Because it's unfair that someone occasionally talks about him behind his back.
A college graduate did not run down from his official position, but was admitted to the post of leading cadre by his own efforts. He was ecstatic and was still regarded as a laughing stock hundreds of years later. Some people may question whether Jin Fan is a Big Ben. The answer is naturally yes.
Some people compare the imperial examination system to the modern higher education examination system in China, which is obviously wrong. The ancient imperial examination system is not only an educational system, but also an official selection system. It is divided into children's examination and formal examination (Ming and Qing dynasties). The first type of sub-examination, also called scholar, is a pre-test before taking the official imperial examination. The formal examination is divided into provincial examination and palace examination.
Comparing the undergraduate course to a scholar is a compliment, and the doctor's position is only a scholar. Therefore, Jin Fan is not an ordinary civil servant with hundreds of people competing for a position now, but a leading cadre with a degree or above.
As for ordinary civil servants, they are just officials, not officials. They didn't check your education at all, and there was no formal admission system, such as any law.
So does Jin Fan belong to the so-called rational application that we are calling for now? This need not be demonstrated by Maslow's hierarchy of human needs. Look at the occupation at that time. Pig slayers and singers already belong to the white-collar class. It can be seen that as an intellectual, Jin Fan has almost no room for career choice. There is really no other way to go. Don't die unless you are an official, so it is natural to try to be 60 years old.
Reflecting on us now, some people in their sixties took the college entrance examination, but they still failed, which means that even the children failed in the exam, and they were also praised as beautiful talks, which can be said to be advancing with the times.
Why are you so hard on an ancient man?
In the past, there was a tendency to generalize the evaluation of imperial examinations, and people often quoted extreme individual cases from people in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
As a general situation, denying the selection efficiency of the whole imperial examination system is indeed a misunderstanding of the imperial examination system. In the imperial examination system
Today, nearly a hundred years after its abolition, it is necessary to re-understand and evaluate the imperial examination system. The imperial examination system is not what many people think.
So bad, at least it can be said that the imperial examination is not a bad system, that is, a "non-evil system." "imperial examination"
It is a word with rich meanings, far from being as simple as "evil" in the past, and we should not regard it as a derogatory term.
Italian word, but "imperial examination" should be regarded as a neutral word.
Although the imperial examination system died in 1905, it is a historical system that has long passed, but it still exists in a potential form.
Around us. The great influence of the imperial examination system can be felt in China's culture, education, social psychology and many other aspects.
Suffering, however, the evaluation of the imperial examination system in the past was too low, and there were a lot of misunderstandings and generalizations. "It seems that this is appropriate.
Drawing lessons from the past, nothing can be done today. "This is an old saying that people often realize and are willing to quote. Because history often
There are often striking similarities, so we can learn from the past. However, with the "past serving the present"
Relatively speaking, there is also a problem of "knowing the present and learning from the past", and the two are complementary. On the one hand, we can learn from the past and understand the present.
On the other hand, understanding the present also helps to understand the past. With the understanding of modern examination problems, we can see the subjects more clearly.
The true face of the system. A comprehensive, calm and objective study of the imperial examination system shows that the imperial examination system is not bad.
Conclusion.

Abolish the common name of unified examiners. Over the years, people who advocate the "theory of all evils in the joint examination" in Taiwan Province Province generally "simply put the joint examination.
Compared with the previous imperial examination, it is a means to "demonize" the defeated object. "1 However, the imperial examination
The system itself is demonized. Modern people often regard the fictional Jin Fan and Kong Yiji in literary works as imperial examiners.
The representative of things, but I don't know many really outstanding imperial examination talents. In fact, the imperial examination system once created and chose the society at that time.
First-class talents such as Jin Fan and Kong Yiji reflect the truth of history, but they are fiction in literary works after all.
