--John Adams In
HBO's John Adams documentary film last year, when the war of independence was in full swing, the Continental Army urgently needed financial aid and munitions from European countries. In the gorgeous hall of the Palace of Versailles, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and a group of French aristocrats are dining. The court musicians played melodious movements on the side.
At this time, the Duke of France asked the guests around him, Mr. Adams, do you think the music is still smooth?
Oh, my dear sir, I don't understand this music at all. The guest cramped.
The long and noisy table was suddenly silent, and everyone pricked their ears to hear how this rude American would explain his unreasonable evaluation.
So John Adams brewed for a while and said:
Dear friends, your country has been rich and strong for a long time. Look at this gorgeous palace, look at the exquisite food. Presumably this music is also excellent. But the American people are still living in dire straits... (Received from the first quote) The
guests were all moved, and there was a tide of applause.
Rancho asked Pia, what should the suction power be? She answered, 0.5! When
I first started my undergraduate professional course, the assistant instructor of the analog circuit course was a PhD candidate in India. Before the mid-term exam, he sat down and told us, don’t forget to write the name of the unit on the answer to the test paper. This is not a department of mathematics, the answer without a unit is meaningless, the whole question is 0 points! At this time, the professor drifted by, he said openly, students don't listen to him. We here are not IIT (Indian Institute of Technology), forget that the unit still has a partial credit.
At that time, more than half of the faculty members were Asians, while Asians included Chinese for half, and Indians and Middle Easterners each accounted for a quarter. Most of the teaching assistants are foreign students from these places. In each class, each person has to choose one class of discussion class (explained by the teaching assistant) per week. What impressed me the most in the first semester of professional courses was a semiconductor class. This class is difficult. Like many of my classmates, I will attend seminars with different teaching assistants. Basically, as long as the question is difficult, the answer from the Chinese teaching assistant is, I'll get back to you asap. And there is a big Niu Indian teaching assistant, no matter what I ask him, he will return to the basic formula similar to Maxwell's Equations. Then ask me questions step by step, give me enlightenment, and then I can derive the answer I want without knowing it. I know that the foundation of the semiconductor industry in both China and India was still relatively small. Undergraduates in the Department of Electrical Engineering usually study communication or simulation/integration in China, and those who transfer to other branches as graduate students are monks who are half-way renunciations. Then these teaching assistants who graduated from IIT, the top university in India, have a solid professional foundation in this direction, which is even more admirable. It was from the competition of tens of millions of people that they entered the IIT, and then they squeezed their heads from the IIT and traveled across the ocean to further their studies. They are not the raptors but the rivers, but these have crossed the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. The seniors are even the dinosaurs of the Raptors world. Although I haven't seen a strange person like Rancho.
The female student in Jingmeng asked, "Teacher, what is the use of learning English?" Teacher Wang Zuxian said that if you learn English well, you can do great things for the country.
Once I asked an Indian classmate, how come I said that only the School of Engineering can see your compatriots in the entire school? She said that all Indians are like this. Engineering is an industry. If you don't study, you don't feel like you are making a contribution to the country. I asked if you have eaten beef? She said that in fact, most people are not that religious. She has eaten beef many times, of course, she would never make it at home. I said that your devotion to engineering is as deep as that of holy shit. She was happy.
One of the main reasons why I don’t like most Korean and Indian movies is like I didn’t catch a cold on TVB when I was a kid, because they were all social elites, red men and green women. They all live in luxury houses, and those in the living room smaller than the volleyball court are embarrassed to be photogenic, and they drive all famous cars. This Volvo is considered to be a cold lining. Not long ago, I saw a similar battery in a Cambodian documentary at the Film Festival, which was used by residents of various villages without electricity to sing karaoke. In this film, the talented engineers of the Ace University of India use a bunch of household car batteries to make the temporary operating table energy, so that the civilians who count 12 yuan a catty of okra can't live?
At an awards ceremony a few years ago, (it seems) Sandra Oh (Grey's Anatomy) said when she won the best supporting actress, I want to tell the Asian parents present and in front of the TV, please don’t force your children to go. Medical school, law school and business school, they don’t have to be a doctor, they can also be successful by playing one.
I’ll omit the story about soldiers on paper.
Basically, the truth of these two great vernaculars in this film is remarkable: choose the profession you are passionate about, even if it is a poor one; don’t read and teach hard.
Turning a series of helpless cups and utensils in life into reunion washing utensils to end it can be regarded as an expression of the optimistic Indian people's tolerance and understanding of a similar religious view in the difficult life of the people. In other words, this is a film with a pressure of 0.5, which drifts between profound and whitewashed peace.
One last reminder: In fact, the pencil was first adopted by the space manned programs of the United States and the Soviet Union. Although it was a bit risky, there was no better idea at the time. The so-called Fisher Space Pen Company is a product that was recruited by NASA through lobbying after completely independent research and development, and the funding will definitely not be several million. Basically, most markers can also work in the vacuum environment of the spacecraft.
