Education: The Last Frontier 教育：最需要开垦的地方 Rupert Murdoch e-G8 Forum Paris e-G8峰会，巴黎 24 May 2011 - Maurice, thank you for that gracious introduction. 莫里斯,谢谢你帮我做的自我介绍 Thank you as well for the invitation to speak today. 同时谢谢你邀请我来演讲 We are living through a time when many of our leading economies are not performing as they should. 我们今天处在一个很多经济强国没有尽到他们责任的时代。 To this challenge, this audience brings the promise of digital and the spirit of innovation. So I know you are all as pleased as I am that the G-8 leaders have made your contributions to economic growth a priority for their meeting this week. 为了迎接这个挑战，现场在座的各位都带来了他们的在电子创新领域的承诺和精神。G-8的领导人们在这次峰会上把你们对经济的贡献作为一项重要的议程，我也为各位开心， In particular, I wish to thank President Sarkozy and our French hosts. Not only have they provided this magnificent setting, they remind us of a truth reflected in the proud history of this great nation: that artists and creators add great value to society. We hope the G-8 will strongly affirm that the property rights of artists and creators are more than a matter of protecting cultures. In this new century, they are essential requirements for a dynamic economy and the digital future. 在此我特别想感谢法国总统Sarkozy 和我们的法国东道主。他们不仅为我们提供了这样宏伟的场地，同时也提醒了我们这个伟大国家背后的优良传统：艺术家和创作者为社会带了巨大的贡献。我们也希望G-8能够强有力的保障艺术家和创作者的版权。这不仅仅是保护版权，更是在保护我们的文化。在这个新时代，这是保证未来一个充满活力的电子经济发展的必要前提。 That digital future - and its connection with education - is my topic this afternoon. 科技和教育的关系，是我今天演讲的主题。 Every CEO will tell you that we compete in a world that is changing faster than ever. That it is more competitive than ever and that it rewards success and punishes failure to a greater degree than ever before. 每一个CEO都会告诉你这个世界比以往任何一个时期变化要快。竞争更加激烈，胜者王，败者寇，在这个时代尤为明显。 In other words, our world is increasingly, and rightly, a world of merit. In such a world, the greatest challenge for any enterprise is human capital: how to find it, develop it and keep it. 换一个说法，今天的世界是一个人才的世界。在这个世界里，所有企业面临最大的挑战就是人才资源：怎么样找到人才，培养人才和留住人才。 No one in this room nee
