Chapter 127: Reading is Useful and Useless
Fang Tian felt embarrassed when he saw that everyone was looking at him, so he got up and left the dining table and went back to his room with his schoolbag.
Seriously, he's busy!
There is so much homework to do. In addition, he also wants to cultivate immortals.
He wants to complete his homework every day, so that he can spend more time participating in various activities organized by the school. If you have the chance, you can also take the opportunity to earn a sum of money.
Xu Jinhua saw that her son really couldn't eat it, so she didn't force it anymore. Seeing that her son didn't eat the food she gave to her son, she brought the bowl over and ate it herself.
Fang Bin and his grandfather only cared about talking, and didn't care about Fang Tian's affairs.
"My son-in-law (Huang Yun's father) told me in the early years that in the future, there will be no more universal education!" Huang Yun's grandfather said with a wine glass and looked at everyone, the wine glass stopped in mid-air.
"What do you mean by no more universal education?" asked a tenant with a limited level of education.
Huang Yun's grandfather explained: "In other words, there may be no 10-year compulsory education run by the state in the future! You may still not understand this! Let's put it this way! In the future, there may be no regular state schools! Only private schools." The state no longer forces others to go to school, go to literacy classes or something......"
"How is this possible?" interrupted a tenant on the spot.
"Yes, yes, uncle, you didn't drink too much, did you?"
"Uncle, you haven't drunk too much, have you?
"How is it possible if there are no state-run schools? If the state can't grasp education, where will the scientific and technological talents come from? Isn't it? Landlord! You must have drunk too much and are fooling people, right?"
Huang Yun's grandfather saw that everyone didn't understand him, so he quickly put the wine glass on the table, pressed his hands down, signaled everyone not to fight, and listened to his explanation.
"You still don't understand?" Grandpa looked at everyone anxiously and said, "My son-in-law said back then, and people in their circle are predicting, but the result is not realized? This is not the education model of Futian Private School? Studying is a profession! Just like other professions, you can earn money!"
Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, they relayed what Huang Yun's father and son-in-law said back then.
Is it useful to read?
To say that reading is useless is a one-sided statement. To say that reading is useful, that is also one-sided.
All in all, reading is to read, and basic cultural knowledge is to be popularized. However, there are some aspects of knowledge that should not be popularized. Popularization is a waste of time, a waste of children, teenagers, and young people.
And for some people, reading books is useless! Of course, this is also a one-sided statement! However, there are many books, and for some people, reading them is useless!
For example, the rich second generation, what do you think they are going to read so many books?
Back then, Huang Yun's father and mother discussed this issue with rich people in the same circle as them. Everyone's opinion is the same: the rich second generation is useless to go to college!
In this era, what kind of academic qualifications are not available? What kind of academic qualifications does your company want to recruit? Not to mention recruiting people with doctoral degrees in China, you just want to recruit foreign beautiful doctors, as long as you are willing to give that salary, you can recruit them.
So, what kind of books are you going to study, the rich second generation? You sit down in the chairman's office, who is below the secretary and manager? The people below can't bring profits to your business, so let them get out of here immediately!
You say, "You're a rich second generation, what kind of books are you going to study?"
Don't be dogmatic and illiterate if you don't read. Rather, superfluous books, books that are useless to oneself, can be completely dispensed with!
And many rich second generations and other people are just studying for their parents, elders, academic qualifications, etc.
They all go to school just to satisfy the wishes of their parents and elders. They are just going to study for the sake of attaining some kind of education! These books are of little use to their future lives, and they are completely ornamental.
If nothing else, let's talk about the present era! So many graduates from universities are engaged in jobs that are not in the right major!
Is this true: did they read the books they read in vain?
Not only did they waste their youth at school, but they also wasted the hard-earned money of their parents?
In those years of college, a good young man not only couldn't earn money, but also had his parents and elders to support you!
In the four or several years of college, except for making a few boyfriends and girlfriends and sleeping with a few boyfriends and girlfriends, youth is almost wasted.
Of course, don't be dogmatic about it, college is not about learning anything. Rather, most of the knowledge they have learned is of no use to their lives.
And for some people, during a few years of college, not having a boyfriend or girlfriend, not sleeping with a boyfriend or girlfriend, is it a waste of youth and a tragic thing?
"So, my son-in-law, they said, for most people, going to junior high school is fine. Popularize education, popularize the basics. Just like in the past literacy classes, you just need to be able to read a few words. So as not to go out, you can't tell the difference between the men's and women's toilets, and you run to the wrong toilet.
Then, all of them go to technical schools to learn relevant, targeted, and appropriate majors. Also, I want to study a major that I am interested in.
For example, these people, their major is not how to manage the enterprise well, but how to manage the managers, managers, and technical R&D personnel under them. You are a rich second generation and have a business at home, what kind of business management do you study? What kind of research and development do you study? You just need to learn to manage the management personnel under you.
And those who manage the enterprise and the R&D personnel are recruited from the market! In the talent market, doctors and masters grasp a lot of them. Isn't it?
If you are dogmatic, you must learn it! You will not be able to learn all the knowledge in the enterprises under your command. You may be old before you finish your studies, or the company may go bankrupt. Isn't it?
Of course! If you are interested in R&D, you can do R&D! This is the professional counterpart! There is so much knowledge, you can only say that it is a waste of time?
"This?" After listening to Huang Yun's grandfather's landlord's words, all the tenants were in the local area.
Although, they thought that what Grandpa said seemed to be like that. But what do you think is wrong?
For a moment, they couldn't remember: what was wrong?
"According to what the landlord said! Then, when my son graduated from elementary school, I will let him come and learn to do carpentry after me! If I take my son to work in the back, I can earn 600 yuan a day. In a few months, my son will be able to go it alone!
You've seen my son, who is only thirteen years old, and he's about the same height as me. Anyway, he can't study! He can't study! He is studying in his hometown, and there is no one to take care of the left-behind children! It is better to bring them out to work and earn money!"
"You say that's useless to study?" one tenant asked.
"For my son, it's useless to study! He said, "Studying is the same as going to prison, there is no freedom!"
