SFS 143. Money? Honor? Status?
143. Money? Honor? Status?
The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and some birds are hiding under the eaves to avoid the rain.
There are quite a lot of birds on the campus of Yale University, many of which Jiang Huaishu does not know.
But today's Yale academic atmosphere has not been extinguished by the rain, but has become more and more intense.
Top economists from all over the world flock to Yale, and the lecture halls are full of respected professors and economic officials from various countries, while the rest of the students can only squeeze in the aisle or the door.
This academic conference attracted many scholars and students from developing countries, who are eager to seek the "truth" for the development of their own countries.
Looking at the eagerness in the eyes of those students from developing countries, Jiang Huaishu was a little moved. He thought that the seniors who studied in China were also so eager!
The rationality cultivated by studying tells Jiang Huaishu to ensure "maximization of personal interests", the United States can provide better resources, and he should stay in the United States to develop after studying abroad, so as to realize the maximum personal development.
However, gradually, Jiang Huaishu felt that the blind pursuit of "maximizing personal interests" seemed to be a kind of vulgar taste.
The spacious stepped lecture hall is packed with scholars from all over the world.
Under the guidance and introduction of the staff at the venue, Jiang Huaishu briefly shook hands with the president of Yale University, some dignitaries from various countries, UN officials and several top economists who were sitting in the front row, and then sat down in front of him.
The projector projected the PPT of Professor Gemini Kone. He pushed his glasses and smiled at Jiang Huaishu.
Jiang Huaishu nodded and returned Professor Jemini Kone's kind smile.
Professor Gemini Kone on the podium straightened the microphone and said, "Hello, everyone. First of all, I would like to introduce a special young man. He is also the keynote speaker for tomorrow's final report, Mr. Jiang Huaishu!"
Jiang Huaishu in the audience was taken aback.
"Wow!"
The applause erupting in the lecture hall completely overwhelmed the thunder in the sky.
Although these days, whether it is the lectures and speeches of the bigwigs, or the various academic poster booths on the campus, they are all criticisms of "new structural economics".
However, academics have always been about things rather than people, and this does not affect Jiang Huaishu's status in everyone's minds.
The flattered Jiang Huaishu hurriedly got up and bowed to the venue.
After a brief opening, there will be a report by Professor Gemini Kone.
After the report started, the octogenarian exuded a strong enthusiasm and was as lively as a young man:
...Yt=Atf(Lt,Kt)
Decomposing the above formula, we can get:
GY=GA+aGL+bGK
If human capital is regarded as a factor input, the production function can be written as:
Yt=Atf(Lt,Kt,Ht)
GY=GA+aGL+bGK+rGH...
Growth method:....
Domar Economic Growth Model....

Jiang Huaishu listened carefully to Professor Gemini Kone's lecture.
Generally speaking, the theory of Professor Gemini Kone has certain value, but it is only the inheritance and development of Lewis' economic growth theory.
Jiang Huaishu was a little disappointed.
The hegemony of the western economics, "those who follow will prosper, and those who go against will perish" has hindered the development of economic theory.
If Mr. Lin Zhengyi was a professor of the United States, and then added "Western Economics" to his "New Structuralism", he would have won the Nobel Prize long ago!
For lunch, Jiang Huaishu ate with a group of bigwigs.
Of course, the steak is Western food. Although Jiang Huaishu is not used to it, it is good to eat once in a while.
Interestingly, during the luncheon, the president of Yale University told Jiang Huaishu that the egg tarts on the table were not freshly baked, but processed products of Longsheng Group.
Jiang Huaishu knew that his family's company had also started business in the United States, but he didn't expect that the family's factory also processed egg tarts?
Jiang Huaishu, who likes to eat egg tarts, plans to go home and eat the egg tart production line for a day after returning home.
Of course, Jiang Huaishu also has doubts: By the way, how did this egg tart get to Meibujian? Is it not bad? And is there any profit for this egg tart?
At the same time, mainstream media in various countries also issued press releases.
Professor Gemini Kone has once again been pushed to the altar, as if developing countries accept Professor Gemini Kone's development theory and will rise to become developed countries tomorrow.

All of a sudden, this academic conference on "New Structuralism Economics" was overshadowed by the Western economics represented by Professor Gemini Kone.
…
After lunch, Kang Yuzhu, dean of the Yale School of Economics, a well-known economist, and Jiang Huaishu's "uncle" invited Jiang Huaishu to take a walk together.
After the rain, the Yale University campus is more fresh, but the atmosphere on the campus is very impetuous and enthusiastic. Basically, people in twos and threes are discussing the report of Professor Gemini Kone and admiring Gemini · Professor Kone's theory.
Professor Gemini Kone is still very powerful. A few days ago, the critique of "New Structuralist Economics" dominated the mainstream. Now, "New Structuralist Economics" has completely become a "control group."

The pressure on Jiang Huaishu is really great.
"Are you sure you don't want to call me Master?" Kang Yuzhu looked at Jiang Huaishu with unconcealable admiration on his face.
Jiang Huaishu shook his head, "Master" is not called casually.
Kang Yuzhu got a little angry, and said: "You can completely shift the focus of tomorrow's speech to the theory of monetarism, and try to downplay the theory of new structuralism.
In this way, after the report, I will help you. At that time, other scholars will push it again. You can represent the theory of monetarism and sit on the throne of the Nobel Prize in Economics. You are the youngest Nobel Prize winner in history. What an honor it is!"
Jiang Huaishu shook his head, did not speak, and did not change his expression.
"Money? Honor? Status?" Kang Yuzhu spoke again.
Jiang Huaishu shook his head again. As soon as he landed in the United States, many people told him about "money, honor and status".
"What is the most basic assumption of economics?" Kang Yuzhu took a deep breath and asked.
"Economists assume that everyone is the subject of economic activities for the sole purpose of pursuing material interests. Everyone hopes to get the maximum gain with as little effort as possible, and will do whatever it takes to do so." Jiang Huaishu said reply,
"You know the truth. Why are you so stubborn? If you don't take the Sunshine Avenue in front of you, why do you have to take the crumbling single-plank bridge?" Kang Yuzhu said.
Jiang Huaishu said calmly: "Everything in the book is not necessarily correct!"
"Unbelievably stupid!" Kang Yuzhu scolded angrily. .
