Chapter 352 Summer Camp Contest (5K)
All this was arranged by Qin Shaoyan in advance.
He wants the universities to come out and see the world, not to be brainwashed.
Before these universities see the beautiful, developed and advanced side of these developed countries, let them see clearly the filth and filth hidden behind the glamor.
Let universities understand that under those beautiful filters, the real world is not as beautiful as they imagined.
The heaven on earth mentioned by the public does not exist. They have continued to weave various beautiful filters with mentally retarded lies for many years.
In this period when information is closed and the right to speak is controlled by the public, in this period when national power is not yet strong, ordinary people are still in an era of ignorance and confusion after entering the new millennium.
Under the influence of all kinds of poisonous chicken soup, the cognition of inferiority and backwardness has deeply affected generations of people. Everything abroad is beautiful, everything abroad is correct, and everything domestically is ugly. , everything domestic is wrong.
The common diseases of mankind have been grafted into the unique bad qualities of our own people, and they have been heavily criticized.
The purpose of Qin Shaoyan's planning of the "International College Summer Camp" is not just for marketing and promotion, but to use this opportunity to give domestic students a window and opportunity to observe developed countries in Europe and the United States.
Let them have a deeper understanding of the world, instead of living in an atmosphere of self-dwarfing and longing for heaven on earth woven by public rhetoric.
Qin Shaoyan does not think that he is a moral person, nor does he think that he is a good person, but he feels that he is still a human being.
I feel like I have to do something when I relive this life.
That’s why Qin Shaoyan made special arrangements in his planned itinerary.
For example, placing "actors" among foreign students and bringing in some private goods in university lectures
When arriving in Paris, the first stop was to take the delegation to the legendary Seine River to let them be influenced by the "romantic taste".
With this special power, a deep impression was planted in everyone's mind.
No matter what they see during the rest of the trip, they will be reminded of the special scenery along the Seine.
It turned out that this trick was surprisingly effective, and the students cast an indelible shadow on the Paris filter.
When Japanese tourists first arrived in Paris, there was a huge contrast between the ideal romance and the cruelty in reality.
The imagined elegance, cleanliness, romance and beauty were defeated by the actual arrogance, rudeness, garbage everywhere, indifference and xenophobia. Many of the mentally fragile tourists developed symptoms of mental breakdown. Psychologists named this situation "Paris Syndrome".
However, the performance of Chinese college students is still very good. Although there is a gap in their hearts, they are not as vulnerable as Japanese tourists.
After all, the mentality of the people of a big country and the mentality of people with low self-esteem are not at the same level.
......
After a day's rest, the students in the summer camp began to visit, from the Louvre to Notre Dame de Paris, to the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe.
The two-day visit was an eye-opener for the students. After all, when they were growing up, the farthest place from home was probably to register at the university.
Coming to a foreign country, which is also a world-famous fashion capital, everything you see is novel.
After the tour, although the college students were tired, they were still in high spirits. There were a lot of photos stored in the cameras they carried with them. They wanted to go back to the hotel quickly to record the harvest of the day.
On the bus back to the hotel, a student from HKUST suddenly raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, why are there so many black people in Paris? Are they also trafficked black slaves?"
The teacher leading the group was at a loss for words and explained dryly: "No, France is different from the United States. Most blacks in the United States are the result of slave trafficking. The blacks in France all immigrated from Africa."
"Then why are all the black people running to France?" Other students also asked.
Qin Shaoyan slowly said: "That's because France has many colonies in Africa and still controls these colonies."
The students were stunned for a moment, very surprised, "Aren't the colonies already there? Did it disappear? I remember that the colonies were independent after World War II. At that time, the wave of independence was written in the history books. Could it be that the history books were wrong? "
"The history books are not wrong," Qin Shaoyan said lightly. "It's just that many countries are only superficially independent. The sovereign states of these colonies have withdrawn in name, but in fact they still control these countries through economic, political and other means."
"For example, the Commonwealth, The head of state is still the Queen of England, which is relatively complete independence.”
"France has maintained a CFA franc zone in Africa. By controlling the currency issuance rights of African countries, France has also obtained considerable hidden benefits - seigniorage, and has bound a much larger land and population than the mainland through currency. , France is like getting a continuous supply of milk."
"France still retains a large number of troops in these countries, and even the diplomacy of these countries is controlled by France."
“These countries are equivalent to France’s overseas territories. France lacks a low-level labor force and attracts many people from colonial countries. Among them are not only black people, but also many from North Africa and former French colonies.”
< br>The students fell into silence again. They all knew for the first time that France still controls the colonies.
Qin Shaoyan said expressionlessly: "You should have learned how these European countries became developed countries in history. The local area, population, resources and market alone cannot support the current economy. Volume.”
"But now each of them has become a glorious developed and wealthy country, and the people can easily enjoy a prosperous life."
"Then what is the price?"
"It's just nothing. It’s just the history of blood and tears in those colonies that people care about.”
“There is a small country in Africa called Burkina Faso, which means the country of gentlemen. It was originally named Walter. The name of the young coup officer was changed after he came to power. "
"This officer's name is Thomas Sankara, and he also has a brother-in-arms friend named Compaore. The two are revolutionary comrades who overthrew the reactionary rule. .”
In the silent carriage, Qin Shaoyan narrated the story of Sankara, from his dramatic reforms when he came to power through a coup and his efforts to strive for national independence, to how Sankara set an example and served as an official with integrity.
Although Sankara is the leader of a country, his family is very poor and he has adopted several orphans.
Heroes with noble personalities are always more attractive. The students were gradually attracted to the story Qin Shaoyan told. They thought it was an inspirational story about the independence of a small country. However, the style of the painting changed and the story changed.
Sankara's reforms have touched the interests of the French, and a conspiracy is constantly brewing and planning.
The comrades and comrades who sympathized with the brothers abandoned their faith and turned around and fell into the arms of the French.
Then tragedy happened.
“When the coup troops rushed outside the conference room door, Sankara stood up alone and said to everyone attending the meeting, don’t move, they want me.”
“ Sankara opened the door and was immediately beaten into a sieve. Then the coup troops rushed into the conference room and started a massacre. 12 representatives fell in a pool of blood, and only one of them was seriously injured and survived."
"Sankara's. The whereabouts of the body have been unknown. After the coup, Sankara's wife went into exile with her children. Compaore supported Sankara's father with the treatment of a minister, but Compaore always refused to see the old father."
< br>“And Sankara’s father still doesn’t believe that one of his sons killed another son.”
"Nowadays, this country as humble as dust can no longer make any waves, and it can't even be seen in the international news."
There is still silence in the carriage, but there is a trace of sadness and sadness in the silence. Excited, some female students had red eyes.
Director Wang, who was sitting in the front row, glanced at Qin Shaoyan in surprise, with very complicated emotions in his heart.
I didn’t expect that Mr. Qin spent so much money and trouble to drag college students abroad to receive patriotic education.
The thoughts of rich people are really unpredictable.
...
During the subsequent trip, the mentality of the students on the delegation became different, with novelty and excitement mixed with heaviness.
They began to re-examine these developed countries. After the filter was broken, they were able not to be confused by the appearance, but to think about something deeper.
After visiting the Daiying Museum and looking at the plundered cultural relics and treasures, many students had no intention of continuing to play, and the entire delegation was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
So the Chinese delegation ended their trip in the UK ahead of schedule and arrived in New York by plane.
The consulate staff who came to greet me were very surprised. Didn't they agree to arrive three days later? Why did they come earlier?
And what’s the matter with all these people with sullen faces and low spirits?
With doubts in their hearts, the consulate staff chatted with Director Wang for a few words, explained the arrangements, and left Director Wang his phone number, asking him to call the embassy or consulate directly if he had any questions. Telephone. Just as the staff member was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something. His eyes glanced at the delegation crowd, and his face suddenly darkened, "Director Wang, do you have the wrong number of people in your delegation?"
Director Wang had an embarrassed expression on his face and said nothing.
"Are there three more people?" The staff member frowned and asked seriously, "Who are the three missing?"
"They are the three expert advisory groups who came with the delegation." Director Wang was very surprised. The names and positions of the three people were quickly reported.
"Where are the people?"
"The three of them disappeared in Germany. They said they were out for inspection, and then they couldn't be contacted." Director Wang said helplessly.
The consulate staff’s expression changed and they asked anxiously: “Someone left the group without permission, why didn’t they report it?”
If these three people travel abroad by themselves, they will naturally go wherever they like. That is personal freedom.
But they came with the team, and then they left the group without reporting. What's more, the three of them were within the system and were completely unorganized and undisciplined.
The staff quickly picked up their mobile phones to report to their superiors, and then said seriously to Director Wang: "Director Wang, please take the students to the hotel first. Do not go out after arriving at the hotel, everyone is on standby in the hotel "
Director Wang knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately took the delegation to the hotel where they were staying and told the team members not to go out.
It wasn’t until midnight that news finally came from the German embassy.
The three foreign language experts were found.
Director Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news. He was really afraid that if these three crooked guys ran away, he would definitely be punished.
After these three experts arrived in the Netherlands, they opened up a lot of foreign food, and then went to Poland to study.
While they were enjoying themselves, they discovered that the Facebook staff were missing.
Not only were people missing, but the car also ran away.
The three old men were left on the streets of a foreign country, dumbfounded in a place they were unfamiliar with.
Originally, they could contact the embassy for help, but they were acting outside the group without permission, so they certainly couldn't make any noise about it.
So the three of them almost wandered in Poland, but Edward spent a lot of effort to find these three experts and send them back to Germany.
When these three experts saw Edward, they almost knelt down in front of the foreign man. If he hadn't appeared in time, the old guy would have been sleeping on the streets.
Although they were saved in time, their unauthorized actions could not be concealed, because as soon as they returned to Germany, they suddenly discovered that the delegation had already arrived in France and was not waiting for them at all.
The staff of the embassy in Germany expressed their gratitude to Edward, and then personally escorted the three old men onto the plane to New York, escorting them all the way until they were handed over to the New York consulate.
These three experts didn’t take it seriously at all.
They are from the education system, and the diplomatic system has no control over them. After returning to the country, they will at most be given a few words of indifference by their superiors, and then they will not follow the example, and they will not even need to be inspected.
After all, these three veterans all have a lot of connections in the education system, and their status is higher than that of Hu Feipan and his like.
Director Wang, who was leading the delegation, could not say anything. He could only pretend that it had never happened.
...
After arriving in the United States, the "National College Summer Camp" event entered the highlight.
After all, this event is prepared for elite college students in the United States, and students from other countries are supporting roles and background.
According to the activity plan, students from all countries were divided and assigned to different groups, and then the group members selected the group leader.
The following itinerary will be led by the group leader to conduct various activities to demonstrate the students' leadership and teamwork skills.
Of course, the election was all just a show, and these elite American students were all appointed group leaders.
Especially in the home stadium of these elite college students, these elites showed their unique leadership skills and charm as soon as they came up, and seized the right to speak and lead the group with a tone that could not be refused.
After seeing the lively activities of each group, the three experts couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "The United States deserves to be the beacon of freedom and the world leader."
"Look The quality and eloquence of this student are so different from those of domestic students."
"This shows the shortcomings of domestic education. How can it be done without reform?"
< br>
"What a vivid comparison this is. The comparison between quality education in the United States and exam-oriented education in China is a complete failure."
"If we don't continue to reform, what future will China have? It's like taking jujube pills."< br>
"Director Sun, you are wrong." Professor Feng sighed, "So what if we change it? The gap is too big and cannot be made up at all. Let alone compare with the United States, even with Japan. "
"I remember that you wrote an article "The Contest in the Summer Camp" before, and the outcome of some things was decided ten years ago. "
Director Sun also sighed, "I am terminally ill and cannot be saved."
The words of the three old men became more and more outrageous. Director Wang beside him couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly: "Three professors, after all, these are our Chinese students. Don't let others' ambitions destroy your own prestige."
Director Sun said disdainfully: "You are just brainless doting. How can these students do it if they don't accept critical education? How can they go into society if they don't recognize the reality clearly?"
Director Wang laughed angrily. He said: "It's just an activity. Our students are not as bad as you said, right?"
Professor Feng said proudly: "Director Wang, we are just stating the facts, why are we so long-term?" When others are ambitious, they must face up to the gap."
Qin Shaoyan, who had not spoken yet, suddenly burst into laughter. Professor Feng immediately frowned and turned to look at Qin Shaoyan, "What are you laughing at?"
Qin Shaoyan pondered for two seconds and said slowly: "I remember that the population of Nagasaki, Japan, was 230,000 during World War II. After the United States dropped the atomic bomb, the population of Nagasaki had become 400,000."
"What does this mean? ? This shows that atomic bombs help population growth!"
Professor Feng's face immediately turned pale and he immediately jumped: "What unit are you from? Why are you talking nonsense? It is damaging the relationship between Japan and China!"
Qin Shaoyan was stunned: "Professor Feng, I am just stating the facts. How can it damage the relationship between China and Japan? We must face history."
Professor Feng. He stood there so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Qin Shaoyan was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot and walked away directly.
Director Sun comforted Professor Feng, "Don't be acquainted with such people, they are just common people. We are all people with status."
Qin Shaoyan stopped and turned to look at Director Sun One glance and a sneer.
Director Sun felt a chill in his heart, and then laughed to himself, what is his identity, why should he be so familiar with such a young man.
……
In the afternoon, more than a hundred summer camp students gathered in the auditorium of New York University and began to listen to lectures by famous professors.
But just as the lecture began, the host suddenly came on stage and said with a smile: "Let us invite Mr. Sun, a famous education expert and scholar from China, to come on stage to give us a lecture. Everyone is welcome."
Director Sun was stunned for a moment, then looked at the host in disbelief, feeling ecstatic in his heart.
I didn’t expect that I would be treated like this.
At the invitation of the host, Director Sun walked up to the podium. Before he started speaking, the host continued: "Let's first read the famous article "The Competition in Summer Camp" written by Mr. Sun"< br>
The students in the audience looked curious and looked at the projector.
Director Sun's face immediately turned pale and bad.
