Chapter 174 The Tragic Death of an Innocent Female Educated Youth (25)

Hearing what Ding Shui said, the educated youth around him had complicated feelings. They really wanted to believe that what Ding Shui said was right, but they were afraid that they would be disappointed and give themselves confidence in vain, which would only result in false joy.

"Did Zhu Yuanzhang ever suspend the imperial examinations?"

"But isn't there a recommendation for college now?"

"Yeah, if you can get recommended to go to university, why would you need to take a special exam? Xiao Zhao, aren't you being too optimistic?"

Facing everyone's concerns and doubts, Ding Shui continued:

"When Zhu Yuanzhang suspended the imperial examinations, he also used the recommendation system, asking officials and even some nobles to recommend candidates. But in the end, he had to abandon the recommendation system and resumed the imperial examinations after some twists and turns.

I think the current situation is similar.

In five or six years at the shortest, seven or eight years at the longest, and no more than ten years at the most, the college entrance examination must be restored."

"Ah! What takes so long?"

Someone was suddenly surprised.

But someone immediately rolled their eyes:

"Do you really believe it? How could she possibly guess the policy plans from above? Does she have that ability?"

"I believe it, but why is it taking so long?"

I have been in the countryside for two or three years and there is no hope of going back for the time being, so I am willing to give myself some hope.

And he felt that what Ding Shui said made sense.

Naturally, I'd like to listen more.

"You should all be aware that the university admission recommendation process is quite strict in some areas, but quite relaxed in others, especially when it comes to academic qualifications and knowledge. Regardless of whether you've graduated from high school, middle school, or elementary school, or even if you don't have a diploma or have never attended school, as long as you meet certain requirements, such as political literacy, you can still go to university!"

Ding Shui has just started.

The educated youth nearby interrupted in surprise.

"Wait, we don't understand. Can you please tell me more about the situation of being recommended for college? I always thought only high school graduates were eligible!"

"Yeah, I always thought..."

"Is it okay even if you haven't been to school?"

Ding Shui only realized at this moment that no one knew about this matter, and he immediately said without hesitation:
"Then be quiet and listen to me.

As far as I know, this is the case, because some time ago a newspaper specifically mentioned that although someone had never been to school, he was named a model worker and was recommended to go to university.

Therefore, the key to recommending students to go to university is recommendation.”

After hearing this, some people have noticed that there is a problem:

"This...this is too unfair!"

"I understand. No wonder you said the college entrance exam would have to be reinstated sooner or later, just seven or eight years from now, or even a dozen years from now. How many of those recommended for university admission would actually have real talent? Even if there might be a few geniuses among them, the majority would be mediocre, or at least not particularly relevant to science and technology. Can we really expect them to build the country and advance technology after graduation?"

Li Guozhu also suddenly understood. "That's right. Under such circumstances, how much can we expect those so-called college students who are recommended to go to college and graduate to achieve after entering the workforce, and how much can we expect them to contribute to the country's scientific and technological development?
Those who majored in liberal arts might be able to get by.

But you can’t fool people in science and chemical engineering!
In six years at most, many relevant departments should realize how low-quality the batch of university students recommended for admission is. Ten years from now, to be frank, there may even be a certain degree of talent gap.

Although Ding Shui's inference was based on known reality, which is equivalent to confusing cause and effect, there is actually nothing wrong with what she said, as it is a real thing.

Because of this ten-year delay, it took nearly another ten years to recover and reconnect with talent.

And began to flourish.

"So if you still want to go to university, you can actually stay put for now, work hard to improve your foundation, and wait for the future. If you don't have enough foundation, you won't be able to pass the college entrance examination even if it is reinstated."

Ding Shui continued to encourage.

By the time they were talking about this, everyone had already walked to the burned-down Youth League Home. Looking at the ruins, everyone's hearts were suddenly filled with excitement and hope.

Because they felt that what Ding Shui said made sense.

It has both historical and current basis.

As for whether to wait six years or ten years, as long as there is hope, they feel they can wait.

"If we have to wait six or ten years before the college entrance examination is resumed, I think it will be an opportunity for us. Many of us have only graduated from junior high school. Not only have we not learned high school knowledge, but even the junior high school knowledge we learned may not be very solid. For those who graduated from high school, the learning atmosphere in school is not very good in the few years before graduation.

I guess everyone is not very good at learning.

In addition, we have to work in the fields now, and the time we can squeeze out for study is limited. We can't compare the study time with when we were in school, and there are no teachers to teach us. We can only learn by ourselves. Who can be sure of it in a few years?
Who dares to compete with recent high school graduates?"

Li Guozhu encouraged everyone at the right time, and also hoped that the educated youth present would not be discouraged because they might have to wait for six or even ten years.

With their level of knowledge, without a few years of review and consolidation through self-study, how can they hope to compete with others?
At this time, someone nearby also echoed.

"Yes, even if the college entrance examination is restored, we must be able to take it and pass it. Otherwise, what difference does it make to us whether it is restored or not?"

"But...what if I can't recover?"

"Knowledge once learned is yours. Even if we can't recover it, we have learned it in the end."

"No, it will definitely recover."

"We need to be prepared..."

Although there were still a few people who thought this was a bit wishful thinking, most of the educated youth were indeed encouraged.

They soon started discussing that they still had textbooks at home and should not have sold them, so they could ask their family members to send them over. Some people also suggested that they could go to the bookstore when they had time to see if there were any corresponding textbooks for sale.

If you don’t understand something, you can communicate with each other. If you really don’t understand something, write it down first and try to find someone to ask when you have the chance.

Ding Shui himself was also pleased with this atmosphere. After all, discussing academic matters together was always better than engaging in intrigue. As for the university recommendation quota, no one mentioned it. Firstly, Wang Weihong had just committed so many crimes related to it, making the matter inherently sensitive. The next team leader and branch secretary, Zhu Hong, would undoubtedly be extremely cautious, and might even exclude these educated youth from the list to prevent further incidents.

Secondly, since there is no restriction on academic qualifications, the Fuyang Brigade will of course favor their own people.

How could the benefits be given to outsiders first?

There is no hope for normal competition, and if you want to use tricks, Wang Weihong is a lesson for you, so naturally no one mentions this matter again.
