It is shocking and unacceptable! Mr. Xu Siyuan, a well-known Chinese economist and also known as a "master of academic circles," has openly criticized China's excellent traditional culture and ethical values that have been passed down for thousands of years as "worthless," and praised the American-style "democratic spirit" as a "dazzling intellectual treasure."
As soon as these remarks came out, the whole world was in an uproar, and people shook their heads and sighed, unbelievable that this scholar, who had worked hard in the motherland, would publish such a view that reversed black and white and confused right and wrong.
Let's turn the time back to that special moment in 2018, Xu Siyuan, with his lover and children, crossed the ocean, and finally arrived at the ideal country he had longed for - the United States.
When he stood on the land of a foreign land, he was very excited in his heart, and said affectionately to his wife beside him: "My dear, we have finally arrived in this free and democratic country, and from now on, we will open a new chapter in our lives!" However, the wife looked at her husband's expectant eyes, but there was an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart, and she deeply felt that things were not as good as she imagined.
As expected, after only living in the United States for just one year, Xu Siyuan publicly stated on social media: "My child will never learn Chinese, let alone understand China's outdated culture, he will only regard himself as a 100% American and proudly proud of his identity!" This statement immediately caused an uproar on the Internet, and many netizens angrily denounced him as a "traitor" and a member of the "fifth column".
In the face of such surging public opinion pressure, Xu Siyuan was still not afraid, he shouted at the camera: "In this great country, everyone should enjoy freedom of speech, and no one can stop me!" Seeing that her husband is so obsessed with the United States, the wife can only cry silently, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Time flies, time flies, let us go back to the days more than ten years ago, when Xu Siyuan was undoubtedly a shining star in the field of domestic economics, he worked at Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, and everyone on campus knew and knew it.
At the beginning of Professor Xu's economics course, the classroom was always full, and the students listened eagerly to the story of this knowledgeable scholar, and even students from other faculties came to fill the classroom just to catch a glimpse of this academic giant.
Professor Xu Siyuan's unique teaching method makes him unique in the field of education, which is very different from the monotonous and boring theoretical indoctrination of other professors. He is good at combining the real situation, skillfully integrating complex and esoteric economic principles into the practice of economic development in the mainland, analyzing and interpreting them in an easy-to-understand and vivid way, and leading students to apply the knowledge they have learned to practical life.
What is even more admirable is that he often trekked through mountains and rivers to the poorest and most backward areas of the mainland to conduct field investigations and explore the most primitive and traditional economic forms there.
It is precisely because of his firm belief and unremitting efforts in his career that Professor Xu Siyuan has made outstanding achievements in the academic field. At that time, he was dressed in a simple robe and holding a notebook, strolling side by side with the local villagers among the fields of birds and flowers, or sitting side by side by the green pond.
At home, Professor Xu Siyuan's wife is also a hard-working and capable housewife, virtuous and generous, and highly praises her husband's career achievements. Every time she sees her husband put his heart and soul into his work, she feels incredibly proud.
When Professor Xu Siyuan once expressed his desire to immigrate to the United States, his wife resolutely stopped him and advised him earnestly: "You are an outstanding talent cultivated by the motherland, and now that your career has been successful, why are you so obsessed with foreign countries? Our roots are here, and we must never forget them." ”
However, at some point, Professor Xu Siyuan began to grow tired of studying China's economic model. His love for traditional Chinese culture has gradually disappeared, and he has developed a strong yearning and obsession with the so-called "democracy and freedom" in the West.
This shift was first reflected in his classroom teaching. He began to vigorously promote the American system of separation of powers and the spirit of the social contract in his classes, trying to forcibly instill this Westernized idea into his students.
Whenever a student courageously raised objections against his views, Professor Xu Siyuan always behaved arrogantly and domineeringly, refuting with a condescending posture, completely ignoring the freedom of speech of others.
Colleagues in the same profession were deeply worried about this and came forward to dissuade them, but to no avail.
In the attention and voices of others, Xu Siyuan has always remained firm and has never changed his thoughts. As early as 2008, he had a strong desire to immigrate to the United States, but unfortunately, the United States was in the midst of a severe financial crisis and the economic situation was in turmoil, so his ideal plan had to be put on hold for the time being.
In the following ten years, Xu Siyuan never stopped thinking deeply about this dream. On the one hand, he enjoys the generous salary and benefits of teachers in China, and on the other hand, he vigorously promotes his extremist ideas in various public places.
Finally, in 2018, Xu Siyuan firmly believed that the time was ripe, and he resolutely submitted a request to his wife to sell his property and immigrate to the United States with his family. As a housewife who silently supports her husband, although her heart is full of endless reluctance, in order to create a complete family environment for her children and maintain this imperfect marriage relationship, she finally chooses a difficult compromise.
Life after immigrating to the United States has brought a series of heavy blows to Xu Siyuan.
As an economics professor who has made certain achievements in China, Xu Siyuan originally thought that with his educational background and academic achievements, he would be able to get the respect and recognition he deserved in a developed country like the United States, and then find a decent career.
However, the harsh reality poured cold water on him.
Many institutions of higher learning and well-known enterprises turned a blind eye to Xu Siyuan's achievements and closed their doors to him, an immigrant. What's worse is that when American entrepreneurs learned that he had publicly made extreme remarks slandering the motherland, their trust in him instantly dropped to a freezing point, and no one dared to hire him as a "traitor".
The inability to find decent work and the cut off of sources of income have undoubtedly become the primary dilemma Xu Siyuan faces in a foreign country. The family's livelihood is all on his shoulders, and it is not a long-term solution after all.
Therefore, this university professor who had infinite glory in the past had no choice but to lower his noble head and devote himself to the heavy labor at the bottom of society.
Xu Siyuan wore a uniform, a helmet, and a motorcycle, providing courier services and errands for the American people on the streets and alleys. However, this barely enough life didn't last long, and soon his expensive motorcycle was stolen.
Faced with a difficult situation, Xu Siyuan bravely changed careers and became a taxi driver. Yet, despite the fact that taxi driver is an ordinary profession in the developed world, he is repeatedly treated coldly and harshly ridiculed by white passengers.
Some passengers even deliberately underestimate the fare, and their attitude is extremely arrogant and rude.
Subsequently, Xu Siyuan resolutely decided to join the team of cleaning workers, but in the process of work, due to operational errors, he was severely reprimanded by his employer, and he was in agony, paralyzed in bed for several months, and did not even get the salary he deserved.
At the same time, another Chinese seafarer named Ding Yiduo experienced a similar fate. He has worked in a large shipping company in China, frequently sailing with ships to major ports in the United States, and has an in-depth understanding of the living environment and humanistic features of American society.
Although the income in the shipping company is quite lucrative and the job is relatively decent, Ding Yiduo has always been dissatisfied with the status quo deep down. In his view, the United States is the paradise for realizing his dreams, and as long as he arrives there, he will definitely be able to obtain a higher social status and life realm.
During the Trump administration, Ding Yiduo took advantage of his position to illegally sneak into a port in the United States, and since then he has settled down on this land and has not returned. The family was worried about this, but Ding Yiduo didn't care.
He once promised his sister that he would make great achievements in the United States, and maybe one day he would become a member of the United States Congress.
However, ideals can only stay in fantasy after all. The cruelty of reality far exceeded Ding Yiduo's expectations. As an illegal immigrant, he was denied legal employment and quickly fell from decent seafaring jobs to the bottom of American society, living a life of elaboration.
In order to support his family, Ding Yiduo had to take the initiative to contact some pharmaceutical R&D institutions, begging them to try some new drugs with him as a test subject. From here, it can be seen that he has fallen into a desperate situation and has to gamble as a "guinea pig" in a desperate way, gambling with his life.
During this period, Mr. Ding Yiduo frequently made remarks on his personal social media platform praising the American political system and spirit, and went all out to seek to arouse the attention of local government officials.
However, despite the frequency of his voice, as an insignificant figure, his appeal never reached the ears of those at the top.
Such days are repeated day after day, and Mr. Ding Yiduo's life is still difficult. Faced with difficulties, he had to reach out to relatives and friends back home to help. Whenever a loved one complained, he would become angry, lose control of his words, and pour out all his anger and frustration on them, showing a state of extreme confusion and fear.
The family is the basic unit of society, whereas the state is made up of an infinite number of families. It is precisely because of the blessing and nourishment of the motherland that each and every one of our Chinese sons and daughters can enjoy the dignity and space for development as human beings.
However, people like Xu Siyuan and Ding Yiduo often take the country's favor for granted, maliciously slander and betray them, and try in vain to break free from what they consider to be "shackles", without realizing that they are actually people who are imprisoned by the indestructible shackles.
Xu Siyuan was originally a scholar who lived through poverty and backwardness and eventually succeeded in changing his fate, but now he has degraded China's traditional culture and values to worthless.
He was almost obsessed with the pursuit of America, but when he actually set foot on that land, the laws and realities of life in the United States made him feel like he was in a nightmare.
As a pure Chinese, he has always endured discrimination and injustice from white people in the United States. Whether it's a job as a food delivery man, taxi driver, or cleaner, he has experienced endless hardships.
In contrast, Ding Yiduo's story is even more bizarre. In order to realize his unattainable American dream, he did not hesitate to take the risk of smuggling into the United States, and in the end he was only destitute and became a low-level laborer in the United States.
Extremely poor, he could only beg from relatives and friends, and when he was refused, he would speak ill of him, and he looked like he was crazy.
The lessons of history are just around the corner, and the lessons are profound and clear. Xu Siyuan, Ding Yiduo and others are precisely those who are confused and bewitched by the ethereal "democracy and freedom" of the West. They wantonly slander and betray the motherland, and in the end they lose nothing more than their own future and dignity.
As the descendants of the Chinese nation, we have the responsibility to cherish the current living environment, and we must not blindly worship those illusory tricks of foreign countries!
