85. Chapter 85 Reality, poetry and distance(2/2)
"If there is anything special, it is that the name 'genius' is beginning to lose popularity. When I was a student, whether I had excellent academic performance, handsome basketball, good football, or cool guitar playing and singing, it was enough to attract the attention of the world.
The focus. After entering the society, everything changed. The social atmosphere began to blindly pursue success, and basically did not value unrealized potential and intelligence. It only focused on results. At most, it seemed to be eager for quick success and quick benefits. What made me most uncomfortable was,
The definition of success is limited to being rich, famous and powerful..."
"The criteria for judging have changed."
Wu Chan concluded and wanted to explain a few words, but Jin Shang did not stop and continued:
"Everyone is telling me that 'only by enduring hardship can you become the best at others', and striving to become 'the best at others' is the only way to succeed. There is nothing wrong with this kind of value at first glance, but as the only measurement standard, it is really
It’s so suffocating. The education I received tells me that all people are born equal and no one is born noble, but society urges me to work hard to be a ‘superior person’. It’s really a bit funny...”
School students and people in society have completely different positions. They have experienced it once in the past life, and they will experience it again in this life, and they will also feel deeply.
"Reality and ideals are a bit torn apart. The world is not perfect, so we need everyone to work together..."
Wu Chan advised tactfully, and Jin Shang naturally would not be really cynical and talk endlessly.
"I admit that there are differences between people, but this gap is too uncomfortable. I don't know when I will forget my original intention and become a common person among all living beings. Now, I just want to take care of myself while my blood is still cold.
While your anger is still there, do something that you can do. Now that I am still young, I can say a few nonsense words, which are just young and frivolous nonsense, and can be forgiven. Let's talk about the future... Let's talk about the future, let's do it, let's see.
And cherish it.”
"So...that's why there are "Men Should Be Self-Strengthening" and "The First Dream"? Young people today are really scary. At that time, we were not so crazy. We could write songs and lyrics, recite poems, and dare to start a business for our ideals.
…”
After sighing with emotion, Wu Chan, who didn't expect Jin Shang to have any answer, turned his attention to the audience.
"Having said so much, I believe everyone has gotten to know the two young talents. At the end of the day, everyone here can freely ask questions to the two guests..."
Soon, the camera turned and focused on the audience stand on the other side. Most of them were tool workers, and a few were real experts who were invited. Before recording, Jin Shang was specifically warned to be cautious in his answers and respectful in his attitude.
