The words were earth-shattering. Jiang Hongshao turned around and looked at the source of this familiar voice. There were a sea of heads all around, but it was so strange that you could hear a pin drop.
The reporter was dumbfounded, and the school leaders in the front row were a little confused. Suddenly, they felt that this was about to turn into an accident...
Sun Xiao was like a mountain eagle. Although the tiered classroom was built higher and higher, he gave people the feeling of an eagle looking down on the two students, a boy and a girl.
Jiang Hongshao saw Cheng Ran in the red light. She was surprised but not surprised. Her eyes trembled, but at this time, a layer of haze rose in her heart.
Cheng Ran's words were extremely serious. To put it mildly, it was disrespectful to elders. To put it more seriously, Sun Xiao could sue him for insult and defamation. Even if he didn't take legal action, it would only make things worse if it was published in the newspaper.
Cheng Ran enjoyed cursing... But Sun Xiao was so famous that you could question his reputation. That was still academic content, but if he started cursing, accusing him of seeking fame and telling lies, he would be trapped in Sun Xiao's net. The harder Cheng Ran struggled, the more severe the subsequent constraints and backlash would be.
A student who is so disrespectful and has no sense of reverence, what else can he be if not a soul without faith? What else can he be if not a lawless generation
These things flashed through Jiang Hongshao's mind in a flash, but as smart as she was, she was helpless at the moment. Her clenched fingernails dug into the flesh of her palms.
Even the stunned reporters at the front couldn't help but shake their heads at this time, feeling sorry for the student. They would definitely put it into writing, and they could almost imagine what the consequences would be for them.
After a brief pause, before the school leaders and teachers could react to the possibility that they had been isolated, Cheng Ran said, "I said you are lying. May I ask which report was published about the candy experiment in China and Australia? Which institution or people did the experiment? Where can I verify it?"
Sun Xiao laughed angrily, "These are all recorded in the relevant documents. Do you think I have to find them for you right now? Young man, read more books and you won't be so superficial."
"The real candy experiment, called the 'marshmallow experiment', was conducted by Dr. Walter Mischel in a Stanford University kindergarten in 1966. The researchers put a marshmallow in front of the children and told them that if they could resist eating the marshmallow before the researchers came back, they would get a second marshmallow. If they ate the marshmallow, they would only get the first marshmallow. The experiment spanned more than ten years, tracking the students more than ten years later. The experiment tells you that if we can teach children to be more patient and have better self-control, they are likely to succeed in the future. But what the experiment didn't say is that the little ones who were tempted by the marshmallows were all children from wealthy families with well-educated parents. They also didn't tell you that in order to make up for the limitations of the marshmallow experiment, New York University later selected 1,000 four-year-old children and divided them into two groups: those whose mothers had a college degree and those who did not, and tested them separately. The results showed that delaying gratification did not affect other aspects of children's lives later. What affects children's future may be more macro and more difficult to change factors, such as whether the children's intelligence and family are superior?"
Cheng Ran's tone was calm, but it caused the whole place to fall silent. The crowd of people in the lecture hall turned around with a rumble, twisting their bodies and making creaking noises in their chairs. They all looked at him sideways, and were a little surprised by his well-reasoned response.
"So the so-called candy experiment is a false proposition. Not to mention that the essence of the candy experiment is to study the impact of delayed effects on children's future, but you turned it into a competition between Chinese and Australian students... Expert Sun's way of stealing concepts is really perfect. No, this technique of grafting flowers and trees is also your talent."
"In fact, in 1994, China Youth Daily published a full-page article on the front page to expose your false report about the competition in the summer camp. But your remarks were very popular at that time, and no one paid attention to the report. You yourself did not respond because you knew that the report was true!"
"The report clarified that the weighted walking distance was set by Japan based on children's physical fitness science, that is, carrying a weight of 10 kilograms and walking more than 20 kilometers. You made up the absurd data of 20 kilograms for 50 kilometers because from the beginning, you completely ignored the facts and started your own show!"
"You said that the Chinese children threw their schoolbags on the cart to slack off, while the Japanese children carried them on their own. The fact is that the quality of domestic schoolbags is indeed too poor. 80% of the student backpacks break because they cannot bear the weight, while Japanese students carry professional camping backpacks. When the Chinese children threw their schoolbags into the cart, the Chinese teacher only said: 'This carriage is for public things.' The children immediately picked up the schoolbags again, some carried them, some hugged them, and some tied the straps with wire and continued to move forward. The poor quality of products makes Chinese children suffer more difficulties than Japanese children."
"The pretty girl you mentioned, who was hiding on the Simmons mattress and sipping milk tea, fell ill during the march and lay on a cardboard. The doctor examined her and sent her back to the base camp. The next morning, the girl returned to the team before she was fully recovered and stayed with the team until the end of the march."
"Japanese children don't relieve themselves in the wild, and Chinese children have never set up a tent. Both sides are sincerely discovering each other's strengths and comparing them with their own shortcomings. Even the Japanese children said that they didn't expect Chinese children didn't have the shortcomings of Japanese only children."
…
"The report also revealed that Chinese children actually faced greater difficulties than Japanese children at the time, because the class leaders were Japanese college students, Chinese children had language barriers, and the meals were designed according to Japanese tastes, so Chinese children couldn't eat well even if they wanted to. In order to conduct a children's diet experiment, the Japanese side controlled the amount of food they ate, and the Japanese children rushed to eat, but the Chinese children often went hungry because of their 'traditional virtue' of humility. Even so, even if they knew they could buy food at the nearby supply and marketing cooperative, they still endured hunger and didn't buy it. I would like to ask these Chinese students, what would they think when they saw your report? They obviously worked very hard, but you nailed them to the pillar of shame."
"You said that the Japanese openly said that your generation is no match for us. After your report came out, Mr. Kawabe Shinichi, chairman of the Japanese International Youth Adventure Executive Committee, wrote a letter to the Chinese Soong Ching Ling Foundation. The letter expressed that the friendship between the Chinese and Japanese children in this summer camp was "like a TV series full of excitement and tears." However, it also said, "They learned that a certain Chinese magazine published a regrettable article. We, the relevant Japanese personnel, were deeply saddened. None of us said such words. After returning home, the Japanese team members recalled their Chinese companions as "they were very polite," "working alone," and "good at cooking, which Japanese children could never cook..."
"Instead of what you said, 'Chinese children are white and fat, playing with their hands behind their backs', all kinds of sneaky and sly images. They are clearly working hard and not bringing shame to anyone... but in your article, they are all good-for-nothings and garbage!"
The crowd began to gather, and the noise of agitation began to grow louder and louder.
The school leaders looked at each other in bewilderment. They wanted to take action, but Cheng Ran's paragraphs and sentences were well-reasoned and detailed. Even they couldn't help but listen to the end in silence.
Silence is an attitude.
Looking at Cheng Ran at this moment, it seemed as if he had the power to look down on all living beings.
Zhang Ping was dumbfounded, and Hao Di on the side was stunned.
People who knew him, such as Zhang Yunhan, Qin Qian, and Yuan Huiqun, were all a little stunned. They couldn't believe that this was the Cheng Ran who usually kept silent in front of them.
More students in the classroom felt their chests rising and falling along with it.
Luo Wei, Su Hongdou, Marco, and Shu Jiexi all had a thought flashing through their heads like a comet. When they saw him crossing mountains and seas to come here at the beginning of the school year, they knew that one day, he would make such a shocking achievement.
"You accuse us of hypocrisy, accuse us of vanity, accuse us of being spoiled, having no patience, having no moderation in pleasure, and being uncompetitive. We are selfish, have no ability to survive, have no critical thinking, and have degenerate and heretical thoughts..."
"It's like you're not the one who's being hypocritical and quibbling, you're not the one who's talking big, you're not the one who's lying to the world, you're not the one who's lacking morals... You're responsible for all of this, but you're educating the next generation and there's something wrong with that? Who's wrong?"
"If we don't respect the facts, what valuable conclusions can we draw? If we don't dare to look children in the eye, what hope is there for education?"
"You always like to use the United States as an example, so I will also respond with the words of Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence..."
“Believe in young people, believe in the future!”
After a moment of silence, someone in the classroom clapped without knowing whether to live or die, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.
The whole room burst into thunderous applause, like a torrential rain.
This is the awakening of the times.
Finished, going to bed, waited for a long time, good night, sweet dreams.
