【China's "end of the year" movie season begins】贺岁档厮杀惨烈 年底大片实力大PK
China’s "end of the year" movie season has just begun. And as always, big-time directors are rushing to show their works. "Back to 1942" and "The Last Supper" both hit screens this Thursday. Who will win the duel?
中国“贺岁档”电影才刚刚拉开序幕,和往年一样,大导演们都迫不及待的展现他们的作品,《1942》和《王的盛宴》都将于本周四上映,谁更能捕获观众的眼球呢?

Only four weeks are left for 2012. For China’s year-end movie market, the last hurrah is cried out by ’Back to 1942’ and ’The Last Supper’. Here we are at one of Beijing’s movie theaters and we discover both films, together with ’Life of Pi’, Ang Lee’s 3D blockbuster, share equally the screening times.
距2013年还剩四周,中国年末电影市场而言最后强势推出的是影片《1942》以及《王的盛宴》MpfoJ.IwI)t。在北京的一家电影院里,除了看到这两部影片外我们还看到了李安导演的《少年派的奇幻漂流》BR#p.Oec&^~+-T%Lw

Back to 1942" has a 210 million investment, and its Director Feng Xiaogang is also a good promise that has never been broken. What’s more, the film has a strong cast. At the premiere press conference, the director said he hadn’t thought of the possible box-office, because he didn’t want to under-estimate it.

Whether to experience the starvation in ’1942’ or to join the king’s ’supper’, the choice wouldn’t bother audiences for too long. Because there are 40 films following them.

On the same day we’ll also see the ’Guillotines’, a 3D kongfu fighting film. And Wong Kar Wai’s ’The Grandmasters’ has already postponed from December to January.

Feng Xin: In the last episode of Digest China, we asked a number of employers what makes it difficult for them to recruit workers, and more importantly, ideal workers. The experts we interviewed said the changes in China's economic structure and work force, the expansion of China's higher education and the dissymmetry in the expectation between employers and college graduates all contribute to employers' recruitment troubles. But what does the picture look like from a job seeker's point of view? While official statistics show China's available jobs actually outnumber job seekers, why do we often hear stories about college graduates unable to find jobs? Before getting into these questions, I'd like to take you to a couple of job fairs.

In March, My China Occupational Skills, or MyCOS, an independent research institute, conducted a survey of more than 250,000 college graduates from more than 2,000 Chinese universities and colleges. According to MyCOS, China had 6 million college graduates in 2011, and 90.2 percent of them found jobs six months after they graduated. However, the institute estimates that 14 percent of these employed college graduates are working in fields irrelevant to their majors and in the bottom 25 percent in terms of income in their local regions.

MyCOS categorizes university and college majors into red, yellow and green signs. Red indicates majors that receive the highest unemployment rate, lowest wages and most dissatisfaction from employees. Green sign majors, however, indicate the best ones in terms of these criteria, and the yellow sign majors sit in the middle. According to MyCOS's ratings, red sign university majors include popular ones like animation, law, biotechnology, biological engineering, English and international economics and trade. The yellow sign category includes majors like computer science, art, design, business administration and Chinese language and literature. The green sign category, however, includes majors like geological engineering, petroleum engineering, mining engineering, naval architecture and ocean engineering and auditing.

Feng Xin: We often see the situation of employers having difficulties in finding people they want, while jobseekers can't find the employers (they want). How does this happen?
冯欣:我们经常看到的一个现象是,一方面用人单位时常抱怨招不到理想中的人,招不到想要的人,而一方面求职的人又招不到这样的雇主,这个现象是怎么回事?是什么原因导致的?

W_XSI]gS8ayS5

Guo Jiao: This is what we often call a "mismatch." Like you said, it's a mismatch between employers' needs and college graduates' expectations. There are two sides of the story. One the one hand, take the green sign majors like engineering as an example. Not all universities can provide students with relevant training in a short time and turn them into the type of talent that industries need. Universities can't fill in the gap.On the other hand, those graduates, especially Chinese graduates, were made to choose certain majors when they were about to enter college. Their majors were possibly determined by their parents or even their high school teachers. When they do go to college – there is something special about China's higher education – if a student wants to switch majors or transfer to another college, the odds are very small, and it won't be cost-efficient. Therefore, the mismatch might have happened as early as they took the college entrance exam and first entered college.
郭娇:这个现象其实归纳一下,我们常说的一种“不匹配”,就是你刚才说的这种,雇主他的需要和有求职期待和意愿的毕业生之间,他们出现了一种不匹配的现象1#gv|C-(W%pS(EQMG6_。我觉得要从两个方面来看,一个方面就像我们刚才说到的那些绿牌专业,尤其是工程学,不是所有的高校都能够马上给学生提供这方面的培养过程,然后马上培养出这些行业所需要的人才,就是它不能补充这个缺口jA15EV8JV(P。另一个方面,这些毕业生,尤其是中国的毕业生,他在选择专业的时候,他在高中的时候,他选择的这个专业或学校可能是他的父母决定的,甚至是他的高中老师决定的,然后在进入大学之后,中国的高校有个特点,你转换专业,或者说你退学再去报考其他学校,这种的机会很少,而且成本也很高DuTH0,;AMD。所以这些学生的不匹配可能在他填高考志愿、进到大学以后就已经发生了*HgpatU@AVDk

3lrx|Qd^+FhYJy7x#

Under such circumstances, when a large number of graduates quit their job within six months, universities should be thinking whether they should prepare graduates with their first jobs or the jobs students will have in three, five or 10 years – the jobs that really meet each individual's prospects. These jobs may also be their last jobs.

If the mismatch between the job market's needs and students' choice of majors existed from the first day of college, is it a good idea to work in a field irrelevant to one's major after he or she graduates?

M-~]MU[nwY

Chen Yu: I don't necessarily think you have to work in fields relevant to your major. In fact, universities provide a sort of general training. It would be ideal if you could use some of what you learned in your major after you found your job. Even if you can't, your knowledge can still be helpful in some ways. In fact, it's more important to grasp some transferrable skills at college, which we call "core skills," like communicating with people and expressing oneself. Indeed, the most challenging task at the workplace is communication. The cost of doing so is very high. It applies to companies, as well. Communication, problem-solving, self-enrichment and teamwork – these skills are perhaps even more important than some specific curriculum.
陈宇:我不是很主张一定要和专业对口,反对学非所用cB&jW=KjSR[6.]dXL9。实际上学校是一种综合技能的训练,学校里面学的一些专业知识,如果到你的工作岗位上正好能用上那更好,不能用上,它其实对你也有帮助dp^TFL3ej=R3YAuyCw。实际上你在学校里面更需要掌握的是一些通用的能力,我们把这种能力叫“核心能力”u58+PFu0_;Dmp0]W1X。比如说,与人交流、沟通、表达自己,实际上职场上最难的事情就是交流、沟通、表达;成本非常高;企业内存在的问题也是这样l)wJ0k=p3uU&h@@K!p7R。你看交流表达、解决问题、自我提高、团队合作,这些东西实际上比你在大学里学的某一些专业课程可能更重要TWeaOH-Zz3[4XNvXP)

If transferrable skills such as communication and problem-solving are sometimes even more important than academic knowledge students learn at college, then what is the purpose of higher education? We directed our questions to Xiong Bingqi, the vice-president at the 21 Century Education Research Institute. He's written a number of books on China's higher education.
如果通用能力,比如沟通与问题解决有时比学生在高校里学到的专业知识还重要,那么高等教育的目的又是什么?我们就这个问题电话采访了21世纪教育研究院的副院长熊丙奇E@[nVX=XQ==N+=@。他曾出版过多部关于中国高等教育的著作R_,|Lj@Mjya|9G

WhuiDBkyI*K

Xiong Bingqi: There are three types of education: elite education, mass education and vocational education. At universities offering mass education, the boundaries between majors are mild. They mainly focus on developing students' basic skills and qualities. It's quite normal for these students to choose jobs irrelevant to their majors. I think as society develops, more and more students will choose jobs irrelevant to their majors. Under such circumstances, majors, in fact, are merely platforms where students can be trained. If you evaluate the efficiency of education only based on the degree of match between majors and jobs, you are quite outdated.

Feng Xin: You just mentioned "elite education". What kind of education is that?
冯欣:那您刚刚提到一个词,“精英教育”,什么是精英教育呢?

f#~nKICVXL

Xiong Bingqi: Elite education is not to cultivate the so-called "elites". Elite education is indeed mass education, which focuses on developing students' basic skills and qualities. Now these schools are considered good universities, because they concentrate high-quality education resources. Therefore, we now have formed a singular chain: Students have to attend good elementary schools, good secondary schools, good high schools, good colleges, and (will eventually get) good jobs. Only such a chain of personal development is recognized by the society.
熊丙奇:这种精英教育不是培养所谓的精英的,它实际上就是进行通俗教育,关注的其实是学生基础能力、基础素养教育的这样一些学校FudPpU!*oG*lq6(D)H(e。那么现在这些学校被认为是好学校,集中了优质教育资源的这些学校U0.wg84fK*H8。因此我们现在就形成单一的链条,从好小学到好初中到好高中,再到好的大学,最后到好的工作,那这样的话,只有这种成才模式是被社会认可的tli+%Ktqqy1CuqHk,

Feng Xin: You just mentioned we have mass education, vocational education and elite education. Then, my question is: What exactly is the purpose of higher education?
冯欣:您刚才提到通俗教育、职业教育、精英教育,那我有一个问题,我们大学教育的任务到底应该是什么呢?

Xiong Bingqi: In fact, it is to fulfill different needs and values. That is to say, to help every individual become complete. If we only focus on one of the values higher education offers – that of finding jobs or its utilitarian value – the spirit of higher education will be corrupted. As a result, the whole society will be dragged into a very utilitarian environment.
熊丙奇:它实际上就是满足不同的价值层面的需求,总体来说就是(使)每个个体更加完善F&tobN@H35C.;Avrc。所以说如果我们只重视了高等教育一方面的价值,就是它的就业的价值,或者功利的价值,那么这样就会使得高等教育整体的大学精神可能就会堕落,最后的结果就是整个社会会陷入非常功利的环境之中vQM.4t;iueR3

Dr Xiong, some college graduates we interviewed told us they felt very confused when looking for jobs. They had no idea what they can do or want to do. What factors do you think have contributed to their confusion? I think it has to do with China's entire education system and social environment. During the phase of basic education, a lot of students are taken care of by their parents and teachers in terms of everything. They are planned and managed. They rarely have the ability and sense of self-planning and self-management. Even when they go to college, this kind of education is still just scratching the surface. The Ministry of Education has formally required all universities to offer career-planning courses, but very few universities have really done that. In many schools, career planning means only one or two lectures about some policies. During university years, students can hardly analyze their personalities, skills, or career prospective.
冯欣:熊博士,我们采访的一些大学生告诉我们,他们求职时感到很迷茫,说不知道自己能做什么、想做什么,您认为造成的大学生这种迷茫的原因是什么呢?我觉得这跟我们整个中国的教育体系和社会环境是有关系的UmXXpRkisa8LQB=w。因为在基础教育阶段,我们很多的学生,他们实际上是被父母、被老师包办代替,他们是“被规划”“被管理”,没有自主规划、自我管理的能力和意识dNL.wN75FT1[.*4Q。甚至到了大学,这种教育也是蜻蜓点水的mP;lr8Z|za%Z&。我们国家教育部曾经发文要求,所有大学都必须开设大学生职业生涯规划课,但是现在真正开设这个课程的学校还是很少,很多学校对学生的职业生涯规划就是一两次讲座,往往就是宣讲一些政策fX-dQ7CS4p,6og.QM^。那么这段时间学生对自己的个性的分析、能力的分析,对自己职业的定位,都不清楚emkrgFAQZ[|6

Some students think it's good to have career-planning education at high schools, but this is meaningless at the same time. I took career-planning courses, I learned the importance of career planning, but in reality I can't plan my future. I want to choose courses that interest me, but do schools offer them to me? Or, do I really dare to choose those courses? They don't even have any room for choices, let alone the ability to choose. We grew up in a "planned system". But when we are out finding jobs, it turns into a "market system". It's time to make choices, but students don't know how. What's the consequence? The consequence is China's students, who spend 12 years working hard in order to spend another four years working hard in college, eventually become unwanted people in the society. This is the price we pay.
所以有些学生(对于)现在要在中学进行职业生涯规划教育,(这个)很好,但是觉得也没有意义3X%IK*hhsD81r*3;8r58。我学了职业生涯规划课程,我懂得了生涯规划的重要性,但是回到现实中我没办法去规划自己~.G|[1Wn9%HwA。我想选择我喜欢、感兴趣的课程,你学校提供吗?或者说,我敢选吗?因此,没有这个选择空间,就谈不上这个选择能力的问题@&%YnKIV+]x#~i)7。所以说我们一直是计划体制下成长出来的,然后到了就业的时候全都是市场机制了,这个时候你要选择了,所以说学生就不知道怎么选择了2)sg_,S;A8KxbLJOF1。这样的结果是什么?就是我们中国的学生,花了12年的时间努力地、辛苦地学习,进入大学,再到大学四年辛苦地努力学习,最后变成整个社会并不受欢迎的人,这就是我们付出的代价M#yoN;jz]O^s

Meet the Hills. Cindy and her husband Mark have just scooped more than 293 million dollars in the U.S. Powerball lottery. It's their half share of the total jackpot of 587.5 million. The couple, who have an adopted daughter from China, say they're now thinking about adopting another child. In the meantime Cindy, who lost her job as an office manager more than two years ago, says the whole family's trying to get over the shock of it all. SOUNDBITE: CINDY HILL, LOTTERY WINNER, SAYING (English): "I didn't have my glasses and I was thinking 'is that the right numbers? Is that the right numbers?' And I was shaking and I called my husband and said I think I'm having a heart attack and anyway, I drove to my mother-in-law's house to let her verify what I had thought I had seen that that's what it was." The couple live in Missouri where lottery winners have to go public to claim their payout. The other winner who bought a ticket in Arizona hasn't yet come forward.
