Chapter five hundred and ninety-third speech that shocked the world
Chapter 593 Speech that Shocks the World
The next evening.
Jinjiang College, Southwest University, Rongcheng.
The newly built sports center is full of tens of thousands of seats.
Yesterday, CCTV Finance and Sichuan Provincial TV reported on the news that Jobs came to Chengdu.
In the TV screen, the modern Qingfeng Group and its affiliated enterprises of Rongcheng Jinjiang Science and Technology Park are displayed to people one by one.
Let the ancient city of Rongcheng be rejuvenated with technology.
The Chengdu city government strikes while the iron is hot.
We strive to take advantage of the opportunity of Jobs attending the Southwest University celebration.
Recommend this largest city in southwest China to the world.
Relevant leaders, media from the government and the public, as well as elites in the technology industry gathered together.
Spend the school anniversary with students from Southwest University.
Luo Ningyuan, Liu Junshan, Su Xiaolin, Xi Chaoyang and others were waiting for the opening of the school anniversary party in the VIP lounge.
"Principal Su, have the matters to receive Mr. Jobs be arranged?" Luo Ningyuan asked.
"The arrangement was made, and Comrade Liu Xiyu, an excellent lecturer from our school, was accompanied throughout the whole process. However, Mr. Jobs said that chatting with us was too boring. He liked to chat with the students on campus." Su Xiaolin said.
"Oh, this is caused by cultural differences, but is there any problem with their communication?"
"Liu Xiyu is our excellent lecturer and has a good English level. Even students in our school have many good English levels."
"Oh, then I'll feel relieved. I heard that Ye Feng will be here tonight. Have you arranged a program for him?"
"I have this intention, but the boy refused. He said he could not steal the limelight from other people's customers."
"This limelight must be snatched. You can arrange it first. I will tell Ye Feng later that this kid must submit."
Luo Ningyuan made a decision with a smile.
at this time.
Ye Feng, Liu Xiyu, Jobs, and Cook had already arrived on campus.
Looking at the familiar big banyan tree on campus, there are so many memories here.
The trees are similar every year, but the people are different every year.
Four years ago, I was here, and I was full of familiar classmates.
Standing here this year, I have never met new classmates.
Ye Feng smiled and pointed to Jobs: "This is where I studied before. I came from a small mountain village. When I was a child, I was confused and didn't know anything. It was only when I came here that I learned advanced knowledge and advanced technology. I have to say that Southwest University is really a good school."
Ye Feng pointed to the students entering and leaving the campus and said, "The school anniversary is the graduation of senior students in the school. The day of reunion is another day of separation. Alas, life is like this.
"Chengcheng is a beautiful city."
"The people in Rongcheng are hospitality and polite."
Both Jobs and Cook nodded.
Thanks to Principal Su Xiaolin's prior instructions, the school's students and teachers nodded politely when they met Ye Feng, Jobs and others, and they would never watch.
Leave a great impression on guests from afar.
After visiting the campus, Ye Feng felt that the time was almost over.
Leading the road, Liu Xiyu slowly walked towards the sports activity center.
Here, there are tens of thousands of people waiting for them.
...
Stepping onto the Avenue of Stars.
The beam of light shone on Ye Feng and Jobs.
Liu Xiyu and Cook, behind them, completely became foils.
Su Xiaolin stood in front of the podium and announced loudly: "Next, please invite our most honorable guest, the great leader of technological innovation, the inventor of Mac computers, the founder of Apple, the chairman and president of the United States, to speak."
As soon as he finished speaking, tens of thousands of people in the sports center let out deafening applause.
The huge applause made the sports center seem to collapse.
Jobs was wearing a white shirt and jeans, which was very casual.
But at this moment, no one thought there was anything wrong with his clothes, but instead gave him enough respect.
Jobs walked onto the stage and shook hands with Su Xiaolin who had stepped down and passed by.
Behind it is endless applause.
Even a few years later, he received a gift from Stanford, the world's top university, and the gift he received was a terrible one compared to today.
This situation will be remembered freshly by him forever.
Jobs walked up and stood on the podium.
Take out the speech that has been prepared and slowly tear it off in front of everyone.
Preaching in a slightly slower English before the microphone:
"Today, I am honored to attend your school celebration and your graduation ceremony. Southwest University in China is one of the best universities I have ever been to. I have never graduated from university. To be honest, today may be the closest day in my life to graduate from university. Today I want to tell you two stories in my life. It is not a big deal, it is just two stories."
"The first story is the little bits and pieces of life."
“I dropped out after six months at Reed University, but eighteen months later – before I actually made the decision to drop out, I went to school often. So, why should I drop out?”
"The story starts when I was born. My biological mother was a young, unmarried graduate student at the time. She decided to let someone else adopt me. She really wanted me to be adopted by a college graduate. So when I was born, she had everything ready and I would be adopted by a lawyer and his wife. But she didn't expect that when I was born, the lawyer couple suddenly decided that what they wanted was a girl."
"So my adoptive parents suddenly received a call in the middle of the night: "We have a baby boy here that our biological parents cannot raise. Do you want him?" They replied: "Of course!" But my biological mother then found out that my adoptive mother had not graduated from college, and my father had not even graduated from high school. She refused to sign the adoption contract. It was only a few months later that my parents promised her to let me go to college, and she agreed at that time."
"At the age of seventeen, I really went to college. But I foolishly chose a very expensive school, and my parents were just blue-collar workers, and my tuition almost cost all their savings. Six months later, I couldn't see the value. I didn't know what I wanted to do in my life, and I didn't know how college could help me find the answer."
"But here, I spent almost all my parents' savings in my life. So I decided to drop out and believe that everything would work. I was really scared at the time, but now looking back, it was indeed the best decision I have ever made in my life. When I dropped out, I finally didn't have to take courses that made me uninterested, and then I could also take courses that seemed interesting."
"But the fact is not that romantic. I have no dormitory, so I can only sleep on the floor of my friend's room, I go and pick up coke bottles and sell them for five cents so I can buy some food, and on Sunday nights I will walk seven miles to the Hare Krishna Temple on the other end of the city. I can eat the only full meal every week. I love the communion. I follow my intuition and curiosity and come across a lot of things that have proven to be priceless since then."
"Let me give an example: at that time, Reed University offered the best art character courses in the United States. In this university, every poster, every drawer, every label was beautiful handwritten art character. Because I dropped out of school and didn't have to take those regular courses, I decided to take this course and learn how to write beautiful art characters."
"I learned the sanserif and serif fonts, I learned how to change the length of spaces in different combinations of letters, and how to make the best printing style. It's a beautiful, historical art exquisiteness that science can never capture, and I found that it was so wonderful."
"At that time, there seemed to be nothing that could be applied in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing our first Mac computer, it returned to me. I designed all the guys I learned to go into the Mac. It was the first computer to use beautiful printed fonts. If I had never taken that course in college, the Mac computer would not have multiple fonts or appropriately separated fonts."
"Because Microsoft is copying Mac computers, it is very likely that there will be no such thing on personal computers. If I hadn't dropped out of school, I wouldn't have attended this calligraphy class, and my personal computers wouldn't have magical printing techniques like they are now. Of course, when I was in college, I could not have connected the bits and pieces of the future, but when I looked back on all this ten years later, I really realized it."
"Again, you can't connect the fragments of the future; you can only connect the bits and pieces when reviewing. So you have to believe that these fragments will be connected in some way on a certain day in the future. You have to believe in something: your courage, destiny, life, cause and condition, whatever. This method never disappoints me, it just makes my life more unique."
Jobs' first story was told.
The students at the scene were shocked.
They are just a group of young people in their teens and twenties.
The story of Jobs starting a garage business is very popular, and many books talk about how great he is and how respectable he is.
Today, he talked about his childhood experiences like gossip.
It turns out that such a great person is an adopted son. He has not graduated from university due to tuition fees, and even fell to picking up bottles to make a living.
With such conditions, Jobs still embarked on his great and legendary life path.
I have to say.
The shock that Jobs brought to his classmates was too great.
Even after the first story was told, all that everyone was left with deep thoughts.
Chapter completed!
