In an in-depth interview, Professor Zheng Qiang revealed to us the deep reasons for stepping down. He made it clear that his lack of further promotion was not simply due to age, but more closely related to his personality and outspoken expression.
In Professor Zheng Qiang's view, some words should not be spoken lightly, and some topics should not be touched casually, but his nature is straightforward and honest. He knew that if he suppressed the truth, he would suffer unspeakable pain in his heart. As a result, he chose to stick to his roots, even if it meant giving up certain opportunities for ascension.
Professor Zheng Qiang's persistence has won the wide love of students and brought him today's happiness. He deeply understands that true happiness cannot be measured by power and money. As Sima Qian said, "Man is inherently dead, either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather." "Those who dare to speak up need extraordinary courage;Those who can illuminate others can bring well-being wherever they are.
Although Professor Zheng Qiang has stepped down, his influence will not be diminished. As he said, he will continue to shine in another way and see you all. Let us hope that Professor Zheng Qiang will continue to illuminate the way forward for others in a new form.
