Chapter 1234: What do I think?
Self-knowledge is more difficult than self-examination, because it is not only necessary to have a good attitude to face one's own mistakes and shortcomings, but also to have a tenacious heart that constantly affirms one's strengths. The topic of Li Jingming's speech is undoubtedly very "big", but it is indeed what these students need the most, and they cannot walk the road under their feet not because they can't walk, but because they don't know themselves, so they don't know where to go.
"The road I have walked, if I have another chance, I will not take it again, because at that time I must have a different understanding of myself, and the plan will not be the same, so this kind of road is naturally not suitable for you to take again. Everyone is unique in the world, so don't care too much about others, even if it is an idol, it is just a sculpture for people to look at, and it is never an object to imitate or follow. Li Jingming held his head high, and the podium was obviously at the lowest place in the lecture hall, but at this time, it seemed that he was at the highest, making all the students look up in their hearts.
"Alas, it's really embarrassing to be inferior to him compared to me." Wu Shixun remembered his "willfulness" back then, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, he didn't regret it in the past two years, but he never felt that he was wrong, and now after listening to Li Jingming's words, he realized that he was not as noble as he thought.
In the face of the entangled money empire, the reason why Wu Shixun responded so fiercely was that he hoped that more people would take himself as an example, so as to change the atmosphere of the fly camp in South Korea, which is quite similar to Tan Sitong's "Yes, please start with the heir". However, Li Jingming is different, he encourages all people to follow their own path, not to think of any example, and not to care about idols, this is the spirit of humanism.
After Li Jingming's speech, the applause lasted for a long time, and he was close and lovely to the audience, although he never spoke out explicitly. But everyone in the audience read a sentence from his cheeks with a light smile: "I wait for my body to be free, who dares to be high." Only when all beings are truly equal, the word "self" has meaning, and knowing oneself and pursuing oneself is not a foolish act in vain.
In Li Jingming's speech, the sound outside the words is more profound than the meaning under the words.
Originally, everyone else's speeches needed scripts. The more important the occasion, the more there can be no omission, even a famous orator will not be confident enough to empty hands on the podium, but Li Jingming just walked up empty-handed, and there is nothing to sort out when the speech is over, "If the following is gone, it will become a Chinese servant, so there is still below, everyone has half an hour to ask questions, and I will try my best to answer your questions." ”
A lot of people are just waiting for the Q&A session. Although Li Jingming sees the newspaper almost every day and appears on TV every week, he is still the same Li Mystery, there are too many people who are curious about him, and almost as soon as the words fell, the audience hula raised a large number of hands. Several professors at Korea University were a little surprised by this, and the people who asked questions during their classes were two or three kittens, and the other people who came to give speeches never received this level of response. So they had to mumble that public figures are popular.
Li Jingming pointed to the middle position, and a girl first glanced around in disbelief. Then she stood up with a scream, her hands were shaking a little when she took the microphone, obviously a little overjoyed, "Is it me, is it really me?" ”
"This young lady, though I don't want to hear any difficult questions. But your question seems a bit too simplistic. Li Jingming made a little joke.
"No, no, it's not my problem." Everyone has only one chance to ask questions, and they are finally hit by luck, and if they waste the opportunity, this girl will have to cry. Although she is a nymphomaniac, she is not funny, and even fans can't ask questions such as what you like to eat and what type of girls you like, "I want to ask what you think of current college students." ”
"What do I think of college students?" Li Jingming pinched his chin and tilted his head, as if in deep thought, while the other students below also fell silent. This is not an easy question to answer, if the answer is too broad or a casual sentence or two is meaningless, and if he says too much, it will inevitably lead to controversy afterwards, and the impact is unpredictable, "My opinion is that things have happened, calm down." ”
Lee's answer didn't seem to have anything to do with the question, but after a few seconds of silence, the entire Supex lecture hall erupted in applause. Yeom Jae-ho applauded the most, and those in high positions have gradually moved away from the category of education and pushed themselves to the side of relying on politicians, and only in rare cases do they remember that they are a teacher, and they are only a teacher, as they are now.
With a good start, the atmosphere is naturally hotter, Li Jingming casually clicked a few people, everyone's questions did not seem superficial, and a very small number of reporters who entered the venue through public relations were already stunned, they didn't think that the questions asked by the children were anything, but they were surprised that Li Jingming couldn't ask anything, and no matter what the question was, he could say a nodding opinion, "The name of the professor is worthy of the name." ”
Many people know that Li Jingming's educational background is very bright, and he is both Harvard and USC, but at least half of them think that he is a "gold-plated" type of student, who makes him a standard chaebol background. Later, a letter of appointment from Harvard broke this rumor, if the gold can be plated as an assistant professor, those top students will not live one by one. At this time, he gave a speech and answered many questions, and everyone was convinced by his knowledge, and several people were ready to go back and listen to the recording, understand his train of thought, and then write a report.
Li Jingming looks like he is only twenty-seven years old, but in terms of life experience, he is already seventy-one years old, and he has never experienced old age, and his energy, memory, and attention have always been at the peak level, so even if he looks for those old professors who have been famous for a long time, he may not be able to force him in a certain aspect.
"I can't say that this is not good, but I am deeply troubled, so I would like to ask you what you think of the 'first class'?" After getting the microphone, a male student asked a very sharp question: Koreans have the most competitive spirit in the world, and it often happens that they harm others and harm themselves and pull each other's backs, because they have a "relative evaluation" system, and if they want to comment on this issue. I'm afraid that another speech is not enough.
The so-called relative evaluation refers to the absolute evaluation of the merits and inferiority, and only the relative results judge success or failure. If there are 30 people in a class, 10 people get 100 points, and 20 people get 99 points, then those 10 people have an A on their report card. The remaining 20 people all scored Bs, and a difference of one point would classify 65 percent of them as "inferior."
"I'm here to tell you about my experience." Li Jingming didn't think much about it, raised his head and organized the language, "You should know that when I was in college, I studied at Harvard University, and it was Harvard's business school, no, no, no. There's nothing to show off, the dilapidated building of Harvard Business School is ten blocks away from the LP Pavilion in Goryeo (in fact, Harvard's is not clear, Wharton's building is really broken). ”
"You hear me tell this story, it was not long after I went to the United States, because I was empty and lonely, I made an appointment with a friend to go to Woodstock together, yes, this friend of mine is indeed a beautiful lady. Don't tell Jessica about that. Li Jingming winked at the students, revealing that all men understand. "But unfortunately I stayed up all night writing a report the night before, and I slept until the afternoon when I received a call from the other party saying that she had gone to New York with a friend and asked me when I was going to go." The next day is Woodstock, and the flight from Boston to New York is only the 18 p.m. flight. When I looked at the time, it was only thirty-five minutes before the plane took off, do you think I could still go to New York? ”
"I can't." The student below replied.
"When I asked the fat bari next door to borrow a car, he thought so, and he shook his head vigorously and said it was impossible. But I was taught by my father from a young age that nothing was impossible, so I gave him Dorothy's phone number and exchanged the keys to his Ford Mustang. Oh, and Fat Barry and Dorothy are both nicknames. Li Jingming shrugged, "From Harvard University to Luogan Airport, when the car is in good condition, it usually takes 20 minutes, but on that day I drove for 16 minutes, don't think it's easy, Massachusetts people also run red lights, and I almost knocked down an old lady." ”
"When I showed up in the airport lobby, you know, I didn't know what the expectation effect was, I just thought it was like a spell, and the more anxious I was, the longer the queue in front of me, so I ...... Cut in line, of course, I'm in line with a card, you know. ”
"I said to the airport clerk who was like a bank clerk, hey, I'm going to New York, give me a plane ticket, right now. Do you know what she says? She said sir, there may be a seat, but the plane is going to take off in five minutes, by which time they should have closed the door, and I can't get on board. No way? I shook my head, hey, you probably don't know who my dad is, he told me that nothing is impossible. I took the ticket, and of course, the phone number that the woman had secretly clipped in my passport, I guessed she was curious about my father, anyway, I rushed to the terminal as fast as I could, and then I happened to see the flight attendant over there ticking in the code to prepare to block the cabin door, and I yelled 'Thief dare!' She stopped, and said, sir, the door is about to close, and it is impossible for you to board again. ”
"No way, do you remember what my dad said?"
"Nothing is impossible!" The students below followed suit.
"Yes, I went in, because I am Li Jingming, and I am Li Xuan's son. Of course, a man like me has to fly in first class, I sat in the seat that was a little wide for my size, and I was satisfied and called the flight attendant, don't fantasize, there are only air attendants on the plane in the United States, but this does not affect my good mood, I ordered a glass of Lafite in '82, although I was told that there was only cola, coffee and mineral water on the plane, but I was still quite happy, until the captain's voice sounded in the loudspeaker: Welcome to call it Flight 5423 to Los Angeles...... That's when I remembered that I arrived too late and didn't check in, you know, flying from Boston to Los Angeles, that was that far away. Li Jingming stretched out his arms and gestured to the maximum distance he could draw.
"Does this story have anything to do with the question? No, it mattered, I was in first class and also on the plane to Los Angeles. Li Jingming waited for a few seconds and saw that the students were thoughtful one by one before continuing, "Our life is like taking a flight, going through hardships and dangers, overcoming a lot of impossibilities, but in the end, everything is decided not by what level you sit in, but by whether you sit in the right plane or not." Many people seek to be first-class, live in the most luxurious houses, wear the best clothes, and eat the most delicious food...... But is this the right flight? ”
"Now, what do you think of 'first-class'?" Li Jingming's story is of course made up, but this story is very exciting. (To be continued.) )
