87. Professor Chin's home 3
Seeing Yao Yayao's ignorant expression, Associate Professor Qian sighed and said slowly:
"At your age, it's normal that you don't understand that much from reading this set of books. Have you ever wondered why this set of books is named "Three Rests"? Why are the alien group names in the book so strange?? Da Liu wrote this series of books, in fact, he is expounding his three life experiences! These three philosophical experiences of life are referred to as the three-body problem! In order to cover up, he deliberately removed a point of the font, and finally set the title of the book as "Three Rests"! The title of the book was not chosen at random. ”
Such words were like a thunderbolt, completely shocking Yao Yayao. He never thought that such a simple title of a book would hide such unknown merits and fame.
Associate Professor Qian's explanation logic seems to be impeccable, and Yao Yayao can't help but believe what he said, the "Three Rests" series is not just a simple science fiction novel.
In the two months since he entered school, he has been secretly shaded twice by his shadow roommate Li Xiaogang. And every time, his counselor, Mr. Fan Zhi, openly and implicitly persuaded himself to "silence is golden".
He doesn't have much experience of the last eight words of the twelve words that Associate Professor Qian is talking about now. But in the first four words, Yao Yayao has indeed experienced quite deeply.
"This set of books is given to you by the teacher. It is capable of explaining many things that the scientific community cannot explain. Memorizing these twelve words will do you a lot of good in this life. Many of the textbooks distributed in schools will only give you an understanding of the natural sciences. But a philosophy book like this will help you learn about the human sciences. Associate Professor Qian said meaningfully.
Yao Yayao's expression was still a little confused. In his cognition, "Three Rests" is just a set of amateur science fiction novels for recreation. However, Associate Professor Qian said that it can explain many things outside of natural science, how to understand this?! Although Yao Yayao has always been a scholar, it is a little difficult to understand at this time.
Seeing that Yao Yayao's expression was a little silly, Associate Professor Qian decided to give a few examples to break him.
"Kavin Laine, Steve Jones, do you know those two names?" Associate Professor Qian asked.
Yao Yayao thought about it for a moment, and then nodded affirmatively. These two names appeared in the book "The Shocking Hoax of the 922nd Century" that he had read, and he certainly had an impression.
"The two of them, one is the director of the steel identification laboratory under the National Bureau of Technical Standards, and the other is the chief scientist. They made public statements that all the steel from the two skyscrapers was coated with a special asbestos material to prevent the steel from rusting and fire. A short period of intense burning of the fire is not enough to cause a large amount of steel to lose its basic function of rigid support at the same time. Neither of them understands that silence is the law of the jungle between Kim and the Dark Jungle, so they both ushered in a dimensionality reduction blow. One was quickly laid off, and the other was quickly put into early retirement. Associate Professor Qian said.
"In ancient times, there was a famous man named Jin Shengtan, you know it, right? After the fall of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, the rule of the Sanqing Dynasty was ushered in. He also didn't understand that silence was the law of the dark jungle, so he organized a crying temple incident. Naturally, he also ushered in a ruthless dimensionality reduction blow and ended up with a tragic end of questioning and beheading. ”
"I have a classmate who is a professor at a university of finance and economics in Xianhai City. A very learned scholar, but he also doesn't understand that silence is the law of gold and the dark jungle, so he was hit by dimensionality reduction and was fired last year. He is unwilling to release water to some unqualified special students in the mid-term examination, and he is not willing to let some special relationship households become his mentoring graduate students. In some schools, they often don't need highly educated professors, they just need well-behaved and obedient professors. ”
Associate Professor Qian gave Yao Yayao three examples to tell him the guiding significance of the life philosophy of the book "Three Rests". Speaking of the last example, there was already a slight look of sadness and indignation on his face.
"In the standard textbooks issued in school, you will learn a lot about the types of mechanics. For example: tension, pressure, power, resistance, attraction, repulsion, centripetal force, centrifugal force, buoyancy; Another example: gravity, elastic force, friction force, gravitational force, molecular force, electric field force, magnetic field force, atomic core force. ”
"But you can't learn the other two special forces that control the laws of the human world: power and wealth. Only a philosophical book will make you understand what these two forces are, and how they are above all the forces of nature. ”
Associate Professor Qian seemed to be very interested in talking, and explained a lot to Yao Yayao.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, when Yao Yayao left Associate Professor Qian's apartment.
Walking on the quiet campus road, I held the set of "Three Rests" series of books given to me by Associate Professor Qian, as well as a laboratory photography atlas that I temporarily borrowed. Yao Yayao's footsteps were a little fluttering, and he clearly felt like he was dreaming.
Originally, he just wanted to come over to consult a few difficult problems in the textbook, but he didn't expect that Associate Professor Qian gave him more surprises. Yao Yayao felt that he had learned a lot of knowledge here tonight beyond books. And this is a valuable knowledge that he will not learn in any book.
For example, the book "Three Rests" hides so many secrets. If it weren't for Associate Professor Qian's pointing, Yao Yayao estimated that it would be difficult for him to really understand the philosophical implications of these books.
What Yao Yayao didn't know was that when he left, Associate Professor Qian was on the balcony of his apartment, watching his back, with a lot of melancholy in his eyes.
In the second month of admission, he was almost completely familiar with the three basic theories of mechanics in architecture, as well as a large number of basic knowledge of advanced mathematics, and Associate Professor Qian had not seen a genius student like Yao Yayao for a long time. But it is such a gifted student who will encounter more and more hardships on the road of personal growth.
Such genius nerds tend to be more outstanding in terms of personal intelligence, and the lower their personal emotional intelligence becomes. The light of their genius can easily be swallowed up by the dark shadows that extend from the boundless social reality.
Associate Professor Qian has another classmate, an expert professor Zhang who specializes in history at a certain university. Last year, Zhang happily told him that he was fortunate to receive an 18-year-old genius student who had published two historical monographs in his third year of high school.
Then, half a year later, the gifted student committed suicide due to depression. The tragedy of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man made the tutor extremely distressed. The mentor regretted that he had given him too much guidance in his professional field and too little guidance in the field of life philosophy.
Genius students who only cultivate their bodies but not their minds are delicate flowers who are easy to die, and they can't withstand the ravages of the real society. Rigid and unyielding, it is easy to break, and it is tempered and hammered into steel. No matter how difficult the knowledge in the books is, it can't help but make some tireless genius students hard. But some intangible knowledge outside of books can easily destroy their inner supreme faith.
Many suicide tragedies are caused by the loss of personal faith. There are many high-level intellectuals who commit suicide, all because of their supreme belief that "knowledge changes destiny". But sometimes this belief bursts as easily as a bubble.
So tonight, Associate Professor Qian deliberately explained a lot of things other than books to Yao Yayao, and he hoped that Yao Yayao would be able to comprehend some of them.
This will be of great benefit to his personal growth in the future.
Preach, teach, and solve doubts. The three vocations of a teacher are also.
It is a pity that the word "preaching" at the top of the list has long been forgotten by many professors and scholars.
There are many outstanding teachers in this country, but there are very few teachers who can truly "preach".
There has never been a shortage of Zhongyong prodigies in this country, but too many have died halfway through.
