Back To 2005 - Chapter 1308
Chapter 1308 The future of off-campus training institutions
“Mr. Zhou, hello. I’ve heard your name like thunder.”
Looking at the young man in front of him, Bai Jianyang, who was wearing silver-rimmed glasses and dressed in a refined demeanor, was a little moved.
When he was the age of the other party, he was still studying in school, but the other party was already the most dazzling new star in the domestic business world.
“That’s my pleasure.”
After the simple opening remarks, led by the middleman Chen Ye, the atmosphere of the three chatting was good.
“Brother Zhou, I heard from Lao Chen that you also opened a training institution?”
Soon, Bai Jianyang, who everyone was familiar with, talked about the training institution run by a young rich man.
“Well, when I first entered college, I felt that this aspect had a good prospect, so I opened a champion education.”
Listening to the other party’s chat, Zhou An’an replied with a smile.
At the beginning, Zhuangyuan Education was founded to earn a fortune to buy TX stocks, but now it has grown and is still the smallest industry under his hands, none of them.
The No. 1 Scholar education is still being expanded. Zhou Anan is not purely for making money, but for leaving the memory of his previous life.
The eight-figure profit per year is not enough for the fund in his hand to rise in the stock market for a few days.
“In the past two years, capital has aggressively entered the training field of off-campus institutions. What do you think?”
Bringing this question, Bai Jianyang stared at the other party with his eyes behind the silver-rimmed glasses, looking forward to the other party’s answer.
“There is a market for off-campus training, but it’s too much.”
After thinking for a few seconds, Zhou Anan gave a more pertinent answer.
Regardless of past and present lives, his training institution development route is steady and steady. Compared with the fast franchise route favored by some capitals, it is many times worse than making money.
However, Zhou Anan has never been in the education industry to make quick money, but he has no interest in franchising.
To make money, you need to make money in a dignified way, but to do education for the sake of making money is against his original intention when he stepped into this industry.
This is like pretending to be modest while being a handsome guy.
“It’s very incisive. My teacher and I talked about this topic two days ago. The second- and third-tier cities can’t see it for the time being, but the foreign capital in the four major first-tier cities is accelerating the influx of foreign capital into the off-campus training industry, and several companies with a market value of over 100 million have emerged. It is a chain institution. Off-campus training is certainly a supplement to school education, but once education is coerced by capital, that is not what we Chinese education circles want to see.”
Speaking of this question about his own profession, Bai Jianyang had a confident look on his face.
“Why don’t you stop it now?”
Unexpectedly, Zhou Anan couldn’t help but frown as he didn’t expect this future bigwig in the education industry to treat training institutions like this.
He is very clear that the influx of capital into off-campus training institutions will intensify in the next few years, and even give birth to many chain training institutions with a market value of tens of billions.
Education is coerced by capital, like a runaway horse.
Since the upper echelon is aware of this, why not restrict it at this early stage.
“It’s not yet the time. At present, these capitals are still within the controllable range, and the impact on traditional education is not too great. Development has its own rules. You can’t hold back and prevent it from developing as soon as there is a bias. , we have to look at the problem objectively.”
Bai Jianyang did not answer the question of the young rich man directly, but brought up a philosophical question.
“When it comes to capital unscrupulously attacking the field of traditional education, the top will definitely take action.”
Seeing this, Chen You on the side smiled and added: “Besides, Xiaoan, the direct sales route of your No. 1 Scholar Education is not the same as those chain training institutions that only care about making money.”
“This is indeed possible.”
I was stunned for a moment, but Chen You didn’t show any steadfastness on his face. Instead, he thought for a few seconds and gave a very likely answer.
Listening to the discussion of the two big figures in the education field, Zhou Anan felt a little inexplicably lost.
Before he was reborn in his previous life, he also saw some news, talking about the overheating of capital entering the education industry, but it has not yet reached the point where the country will take a strong hand.
It seems that it is indeed difficult for the education industry to become bigger and stronger.
Once the capital is overheated and the upper management feels that it is out of control, it is likely to be crushed with thunder.
“I don’t think there will be any problems in the short term. If capital wants to threaten the status of traditional education, it will take more than ten years of development. In addition, private schools still have a lot to do.”
Seeing the entanglement of this young rich man, Chen You comforted him, and then gave a development direction.
He knew that the private school in the hands of the other party was the real big deal.
“I still want to invest the profits in the next few years into development. It seems a bit too optimistic.”
Cleaning up his mood, Zhou Anan smiled wryly and talked about his original arrangement.
After all, he thought too simply, and did not think about the disadvantages of the expansion of off-campus institutions from a holistic perspective.
However, it’s okay now. The training sites in various cities in Jiang Province are in the initial stage, and the original strategy needs to be adjusted in due course.
“Old Chen, why are you still so naive in your thinking? Under the overthrow of the nest, there is a complete egg. Is there a big difference between off-campus training institutions and private schools? Both are products of the wanton expansion of capital. Once you start to rectify, there will be no difference. It’s nothing more than a gentler approach.”
Regarding this kind of debate involving principles, Bai Jianyang was not polite to his old classmates at all.
“According to your point of view, if the capital crosses the line, it may face a one-size-fits-all. What about those small off-campus institutions and market demand? It is not more difficult to manage if it becomes a guerrilla operation a few years ago.”
On this point, Chen Ye obviously disagreed with his old classmate’s point of view.
Drinking tea, Bai Jianyang calmly talked about his thoughts.
At their level, discussing the direction of educational development in the next few years is not just talking on paper.
“We in China have a population of 1.3 billion, with over 100 million primary and middle school students. The high school entrance examination and college entrance examination systems are still in place. It is impossible to completely eliminate the phenomenon of extra-curricular supplementary classes. Looking at the educational development trend of the neighboring Southern Dynasties in the past few years, if it is forcibly suppressed, it may only repeat the same mistakes. “
”The essence of the development of things is not static. If our generation doesn’t explore it, will it be left to the next generation, the next generation?”
“It’s okay to grope, but it won’t kill you with a stick.”
“It depends on whether we can guide capital to invest in the education market correctly in the future. Once we can’t control it, we can only use strong medicine for severe diseases.”
