February** Dynamic Incentive Program
Over the years, there has been a lot of love and hatred of KPIs, which are short for key performance indicators in Chinese. According to the explanation of KPI in an online encyclopedia, KPI is a goal-oriented quantitative management index that measures process performance by setting, sampling, calculating and analyzing the key parameters of the input and output of the organization's internal processes, and is a tool to decompose the strategic goals of the enterprise (or team) into actionable work objectives, and is the basis of enterprise (or team) performance management.
At the end of each year, the assessment of various KPIs comes one after another, which makes people dizzy, flustered, upset, and painful. However, as the saying goes, "there is nothing new under the sun", recently there have been new discoveries in reading, and even our great writer Lu Xun was deeply troubled by KPIs back then, and my generation can't help but feel a little relieved.
It is said that Lu Xun was involved in the famous female teacher trend in Beijing, and was dismissed from the post of secretary of the Ministry of Education by Zhang Shizhao, then the director of Beiyang ** education, and later Lu Xun sued the Pingzheng Yuan with a complaint, and finally won the lawsuit and resumed the post of secretary of the Ministry of Education.
On March 25, 1926, after attending the memorial service of Liu Hezhen and Yang Dequn, the victims of "March 18", Lu Xun wrote the famous article "In Memory of Liu Hezhen" that was selected into the middle school Chinese textbook.
Soon, at that time, there was a secret order to disclose that Duan Qirui was wanted by Lu Xun and other fifty people in the academic circles, and Lu Xun had to temporarily move to avoid the limelight. It was not until May 2 that he returned to his apartment in Beijing and resumed his normal life. At this time, Xiamen University extended an olive branch to Lu Xun. Lu Xun's friend Lin Yutang was the new dean of the Department of Chinese Studies at Xiamen University and invited him to teach at Xiamen University. Xiamen is far away from Beijing, a place of right and wrong, and close to Guangdong, not only has a warm natural climate, but also has a political atmosphere that is not comparable to Beijing.
What's more, the salary offered by Xiamen University is 400 yuan per month, and such a generous salary naturally made Lu Xun, who was quite shy at the time, excited, and immediately went there. On the afternoon of 26 August, Lu Xun took a train to Jinpu Road via Tianjin, stopping in Shanghai for four days on the way. On the evening of 1 September, he boarded the steamship "Xinning" bound for Xiamen, and arrived in Xiamen on the afternoon of 4 September after several days of turbulence at sea.
That year, the fall semester of Xiamen University was still on September 20, so Lu Xun still had a long leisure time after arriving at the school. Xiamen University gave Lu Xun six hours a week of classes. The two-hour history of China, because I had taken it in Beijing before, Lu Xun said that there was no need to prepare for class. There are also two hours of book research, which requires lesson preparation, and two hours of Chinese literary history, which requires the preparation of lecture notes.
But as soon as school started, Lu Xun's troubles came. On the day of the opening of the school on September 20, Lu Xun complained in a letter to Xu Guangping about the school authorities at Xiamen UniversityThe school authorities are also anxious to get things done, asking about resumes, books, plans, and what results will be published at the end of the year, which is annoying to watch.
In this way, Xiamen University has been implementing KPI assessment for teachers in the twenties of the last century, although there may not be this term at that time, but the essence is so, it is at the forefront of the times.
But fortunately, Lu Xun is not Fang Hongjian and others who do not learn and have no skills in Qian Zhongshu's "Siege of the City", although he is quite disgusted with this kind of KPI assessment of Xiamen University from the bottom of his heart, he is not afraid. Later in this letter, he continues:In fact, as long as I take out "Ancient ** Hook Sinking", I can be a research professor for three or four years, and the rest can be ignored.
Due to various reasons, Lu Xun only stayed at Xiamen University for one semester before deciding to leave Xiamen University and teach at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangdong. In any case, the KPI of Xiamen University did not have Mr. Nai Lu Xun in the end.
By the way, many of Mr. Lu Xun's famous essays in "Morning Flowers and Sunset", such as "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Study", were written during his teaching at Xiamen University. However, these are literary creations, not academic research, so they should not be included in the KPI assessment. Hehe, so what!
