Nobody cares about the archaeological compilation of Dunhuang. What is the reason? How should the archaeological industry develop?

The news that no one cares about the compilation of Dunhuang Archaeology has caused a heated discussion on the Internet. Only six people signed up for a post in the institute, and no one went to the scene to take the exam. Compared with other compiling posts with thousands of troops crossing the wooden bridge, the post of Dunhuang Research Institute is really terrible. Of course, there is a reason behind everything. The reason why Dunhuang Research Institute has such a situation is that the archaeological industry itself is depressed and Dunhuang Research Institute is located in a remote place.

If you look closely, you will find that there are not many students majoring in archaeology, and even fewer can make a difference in this major. Moreover, many students majoring in archaeology will not choose this major after graduation. The archaeological industry itself needs the ability of students. Capable students must have the right to make their own choices, and they have the ability to decide their future workplace. Compared with Dunhuang Research Institute in the northwest, they obviously prefer to stay in coastal cities, and the living conditions and wages in coastal cities are definitely better than Dunhuang Research Institute. If there is a better choice, how many people will be willing to go to Dunhuang to suffer!

Of course, these problems are not necessarily insoluble. People study hard all their lives to find a good job, and the purpose of finding a good job is to make money. In short, if the archaeological industry wants to develop, it must improve its attractiveness, and the best way to improve its attractiveness is to improve the salary level and welfare benefits of employees. If engaging in the archaeological industry can make them gain high profits and strong social status, I believe many outstanding talents will choose to stay in this industry for development.

Of course, the progress of an industry is not easy to achieve. For example, if the archaeological industry wants to improve its attractiveness, it has to rely on the support of relevant state departments. China has a history of 5,000 years, and archaeological research can help us to know more about the history and life of the ancients. Therefore, I personally hope that the relevant departments can give more economic support to the archaeological industry and let us know more about the ancient history of China.
