After lunch, Teacher Liu went to Sun Dahai's room to take a nap.
Sun Dahai's lunch break is very casual. If the weather is bad or he is too lazy to move, he will take a nap. Otherwise, he will be full of energy and go about his business.
Today, Teacher Liu was resting here, and Sun Dahai did not go back to his room. Instead, he was reading the latest newspaper on the sofa in the living room.
Since his rebirth, Sun Dahai has always paid great attention to the collection of various information. First, he must observe the development of major events at any time and compare whether they follow the trajectory of his previous life; second, he must be familiar with current people's ideologies and expressions;
The third is to pave the way for your future predictive words and deeds.
It's just that in mainland China, reform and opening up has just begun, and various ideological trends and struggles at various levels are emerging one after another.
The valuable information that Sun Dahai obtained from public channels is really very limited. The information on TV, newspapers and radio is either official and cliche with empty content;
After singing, I came on stage. It was more than lively, but not enough in substance.
But the really useful information is basically all shrouded in fog, wrapped up and concealed. As for financial information, in this era when business negotiations are ugly and it is shameful to ask for money, there is even less.
If Sun Dahai had been in politics in his previous life, even if he was just a small employee in an agency, he would have enough experience to analyze the current situation and analyze more useful information.
Unfortunately, he is not. His work experience makes him analyze and judge more through specific figures.
Therefore, Sun Dahai spent a lot of time watching the news, reading newspapers, and listening to the radio every day in the capital. Fortunately, the nature and level of his mother Li Cuifeng's job allowed him to bring back a large number of free newspapers and magazines every day.
His real source of information was obtained from Mr. Huang and his parents who looked at internal references. The three of them have different administrative levels and different natures of work units. Each of them has several different internal references every day.
Some readers may have misunderstood. There is not only one kind of internal reference. Major news organizations and agencies and ministries will formulate their own internal reference information. Different versions will be formulated according to the administrative level and nature of work and sent to specific groups of people.
Huang Lao, Sun Weiguo, and Li Cuifeng are at the ministerial, department, and division levels respectively, and their work units span agriculture, construction, and news organizations.
Therefore, the internal reference data they receive every day covers a wide range of information.
As for confidentiality, most of the families of officials in the capital only regard internal reference as a collection of news that should not be circulated to outsiders. They are not as serious as they take confidential documents and red-headed documents.
Sun Dahai has always behaved well and acted like a little adult. With the attitude of Mr. Huang and his family towards him, I am afraid that even if Sun Dahai doesn't want to watch it, they will take the initiative to ask him to watch it in order to increase his knowledge and understand the real social situation.
Ever since Sun Dahai came to Xiangjiang, he has been at home like a fish in water. The news here is developed and all kinds of information are gathered. Although it is not as good as the Internet era in the previous life, it is much better than the capital in 1982.
Sun Dahai is hungry for political updates, financial news, science and technology briefings, cultural and sports news, and even entertainment gossip, and he swims in the ocean of information every day.
Fortunately, he made some "little money" after coming to Xiangjiang. Otherwise, the daily book and newspaper fee of nearly 100 Hong Kong dollars would be enough to bankrupt an ordinary Xiangjiang person.
Just like Ren Kuei before him, his average monthly income was just over 2,000 points, which was not enough for Sun Dahai to buy a newspaper for a month.
After taking the boat for more than a day, most of Teacher Liu's family went to rest after dinner.
Liu Yang was young and didn't want to take a nap, so he read the newspaper with Sun Dahai.
He doesn't read newspapers as extensively as Sun Dahai. He only reads scientific and technological information. Most of the newspapers Sun Dahai buys are comprehensive or financial newspapers. He can't understand the more professional science magazines, so he doesn't buy them.
.
Liu Yang quickly finished reading the newspaper.
Seeing this, Sun Dahai also put down an interview with Xu Guanjie in his hand and chatted with Liu Yang about work.
"Uncle Yang, you returned to Wanwan at the beginning of the year? Why don't you continue your studies or work in the United States?"
"It's like this. Grandpa (Teacher Liu) is old and not in good health. Your aunt and I just finished graduate school. We discussed that we should go back to Wanwan to get married first, so that the old man can be happy.
I have now received several small projects from several research institutes in Wanwan, and I am helping them complete them. Your aunt is also working in an electronics company.
Next year, your aunt and I still plan to return to the United States. We will split up, one will study further, and the other will continue to work, so that our financial pressure will be much less."
"You are majoring in mathematics. What will you do after you graduate? Will you join the university and become a professor like Teacher Liu and Grandpa Liu?" Sun Dahai started to pretend to be stupid.
"Teaching as a teacher is a career choice. Those of us who study mathematics can do many jobs, such as actuaries in the banking and insurance industry, data analysis in the securities industry, and modeling and statistics in some large enterprises. In mainland China, we may still be able to do a lot of jobs.
There is no such segmented work."
"I don't know the specifics. There should be similar jobs, but they are not divided in such detail. Several of my father's colleagues are from the Department of Mathematics at Huaqing University and work in the construction industry."
"Yes, mathematics and philosophy are the basis of all sciences, and their applications are very wide."
While they were chatting, the door opened, and Teacher Liu sat in a wheelchair and came out on his own.
Sun Dahai quickly stood up, ran over to help Teacher Liu push the wheelchair, and said: "Teacher Liu, you didn't even call me when you woke up, so I could help you get into the wheelchair."
Teacher Liu smiled kindly and said: "Hai Dahai, your observation is still not careful. You see, Ayang didn't react much when he saw me coming out by myself."
He patted his leg gently and said: "I have rheumatoid arthritis, also commonly known as 'Old Cold Legs'. My knees feel uncomfortable after standing for a long time or walking a lot, but it's not that I can't move. Your grandma Hanwen
Even the doctor, she still urges me to do appropriate exercises every day."
Sun Dahai scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I thought you couldn't move your legs."
Teacher Liu said with a smile: "It's not that serious. As people get older, they will naturally have more and more diseases. My disease is caused by hard conditions when I was young and I didn't pay attention to it. You should pay attention to it now.
Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences when you get older. So will you, Ayang."
Sun Dahai and Liu Yang quickly nodded in agreement.
Teacher Liu looked through the newspapers on the coffee table and asked Sun Dahai: "Dahai, have you read all these newspapers?"
"Well, the weather in Xiangjiang is hot and there is a lot of rain. I have been in Xiangjiang for more than a month, and half of the time I spent in my room, watching TV and reading newspapers.
Mainland newspapers now have a lot of repetitive content, unlike here in Xiangjiang, where everything can be reported in newspapers." Sun Daidi replied.
"Then what kind of news do you like to watch?"
"Because my family has a company, I pay more attention to financial and policy news. In addition, I watch news about culture and sports as if they were stories."
"Then do you know how to read the news? A piece of news contains several to two to three hundred words. If you read every word, or read dozens of articles a day, people will not be able to remember it.
In addition, different media may interpret the same news from different angles, resulting in completely opposite conclusions. Do you know how to read the news?”
