In 2023, Zhang Xuefeng has swiped the screen twice, the first time is in June, not long after the end of the college entrance examination, when Zhang Xuefeng instructed a college entrance examination student to apply for a major, he said that it is better not to apply for a journalism major, and it is better to touch a major with his eyes closed than a news report. Then this time, "liberal arts are all service industries", "the service industry is the master, I'll give you a laugh", "It can be summed up as 'licking'". For Zhang Xuefeng, the evaluation is polarized, some people comment that Zhang Xuefeng is telling the truth, and more people are scolding him for misleading and misleading people's children. In fact, when evaluating the same person, it is natural that there are different interests and different evaluations. Most of the people who support Zhang Xuefeng are ordinary families, and many of the people who scold him are college teachers and the like, especially the professionals and university related personnel who were named by Zhang Xuefeng as more rubbish.
Why is Zhang Xuefeng in China?The reason is very simple, universities are over-expanding, diplomas are devalued, and at present, China has more than 100,000 doctoral students a year, while the United States has only about 50,000 doctoral students a year. Does China need so many PhDs?Not to mention the excessive expansion of master's and undergraduate enrollment. When I was an undergraduate in the 90s of the last century, there were more than 5,000 students in the school, and now there are 3More than 50,000 people, an increase of about 7 times. Too many parents and students need guidance on how to choose a major, a school, and invest valuable time and money to achieve a promising return on investment in higher education. At the same time, the professional employment data disclosed by the Ministry of Education and colleges and universities are too general, and even too much water is injected [for example, the employment rate criticized for one or two decades is often more than 90%], so a bunch of parents of students are looking for Zhang Xuefeng. If the employment data disclosed by the Ministry of Education and universities is true and comprehensive, then Zhang Xuefeng and similar people and companies basically have no market, or it is impossible to make so much money. Zhang Xuefeng once said that his daughter does not need to take the postgraduate entrance examination because she already has enough economic strength and so on.
Is Zhang Xuefeng right?
In June, a journalism professor at Chongqing University criticized Zhang Xuefeng for misleading students' parents, but Zhang's response was actually quite reasonable. Zhang Xuefeng said that most of the candidates are ordinary families, the cost of trial and error is very high, and applying for a major is a great opportunity to change your life, and you must consider it from a realistic perspective such as economic employment. He also said that if the conditions allow and the family is well-off, then the child can continue to try and make mistakes, but most families do not have very good conditions. Children from poor families should talk about food and clothing first, and then talk about feelings. Obviously, Zhang Xuefeng is right in this regard.
Taking the liberal arts service kneeling and licking incident in December as an example, Zhang Xuefeng is wrong. First of all, what is licking?According to Zhang Xuefeng, to serve others and satisfy others is similar to giving an uncle a smile. This is obviously nonsense, Zhang Xuefeng makes money by himself, isn't he also serving others and satisfying others?Did he lick others and give the uncle a smile?Further, don't science majors have to satisfy others?The essence of social division of labor and exchange is to meet the needs of others, so as to make their own money to survive and develop. Of course, sometimes, the competition is too fierce, and some workers have to sacrifice their self-esteem to some extent to cater to the unreasonable demands of some customers, which is another matter, and it is not possible to generalize which profession is licked or not.
Zhang Xuefeng, as an undergraduate graduate of Zhengzhou University, a teacher engaged in teaching counseling and consulting, and a public figure, has better words to express, but in fact, in addition to personality, Zhang Xuefeng is more deliberate. Zhang Xuefeng himself, as a businessman engaged in education consulting services, needs to create hot spots, let himself be on the hot search for free for a period of time, and then harvest a wave of traffic to realize, after all, Zhang Xuefeng and his company are not immortals, they also have to eat, and they have to make money to survive. So why did he say: Apologize this thing is like you squeeze someone else on the bus, you say sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
What can you learn from Zhang Xuefeng?In fact, what Zhang Xuefeng is really worth looking at is his career development trajectory, which has some inspiration for young people. Zhang Xuefeng, a native of Heilongjiang, studied water supply and drainage engineering at Zhengzhou University. From the tutor of the postgraduate entrance examination to the legal representative of Suzhou Fengxue Weilai Education Technology, he was elected as a representative of the 14th People's Congress of Jiangsu Province in 2023.
