I can never advise you to always follow my old path! When I was your age, I untied the boat and let it float out of the dock to meet the storm. No one will listen to the warning. Tagore

Ancient examples:

1. Lu Yu abandoned Buddhism and followed the literature. Lu Yu, a famous scholar in the Tang Dynasty, was an orphan since he was a child and was raised by a Zen master. Lu Yu could have been well-fed in the temple, but he insisted on going down to study, which was opposed by the Zen master. In order to give Lu Yu a difficult problem, the Zen master better educated him and made him learn to make tea. In the process of learning tea art, Lu Yu met a kind old woman. She not only learned complicated tea-making skills, but also learned a lot about reading and being a man. When Lu Yu finally brought the Zen master a steaming cup of Kuding tea, the Zen master finally agreed to his request and went down the mountain to study. Later, Lu Yu wrote the widely circulated Tea Classic, which promoted the tea culture of the motherland.

2. Bao Zheng adjudicates cases. Can be called Bao Qingtian because he is not credulous, but according to the clues at the scene, screen out the suspects and test out the truth.

Modern examples:

1. Zhang Tiemei, general manager of Dongfang Zunyu Real Estate Company.

The Oriental Xinyueju, located opposite the Futian New District Committee, is one of the projects that make Zhang Tiemei proud. At that time, the region was dominated by large huxing, but after grasping the advantages and disadvantages of the plot, Zhang Tiemei resolutely decided to be a small huxing. Facts have proved that her positioning is completely correct. The project took one and a half years to complete, and all the shops and houses were sold out within three months, becoming the first small-sized project in the region, with record sales speed and price.

One of the characteristics of Zhang Tiemei is that she has an independent mind and dares to persist. After the Oriental Xinyueju, Zhang Tiemei entered Xiamen to demonstrate the feasibility of the plot of Oriental Times Square. In 2000, Xiamen had a small foreign population and relatively backward real estate planning, with an average house price of 3,800-4,200 yuan/square meter. Take the land at a high price and you will lose. After analyzing the advantages of the Oriental Times Square plot, Zhang Tiemei made a judgment: "Combining local living habits to make fine products, at least the average price will exceed the surrounding houses 1000 yuan/square meter." Therefore, Zhang Tiemei marked at the end of the feasibility study report: "I personally think so!" In the end, Oriental Times Square was sold out at an average price of 6,500 yuan/square meter.

2. Chen Liqian, a senior three girl from Nanjing Foreign Languages School. I have my own opinion, but I chose the ordinary class when I was admitted to the experimental class.

In 2007, she was admitted to Yale University, the world's top school, and won an annual scholarship of 5 1000 USD. When she was in junior high school in Nanwai, Chen Liqian got good grades. When I was in junior high school and senior high school, I opened a physics and chemistry experimental class outside the school. To the surprise of teachers and parents, she "failed" in the exam, but she was still able to enter the experimental class. Later, I learned that she did not do well in the exam on purpose.

"I don't want to enter the experimental class. I think that entering the experimental class is mainly to attack the competition, and there is no time to develop other hobbies. " Chen Lizhen said. The most difficult thing to convince is her parents. Like many parents, they certainly want their children to enter the experimental class. At that time, Chen Liqian said to her mother, "I can do well in the exam without going to the experimental class, and I can also participate in the competition." "She thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out, so she took the exam to deal with us." Mom and dad are so determined to see their daughter that they have to agree.

Chen Liqian is equally excellent and happy in ordinary classes. In 2006, she won the first prize in the National High School Mathematics League and was eligible for walking. Grade one is higher than grade six; Senior two took the Shanghai Advanced Interpretation Certificate Examination and passed the written examination; Have the title of national second-class athlete (aerobics) and the tenth grade certificate of piano; In the school sports meeting, 100 meter run, 800 meter run and long jump all won medals. ...

In addition to the "experimental class incident", Chen Liqian also made up her mind about choosing liberal arts or science: "Many people say that it is easy for girls in South China to learn liberal arts. But I like science. " She has her own ideas about everything, and she is not blindly obedient or credulous, which is the embodiment of Yale University's "critical thinking".
