Jiang Hui's New Year's email is a bit out of place when the Celestial Empire's economy has been growing rapidly for many years, the stock market is booming, and the company is thriving.

However, many years later, many people turned up Jiang Hui's New Year's email again, and in early 2007, it was a point in time very close to the economic and financial crisis.

From Jiang Hui's email, you can already feel a faint worry, which will make everyone believe in Jiang Hui's vision even more after the crisis.

Of course, that's all for later!

After Chinese New Year's Eve, the next day is naturally the first day of the first lunar month.

Du Taiqing of the Sui Dynasty said in the "Jade Candle Treasure Book": "The first month is the end of the month, and its day is the first day, Yiyun Zhengchao, Yiyun Yuanshuo." ”

"Yuan" originally meant "head", and later extended to "beginning", because this day is the first day of the year, the first day of spring, and the first day of the first month, so it is called "Sanyuan".

Because this day is still the dynasty of the year, the dynasty of the moon, and the dynasty of the sun, it is also called the "three dynasties".

And because it is the first New Year's Day, it is also called "Yuan Shuo".

The first day of the first lunar month also has other names such as the previous day, the main dynasty, the third day, and the three beginnings, which means that the first day of the first lunar month is the beginning of the year, month, and day.

Early in the morning, Jiang's father got up.

Open the door to the firecracker, open the door to the door, first set off the firecrackers, called the "open door gunfight".

After the sound of firecrackers, the broken red is all over the ground, bright as a cloud brocade, called "full of red".

At this time, the streets were full of vigor and joy.

There is a big sound of firecrackers in the one-year-old, and the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu. Thousands of households have a pupil day, and the feeling of always replacing the new peach with the old charm.

Due to the requirement to be vegetarian on the morning of the first day of the new year, Jiang Hui got up and bit an apple, and after washing, he went to pay New Year's greetings with Jiang Ping.

The wind of New Year's greetings in the Celestial Empire existed in the Han Dynasty. After the Tang and Song dynasties, it was very popular, and some people who did not have to go in person could use famous posts to congratulate.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was called "thorn", so the business card was also called "famous thorn". After the Ming Dynasty, many families posted a red paper bag at the door to collect the name post, called the "door book".

The small mountain village where Jiang Hui is located is naturally not so complicated.

Since the people in the whole village are surnamed Jiang, and they are all a family for the past 500 years, there are many people in the whole village who are related to each other.

Naturally, New Year's greetings can't be so complicated.

For the neighbors, there are not many acquaintances who come and go, but they can talk about meeting each other, they only need to go to the courtyard, hug each other and say: "Gong Xi is rich" and "all the best", and sit in the house for a while, without much etiquette.

After two or three hours of tossing and turning, it can be regarded as dealing with the New Year's greetings.

Sweeping from the head of the village to the end of the village, by the time I got home, it was already time for lunch.

In the afternoon, I talked on the phone with Bai Xue and He Ling, and the whole day passed quickly.

The second year of junior high school is to go to my grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings, considering that it is impossible to stay at home for too long this time, Jiang Hui also took the time to visit Mr. Rao, the head teacher of the third year of high school.

Mr. Rao was one of the few high-level teachers who insisted on sticking to Wuxian No. 1 Middle School, and he is in his forties this year.

Mr. Rao, who graduated from the Department of Chemistry of Lingnan Normal University, can be regarded as a top student at that time.

At that time, college graduates, strictly speaking, did not choose a job, at that time graduation was still uniformly distributed, and you were divided wherever you went, no matter which city it was, there was not much room for bargaining.

When I graduated that year, I was popular and said: "I am a brick, I can move the rice in the southeast and northwest, I am not proud in the building, and I am not pessimistic in the latrine." ”

Although it is impossible not to be proud and pessimistic, in reality it is the case, and the room for personal choice is really small.

And Mr. Rao also returned to Wuxian No. 1 Middle School in this context, and stayed for 20 years.

When other outstanding teachers are constantly poached by high schools in Wuyang and other places in the city's No. 1 Middle School, Mr. Rao can still stay in Wuxian No. 1 Middle School, which is even more commendable.

"Teacher Rao, Happy New Year", Jiang Hui knocked on Teacher Rao's door with some gifts.

In his third year of high school, Jiang Hui had been to Mr. Rao's house many times, and this time after making a phone call in advance to confirm that he was at home, he went directly to the door.

"Jiang Hui is here, why are you carrying so many things?"

It was Teacher Rao who opened the door, although he was in his forties, not too old for a man. After all, according to the definition given by the World Health Organization of the United Nations, anyone under the age of 44 is considered a young person.

However, time will eventually take away the collagen on your face!

When I saw Mr. Rao again, he was obviously a little older than a few years ago.

"Teacher, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you still teaching the graduating class?".

Jiang Hui put down the gift and began to chat with Teacher Rao.

"After you graduated that class, I didn't directly lead the graduating class, but directly led the class from the beginning of high school, and then followed the sophomore and junior years of high school, and now it's the third year of high school."

"Then their students are blessed to have such a good teacher as you all the time."

"Alas~ No, whether it is the quality of students or teachers, I obviously feel that a year is not as good as a year."

The question mentioned by Mr. Rao is very real!

In the small counties of the vast underdeveloped cities, outstanding junior high school graduates are pulled away by the good schools in the city when they go on to junior high school.

Coupled with the outflow of teachers, it is becoming more and more difficult for schools in small places to get into good universities, which is already an inevitable trend.

There are many counties like Wuxian in the country. Because more than ninety percent of the population is in the townships below, most of the students in County No. 1 Middle School are also from rural areas.

As long as you pay a little attention, it has become an indisputable fact that the proportion of rural college students is declining year by year, and the proportion of key universities and famous universities will be lower.

Due to the uneven distribution of educational resources, some rural students have lost at the starting line.

From kindergarten to primary and secondary schools, there is a big gap between rural and urban areas, rural students are in a disadvantageous position from the beginning, teachers, school facilities, management level, etc. cannot be compared with urban students, and all kinds of resources are constantly concentrated in a small number of good rural schools, inappropriately withdrawing schools and merging points, resulting in difficulties for rural students to go to school, higher costs, difficult to support, resulting in an increase in the dropout rate.

Only a small number of students who can desperately be admitted to key middle schools have any hope of being admitted to key universities.

In addition, the number of college students has increased dramatically after the expansion of university enrollment, which has created a de facto difficulty in finding employment.

Although various colleges and universities claim to have a employment rate of more than 90%, in fact, there is a lot of water and a lot of employment, which is not credible.

Unemployment after graduating from university is no longer an isolated phenomenon, and the number is increasing.

For college students from rural areas, employment has become an insurmountable barrier, which has caused some rural children to be less motivated to go to university, because many farmers no longer believe that knowledge can change their fate.

Even if some rural college students find a job after graduation, the salary is very low, and even the salary is not as high as that of their father, who works at a construction site, and it is more cost-effective to go out to work early.
