I make a popular science video and all the emperors learn from it!

[Collection of popular science short videos 4. ]

[Fourth, the terrifying number of college students scared the ancients. ]

[Undergraduates are everywhere, and junior colleges are as numerous as dogs. ]

[In this era of fierce competition for academic qualifications, many people have ridiculed themselves, saying that going to college is not a talent, at best, it is just an individual. ~]

[So, how many people in China have gone to college? ]

[Is it true that there are college students everywhere on the streets? ]

[What kind of academic competition do young people in China face today? ]

[Are college students still considered social elites? ].

[Today, let's talk about the source of academic data, mainly based on the National Statistical Yearbook, the Statistical Bulletin on the Development of Education, the National Bureau of Statistics' education enrollment data, etc. ]

[The first question is, with a population of 1.413 billion in China, what is the academic qualification of people at all stages? 】

【As of the end of 2020, among the Chinese population aged six and above, 54.1 million have never attended school, accounting for 3.9%. 】

【There are 347 million people with primary school education, accounting for 26.4%. 】

【There are 487 million people with junior high school education, accounting for 37%. 】

【There are 221 million people with high school education, accounting for 16.1%. 】

【There are 112 million people with junior college education, accounting for 8.5%. 】

【There are only 94.16 million people with undergraduate education, accounting for 7.2%. 】

【There are 107.7 million people with postgraduate education, accounting for 0.8%. 】

【This is the current educational structure of China. 】

【It can be seen that the overall education level of the current citizens is not high. The majority of people have junior high school education, followed by primary school education. The two together reach 830 million, accounting for 63.4% of the citizens over the age of six, while the proportion of people who have attended college, that is, the population with a junior college degree or above, is only 16.5%. 】

【That is to say, if you walk on the street, only three out of every 20 people have attended college. 】

【However, it is also because our grandparents did not have such good educational conditions as today's society. Back then, those born in the 1960s and 1970s who could go to high school were educated people, and those who could go to college were the elite of society. 】

【And if you are born in the 1990s or 1995s and have not attended college, you have been left behind by your peers. 】

【This is not groundless, but is supported by detailed data. 】

【Let's take a look at the data of those born in the 1990s. 】

[As of 2020, there are 91.85 million people born in the 1990s, of which 37.08 million have attended college, reaching 40%. 】

[This means that the high proportion of junior high school graduates of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s has been broken for the first time by the 1990s. 】

[This phenomenon has appeared for the first time in Chinese society. 】

[The proportion of people receiving higher education is the highest, achieving a historic breakthrough. 】

[However, the number of junior college graduates is the largest, accounting for 20% of all the post-90s, while undergraduate graduates only account for 17.6% of the post-90s. 】

[So although the education quality of the post-90s generation has improved, it is still mainly junior college, supplemented by undergraduate, and there is still room for improvement. 】

【And the post-95 generation is even more terrible. 】

【For the first time, undergraduates in this group have surpassed junior college students, and the proportion of those who have attended university is over 50%. 】

【As of 2020, there are 74.94 million post-95s, of which 52% have received university education. This is the first time that more than half of the population of school age in China has gone to university, of which the number of undergraduates has reached 18.88 million, 420,000 more than the 18.46 million junior college students. 】

【Low education used to be the main group in society, but now primary and secondary education has become a minority. 】

【These are the great successes of Chinese education in the 40 years of reform and opening up. 】

【Although many people now say that everyone's education is generally high, the competition for education is fierce, and the internal circulation is serious, I think that if there is no progress and improvement in education, I am afraid that most people today will not even have the opportunity to receive higher education. 】

[In just 34 years, the education level of most people in society has been raised from primary and secondary school to university level. 】

[This is a huge progress and achievement. 】

[Society is progressing rapidly. 】

[As young people, we not only need to keep up to date, but also try not to be outdated by the times, whether it is our own subjective factors or objective factors such as education. 】

[Even if we don’t have great achievements, we should gild ourselves for our career planning. 】

[Change to keep up with the times. 】

·· ··········Please give me flowers···· ··

After watching this video, the ancients were completely shocked.

They all exclaimed.

"1400 million people in the future! More than half of them have read books???"

"Ah? This is ridiculous."

"What does it mean? People who have read books are useless in the future? What kind of world is this?"

"......"

............................................................................

Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng looked around involuntarily. If it wasn't broad daylight, he would have suspected that he was dreaming!

"Everyone in the future can read books!"

"1400 million people read books, what do we need so many scholars for?!"

Shocked by the number of scholars in the future, he also had several questions.

Does a country need so many scholars?

What do they study for? Are they all for the purpose of being examiners?

How can there be so many official positions for them to take exams...

Ying Zheng was immediately confused. For the first time, he found that having too many scholars was a rather troublesome thing.

...........................................................................

Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang's head was buzzing.

What?

Tell him that almost everyone in the future can read?

There are almost no people who can't read.

And judging from the situation, it seems that there are too many scholars, and even scholars can't find a good job.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very jealous: "So many scholars, come to serve us!"

"We are worried that there are not enough officials under our command. The more the better, the more the better."

The officials around him heard this and looked constipated.

Your Majesty, don't you know why there are not enough officials under your command?

Don't you have any idea in your mind!

You still want future scholars to serve as officials for you, but they may not have the courage to do so.
