It's not that education is useless. Education is certainly useful, but education is not everything. The world is not rewarded by writing correct answers on test papers. Zhang Xiaoyong didn't even reach the age of 18 when he took the college entrance examination, that is to say, he was admitted to Tsinghua University with excellent results and near full marks when he was 17. My major is biology, and the full name is biological science and technology. Most of this work is in the laboratory. Either I graduated and went to a big enterprise to do research and development, or I continued to study until my doctor took the academic route to do research in the laboratory. Zhang Xiaoyong chose the former. He entered a joint venture multinational enterprise, and the target position is of course research and development. Strangely, he was transferred to the customer service department after being recruited, and he couldn't go to the corresponding post after waiting for a while. It happened that at this time, the family called to say that his father was in poor health, and Zhang Xiaoyong left the big city and went back to school.
At that time, I thought it was better to find a job at home, but in fact, the smaller the place, the more serious the human society, and Zhang Xiaoyong didn't know anyone at home. The most important thing is that there is really nothing that Tsinghua students can't do in a small county. Since there is no such high technical content, it is not too much to ask someone with such a high degree to come back, so I couldn't find a suitable job at that time. In order not to look too old, Zhang Xiaoyong went to the post of security guard. Later, a reporter interviewed him. He didn't show much resentment. He just said that he had made a choice between dream and reality. He can't leave his family. Although life is a little bitter now, it is good to have his parents around to take care of him.
In fact, this result is caused by Zhang Xiaoyong being an ordinary person with no background, which is the embarrassing situation of the social employment market in China today. The positions that really need elites are extremely short of people, but the lower-level positions are saturated, and there are still a number of middle-level positions that can't get up. Let those with high academic qualifications go and those who are unwilling to go, so there will be no work efficiency without corresponding higher education. In fact, the German practice of separating higher education from vocational education is quite suitable for learning, and now China has begun to reflect.
Besides, even if Zhang Xiaoyong becomes a security guard, the knowledge he has learned is by no means useless. Too utilitarian. Although the ultimate goal of many people learning knowledge is to make money, learning itself is an opportunity to improve themselves. If Zhang Xiaoyong is a security guard when he grows up, he will study with him but find a security guard job in his hometown to take care of his parents, and his ideological realm will be completely different. what do you think?
