Chapter 34: The Joy of Academic Discovery

Wu Wei went to study, Song Rou was very supportive, Wu Wei went to the university, where the learning environment was much better than the bank school, so that he was more persistent and hardworking, did not want to listen to the lectures according to the school's further study subjects, and did not want to take exams, by his own temperament he wanted to listen to whatever class he wanted, willing to sit alone in the university's reading room to read materials, to the library to borrow books, on many library cards are his first signature, take the initiative to contact the teacher to ask questions, and exchange views with students who are good at thinking. Some of his novel ideas were quickly recognized by teachers and classmates, and his diligent learning spirit was also recognized. Wu Wei's paper on monetary theory was also published in an authoritative journal in finance, and the school and the superior bank saw it and caused great repercussions. He wrote to Song Rou at any time to inform Song Rou of every progress he had made in his studies, and she was very happy to know that she was very happy to know it, telling him not to worry about herself, she and the third brother's family were very compatible. Wu Wei's only regret is that his newlywed life with Song Rou is too short, and he is very eager to go back to get together with Song Rou during the winter and summer vacations. The simple study life further strengthened his tendency to persistently seek the Tao, especially with Song Rou's company and care for a Luo inside and out, which greatly relieved the tension of persistent seeking the Tao, he more deliberately closed himself off, ignored other affairs, and gradually entered the Tao so that he realized the transformation from persistent seeking the Tao to persistent for the Tao, and he felt that he had found an academic way suitable for himself, the so-called academic

The way is to read, lecture, and write articles, be willing to be quiet, and the remaining problem is to persevere.

Wu returned to school after his further study and was arranged to give a currency class in the teaching and research department where Fang Guang was the director. One day, Fang Guang was sitting at his desk flipping through the textbooks on currency, looking at Wu Wei and suddenly asking, what is currency? Wu Wei was looking at the book, taking notes while reading, and answered without thinking about it. Fang Guang flipped through it again and asked what is the law of currency circulation? He replied again. Fang Guang casually asked a few more questions, and Wu Wei answered casually, answering freely, which made him realize that others were testing him. Fang Guang habitually squinted his eyes and glanced at him, secretly convinced in his heart, this kid did study well, he was really peeing, and then got up and went out. After a while, Wen Fang from the Academic Affairs Department came over, sat down casually and chatted a few words, and then said to Wu Weidao, I officially inform you that we have studied it, so you don't have to try to speak, and then you can talk directly

Platform.

He grew more and more confident on his academic path. He understands the problem deeply and talks about it

He was very popular with his students, and he walked up to the podium with his excellent memory and never brought anything to his lectures. This hand surpassed all peers and easily won the admiration of students. The introductory kung fu of teaching currency class is to be able to explain one sheep = two axes deeply and thoroughly, his explanation is unique, he said, the axe here is not used as a tool for chopping wood, but as a material to express the value of sheep, you can't always think of it as an axe and think about the use of the axe, this is abstract thinking, think about its properties as a value performance material, and don't think about other attributes. He even kneaded his own research and thinking into it, broadened students' horizons and enriched the teaching content. Unexpectedly, when he said this, he gradually heard the discussion and reaction, saying that he talked about Keynesian theory in Britain and Friedman in the United States, saying that he instilled bourgeois things in his students in class, and that he would cause problems if he talked nonsense. He said that these theories have no class attributes, just like guns, anyone can use them, they can be used well, we can also use them if we look suitable, what era is it, and they still wear colored eyes to see people and things, this is not misleading people and things, just like the mountain artillery that we captured the Japanese devils during the War of Resistance Against Japan, can you refuse to use it to arm yourself because the Japanese devils have used it, everything can not be absolute, it is yourself who suffers so much, and now we can no longer be stupid like the Gang of Four, The introduction of advanced foreign technology and equipment is called foreign slaveism and foreign flattery. He was still stubborn. He also wrote more and more articles, published at a higher and higher level, and his growth began to be revealed. Students commented on the depth of his lectures. He gradually developed a feeling of being at ease and at ease on the path he had chosen, which was completely in line with his own temperament, and he could master how to preach to others and how to lecture by himself, and he did not need to be signed and approved by anyone to write articles for publication. That's the kind of freedom he loves.

Wu Wei spent several years and was willing to devote himself and effort to studying the currency issue. He passed

His classmates and current colleagues have said that he has a very strong ability to think abstractly, and I don't know what he means when I listen to what he says. Just in time for the hot spots in academic research, the difficulty is focused on the question of what paper money represents, whether it represents gold, commodities or something else. One day, he sat there thinking about it, and suddenly realized that there was a limit to how much value the renminbi represented, and immediately further deduced that this boundary arose from the function of the renminbi, which is called the functional boundary. He felt the excitement and joy that he had never felt before, as if some excited nerve center in his brain had been developed, and the feeling of excitement and joy that this discovery brought to him was too important to him, and he did not expect that the discovery brought by his thinking would bring such an experience to himself, and the more he was eager to make new discoveries by continuing to think, so that he could regain such an experience, and imagine that there must be a more intense experience in his mind than such an experience. He himself knew very well that this discovery was not of the same order of magnitude as the concept of storage that he had discovered when he first came to work at the bank, but had been produced in the field of monetary theory, which was very difficult to study. He thought the question seemed simple, but after all, he didn't see anyone who had ever asked it.

He remembered that after Columbus discovered the New World, at the celebration banquet in the Spanish royal palace, some princes and ministers shook their heads after hearing him talk about the experience with great interest, and said that the discovery was too simple, not just a voyage at sea for a long distance. When Columbus heard this, he put an egg on the table and asked who could stand it up, and everyone took the egg on the table while studying and experimenting, but they all shook their heads helplessly, saying how could this stand up? Columbus took an egg and slammed it on the table and stood up. Everyone roared and gossiped, you didn't say how to stand up, who can't stand up so simple? It turns out that people feel embarrassed before things are done, and when someone makes them, everyone feels that it is too simple. Wu Wei couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, and when he met his past classmates and current colleagues, he told him about his discovery. He said that the unit of renminbi, for example, one yuan, represents a value that can neither be infinitely large nor equal to zero. The value that the element can represent must be greater than zero, which is easy to understand, and it is not easy to understand that it cannot be infinite. Once he talked about this topic to his classmates who used to discuss problems, he said that the value that one yuan of RMB can represent cannot be infinite, and we cannot arbitrarily say that it can represent the value of one ton of gold, and countless commodities with a small unit value cannot express their value through one yuan, that is to say, they cannot use one yuan to mark the price. The classmate immediately questioned that this meta could be subdivided into corners, points, or even centihao. Wu Wei quickly replied, you are subdivided, and there is still an upper limit on the value it can represent if it is subdivided to the smallest monetary unit. The classmate also immediately understood, and said with admiration, you are too abstract person. Wu Wei read the complete works of Marx and Engels, and read an article in which Marx quoted the words of the British Chancellor of the Exchequer on currency in Parliament at that time, and the minister said that there are more people in the world who have broken their heads than lost their love because of the study of money. He felt fortunate that he was able to study the world-level problems. He is still very influential and capable of driving in his small teaching and research department. He cheered up those young colleagues, professionalism determines destiny, and a person has stability and height when he has a professional development. It is not surprising that people who talk about money and study money have no money and no power, because Marx has no money and no right to live a very hard life, and he has to rely on Engels for help. Talking about currency and studying money will exercise our thinking ability, even if we have no professional attainments, we will gain in other fields in the future. He not only studies economic theory issues, but also studies the impact of money on people, he studies money in order to understand the truth, not money for the sake of making money, he knows the benefits of money through research, and he also knows the harm and toxicity of money more deeply, which makes him immune to money, he can study money fanatically, but in real life he is not fanatical and desperate to pursue money, watching many peers go to lecture outside the school to earn extra money, earning several times more than the salary offered by the school, he is unmoved, He did not treat knowledge as a commodity.

Wu Wei's view of knowledge is peculiar, he divides knowledge into noble and low-level, and correspondingly divides people into noble people and lowly people, knowledge determines the fate of people, and he is explained here that some people are noble because the knowledge they master is noble, and some people are lowly because they can only master low-level knowledge. The classification and stratification of knowledge, in the hands of those who have it, is an honor and honor for some, and cruel and unfortunate for others. His outlook on knowledge guides his outlook on learning and life. He was envious at first, then inclinative, gradually forming a preference, and finally fixing himself as a man who pursues and masters noble learning. When he was studying in a banking school, Mr. Wen fell in love with him, and he also saw that Mr. Wen wanted to keep him to engage in accounting together, but he was not optimistic that the subject did not get along, and later Mr. Wen wanted to contact him to talk about political economy, but he was already engaged to Song Rou, so it was enough. Now he was required to take the accounting principles test because of his exceptional promotion to the intermediate title, he felt the shallowness of this discipline as soon as he got started, and even the teacher who read his answer sheet after careful scrutiny felt wondering, good memory can help him memorize something, how can those accounting entries be so accurate and clear, and can also identify the cat hidden in it without losing points. For example, in the test questions, you need to deal with an accounting business, and you have to pay income tax at the same time as the profits, which is an accounting entry that needs to be processed step by step, fortunately he actually remembered the step-by-step record, although it is simple but also needs to be step-by-step, and afterwards it became a reason to show off to others, he got the highest score, and there are flaws in the highest score. He suffered a self-righteous loss, he read the textbook knowing that a small unit in the book would become a question on the test paper but did not master it, and in the examination room, when he felt that he was the only one who was not sure about the test question, he was honored to be asked if he needed help from a gunman outside. Behind the brilliance, there are also flaws, dark and filthy things paving. There are days and nights in a day, and there are two ways of life, black and white, black and white are not so clear, things are not always black or black and white, often black and white, good and bad, and flaws are seen each other.

He has a natural aversion to programmed things, which, while they bring order and tranquility, are often dull and rigid, boring and constrained. Diligent study does not mean learning everything, taking any book and reading it. The taste of a person can be seen from the books that a person reads. He liked the abstract philosophies, and gradually he realized the ethereal. The cost and enlightenment of development, such a topic makes people feel extraordinary when they hear it.

He likes to use a question in class to test the intelligence level of his students. Bad money drives good money is a well-known law, and the problem he raised is that the value of gold coins is greater than that of silver coins, which causes bad money to drive good money, so that students can identify and judge. Most of the students could not tell whether it was right or wrong, a few students shook their heads, and only one student was able to accurately state the reason for the error, and the currency whose actual market value was higher than the legal parity was a good currency.

Wu Wei not only studied those theoretical issues, but also thought about how to behave. He and a colleague who was older than him, Yongxiang, often talked about how to behave. Once, the two of them went to the field to participate in training together, and there was nothing to do at night to hang out, Wu Wei said to Yongxiang, Jin Wuzu is not perfect, that is the requirements of others for themselves, and he should ask himself to be perfect. What is the benefit of being perfect, a perfect person will be admired like a great man and a sage, but he himself can't even get out of this courtyard, he is too far away from becoming a perfect person, and he is ridiculed and derogated from time to time. Yongxiang because he is not suitable for working in the teaching position to the logistics side, a few years later he came to Wu Wei's office, I came and did not bother you, just to tell you a word, I have completed the retirement procedures, sitting in the office thinking about what has not been done, suddenly remembered what you once said to me, I touched me a lot, I listened to what you said and felt very happy, but I don't want to be a perfect person at all, but I inspired how to change my situation and let myself live a decent life. Later, I was ugly because of a test question in the test paper, and I actually came up with a test question that explained the concept of nouns, which caused an uproar, and they all laughed at my shallowness and ignorance, especially those teachers laughed the most, saying that how people like me were transferred to the school to be teachers was a shame for the teacher. I was adjusted to the logistics and general affairs post after a joke, and I felt very ashamed and painful at that time, and it didn't take long for Principal Cui to be transferred, he is a very talented person, and I don't have the ability of you, and you will become the number one celebrity when he comes. I know that he likes to play chess, you also know my chess skills, I want to get close to him by playing chess, often accompany him to play chess, you also know that the person loves face very much, sometimes pretend to let him, coax him to be happy, give face enough, he knows that you let him will also lead your affection, if you always win him will backfire, my strategy is true

It succeeded, and soon he promoted me to be the deputy chief of the General Affairs Section, and the official vehicle manager.

Wu Wei took over and said, yes, there was a lot of discussion because of this incident at that time, talking about you

Teachers can be promoted if they are not good.

Yongxiang said, I don't care what everyone thinks about this, after all, it is much more affordable than being a teacher, and many people, including teachers, have to beg me. Okay, I wanted to come and say something to you. Don't waste your time, then turn and leave.
