Reborn 92's Business Tycoon - Chapter 609: The Hanging Expert
Chapter 609: Chapter 609: The Hanging Expert
Feng Yiping’s proposal was still respected by the TV station.
He now also has the internationally renowned hat of the youngest business management expert on his head, and in terms of international popularity, it is much louder than the four guests invited today.
Moreover, his status as a successful businessman will certainly add to the weight of his words. Capital is also a form of power! Have you not seen that no matter which TV station the richest men of later generations go to, they are always accompanied by the station manager and all the famous talk show hosts under his command?
The final adjustment resulted in the host sitting in the middle, with the guests sitting opposite them.
The famous talk show host is the famous talk show host. After the opening introduction, he teased, ‘First of all, I must say that, Yiping, when you were interviewed in the capital last time, you made my fellow hosts and many of the audience members in the audience cry. Today, you have to take it easy, it’s still the middle of the month, right!
Also, the person who interviewed you last time was a lady, and even when she cried, she was still very charming. If you make a man like me cry, then I really won’t know what to do,’
Humour is the safest way to go, and self-deprecation is very effective.
Feng Yiping raised his hand, ‘Can I say a few words?’
‘Absolutely, and I don’t need to prepare a handkerchief,’ said Cao Mingzui.
‘Actually, I was also very surprised,’ Feng Yiping said. “I couldn’t understand why my words had such a deep impact on so many people. Looking back, those days, whether they were sweet or bitter, light or heavy, are all very beautiful. So, at the time, I really couldn’t understand it,’
‘Do you understand it now?” Mingzui asked.
‘I sort of understand it now, because I experienced the same thing later,’ Feng Yiping said. “I also watched an interview with a celebrity, talking about the various saddening efforts before he became famous. He kept smiling and making self-deprecating jokes, but when I listened, my eyes really did well up with tears,’
he said, and this was true. But it wasn’t now, it was later, when he watched an interview with Huang Bo, who was already known at the time as the “2-billion emperor’.
‘It was mainly the words of classmate Yiping that resonated with everyone there. As the person involved, he had already transcended the past and drawn a lot of nourishment from it, so he appeared carefree, but the audience was different.
This is actually also an attitude towards life. Some people, when they encounter such things, will only bemoan their fate, while others, when there is no way to change the situation they face, will use the suffering as a tempering process,’
said an expert sitting opposite, who is always good at making all kinds of summaries and exaggerations.
‘Well, let’s move on to the first topic of the day. The two people here, both born in the 1980s, are both very talented in writing, and the novels they have published have sold more than 2 million copies each.
However, Han has a serious bias towards certain subjects, with most of his homework being A+ work. At one point, he was considered a problem child by the education sector and many parents, and he has now dropped out of school.
As for Feng, his grades were relatively balanced. In the college entrance exam, he was the top scorer in the liberal arts in his province. He is everyone’s ideal good guy and is still receiving higher education at school.
What do the guests think of these two?’
This question is quite harsh. Feng Yiping feels a bit unfair for Han, but he can’t honestly say that he cheated.
The two experts who supported Han Han naturally attacked the current education system, saying that it was spoon-feeding and focused only on results, stifling the talents of many children in some areas.
Those who supported Feng Yiping naturally had an easy time, simply saying the same thing as in the article in the capital newspaper last time: it is possible to achieve good results in the current education system while also improving one’s talents. The result is here, which shows that the main problem is not the education system, but the individual.
Han looked at him, his face still smiling, but his fists clenching tighter and tighter. Feng couldn’t help but want to give him a hand. ‘Statistically speaking, the conclusions drawn based on just a somewhat special sample like the two of us are not actually universal,’
which was a very euphemistic way of saying it, and to be blunt, these conclusions are actually invalid, so there’s nothing to argue about.
In theory, he was saying this to help Han’s side, but someone was not appreciative. An expert on Han’s side, a middle-aged woman, Feng Yiping did not remember her title, and challenged Feng Yiping.
‘I appreciate you, Feng, for being able to achieve good results in the exam-oriented education while also excelling in areas you are good at.
I just want to ask you a question. Our time is limited. You spend a lot of time on other homework, and definitely less time improving your writing skills. In fact, you are wasting your talent for writing. For example, how much time have you spent reading world classics this year?
‘If Journey to the West counts, I still spent quite a lot of time on it,’ Feng Yiping said.
There was laughter in the audience.
The female expert shook her head. ‘What I’m talking about are mainly foreign masterpieces. If you read a few seriously every year, it will improve your writing skills imperceptibly.’
‘I want to clarify that when I said Journey to the West just now, I wasn’t talking about the TV series, but the novel,’ Feng Yiping said. ‘Besides, to each his own. I haven’t read many of those foreign masterpieces, and when I do read them, I always find them dry. It’s mainly their narratives that are hard to resonate with me.
It’s not like Journey to the West, where you can casually flip through the pages in your spare time, not reading the story but just the sentences describing the scenery and people. It feels like a cool spring breeze on a hot summer’s day, and the whole person feels very comfortable.
It’s like, I won’t deny that some operas are very beautiful, but I still prefer Kunqu, because there are cultural genes in it that resonate with me.
Our country, both in the past and present, has produced many outstanding works, so when I have time, I’ll read them first.’
Applause broke out from the audience.
It seems that there are quite a few people who resent those experts who have elevated foreign masterpieces too highly.
The expert, seeing that he had fallen behind, of course was not satisfied, but Cao Mingzui’s ability to control the situation was very strong. ‘I think Yiping is right. Just the examples of these two people don’t prove anything. No matter which way you look at it, there is nothing wrong with Yiping’s side. What do you all think about Han’s decision to drop out of school and not pursue higher education?’
‘Han’s decision to drop out of school was actually forced upon him, because the current education system does not give children like him the opportunity to receive higher education,’ said the female expert.
Han then spoke his mind, ‘It’s mainly because I personally don’t have much desire to pursue higher education.’
Who says he’s rebellious? In this situation, his words were politically correct.
The middle-aged female expert was suddenly a little depressed. Why was she being targeted by both sides?
Another expert spoke up, ‘Our society is very tolerant nowadays, so she can also accept people like Han who don’t pursue higher education. However, as a public figure with influence, I feel that Han’s actions have a negative impact, and it’s not right to be too free.’
The words of experts are always like this. They seem to make a lot of sense, but when you look at them closely, they are actually far-fetched. More and more people feel that it is not cost-effective to receive higher education, so they don’t want to pursue further studies. Such things are only related to Han’s ‘too free’ choice by a maximum of one cent.
Feng Yiping couldn’t help itchy again. ‘I remember Kant saying that freedom doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want,’
Han continued, ‘but it teaches you that you can do nothing if you don’t want to.’
The expert was speechless. Yes, it is indeed someone else’s freedom to accept or not accept higher education.
However, something about this just doesn’t seem right. It feels like those two young people are playing against the experts like a well-oiled machine.
One expert fell, and the other expert immediately took over, ‘I think our society is too tolerant, which is why some people are so enthusiastic about novels that are different from mainstream literature and ignore the beautiful and bright things in the world, focusing instead on the dark and cruel side of things.’
Han must speak up on this matter. ‘I write about this because I care about real life and people’s livelihoods,’
Feng Yiping added, ‘It’s a very simple truth. When we depict evil, we are calling out for the good, looking up to the light in the darkness.’
This is indeed a very simple truth, so this is a very stupid question.
The third expert vomited blood and collapsed!
After that, the fourth expert was beaten up by the two of them.
…
Cao Mingzui thought today’s show was really good, even though it wasn’t according to the script, but it was exceptionally exciting. The previous wave was followed by the next, and they were all simply filmed on the beach one after the other. He didn’t do much work, just a little guidance in the middle.
At the end, he remembered his duty, ‘The speeches of the six guests were all very unique, and they presented us with a rare and good show,’
After that, he dutifully moved on to the focus of the day – Han and Feng. Both agreed to appear on the show because they had their own promotional requirements.
‘Regardless of whether Han’s approach is open to question, from the current situation, we must admit that through his own efforts, he has already achieved good results. Han, what are your next arrangements?’
‘I’m preparing my next work,’
‘Can you tell us a little about the content?’
Of course it is convenient, that’s why I’m here. ‘It’s a collection of essays and short stories. I hope you’ll like it when it comes out.’
‘We’ll definitely support it. We hope your new book will be published soon. And what about you, Feng? What are your plans for the future?’
Feng Yiping stood up. ‘In terms of my studies, I will continue to work hard. In terms of work, our company has also entered Shanghai this year. We hope that while learning from the experiences of some of the local industry leaders, we can also provide some high-quality services for the lives of the people of Shanghai.’
Cao Mingzui asked very understandingly, ‘What aspects of these services do you mean?’
‘All the services we can provide, including Jia Bianli, Yijia Express Hotel, Jiasheng Decoration, Jiasheng Furniture, Jiasheng Auto Network, Jiasheng Holiday Inn…,’
While we were singing praises of our services, the experts on the other side were packing up and getting ready to leave.
Tonight was a real embarrassment, especially for Feng Yiping, who is known for his easy-going nature. He was even more difficult to deal with than Han, who is known for his rebelliousness!
If we ever participate in a programme with him again, we’ll be out of luck!
