Chapter 12 Part D (Part 18-Part 22)

New ideas are not enough.To find the most suitable life path for a struggler, he still needs expert guidance and design, as well as reasonable persistence and abandonment. Dalian's Helen Keller Bill Gates in Hangzhou Luoshan's choice of studying abroad Joe Mai's second degree Such a youthful song Case Tips: Min Min, female, a student at the English College of Dalian University.She suffers from severe eye disease and her vision is only 0.02.But she was not willing to be at the mercy of fate and dreamed of studying abroad. For this reason, she came to New Oriental to study TOEFL and scored 550 points in the mock test.Teacher Xu was surprised, but also very moved.

But Teacher Xu objected to her going abroad. Is there any reason for Teacher Xu's objection? In the early spring of 2000, I went to the New Oriental Xiangshan Accommodation Department to give lectures.After it was over, a girl came up to me.Her image is very special, with yellow hair, fair skin, and thin eyes.I wondered when the foreign teacher came to the mountain, why didn't I know?I didn't expect her to speak to me in Northeast Mandarin.After listening to her introduction, my heart ached. Min Min is a student of Dalian University English College.She was born with an incurable disease: amblyopia.Her eyes, unable to see the largest letter on the eye chart, are only 0.02 degrees, and she can only take care of simple daily life by herself.In China's Law on the Protection of Disabled Persons, they are legally blind.The most frightening thing is that no matter what method is used, her vision cannot be corrected.Min Min's illness was born, a fact that cannot be accepted and must be accepted.In the dark world, she used her last remaining vision to fight against fate.After years of struggle, Min Min still refuses to admit the cruelty of fate.She has no money, no relationships, no vision.What else does she have?She has a dream.

She looked at Xiwei's blue sky in Xiwei's morning light, and fantasized about Xiwei's chances in life.In her mind, at some point, a gap in the sky opened, and a ray of light shot in: she thought of the way of studying abroad.So I came to New Oriental to read TOEFL.The results of her years of learning English were revealed in the class: in the mock exam, she was able to score more than 550 points.As far as English ability is concerned, she already has the conditions to study abroad.But, can Min Min go abroad like this?Should Min Min go abroad with his appearance?Is going abroad the best choice for Min Min?I fell into stern thought.

She said, "Mr. Xu, do you think I can go abroad with my appearance?" She kept her eyes on me as she spoke.Even though I knew she couldn't see my facial expression, I still gritted my teeth and held back the tears.My fists are clenched tightly. I don't know who I want to fight! I said in my heart: "You want to go abroad, you are really crazy! How can you go abroad! How can you go abroad!" Of course Min Min's hearing is very good, and she must have compensatory supernormal functions.Of course she recognized the language in my silence at once.She stood there without speaking, her chest heaving violently.I knew that her psychological defenses were collapsing.I also know that I will not let her collapse.

I said: "Min Min, I don't think you should take the road of studying abroad. Completely forget about this matter. The Long March is great, but when the Red Army set off from Jinggangshan, after all, they left all the wounded in the Soviet area. Your eyesight is so poor, living abroad What to do? There are not so many people abroad who can take care of you by your side every day. And I don’t know why the visa officer will give you a visa to let you go.” After all, people with normal vision have many unbearable physical and mental health problems Mental pressure, if Min Min went out like this, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

Min Min is just one of countless typical examples who came to New Oriental to "struggle" when they should never have gone abroad.How many people with good eyesight have been blinded, lost their way, made a wrong turn on the issue of studying abroad, fallen into the trap of so-called "struggle", and rushed towards the oil lamp of so-called "pursuit". I don't blame the students, and I don't blame myself.After all, I cannot bring personalized guidance to people in every corner of the planet at New Oriental Consulting, although we have been working hard in this direction.Strugglers must pay attention to how to design a clear and feasible goal for themselves, just like investing in stocks, the choice of stocks determines the success or failure of your investment.What life goal to choose is not the same, or even more important.Sadly, how many young people are running wildly in the dark, thinking that they are going in the direction of light, but in fact, they have walked into eternal darkness.

Facing Min Min, I pondered sternly.After thinking about it, I said to her: "Min Min, I suggest you go back to your Dalian immediately, and I will refund your registration fee to you. Don't think about studying abroad, give up the idea of ​​going abroad completely. Go back to Dalian and look for your way out. "How do you find your way out when you go back to Dalian? You are learning English, aren't you? That's fine. If you want to avoid working as a blind massager for the rest of your life, you should study your English well and try to master this last or even the only Opportunity, out of the dark night of life.

"Learning English, while using your limited eyesight, try to use some high-tech means, such as computer recording equipment. On the Internet, there are a lot of English teaching resources available for you to use; countless foreign classics have recorded versions of recitations There have been e-books abroad, which can read all English novels and articles aloud. You can use these suddenly enriched learning methods to push your English ability to the limit in the fastest and most solid way. This is something you can control and can Grasping is therefore a more realistic path of struggle to change destiny.

"Set the goal of your life struggle to be a qualified translator. A qualified translator can have various interpretations, but as a means of your survival, I believe you can definitely do it, even you can do it now You can do text translation first, then dialogue translation, and finally, after reaching a certain level in English, make a breakthrough in the direction of simultaneous translation. Simultaneous translation is of course not easy to learn. But no matter how difficult it is, it is not as dangerous as studying abroad! The level of simultaneous translation is also uneven. The highest is Du Zihua, the vice president, and the lowest is Xu Xiaoping (Du Zihua can start to translate from the third word of the other party, but Xu can only speak at the last three words of the other party), you As long as it reaches the lowest level, it is already a miracle! It is equivalent to the Red Army breaking through the natural barrier Lazikou and arriving at Yan'an, the holy land of revolution! Congratulations! Warm congratulations!

"If this is the case, your life in the next few years will be very fulfilling. In the process of learning English, you can translate some small articles and contribute to make money. There is a huge demand for such articles in domestic newspapers and magazines. Dalian is an open city with a developed economy , There must be a lot of factories and enterprises that need text translation. Try to find some translation jobs. Not only can you support yourself, but you can also be an activist who contributes to China's economic miracle. If you really gain a reputation for translation, you can hire other translators to join , set up Minmin Translation Agency. You will be successful! --What is success for you? In fact, it is just to support yourself with dignity, and even to support others by creating job opportunities. Although it also includes exploitation, it is already It is an extraordinary and indomitable success.

"Within five or six years, you will definitely reach this level of success. At that time, if you can really do a basically qualified translation, don't say the same voice, even if you lose your voice. At the Dalian International Fashion Festival, let Mayor Bo Xilai grandly launched you and translated for him. Of course, he will copy his speech to you in advance. As soon as it is broadcast on TV, you will immediately become the pride of Dalian people and the symbol of Dalian city! Immediately! It will open the windows of the hearts of all people with eyes and without eyes in the country, and become a symbol of our era of struggle!" Actually, the prospect I described is not excessive at all.that is the truth.I still don’t know what else Zhang Haidi has done besides translating a 100,000-word book.But the image of her singing and dancing in a wheelchair still makes me deeply moved: not to sigh for fate, but to dare to fight against misfortune, it is really the greatest spiritual power of our nation, and it is the greatest spiritual force of all people including myself. People need role models to learn from. Min Min, if she can become a role model for the people of the whole country, it is not because she has done any supernatural things, but because she has found a path suitable for her development and embarked on a future. highway.That's all. This is the life path I designed for Min Min. I admit that this is the private highway I have specified for her.Can Min Min become an English translator?In fact, when Min Min "heard" me for the first time, she had already mastered English through self-study, and she was already a translator.What Min Min has to do is to continue to work hard on the road of English learning, from quantitative change to qualitative change, to continuously improve his gold content as a "translator", and finally become the pure gold in the field of translation.If one day, objective factors (such as complete blindness) make Min Min's English only at a certain level, at least, she can also be an 18K gold translator and still have a shining value.In fact, if Min Min is really completely blind—God bless her not—maybe it will be more motivating for her to break the boat and fulfill her century-long wish of being a master interpreter, making her the Helen Keller of Dalian. Everyone can be Min Min, including friends with 2.0 eyesight. Case Tips: Sun Xiaoguang, graduated from Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Engineering.Because he was dissatisfied with this school, Sun Xiaoguang's father planned to let him drop out of school and go to the United States in the first semester of enrollment.Teacher Xu dispelled his idea of ​​letting his son transfer to a foreign country, and carefully formulated a four-year plan for Sun Xiaoguang. During the four years, Sun Xiaoguang acted according to the plan, and everything went smoothly. When he graduated, he actually received admission notices from two universities in the United States.At this time, Sun Xiaoguang firmly refused to go abroad, and he got the support of Mr. Xu.Let's see how Sun Xiaoguang's father deals with Xu Xiaoping, who is rebellious! Bill Gates in Hangzhou is called Sun Xiaoguang.Sun Xiaoguang's father is a magistrate.Local officials ruled over 2.5 million people, and Sun Xiaoguang, the only son. Sun Xiaoguang and I are considered to be from the same hometown, and his father used to be the parent officer in my hometown.So, when his father asked someone to find me for his son's future study abroad, I was flattered for the first time.It seems that it is not Sun Xiaoguang who seeks help, but my old man who consults the master.My parents have been retired for 30 years, and there is no need to seek him for a job or anything, but I, who have always respected the leaders, still received Secretary Sun from my hometown like a grandson. You can say it's my virtue, you can also say it's my ugliness.I will not express it here, but only talk about the thunderous and thrilling life path I designed for Sun Xiaoguang. Sun Xiaoguang failed in the college entrance examination and entered Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Technology Engineering.This made his father Sun Shuji very disappointed.Secretary Sun's son was supposed to go to Peking University and Tsinghua University but failed, which made Secretary Sun really embarrassed. So Secretary Sun moved his son to transfer to the United States when he was just in the first semester of school.This is the context in which they found me. I have always been opposed to the transfer of undergraduates to the United States.The reason why I oppose transferring schools is ideological first: because I don’t think there is any need to evade China’s undergraduate education. After all, outstanding sons born in China, such as myself, were trained in Chinese universities.We need to go to the West to study, but if the basic knowledge and world view are not formed in China, a very important part of life will be missing. My second argument against undergraduate transfers is technical and is visa risk.The refusal rate of transfer visas has always been relatively high.A student struggled for a year and two years, and finally got admitted to an American university, but was ruthlessly sent back at the visa window. This was a devastating blow to the student's body and mind.Because in the process of transferring to another school, he has already announced with his actions that he is unwilling to join forces with his classmates, and he has publicly alienated himself from the people around him, making himself a dissident in the eyes of his classmates.From painstaking efforts to being rejected at the end, people will not condemn the ruthlessness of the visa officer, but only laugh at the applicant's misfortune.This is also human nature.As a result, those children who failed to transfer to another school could not go to the United States, and they could not sleep well when they returned to their original dormitory. They became the first batch of stranded people in the wave of studying abroad. These are my two reasons against transferring undergraduates to the US.If one day American visas are guaranteed, educational exchanges between China and the United States become more free, and the management of Chinese college students' enrollment becomes more relaxed, maybe my point of view will change.This is the future. Based on the above reasons, as soon as I heard Secretary Sun's plan, I immediately expressed my opposition.It doesn't matter whether he is the parent officer of my parents or not.I stated my general opinion, and finally said: "Besides, as a good cadre, your family has no savings for your child to study abroad. Sending your child abroad in this way is simply killing a chicken to get its eggs." Secretary Sun was not willing to give up sending his son to study abroad in advance He said: "The economy is not a problem. I have a classmate in the United States and I am willing to support him." I said: "Impossible, there is no such good thing in the world!" He said: "It is true. That’s true! He opened a restaurant in this city, and he has bought rubber gloves for the children, so they can work when they come!” “Rubber gloves? What do rubber gloves have to do with work?” I asked knowingly and cunningly. "Dishwashing, this is a restaurant." Secretary Sun explained. I said: "This is not subsidy, this is self-help! This is to ask Sun Xiaoguang to work to support himself. In the United States, there is no free lunch. Look, Sun Xiaoguang has not gone yet, and has already started a small job as a dishwashing worker. Secretary Sun, torture There are many ways for my son, why give this happiness to others!" I hit the iron hot, and then said: "Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Engineering is a good school. Chinese universities are uniformly formulated by the Ministry of Education, and the quality is good. Sun Xiaoguang’s is a computer. Before the computer, everyone is equal. Tsinghua students use Pentium in Tsinghua University, and Sun Xiaoguang also Pentium in Hangzhou. There is no difference in technology. Is there a difference between Tsinghua University and Hangdian? Yes. But the real difference lies in the individual The change in quality will be obvious in the next four years. After all, the students in Tsinghua are well-informed and talented, but this gap can be resolved by coming to New Oriental. You can let Xiaoguang spend the winter and summer vacations every year in the next few years. They all come to New Oriental to attend classes. The best students in the country, including those from Peking University and Tsinghua University, gather here. Soaking with these students, participating, experiencing, and perceiving the pursuit of the spirit and wisdom of China's best young people, after four years, Xiaoguang is equal to He went to another university and got two degrees. I believe his future will not be worse than that of any Tsinghua student! Entrust his future to me, and I can guarantee that he will reach this level. "Before the start of the fourth academic year, Xiaoguang strived to pass the TOEFL and GRE exams. Immediately after the exam, I started to help him apply for studying in the United States. In this way, he went to the United States to study for graduate school in the year he graduated. Are you sure? I will help him apply , if he can't go to Harvard—the people from Hangdian said that going to Harvard is a bit of a mystery—he will definitely be able to enter the top 20 schools in the United States. What are you worried about? You can leave the matter of Xiaoguang to me, you Just concentrate on doing more good things for the people in your hometown!" Speaking of this, I thought to myself: Why should I say that?Why should I kiss his ass?Will a good leader like Secretary Sun be uncomfortable with my fiery face?So I added: "Secretary Sun, I am so concerned about Xiaoguang's future, not because you once served as a parent officer in my hometown, but because of the instinct of an educator. Whether it is a minister's daughter or a farmer's son, as long as you find me, I treat everyone equally, and there is no distinction between teaching and learning. You must not think that I have made a good promise now, and I will not be so active in the future after you step down--I am not looking at you, but your son and my student. "I'm telling the truth. Four years have passed in the blink of an eye.In the past four years, Sun Xiaoguang has carried out my suggestions meticulously. He has come to New Oriental to take classes every winter and summer vacation. Every time he comes to New Oriental, he politely refuses to call me and does not take advantage of his privileges to bother me about anything.When I was giving lectures to students, I often saw this handsome and tall young man sitting under the stage looking at me with ambiguity and admiration, secretly proud of my special relationship with him.He stood out from the crowd.The children in my hometown can grow up like this, which shows that the race there is not bad.Although I don't show a racial advantage myself, it is because of three years of natural disasters and ten years of turmoil.I often feel guilty for myself and for the common people.Therefore, when I saw Sun Xiaoguang, it was like seeing my own child, and I was always very happy.The only shortcoming of this excellent boy is that he is a bit shy and introverted. All told, I probably talked to him three times in those four years.The first time his father came to see me in Beijing.The second time was after the end of the first year, he came to Beijing to attend New Oriental’s winter vacation class. I invited him to dinner and gave him this kind of guidance: I said: “Study computer technology well, but don’t stick to the teacher’s teaching. The place may be relatively closed, the concept may be relatively stupid, and the teacher is still teaching you the keyboard technology before the invention of the mouse. For such things, you must have judgment. Where does the judgment come from? It comes from your love and study of your profession, and Not only from the teacher's teaching. Looking at one's own learning content with a critical eye is the greatest respect for the teacher. "In addition to studying, you must be particularly active in participating in student activities. Participating in student activities determines whether a person will be successful after graduation, at least in a social and commercial sense. When the time is right, run for the chairman of the student union. You Although Dad is not a big official, he can rule 2.5 million people. If you can’t even be the chairman of the student union of 2,500 people, you are not your father’s son. Being the chairman of the student union means social practice, training own management skills and the ability to deal with people. "The above two things must be done well. The next thing is English. However, the focus of learning English must not forget that in addition to the test, there is also the ability to use it. You always have to pay for studying abroad, so test scores are very important. But What is the purpose of studying abroad? You have to consider this question. You are the only child. After studying abroad, you must return to China. If you are not promising, you will find a noble and decent job. Studying abroad is not important at the time. Therefore, I would like to emphasize that your English study plan should pay equal attention to practical ability and examination skills." In the spring of 2001, I received a call from Sun Xiaoguang, who wanted to come to Beijing to "report" to me on his development .Sun Xiaoguang called me personally, which seemed unusual. In the past, he used to get in touch with me through his father.He said he was about to graduate from Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Technology Engineering with excellent grades and fluent spoken English.Moreover, under the personal packaging of Bao Fanyi, the vice president of New Oriental and a master of writing, he was admitted to the computer department of New York University and the University of Southern California.Of these two schools, one ranked tenth and the other eleventh in the ranking list of computer majors.He said he wanted to come to Beijing to ask me about my next step, and asked if I could receive him.After answering the phone, I thought happily and gratifiedly that four years of painstaking efforts have been harvested!His success is the success I designed for him.I don't know what kind of gift he is going to bring me.So I was very excited to wait for him. Unexpectedly, Sun Xiaoguang arrived in Beijing, holding the admission notice from a famous American school in his hand, with infinite pain on his face!Unexpectedly, there was no heavy gift that made me happy, and I didn't even bring a goose feather.It only takes a minute for me to know where Sun Xiaoguang's trouble is.After hearing his pain, my heart was ecstatic. It turned out that Sun Xiaoguang actively participated in student activities when he was in school. At the beginning of the third year, he really participated in the election and defeated nine other candidates in one fell swoop to become the chairman of the student union of Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Engineering.As the chairman of the student union, he actively participated in, carried out, developed and deepened social practice activities, established effective contacts with local enterprises, and even won several network engineering contracts. With the active help and promotion of his thesis advisor—by the way, this teacher is also a respectable teacher who returned to his hometown to teach after obtaining a doctorate from a famous American university—Sun Xiaoguang established a high-tech company.He and his thesis advisor are the legal person and majority shareholder of this high-tech company, but he himself is the general manager.In the name of this company, he took over some engineering contracts.His father also supported him to do some practical work, and through his classmates and friends, he also got some business for him.When Sun Xiaoguang graduated, he not only made a lot of money with his fellow activists in the student union, he also became half a millionaire himself!Earned hundreds of thousands of RMB!At this time, he has not graduated yet!The bizarre story of Sun Xiaoguang hardly seems to be true, but it is certainly not false.I'm literally jealous of him.Now kids!I sigh. I never put student success on my account.But I think Sun Xiaoguang's wealth is what I earned for him.If I hadn't tried my best to prevent him from transferring abroad, if I hadn't encouraged him to participate in social activities and work as a student, there is no doubt that he, who is naturally shy, would not have achieved today's success.Of course, I'm just smug in my heart, feeling a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, and I won't say it.Speaking out, dividends are not easy to handle! I warmly congratulated Sun Xiaoguang, but he seemed very painful: "Mr. Xu, the problem now is that I don't want to study abroad. I want to continue to run my company. Our company's business volume will exceed one million next year. It is absolute." , now I have two orders of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. But my dad firmly opposes my giving up my study abroad plan in the United States this year, and insists that I give up my company and go to the United States. What do you think should be done?" I think this matter should be compared Easy to handle.There is no doubt that I firmly support Sun Xiaoguang to stay and continue to run this company.You must know that among the high-tech giants in the United States, several of them gave up their studies halfway to start their own businesses. Everyone knows that Bill Gates studied at Harvard for two years and saw that the opportunity came, so he stopped studying.McDell, the king of American computer hardware, also dropped out of college in the third year to create Dell Computer.Sun Xiaoguang's chances, if not better than Bill and Mike's, are certainly not worse than Chuanzhi and Yuan Qing's! Ha ha!I cheer, a billionaire is about to be born with my assistance!Maybe in the future he will give me some stock in the name of asking me to give a speech fee!I was passionate and heartbroken: "Xiaoguang, don't worry, your study abroad and future are contracted by me to your father, I think your father will listen to me. I firmly support you to give up this year's enrollment and continue to go back to your company And I suggest that you have a slightly longer-term plan if you want to do it. You don’t have to rush to go abroad next year or next year, so that you are oppressing yourself year after year. Simply put, you go back and work hard on your company and make a five-year plan Let’s talk about earning a seven-figure figure. I will guarantee you to study abroad at any time!” I deeply envy Sun Xiaoguang, and envy that he was born in such a great age.I even hate myself for being born a little earlier, for not being able to catch up with Xiaoguang and the others when they started their own businesses and their dreams came true. Xiaoguang's development is a miracle.But an even more unexpected miracle happened right after-his father didn't even listen to me!Secretary Sun originally knew that his son had plans to stay in China to run a company, and he had already expressed his absolute disapproval, but he was very surprised that the teacher and I would also support him.He specially flew to Beijing to meet me and told me that his son must go to the United States to study. I had an in-depth interview with him in the hotel for two or three hours, trying to convince him why his son had to stay in China instead of going abroad to study.It's a pity that Secretary Sun didn't listen to me at all.He insisted that his son must go.This is something that was agreed four years ago. "Mr. Xu, you can't go back on your word." Secretary Sun didn't give me any convincing reasons for studying abroad.But I know that letting his son study abroad is a part of his social status, social value, face, and parenting philosophy. His attitude is so firm that I even feel that it is already too late for him to agree to my suggestion four years ago to postpone his son's going abroad. Give me a face, I should be grateful to him. With the intervention of my consultation, I have made his son the strongest future pillar on the land of China, and the most promising candidate to become a billionaire in the new round of technological revolution.I even wanted to thank him for not refusing my advice that made his son successful.Really, I really want to thank him -- but not for his son, but for my students. But at this moment, for the first time, I realized that my thoughts were worthless, at least in the eyes of his old man.From his firm rejection of my opinion as the most famous overseas study expert in China, I felt for the first time that the people who ruled 2.5 million people did have their special persistence and stubborn spiritual strength.In the face of Secretary Sun's invincible will, I, the master of life design, finally lost the battle.I felt powerless and sad: his son, a future Bill Gates, was annihilated by his own hands! "Secretary Sun, have you participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation?" I asked suddenly. Secretary Sun was taken aback. I didn't know why I asked this question: "Impossible. I was just born when the Japanese surrendered and the war of liberation began. Is this question related to Xiaoguang?" I smiled apologetically.Because I think Secretary Sun with such a strong will must have killed someone. Studying abroad, studying abroad, how many people are destroying their future in your name!Qian Qian, Qian Qian, how many people are persistently pursuing failure under the guise of you! When Sun Xiaoguang heard that his last ray of hope had been shattered, he let out a mournful cry like the young intellectuals who committed suicide for love during the May Fourth Movement.I advised him not to pay attention to his father, if he didn't go out, he wouldn't go out, could he kidnap you out?He gave me a strange look, and his eyes showed the horror that I was encouraging him to kill his father and Oedipus. Sad!Anti-feudal anti-today, it turns out that in some corners of Chinese society, the degree of independence of Chinese youth is still in the dark years before the May Fourth Movement.The fate of parents and the words of the world are still determining the fate of millions of Chinese youth!Down with Kongjiadian!Liberate the new youth!Chong hindered... Sun Xiaoguang, in a confused state of mind, went for a visa under his father's random command, but was rejected; he went for a visa again, but was rejected again.Every time I take my suggestion as a deaf ear, and make up my own mind to find some acquaintances or relationships.In the end, I angrily declined the request to continue mentoring him, and I have never answered their calls since. I don't know where Sun Xiaoguang went afterwards, and I don't want to know anymore.But I know that Bill Gates in Hangzhou died in this way.No wonder Bill Gates couldn't be born in China--behind every potential Bill Gates, there is a Secretary Sun, using their own outdated and decadent values, to shatter the birth of future geniuses and destroy China's billionaire.In a Chinese society that is not independent in spirit, Chinese youths that are not liberated in personality, and a Chinese nation that is not free in thought, how could it be possible for Bill Gates to come out! Case Tips: Yu Luoshan is a fresh graduate of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1998.He was born in an educational family, and his father was the director of education in a city in the south of the Yangtze River. In the autumn of 1998, when he found Mr. Xu, he was about to graduate and faced a crossroads of life choices. His problem is: he majored in art history, but his interest and aspiration is practical art design, so he plans to go to the United States to study art design for a master's degree after graduation.He asked Mr. Xu whether this way would work.Teacher Xu immediately gave him an affirmative answer. Unexpectedly, "Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway"... Yu Luoshan came to New Oriental Consulting Office to find me, and the secretary refused to let him in when he saw that he didn't have an appointment.Yu Luoshan said enthusiastically and mysteriously: I have a special relationship with Mr. Xu, you will know when you take me to meet him! It was the autumn of 1998, and my "Visa Philosophy" had just been published. In the author profile, there was a background introduction of my graduation from the Central Conservatory of Music.And Yu Luoshan is a student of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. "We are both alumni of the art school! You should give me some special help." This is what he calls a "special relationship."If this is also a special relationship, in fact, I have a special relationship with all the students of New Oriental—we are all alumni of New Oriental. .Throughout our lives, we will face countless moments that require the support of our ancestors and those who have come. If your parents are unable to arrange these supports for you, who do you rely on?There is only one answer, like Yu Luoshan, relying on oneself.Of course, like Yu Luoshan, you must be able to leave a good impression on others with a concise and clear personal style, so that the person you are seeking to meet is willing to develop the interpersonal relationship you need with you. The problem that Yu Luoshan needs me to solve is: he is about to graduate from the Art History Department of Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts, what can students from the Art History Department do?Generally, they are editors, teaching, research, brokerage, business management, etc. in the art field.Due to the underdeveloped education in art management and business operations in China, the main way out for graduates of the Department of Art History is to be teaching and research personnel. They are relatively academic and bookish, and they are far away from the urgent needs of the art market in society. distant.I myself am a graduate of the Music Department of the Central Conservatory of Music. In a sense, Yu Luoshan and I are a major, so I have a personal experience of the problems and Yu Luoshan's troubles. Yu Luoshan told me that he was born in an educational family, and there were people who were quite accomplished in the art field in the family.He himself has a talent for art since he was a child, and he is especially interested in art decoration, that is, practical arts and crafts, and has done many projects and works in this area.But being admitted to the Department of Art History somewhat limited his artistic creativity in this aspect. Although he has not given up his efforts in design in the past few years, he is not from a major after all, and compared with other students, he is slightly inferior.Therefore, he wants to go to the United States to study for a master's degree in art design after graduation, and then return to China to invest in the prosperous and underdeveloped design market in China to win money and honor.At the same time, by the way, it also improves the level of product design in China.His vision of his future was very clear and feasible, and I supported it and told him it was the best option. He told his father what we had talked about.His father was the director of education in a medium-sized city.A few days later, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he came to Beijing to meet me specifically for his son's affairs, and brought some "souvenir products".I think the matter of Yu Luoshan has actually been decided very simply, and it is definitely no problem to follow my opinion.There is no need to meet with father and souvenirs anymore.I see a lot of students every day at New Oriental, and I have been overloaded for several years. If I had another friendly meeting with the father of every student who met me, I would surely die soon.However, I had to see the "local products" brought by Yu Luoshan's father.Because what they used to "express their affection" to me were hairy crabs from Yangcheng Lake, Jiangsu. If they disappeared, the crabs would struggle to death in despair, which I couldn't bear. The crabs brought from Jiangsu stretched out their vicious pincers to threaten me when they saw me. The vitality of the crabs is very strong.But some adults' stereotypes are more Die Hard--stubborn.Father Yu told me straight to the point: He hoped that his son would immediately start preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination at the Central Academy of Fine Arts.Although it is good to study abroad, who will be responsible if the son cannot leave the country next year?He hoped that his son would take a safe path. I asked Father Yu, the highest official in charge of education affairs in cities with millions of people: "Why do you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination?" Father Yu was at a loss for words and couldn't answer this question.Under my questioning, he said: "I want him to take the postgraduate entrance examination. I just want him to have a higher education, to be respected, to be nicer to speak, and to find a job easier. Of course, I hope that he will learn more with real talents." Some. Apparently high education is not a bad thing in China." I said, "I agree, high education is not a bad thing. Just like love is not a bad thing, but if it is not handled properly, there may be love murders, which is obviously bad It's a big trouble. High education depends on the purpose of pursuing it. He can't go to graduate school. Because, after finishing the graduate school, he can only continue to make a living in this academic field, but can't develop his talent in art design.学术与设计，是两个不同的人生选择和出路。落杉有创造的能力，就应该让他在这方面去开发自己。他本人已经表达了对这个方向的强烈追求。中国教育体制下，他找不到在这方面突破自己的机会。在国内，他不可能考上设计专业研究生。而且，设计的王国在美国，他更应该去美国寻求发展他天才的机会。极而言之，落杉去了美国就是什么学位都不读，成天就在纽约街头流浪、观摩，两三年后回到国内，也能成为一流的设计专家，过上幸福的生活。所以，虽然我从来不把留学当作惟一出路，但从落杉特定的专业和背景来说，是惟一的选择。留学对于落杉的意义，就像沙漠里的一眼清泉，必须停下来，把自己灌饱喝足之后，再上路去追求自己的职业前程。在国内考研，对于落杉是不合适的，千万不要考虑。"于局长没有理由反驳我，想了想，说："如果放弃考研机会，你能保证他明年出国吗？"他的语气，好像明年他儿子出不了国，我就要替他儿子按月付给他孝敬费似的。 我说："出国是没有人能够保证的。就像你考研究生也没有人能够保证。人们能够做的最好的事情，是做出一个最符合自己利益的选择，然后根据这个选择，尽自己的努力去奋斗。这就是人生设计和人生选择的意义所在。 "你儿子真正的兴趣和天才所在，以及他真正想从事的职业，不是研究，而是设计。而他在国内，除了读美术史和理论，不可能发挥设计天才。而美国的教育资源，有无数的机构在等待着点燃他的美术天才。所以，我前面已经论证过，留学是他惟一选择。 "既然这是他惟一选择，那就应该努力去争龋留学，最怕的是不顾自己的条件瞎争取，但是同样也怕条件够了时机成熟了而不敢争龋我在新东方，见得最多的是前者，而不是后者。前者如果表现的是奋斗的疯狂和愚蠢的话，后者却暴露贪图平安的庸俗和恶习，也是我不能允许的。虽然没有人能够保证你的孩子一定顺利实现留学的梦想。个人选择往往是基于一定的信念。如果你看到了险峰，并且想得到风光，你就必须攀登。攀登当然不如在山底下那么安全舒适，但无限风光，是人们永远向往的东西。所以，如果你选择保险，你只能呆在平地；如果你选择风险，你就能攀上顶峰。 "至于你自己，回去把你的教育局长做好，多多推动教育改革，让你属下的孩子们精神状态早点进入21世纪。于落杉的事情，就交给我吧！虽然我对于落杉的留学前途并不实行三包，但我的支持，应该给你一些信心。"于局长听了我的话差点晕了过去，居然把带来的螃蟹和他的手提包一起拎回了常熟。还是他的儿子叫他冷静，他才对他的失态表示了真诚的抱歉。螃蟹们这个时候也不张牙舞爪了，好像在感谢我为于落杉找到了幸福的前途，等待向我奉献它们美味的肉体。 一年后，1999年夏天，于落杉获得美国一所著名工艺设计学院的录龋全自费。但他顺利地获得了签证。 面试时，签证官问："你有奖学金吗？" 他说："有哇！我爸爸给了我一个全奖！"签证官听了一乐，再问："毕业后计划做什么？"他说："还没想好，现在考虑这个有点儿早。但是有一件事是肯定的：买一台最新的Mac(苹果电脑，做设计的都用它)，带回国，为中国的企业搞设计，带动中国的Fashion Industry时尚工业的发展，做个Quick Millionaire速成百万富翁。"于落杉的心态和状态，折射出自信的新东方精神，辉映着宏大的新中国气势。 去了美国不到一年，2000年5月，于落杉暑期实习的公司就给他4万5千美元的年薪留下来工作，但他没有接受。2001年5月，于落杉获得工艺设计硕士学位，同时得到几个公司的录用，最后去了旧金山一家美术设计公司，年薪"不高"，6万美元。 他什么时候回国做他的Quick Millionaire速成百万富翁我并不知道。于落杉给我写过几封信，但是我都不再有时间回他。有一件事情我坚信不移，他肯定会回国。因为，在留学与考研之间做出最佳选择的于落杉，还会在定居和回国之间做出更加聪明、更加激动人心的选择。 中国的吸引力，像最新最美的设计，每天都在吸引着海外优秀人才的回归，在自己的土地上，精心设计、描画、装点并实现自己的人生宏图。 Notes: 2002年6月，也就是我的《图穷对话录》截稿之际，于落杉再次出现在我的身边。当年的英俊少年，已经变成了一头潇洒海龟。我和他长谈了一个下午和晚上。在留学生中间已经属于非常顺利成功的他，讲了很多在美国读书的寒苦和生存的孤独。他强烈的渴望，是回国发展。 但是，在美国付出了三年青春代价的于落杉，很难一下子舍弃那些东西。甚至还想"拿一个绿卡"再回来。他再次陷入选择的困境中。因此反复和我商讨是否回来、何时回来、回来做什么这一类的问题。 我毫不犹豫、坚定执著地说：忘记绿卡，早日回来，越早越好！ 我知道，我的建议，又会像三年前说服他放弃考研正确留学那样，对他的未来起决定性的作用。这次，他是否会听我的？我已经无法知道。但从他找我咨询而没有带螃蟹这一点，我至少可以看出，我说话的分量已经不如当年那么重了。after all.于落杉已经完成学业，成为一个有独立意志的现代化的知识分子，后面的路如何走，他自己应该能够把握。 乔麦的第二学位 Case Tips: 乔麦，男，三十岁，某大学物理系毕业，毕业后加入某外企工作，五年后考入哈佛读MBA，两年后毕业回国，加入一家世界著名咨询机构担任高级职务。徐老师认为乔先生走过的道路是非常典型的成功案例，尤其认为他在国内五年的外企工作经验相当于第二个学历，而且是决定性的。 乔麦三十岁从哈佛大学读完MBA，立即回到北京，加入一家世界著名的跨国公司担任高级职务，年薪十万美元。多乎哉？"不多"也，他觉得他还可以拿到更多，尤其是假如他选择留在美国工作的话。不过，和他的那些依然在国内国外苦苦奋斗的同学朋友相比，以及和他这个年龄的任何人相比，他都是非常成功的。他的成功，主要取决于他选择的留学模式。这个模式，可以成为无数期待出国、渴望通过留学改变命运的同学朋友们参考、学习的蓝图。 乔麦的成功模式是一个简单的三部曲：第一曲，大学毕业后在国内工作四五年；第二曲，出国留学两三年；第三曲，毕业后回国。 乔麦告诉我，在国内那五年的工作，决定了他能够进入世界第一的哈佛大学读工商管理，决定了他毕业后能够在无数竞争者之中，成为惟一被这家公司录取的应届MBA。国内工作五年的经验，相当于第二个学历，而且是决定性的学历。 外企经验的价值 乔麦读的是理论物理，这个学科，如果不去读博士、搞学术的话，是没有出路的。但属于新新人类的乔麦，决心投身商业经济，不走学术之路。他并没有把没有直接实用价值的物理学士学位当作扛在肩膀上的包袱，而是当作攀登更高台阶的脚下基石。毕业后，他有意识选择进入外企工作。中国高端人才市场，最缺少的不是高学位的人，而是理解和适应外企文化的人。乔麦属于这种人。毕业后，他直接进了家著名的外企工作，从事最基本的助理工作。敬业，是外企文化最重要的能力之一，因为胸怀远大目标，乔麦在工作上非常敬业，结果他一路顺畅，第五年的时候，已经是一个跨国公司的部门负责人。一个作为没有出过国的中国人，能够在外企成功担任某个部门的负责工作，无论从哪个角度，都是乔麦杰出和成功的证明。 外企在中国，对于有留学大志的奋斗朋友们而言，有一个特点需要注意：它的企业文化，管理体系和经验价值，是世界通用的。外企工作背景的价值和美国总公司或分公司也基本一样。经常有外企工作人员，通过内部的"Transfer"，从中国转到美国工作。这意味着，无论你是在纽约的可口可乐还是在北京的可口可乐工作，对于哈佛大学或是斯坦福大学录取官员来说，都是没有区别的。甚至对于中国学生来说，由于他们来自世界上发展最迅速、最能唤起投资者激情和幻想的中国市场，这个背景就显得更加吸引人、更具竞争力。这就是乔麦第二个学历--中国工作经验的价值所在！他的成功，始于毕业后通过在外企工作的方式，赢得了宝贵的工作经验，获得了丰富的物质收获，还得到了这个"第二学历"。 当然，没有外企经验，对于留学申请，未必意味着劣势。这是一个留学申请的艺术和观念问题，容我在另外的地方阐述。 留学美国的平台 在外企工作的几年中，乔麦使用的工作语言是英语，打交道的人士很多是美国人，身边还有许多新加坡、香港等地来的不会说普通话只能用英语沟通的华人。这使得乔麦的语言能力飞速提高。周末，他在新东方上英语课，在第三年的时候，考出了不错的托福和GMAT的成绩。留学申请是一个非常艰巨和耗时耗钱的过程。尤其对于已经工作的人来说，在某种意义上，压力不亚于高考最后两年。但由于乔麦在外企，接触的留学生和高级专业人士较多，使得他对美国著名工商管理学院的录取程序和选才文化有了比较深入的了解，这为乔麦进入哈佛、斯坦福这样的学校，提供了充分的信息和扎实的自信。由于信心和信息的优势，使得乔麦在这个过程中的压力大大缓解。北大--可口可乐--哈佛--通用电器，这样一种精彩之路，就变得顺理成章。 人们以为美国人并不讲究穿着，其实这是一个误解：美国社会对于服饰语言dressing code，其实有严格的规矩。在什么场合穿什么衣服，见什么人着什么装，反映了一个人的教养和地位，绝对马虎不得。所谓"不讲究穿着"，是指在日常生活中，美国人着装的个性化选择自由化风格。 与着装相关的问题是：美国人是否讲究名牌大学？答案是非常讲究，虽然和中国讲究的角度和程度不一样，但进入美国名牌大学，对于某些专业某些学位的人来说，是非常重要的。 假如你仅仅是想去美国读一个电脑硕士，哈佛大学的电脑硕士和普通大学的电脑硕士毕业后的收入不会相距太大。从技术的角度，普通大学传授的内容肯定不会比名牌大学的少一个芯片。企业在雇佣你的时候，意义也不是很大。但是，假如你的志向是要做微软研究院负责人，研究五年十年后电脑如何改变人类生活，名牌大学的高学位，就比较重要。越是著名的大学，前瞻性研究、理论性研究就越超前。 但是，如果去美国读MBA，像乔麦这样，最好你能够立志去一个就你本人的实际能力和潜在水平而言最好的学校。因为社会联系、同学网络、社会地位、学校背景，对于MBA的发展有重要的意义。比如，我的一个朋友说：能够得到沃顿的录取，等于能够得到世界任何投资者的青睐。因为沃顿对你进行的筛选和甑别，已经向他们展示了你的优秀。华尔街的银行家有百分之六十是沃顿的校友，毕业后你可以以校友身份，寻求并得到这些校友们的支持。哈佛大学也有类似的传奇说法。读MBA，当然是越有名的学校越好。 简单说，乔麦在外企埋头积累五年，具备了哈佛所需要的经验，拥有了做一个哈佛MBA所必须的素质，为他的起飞建造了平台。 回国工作的决策 乔麦之所以引起我的注意和激发了我的兴趣，是因为他毕业后立即回国工作的选择。前面讲过，在中国的外企和西方企业没有什么区别。尤其是在工资上，对中国人越来越按照国际惯例来给。当然，特别是那些先获得美国MBA和其他学位的人，外企更是率先对他们采取了国际工资标准。这使得阻止中国留学生回国的一个重要因素日益失去了作用。 如果乔麦不回国，他可能在华尔街过得很好。但是，根据我的留学理论：留在国外就是失败，而不管你工资多少地位多高。通用电器、通用汽车和微软这样的公司，已经把中国当作他们未来前途的战略要地重点发展，而中国人自己却要放弃自己的家园，只是为了美国那点工资和"清新的空气"，实在有点越来越脱离中国实际。这个思维，已经落后到了"反动"的程度，成为80年代的"冷战思维"。谁说"中国威胁论"谁就是我们的敌人，谁固守"回国不好论"谁就是他自己的冤家。回到中国，对于一个中国男儿来说，是非常重要的选择。即使杨振宁这样在美国度过了半个世纪的老人，退休时也选择把退休后三分之二的时间各放在香港和清华大学。中华民族的基本特性，永远无法躲避。 我尊重人们选择自己居住和发展地点的自由。我是一个自由主义者，而绝不是一个狭隘民族主义者。我并不认为不回国就不能为中国贡献，也不认为回国就一定能为中国做更大的贡献。中国政府在2001年年底提出的留学政策，体现的是世界上最先进的人才战略：对于留学生"只求有用，不求拥有"，非常前卫地反映了经济全球化时代的人才特点。我不会比政府决策者更保守！但就一个人事业发展、理想追求、社会地位、人生成就感和灵魂归宿感而言，毫无疑问，中国是我们无可选择的最佳平台和惟一根基。 最重要的是，从人才竞争的角度，回到中国的留学生，真的马上就凸显了自己对于中国社会特别的价值，迅速拥有了无限宽广的天地和机会。假如把人才比作汽车的话，华尔街上的宝马奔驰，谁也不会多看一眼，但在中国你哪怕开一辆桑塔纳，也是人们羡慕的汽车阶层。我的意思是：留学生回到国内，对于急需现代化和国际化人才的中国，是稀缺的资源，依然是中国市场上的宠儿。显然留学生的这个优势正在越来越迅速地贬值，因此就更加需要海外的朋友们迅速回归，抓住个人价值依然强劲的时候赶快出货啊！ 这就是乔麦使我激动的原因。他毕业后的每一步都走在人才竞争最优势的选择上，成功地攀上了他的事业平台。乔麦的人生，不会再有什么戏剧性大跳：因为他已经登上了他的事业平台。他要做的，只是在这个平台上搭建不同的积木和拼图。无论是在这个公司工作一辈子，还是在其他什么领域创造新奇迹，乔麦已经属于最优秀人才队伍里的成员。乔麦的未来，任何人都已无法阻挡，他将在中国的商业战场上，写下一个时代豪杰攻城掠地、捷报频传的历史篇章。 Case Tips: 云云正通过一家中介公司办理去澳洲学习计算机的留学手续。徐小平的一番话，云云决定改去瑞士学习酒店管理。云云的爸爸问：学这一行毕业后到底有什么前途？ 我是在新东方门口遇见林云云的。她看见我，一把抓住我说："徐老师，你必须给我一点时间，否则我就不让你走！"我只好把她请进了办公室。 原来她和北京一家留学中介签约要去澳大利亚读计算机本科，出于某种冲动，想到新东方来看看再做最后决定，没想到遇见了我。 林云云是南方姑娘，面孔清秀可爱，个子高高挑挑，大概一米六五的样子。她的性格，属于开放外向的类型。她说她爱唱歌，爱跳舞，爱和人打交道，中学期间做过学生会干部。高考没考上，就自学英语。高中毕业后学习了两年，托福已经考过了500分。 我说："我能为你做点什么？" 她说："我想请你帮助我设计一下我未来的留学前途。出出主意。"我说："你不是去澳大利亚读计算机吗，挺好呀！"她说："但我总是感觉有问题，可又不知道问题出在什么地方，所以要你帮我看看症结在哪里？"我知道她的问题了：云云不喜欢计算机。在她即将决定她未来一生到底如何度过的时候，她开始后悔，而这个时候，她在家庭和社会的压力下，几乎已经没有选择的余地。她必须立即做出决定，交付定金，开始办理澳大利亚的留学。 选择读什么专业，对于个人的前途，其意义相当于找对象。可能比找对象还更加重要。找对象如果不合适，尚可随时分手和离婚；而选专业，如果没有选好，那就问题严重了：你必须把自己的前半生通过努力获得的主要能力放弃。这简直相当于自杀一次。在过去中国僵硬的教育制度下，学生没有选择自己专业权利，多少人一生搭错车，一生走错路。我不能让云云重蹈覆辙。 于是我认真地问她："你到底喜欢做什么？"云云说："我也不知道。我就喜欢做一种热热闹闹、唱唱跳跳、成天玩乐的工作……"我说："那你可以做歌星啊！"云云说："想过。也努力过。但是显然我没有那份天才和机遇，所以追求了一阵，还是放弃了。我理想的工作应该是和人打交道，而不是和机器打交道；是搞艺术，而不是搞技术；是进行人际交流，而不是人机交流……"林云云努力描述自己的爱好。但对于一个二十不到的女孩，要想说清楚自己到底想做什么确实是非常不容易的。这本该是职业顾问的事情。但可惜的是，职业顾问这样一种西方社会非常普及和常见的专业人士，在中国几乎没有。这就使得云云这样可爱的女孩子男孩子，不得不在黑暗中摸索前进。摸对了，摸着一条大鱼；摸错了，摸着一条大蛇。极端地说，新东方每年出国的学生哪怕全部去学职业咨询、教育咨询和心理咨询这样的专业，将来回国都不怕找不到工作。只有这样，我们的教育系统和人才成长环境才算完善啊！ 我一边听，一边想，一边感慨，又一边决定：让我来做一次云云的职业顾问吧。云云到底学什么最好？ 我说："其实，你说的这种工作是存在的。你不该出去读计算机，你真正应该去读的是文科类型的学位。文科的专业种类非常多，我看你去读任何一种都比计算机强。无论是看上去最不直接与就业挂钩的社会学、传播学、历史学、英语文学，或者教育学、商学、心理学，我看都适合你。 "到了国外，读这么一种可塑性很强的文科专业，一边读书，一边在生活中寻找自己最爱做的事情。在两三年之后，再决定自己要从事什么样的职业也不迟。假如你要留在国外，是一种职业选择；假如你要回国，又是另外一种选择--你有可能留在国外定居吗？"林云云不假思索地告诉我，她是家里的独生女，至少现在没有在国外定居的想法。 于是我说："如果这样的话，你可以选择读任何一个专业，文科类就行，将来回国的就业机会肯定是无限宽广的。不要把自己限定在一个特定的领域里，过早规定了自己的飞行轨道，其实未必正确。你可以从国外留学回来，找一个自己喜欢的行业干下去--比如在电视台、报社、网站、杂志社、私立学校、外企管理辅助人员。干得好的话，也许就一口气干出点名堂来，也许，还可以在干上三五年之后，再次出国深造一个学位--这个时候的学位，就是非常严肃地决定你一生的学位：擅长管理就去读MBA(MBA里又有十几种不同方向可供她选择)、立志法律就去读JD、热爱教育就去读M Ed.(读完这个硕士回国任何私立学校做校长、任何教育机构做专家)、喜欢办新东方就去深造一个Master of ESL(中国需要数以万计的英语教学专业人士，从高级白领到农村小学生，英语正在大规模地改变一代人的素质和命运)、发现自己有制作和创造天才的话，更可以去国外读一个MFA in电视电影制作(中国一流的硬件和末流的软件，预示着这个行业有100年的就业空间)。还有，2008年中国的奥运会将会带来无限机会，学体育管理和经纪、休闲管理和经营、酒店管理和旅游管理，都是你摸爬滚打的无限天地埃"云云睁大了眼睛继续听我说。我想我该说的已经说完了。但我必须点明我的主题。我说："其实未来的工作机会和发展发财的机会是无穷无尽的。只要你出国真正学到点东西，这些东西包括专业能力、英语能力、交流能力、人际能力、独立思考能力，将来你回国就不愁找不到工作。能够在这样时候以充分的英语能力、得到爸爸妈妈经济的支持出国学习，真的是很幸运的。出去学什么都可以，甚至包括学习电脑。不过，假如你实在不喜欢理工科的话，也就不要勉强，任选一个文科商科都可以。"林云云还是一脸茫然。她说："我需要你具体指出一个行业。只要你说行，我就去学。太多的选择，反而没有选择；太多的自由，反而失去自由。"我说："既然这样，我来替你选择吧。这个选择，非常保险，绝对有就业保障，生活一定安适，收入一定不错，就业城市一定很大，深造机会也肯定不少。你去瑞士读酒店管理吧。"当时的我，刚从瑞士考察酒店管理学校回国，那里几所优秀的酒店管理学校给我留下非常深刻的印象。 "你刚才说你最喜欢的工作是热热闹闹、唱唱跳跳、和人打交道。这样的工作，除了做三陪，就是酒店管理了。酒店管理最大的好处是：学术性非常不强，这是一个操作技能和理论学习各半的专业。你这样的学生肯定能够学得很出色。从这个专业出来，可以从事酒店业、旅游业、迪斯尼乐园、高尔夫球场管理、名胜古迹的开发、航空公司、高级俱乐部和会所管理等等所有这些新兴行业。未来中国几十年，这方面将是非常兴旺的行业，中国人有钱了要出国，回了国要享受人生，外国人了解中国多了要来中国，这将是世界上最大的市场，最有前途的事业，而且，也最符合你理想中的工作！"我当然知道任何行业都不是说说笑笑就能混到饭吃的。即使是演艺行业，在轻歌曼舞的后面，其实是残酷的竞争和压力。但是，旅游业给予云云的，是一种能够充分展示她自身魅力和能力，扩展她个性与性格，并且以这种性格个性赢得事业发展的一种行业。 林云云听了我的分析高兴得热烈鼓掌。说下午就去找另外一家专办瑞士酒店管理学院的留学中介那里去了解情况。我给了她几个著名学校
