Li Xueqin's high school classmates exploded, what happened to those top students in the top class after 10 years? 

Text | Rice grain mother

Yesterday, my girlfriend forwarded me a video, which was very interesting. I think you've probably all seen it. One vlogger had the ingenuity of posting a group photo of his high school on the wall and meeting whoever he hit with a dart.

In this way, he released a series of videos of "Blind Box for High School Classmates", which became popular all of a sudden.

His high school class is the legendary top class. Their class has also passed the provincial liberal arts and provincial science champions of that year, and the second-to-last girl in the class was admitted to South China University of Technology, and almost all of them were admitted to the 985 school.

Peking University talented female stand-up comedian Li Xueqin is also his classmate.

This kind of super lineup of top students will always give people all kinds of reverie. Each of them is a "child of someone else", like a handful of seeds sown, scattered everywhere, and 10 years later bloomed all kinds of flowers.

But what happened to the children who were admitted to prestigious schools that year? Rice grain mother feels that this is a topic that many parents are very concerned about. So I patiently finished watching the video and sorted out this article.

Become a better person

The deepest impression of Mi Li's mother is Wei classmate, who has achieved wealth freedom and become a financial private equity boss.

He was among the top ten in the province in the college entrance examination that year, and after completing his studies in economics and finance at the University of Hong Kong, he successfully entered a private equity company.

In the past ten years, I have walked through large and small cities, experienced the glory of the stock market, and experienced the turbulence of the stock market, relying on the stepping stone won by the college entrance examination, and now I have achieved the wealth freedom that most people dream of.

Speaking a thick Northeast dialect, but it is a real "wolf of Wall Street".

I thought that the elite financial man was in a suit and tie, shaking a red wine glass. But as soon as I saw Wei, I was still the same super down-to-earth and wearing T-shirt and shorts.

Driving Maserati Geberi, he has hundreds of millions of dollars a day, but the Buddhist system is relaxed as if there is no pressure at all.

He said that this car was only seen when he played QQ to grab a parking space when he was a child, and he thought: "When can I drive this car too?" ”

I looked at the unattainable things as a child, and now I bought them myself. He had only one emotion:

"It's good to learn."

He said that the most beneficial thing is to study hard. Because that's the only stepping stone.

Among all the people in Xueba's class, Wei should be the closest sample to what we think of as "other people's children".

He really benefited from studying well, achieved wealth freedom early, and lived a life that many people can't achieve in their lifetimes.

This made Rice Grain's mother think of the story of Rice Grain's father's classmates.

Dad told me a lot of stories about his friends and classmates.

There is one who grew up in rural Hubei, caught all kinds of fish and shrimp and caught frogs when he was a child (it was simply the sense of déjà vu of Grandpa Mi when he was a child), and later was admitted to Fudan, and is now a very successful investor, single-handedly promoting many famous acquisitions;

We also have a neighbor, from rural Shanxi, who looks very thick and honest, who was admitted to the finance department of the National People's University that year, and went to the fund industry to do private equity after graduation.

Now it has become a domestic financial boss who turns his hands into clouds and turns his hands into rain.

These people are really grateful for the study, for the college entrance examination. Fighting against the heavens and changing their lives here, so those who struggle, persistence, and perseverance all see meaning in them.

Buddhist life

In this top student class, not everyone has become a big man like Wei. More people, scattered among the masses, had to rummage carefully to see their traces.

Sister Wei is such a being.

She was the third student in this class to be admitted to Peking University, and she gave up her qualification for the Baojian Institute of Peking University and applied to enlist in a frigate detachment of the Navy stationed in Ningning.

Unexpectedly, the heroic female warrior who was heroic in everyone's memory was the first to become a mother and brought a baby full-time.

Sister Wei resigned from the system and wanted to focus on her family. This is actually not in line with everyone's psychological expectations for talented women at Peking University. The character of a full-time mother can also be done without taking the Peking University exam, it seems that the previous efforts have been in vain, killing chickens with a cow knife.

But Sister Wei said:

"Just because you graduated from Peking University, you have to climb the peak, right?"

For Sister Wei, three years of high school have sharpened her into a very obedient person. She still has frequent nightmares about the atmosphere of shouting slogans in high school, and she doesn't want her children to experience it again.

Now she's back in the workforce, starting as a trainee lawyer at a law firm. With her ability to learn, becoming a good barrister in the future is not a problem at all.

But Sister Wei said a sentence that poked the rice grain mother, she said, if I hadn't suppressed myself so much in high school, would I have had a worse life than I am now? I didn't dare to think about it, didn't dare to think deeply.

There are different versions of life, the self who has struggled hard may get the result because of this, or the experience of struggle may be just a part of life.

Yang Lan said:

"Some people will ask, after a girl has studied for so long and read so many books, after all, she still has to go back to an ordinary city, work an ordinary job, marry a woman, do laundry and cooking, and teach her husband and children, why bother?"

Presumably, Sister Wei has also been constantly asked this sentence along the way, and she must continue to explain it to everyone. And when she was asked again and again, and looked back at those depressing times again and again, it seemed that she really couldn't find the right answer.

In contrast, Ashu lives much more comfortably.

She was one of the most difficult classmates to contact. When the UP owner met with her, she said that she had not opened the function of Moments at all, and she could not see and pay attention to Moments.

High school reunions, she never attended. Moments has only posted photos of herself getting her license, and no one knows what she is doing after graduation.

When asked about this meeting, she faced the shame of her youth: I think you all did too well in the test! I'm so jealous of you guys, I feel ashamed of me in high school.

Her ideal university was the National People's Congress, but she didn't get in. After saying goodbye to the stressful high school class, she suddenly found a self-consistent way of the Buddhist department.

Live steadily every day, go to bed at ten o'clock, be a middle school teacher, work steadily, happy and sweet.

Her skin is really good, she "giggles", and she looks like she has enough sleep and a high sense of happiness.

She doesn't even look at the circle of friends, and naturally she doesn't have to explain to anyone why she lives this life. In the words of the UP Lord:

"Why are you so late? You are like a character in Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Source". ”

Ashu just smiled and filled the screen with happiness. When she talks about her future aspirations, she says:

"I just hope I am good with my brother (husband)."

So what is happiness? Is it to become the "wolf of Wall Street" of wealth and freedom, or to turn a deaf ear to the outside of the window and focus on living a small life?

Rice grain mother feels that being able to truly be consistent without screwing is happiness.

Nine times out of ten, it backfires

Xiao Rui, who is directly a graduate of Peking University Law School, has been studying for ten years. He was the longest-serving student in the class.

Ten years ago, he was a good student of the same standard in his class, calm and steady. Ten years later, he was a little different.

Once Xiao Rui hoped to graduate with a doctorate and become a teacher soon, but later he found that his characteristics did not match the teaching profession, and it would be very uncomfortable if he forced himself.

Seeing that everyone has a stable job, gets married and has a baby, and saves money to buy a house, Xiao Rui was also very anxious.

However, Xiao Rui feels that he cannot accept such a life at present, and what he currently expects is freedom.

When he was almost 30 years old, Xiao Rui felt that he had entered adolescence and suddenly began to rebel. Adolescence late is better than no puberty at all.

He got tattoos, wore gold chains, and pulled the UP master to do manicures. Therefore, the UP Lord finally sighed and said that the most brilliant experience in this life should always be related to himself.

And the first love girlfriend who the UP owner dared not see the most has been trapped in place and more and more unhappy.

She felt that many things were beyond her control, and she was confused and did not know what she really wanted in life.

Recalling the college entrance examination, at that time, her score was enough to enter the NPC, but she chose the University by mistake. That "maybe it would have been better" regret still affects her and her mother's lives today.

In high school, they only dated for half a year, and chose to separate because their grades plummeted. After graduating from the University of International Business and Economics with a master's degree, she joined an Internet company for four years and recently jumped ship.

Her mother, who accompanied her all the way to the college entrance examination, sometimes counted what she did right and wrong at that time.

In her heart, she always had the simplest thought: "My daughter should be better, is it that I haven't done anything." ”

In the life stories of everyone in this class, the only thing that Mother Migrain has seen is she who is distressed.

At this time, I realized that what kind of life are those children who have been admitted to good schools living now, which is considered "good life"? Is it success or good years? Neither, happiness is feeling that you are doing well.

There is no model in life, and those cow babies with the blessing of the "aura of learning tyrants" will also become whose parents will also become a grain of sand in the rolling red dust.

Their lives ten years from now are different, but they all have to keep moving forward and can't look back.

In the finale of the previous hit TV series "The Long Season", Wang Xiang, a truck driver played by Fan Wei, collapsed in a cornfield he passed every time he drove a train when he was young.

His soul returned to his youth, and when he saw himself driving the train, his younger self said to him:

"What to see? Go ahead! ”

This scene made the rice grain mother feel numb in the scalp, and Wang Xiang, who had been trapped in her son's death for more than ten years, finally understood at the last moment of his life that people have to move forward after all.

The high-pressure study of three years in high school has undoubtedly given each of them a top-level learning ability. But to really learn to unload the heavy spiritual shackles and unload the layers of entanglements of gain and loss, you still have to rely on yourself.

Even if she is a full-time mother like Sister Wei, when she wants to leave, she can quickly gain a foothold in the workplace through her strong learning ability and adaptability.

And those children who have a stepping stone, like a passport to life, always have more choices.

Just look forward and you can reach happiness. Because of the successful admission ticket, they have already obtained it through hard work.

If given another choice, Rice Mother believes they will still do their best in three years of high school. Because this is the only chance to rush out of the eighteenth-tier city.

They may be people at the top of the pyramid, or they may just be passers-by. But after fighting, you can not regret it.
