These days, the college entrance examination list, fourteen originally wanted to click into the hot search to admire the style of the local school bully, but did not expect, but forced to know an artist -
Ma Jiaqi.
Who is Ma Jiaqi?
The captain of a newborn idol team "Times Youth League", the reason why he is on the hot search is because of his college entrance examination score this year-
The total score of the art test is 307 points: Chinese 98, Mathematics 25, Foreign Language 44, Comprehensive 140.
Although this result is extremely outrageous, in my opinion, it is just an idol who failed the college entrance examination, why will it cause public indignation?
Carefully investigating the reasons, I found that what turned out to be everyone's anger was not because Ma Jiaqi failed to make the college entrance examination, but because in the few days of the college entrance examination, the news of Ma Jiaqi's "participating in the college entrance examination" frequently occupied the hot search to create a hegemonic person-
"Ma Jiaqi retreat", "Ma Jiaqi suspended his work and concentrated on the college entrance examination"...
But at the end of this marketing, there was an outrageous score of 307, which surprised the public.
What makes me feel most incomprehensible is that when this kind of ending occurs, its huge fans not only do not feel ashamed of their idols, but instead make accusations on major platforms, and even promote the uselessness of reading.
I really want to ask the fans who think Ma Jiaqi "worked hard", don't you really know what a score of 44 in foreign languages and 25 points in mathematics is?
This is a score that can be exceeded by putting the answer card on the ground and stepping on it.
Looking at Ma Jiaqi's apology Weibo full of praise under the weibo ——
I can't help but wonder, what is wrong in our time?
01, terminally ill
Every era has its own value orientation.
The people of the Eastern Han And Jin Dynasties advocated "filial piety first, heavy death and light life", and the specifications of their funerals were extremely extravagant, so the most typical case of filial piety in the Twenty-Four Filial Pieties Chart appeared——
Bury children and serve mothers, sell themselves to bury their fathers, fill the blood of mosquitoes, and carve wood for relatives.
In the Song Dynasty, the whole country had an obsessive attitude towards culture and education, and the poet's exit was "all things are inferior, but the reading is high."
In this way, the samurai became the "lower nine streams" in the eyes of the world, and the sword next to Shizi's waist also became a folding fan in his hand.
It is precisely because the "Song people are tired of martial arts" that they have subtly formed their "cowardly" character after a hundred years, and have become the "great instigation dynasty" in the post-population.
Just as Li Shimin said in "taking history as a mirror", the value orientation of a society will have a profound impact on the country and the people, and this influence will last for a hundred years or even longer.
So, the time has come to the present, what values do we advocate in our time? What kind of values are our society exporting?
Open every social platform, the topics that the public cares about most must be "gossip", "Internet celebrities", "anchors" and "idols".
Idol, in the dictionary, means "the object of worship and pursuit", so what is the public pursuing?
Is it Guan Xiaotong, who made a binary one-time equation, surprised the running boy group, and was praised as a "xueba" to rush to the hot search?
Or in the "Math Quiz" section of Creation 101, you were asked", "How much does eight times seven equal?" Wu Xuanyi, who blurted out "42"?
Look at these star idols who have not even learned the most basic elementary school mathematics, and then look at the "brain-dead fans" who turn a blind eye to it.
The value orientation of this era does not seem to be normal.
I don't mean to target these star idols, nor do I ask them to use higher standards than ordinary people, I just think that as a public figure, as a role model that influences thousands of young boys and girls, they must at least play a positive role.
Instead of saying in the talent show that they pursue their dreams, love music, and like acting, but their eyes are full of greed.
Do you really think that the audience doesn't know what you want?
In this era, as long as you have a good-looking face, even if nothing will be, you can still earn gold every day.
In the past, we believed that "there is a beautiful jade in the book, and there is a golden house in the book", but this era has slapped you hard.
You see, even if you work hard to study for 12 years, look back and find that you have worked hard all your life, but it is not as good as the tip of the Internet celebrity Sun Yining one night, and it is more likely that zheng Shuang's daily salary will not be earned.
In the current society, a group of people with the lowest average cultural attainment occupy the most resources in society.
They have the most worldly symbol of success, "money", but they still cry to you in front of the screen that "we are not easy".
What are you not easy to do, are you too tired or too easy to earn?
When we were young, we asked our parents, "Why study hard?" ”
They will answer: "Knowledge changes destiny, struggle changes life." ”
Why do we believe our parents' words, because we have personally witnessed countless instances with our eyes, but now, if a child comes to you and asks you the same question, how will you answer it?
Can you still justifiably say that "knowledge changes destiny"? You can't say it.
Because, on TV, on the Internet, every instance is telling you —
Internet celebrities and idols are the life of those scientific researchers and workers.
02, the stars shine brightly
In fact, I don't dislike artists myself, I resent —
It is those who should be used as positive energy to motivate fans, but in turn bring fans to the ditch.
On May Day this year, in order to make his favorite idol Love Bean debut in a group, crazy fans spent money like dirt, and cartons of milk were poured into the ditch, which was shocking to the world.
The book's 'every grain is hard' is just a joke in the eyes of young people in this era.
In the "Post-95 Mystery Employment Concept" released by Xinhua News Agency in 2017, 54% of the post-95s most desirable occupations are Internet celebrities and anchors.
Once, we wrote in the essay, wanted to be scientists, engineers, but now, become Internet celebrities, idols.
But can you condemn the younger generation in this way?
I don't think they're wrong, they just choose a path that is easier in the eyes of the world.
Once upon a time, knowledge was wealth, and now, traffic is wealth.
Countless Internet celebrities became famous overnight, and the examples of daily income of millions are in front of you, can you not be moved?
This is the choice that society makes for children.
In my memory, idols should not be like this.
It is teacher Li Xuejian who splashed ink in "Water Margin" and wrote down the freedom of "if he is lingyunzhi when he is lingyunzhi, dare to laugh at Huang Chao and not husband", and it is Li Jian who sings affectionately in "Lake Baikal" the elegance of "where the spring breeze is intoxicated, where the grass is green".
It is Su Youpeng, who debuted in Asia at the age of 15, and was able to enter the best Jianguo Middle School in Taiwan with the first result in the whole school, and finally entered the strength of NTU with the fifth place in the whole Taiwan Science and Engineering.
In 1978, the newly released "People's Literature" was robbed by the whole country, and the cover article of that issue was called "Goldbach Conjecture", and the protagonist was the famous mathematician Chen Jingrun.
The best-selling book in the country in the last century was "100,000 Whys", and the waist seal of its book was domineeringly written: 100,000 whys can be used for a lifetime, and generations cannot forget it.
For the children of that era, the proudest thing was to have a whole set of "100,000 Whys".
On October 15, 2003, Yang Liwei landed in space on Shenzhou 5, creating history and inspiring the whole country.
It was an age of reverence for knowledge and reverence for science.
Today, 18 years later, no one is lining up in front of Xinhua Bookstore to buy books, but some people will wait at the airport all night in order to pick up their idols.
The cover of "People's Literature" changed from a scientist to a story of going to the sea to do business and speculate in stocks to get rich, and then no one cared.
"100,000 Whys" was fixed at 100 million, of which 70 million sales were completed in the last century.
In 1999, three years after Chen Jingrun's death, the International Committee for the Naming of Small Bodies renamed asteroid 7681 "Chen Jingrun Star" in honor of this great mathematician.
In 2005, with the approval of the International Minor Planet Center and the International Committee on Minor Planet Nomenclature, an asteroid 21064 traveling in space was officially named "Yang Liwei Star".
Today, Chen Jingrunxing, Yang Liweixing, Yuan Longpingxing's side——
In 2011, the record company rewarded Rainie Yang with the asteroid named after her English name "rainie".
He is a fan of Brilliance Chenyu and bought him the "chenyu hua" star.
In this age of entertainment to death, the stars tonight are still shining.
03, finally.
Everyone has their own opinion on the definition and love of idols.
But I think a passage from "Family with Children" may best express my inner definition -
A qualified idol should have some common standards, and they should be your lifelong role models. At all times, you should be encouraged and confident, and if an idol cannot help and support you spiritually and in faith for a long time, it is not an idol.
Idols, as they should be.
