On August 15, Chen Yongren and several leading actors came to Huaxia University, and Xixi was also handed over to Gao Yuanyuan's mother to help take care of her.

The opening ceremony of "Three Fools" will be held at half past nine in the auditorium of Huaxia University.

At seven o'clock, the auditorium, which can accommodate 1,000 people, was already full.

Before the press conference began, the scene was already very noisy, and the three hundred lucky students who got the tickets were whispering at the moment.

"Fortunately, I had a relationship with the student union and grabbed the ticket, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get in. ”

"yes, there are too many people. However, this is the first time I have attended the opening ceremony of a movie. ”

When everyone was chatting, the president and some leaders of Huaxia University also arrived, after all, they were filming in their own school, and they also wanted to see what Chen Yongren had done.

"See, even the principal is here, I really don't know how Director Chen persuaded the principal to allow filming in our school. A classmate said when he saw the principal come in.

"This seems to be the first time someone has filmed in our school, right?"

"Yes, so Director Chen is really awesome!"

"I'm really looking forward to this movie, I actually took such a strange name, the actor shouldn't be mentally retarded, right?"

"The devil knows, when the movie is released, you must support it!"

While everyone was chatting, the time came to half past nine, and there was not much prelude.

The lights in the auditorium suddenly went out, and then the big screen at the back of the stage lit up, and I saw two big words 'Study' appear on the big screen.

There was no host to make an opening remarks, and I saw Chen Yongren walking out of the backstage with a microphone.

"Hello everyone, I'm Chen Yongren. As soon as the words ended, applause rang out.

"Before I start, I would like to talk to you about learning. "I used to be a college student, and I had the same experience as everyone else. ”

"All the students here, as students from the highest universities in China, I believe that you are all high-quality talents and have received a good education. So I want to ask you, what is the purpose of your study?"

No one in the audience answered, Chen Yongren continued: "As far as I am concerned, the purpose of my study at the Drama Academy is to become a director and make excellent films, which is also my interest, my hobby, and even my belief. Today, I have achieved my dream and live a happy life, but I am still struggling on this path, because this is my career and my hobby, for me, filming is not a job, it is 'playing', so I have a lot of fun every day. ”

"However, I don't know if the old classmates I graduated with at the beginning are happy or not. There are many people who have not gone down the road of directing, and some have become teachers, and they are not taught directing skills. Some became screenwriters, while others changed careers to pursue other industries. Of course, a local tyrant like my old classmate Keiko said otherwise, for him, reading is not desired, it is purely to enjoy the pleasure of the process. ”

As soon as Chen Yongren's voice fell, someone at the bottom smiled, everyone was very curious about his wonderful classmate, but this person is more than Chen Yongren, and he is not in the entertainment industry, so everyone's attention to him has slowly decreased.

Chen Yongren continued: "Many people have never made a film after graduation. I don't know if they ever regret it, but if I were asked to give up directing and switch to another industry, I wouldn't be able to do it because I wasn't interested. ”

After Chen Yongren finished speaking, the students present were a little immersed, they didn't expect Chen Yongren to bring such an opening remarks to everyone as soon as he came on the stage, which was different from the opening ceremony they imagined. But the words are not rough, and it seems to make some sense.

Chen Yongren asked again: "So what is the purpose of your study? Are you interested in what you have learned, or are you just going to 'study hard' for the sake of a better resume, and do you have any interests worth spending your whole life to complete?"

This time, someone raised their hand, and it was a girl.

Taking over the topic handed over by the staff, she said, "Director Chen, I am a finance major, and I am now a junior. The purpose of studying this major is to get a good job after graduation and make more money. ”

Chen Yongren replied with a smile: "Thank you for this classmate." It's very straightforward, very direct and quite practical, the financial industry is indeed a relatively popular industry. ”

The girl said a little proudly: "Yes, this major is also about money." ”

"Do you think finance can make money, that's why you chose this major?" Chen Yongren asked.

The girl nodded and said, "yes, is there anything wrong with that?"

"No problem. Chen Yongren smiled: "Then do you usually have any special hobbies?"

When asked about this, the girl thought for a while and said, "Is writing counted? I usually like to write something, and I have published articles in newspapers and magazines, and I have also published a short story on Weibo." After saying that, the girl's face was a little proud.

"Writing, of course. Chen Yongren nodded and said, "Since you like writing so much, why didn't you apply to the Chinese Department in the first place?"

Hearing this, the girl didn't think about it and replied: "Because writing can't be eaten, and the income in the financial industry is very high, writing is definitely not as popular as the financial industry." ”

"Now that writers earn very well, how do you know that writing is not as good as finance?" Chen Yongren asked rhetorically.

The girl replied: "Now the salary of finance graduates is generally higher than that of Chinese departments, which is a general trend. ”

Chen Yongren didn't defend her, and then asked, "Then do you like the financial industry?"

"Like?" the girl smiled bitterly, no longer as happy as she was at the beginning, "It's not about liking it or not, right? Since you have entered this industry, you have to work hard for it." In order to live, there is no way to think about liking it or not. ”

Chen Yongren then asked: "Then let me ask you one last question, if there were two careers with the same rewards in front of you, would you choose to major in finance or would you choose to write?"

As soon as this question came out, the girl was stunned for a moment, and after half a ring, she replied: "I will choose to write." "In fact, when I chose to study this finance major, another factor was the opinion of my family, who felt that this major had a way out, and when I heard that I was majoring in finance, I felt very high.

"Alright, please take a seat. After getting the answer, Chen Yongren was not ready to ask.

After the girl sat down, Chen Yongren continued: "This classmate gave me an answer just now, a very realistic answer. Reading is to make money. I think there are many of you here who share the same sentiments as this student. ”

Many people in the audience nodded, going to college is to choose a good major, and then find a good job after graduation, and then get a good salary.

Chen Yongren continued: "However, how much hope do you have for your future, how much do you expect? Do you like it? Do you love it? Are you really ready to dedicate most of your life to this? If you find that what you have learned does not bring monetary returns, will you continue to study? If you enter the workplace and find that everything is not as good as you imagined, will you regret your original choice? You have no money and have lost your happiness. Or make a little money, lose your freedom, lose your fun. ”

Many people present were also silent, asking themselves in their hearts. In fact, there are very few people who really love their profession, and everyone chooses to give in to the present in order to make ends meet. If this can't make money, then do you have to stick to it? Probably not...

Suddenly, another female classmate stood up and asked, "Director Chen, aren't we learning these skills just to make money?"

Chen Yongren replied: "What are your professional and usual hobbies?"

"My major is financial management, and my hobby is photography. The classmate replied.

"Well, why don't you develop your hobby into a skill to make a living? Why don't you learn photography? Wouldn't it be better to do what you love, use this skill to earn money to support your family, and live a fulfilling and free life every day?" Chen Yongren replied.

This classmate was a little speechless and wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to say, in this society, many professions have been labeled, promising or unpromising, the choice must be to choose the promising.

Although he has also made money using the skill of photography, he will be considered unprofessional, so learning to be a financial assistant is the way out.

Chen Yongren waved his hand, asked the classmate to sit down, and said: "Talking to everyone about this, some people may feel inexplicable, what does this have to do with today's topic." Sometimes, the text may not be so clear and may misinterpret the meaning. So, I chose to use movies.

Early next year, I hope that after watching the movie, you will be able to give a different answer to today's question. ”

In the front row of the audience, the leaders of Huaxia University also didn't expect Chen Yongren to come to such a show.

Only the principal squinted his eyes and smiled, he had read the script and knew what the script was trying to convey, so he also knew what Chen Yongren wanted to express.

Learning and interest, learning and money, interest and money, forcing oneself to learn something you don't like for the sake of money, or learning something that you may not have money for the sake of interest?

"Alas, I really hope that Chen Yongren can make the movie out for the students to see as soon as possible. The headmaster sighed in his heart.

In his heart, there are indeed some problems with Huaxia education at present, but there is no way, this is a general trend, a general trend that is difficult to reverse.

In contrast, the principal felt that some schools abroad were indeed much better than those in Huaxia.

He is not admiring foreigners, and some foreign education policies are indeed better than those of Huaxia, which has to be convinced.

In fact, foreign countries pay attention to practice, while Huaxia pays attention to paper results. However, the principal also knew in his heart that if he hadn't used rote memorization to launch a group of high-education talents, Huaxia would not have become a developed country in just a few decades.

And now that Huaxia has become stronger, these sequelae left at the beginning must also be slowly changed, rote memorization, after all, it is not the best method, but it is unrealistic to change it all at once.

At this time, in the auditorium, the atmosphere was a little depressing.

For students, the main reason for coming here is to see celebrities, and for journalists, it is mainly to dig up news.

Now there is a star Chen Yongren, although the row is big enough, but no matter how he writes, he can't write anything new, unless he falls off the 'altar', and the news has nothing but a 'study', so most of the people here feel empty in their hearts, looking forward to some hot news next.

In fact, the reporters don't understand, it's a good start-up press conference, why not have a start-up ceremony, and then answer the gossip news in everyone's hearts, why talk about 'learning'? He is not an educator, just a director, and the style of painting is completely different from the previous one, so the atmosphere is a little dull.
