Damn……"
Sarutobi Hizen looked worried, and smiled bitterly: "Naruto didn't do anything rude to run into the chairman, right?
"That's a reckless child, who acted very improperly, but after contact, he felt that he was kind-hearted and his nature was not bad."
Luo Feng cooperated with him and said sternly: "He actually made me change my mind, thinking that Konoha Village still has investment value."
Sarutobi had long known what was going on, but at this time he was about to pretend to be extremely surprised, and said with joy: "Chairman Bradrow is elegant and elegant, can forgive the child's reckless behavior, and reconsider investing in wood. Ye, that's great!"
Luo Feng shook his head and said: "This has nothing to do with forgiving or not forgiving him. The reason why I terminated my investment was not because I got that kick. I decided to restart investment again because I saw Konoha's new generation from him. Character, I believe that as long as education is strengthened and children are allowed to read more, Konoha's atmosphere will gradually change."
"Oh, read more?"
Sarutobi Hizen took a breath, and Su Rong asked, "Does President Bredro have any thoughts on the education policy of Konoha Village?"
"I can understand the educational policy of the Ninja School. The Ninja World has a short period of peace and a long period of war. There is nothing wrong with cultivating talents to focus on force. But for foreign investors, a peaceful and stable environment and solid basic education are particularly important."
Luo Feng said with a smile: "The chaos of war is your own problem. It has nothing to do with us. The need for highly educated talents is our business, but you must meet them. If you can't meet our needs, investment will naturally be impossible. The Shulong Chamber of Commerce cannot understand the status quo of the Shinobi world. We are here to invest, not to do charity, and we do not need to consider your difficulties."
Sarutobi Hizen sighed, but he couldn't find a suitable explanation to refute.
What President Bradlow said was from the perspective of foreign investors, and it made sense.
If a large investment is smashed, it will be destroyed by war before it has any results. Any investor will worry about investing in the construction of factories and R&D centers, but cannot find suitable local highly educated talents to operate. No matter how well the infrastructure is built, there will be no talents. Support is also in vain.
Foreign investors are not philanthropists, so they don't need to be considerate of Konoha's difficulties, but Konoha must be considerate of investors' concerns. Otherwise, Konoha can't tell what is wrong.
You can’t just think that if you don’t invest, you just look down on Konoha, right?
Sarutobi nodded and said, "President Bredlow said that you have already planned to invest, so you must have a strategy in mind. Please advise. How can Konoha change to win investment?"
"Kinoha Village's education policy, I, an outsider, had no right to be betrayed."
Luo Feng said solemnly: "Since Master Hokage asked, I will put forward some immature opinions for your reference."
"First of all, the ninja school graduation exam should strengthen the grading ratio of cultural courses and basic science courses, at least equal to ninjutsu, physical skills and ninja knowledge."
"Secondly, after ninja students become official ninjas, they must organize cultural courses every year, and don’t devote all their time to completing tasks, practicing, and studying ninjutsu. I suggest that you add cultural credits to the Ninja exam and rating. Consider that the senior title of a ninja must have academic qualifications!"
"Finally, children who cannot become ninjas should increase investment in cultural education. Those with excellent grades should enjoy the same treatment as ninjas to encourage them to avoid the folk learning atmosphere that tends to cultivate ninjas and does not respect knowledge and thinks that they read books. useless."
Every time he said a little, Luo Feng put up a finger, and after saying this, he already put up three fingers.
"Master Naruto, education is the cornerstone of a nation’s revitalization and social progress. Education can determine the characteristics and future of a nation. The Ninja world focuses on militarized education, so the people in the Ninja world are naturally combative, and the future will naturally be endless wars and never peaceful days. Cultural and scientific education will weaken Konoha’s military strength in the short term, but in the long run, the reward will far outweigh the effort."
Sarutobi Hitoshi's face was awkward, his expression tangled, and he kept smoking.
"President Bradrow, what you said makes sense, but..."
Did you know that Konoha paid too much attention to the training of ninjas, and that there were hidden dangers in the education policy of treating ninjas as the most important and glorious profession, but they were forced by the status quo in the ninja world.
Konoha Village is now in its weakest period. Konoha Sannin alone defected, and the two traveled around the world unwilling to return to the village. The Uchiha clan was destroyed, the elites in the village were left alone, and the talents withered.
Lack of high-end combat power, numerous internal contradictions, and crowds of external enemies waiting and watching, the situation in Konoha Village is at stake.
If you don't cultivate a young generation of outstanding ninjas to provoke the backbone, let alone the future development, I am afraid that the current crisis will not be able to survive safely, and the destruction will only happen overnight.
The resources are limited, and the time and energy of the students in the Ninja School are also limited. If they tend to one side, the other side will be weakened.
On the one hand, it is the status quo, on the other hand is the future. Both are very important and it is difficult to choose.
Furthermore, ninjas are the foundation of the ninja world, the actual ruling class.
Sarutobi Hisaki represents the class interests of ninjas. It supports civilians to obtain the same status as ninjas through learning science. Compared with the population base, over time, the ninja class will gradually decline or even die out.
If the power of science, as Luo Feng said, is stronger than the power of ninjutsu, then the ninja will also go into decline like a samurai.
Although he did not have such a clear class awareness, he was also sensitive to the impropriety, and instinctively developed a sense of rejection and was unwilling to accept it.
Seeing Sarutobi groaning in silence, Luo Feng sat upright and solemnly said: "Kiye Village’s educational reform and changing the'ninja-only theory' is a prerequisite for the Dragon Chamber of Commerce investment. This is not satisfied. , There is no way to talk about investment contracts.
If Naruto-sama is really embarrassed, we can also provide a little help, such as donating funds to the Ninja School, helping Konoha Village to establish Konoha University, and opening a "Dragon Scholarship" to encourage students with excellent academic performance in science and culture..."
"This is the greatest sincerity we can show."
Luo Feng opened his hands and said, "If Kimiha Village is unwilling to accept it, we will go to other Ninja villages. If Ninja Village does not accept it, we will go to Ninkoku Daimyo, if Ninkoku Daimyo does not accept it, we will go to the folks. organization.
I heard that there is an organization in the country of Rain. I really want to end the war and try my best to build an ideal country that only exists in fantasy. I may be able to persuade their leader to spend a lot of money to help him build one. The real ideal country, maybe they will be more interested in investment. "
