The day before yesterday, Gao officially joined Harvard University as a researcher in the Department of East Asian Languages and Literature.

In Weibo, he got a work permit and said excitedly that he would do some research seriously and try to be a good intellectual.

This is something to be happy about. Who knows, the fans' blessings have not been sent out, and the controversy has come:

Is this "researcher" position "advanced" enough?

Some netizens noticed that Gao posted a picture showing that his position at Harvard was associate, so "Popular Science" said: associate at Harvard University requires a bachelor's degree or above, with an invitation letter from a professor in the department, my resume and a statement of English proficiency. Treatment: never pay salary, not counting Harvard employees, not enjoying any benefits, each term is at least three months, which can be extended indefinitely, and the dean will review it every five years.

Bachelor degree, letter of recommendation, no salary, temporary job ... The implication is that the threshold for being a researcher at Harvard is too low. Is it worth saying?

In fact, someone saw Gao in the library of Yanjing Society of Harvard University last year.

The FAS (College of Arts and Sciences) mentioned in the high screenshot includes Harvard's undergraduate, engineering and continuing education colleges, and the largest graduate school (College of Arts and Sciences). His Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations belongs to GSAS.

According to Gao's past experience, although it is not certain whether the school sent abroad or through other channels, at least it is certain that this trip does not require high academic level and has nothing to do with academic ranks such as professors and graduate students. He just went to study and study independently.

Some people "don't like him pretending to be X", but people who like him still like him.

Not everyone, like him, has traveled through Wan Li Road and visited dozens of countries. His greatest hobby is to travel all over the world.

Not everyone read thousands of books like him. "I grew up without Weibo and TV, and Yue Fei was on the radio every day. Everyone grew up reading. At that time, there were many books at home, and the corridors were full of books. "

Many times, he just sat on the show, holding a fan, talking about the places he had been and what interesting things he had encountered, but it was also worth pondering.

Talk about history, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, any topic, can be talked about in Kan Kan.

Talking about the World Cup, he can talk about the feud between the national flag, culture and history of a football power.

There is a topic in "Seven Pa Shuo", which is about life and death: "A terminally ill patient in pain wants to give up his life. Should he be encouraged to stick to it? "

Gao's answer is, I will encourage you to stick to it, but I also respect your choice. I want to tell you a word:

You are a star.

I am the star around you.

My whole trajectory is influenced by you.

Even if one day this star goes out.

It turned into dark matter.

It became invisible.

It still affects my trajectory.

Your appearance changed my star orbit forever.

No matter where you are ...

I cried all the guests at the scene.

He himself said that when talking about these topics, he put things together, and the knowledge in his mind formed an increasingly complete structure, and he could feel that he was getting bigger and bigger.

Once my mother taught Gao, she said, "Life is not just the present, but also poetry and distance." ?

This sentence was nailed to Gao's heart and written into the lyrics when he grew up.

Many people ask Gao, what is in the distance?

In fact, he has already interpreted it himself: reading is to make himself a less tolerant person. What does "poetry and distance" mean? Is to make yourself broader. Reading is a process of expanding yourself.

Enrich yourself and make yourself broader, which was defined by Gao long ago.

Free and unrestrained with thorns

Being a researcher is to better explore the distance, but the life in front of you can't be boring.

Gao unusually accepted the fact that selfies have become a reality.

He said that he has always been a lively literary youth, but in recent years, social media has developed before being discovered by others, but he never thought that Yan value could become productivity.

"Why can only good-looking people take selfies and we can't take selfies?"

Because the appearance problem was ridiculed, he was very happy: "Since I started taking selfies, no one has scolded me. People think you made yourself like this. Why should I scold you? "

Finally, seriously analyze a truth: people can't be above themselves and will definitely scold you.

It seems that his interests have not changed for so many years.

One day, Gao in the university returned to the dormitory with great interest. "My buddy became Chen Shimei today!"

As a result, the brother in the upper bunk asked, "Who is Chen Shimei? In the textbooks of several grades? "

Gao later used the word "exaggeration" to describe his roommate's boredom.

Since then, this roommate who never reads extracurricular books has asked a high question every day. Many years later, he also attracted Gao, because of a phone call with his old classmates, he wrote "The Brother Sleeping in My Upper Bed".

Who slept with my brother?

Sleep in my lonely memories

The question you once asked me.

Nobody asks now.

In 2009, Yico Zeng, who was out of tune, was controversial when she participated in Super Girl. Judge Bao left angrily because he was in the top 20, leaving a sentence "She asked me to leave".

Gao, who was still in the United States at that time, received the song demo from the TV station, and immediately flew back to China to support the 19-year-old who "opposed" the package from a distance. When he was eliminated, Gao said, "Go back and have a good rest. I will start making an album next week. I will be your producer and I will support you to the end."

He said, "The controversy will always end, and only when it is moved will it take root."

Gao was moved. I also believe that my music can touch others.

"All the people who oppose Yico Zeng, who have written songs together for a lifetime, are not as good as Yico Zeng's two songs." After a pause, he added, "Let alone compare with me."

Some people say that after Gao wrote several campus folk songs in the 1990s, there were no bright works.

But his sensitivity and taste in music are still impressive.

Sa Dingding was the first singer in China to be invited by a Grammy. In 2007, her album "Life of Everything" was shortlisted for the "Best Music Album Award", and the title song was written by Gao.

Sa Dingding said that he was very grateful to Gao, because when no one was interested in this kind of music, he was the first to say "very good" and recruited many poets to help him out, so he personally stepped out and led to the later "life of all things".

He pays attention to obedience.

Gao said, if my money is only enough to do one thing, between traveling and buying a house, I will choose traveling.

When I was young, I went to a place and bought a car. When you are tired of playing, sell your car and go to the next city.

Help people play the piano, perform with people, play and sing everywhere, and go to Holland, Spain and Denmark. ...

In his opinion, he should be free about his sexual orientation.

He set himself a target of how much money he earns every year. When the target is completed, he will do what he likes in the rest of the time.

Both infatuated and heartless

As someone else's child, Gao is also puppy love. I broke up with my girlfriend at that time when I was a freshman.

The girl gave him a diary, and the last entry in the diary was a suicide note, which said, "I want to go to every park we dated first."

I was so scared that I thought something had happened to this girl. The whole school teachers went to those parks separately, but they couldn't find the girl.

When Gao came home, she told her mother that the girl had committed suicide.

Mother said, "Bullshit! If she dies for you, I will die for you. "

The girl didn't kill herself. She just stayed at home that day.

Later, he fell in love with a little girl when he was wandering in Xiamen and doing rock and roll. "Holding hands, kissing at the temperature of 10 minutes 4 1 Celsius in the deep alley of the East Community where the night is as cool as water."

Gao is the first wife.

On the evening of July 3rd, Gao drove in the street and met him at the gate of university of international business and economics. Gao fell in love with her at first sight, just like all the conventional stories about talented people and beautiful women.

His proposal is very striking.

Music critic Li Wan recalled in the article "Two Highs":

Once we had dinner together and sat next to a reporter. Gao held () in one hand and showed me the wound on his wrist in the other, which was obviously very exciting. These marks were burned with cigarette butts again and again when Gao proposed. The third time, Huan Zi agreed.

They have only known each other and been married for four months. Three years later, the two parted ways.

The pursuit of "freedom" makes Gao seem to have no such quality as "dedication". If you love it, it will be vigorous. If you don't love it, draw a sword and cut off the water, make a clean break.

The second time I got married, it was in Los Angeles. Gao, who is visiting, suddenly proposed to him. That night, the two went to the city hall to get the certificate.

Marriage in the United States needs witnesses, and the two and another couple who came to get married became witnesses to each other. In this way, I married Gao, who was 19 years older than myself, and they had a daughter.

Married in 2007, divorced on 20 13. High love has not experienced the itch of seven years.

After the divorce, Xu Canjin compared himself to a "person who recovered from a serious illness and was reborn after death". "Everything was caught off guard, and I was suddenly thrown into the downpour from the fairy tale world, and I was soaked to the skin."

Later, she explained that this feeling was not because she was afraid of ridicule and inquiry from others, but because she could not accept the failure of marriage in her heart.

She is still grateful for what Gao has brought her.

"When I met Song, I was full of enthusiasm and tried my best to love. He taught me about the world and opened many windows for me. "

After a peaceful breakup, their lives were different.

The mind is not only far away

In the first season of "The Story of Diaosi", a Tsinghua doctoral student named liangzhi stepped onto the stage of auditions.

He said that he studied law, master of finance and doctor of journalism, and hoped that his tutor would give him some advice on what kind of job to look for in the future.

As a mentor, Gao was angered on the spot. He said that a famous student has no idea about the country and society, and he is devoted to his work and doesn't care about the country's pattern. He even said bluntly, "A famous student came here and asked us what job you should look for? Do you think you deserve more than ten years' education in Tsinghua? " ?

In the eyes of Gao, a prestigious school is "a heavy weapon for the country." Liangzhi got a graduate diploma, but he didn't reach the model that graduates from famous universities care about the world.

The choice of Tsinghua students should be "thinking about the world and transforming the country", which is a high insistence.

Although he also called himself a "player", he did not blindly devote himself to popular entertainment programs, but started a cultural talk show.

Others said that this kind of program would not be popular, but he insisted on doing it, saying that he hoped to make everyone's work and life more interesting through his own efforts.

"In the Internet age, you struggle for your ideals and have no time to study. Then let me read it to you. You have no time to chat. I'll chat for you. "

Not only that, in addition to variety shows, he also served as the "chairman of entertainment strategy" and worked as a library in an Internet company. Teenagers began to enter the industry, wandering in various fields of music, film, television, publishing, internet and content industry. "I have great feelings for this industry. Even if I spend a lot of energy, I think it is worthwhile. "

In Gao's view, this industry should be better, more progressive, more progressive and more respected. "It is a very happy thing for Qi Xin to work together to promote the progress of this society, this country and this world."

As he said in Xiao Shuo, the world is not a lie, and the world is far away.

A chicken feather may never really oppose poetry and distance, just like the moon and sixpence. Bend down to pick up pennies, you can look up at the moon, and you can also consider taking care of others when you are alone.

Gao is neither a god nor a man. His pen name "short and tight" was ridiculed by countless netizens as: short stature, big face, tight clothes, and selfies are even more terrible.

However, some people say that if the appearance of Gao is only 60 points, then the value of the extremely romantic poetic world in his heart is worthy of 120 points.

I have to say that even if you can refuse the face value, you can't refuse the high talent. It proves that there are many beautiful skins, but interesting souls are hard to find.

Appreciate a person, don't need too many reasons, because it's interesting, so like it, that's all, but it's enough.
