Two minutes later, the two arrived at a teachers' dormitory area west of Jiangnan University.
Jiangnan University has several teacher dormitories, which accommodate teachers according to their qualifications and levels. This is the best one among them, specially designed for famous teachers and expert professors.
The name is "Peach and Plum Garden", which means that the world is filled with peaches and plums.
The door is designed in the round arch shape of ancient times, and there is an antique-style wall top made of small yellow tiles on the wall. When you step into the door, you will see a garden surrounded by green bamboos and a rockery pool.
, giving people a green and cheerful mood.
Walking through the quiet path, we arrived at an 8 or 9-story building with white walls and green windows.
"Teacher Yu lives above, wait and see what happens." Chen Yu gave another instruction, and walked into the corridor with Li Qianrou, took the elevator, and arrived at a gate on the seventh floor.
He rang the doorbell.
"Who is it?" A loud voice sounded, and then the door was opened, and Yu Tou's face, although his forehead was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were still sharp and lively, appeared in front of the two of them.
"Chen Yu! - Li Qianrou, why are you here?" Unexpectedly, the first person he recognized was Chen Yu, whom he had not seen for several years, followed by the current student Li Qianrou, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Hello, Teacher Yu!" Li Qianrou said obediently.
Chen Yu bowed to him respectfully and said, "Teacher Yu, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your voice is still so loud and your health is still so good!"
Yu Tou looked at him carefully and said: "It's okay, it's okay. Come on, come in and sit down. You haven't seen me for a while."
Seeing that he spoke directly, Chen Yu said with a hint of shame on his face: "Students are ashamed because they are burdened with trivial matters."
Yu Tou nodded and asked strangely: "So you two know each other? By the way, you both came from the capital."
Li Qianrou smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Yu and I have known each other since childhood, so I came to visit the teacher with him tonight."
Yu Tou suddenly said: "No wonder you laughed so happily when I talked about Chen Yu in class!"
Li Qianrou nodded "yes" and said, "Yes, of course I am happy to hear the teacher praise my brother."
Yu Tou looked at Chen Yu who took the initiative to make tea and said: "Compared with Yenching University, the learning atmosphere at Jiangnan University is still a little worse. You are from Yenching, why didn't you go to Yenching University and come here instead?
"
Li Qianrou's big eyes rolled, but she didn't speak yet. Yu Tou looked stunned again and said: "I understand, you came here to find a boyfriend? These days, girls are becoming more and more proactive. I think back then, how could we
It’s all men who take the initiative…”
Li Qianrou lowered her head in embarrassment and did not deny it. Her face was as beautiful as a peach.
When Yu Tou saw this, he thought he had guessed right. He said proudly: "When you are young, you have to travel around. Only when you gain knowledge can you practice knowledge! Li Qianrou, you are very spiritual. Learn more from Chen Yu, and I will do it again."
If I take you with me, you will become a good scholar."
Li Qianrou secretly stuck out her tongue at Chen Yu but did not answer.
Seeing this, Yu Tou shook his head and said, "You don't want to follow me just like your brother Yu? The current academic style is not good. Every good seedling doesn't want to be a scholar. It's a waste."
Chen Yu had already finished brewing a set of tea sets with boiling water, and used the boiling water to make tea. He respectfully poured a cup for Yu Tou. Then he said: "Teacher Yu, I am not in the temple, and I am worried about the world. Isn't it okay?"
Yu Tou said: "That's right. You know how to refute me with what I said. But learning is different. Without full dedication, it is difficult to achieve something. Look at those so-called young scholars today, they are too impetuous.
, If you can’t calm down and study in a down-to-earth manner, you won’t get good results.”
Chen Yu said: "I agree with Teacher Yu on this point. Especially some people who rely on hyping up hot news topics to increase their popularity and bring indirect benefits are really not worthy of the title of experts and scholars."
Yu Tou said: "That's true. I'm not very happy to join in the fun. Anyway, now that I'm old and famous, I'm not lacking in benefits either, haha!"
Chen Yu continued to pour the tea and added: "I recently read Teacher Yu's new work. I feel that the teacher's vision keeps up with the times. Some of his views are relatively novel, and I have benefited a lot."
Yu Tou said directly: "Tell me and listen."
Chen Yu sat up straight and said: "Teacher Yu's new work last year "Public Game in Reform" mentioned that the party with the right to speak in the media has gradually separated from the official color with the progress of the times, and may even be
Occupied by the people. I very much agree with this."
Yu Tou then nodded and said: "This is the fact. Traditionally, it is always believed that the media is controlled by the government. However, after my investigation and participation, I found that the situation is changing. Although the government still has relatively powerful resources and platforms,
, but because of their sensitive identities, they often lose their advantage and become a vulnerable group in the media and public opinion. This can be regarded as a deformity in the reform and a process that must be endured. "
Chen Yu nodded secretly, knowing that his mentor was a supporter of the "moderate reformers", and added: "Reform comes step by step. At this stage, the transfer of the media's right to speak is, to a certain extent, a good thing.
, it will not only make it easier for people to express their rights and interests, but also make the government pay more attention to and restrict their own behavior. But things always have two sides, and this situation has also led some people to take advantage of this situation and use the media discourse in the country
The tilt of power and the grabbing of one's own interests, especially when well-known public figures are involved, are even more destructive and covert."
Yu Tou glanced at him and said: "Chen Yu, it seems that I haven't seen you for two years, but you are still paying more attention to this aspect. I quite agree with your article comparing the Chinese and American models.
The differences in public administration courses directly lead to students’ attitudes in responding to public events, which in turn has a profound impact on the entire population. The reason why our country has this abnormal situation at this stage is related to the role of our traditional education in public affairs.
Management deficiencies and indifference are integral to this.”
After a pause, Yu Tou said: "But there is one thing I don't agree with. That is your suggestion that we must gradually start from the field of education, focusing on campus. I think we must lead students to boldly participate in practice. This will be more effective."
Quick and effective.”
Chen Yu was silent for a while and said: "Teacher Yu, I think that if you lead students to boldly participate in practice, you can certainly gain this kind of progress, but there are also risks. Students are insufficient in mental and social experience, and they need to be managed and managed in an appropriate way.
Guidance, otherwise if the scale becomes large, it will easily go to the other extreme - in this regard, we do not lack lessons."
Yu Tou responded: "You are right. When I was younger, I also liked to take students to participate in public practice activities, and even directly participate in public events. But after experiencing some things, I still hold this view now.
But generally I don’t want to participate. Even if I participate, I will participate alone. Anyway, it’s not a big problem for me as an old man.”
Chen Yu said: "Teacher Yu, with your influence and appeal, even if you participate casually, it will have a big impact."
Yu Tou smiled and said: "Chen Yu, you are worrying too much. In fact, I participate in very few activities now. There was an event recently that Yang Qingqing invited me to participate in. - Yang Qingqing, do you understand?"
Seeing that he took the initiative to talk about the topic, Chen Yu cheered up and responded: "Of course I understand. He used to be the editor-in-chief of a newspaper, but now he is an independent writer. He likes to participate in some public activities. Teacher Yu, why did you participate?"
Yu Toudao: "Originally I was not very interested, but he took the book "Public Chess in Reform" that you just mentioned and pointed out that there were several arguments in it that lacked practical examples. This time he invited me to attend a Jiang'an meeting.
The symposium on the incident will definitely enrich the subject matter in this area. That’s why I agreed.”
So that’s it! Chen Yu couldn’t help but secretly scold Yang Qingqing for being cunning. He actually used Yu Tou’s strong interest in academics to find an excuse to get him to participate in that so-called symposium!
"Teacher Yu, I think it is not suitable for you to participate in that symposium." Chen Yucai took a deep breath and said slowly. (To be continued...)
