Chapter 478 Visiting Professor of the Department of History
If Shanghai University of Communication invites Xu to give music lessons, it is within the range that everyone can expect.
The sudden announcement from the School of History of Jiangxi University shocked all the students.
The next morning, the School of History of Jiangxi University suddenly issued a notice.
"Li Tongchen will no longer be the teacher for the history elective course "Ancient Chinese History". The college will arrange for other teachers to teach the class, and classes will start this Wednesday."
History electives are usually taught by Li Tongchen. This semester's courses are relatively low on the list and they haven't actually started yet.
Li Tongchen is a celebrity professor with millions of fans online. Many people choose this elective course because of him.
When several students from the history department saw the notice, they were so angry that they yelled: "Damn, you are kidding me!"
"What is the school doing? This lesson taught by Professor Li is quite interesting. . ”
“When choosing courses, many students from other majors chose this course and were about to start the class, but they were suddenly replaced. ”
Chen Xiao grumbled.
"Professor Li is not feeling well, is he?"
"Ah? Not really, he seemed to be in good spirits the past two days."
Many students are Saw the notification.
“What do the schools think? Without Professor Li, this class would be mostly full of people!”
"It's a pity that the only star course in the School of History."
"Hey, I don't know who will take the class."
The elective course "Ancient Chinese History" has a limit of 200 registrations. There are often thousands of people competing for spots.
But as soon as the notice came out, many people suddenly lost interest.
"I have something to do this week. I won't be going to "Ancient Chinese History". Don't you want to go? You can go for me!"
"Screw you, you only thought of me when someone else changed, and I don't want to go either."
There are not a few students who have this idea.
Since Li Tongchen doesn’t teach, the biggest highlight of this class is gone. If it’s a boring teacher, it’s better to play ball.
Promise home.
Xu Chengwen looked shocked: "What the hell? Jiang University invited you to be a teacher?"
"How's it going? Is it enough to make you look good?" Xu Nuo happily took a sip of tea.
"What are you talking about? Music?"
"Hey, none of them, guess what?"
Zheng Qiuyun: "My son can talk about anything!"
Xu Chengwen rolled his eyes at her and turned to Xu Nuo: "It is a good thing that Jiang Da invites you, but it is not a good thing to have a big bowl of rice depending on your ability, and to obtain honors and status that exceed your own abilities."
< br>
Xu Nuo nodded: "Don't worry, I know it well."
The mismatch between honor and ability will result in everyone criticizing him. Not only is such an honor useless to him, but it is also a drag.
Lao Xu has always understood the truth very clearly.
"By the way, you haven't said what Jiang Da invited you to talk about." Seeing that he had listened, Xu Chengwen picked up the cup and took a sip of tea with satisfaction.
It seems that his family status has not been reduced. No matter how capable his son is outside, he still has to listen to him.
"History."
Xu Chengwen spit out a mouthful of tea.
"What the hell? History?" Xu Chengwen was dumbfounded. Promise has nothing to do with history.
“I don’t know if I’m crazy or Jiang Da collectively is crazy. You’re just a singer going to talk about history?”
Zheng Qiuyun is no longer calm. She always thought that Jiang Da invited him because Let’s talk about music or something, who knew it would turn out to be history.
Pride is pride, and Zheng Qiuyun is also a person who understands: "Xiao Nuo, you studied broadcasting and now you are a star. Can you do this history?"
Xu Nuo smiled slightly, knowing that her parents were just worried. , "Mom, don't worry, has your son ever done anything he's not sure about?"
Having said that, the old couple both looked a little worried.
Fame and fortune are attractive to people. It is human nature to pursue fame and fortune. Even Xu Chengwen himself would find it difficult to refuse the temptation of a top university like Jiangda.
Although celebrities may appear to be famous on the surface, that is just the face others are willing to give them. In terms of qualifications and reputation, they are not worth mentioning at all.
But university professors are different. The reputation of a professor at Shanghai University of Media and Communication means that if you participate in certain activities, you will be able to sit on the rostrum.
And Jiang University is even more different. With this title of professor, you will be treated politely wherever you go.
Especially in Jiangcheng and even the entire central region, Professor Jiang Da is a golden sign.
What Xu Chengwen is most worried about is that his promise will not hold up, or that he will be taken advantage of by some people.
"Dad, I have thought of everything you have considered. Don't worry. This decision was made jointly by the School of History. Except for a few people who did not vote, your son almost unanimously passed it." Xu Nuo smiled. . Looking back on the meeting at the Jiangnan University School of History, Xu Nuo still finds it a bit unbelievable.
Li Tongchen, who had always been gentle and elegant, actually became a bit sarcastic when it came to his problems, like Zhuge Liang was quarreling with other scholars.
"Old Li, I know you are optimistic about promises, but you have to know that history requires a lot of accumulation." Lao Ma shook his head.
Li Tongchen said unceremoniously: "You have accumulated a lot, but of what use is it? Is anyone interested in what you are studying?"
Lao Ma: "...it hurts my heart. ! ”
A professor surnamed Wang said: "Xu Nuo's major is not history, and the job he is currently engaged in has nothing to do with history. Is it possible that he is deviant? In this way, our School of History will be questioned!"
Li Tongchen snorted: "Why are you so feudal? Have you been forgotten by the reform and opening up?"
Professor Wang can't deal with it, so why are you still attacking him personally?
“There is a saying that those who know first come first. What’s wrong if you’re not a history major? I remember correctly, Lao Wang, you majored in geography!”
“I still feel it’s inappropriate, after all. History is a very rigorous subject, and it won’t work without some hard work. As far as I know, Xu Nuo is actually quite busy, right? Filming TV series, movies, and writing songs..."
Before Xu Nuo spoke, Li Tongchen waved his hand: "Today I will show you what genius is! Why are you so busy? You can surpass most people if you just take some time."
Li Tongchen looks like a graduate During the defense, Hu Duzi's tutor didn't let Xu Nuo say a word and rolled up his sleeves to refute them one by one.
Xu Nuo looked at Li Tongchen who was spitting and felt a little moved.
To be honest, he didn't have much dealings with Li Tongchen. They even met for the first time yesterday, but Li Tongchen spared no effort to protect him, even at the expense of his own image.
How can ordinary people do this?
Xu Nuo watched Li Tongchen chatting with the scholars, and then looked at the dean who looked incomprehensible, and suddenly understood that Li Tongchen must have convinced the dean.
"Lao Li, you came prepared today. It's not your style at all. But if you want to convince us, you have to come up with something. Even if we don't have any objections, I'm afraid that the students will I have an opinion."
Li Tongchen chuckled, sat down and took a sip of tea, "You only saw the possible criticism, but you didn't see the influence that promised to bring after joining. Everyone here. He is an expert, but in terms of influence on the public, none of us can compare to Xiao Xu."
Seeing that most people agreed, Li Tongchen proudly sent the information in his hand to everyone, "Take a good look. Look, this time it’s the Jiangnan University School of History’s turn to be popular all over the Internet!”
A few people who were not very convinced took it and were stunned for a moment.
Professor Wang was very impressed: "Writing history in the same way as a novel? This is indeed a good idea!"
"But this is a bit difficult. You must have writing skills, understand history, and write wonderfully. It looks good.”
Seeing that the overall situation was decided, Dean Qian, who had been playing inscrutable for a long time, finally spoke.
He knocked on the table: "Do you have any other opinions?"
A professor hesitated, opened and closed his mouth, and finally said nothing.
Dean Qian knew it well, "Do you think we are getting more attention and support now, or are we getting more attention after promising to join?"
Several unconvinced professors looked at each other. , my thoughts suddenly opened up.
"Whether it is better to divide the cake that is so big in total or to make the cake bigger, I need not say more about this truth."
Dean Qian said slowly : "Xiao Xu may not study history as well as you, but he can play a huge role in promoting history, and may even set off a historical craze. Just like the martial arts craze, as far as I know, martial arts have seized the opportunity and appeared. The signs of recovery and the opportunities contained therein need to be grasped by yourselves."
No one made any comments this time.
Dean Qian stood up and shook hands with Xu Nuo: "Teacher Xu, welcome to Jiangnan University!"
Xu Nuo looked serious, "This is my honor."
"Hahaha, from now on. Colleague!" Li Tongchen was excited.
Everyone else accepted this fact.
If other celebrities directly serve as teachers, they will feel that this is trampling on the arrogance of literati.
But if you make a promise, it doesn't seem that hard to accept.
First of all, he is half a literati himself, and he used poems and songs in his lyrics. Secondly, he also wrote "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", a work of great literary value.
Besides, it doesn’t seem too outrageous that a distinguished professor from Shanghai University of Communication is also a visiting professor at Jiangsu University.
After taking the first step, the next road will be much easier.
If changing the teacher of "Ancient Chinese History" is just a small matter, only some students who have grabbed this course will care.
Then the next official announcement from Jiangsu University was like an atomic bomb exploding in the middle of the crowd.
“The famous composer, singer, director, screenwriter, program planner, writer, and distinguished professor of Shanghai University of Communication has promised to officially join the School of History of Jiangnan University as a visiting professor!”
A long one The string of names, every single one is resounding, but the more important thing is the following sentence.
Join Jiangnan University School of History.
Today’s colleges and universities are not as good as in the past. If you want to be a teacher, you need a Ph.D., and you have to have a bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degree to have a chance. If you miss even one link, you won’t have a chance.
And at the age of 23, the promise of a bachelor's degree was so easy to join.
The Internet has exploded. This news is so amazing!
It’s not literature, it’s not music, it’s history?
