Obviously, when telling his past experience, Cao Zhiqiang couldn't help but be a little possessed by the drama spirit, and began to say something mysterious.

It's a pity that this set of rhetoric may be quite good in the eyes of others, such as Xu Jingli, who heard it for the first time, she was very moved and touched a lot when she heard it.

But in the eyes of others, especially Cai Ling, it really has no effect.

Because this is not the first time she has heard this set of rhetoric, it is difficult to be touched.

But the most important thing is that the topic of Cai Ling's interview this time is not to sensationalize the past, but to ask why Cao Zhiqiang is so awesome, and why he is so awesome in his exams, why he didn't go to college.

In other words, Cao Zhiqiang, as a top student in the college entrance examination, did not fill in the college application, what is the real reason, this is the subject of this interview.

Secondly, I want to ask Cao Zhiqiang what special learning methods he has.

As for his past experience, it is actually the least important.

Well, it's not that Cao Zhiqiang's past experience isn't important.

In Cai Ling's original interview plan, in this interview, Cao Zhiqiang's past experience is indeed a very important link and a key point, after all, Cao Zhiqiang's experience is really legendary and impressive.

Not all high school dropouts can become famous poets, best-selling authors, famous singers, and the president of a state-owned publishing house in just half a year.

If all these legendary experiences are told, it will definitely cause a sensation.

Perhaps, she can use this detailed interview to make one of the top ten news of the year, and then she will send it.

However, when Cai Ling and Cao Zhiqiang had a private call and revealed the details of the interview in advance, it was Cao Zhiqiang who took the initiative to mention or exaggerate his past, and not to publicize his current identity too much, just say that he is an ordinary employee of a state-owned enterprise.

Although this is inconsistent with Cai Ling's original intention, because Cao Zhiqiang's status is different now, Cai Ling also agreed.

It's good now, Cai Ling didn't ask in detail, but you yourself said it in a loud voice, you can't blame her.

Although there was a moment, Cai Ling wanted to take advantage of the trend and dig directly into Cao Zhiqi's past experience.

However, thinking about Cao Zhiqiang's current status and the special instructions of the leader before coming to the interview, Cai Ling decided not to continue.

Indeed, if we continue to dig deeper, we may involve some more complex issues.

For example, why is he young enough to become the president of a publishing house in less than half a year after he joined the work, whether this complies with relevant regulations, whether there are human factors, and so on.

Thinking of this, seeing that Cao Zhiqiang had entered the play deeply, and even tears came out, reporter Cai Ling couldn't help but say: "This, President Cao, I also feel very sad about your past, especially the death of your mother, but the deceased is gone, you still have to look forward, don't you say?" ”

"Yes, that's right." Cao Zhiqiang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and finally came back to his senses, knowing that he had just said too much.

"The dead are gone, and as the living, we really have to look forward, it's me who is in sight."

Seeing that Cao Zhiqiang had returned to normal, Cai Ling blinked and hurriedly moved on to the next question:

"By the way, speaking of which, according to the information, you dropped out of school in the first half of your first year of high school, and then worked at home for a few years, and after your mother died, you took her shift and went directly to work in your mother's factory, right?"

"Yes, that's right." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

Cai Ling nodded: "In other words, during this period, you didn't go to school again, you were all self-taught at home, and you were working and studying, right?" ”

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang continued to nod.

Cai Ling smiled: "Self-study at home, and it is a part-time job and study, under such difficult conditions, you can achieve such excellent results, and you won the twenty-sixth place in the city's liberal arts in the preliminary examination, and won the top prize in liberal arts in one fell swoop in the college entrance examination, which is really surprising."

So my question is, do you have any tips for learning?

How did you achieve such good results by self-study without the company of teachers and classmates? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "I don't know if you have heard a story about the great scientist Albert Einstein, who only scored one point in the primary school mathematics exam, but finally became a great scientist through his own efforts?" ”

"Of course I did." Cai Ling smiled, "This is a story in a primary school textbook.

I still remember that the textbook said that Einstein was stupid in elementary school, he didn't like to talk, he was silent, he didn't study well, and he only scored one point in mathematics, but he persevered, never gave up, and eventually became a great scientist.

So, do you want to say that the reason why you can become the top student in the college entrance examination is because of perseverance and never give up? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "No, it's not." ”

Cai Ling was stunned: "Then what do you mean?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Actually, the story of Einstein's score is indeed there, but it is not the truth."

When I was a child, when I saw this story, I thought that Einstein was stupid when he was a child, and that it was his unremitting efforts that finally made him successful.

But then I grew up, read more books, and knew the truth of the matter, and then I realized that the so-called poor math grades of Einstein in elementary school was nonsense. ”

"Oh?" Cai Ling asked, "Then what is your so-called truth?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang said: "The truth is that when Einstein was in elementary school, he did get a score in mathematics, but it was not his bad grades, on the contrary, it was proof of his good grades."

Because in Germany at that time, the test score was on a six-point scale, where one score was excellent, two points were good, three points were average, four points were pass, five points were fail, and six points were the worst.

Einstein's score in elementary school was the highest score. ”

"Really?" Cai Ling said in surprise.

"Of course it's true." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "If you don't believe it, you can go and check with the people at the West German Embassy in China, they should know this, after all, this was well documented at the time."

Of course, the reason why everyone thinks that one point is the worst may be related to Einstein's later experience, or rather, it is a misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding, what misunderstanding?" Cai Ling asked.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "That's right, when Einstein was in high school, he went to high school in Aarau, Switzerland.

At that time, the Swiss test score system was the opposite of the German system, although it was a six-point system, six points were the best, and one point was the worst.

So when Einstein was in high school, he was very good in all his subjects, algebra and geometry were all the highest scores of six, and only French was the worst, which was a three-point middle level.

Also, Einstein taught himself Euclidean geometry at the age of 12 and calculus at the age of 16, which is something that ordinary people can do?

In other words, Einstein was not unintelligent when he was a child, he was a prodigy in the teacher's mouth since he was a child, and then he grew up.

In addition, none of the famous scientists like Planck, including Qian Xuesen in my country, were stupid when they were children, and all of them started as prodigies.

To be more precise, hard work is indeed useful, but it can only make you a little better than the average person.

But if you want to reach a height that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, such as easily getting a top student in the college entrance examination, this really depends on talent. ”

Cai Ling blinked: "So, do you mean that the reason why you can win the city's top liberal arts title is actually because you are talented?" ”

"Apparently yes!" Cao Zhiqiang spread his hands.

"Otherwise, as you said, I dropped out of high school in my first year, and then I had to go to work during the period, support my family, and write to earn manuscript fees, and the time for self-study was just a little bit every day, and I didn't have a teacher to teach and classmates to accompany me.

Under such unfavorable conditions, how can I get a good score in the test?

In addition to my good talent and good brain, is there any other explanation? ”

Cai Ling was stunned: "According to our information, your previous academic performance was not good, since elementary school, you have been crane tail, you worked hard for a while during junior high school, and you were barely admitted to high school, how can you explain this?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "It's very simple, it's too late."

For example, during elementary school, girls generally have good academic performance, boys have poor academic performance, and in junior high school, it is the same for men and women, and once in high school, if it is science, it is often male students whose grades suddenly come up, crushing girls on a large scale, and only in liberal arts are still similar to girls.

The reason for this is complex, and in simple terms, it is that boys generally open their minds later than girls.

Of course, this is a wide range of cases, and there are differences between individuals.

Some people are enlightened at a very young age, so they are called prodigies, and if this prodigy can't go further, can't maintain a first-mover advantage, and is caught up, it will hurt Zhongyong.

Some people open their minds late, and they may not open until they are in high school or even their twenties, which is equivalent to suddenly exerting their strength when they grow up.

I'm a late opener. ”

Cai Ling raised her eyebrows: "So, you think it's because you have opened your mind that your academic performance has improved by leaps and bounds?" ”

"That's right." Cao Zhiqi nodded, "When I was in school before, the learning conditions were very good, but I couldn't learn anything, and I couldn't see it, so I was forced to learn, and it didn't have any effect."

But when my mother died, it may have been in extreme pain, or after a great fear of dying, that I suddenly became enlightened.

Since then, I've learned everything so fast, and what I didn't know before, I can see it at a glance, and what I didn't understand before, I understand it with a little thought.

In addition, I am also inspired at every turn, whether it is writing poetry or songs, all of them are like a god.

Not only that, but I also taught myself harmonica, accordion, guitar, drawing, Japanese and English.

Although I was self-taught, I was able to learn each subject quickly and deeply.

For example, it may take four or five years for others to get a first glimpse of English, but it only takes me half a year to learn English as my mother tongue.

It's the same with Japanese, and now I communicate with Japanese people in Japanese, which is exactly like communicating in my native language. ”

"Really?" Cai Ling was dumbfounded.

Well, this time she was really dumbfounded, after all, it was the first time she heard Cao Zhiqiang say this.

"Of course it's true." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "If you don't believe me, you can always find an English-speaking English-speaking English-American to come over, and I can talk to him directly."

It's the same with Japanese, you can always find a Japanese person to come over, and I can answer them fluently.

By the way, I also have a Japanese friend named Masashi Sada, I don't know if you know? ”

"Masashi Sada?" Cai Ling blinked, "You mean, the Oriental singer who once held a concert in the exhibition hall?" ”

"That's right, it's him." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "We have become good friends, and he officially invited me to Japan to participate in a musical exchange and cooperation with him, and I will leave next month." ”

"Wow, that's amazing!" Cai Ling shook her head, "Sure enough, the capable can do anything." ”

After a slight pause, Cai Ling said: "In other words, the reason why you can achieve such a good score in the college entrance examination and become the top student in the college entrance examination is purely because you are talented and enlightened, not because of hard work, or any special study secrets?" ”

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Work hard, of course I have worked hard, if I don't work hard, I will definitely not succeed, but in terms of study, there must be more people who work harder than me."

As for the study secret, there is actually no secret, it is nothing more than reading more textbooks and brushing up on questions.

For those like me who have an open brain, the effect may be significant if they brush the questions two or three times, while those who have not opened their minds may need to brush the questions more than a dozen times, or even dozens of times.

To put it bluntly, diligence can definitely make up for clumsiness, but if you are extremely talented and a so-called learning genius, then you naturally don't need to be particularly diligent.

Of course, I'm not saying that diligence is bad, but for me, for a difficulty like the college entrance examination, there is not much difference between me doing more questions and doing less questions.

So, with the extra time, I will do more and learn more useful knowledge, isn't he fragrant? ”

Cai Ling took a deep breath: "I understand, that is to say, you are a genius yourself, so you easily got the top prize in liberal arts, right?" ”

"Yes, that's right." Cao Zhiqiang shrugged, "Of course I can say against my will that I have achieved results through hard work, but it's really unnecessary, after all, it really can't be fake." ”

Cai Ling nodded: "So, since you are so talented, so talented, and so confident, then in fact, before the official college entrance examination, you already knew that your grades would not be bad, right?" ”

"Yes!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

Cai Ling asked: "In that case, why don't you write the name of any university when you fill in the application?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "It's very simple, because it's not necessary." ”

"Not necessary?" Cai Ling asked, "Do you think it's unnecessary to go to college?" ”

"That's right." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Let me ask you, why did we work so hard to get into the university?" ”

"Why?" Cai Ling was stunned, "Of course, I want to continue my studies and serve the motherland." ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Do you believe what you said?" ”

Cai Ling rolled her eyes, and then smiled: "Okay, going to college, of course, I want to be able to have a good background, and then have a good job, and have a good future in the future." ”

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "That's right, for most of us, going to college is actually to change our fate, want a good job, and have a good future."

But I already have these things.

You see, I am now a 22-level cadre of a state-owned enterprise, which is the same level as a fresh graduate of a university who has just joined a state-owned enterprise.

The manuscript fee I earned for writing books has already exceeded one million, and many college students can't earn it for most of their lives.

I am also a leader in the unit, and the future is promising.

I already have the money, the power and the rank, and the future is brighter than most college graduates, so why should I waste at least four years going to college? ”

"However, you can learn a lot of knowledge in college that you can't learn outside." Cai Ling said, "Sometimes, you can't just rely on those flashy things, right?

And you also said that you are a learning genius, since you have such a good talent, why not continue your studies and learn more advanced knowledge in college, so that you can go further and better serve the motherland and give back to the society?

Are you wasting your talent if you're not grateful? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Who said that if you have a good talent and are a genius, you must go to university for further study?" Who said that if you are a learning genius, you can't be vulgar?

I have a strong ability to learn, do I have to be a scientist and a mathematician?

Can't I be a poet, a singer, or an entrepreneur?

Besides, even if I don't go to university, it doesn't mean that I won't study.

As the saying goes, I live to learn, and I'm like this now, I can learn whatever I want, and I learn it just for the sake of interest, and it's also very good.

Besides, I don't go to college, but I can actually give back to society better.

For example, I can write more articles that people like to hear, or write more songs that people like to listen to.

Or, if I'm interested in it another day, maybe I can help with R&D, such as designing a costume or something.

As the saying goes, everyone has their own aspirations, and going to college is not the only way out.

If you don't go to college, it won't affect me to continue my studies, it won't affect my brilliance, right? ”

Cai Ling nodded: "In that case, then why do you still want to take the college entrance examination?" ”

"To prove myself, of course." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "I just want to prove that I am not worse than others, lest someone always say that I am not even a college student, but I can get such a high position and be given the title of twenty-second cadre."

I want everyone to understand that it's not that I can't get into college, it's that I don't want to go to college.

And even if I didn't go to college, I was better than most college students. ”

Cai Ling said: "So, do you think it doesn't matter if you go to college, it's not necessary?" ”

"Of course not." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "It's just that for me personally, it doesn't have much effect, but if others also learn from me, it would be a big mistake."

If you want to learn from me, then do what I've done so far.

For example, you can set a small goal and earn him a million first.

If you can earn a million at my age, without stealing, robbing, or abducting, and making a million in accordance with the rules and responsibilities, you can not go to college. ”

"A million?" Cai Ling exclaimed, "You've already earned a million?" ”

"yes." Cao Zhiqiang shrugged his shoulders, "Before I took the college entrance examination, I had already reached the small goal of earning one million, and I am currently moving towards the goal of 10 million, and it won't be long before the end of this year, I should be able to reach the goal." ”

Cai Ling smiled bitterly: "This, this is indeed not something that ordinary people can do, if you want to say so, it is understandable not to go to college, just to make money and not go to college, this reason is not very good." ”

"What's so bad?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Make money, don't stumble, what's so embarrassing about giving up going to college in order to make money?"

Going to college is for a better life, and if I don't go to college, I can have a better life, so why should I go to college?

Now that it is a market economy, everything must be centered on economic construction.

I work hard to make money and pay taxes well, which in itself is giving back to society.

Not to mention, after I make money, I still have to spend and invest, which is actually giving back to the society, right? ”

"Understood." Cai Ling said, "So, you are a realist genius, you take the college entrance examination just to prove yourself, and you don't have to go to college."

And the reason why you chose to give up going to college is only because you feel that it is better for you not to go to college, am I right? ”

"That's right!" Cao Zhiqiang said.

"But don't you really regret it?" Cai Ling asked.

"No regrets." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Whether or not to go to college is just a free choice, not an inevitable choice."

Maybe after I go to college, I will add more good-looking resumes and have the status of a college student, but if the price is to miss more opportunities and waste more time, then it is better not to.

At this time, it is a period of change, there are opportunities to make a fortune everywhere, and there is innovation and change everywhere.

The more this time, the more I can't escape into the ivory tower, but take the initiative to embrace the times and be a trendsetter of the times.

Perhaps, when the waves fall and the dust settles, I can take the college entrance examination again, or simply go to university for self-study.

But at least for now, I don't have time to waste, and I can't go to university to further my education.

Time is money, time is opportunity.

I want to seize every minute and every second of the present, take advantage of the spring breeze of reform, take advantage of the momentum, and soar forward, so that we can live up to our ambition and the tasks entrusted to us by the times.

So, I don't go to college, both for myself and for everyone.

I am no longer alone, I am the leader of a state-owned enterprise, and I am the leader of many people.

I want to lead everyone to success and glory, instead of diving into the ivory tower to study something. ”

"Understood, thoroughly understood." Cai Ling sighed, "It seems that you are indeed a different person. ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Only by being different can you be outstanding." ”

Cai Ling smiled and nodded: "Indeed, what you just said, if someone else said it, I might think that the other party is more arrogant, but if it was you, I think it was a sincere heart, at least, you didn't say those false words." ”

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "So, seeking truth from facts is true, and being down-to-earth is real." As for the fake big empty, there are enough of them, everyone is tired of hearing them, so there is no need to say more. ”

"Good." Cai Ling smiled slightly, "I already know your original intention, that's all for today's interview, I'm glad you can accept our interview." ”

"I'm also very happy to be interviewed." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "After all, to be honest, you are making a name for me, hahahaha." ”
