Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 2047 Centennial Famous School
For a long time, in terms of academic research, Peking University and Tsinghua University have their own emphases and advantages.

In the traditional concept, many people always think that Peking University is good for liberal arts, and Tsinghua University is good for science and engineering.In fact, this understanding is not comprehensive.Peking University is not only good in liberal arts, but also in science. In 1952, the national adjustment of colleges and departments, Tsinghua University’s science department was fully merged into Peking University, which led to Peking University’s science department leading other universities in the country for a long time.Tsinghua is mainly good at engineering and sports. Of course, in the past two years, Tsinghua's science has gradually caught up.

Moreover, whether it is Tsinghua University or Peking University, the interior of the campus is very beautiful. When you are in it, you can feel a very strong historical heritage.

Under the leadership of the principal Wu Shuqing, Duan Yun visited the Peking University campus, and the scenery here made Duan Yun very surprised.

Among them, the most memorable one is the "One Pagoda Lake Picture" of BJ University. It is the towering Boya Pagoda, the lake is the clear Moming Lake, and the picture is the BJ University Library with a sense of age. It is very rich, known as the first in China and the third in Asia. These books are also the essence of Chinese culture and can be called national treasures.

At this time, in the library of Peking University, a group of students are quietly reading and checking information in the open area. From their expressions, it can be seen that they are very focused. It seems that everyone has a hunger for knowledge. The learning atmosphere is rare in other universities in China.

In fact, students who are able to study in Tsinghua University and Peking University are under great pressure. Unlike other universities that strictly prohibit lenient scholarships, Tsinghua University and Peking University strictly forbid graduation. If you want to graduate from these two schools, you have to pay more than other universities. It takes several times the efforts of domestic universities.

Moreover, because the students of these two schools are the best seedlings in China, they are the top among the top schools in various provinces and cities. If the academic performance is above or in the middle, they must study day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep. Otherwise, it will be difficult to maintain their self-esteem and sense of superiority, so the environment has a great impact on students.

When leading Duan Yun to visit the school, Wu Shuqing was also proud. For him, being the principal of such a century-old school is already the highest honor in his life. This is indeed the case. None of the principals here are ordinary people, most of them have left their names in history, and they are the existences that all educators in China look up to.

However, in front of Duan Yun, Wu Shuqing was more modest and easy-going, which also made Duan Yun feel good about him.

In fact, these top scholars in China are generally relatively modest. On the contrary, some guys who are full of dissatisfaction with half of the bottle like to boast, pretentious, and always show that they have different views and the ability to think independently , in fact, apart from their profession, there is nothing worthy of praise in other aspects.

At noon, Wu Shuqing invited Duan Yun to have lunch in the cafeteria of Peking University, accompanied by other leaders of the school.

It can be said that for Duan Yun's arrival this time, Wu Shuqing definitely gave enough face. Even the school leaders who accompanied him were all well-known figures in the domestic education circle. A principal of a top domestic university accompanied a private Entrepreneurs having dinner together was something that was unimaginable in the past.

To put it bluntly, today's scene is possible, on the one hand, because of the change of national policy, and on the other hand, Wu Shuqing is indeed an educator with an open spirit. During the conversation between the two, Duan Yun felt that Wu Shuqing was definitely not that kind. A traditional scholar who can only read dead books, he has been paying close attention to the development situation at home and abroad, and has his own very clear opinions on some major issues.

Eating lunch in the cafeteria of Peking University this time can be regarded as an eye-opener for Duan Yun. In the past, he had been to many colleges and universities to eat with school leaders, but most of them were in private rooms. But this time, Wu Shuqing and Duan Yun In the cafeteria where ordinary students and faculty members eat, there are some teachers and students coming and going around, and there are no additional private rooms.

This made Duan Yun feel a little unbelievable. You must know that Wu Shuqing is a deputy ministerial leader, and he is a top existence in the education field. It is very rare to be able to do this under the current situation where the official position is prevalent in China.

In the cafeteria, the teachers and students didn't show too much surprise when they saw Wu Shuqing and others, but occasionally greeted them politely, indicating that Wu Shuqing himself should often dine in this restaurant, but Duan Yun's appearance aroused many people Surprised and curious, some teachers and students even went up to ask for their names, and some ran back to the dormitory, took out their cameras, and wanted to take a photo with Duan Yun.

For a while, the entire cafeteria was almost packed, and people's focus was mainly on Duan Yun. You must know that Duan Yun was a very legendary private entrepreneur in China very early on. In addition, he was only in his early 30s, young and mature. , the clothes are also very handsome, so it is a matter of course that he is welcomed by the teachers and students of the school.

"It seems that the students in our school like you very much." After finally dealing with the teachers and students who came to ask for their autographs and group photos, Wu Shuqing glanced at Duan Yun with a smile, and then said: "I didn't expect to find such a gift for you after a meal." I'm really sorry for the trouble."

"Principal Wu, there is no need for you to apologize to me." Duan Yun smiled and continued, "To be honest, I am really happy to be able to visit Peking University today and interact with so many teachers and students. When I was young, I also dreamed of coming to your school, but unfortunately I was a scumbag at that time, and I probably couldn't touch the threshold of your school..."

"Hahaha!" As soon as Duan Yun finished speaking, several people present laughed.

"Although you have not been admitted to our school, the knowledge and experience you have acquired is no worse than those of the teachers and students in our school. What we can learn is only the knowledge in textbooks, but the most important thing is social practice. In other words In other words, this is like going to war on the battlefield, we can only teach them how to use guns, but you are a hero who has experienced countless actual battles and has achieved brilliant results." Wu Shuqing smiled slightly at this time, and continued: "Even the few of us, I should also learn from you..."

"This is a serious word. My career can develop so big. On the one hand, the country's policies are good, and on the other hand, I am lucky." Seeing that Comrade Wu Shuqing gave him such a high evaluation, he said quickly: "Principal Wu You are a top economic expert in China, when I read your works before, it really benefited me a lot, and I hope to learn more from you in the future."
