Wang Yi continued at this time: "But what I want to say is that although efforts may not necessarily be rewarded and efforts may not be results, we must still make unswerving efforts for our ideals and persevere for what we love.
Even if you work hard, you should still try your best to be a good person."
"Although the result may not necessarily be good, the process of pursuing your dream will definitely make you have endless aftertaste."
"When you are old and look back on the past, you will feel that at least I have worked hard and struggled."
"Good people may not necessarily be rewarded with good things, but we should try to be good people. At least this way our own conscience will be at ease and we can live with peace of mind."
At this point, the more than 5,000 Tsinghua students were thinking deeply.
Even the instructors present were thinking secretly in their hearts.
In the past, people always advised young people that hard work will be rewarded by God, and good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds.
But Wang Yi should instill a brand new concept into them today.
We may not succeed if we work hard, but we still have to work hard.
However, the smile on Wang Yi's face disappeared on the podium.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After the final sound of the video fell, Wang Yi looked at these young people.
"To make money! Brother Yi, you can't say I'm shallow, because with money I can do many things. With money I can buy a house, a car, a wife and children, I can build a road in our village, I can give our dilapidated primary school
Repair it. I can also sponsor a few more college students. While making myself comfortable, I can also do something for others."
"Why has our school received so much criticism in the past two years? Why do most of our talents never come back after studying abroad?"
They all take the results too seriously, but often ignore the process of pursuing results, and many times this process is the most unforgettable and evocative.
I saw that each of them seemed to be deep in thought.
"As for reading for the rise of China, it has even become a joke after I said it. Well, I admit that such an idea does seem to have become a joke among ordinary people, but you shouldn't."
One student said: "In order for my next generation to not have to work so hard from the countryside to come here like me, but to start here."
"It is because of his and our ancestors' spirit and spirit of studying for the rise of China that I can stand here today and brag to you. Only then can you sit here and listen to my bragging."
The scene suddenly burst into laughter.
Having said this, Wang Yi inserted the USB flash drive into the computer on the podium in front of him and played a video.
After the students below noticed that Wang Yi's expression had become serious, everyone's laughter gradually became thinner, and eventually everyone stopped laughing.
"You are the most elite group among the 1.4 billion people in the country. Your parents, your teachers, and the country have spent much more energy and resources on cultivating you than ordinary people. And if you also treat yourself as one of the greatest heroes of China,
If we treat it as a joke while rising up, then the future of this country will be really hopeless."
One student said: "In order to live a good life, so that my parents can live a good life."
Even one instructor couldn't help but smile.
Some students simply stood up and said:
Then he looked at the students and said: "The second point of my speech is about the purpose of reading. Why do you study?"
"With great power comes great responsibility. Ordinary people can regard reading for the rise of China as a joke, but you are not ordinary people. Of course you can use reading to arm yourself and make your life better, but in living a more difficult life
At the same time, if you can make some contribution to the country, even a little bit, I, Wang Yi, will be grateful to you."
When Wang Yi said these last few sentences, his voice raised an octave and his expression became more serious.
At the end, Wang Yi paused longer, this time for a full minute.
When everyone was completely quiet, Wang Yi looked at them seriously and said:
"More than 100 years ago, a 14-year-old boy said these words and studied for the rise of China. And he did practice these words throughout his life."
In this process, you will learn a lot.
"If Mr. Qian and his group of outstanding scientists did not return to China, it would have become a fact that their own man-made missiles would hit their own heads. Mr. Qian allowed China to rise in the East and compete with other countries for so long. If his descendants had
They made the completely opposite choice and let our own man-made missiles hit our own heads. That is a shame for scholars!"
The video was played three times.
After I finished speaking, I paused for half a minute to let the students digest it.
"The country and the people have trained us, but we turn around and work for those foreigners. If things continue like this, one day, the missiles built by our foreign students will hit our own heads. This is not alarmist!"
"I think in addition to the more generous conditions offered by foreigners, it is more because we lack the belief in studying for the rise of China."
Wang Yi finally concluded:
"Life is like a journey, you don't have to care about the destination. What you care about is the scenery along the way and the mood of seeing the scenery."
"Isn't this enough for you to enjoy a life far beyond that of ordinary people?"
On the big screen, Kobe in a suit and leather shoes was giving a speech:
"Those times when you get up early and work hard; those times when you stay up late and work hard; those times when you are tired and don't want to persist anymore, but still grit your teeth and persist, that is the value of dreams."
At this time, a classmate shouted:
"Read for the rise of China!"
"It is true that in today's society, life is under great pressure. There are seniors and juniors, and they have to pay off their mortgages and car loans. What more than 99.9% of people think about is how to live a better life and how to pay what they owe.
The debt is paid off.”
The students talked about their respective purposes for studying, some sincerely, some jokingly.
We have worked hard and we have no regrets.
"To be honest, although the conditions provided by the country are not as generous as those for foreigners, how do they compare with those ordinary people? I think it may be 10 times or even a hundred times."
His eyes became serious, staring at everyone below, and his expression gradually became serious.
We will enjoy the process of hard work.
During this minute, the entire venue was silent.
Finally, Wang Yi straightened his chest and glanced at every student.
He said solemnly: "Then please tell me now, why should you study?"
There was silence for a moment, and finally a few students said:
"Reading for the rise of China."
Chapter completed!
