Chapter 415: A scholar who studies advanced knowledge
In the Tang and Song dynasties, China's academy culture was already very prosperous, and many academies began in the Song Dynasty and flourished for thousands of years.
It stands to reason that all dynasties and generations attached great importance to education, and many emperors also personally issued orders to persuade them to learn.
However, none of these academies have evolved into the products of modern universities, and even institutions such as Guozijian have finally been eliminated in history.
It is ridiculous to say that the academy has been teaching for thousands of years, and the academy culture has flourished for thousands of years, but modern science has never been born.
This question also became a question for Joseph Needham, who could not figure out why ancient China, which had made great contributions to the development of science and technology, did not give birth to modern science.
In fact, the reason may be very simple, that is, "learning and excelling", plus the limited content of the imperial examination.
Many people see the superiority of the imperial examination, but ignore that there are two sides to everything, and the disadvantages of the imperial examination are equally fatal.
When studying and being an official are equated, these students can only be endowed with youth, and they can only seek fame and fame all their lives.
So there was a small peak of science and technology in the Song Dynasty, and since then it has been all the way downhill.
However, Yan Zheng, who has mastered the advanced guiding ideology and roughly knows where the problem is, has only been operating in Eastern Qin for less than ten years, and has gradually built a system from scratch.
This system is not as modern as it was, and it is not even as good as the Western countries of the 19th century.
But in essence, the system is already modernized, even modernized.
For example, education, Yan Zheng is stepping on the shoulders of giants, as long as he follows the steps, he can copy an excellent system.
Then, through industrialization, the industrial system and the education system are connected together to achieve positive feedback between the two.
This kind of positive feedback will promote the development of the two systems with each other, even if it is very rough, but qualitatively, it is enough to make Dongqin proud of the world and become a veritable light of civilization.
All the detours that mankind has taken in the history of education do not exist in front of Yan Zheng, he only needs to advance step by step according to objective conditions.
β¦β¦
On October 1, the fifth year of Huaxia, on the playground of Huaxia University of Technology.
The first batch of college students in the history of the Chinese Kingdom were sitting under the rostrum according to the class and college series.
They wore uniform uniforms, all of which were off-white student uniforms with a white octagonal hat.
On the chest, there is a small piece of cloth, which reads: Huaxia University of Science and Technology.
It must be very stylish to wear out, which is much higher than the school uniform in middle school.
Wang Sen sat in the crowd, talking and laughing with three roommates who were already acquainted.
The Department of Physics has the largest number of students, with a total of 2,689 students in the first class of the university.
The physics department alone has more than 700 students, and the biology department, which has the smallest number of students, has only about 200 students.
Mainly in the Department of Biology, the research I am doing now is too strange, either cultivating molds, or studying the breeding and hybridization of animals and plants.
These two hundred people who are willing to go to the Department of Biology are all so-called "obedient to the adjustment", and many people have been transferred to the Department of Medicine.
Wang Sen and Yang Ziwen are both lucky, they were not caught by Yan Zheng when they drew lots, otherwise, those who did not have outstanding results in all subjects like them would most likely be caught in other faculties.
After waiting for half an hour, the monarch was late.
As soon as he took the stage, it aroused the exclamations of the students present.
I saw Yan Zheng combing his hair shiny, wearing a school uniform of Huaxia Institute of Technology, and waving his hand to the stage.
This surprised the students, and their eyes were full of brilliance.
What is the Son of Heaven? What is a protΓ©gΓ© of the monarch? That's it!
Yan Zheng greeted with a smile on his face, and his heart was already full of worship.
A seed is planted, a sprout is sprouted, and it will grow into a tree.
This is the process of his education, recalling the lessons he taught in person at the straw hut, and recalling writing pamphlets and teaching materials word by word.
Yan Zheng's mind was full of hardships along the way.
If it weren't for the government's financial abundance, we don't know how long this road would take.
"Ten years of trees, 100 years of people! Education is the future of a nation, and it is also a cause that a nation must persevere! β
He secretly sighed in his heart that as a high-ranking person, he finally understood why education has become the most concerned issue for the whole country.
"Long live you!"
"Long life without borders!"
The students below spontaneously began to shout, and many of them raised their arms excitedly and shouted.
Yan Zheng waved his hand in response, and couldn't help shouting: "Long live knowledge, long live truth!"
His voice was drowned out in the waves, but fortunately, there was a note-taker on the side, who was hurrying to write it down.
After the students quieted down, Yan Zhengcai tidied up his clothes, held an iron horn, and said loudly: "Students, Huaxia University of Science and Technology will be officially established from today!" You are the first batch of college students in the history of our Huaxia Kingdom! β
Some people may ask, what is a university, and is a college student like a Jinshi of the Ming Kingdom? Here, I want to tell you plainly that college students are not comparable to the group of Jinshi in the Ming Kingdom! Because a thousand Jinshi have mastered only the same Confucian theory. However, a thousand college students may have mastered a thousand self-recognized theories and a large amount of natural science knowledge. It can create far more than a thousand possibilities! β
"Your future is far brighter than that of a Jinshi, and your contribution is destined to be higher than that of a group of Jinshi! Because you represent the most progressive, civilized, and knowledgeable forerunners in human history, you have the conditions and the ability to create more miracles! β
"And the university is a place where you can have a platform to display your talents! Scholars of the University study advanced knowledge! If you have come to this day, you should understand that the truth is endless, the authority can be broken, and as long as you treat learning with sincerity, you will definitely be rewarded! β
"As your principal, I expect high and low expectations from you! Gao, because I hope that you can all become academics and become the pillars of the country! Low, because I hope that you can experience a different life in your college years and find a career that you can continue to love. No one has the right to demand your life, what you want to become, what you want to do, how you want to toss, do it to your heart's content!
Don't be timid, don't be twilight, I hope that your life can be as fearless and courageous as when you were young............"
The playground was too big, Yan Zheng's words could not be heard clearly when they reached the back, and the students in front did not applaud in order not to affect them.
In the playground of Nuoda, there was only Yan Zheng's strong and passionate voice, and the notekeeper on the side was writing frantically.
At this moment, Yan Zheng was also like a mustache, and the more he spoke, the more excited his voice became, and the more exaggerated his movements became.
It doesn't matter what you say about this opening ceremony, what is important is to make this day more important in the annals of history and declare that the university is the real institution of higher learning.
After Yan Zheng finished speaking, the audience stopped for a moment before bursting into warm applause.
Regardless of the hoarse voice, Yan Zheng took a sip of water and continued to preside over the next ceremony.
Several students took the stage with their scripts, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, a female student stepped onto the podium.
After shaking hands with Guojun cordially, she stood in front of the podium excitedly and said affectionately: "Hello students, my name is Su Xiu, and I graduated from Yangang Middle School!" Now I am a freshman in the Department of Geology, my ancestral home is Tingzhou, Fujian, and the process of coming to Dongqin is very tortuous! Eight years ago, my family was still in the mountainous area of Tingzhou, and it was first hit by drought for two years, and then by bandits. As a last resort, my parents had to take me, my younger brother and sister to escape the famine together.
During this period, my parents tried to sell me several times, but because I was ugly and had a bad mouth, I was fortunately not bought. But at that time, my thoughts were deeply lost and sad, because I heard that after being sold, I would be able to eat enough and wear new clothes. I don't understand what it means to be a slave or a slave. Oh, yes! In the era of famine, being able to eat a full bite of food is the pursuit of everyone. β
Thinking of this, Su Xiu couldn't help laughing, and the classmates in the first few rows below were also full of smiles, and being able to talk about suffering easily showed that they had completely defeated the suffering in their hearts.
Su Xiu continued: "Fortunately, we met the opportunity to come to Dongqin, and our family of five, except for my sister, who unfortunately died in Zhangzhou, all came to Dongqin. From scratch, acres and acres of land were reclaimed out of the homeland, household registration was obtained, land deeds were obtained, and my younger brother and I were able to go to school. My father was hired as a worker in the shipyard four years ago, and since then, my family's conditions have been greatly improved, and it is in the shipyard that my father has learned the importance of learning and technology.
He supported me to go to university, believing that in Huaxia, knowledge can change fate! He often told me that in the shipyard he could only handle one type of plank. All kinds of tools, all kinds of machinery, and even every size, there is a set of principles to be said. If he is uneducated, he can only deal with the same kind of plank every day, and if he gives him another plank, he will be blind, and he will have to learn for a few more months before he can do it well.
So since I was in junior high school, I have been studying hard, sparing no effort to study, just hoping to change my destiny as a woman through knowledge......"
Yan Zheng listened silently, this freshman's speech, in addition to telling the past, also showed a change in thinking.
The root cause behind this is that there is a worker in her family! A worker working in a factory under a new production relationship.
So in just a few years, the family got rid of the original stereotype and even began to support the women's education.
This is the indirect impact of the increase in the productive forces and the change in the relations of production on the concept of consciousness?
