"Yu Hua, why do you want to study abroad? I think many people in the class think you are like a deserter." Zhou Yuan, his deskmate, leaned over and whispered to Yu Hua, who was about to copy his homework.
"Then what do you think?"
Hearing this, Yu Hua smiled and responded.
"I don't think you look like it. There are two reasons. First, I heard that your father is a soldier and is stationed on the front line of Marco Polo Bridge. You don't look like a deserter. Second, you have been classmates for several years. Your personality and conduct are definitely not the best."
Cowards and their like.”
Zhou Yuan looked at Yu Hua's appearance, his face was slightly serious, and he said solemnly: "Everyone has his own ambitions, and this path of learning from the foreigners and developing skills to control the foreigners has been proved to be correct by practice."
After decades of verification, the correctness of the strategic idea of learning from the foreigners and developing skills to control the foreigners is beyond doubt, and it is very necessary to learn from the advanced aspects of the West.
When Yu Hua heard Zhou Yuan's words, he was slightly surprised, pondered for a while, and said: "I believe that our country will withstand all tests, but I don't want to see our country continue to lag behind. Although Japan is strong, it is not as powerful as other European countries."
But the United States is a dwarf in front of us. If we only care about the present and not the future, even if we have withstood all the tests, in the end we will still not be able to change the fact that we are lagging behind."
"Yu Hua, what do you mean?" Zhou Yuan was a little confused.
"Those who lag behind will be beaten."
Looking at Zhou Yuan, who was a little confused, Yu Hua's words had an indescribable calmness: "We can't lag behind anymore."
No! Absolutely not!
There can be a gap, there can be a disparity, there can be a defeat, there can be a deficit, but you can never fall behind.
Because falling behind means getting beaten, even painful ones, because others just want to hit you.
The words were as calm as water, without any momentum, but they were like thunder, exploding in Zhou Yuan's ears.
Zhou Yuan was stunned on the spot, and his mind went blank. Only these words were left. After a few seconds, he finally realized what he said and couldn't help but stand up: "Yu Hua, what you said is really good."
As soon as the words came out, all the self-study students in the classroom immediately raised their heads and cast doubtful eyes on Zhou Yuan.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I'm sorry." Zhou Yuan felt the gazes of everyone and immediately reacted. With his mind clear, he apologized to the disturbed classmates around him, then quickly sat down and looked at Yu Hua with blazing eyes.
Very good.
This sentence is really very good.
Those who lag behind will be beaten!
In just one sentence, the entire China's experience of nearly a hundred years is described thoroughly, nakedly and directly.
Since the Opium War, China has been reduced to a colony of others. It has signed treaties one after another that humiliates the country and has suffered humiliation. The Chinese nation has been called the sick man of East Asia. Wherever it goes, it cannot raise its head to look at others.
behind!
This is what it means to be a laggard.
When Zhou Yuan heard this, he was shocked at first, and then he felt his whole body trembling. His limbs could not help but tremble slightly. The blood flowing throughout his body gradually heated up, as if it was about to boil. He had countless things he wanted to say in his heart, but he didn't know how to say them.
"Yu Hua, Zhou Yuan has been taught. The National Tsinghua University admission score for science last year was 606. This year it may not be lower than 608. Are you sure?" Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and asked Yu Hua. His score ranked No.
Thirteenth, determined to be admitted to the National Chiao Tung University, while Yu Hua, the fourteenth, was determined to be admitted to the National Tsinghua University.
As China's top institution of higher learning, which is a level higher than Jiaotong University, Tsinghua ranks at the top of the university system pyramid. Last year, the admission score for science was 606, and the admission score for literature was 630.
With Yu Hua's score of 594 points, which ranked fourteenth in the class, he still had a gap of twelve points if he wanted to reach the admission limit of Tsinghua University last year.
Don't underestimate this twelve points.
In terms of hard work and hard work, all the students in Class 1 of Science are the same. If you study ten hours a day, my study time will not be less than ten hours and one second.
The difference of 12 points, where is the difference?
Talent and accumulation.
Talent determines the upper limit, and precipitation determines the foundation.
Many times, what seems like a short period of time is actually as far out of reach as a chasm in the sky.
Moreover, if you want to be admitted to National Tsinghua University, you must exceed the admission line by 20 points like class president Li Fan, and your score should be stable at around 625 points.
After seeing Yu Hua's ambition and ideas, Zhou Yuan already had a faint hope in his heart, that is, he expected Yu Hua to be admitted to the National Tsinghua University.
"I'm not sure, but I'm a little confident. There are still five months left. I hope I can reach the admission limit of Tsinghua University." Hearing Zhou Yuan's question, Yu Hua raised his head and smiled: "People always have to be ambitious."
Ambition is necessary. If a person has no ambition, he is no different from a salted fish.
"Ambition..." Seeing Yu Hua's confident face, Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment and fell into thinking.
Yu Hua opened the arithmetic textbook and asked, "I heard that you were just preparing to take the SJTU exam and wanted to become an artillery scientist?"
"Well, China's weakness lies in all aspects. The performance of military weapons and equipment is lagging behind, especially artillery. The performance and quantity development level of artillery are far inferior to Japan. I have been fond of ballistic calculations and artillery since I was a child, and I plan to become an artillery scientist.
Research advanced artillery for China." Zhou Yuan said seriously with a serious face.
Becoming an artillery scientist has been Zhou Yuan's dream since he was a child.
Since the September 18th Incident, Japan has invaded the three northeastern provinces. The Japanese army has repeatedly won victories with the power of artillery. The National Revolutionary Army has failed again and again and lost large areas of territory.
So much so that now, Pingjin has been surrounded by the Japanese army, the buildings are about to collapse, and the mountains and rivers are falling before our eyes.
"With your results, Jiaotong University is basically stable, but why not give it a try? The resources that Tsinghua University and Peking University can provide you are much higher than Jiaotong University." Yu Hua nodded, looked at Zhou Yuan's expression, and said seriously.
As one of the oriental institutions of higher learning established in the Qing Dynasty, Jiaotong University was known as the 'MIT of the East'. Its teaching materials all used English textbooks from MIT. It was the second echelon of the university system during the Republic of China, second only to the first echelon.
.
However, the second child is the second child and can never be compared to Qingbei.
With Zhou Yuan's score of 599 in the final exam, it is almost certain that he will be admitted to Jiaotong University, but why not try harder and look forward to National Tsinghua University and even National Peking University?
Whether it is Tsinghua University or Peking University, the level and resources are much higher than that of Jiaotong University. It is easier for Zhou Yuan to become an artillery scientist.
"Give it a try..."
Zhou Yuan was thoughtful and lost in thought. As the thirteenth in the class, he did have hope of giving it a try. He was silent for a few seconds and his eyes shone brightly: "You are right, I do have hope of being admitted to Qingbei."
"I hope we can become university alumni." Looking at Zhou Yuan, Yu Hua smiled, raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuan also smiled, raised his right hand and made a fist, and bumped it with Yu Hua's fist: "Together with you, I hope we can study for the rise of China like classmate Xiangyu!"
"Let's encourage each other." Yu Hua smiled.
The two sides remained silent.
Zhou Yuan, ignited with a fighting spirit, opened the book and began to study by himself, devoting himself wholeheartedly to the intense and busy study.
Yu Hua came back to his senses, holding the pen in his right hand, carefully copying the holiday homework, efficiently and quickly.
The future and the distance are worth thinking about, but the present and homework must be paid attention to.
In the classroom, all the students were writing furiously. Born in this era, as those who have been exposed to knowledge, they all have an inexplicable sense of urgency in their hearts.
effort!
Work hard for China. Only in this way will China not perish.
