In 2009, a middle-aged man with a mediocre appearance received a doctorate from Fudan University.
Unexpectedly, this man only had a high school education, and a year ago he was just a poor tricycle driver who couldn't make ends meet.
This huge gap can't help but make people wonder, does he have any special background? Or is there another reason?
His name isCai WeiIn fact, what everyone doesn't believe is that on the day he received the doctoral admission letter from Fudan University, he had just finished his business of pedaling a tricycle.
At that time, he was 38 years old, and he had not gone to school for more than ten years, and he only had a high school education.
What is there about him that can make Fudan University admit exceptions?
Born in Jinzhou, Liaoning Province in 1972, Cai Wei has had a great interest in ancient books and calligraphy since he was a child. He especially likes rare words for graduate studentsBecause of this, Cai Wei's Chinese score is the first class in the class.
So good that even rare words that teachers don't know will come to ask Cai Wei, and he has become a "living dictionary" on campus.
But to everyone's surprise, Cai Wei failed in the college entrance examination, and his parents took Cai Wei to the teacher to consult about repetition, but the teacher's words gave them a blow to the head.
The teacher mercilessly rejected his parents' suggestion that Cai Wei repeat it:"No matter how many years he repeats, Cai Wei can't be admitted to university, don't waste it. ”
Why is that? It turned out that although Cai Wei's Chinese scores were good, his grades in other subjects were a mess, and he couldn't bear to look at them directly.
The main subjects of mathematics and English will be in single digits every timeTherefore, even though Cai Wei is gifted in language, there is no precedent for any university to admit such a partial student.
Cai Wei, who failed the college entrance examination, could only go to work in the factory, but he did not give up studying because of this, he still insisted on studyingIn one year, Cai Wei has read more than 300 booksEven professors at many specialized universities can't match this reading speed.
But it is precisely because Cai Wei is addicted to reading and can't extricate himself that his work is a mess.
As we all know, ICBC pays attention to efficiency, but because he is addicted to reading every day and cannot complete tasks, his efficiency is too poor, and the boss is unwilling to reuse him.
So in a fit of anger, Cai Wei resigned, and after resigning, he found another way to make a living, that is, to set up a stall.
Cai Wei thought that setting up a stall was a job that could not only make money, but also study. But he was wrong, setting up a stall also needs to shout and solicit a living.
He studied all day long, so naturally his business was very poor.
But fortunately, Cai Wei never spends money indiscriminately, although he earns less, but it is still enough to eat and drink.
In fact, Cai Wei also wanted to give up for a while, but thinking about how long he persisted, if he gave up, it would be a waste of his previous efforts.
So he gritted his teeth and persevered, for the sake of his love,And at this time, the person who happened to change his fate appeared.
This man was his wifeZhang Yue
The two met in the factory, where she was a female worker and although she had never gone to school, she was not harsh on her husband's obsession with reading.
On the contrary, she is very supportive of her husband's study, and Zhang Yue never disturbs her husband whenever he reads.
And it was Zhang Yue's support that gave Cai Wei the motivation to persevere.
In order to support her husband's study, Zhang Yue took on the responsibility of making money to support her family, she worked hard day and night, no matter what dirty work it was, as long as she gave money, she was willing to do it.
But such a high-intensity work for a long time caused Zhang Yue's body problems.
She finally couldn't support it anymore and collapsed, and was sent to the hospital by a worker and learned that she needed 50,000 yuan in medical expenses.
50,000 yuan was an astronomical amount for Cai Wei at that time, and at this time he had to put down his favorite reading and find a way to find an opportunity to make money to treat his wife's illness.
He borrowed all the relatives and friends around him to scrape together his wife's medical expenses, and then in order to make money to pay off his debts, Cai Wei became a tricycle driver.
This time he experienced the hardships of his wife, Cai Wei had to get up before dawn every day to go out to solicit customers, and he would not go home until the early hours of the morning at night.
At this time, he realized how difficult it was for his wife to work hard to earn money to support the family every day, and at the same time, he regretted very much why he couldn't wake up early and take on the responsibility of supporting the family with his wife.
But at this time, facing his wife lying in the hospital, it was too late to say anything.
This is the appearance of another person, which is tantamount to saving Cai Wei from fire and water, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he changed the second half of Cai Wei's life.
He is the master of Chinese culture in my countryQiu Seok-gyu。Because Cai Wei likes to read, he has long known the name of Mr. Qiu Xigui.
So he wrote his reading experience and sent it to Mr. Qiu Xigui, with the mentality that the letter would sink into the sea, and Cai Wei did not ask this literary master to see and reply to him.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Qiu Xigui was very surprised by Cai Wei's literary level, not only wrote back to him, but even encouraged him to continue to create.
It was this letter that gave Cai Wei the motivation to continue studying. The two also met in Beijing to talk about their reading experienceMr. Qiu Xigui even completed an academic ** because of Cai Wei's inspiration.
He regretted Cai Wei's academic qualifications, and he encouraged Cai Wei to take the postgraduate examination, but Cai Wei even had his own bias, so he rejected Mr. Qiu Xigui's suggestion.
Then Cai Wei's wife fell ill, and Cai Wei was busy making money to support his family, so he naturally lost contact with Mr. Qiu Xigui.
Mr. Qiu Xigui saw that his year-old friend had disappeared, and hurriedly inquired about Cai Wei's news, and after learning that Cai Wei's wife was sick, he was always trying to save this Chinese scholar.
At this time, Mr. Qiu Xigui was compiling the "Mawangdui Han Tomb Silk Collection" at Fudan University, and he thought of Cai Wei and felt that he was capable of doing the job, and the salary was not low.
So Mr. Qiu Xigui strongly recommended Cai Wei to his superiors to participate in the work, which could not only continue Cai Wei's literary dream, but also allow him to solve the urgent need of low income.
In this way, Cai Wei and Mr. Qiu Xigui completed the work excellently together. Cai Wei's outstanding performance surprised everyone, because he did not have any academic achievements, but he relied on his rich knowledge to complete the task excellently.
But with the completion of the compilation work, Cai Wei's literary dream is about to come to an end, because he is going back to be his tricycle driver.
Professor Qiu Xigui cherished talents, so he strongly recommended Cai Wei to Fudan University, and Mr. Qiu Xigui's guarantee, and Fudan University's assessment of him, and finally Fudan University decided to admit Cai Wei as a doctor.
As a result, after 6 years of study, Cai Wei successfully obtained a doctorate degree and obtained a doctoral diploma from Fudan University through defense.
So after graduating, he went to **, how did he live?
After the country knew Cai Wei's ability, it naturally couldn't bear such a talent to do the lowest work. So he was hired by a university in Guizhou and became a professor of Chinese studiesIn this most suitable position for him, he continues to shine and cultivate talents for the country.
He was lucky for Cai Wei, and the two people he met in his life determined his future.
If it weren't for his wife's tolerance, he would never have been able to continue studying, and if he hadn't met Mr. Qiu Xigui, he wouldn't have been able to reach his current achievements and heights.
Cai Wei is like a thousand-mile horse, he met his Bole, Bole discovered the shining points in him, and with Bole's recommendation, Cai Wei was able to achieve the counterattack in his life.
Naturally, these are also completely inseparable from his efforts, his habit of insisting on reading has given him a wealth of knowledge, so it is logical to accept the tests, and his life is getting better and better with his efforts.
