They were lucky enough to finally step into the classroom at 1:58 p.m.

Today's class is a journalism major, but the location is in a lecture hall on the east side of the second floor. Because Professor Yao's classes are not confined to the traditional mode of full lectures, and often use an open mind to discuss the knowledge of journalism and communication, as long as his classes are attended, students from many other majors always come to audit. The school is also in line with the humanized idea of opening up the school, and "everyone's" classes are carried out in the lecture hall.

When Xia Wushuang arrived, he habitually walked to the back and sat down holding hands, and the front row was already full of people.

When the class bell rang, an old gentleman with gray temples walked in, dressed in gray cloth clothes. His teaching aids are very simple, a cup of tea is everything, and he doesn't even have a textbook in his hand.

This is the great master in the minds of the entire Chinese journalism and communication students - Yao Baisheng. Professor Yao, as a world-famous person, is never an empty word. In recent years, most of the talents who have crisscrossed the Chinese press circles, from those in power in the national news system, to the leading figures of newspapers and newspapers in the whole country, to the young reporters who have gone to the grassroots level to interview first-hand news materials, have all come from his disciples. The least is that I have listened to his teachings.

When the old gentleman walked into the classroom, it was Xia Wushuang and Shangguan Qinglin who found a seat and sat down.

The old gentleman coughed, looked around the classroom, and said, "Go to class!" ”

The students present all stood up respectfully and said hello, with a level of reverence, just like raising the national flag for the first time in elementary school.

The old gentleman put down the tea in his hand and said loudly: "In today's class, we will not talk about theory, but only discuss actual combat and news practice. ”

There was an uproar among the students, the journalism students were okay, after all, they had adapted to the teacher's teaching mode, and the people from other majors who came inexplicably were obviously a little disappointed in their hearts. Among these people, a considerable number of them join in the fun and go back to post a dynamic on social media to show off. Unexpectedly, the old gentleman did not follow the routine and was ready to fill the house with "nonsense".

"Ah, Professor Yao doesn't teach professional classes today" Shangguan Qinglin was a little disappointed, her major is forensic medicine, and she really hopes to listen to the journalism department classes across majors. Xia Wushuang gently stroked her back, and she was a little relieved when she was frustrated.

The old gentleman continued: "I have been in the industry for half my life, and I have basically been dealing with this three-foot podium and students who are eager to learn. Occasionally, I also deal with people in the government, but they are all my own students of Yao Baisheng. In my life, Bo has a name. But the name my father chose for me was Yao Bai. White characters, Qu Qiubai's white, my father hoped that I could be an aspiring young man like Qu Qiubai who worked hard for the great cause of the country and the nation. At the age of twenty-one, I changed my name to Yao Baisheng, and the name of Yao Bai was abandoned, do you know why? ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

In our tradition, the body, hair and skin are all received by parents, not to mention the name and title, all these are gifts from parents and ancestors. Not only Chinese people, but even in Europe and the United States, which advocate freedom, names are generally given by their parents.

Someone immediately stood up and replied, "Sir's intention must be to contribute to the country's culture, to be a real person, to learn from the strengths of a hundred schools, and to establish a saint for future generations." ”

Some people also replied, "I think that the change of my husband's name is not necessarily to abandon his father's entrustment, but to aim high and raise the expectations of his father to a higher level." ”

Some people say that the reason why Yao Baisheng changed his name was because he met a girl he liked when he was young, and he couldn't ask for it, so he changed his name to Mingzhi; Some people say that Yao Baisheng changed his name because of the country's household registration restrictions at that time, and in order to achieve a certain purpose, he had to change his name; Some people even say that the reason for Yao Baisheng's name change is very simple, according to the changes made by the Taoist Feng Shui characters.

A discussion about the name change lasted for 25 minutes, and the old gentleman stood on the podium and drank tea, watching all this in his eyes. Like an old farmer who has planted a field full of wheat and watched the vast sea of wheat thrive in the sun on dog days: his teaching philosophy is simple, to motivate students to think for themselves.

Even if you don't have a margin when you think, it's better than being led by the nose by book dogma.

"What about journalism students, do you have any ideas?" The old gentleman put down the teacup and asked.

Compared with the faculties of other schools, the Department of Journalism at Fudan has taken an elitist path, with only about 300 undergraduates and master's students in a single session, and it also includes all departments of journalism, radio and television, which can be described as a sparse population. Journalism is one of the departments, and the number of people is even more scarce.

A boy with a delicate appearance stood up and said loudly: "Chunxin thinks that the essence of news dissemination lies in taking the lead. Mr. changed his name, not the name, but the momentum of 'Xiansheng'. Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, our generation of journalists began to speak for the people, and at that time, the people's ignorance and national character had not yet been awakened, and they needed to raise their arms and be the ones who hit the alarm bell; If it is peaceful today, there are also things about people's livelihood that are entangled, and it is more necessary for news people to write reports and return facts to the audience. Moreover, today, as a foreign niche discipline, journalism has the greatest relationship with the national economy and people's livelihood, and from state institutions to all living beings, it is inseparable from the 'mouthpiece' of journalism."

Chunxin's speech was accompanied by a broad quotation, a broad understanding of the present, and even the news and theories of foreign developed countries were transferred to the classroom, one moment in Chinese and one time in English, and his demeanor and demeanor were the same for a while.

After the Chunxin, several journalism students of Fudan School of Journalism spoke, and their speeches were all reasonable, well-founded, erudite and generous, which shows the foundation of Fudan School of Journalism.

"It's really worthy of studying journalism, this is a battle of words, professional terms are like raindrops falling, I can hear it in the clouds" Shangguan Qinglin privately took Xia Wushuang's hand and threw a sweet expression of a fan girl at him. In her eyes, these academy elites are just talking on paper, Xia Wushuang is the real people's reporter, she has specially read Xia Wushuang's previous reports, in the needle and current affairs, every word is thorough, in the concern for the people's livelihood is sensible and touching, especially when exposing social diseases, bold and bold to speak out impartially, it is the existence of outstanding young journalists like him, constitutes the conscience of national media people.

"Well, what everyone said is good, and it is indeed the hope of the press in the future." The old gentleman smiled slightly, but said regretfully: "But I didn't hear what I wanted to hear most from your speech." ”

"I thought that most of what they said was extravagant and flattering."

As soon as these words came out, the entire lecture hall boiled!

This is blatant provocation and disregard, especially as this is the home of journalism majors. The people who came to audit from other departments were fine, but in the ears of journalism students, they were uneducated and unskilled villagers, ignorant, ignorant, arrogant and presumptuous! After a few days of learning calligraphy, I became a cultural person!

"Who is this who actually speaks wild words!"

Chunxin took the lead in responding to the provocation, and the journalism students were all displeased: "Who is this who got cheap to come to the audit, and actually said hurtful words." ”

A well-dressed young man stood up from the back row, he was dressed in a strong suit, his angular face was clean and resolute, his sharp way of appearing, coupled with the sentence just now, attracted the attention of the whole classroom.

"Isn't that the legendary 'Qinglin is difficult to go to the blue sky with a smile'?"

"That's it, how can Senior Sister be with that impolite person?"

The young man was Xia Wushuang, when he stood up from the back row, he was still holding the peerless beauty Shangguan Qinglin in his hand, Shangguan Qinglin was led by him, and the shyness and pride of a little woman appeared on his face.

The world is so unreasonable!

This thought was on everyone's mind.

"What do you think, this classmate?"

The old gentleman saw Xia Wushuang, just like his wild self when he was young, and said with a smile: "Take a seat in the front row, let me listen to your high opinions." ”

Professor Yao spoke, and everyone else fell silent.

In everyone's eyes, Xia Wushuang took Shangguan Qinglin by the hand and sat down in the front row.
