Qian Xuesen's question: Why can't our school always cultivate outstanding talents?
This is a question raised by 94-year-old Qian Lao in 2005. In fact, this is also a torture of our social and educational system. This question is the famous "Qian Xuesen's question". This problem is actually very grand, and we can't simply consider it from two aspects: schools and students. It involves a country's entire education system, academic atmosphere, value orientation, and educational methods of schools and families. Basically, it can be said that the problem of money is actually a problem that needs national reflection.

Since Qian Lao raised this issue, from the education system to the social value culture, it has basically aroused social concern and discussion. Qian Lao's answer is that China has not yet fully developed. One of the important reasons is that no university can run a school according to the mode of cultivating talents for scientific and technological invention and creation. Without something unique and innovative, you can never produce outstanding talents.

This paper discusses the different educational aims, teaching methods and objectives of each university. The Indian Institute of Technology, for example, is called "the jewel in the crown of science". This is a school that specializes in training scientific and technological talents. It is also the most difficult university in the world. This is one of the important places for high-tech talents in Silicon Valley of the United States, which is why it is not difficult to find that there are a large number of Indian engineers in Silicon Valley of the United States, most of whom are from this school. As a school specializing in training talents in science and engineering, its engineering ranks third in the world. No wonder there are so many Indian technical talents in Silicon Valley.

On the other hand, administration has always been one of the defects of the education system. When calling for education reform, this is also the loudest voice calling for university dropout. The excessive intervention and management of scholars by officials can be said to be the reason for delaying university education. Because scholars cannot develop independently and are bound by power, even excessive ideas and innovations will die under the influence of power. This is the embarrassing situation we are facing now. Bureaucracy and official standards have penetrated into schools.

From primary school to university, bureaucracy tends to be in students' minds. I remember reading a news a few years ago that a primary school student got together and ranked according to class size and family background. It can be seen that the idea of official standard has influenced the growth of the next generation. In the university, the bureaucracy and utilitarianism of the student union are very serious. Obsessed with the fun and benefits brought by power, both students and scholars naturally have no intention to learn knowledge. Secondly, the rapid development of social commodity economy has also brought the values of the whole society into an era of "money talks". Money worship is prevalent. How many people have the heart and determination to learn?

Even if they make money, more and more people begin to speculate, hoping to get rich overnight.
