In this era of change, those stubborn traditional ideas are being strongly criticized and abandoned! The mentality of male superiority, which has long been deeply affected by gender discrimination, is facing unprecedented scrutiny and challenges.
Those vulnerable groups who were once suppressed and deprived of their rights have also begun to stand up bravely to defend their dignity.
It is under the impetus of such a wave of social progress that Ms. Zhang Guimei, with her firm belief and selfless dedication, has opened a door to the temple of knowledge for those girls living in poverty.
She has consistently advocated that education is a fundamental right for everyone and should not be differentiated on the basis of gender.
Regrettably, in the eyes of some, Ms. Zhang's efforts have been misinterpreted as "deviant". One day, Li Xinye, who claimed to be an outstanding graduate of Tsinghua University, made a ridiculous remark in public.
He was full of arrogance and declared that "women are born to stay at home with their husbands and children, and studying is just a waste of time for them!" What's even worse is that he even made personal attacks on Ms. Zhang Guimei, maliciously slandering her for not having children all her life, and "cutting off children and grandchildren", so he vigorously advocated that women should not easily enter the palace of marriage.
In the face of this extremely absurd "theory of the uselessness of women", the majority of netizens have stood up one after another, pointed out the errors in their remarks, and severely criticized and refuted them. However, Li Xinye seems to be unaware of this, and his remarks have seriously deviated from the trend of the development of the times and challenged the mainstream values of society.
In the end, under the pressure of public opinion, this bombastic "scholar" had to log out of his social media account gloomily, and all the hustle and bustle calmed down. His remarks were like an insignificant speck of dust, quickly crushed by the giant wheel of the times, and disappeared without a trace.
When we see that the "scholar" who used to be talkative and empty-eyed is now full of vicissitudes, we can't help but feel a lot of emotion. The power of words is so great that a person's words can not only bring deep harm to others, but also may bring endless pain to oneself.
There is no doubt that Li Xinye is now under unprecedented pressure from the serious consequences of his words and actions. Back in the 60s and 70s of the 20th century, in Huaping County, Yunnan Province, Ms. Zhang Guimei was just an ordinary rural teacher, working in the obscure post of Huaping County Nationalities Middle School.
As an excellent teacher who serves the people and sticks to her post, she has always devoted herself to teaching with full enthusiasm, and often uses her spare time to go deep into students' homes to fully understand each student's family background and learning situation.
However, Zhang Guimei was deeply saddened by the fact that many young girls in Huaping County at the age of 16 or 17 were forced by their parents to leave school and return home to do housework in preparation for their future married life.
Some parents turn a deaf ear to their daughter's education and would rather spend their precious money on their son's extracurricular tutoring than let their daughter continue her education. Zhang Guimei was deeply saddened by the fact that she witnessed these heart-wrenching realities, which inspired her to create a special girls' high school for local girls to ensure that they could enjoy equal access to education.
At that time, the idea of preference for sons over daughters was deeply rooted in Huaping County. Some die-hard parents firmly believe that when their daughters reach marriageable age, no matter how hard they try to study, it will be in vain, and it is better to stay at home and learn some practical life skills in order to become a good wife and mother in the future.
There are even some parents who directly believe that their daughters "suffer a loss" and would rather devote all their limited family resources to their son's education.
In the face of such a severe challenge, Zhang Guimei did not back down because of this, on the contrary, she strengthened her belief. She vowed to use the magic key of education to light the way forward for girls who had been forgotten by society's bad habits, and to help them open the door to freedom.
We can imagine that for an ordinary rural teacher, the establishment of a girls' secondary school is undoubtedly a difficult task. It requires not only sufficient capital as start-up capital, but also strong faith and determination to be able to overcome many difficulties and ultimately succeed.
However, Zhang Guimei is such a brave and resilient woman, with her enthusiasm for education and deep love for girls, she has resolutely embarked on this path of change full of challenges and opportunities.
In order to turn the lofty ideal of establishing a girls' high school into a reality, the problems and challenges that need to be solved are endless, and Ms. Zhang Guimei has done her best and paid countless hard work and sweat.
She has always maintained her passion for education, tirelessly promoting her ideas and ideas to people from all walks of life, and longing for everyone's understanding and support, so as to raise sufficient funds for the establishment of this girls' high school.
The cruelty of reality is far beyond her expectations. Some dismissed her idea, arguing that schools for girls were sexist and contrary to the principles of equity in education.
What's more, directly accusing her of being a "beggar" is wasting precious social resources.
In the face of such tremendous pressure and doubts, Ms. Zhang Guimei's heart almost collapsed. She clenched her fists and scanned her surroundings steadfastly, as if searching for the faint glimmer of hope.
Yes, she knows how much responsibility she has to bear, not just for the future of girls and for a revolution that aims to change stereotypes.
After an in-depth understanding, the reporter was deeply moved by Ms. Zhang Guimei's story and immediately published a report about her deeds in the newspaper.
It is with the strong influence of the media that Ms. Zhang Guimei has successfully attracted the attention of people across the country. With a steady stream of donations pouring in from all directions, she was able to save enough money to start a girls' high school and get an education for those underprivileged girls.
The hardships and hardships of this journey are beyond words. Ms. Zhang Guimei once mentioned in her memoirs that in the most difficult moments, she was even maliciously slandered by some ignorant people and called "beggars".
However, she never gave up, knowing full well that she was shouldering the high expectations of many girls.
It is this firm belief that has finally achieved miracles in the field of education. Although Huaping Girls' High School was successfully established under many difficulties, the subsequent operation process was also full of challenges and tests.
In the face of all kinds of severe tests, Zhang Guimei and several other teachers did not retreat because of this, but moved forward bravely and with high morale. Despite their personal fatigue, they vowed to do their best to impart knowledge, extending their teaching hours every day, and even arranging extra tutoring classes at night, determined to arouse every girl's thirst for knowledge with enthusiasm.
On campus, the girls witnessed the hard work of the teachers and cherished the hard-won learning opportunities even more. Many students choose to stay in school after school to study on their own, making full use of their spare time to ask teachers for difficult questions.
It is precisely under the concerted efforts of teachers and students that a diligent and enterprising learning atmosphere has gradually permeated the campus.
Whenever she sees batches of girls changing their fate with knowledge and walking out of the mountains, Zhang Guimei will feel an incomparable sense of accomplishment in her heart. There is no doubt that this is what she has always pursued, and she does not hesitate to dedicate her youth to this great cause.
Although Huaping Girls' High School has achieved remarkable results, the doubts from the outside world have never stopped.
Some believe that the mere establishment of schools for girls is itself a form of gender discrimination, which is no different from patriarchal stereotypes.
Zhang Guimei knows that it is not easy to change the ingrained old beliefs, and it will take a long and difficult process. It is difficult to shake this mountain by individual strength, and it requires the participation and efforts of people of insight.
So, in the face of all kinds of criticism, she chose to remain silent and devote herself to the great cause of running a school.
Skeptics of his character are now forced to remain silent, to reflect on themselves and to absorb the infinite power exuded by this exemplar of excellence.
There is no doubt that putting it into practice is better than empty words. With her firm belief and perseverance for more than 30 years, Zhang Guimei vividly interprets a teacher's loyalty to his career and his deep love for students.
She is like a beacon that illuminates the future, guiding the way forward for countless girls who are striving to move forward.
