Chapter 1228: Equality that can be touched
It is said that reading is useless, and many college students in China who come out of school work for those scumbags who were in junior high school or high school. Because when you were studying, those scumbags had already stepped into society, and then worked hard to become small bosses.
This is actually a very one-sided statement, although there are many bosses in my father's generation who rely on physical strength and sweat to rise with low education, and some are even illiterate.
But now this is not an era that can rise by physical strength and sweat, you may not be too poor if you are hardworking, but the probability of being rich and wealthy will undoubtedly be much less than that of those with high academic qualifications.
Let's see if you have a high degree in school, regardless of whether you work with someone or not, and how much you earn each month. When you look at how high the income of those who have no education, and what position they are in, it is actually clear at a glance.
Some people say that 2,000 yuan can afford to hire a college student, but not an illiterate migrant worker. But migrant workers can only work for a lifetime, but your education can give you a higher growth ceiling.
It's just that going to college is not as much as a person who works in a factory, which has nothing to do with academic qualifications and has nothing to do with knowledge. It's just about you.
For example, if you also work in a factory, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can really add points to the education column when you are promoted. Even if you are a boss, under the same conditions, will you choose a person with a high degree of education to manage the company for you, or find someone who graduated from junior high school to help you manage the company?
So it's not that academic qualifications can't work, it's people who can't. There is an unrealistic arrogance among domestic college students, who feel that they are great when they go to college, and they look down on this and that, and even their parents who don't have much education feel stupid.
As soon as I graduated, I set all kinds of lofty goals, and then I was beaten by reality, and finally I no longer found the reason for myself, but shouted that it was useless to study.
This kind of thinking is related to the fact that scholars were held too high in the past, after all, if a college student came out in the seventies and eighties, it was really a gold country that rushed to distribute it.
But if you look at the continuous expansion of university enrollment now, the number of college students is going up, what about the quality?
Let's not talk about quality, in the past, college students were assigned graduation packages, which were really able to be qualified for this job, and even better and more promising than those who were uneducated.
What now?
In the same way, if you move bricks on a construction site, you can move a few more bricks than those migrant workers who only know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide, so the direction of comparison and the reference object of comparison are not the same thing, and then a group of people advocate that reading is useless.
It's useless to study, and those rich people send their children abroad?
In the eyes of a group of soft-kneeled Chinese, the air is fragrant in the United States, and those American tycoons have water in their brains, donating money to those famous universities in order to let their children go to school?
Even if you don't have the knowledge, you can still make useful connections at the university. What are you doing in college? I guess you stayed up late to hang out with friends, right?
So there is no useless knowledge, only useless people.
For example, the 36-year-old Adams Smith is a good example. As an orphan from the poor class, if he hadn't been admitted to Yale University with excellent grades, he would have successfully turned his life around.
If he hadn't gone to school, he would have been unemployed, like most children in poor areas, and then did some petty theft, and finally sent to prison.
And that's why there are so many refutations of the useless people who study in the country just now, except for the living example of Adams. also because he has a statistic in his hand.
This is a statistical data from kindergarten to university, there are ten kindergartens, each of which is in the richest city in the United States, with the most elementary and junior high schools, and high schools are attached to major prestigious schools, not to mention universities.
And in the list of these schools, the most conspicuous thing is the various school celebrities corresponding to each school, and even the proportion of wealth of the parents behind the children in these schools.
This is a very general statistic, but it is also a very heavy statistic. If Yang Dongxu wants his son to become a talent, not to mention that the school according to this statistical table starts from kindergarten.
Then Xiao Wenchen will be regarded as a scumbag in the future, as long as he can explain some sincere friends at school at the stage of occasionally yuan to junior high school.
After junior high school, I went to high school to stabilize my personal behavior and morality, so as not to go crooked, and then go to college to broaden my horizons. Even if you don't use Yang Dongxu in the future, you can live well with these classmates alone.
Therefore, going to school is the easiest way for people at the bottom, and it is also the easiest and best way to directly contact those who are in the top society. As long as you have good grades and work hard enough, you will have the opportunity to sit in the same classroom as these people. Instead of the two sides in real life, it is as if there is an invisible barrier, making the poor and the rich seem to live in two worlds.
There is a saying circulating on the Internet in the later generations, "The random person you meet every day is something that other ordinary people can't contact in this life."
The data statistics in front of me analyze this point from the other side. It is said that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes.
Even the son of a mouse, who grew up with these dragons and phoenixes, will be more productive than other rats in the future.
So the man in front of him called Adams who looked a little thin, although he looked a little ordinary, left a deep impression on Yang Dongxu at the first meeting, and at the same time refreshed the pervasiveness of this kind of world-class consortium when doing business, there is always a way to make you willing to sign the cognition.
Yang Dongxu never thought of letting himself go to school abroad, at least he wouldn't think about it before college, he felt that it was enough to let his son go to an ordinary school, and he would teach him the concept of life first.
When you need to broaden your horizons or set a goal in life, take a walk around. He has a very powerful Lao Tzu who is entitled to a carefree and happy childhood.
But I have to say that even if I have no intention of sending my son to study abroad. But seeing this statistical report, parents say that they are not impressed, it is false.
"Your straightforwardness is beyond my expectations, but since you've come to me, you should know something about my assets. So I have the ability to plan for my child's future. Yang Dongxu shook the document in his hand and put it on the table.
"It's natural, you're one of the most remarkable young self-made billionaires I've ever met. That's why I provide you with this information, just to provide some convenience for Mr. Yang.
There is no meaning of overstepping, you have your own plans, and I have no right to interfere. I just hope that Mr. Yang will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, and it will be enough to think of First Bank.
I believe that as long as Mr. Yang can give First Bank the opportunity to cooperate, First Bank will not disappoint you and will only do better than other partners. Adams had a humble smile on his face, but his straight back gave him an unyielding feeling. Humility is polite and personal, and does not mean groveling.
Besides, there are not many people in this world who make him bend his knees when he represents First Bank. The reason for showing humility is that the person in front of him is indeed worthy of investment from First Bank. In addition to investing in companies and stocks, First Bank's investment in talents is also a major feature, and Yang Dongxu is undoubtedly qualified to be invested by First Bank.
Of course, I didn't pay attention to Yang Dongxu before, and it was a big loss for First Bank, and the best investment time had passed. But if the two sides can reach a cooperation, it is still not too late.
So Adams' seemingly humble and quality attitude is given only to those who are qualified to speak to him. For those who are not qualified, he feels like he is wasting his life if he says more.
"I need to think about it, three days, and I'll give you an answer in three days. Three days of cooperation between me and those high-level leaders of Nokia will definitely not be good. Yang Dongxu leaned back in his chair and tried to relax himself.
Seriously, the first time I met Adams, the other party's performance was unexpected as soon as I came up. And in a very straightforward way, he made a good impression.
The exchange of interests is certainly fruitful, but it has to be said that Adams's approach to open negotiations makes him feel good not only because he hates it. The brain is uncontrollable, and in the statistics from kindergarten to college in front of me, it plans the path of various sons to go to school in the future.
Even if he didn't plan to let his son study abroad at all, whether or not to go abroad in college was just a choice. When the time comes, it will be up to the son's own opinion. But even if I don't go now, I can't help but think.
"Then I'll wait for Mr. Yang's good news, in fact, it doesn't matter if we can reach a cooperation this time. If Mr. Yang is interested, I can introduce Mr. Yang to some other very high-quality investment projects of First Bank. Adams stood up cleanly and took his leave.
Although it is aimed at the shares of Nokia's mobile phone business in Yang Dongxu's hands, it is good to be able to win it. If you can't get it, it's not bad to be able to reach other cooperation with Yang Dongxu, a newly rich man.
After all, there is cooperation and there is a common goal, and it can produce benefits. Then such a negotiation will have a corresponding report, and if a cooperation fails, he will give up continuing to contact with a very high-quality rich man, and even think about revenge or something. This is something that only the most mentally retarded fool would do.
Adams got up and left, the papers on the table as if he had forgotten them, and had no intention of taking them back. And when he left, he was very careful to settle the account, not to tell the assistant around him to settle the account. Instead, go to the counter and take out your wallet to pay the bill.
Yang Dongxu watched the whole process, and couldn't say what he felt, everything seemed so bland, and there was nothing particularly outstanding that made people excited or excited, but the blandness made people feel very comfortable.
Compared with Yang Dongxu and Adams, the first meeting was bland and harmonious. Karui was on the other hand, in an old villa.
There were seven people sitting in the living room, each of whom was a high-rise at Nokia. Because everyone is interested in the shares of Yang Dongxu's mobile phone business, Nokia's top shareholders have returned to Finland intentionally or unintentionally in the past few days.
Therefore, if it were a different time, everyone would really not be able to get together so neatly, and it was estimated that they would have to have a video conference in the study.
The average age of the seven is over 50, and even Karui is the younger one, who is 52 years old this year.
Two of the seven were women, frowning as the other five old men chewed cigars and smoked in their mouths. I don't know if it's because of the things Karui has raised that make them look solemn, or if these old men have made them have an opinion because of the smoke around them.
