Chapter 945: Founding a University
A meeting was held with the joy of the guests and hosts, and it was indescribably lively.
Under the enthusiasm, Kong Qingdong proposed to have dinner with Zhang Ning, Zhang Ning planned to go back, but it was not good to save face, so they left the CCTV office building together, found a restaurant, and chatted while eating.
Kong Qingdong drank a good amount, I don't know if he was happy or what today, every time he raised his glass, he drank so well.
"Zhang Ning, let me tell you. You say that we literati, if you want to say who you admire, you really can't find it. Sometimes, I know that the other party is stronger than myself, but the literati are not convinced. However, for you, I, Kong Qingdong, am really convinced. ”
Kong Qingdong didn't know if he was drunk or what, he held the wine glass and burped, but he said loudly.
"Professor Kong, you can't be drunk."
"I'm not drunk."
"Lao Yi, you know, I've never been drunk, right?"
As he spoke, Kong Qingdong also looked at Yi Zhongtian on the side.
"Yes, yes, yes, Kong Lao Er, you have always been a thousand cups and not drunk."
Yi Zhongtian smiled helplessly on the side.
Obviously, Kong Qingdong's drunken appearance is not the first time he has encountered it.
Kong Qingdong took another drink, "However, I don't admire you for your achievements in business. Do you know what I admire about you? ”
"Professor Kong, what do you admire about me?"
According to Kong Qingdong's words, Zhang Ning asked.
"What I admire is your recent audacity to publicly denounce the problem of education in the country."
"You know, I've wanted to say those things about you for a long time. But I didn't dare to say it. ”
"Really, I really fucking want to be like you, yelling at these school leaders and those pretending to be forced education, have the ability, compare with Harvard University in the United States."
"It's a pity that I haven't dared to say these words."
As he spoke, Kong Qingdong lay on the table and fell asleep.
The whole scene became a little embarrassing, but Yi Zhongtian slowed down and said, "Zhang Ning, don't mind, Kong Lao Er is like this when he gets drunk." ”
"However, although Kong Lao Er is drunk, after he is drunk, what he likes most is to tell the truth."
"I see."
Zhang Ning nodded.
Kong Qingdong is a person, Zhang Ning has some understanding.
Kong Qingdong is said to be the great-great-grandson of Confucius for dozens of generations, and he is a relatively funny person and a man of temperament.
Such a person has no bad intentions, nor does he have any careful eyes, and he is very suitable for learning.
However, Kong Qingdong's words once again dug up Zhang Ning's attention to education.
Although domestic education is not Zhang Ning's career, it is a century-old cause based on education.
In his lifetime, Zhang Ning can build Penguin into the world's top giant.
But when you die, who will take over the penguins?
This is a question that Zhang Ning has been considering.
If this were placed in the United States, Zhang Ning probably wouldn't have thought about it so much.
There are many, many geniuses in the United States, and if you look hard, you will always find them.
But in China, although there are also many geniuses in China.
But under the influence of the environment, such a genius is generally difficult to come out.
If the general environment of education does not change, Penguin Technology will decline one day in his absence.
"Actually, Zhang Ning, I also admire you."
"I may be more special if I don't admire anything, so I dare to say it openly and directly, because I'm not afraid of any trouble. Compared with many people, often telling the truth, you will encounter a lot of trouble. That's why they didn't dare to say it. If you were like me, I'm afraid everyone would have something to say and wouldn't have any worries. ”
"I can't say the same, there is too much energy in the country, but they rarely stand up and point out all kinds of problems in the country like you. And you are different. By the way, Zhang Ning, I also read your Weibo a few days ago, and I agree with the various problems you mentioned in domestic education, including academic corruption. It's just that I want to ask, I don't know if you have any thoughts on this aspect? ”
Originally, it was just eating, but unconsciously, Yi Zhongtian and Zhang Ning talked about education.
Probably Yi Zhongtian is also from the education system, so he is naturally more interested in this area.
Previously, Zhang Ning was more concerned about education because of the Wang Xinlong incident.
It's just that after Yi Zhongtian said it, Zhang Ning smiled helplessly, "I want to make some changes to domestic education, but our Penguin Company doesn't have so much energy to be able to sweep away these phenomena on our own." ”
"I think you Penguin already have that energy."
"Oh, what does that mean?"
Zhang Ning became interested, looked at Yi Zhongtian and said.
"In fact, the chaos in domestic education is not overnight, it is related to the artificial behavior of our Chinese, and it is also related to the culture of our people. It is unlikely that it will change in a while and a half. Even if the state strictly rectifies it, the results are also very slow. This can only be resolved through time and in the gradual progress of our countrymen step by step. However, I think that you Penguin Technology can be a model for this. ”
"Cousin?"
"Our Penguin Company is not a prestigious school, how can we be a good man."
Zhang Ning smiled a little sadly, and after laughing, he suddenly seemed to understand something.
"Professor Yi, are you asking us to start a university in Penguin?"
"Yes."
Yi Zhongtian nodded, "I think that with the financial, material, and human resources of Penguin Technology, you can completely establish a university." Of course, your university may not have developed much in the early days. However, I believe that as long as you are there, as long as you have the heart to devote yourself to this university. So, I believe that after a hundred years, no, it doesn't need a hundred years, and after 50 years, it may not be impossible to build a domestic institution of higher learning. Even, world-class institutions. ”
"Professor Yi, you ......"
Zhang Ning couldn't help but secretly talk to himself.
Yi Zhongtian really deserves to be called an academic superman in later generations.
This idea is more YY than himself.
"Professor Yi, this is too challenging."
"Haha, Zhang Ning, there is no challenge, how can I tell you. Besides, who else is your opponent in the business world now? If you don't find something challenging in the future, maybe you will be able to do your job again and go to entertainment every day. ”
"Forehead ......"
Zhang Ning burst into tears.
Feeling myself for a period of time, I was really considered by these experts to be not doing my job.
But it's also good, it's easier to deceive some tech bigwigs.
Zhang Ning didn't explain, and said with a smile, "There are actually many challenges in the business world, and I may not be able to defeat them one by one." However, what you said about starting a university is really not a trivial matter. However, as you said, if there is no challenge, I Zhang Ning will not do it yet. Professor Yi, thank you for your words to me today. ”
Zhang Ning had no idea of founding a university before, but after listening to Yi Zhongtian's words, this idea took root in his heart at a very fast speed.
"Zhang Ning, you are too modest. In fact, I would also like to see a Chinese institution of higher learning that stands at the top of the world in my lifetime. Pity...... Look at my age, I can't see it in my lifetime. However, seeing your appearance, I am already relieved. I believe that our Chinese education will be revived in your hands. ”
Yi Zhongtian looked at Zhang Ning and said firmly.
