Is mediocrity wrong?

Ye Leiyang often thought about this question in his previous life, but he never got an answer. After all, mediocre living in this world is the experience of most people. Not all of us are able to chart a brilliant trajectory in their short life.

So for the matter of a few beautiful little white flowers ignoring themselves, Ye Leiyang looked very flat, although he knew that his current mediocrity was only temporary. God has tried his best to let himself go through the fork in the road of life again, but he does not let his mediocre life be looked down upon.

"There's a lecture in the library in a moment, you know?"

Seeing that Ye Leiyang didn't have any intention of talking to his beautiful roommates, Wang Meiyu didn't know why there was a hint of joy in her heart, and after thinking about it, she asked Ye Leiyang in a low voice.

Ye Leiyang smiled and nodded: "Hmm, is it?" What lectures? ”

He really didn't know about this, after all, Ye Leiyang hadn't studied here in his previous life.

"It's a tradition at the school, and every year when new students start school, there will be professors giving lectures in the auditorium of the library. It's said to be very good, and we're going to listen to it after eating, do you want to go together? ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Meiyu actually invited Ye Leiyang to join him, he thought about it, nodded and agreed.

Zhang Meng and Gao Xue glanced at each other, quite surprised, it seems that Xiao Meiyu has a good impression of this boy.

Several people finished their meals and walked together in the direction of the library. Along the way, Gao Xue and Zhang Meng occasionally muttered something to Li Xin, and from time to time their eyes fell on Ye Leiyang, who was walking at the back with Wang Meiyu.

Because it was noon, among the crowd going to the library, Ye Leiyang was very sharp-eyed to see a slightly lonely figure, still bent over, with his hands in his hands, his steps were very slow, and there was no school leader around him, which gave Ye Leiyang a very strange feeling, as if this smiling old man had no grace when he met alone, and his back was walking in the sea of people, but it was a bit desolate and heroic.

"Why is he here?" His brows furrowed, and Ye Leiyang muttered.

"Who?" Unexpectedly, Wang Meiyu's ears were very pointed, and when she heard Ye Leiyang's words, she asked strangely.

Ye Leiyang smiled bitterly, pointed to the old man not far in front of him and whispered, "Oh, that person, the principal of our school!" ”

"What?" Hearing this, Wang Meiyu was stunned for a moment, she really didn't expect that a principal who was in charge of nearly 10,000 people would be so inconspicuous.

This world is actually very fair, whether it is a high-ranking senior cadre or a wealthy family with a net worth of more than 100 million, after leaving their halo and integrating into the masses, most of them actually look mediocre. Maybe at some point, after you know who they are, you will feel that these people are extraordinary.

Maybe it's because of his age, the old man doesn't walk quickly, and the crowd around him is surging, and people bump into him from time to time. The old man had a good temper and didn't mind, so he walked forward step by step.

Ye Leiyang originally wanted to step forward to help the old man, but after thinking about it, he stopped, maybe this is the life that the old man wants, otherwise his old man can call a lot of school leaders with just a phone call, why should he be so low-key.

The auditorium of the library was very large, and Ye Leiyang walked in and did not go to the front row, but sat down in the last row. Refusing Wang Meiyu's invitation to let him go to the front row, Ye Leiyang felt that it was quite suitable here. Most of the people around are freshmen, saying that they are here to listen to lectures, but it is estimated that many people are actually here to skip class, after all, Ye Leiyang heard just now that the school stipulates that anyone who comes here to listen to the lecture does not need to worry about being named.

And this kind of lecture can be listened to countless times as long as it is a student. From childhood to adulthood, those boring and boring opening ceremonies, the content is much the same, either the leader speaks for the motherland, or the students express their determination for tomorrow, hundreds of people sit in this kind of place, the only happier thing is that you can sleep here casually, without worrying about being named by the teacher. In the same way, several professors on the rostrum who were the main lecturers were also there without knowing what to talk about.

Ye Leiyang lowered his head and finished reading the book he brought, and when he raised his head, he found that the old principal, who had not sat on the rostrum, was slowly walking up to the rostrum.

A big bodhisattva who would not have appeared here suddenly appeared, which really frightened the vice principal who was speaking on the rostrum, he hurriedly stood up, and asked the old man to sit down like a filial son and grandson, but the old man waved his hand, walked to the podium and grabbed a microphone by himself, coughed, and made many young faces who were drowsy in the audience finally raise their heads.

"Hello everyone, welcome to Binzhou Normal University."

The old man's voice was not high, but with the microphone was able to be heard by the whole auditorium.

Looking at this old figure, there was a whisper in the audience, everyone was wondering what kind of person this was, it seemed as if he lived half a century ago, and the school actually allowed such a person to come up and give a speech?

"The city we live in is called Binzhou, and there are many famous universities here, such as the University of Technology, the University of Science and Technology, and the University of Commerce, well, there are too many schools left, to be honest, I am old, and I don't remember very well. Of course, there are also people who know our school, Binzhou Normal University, well, become a teacher after graduation, right? ”

The students laughed, and they had to admit that what the old man said made a lot of sense.

It's just that the people who were still talking to each other on the rostrum just now had ugly faces and didn't dare to make a sound.

The old man walked to the rostrum, picked up an unopened bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, and then took a sip before continuing: "I have gone to college, so I naturally know what a prestigious university and an ordinary university mean to everyone. All of you here, you can enter Binzhou Normal University, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you have gone through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, and it is not an exaggeration to kill demons, after all, the score line of the college entrance examination is there, and those who can enter the Normal University will definitely have a good future in the future in the eyes of outsiders. Although mediocre, at least food and clothing are worry-free. ”

"And then, is that what you want? There is no doubt that the end of this life is death. But what about the starting point? Birth, high school entrance examination, college entrance examination, and entering the society, every step of this is a starting point. Some people say that you can sit back and relax when you go to university, but I would say that this is just the beginning, because in the next few decades of your life, you will find that university is just a starting point, a beginning to glory. ”

"The college entrance examination is over, which only means the end of the test of exam-oriented education. The test of life has just begun, but this time, you don't need to be responsible for your parents and teachers, you need to start taking responsibility for your own future! ”
