Society is very different. Society is more of a place for exchange of interests, a market and "civilian politics"; The main evaluation is not your superior intelligence (although your intelligence and wisdom can still help you), but whether you can think of what others want; This thing is no longer decided by the center-the teacher, but by the score-decided by many consumers. Therefore, despite the price tag of 178 yuan, in less than 10 days, 3,000 English versions of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix have been out of stock in Beijing Xinhua Bookstore, and many scholars' works can't be sold so much in their lifetime, and even they can only be "kept in the inner room, and no one knows her"; That's why "fool melon seeds" is in its prime, "missile makers are not as good as those who sell tea eggs", and students in the IT industry drop out of school. This "upside down" is not perfect, but it just shows the market standard.
Human limitations-you can't expect to turn consumers into Qian Zhongshu or Nash through education or anything else. Therefore, our classmates should never bring the campus standards that they have been accustomed to since 16 into the society intact, otherwise you will find that "Chu Jincai doesn't need it", and you can only comfort yourself with "I am naturally useful" like Li Bai, and even become a person who is incompatible with society and the market.
Although the hand of society and market is invisible, it is tangible; It doesn't talk about futures, but also about turning futures into cash. You can criticize it for being short-sighted, but it usually doesn't and has no obligation to wait for you to grow up and mature. It treats everyone who enters the society equally, no matter you just graduated and have no experience. If you miss an opportunity, you lose it; Unlike in school, you will be asked to make up the exam or make love to the teacher to change the score. "Peking University students have potential and stamina", others say so, don't say it yourself, and don't believe it. This statement is not a placebo. In a way, it actually means that you can't, at least not now. If you have any quality, potential and endurance, you have to show it to me, and you have to turn it into something real for me-perhaps the drafting of a contract or a successful lawsuit.
