Chapter 267: It’s just a speech, come on!
"Hello, everyone. I am your friend Li Mo. I am very honored to come to Shanghai University to meet you all today. Let me make it clear in advance that I am here for free. I have not charged a penny."
"Ha ha ha ha ......"
Since Li Mo was the host, he naturally didn't need help from others. After entering the venue, he took the microphone and aroused laughter from many students as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Ahem... As for me, I came here this time because of a friend. She told me that her students had encountered some minor troubles, so she hoped that through a competition, she would make them full of desire for victory, so that they would have the idea of never giving up, and not just lie down on this hurdle for a while when they encounter difficulties."
"Of course, I personally neither agree nor disagree with this approach. After all, I am not a professional teacher. I even know that many of the students here, especially those studying classical Chinese and philosophy, are much better than I said. Although they all make a living by talking..."
"Ha ha ha ha......"
"So, I won't talk about the big principles, because many of you understand it or even say it better than me. I just want to state a fact. First of all, boys, I also have the same situation as you, always complaining about everything. Why doesn't the girl I like like me, but she likes the so-called school idol in the next class? I'm obviously no worse than him."
"The reason is actually very simple. Look at what people have. Socks that haven't been washed in years, shoes that have been hanging for a month, and underwear that can stand up if thrown on the ground?"
"Ha ha ha ha......"
"I know that many of my classmates will say that they are richer than me, have better family background than me, and their academic performance is not as good as ours. I think this is normal. You have studied hard for more than ten years and want to be able to match the family background accumulated by three generations of others. Isn't this obviously unrealistic? You are not the only one who is working hard. You only see that a certain classmate drives a luxury car to school, but you don't see that his parents, or even grandparents, suffered contempt, unfair treatment, and misunderstanding from relatives and neighbors when they were working hard."
Li Mo's words shocked many students present, and even many school leaders. They originally thought that Li Mo would say something encouraging, but no one expected that Li Mo's speech would be like this. The key is that after careful consideration, it is really full of practical information.
"Although I feel a little embarrassed, I also know that some people here are my fans and may know more about my background than I do. I won't talk about my childhood, let's start from college. I entered college with my first semester's tuition, and have been here for four years until now. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bragging about how well I've done. In fact, now that I think about it, I was pretty stupid. Wouldn't it be good to go home and inherit the family business? Why would I show off for no reason?"
"Hahahahaha..."
"So, what I want to say is just one thing, don't always think that fate is unfair to you, why didn't you have a good background, a good family, a good environment, wake up, fate has no time to care about any of us, this is the reality."
"Actually, I don't need to tell you that this friend of mine is Teacher Hu Yifei. I believe that many of her classmates know her. They all know that Teacher Hu is a very strong-willed person, no matter what aspect. What she cannot accept is losing to others. She believes that we all have one head on two shoulders, so why should you be better than me?"
"I know that many students find studying difficult, taking exams difficult, and writing papers even more difficult. However, what is likely to happen to many of you in the future? Boys, when you are negotiating a business deal, Party A tells you that you must drink this bottle of liquor, or else he won't sign the contract with you. You clearly know that you will vomit if you drink this liquor, but you have to drink it anyway. At that time, you are not qualified to say you don't want to drink it, because that is related to your life, your work, your family, and your future. In that case, think about it, compared to studying now, which one is more difficult?"
"Girls, you will most likely face a lot of greasy middle-aged uncles in the future. He may be your leader, your boss, or your customer. You know clearly that he is plotting against you, but you have no choice. You must face him and endure being groped by him. Compare it with what you are doing now, which one is more difficult?"
Li Mo's words at this time made many students present fall silent immediately. Even many teachers and leaders in the school did not expect Li Mo to say such a thing.
"I know that many students will say, what's the point of studying? Won't we still face this situation after studying? What's the point of working hard?"
"It's a very simple truth. Your efforts determine your lower limit, while your studies determine your upper limit. Studying is not a direct way to increase your income, but it is a possibility that can increase your opportunities for choice. And you have to learn not only in school, but also in society. Many people feel that what they have learned is of no use in society and they cannot find a suitable major. Why should they work hard? I thought so at the time. The school's clubs, professional courses, and non-professional courses did not seem to be of any practical help to students."
"But please think about it the other way around. Let's not talk about the simplest things like values, emotions, and knowledge. The key is to consider what kind of company will accept what kind of interns. Your academic qualifications and the qualifications you have obtained in your respective disciplines may be your stepping stones to a certain company. All the famous companies in the world will tell you that they don't care about your degree, your qualifications, or your highest academic achievement. I can tell you now that they are all lying, because they will not recruit at a third-rate fake university, and even if they recruit you, you will not even be qualified for an interview. This is reality."
"You can actually test it and see what the results are if you submit different resumes to different companies. This is the reality. Learning is useless because you didn't put it to good use. As for those who lament the unfairness of fate, fate has given you such a fairer opportunity, that is, a fair opportunity to study. But you use this time to lament the unfairness of fate. Isn't this just idle talk?"
"Okay, actually, you just need to listen to these words. Whether you can listen to them and how much you can listen to them is up to you. This is also what the school leaders asked me to say a few words during my visit."
"Ha ha ha ha......"
