Chapter 180: When Your Talent Can't Support Your Ambition!

There are a lot of anti-intellectuals in this world, and the more countries that claim to be liberal and democratic, the more they do this.

One of Eagle Sauce's doglegs, kangaroos have several extremely well-known anti-intellectual behaviors.

For example, when 5G appears, if the scientific and technological power wants not to lose the competition in information technology, it will inevitably start laying on a large scale, and the more ground base stations and communication satellites, the better.

And the kangaroo country actually went the other way, and a large part of the ordinary people did not like science, and many parades were held for this.

Running around with signs that say "Please don't let 5G hurt them, they don't want to live in radiation" and think they have the truth.

The terrible thing is that this kind of parade can gather tens of thousands of people every time, and the crowd of people is confused!

What kind of IQ makes people feel that technological progress will hurt them? Could it be that they think that technology that has not passed the standard will be able to enter the market?

There is no typical example of being severely beaten.

When one day it really comes to pass, it's too late.

Of course, these things are still popular with the Chinese people, after all, the parade is also a beautiful scenery.

In China, however, there is very little such a refusal to progress, because we have been beaten, and the truth that if we are backward, we will be beaten has long been engraved in our bone marrow.

However, this does not mean that there are no anti-intellectuals in the country.

Take a classic example - the moon landing.

As early as half a century ago in 69 years, the United States had achieved the Apollo manned landing on the moon, and then for various reasons, the exploration of space was slowly shelved, so that space technology has stagnated, and even lost part of the technology.

But anyone who loves science and cares about technology knows that the moon landing was real.

However, there is a group of people who think they have the truth, and they refute those who believe in this matter by asking the question "I landed on the moon half a century ago, why can't I go on it now?"

It can be seen that this group of people either has not understood, or simply has an "ostrich" mentality, seeing it as if they didn't see it, and then thinking that others can't see it.

If the moon landing is fake, then why should the world's scientific and technological powers aspiring to the moon help the United States hide it and not come out to expose it?

Which of the university students with strong science and technology came out and said that this matter was false? Have the technicians of the relevant professions come out to refute it?

......

"All of you here are either students from Tsinghua University, Peking University, or other universities in Wudaokou...... Now you are enjoying an elite education, and you must not make or say some anti-intellectual behavior. ”

"Educated people should get rid of ignorance and know how to verify, instead of distinguishing between right and wrong, and everyone is the same!"

As the speech drew to a close, Zhong Zixing took a sip of water and stretched out his hand to the student representatives below.

"I've finished my words, you can ask any questions."

As soon as the words fell, among the student representatives in the front row, a handsome-looking girl immediately raised her hand.

"Senior Zhong, I'm a foreign language major, and there's something that makes me particularly confused recently......"

"Please!"

"After the Andromeda intelligent translation came out, the simultaneous translator has also been introduced, and the daily communication between people and foreigners no longer needs to be followed by translators, and Andromeda has done a better job than people in this regard, in this case, is there still a need to learn foreign languages?"

This question goes straight to the hearts of all the people who are learning foreign languages on the scene and among the netizens who are watching the live webcast.

It has been almost a year since the advent of translators and network intelligent translation, and the powerful translation ability far exceeds that of relevant personnel, and after the end of the college entrance examination this year, the number of applicants for foreign language colleges has plummeted, reaching the lowest level in history, and this situation is likely to continue.

And those IELTS, TOEFL test training courses, educational institutions, etc., because of the damage to their interests, crazy smearing Neutron Star Technology, but the effect is not obvious.

"In fact, I have also thought about the question of whether I should learn a foreign language!" Zhong Zixing thought for a moment and said.

"Foreign language, for most people, is a waste skill, because you don't go abroad, don't communicate with foreigners basically don't need it, so I say to those who learn a foreign language and just want to communicate normally and be in line with international standards, there is no need to learn foreign languages anymore, because Andromeda translators do better than people!"

"Is there any need for the Foreign Language Academy to exist?" This girl seemed eager, and no one thought that the abilities they had learned were a waste skill.

"Absolutely!" Zhong Zixing replied in the affirmative.

"The current cutting-edge technology is still expressed in English, although there are all professional words in the thesaurus of Andromeda intelligent translation, the thesaurus is updated frequently, and the translation accuracy is higher than that of humans, but it is quite necessary for scientists engaged in scientific research and development to learn this language."

There is still a need to learn English before the academic achievements of basic science and technology, and one day, the scientific level of China surpasses that of foreign countries and achieves academic hegemony, then there is no need to learn English.

"But what about people like us who don't know science and are still learning English!" got the expected answer, and the school girl still couldn't help but want to cry.

Except for those who study cutting-edge technology, those who learn English are completely useless in front of the translator, and invest a lot of time, money, and energy to learn foreign languages, only to find that they can't compare to a translator of thousands of dollars, which is too cruel for people in related majors.

Zhong Zixing was silent for a long time, and said directly: "I can't help it, this is the inevitable consequence of the improvement of science and technology, is it because of the employment rate problem, do you want to stop the progress of science and technology?" Impossible......"

"The best thing to do is for you to only learn foreign languages as a hobby and move on to other majors while you are young."

The schoolgirl's tears flowed down on the spot, and the people around her hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

"Senior Zhong, I am a senior and will graduate in the last semester of next year, and I now have some plans for my life and want to start a business! So, what do you do to be successful? How to keep yourself from failing. A classmate, who was obviously different from his younger siblings, stood up and asked.

"It's very simple not to fail, if you don't try, you will never fail......" Zhong Zixing said.

"As for success, the word is too broad! First of all, it depends on how you define success, whether you make money, create a new business model, or have new scientific research results come to market. ”

"For this, I can only send you a sentence of Mo Yan, when your talent can't support your ambition, you should calm down and study; When your ability is not enough to control your goal, you should calm down and experience. ”

"Finally, I would like to send a word to all friends who want to start a business, don't take wealth as the criterion of success, success is not wealth but accumulation, and it is the meaning of your own life!"
