1977: It all started with a wrong love

Chapter 86 Enlightenment
This statement shocked the world!

“Poverty is not socialism.”

“Socialism aims to eradicate poverty.”

No one expected it.

Student Lu suddenly made such a shocking statement on the stage.

Originally, I just heard classmate Lu talk a lot, and he seemed to be criticizing the idea that "the poorer the more glorious".

Everyone was inexplicably frightened.

It is true that there is nothing wrong with discussing such remarks in private.

But it was publicly thrown out in university classrooms.

Then the nature will change completely!
What the hell is this 'the poorer the more glorious' thing? That's a complete fallacy.

Of course, this is also the propaganda tone that had to be set under the special background of the times.

But who would really believe that being poor is glorious?

That brain is definitely the result of being kicked by a donkey too many times.

There are some things that cannot be brought up on the table and boasted about.

However, Lu Yifan talked about these things in public, at the first open class of Yanqing Second School. What's the difference between this and running to the edge of a cliff to dance?

but……

When Mr. Lu then made two more statements:

——Poverty is not socialism!
——Socialism aims to eliminate poverty!

The words are very simple and easy to understand.

But it clearly expresses people's expectations and hopes for the future modernization of the motherland.

That’s really great to say!
“Poverty is not socialism, what a brilliant statement!
That’s right, no matter which dynasty or which social system, when the founders created it, who would have thought in their hearts that poverty should be listed as the ultimate pursuit of the system? "

Professor Jin exclaimed repeatedly, stroking his long beard, and nodded and shook his head continuously.

It can be seen that this time he was really impressed by Lu Yifan's brilliant judgment.

I am not qualified to be such a wise man's teacher!
Principal Zhou, Principal Liu and other school leaders were also extremely emotional at this moment.

They were simply full of admiration.

What kind of shocking words does this kid have hidden in his mind? !

He was able to make such an accurate and remarkable statement as “Poverty is not socialism, socialism aims to eliminate poverty”.

This shows what? !

This shows that in the field of literature, history, philosophy and theory, Mr. Lu's level of thinking has far surpassed them, the group of teachers, by thousands of miles.

Below the stage, thousands of teachers and students were like the boiling water in the pot.

They discussed enthusiastically, and for the first time in their lives, they had a better understanding of the future of society. It was like the sun shining through the clouds, and the truth of the world suddenly appeared before everyone.

"In the past, there were often lazy people in the village who were unwilling to work and would always use the so-called 'the poorer the more glorious' as an excuse. They would always blame others for those who worked hard and actively improved their family's living conditions..."

"Damn it!"

"It's really abominable!"

"If only we could understand what Mr. Lu said earlier..."

Among the students in the audience.

Suddenly, some students could no longer contain their excitement and burst into tears.

Upon asking, I found out that the student had a close relative in his hometown village who had improved his life because of hard work, but was taken advantage of by the lazy and idle people in the village to make excuses for the old society.

As a result, the loved one could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide by jumping into the river.

On the contrary, those lazy and second-rate people who "dare to expose the scum" are actually decorated with red flowers.

"It is true that our country is very poor right now!"

"But the current poverty and hardship have historical roots. It's not because our generation is not enterprising, nor is it because our country and our people are born inferior to those foreign devils who know how to build society better!"

"The Chinese civilization has a history of 5,000 years.
Our ancestors, in more than 90% of the historical timeline, looking around the world, only China was known as the Celestial Empire.

During our glorious historical period, our ancestors almost always stood at the top of the world.

Only in modern times has mankind's new industrial civilization begun to develop by leaps and bounds. However, our modern feudal emperors still focused on the supreme interests of their imperial power, did not think of proactive progress, and blindly closed the country in an attempt to cut themselves off from the world.

The result was the most humiliating and painful historical mark for the Chinese people in the past hundred years..." "The Qing government was incompetent. Such a huge empire was the richest country in the world in terms of GDP, but it gradually degenerated into a super fat sheep that was eaten by various foreign devils on the table.

In just the two Opium Wars, the incompetent Qing government paid as much as 4400 million taels of silver in war reparations to the Great Yin Empire! "

"In the following decades and nearly a hundred years, the incompetent Qing government suffered from bombing, siege, invasion and colonization by the Japanese, Western and Eight-Nation Alliances, and the powerful ships and guns of various foreign devils. The total amount of war reparations that had to be paid eventually reached 12.44 billion taels of silver."

"12.44 billion taels of silver!"

"What does that mean? Converted into today's currency, that's 200 trillion RMB!"

"And these astronomical war reparations, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, had actually been forced to pay a huge amount of 8.3 million taels of silver."

"Including the famous Tsinghua University in Beijing where we are studying now, it was all built by foreigners using our own war reparations. The various international study abroad funds that Tsinghua University has overseas also came from these war reparations. It's not that the foreigners are kind-hearted and willing to help our country with university education."

"The reason why our country is so poor now is that we were completely plundered by the great powers. Our wealth was almost completely taken away. In addition, we have been devastated by various wars for more than a hundred years, and we have never had the opportunity to rest and recuperate with the people. This is the root cause of our current poverty!"

"But in the face of all this, what should we do? What else can we do?"

"The only way is to grit our teeth, strive for self-improvement, and rebuild China!"

"Only by using our hard-working hands can we create a new myth of wealth!"

"Our country is truly starting from scratch on top of a ruin. We are completely poor and blank, and under the joint blockade of the entire European and American West, we have to carry out the four modernizations..."

"So, what does it mean to have the ability to think independently?"

"If someone were to compare our country's poverty with that of Bangli, Japan, or even our unliberated territories, Longwa Island and Xiangjiang City, with these places that started economic development and construction at almost the same time after World War II, what conclusion would they draw?"

"Will people without brains, or with a missing string in their brains, immediately come to the conclusion that our country, which is engaged in social sciences, is not as capable of development and construction as those engaged in capitalism, and that our social sciences are born to be poor?"

Huh? !

I heard what Mr. Lu said on the stage.

People with sharp reactions could immediately sense the deeper meaning behind it.

Yup!

If it weren’t for the reminder from what Mr. Lu said.

If someone really suddenly told them that the so-called Tokyo University is not as good as Bangli, Japan, or even Longwa Island or Hong Kong City, then why is Tokyo not as rich as these places and not as fast-developing as them in the same period of development and after World War II?

Is it true that people who work in the social sciences department are destined to be poor and will never be able to make it as far as the finance department?

What does it mean to have the ability to think independently?
God!

If everyone, from the very beginning, really believed in Professor Jin's method, the so-called independent thinking ability is to start from being a nitpicker, dare to go against the mainstream authority, and dare to deny the mainstream voice...

I really believe in this kind of nonsense!

Is the construction of the social system of the University of Tokyo ultimately a dead end?!

The only way out is through Western capitalism?

A conclusion like this, which is almost in front of us, should not be regarded as the truth...

Could it be that this is what Professor Jin is guiding everyone to finally realize, the so-called social cognition besides independent thinking ability? !
Oh my god oh my god!!!

Now let’s combine this with what Mr. Lu said.

The result is clearer and more accurate!
If a person's so-called independent thinking ability, which he pursues, goes astray from the very beginning and argues for the sake of arguing, he will develop a distorted cognition of thinking independently for the sake of thinking independently.

Wouldn't it be too easy to conclude that the social science department at Tokyo University is a dead end and will never catch up with the capital departments?
Mr. Lu, you are indeed worthy of being a super joint school student...

He is truly putting what he has learned into practice, teaching everyone to master the true ability to think independently, rather than letting everyone just try it out superficially and start by becoming a nitpicker...

There is a lot of content in this open class.

Soon, the news spread.

Needless to say, how this incident caused a more far-reaching impact among the teachers and students of Yanqing Second School.

In short, the super joint school student Lu crushed the famous old professor in the open class, making Professor Jin, who has always prided himself on being a top expert in the fields of literature, history, philosophy and speculation, feel extremely ashamed after the class and asked the school to stop teaching and taking students and concentrate on research in literature and history. This incident really hurt the sensitive nerves of his colleagues from other major universities.

Furthermore, the two brilliant conclusions that Lu Yifan summarized on poverty and community construction spread rapidly across the country like a virus.

Haizili.

After hearing Lu Yifan's two brilliant remarks.

In that invisible state, the laughter was obviously much more hearty than usual.

Really, these words hit the nail on the head.
