"The Paris Peace Conference has come to an end." Tang Qianming, who had just returned to Beijing, said to Yang Shuoming, acting Minister of the Navy, "This peace negotiation not only succeeded in annulling the treaty, but also won 100 million pounds in compensation, which is really an unprecedented diplomatic victory." ”

"With all the shackles gone, and with the start-up capital, my China can stride forward from now on." Of course, Yang Shuoming knew why he was so excited about the 100 million pounds in compensation, and said with a smile.

The total amount of German reparations that China won at the Paris Peace Conference was 100 million pounds, which was more than the sum of all the foreign reparations paid by China in the late Qing Dynasty, and such a huge amount of money would have a tremendous effect on China's future development. In fact, not only Tang Qianming was excited, but also from the government officials to the ordinary people of Limin, many people were so excited that they couldn't sleep now.

The reason why Japan was able to succeed was not unrelated to the huge amount of reparations it received from China for its victory in the First Sino-Japanese War. And now, Zhong Kuang will have the opportunity to write the same myth. "In fact, this diplomatic victory can be achieved this time, and it has nothing to do with you, Yang Hanzhi." Tang Qianming looked at Yang Shuoming and said, "I heard that before Gu Shaochuan went to Paris, he didn't go to the presidential palace, and he went to the mansion to ask for advice." 4 "There was no discussion of advice, but only an exchange of views on some issues. Yang Shuoming didn't want to reveal his conversation with Gu Luojun, so he just smiled slightly and replied vaguely.

"In fact, if it weren't for you, Yang Hanzhi raised a large amount of money from overseas to return to China, and reconciled with the southern provinces to deal with it, I'm afraid that we won't be able to deal with these major wars at all, and we won't be able to deal with the government, and the country will fall into division." Tang Qianming looked at Yang Shuoming and said.

Yang Shuoming listened to Tang Qianming's words, and still smiled faintly, but his eyes stayed on Tang Qianming's face, as if he was waiting for him to continue.

"I've heard that you, the acting secretary of the Navy, are stepping down." Tang Qianming said, "Is it true? ”

Yang Shuoming immediately understood the intention of Tang Qianming's question, and couldn't help but smile.

"It's true." Yang Shuoming nodded, "When the new president is elected and the new prime minister forms a cabinet, my agent will come to an end." ”

"I thought you could 'straighten' with the great merit of reviving the navy." Tang Qianming's words couldn't hide the disappointment and regret.

"Anyway, I'm not from the navy, this navy minister is actually quite tired, and it's good to abdicate and let Xian." Yang Shuoming said with a smile, "At present, the country's various Wei!

The degree is in its infancy, and if you want to get on the right track, the price is worth it. ”

"Except for you, who can build a navy stronger than the Japanese Navy for us in such a short period of time?" Tang Qianming said unwillingly.

"But that's also a disturbing place." Yang Shuoming said lightly.

Hearing Yang Shuoming's words, Tang Qianming immediately understood, and a strange bright color flashed in his eyes.

"A few days ago, a congressman proposed that the post of border defense supervisor is not a state-specific position, but a temporary subordinate power, but now the power is too great, and he is actually the commander of the navy and army, while in the democratic political system of the western country, the president is the supreme military chief of a country, and the border defense supervisor is the military head of the country outside the president, and it should not be set up for a long time, and should be abolished. ”

Yang Shuoming said, "I think what he said makes a lot of sense.

He has already intended to resign and asked the Government to abolish the post of Border Inspectorate. ”

"You really dare to be the first in the world." Tang Qianming looked at Yang Shuoming and said, "Someone like you who doesn't love power, with the size of our 1r China, I really can't pick out the second one." ”

"If the post of border inspector is not removed for a long time, the president will be in vain, and if the post of border inspector is held by a good person, if it falls into the hands of a bad person, it is very easy to create a situation of military dictatorship in China. [High-quality update]" Yang Shuoming smiled and said, "I'd rather not have this position than let it ruin the democratic constitutional process of Zhongkuang." ”

, Tang Qianming listened to Yang Shuoming's words, and couldn't help but stand up.

"Tang Mou was a former officer of my navy, and he trained Hanzhi for ~ all the people of the world." Tang Qianming said, bowing deeply to Yang Shuoming.

Yang Shuoming smiled and got up to return the salute, but didn't say anything more.

At this time, Tang Qianming was completely impressed by Yang Shuoming's mind and lesson strategy, he didn't know that the reason why Yang Shuoming made such a choice was entirely because he was a "descendant" and had seen the harm brought about by the "dualization of the head of state and military and government" in China in the future! ,

"If the post of border inspector is abolished, what does Hanzhi plan to do after handing over the power?" Tang Qianming asked.

"Aren't there still two titles of superintendent?" Yang Shuoming laughed, and replied, "There are actually a lot of things to do, and if possible, I am quite interested in education." ”

, Tang Qianming looked at Yang Shuoming with an unbelievable gaze, he even thought that Yang Shuoming was joking with him, but he looked at the lice Yang Shuoming's solemn appearance was not like a joke, and his face was puzzled.

"I have a lecture on education at the Women's Normal University this afternoon, if you are interested, you can listen to it." Yang Ximing said.

"I'll go." Tang Qianming said.

In the afternoon, Tang Qianming came to Beijing Women's Normal University early, wearing a straight naval uniform, he stubbled a lot of curious and unfamiliar eyes of female students on campus, Tang Qianming felt the vigilance in the eyes of students and faculty members, and he tried his best to hold a friendly smile to everyone who made a "salute" to him.

Although the large-scale student protests in China have subsided with the end of the Paris Peace Conference, Tang Qianming can still feel that the atmosphere of the student movement has not completely disappeared at the Women's Normal University, where the "September 28 tragedy" occurred.

Tang Qianming walked quickly to the teaching building, and handed his invitation towel to a faculty member in charge of reception, ~ The other party recognized Qiqif's naval uniform, smiled kindly at him, and put him in a large lecture hall.

At this time, there was still a while before the start of class, and the female college students were sitting in groups with their books in pairs, although they saw a Navy soldier sitting in the auditorium, but the students did not pay too much attention, some of them opened their books and read the books, and some of them whispered to each other about the upcoming speeches for a while.

"Have you heard General Xiao Yang's last speech at Yenching University? It is said that the seats were full, and many professors came......"

"I heard that he is a person with a great sense of humor...... "Yes, he also spoke once at Peking University, and it can be said that the pomp and circumstance are unprecedented."

"However, I heard that he was disgusted with social favoritism and Bolshevik ideas......"

"He's a warlord, haven't you heard of his nickname? It's called 'high-tech warlords'. ”

"Isn't it? I don't think he's the same as those tyrannical warlords......"

"He is not a warlord, a warlord would not advocate science, democracy and freedom so much, I think his thoughts are actually the same as ours..." You like him so much, it's not that you have a crush on him, haha......"

"Yes, I'd rather be a general's concubine than a peaceful wife......"

"Nasty! You ......"

Tang Qianming also wanted to hear them continue to talk about Yang Shuoming, and the laughter of the female students drowned out the words behind it, and there were more and more students on this day, and after a while, the staircase classroom suddenly became quiet.

, Yang Shuoming's figure appeared in front of the pulpit.

At this time, Yang Shuoming was dressed in Hanfu casual clothes, looking gentle and elegant, he smiled and greeted several professors and teachers, a beautiful and eye-catching female teacher introduced Yang Shuoming to everyone, and the students welcomed him with warm applause, after this brief welcome ceremony, Yang Shuoming's speech began.

"Today, I would like to discuss with you the topic of education that fosters independent thinking."

"Before getting to the point, I'll talk about a fairy tale that everyone is familiar with, just this morning, there was a drama in the auditorium that this fairy tale was turned into a drama - I think you already know which fairy tale it is, and some students have already said it, yes, it's "The Little Match Girl".

"The Little Match Girl is a famous fairy tale by the famous Danish fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen, published in 1846.

It mainly tells the story of a little match girl who froze to death on the street on Christmas Eve when the rich had a happy family and raised a glass to celebrate. /’

The girl died, but with a smile on her lips, and the beautiful fantasy of lighting a match formed a fresh contrast with her starving and cold real life. Through this fairy tale, Andersen expressed his deep sympathy for the tragic plight of the poor people and his dissatisfaction with the society at that time. ”

"Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, 'The Little Match Girl' has been an important text in the sixth-grade textbook for primary school students, and many primary school Chinese teachers have emphasized in their classrooms that it can be a 'basic idea' and is Andersen's 'bloody and tearful indictment' of capitalist society. It is both an accusation and a tearful accusation, so for the capitalist society, the subject of the accusation, according to Mark Xi's words, "the weapon of criticism cannot replace the criticism of weapons".

One by one, there was only revolution. ”

"But I would like to ask you today, is the conclusion that 'Revolution 7 is the result of independent thinking?' If I 1r think about this independently, can I come up with another theory? ”

There is no doubt that "The Little Match Girl" is indeed Andersen's tearful work. The world is indeed a mirror of the injustice of the world. But it seems to me that ~ what Andersen wants to evoke is not hatred and revolution, but sympathy and Kuangjia humanism. ”

"For a nation, for a country, humanitarianism is an indispensable education. Hans Christian Andersen understood this. Otherwise, he would not have written "The Little Girl Who Sells Matches" and so many popular works. ”

"A person's mind is not born with the idea of humanism as the highest principle of human nature, or the basic feelings of adults. As a human being, there is a need for humanitarian education. ”

So, speaking of which, I would like to ask, who is "The Little Match Girl" for? You can also answer that as a fairy tale, of course, it was first written for children, but I would say that it was definitely not written first for little girls who sold fireworks. ”

"The little girls who sell matches can't afford a book of fairy tales from Hans Christian Andersen."

Actually, "The Little Match Girl BJ" was written for the little girl who didn't have to huddle in the snow on New Year's Eve, and she was about to freeze and scream at the match seller in a trembling voice. In fact, it is written for people who are not very poor, and even little girls from rich families. Often, the little girls of these families would lie on the soft bed at night and sit by the warm fire and listen to their parents or maids or housemaids read to them "The Little Match Girl". Tears flowed from their eyes, which means that there will be one more compassionate and kind mother in the world. And mothers, they are the best at sowing their compassion and kindness in the hearts of their strong sons. In this way, generation after generation, after a hundred years, everyone thinks about it, what kind of results will it be? ”

"This may be the reason why all mankind is grateful to Hans Christian Andersen."

"When culture loses its conscience and the collective turns its back on the classes and people who are supposed to be sympathetic to it, Xi [like] a country turns its back on the purpose of peace and beauty. The suppression of cultural conscience is the suppression of the conscience of the whole society. And the people who can't even get the sympathy of culture are the most unfortunate people. ”

"As far as I know, the cultural significance of the cultures of economically developed countries has been embodied in two particularly important aspects: enlightening the poor and educating the rich; Thus, the culture of the Kuang family. I think that's something bigger than revolution. ”

"Culture certainly has more than just these two aspects. However, if Jing has never played the above two roles well, the quality of its culture, no matter how it is improved to comment, is suspicious. ”

"A few days ago, everyone was celebrating the 'victory in the public l', we Chinese like to celebrate, and the primary purpose of the celebration day is usually to look back on the past, especially to commemorate those who have received special honors for the development of cultural life. This friendly commemoration of our predecessors should never be overlooked, especially since it recalls the great events of the past and inspires the fearless participation of today's good people. But this must be done by a man who has been intimately connected to the land in his youth, and who is familiar with its past, and not by a man who wanders around like a beggar, and who has accumulated experience in all sorts of countries. ”

"Talking about the issue of linkages with educational matters. I'm not much of an authority. For wise and well-meaning people from ancient times to the present have discussed the question of education, and have repeatedly and clearly expressed their views on these blind questions. As a half-layman in the field of education, where does my courage to articulate ideas that have no basis other than personal experience and personal convictions come from?

If this were really a scientific question, people might be silent about these considerations. ”

"However, for active people, the situation is different. The knowledge of truth alone is not enough here. On the contrary, if knowledge is not to be abandoned, it must be continuously updated by constant efforts. It is like a jade statue erected in the desert, and it is under the threat of being buried by quicksand at any time. The hand of service must work constantly so that the jade will always shine in the sun. My hands are also among the hands that serve jade. ”,

"Schooling has always been the most important way to pass on traditional wealth from one generation to the next. Today this is more important than before, because the family has been weakened as a carrier of tradition and education through the modern development of economic life. As a result, the continuity and health of human society is more dependent than ever on schools. ”

"There are a lot of times when people see schools as just a tool to pass on as much knowledge as possible to the growing generation.

But this is not right. Knowledge is dead, but school is serving the inactive. It should develop in young people the qualities and abilities that are well placed on the public good. But that doesn't mean; 7. Annihilation of individuality, and the use of the individual as a mere instrument of asociety, like a bee or an ant. For a society made up of standardized individuals without individual ingenuity and individual goals will be a pitiful society with no possibility of development. Rather, the goal of the school must be to produce individuals who can act and think independently, and who view service to society as the highest aspect of life. ”

But how can we achieve this ideal? Is it through moral preaching? Definitely not. Criticism is, and will remain, an empty voice, and the road to destruction has always been accompanied by flashy rhetoric about ideals. But personality is not formed by what is heard, but by the power of labor [action]. ”

Therefore, the most important means of education is to motivate primary school children to take action. This applies to elementary school students learning to write for the first time, to their doctoral dissertation at university, or to memorizing a poem, composing a song, interpreting or translating an article, solving a math problem, or playing sports. ~”

But behind every achievement there is a driving force that underpins it, and that drive is in turn strengthened and nourished by the success of the scattered business in which it is engaged. Here there are the biggest differences, and these differences are crucial to the educational value of the school. The same work, whose origins may be attributed to the fear of coercion, the ambition of the pursuit of power and fame, the diligent is the hobby, interest, and demand for truth and understanding of the object, and therefore the sacred curiosity that every healthy child has, but which is weakened very early. The educational impact of the same work on a pupil can vary greatly, depending on whether the cause of the work is fear of injury, egoistic feelings, or joy and satisfaction. The management of the school and the attitude of the teachers are decisive in shaping the psychological foundation of the pupils, and as we often say, the teachers are the creators of the souls of the pupils, the engineers. ”
