"Young man, well done. The writing is good and the content is even better. You have taught all of us a lesson today. Students, do you understand the meaning of this painting?"
Yuan Qing looked at the students below. After hearing the principal's words, the students started talking.
"Principal, you are the authority, please explain it to us."
one student shouted loudly, and other students followed suit.
"Haha, okay, young man, let me explain it to you. Come and see if my interpretation is correct?"
Yuan Qing looked at Zhang Fan with a smile on his face.
"It's my blessing that Principal Yuan can come to interpret it."
Zhang Fan's words made Yuan Qing smile slightly. Looking at this calligraphy, the more Yuan Qing looked at it, the more he liked it. Running script, beautiful running script. This skill is so profound that if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Yuan Qing would never have believed that this calligraphy was a twenty.
Written by an artist of many years.
"Okay, then let me explain it to you. The way of a university is easy to understand. It is the purpose of a university. But what I want to say is that this university is not a university as you understand it. This article is ancient prose,"
The word "university" has two meanings in ancient times: one is the meaning of "eruditeness"; the other is "adult learning" compared to primary school.
". The ancients entered primary school at the age of eight and learned basic cultural knowledge and etiquette such as "sweeping and sweeping to deal with advancement and retreat, etiquette, music, archery, and numbers"; they entered university at the age of fifteen and learned ethics, politics, philosophy, etc.
Knowledge. Therefore, the latter meaning is actually similar to the former meaning, and it also means "erudite"."
Yuan Qing is an expert in ancient literature, and his explanation immediately attracted bursts of applause from the students.
"So this article can be interpreted like this. The purpose of the university is to promote upright moral character, learn and apply it to life, and enable people to reach the most perfect state. Only when you know the state you should reach can you have firm ambitions; only if you have firm aspirations can you be calm and calm.
; not calm
Only when you are impatient can you have peace of mind; only when you have peace of mind can you think carefully; only by thinking carefully can you gain something. Everything has roots and branches, and everything has a beginning and an end. If you understand this principle, you will be close to the development of things.
It’s a regular pattern…”
Yuan Qing began to interpret the general outline seriously, and the students below also listened very carefully.
"Young man, am I right?"
After reading the first paragraph, Yuan Qing looked at Zhang Fan and asked.
"Principal Yuan's interpretation is not bad at all..."
Zhang Fan said with a smile that Yuan Qing is indeed an expert in ancient literature, and his interpretation is not bad at all.
"Okay, let's continue reading the second paragraph. The second paragraph says that in ancient times, those who wanted to promote upright moral character in the world must first govern their own country; if they wanted to govern their country well, they must first manage their own families.
and family; if you want to manage your own family and family well, you must first cultivate your own character; if you want to cultivate your own
To cultivate your own character, you must first correct your thoughts; if you want to correct your thoughts, you must make your thoughts sincere; if you want to make your thoughts sincere, you must first gain knowledge; the way to gain knowledge is through understanding.
Study all things. Only by understanding all things can we gain knowledge after studying..."
The people below listened very carefully. This series of philosophical things is worth pondering, especially for these students. Seeing the children below listening carefully, Yuan Qing smiled slightly and continued to explain.
"After acquiring knowledge, thoughts can be sincere; after thoughts are sincere, the mind can be correct; after the mind is correct, the character can be cultivated; after character is cultivated, the family and family can be managed well; the family and family can be managed well before the country can be governed; and the country can be governed well.
Only then can the world be at peace.
From the head of state to the common people, everyone must take cultivation of character as the foundation. If this foundation is disturbed, it will be impossible to govern the family, family, country, and the world well. Regardless of priorities, putting the cart before the horse but trying to do a good job
Things, this is also impossible..."
After Yuan Qing finished his interpretation, the audience burst into warm applause.
"Young man, am I interpreting it correctly?"
Yuan Qing looked at Zhang Fan.
"Principal Yuan, your interpretation is accurate. I've made a fool of myself in front of you."
Zhang Fan said quickly.
"Where can I show off my ugliness? When it comes to showing off my ugliness, I should show off my ugliness. Anyone who can write such an article is a top scholar. Well done..."
Yuan Qing sincerely praises this article. This article is so good. It can be called a Confucian classic.
"Thank you principal for the compliment."
Zhang Fan said quickly.
"Young man, do you usually study Confucianism?"
Yuan Qing asked curiously.
"It's just a bit of dabbling. I like to read some books when I have nothing to do. Confucianism is our traditional Chinese culture, and it contains many philosophies of life."
Zhang Fan nodded and whispered.
"Okay, okay, today's young people are too impetuous, and fewer and fewer people like Chinese studies. Young man, can you give this painting to me?"
Yuan Qing swallowed his saliva while looking at this calligraphy. This calligraphy was so amazing. Zhang Fan looked at Yuan Qing and laughed. This old man really knows what he is doing. In order to write this calligraphy, Zhang Fan ate a lot of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy.
Regarding experience books, Wang Xizhi was the first person to write calligraphy.
"sure……"
Zhang Fan nodded. This piece of calligraphy is as much as Zhang Fan wants. Now that this piece of calligraphy can establish a good relationship with the president of Jiaotong University, it is naturally a dream.
"Then I'll be disrespectful. By the way, leave your name, leave your name. You should get a seal..."
Yuan Qing said with a smile, Zhang Fan smiled and wrote his name.
"Good words, good words..."
Yuan Qing looked at the words and carefully put them away.
"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore. Young man, you just said you never went to college, right?"
Yuan Qing looked at Zhang Fan and asked, Zhang Fan nodded.
"Are you interested in coming to study at our Jiaotong University? You can choose your major, I'm specially recruiting..."
After these words were spoken, everyone's eyes widened. Special recruitment, special recruitment by the principal, and random selection of majors. This is not something ordinary people can have. Anyone who is specially recruited by the principal personally means that they are absolute talents.
"Good boy, that's awesome..."
"Brother Fan is so awesome..."
"ox……"
"I admire Brother Fan the most as an artist..."
"Who dares to compete with Brother Fan..."
"That's awesome..."
The people below started talking. In fact, the status of artists is not high in the eyes of these traditional scholars. Not only do they not like them, but they also hate them. In their eyes, these people are so-called actors.
Especially the current entertainment industry is very impetuous. Therefore, except for those art colleges, other schools do not have a good impression of these stars. Even Leng Yuefei, if Leng Yuefei was not a student of Jiaotong University, it would be impossible for her to hold the ceremony at Jiaotong University.
Book signing.
Now, Yuan Qing has launched a special move against Zhang Fan, which means that Zhang Fan has conquered the old man in front of him.
