146, Follow and Do Research

At this time, many Qing people were also confused. Google search reading

Why did they obviously start to see the world earlier? Wei Yuan's "Hai Guo Tu Zhi" was regarded as a classic by the Japanese, and some measures of the Westernizationists were also imitated by the Japanese... But why was it that the Qing Dynasty was not as good as the Japanese?

Many people don't understand the relationship.

Take Mr. Zhu for example.

When leaving, Mr. Zhu asked him: "I am old and slow to learn. Otherwise, I would also like to go to Japan and see why people in their countries are able to catch up..."

Bai Gui feels that the book "Guns, Germs, and War" should be able to answer Mr. Zhu's question.

What the Qing Dynasty lacks now is not a copy of "The Great Qin Empire", nor novels such as "Tokugawa Ieyasu" or "Toyotomi Hideyoshi". What it lacks is a book that can wake them up.

The content of this book can be summarized very simply: "The history of different peoples follows different paths. The reason is the difference in the national environment, not the biological differences of the people themselves."

So, don’t underestimate yourself!

No need to doubt yourself!

Go, go on!

One day the clouds and mist will be cleared and the light will be seen again.

…

It’s just that this book cannot be taken out rashly yet.

It is only the beginning of the 20th century, and some archaeological data are not available at all at the moment. There are also some opinions that are based on previous research. This book only exists by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Now that I take it out, I can’t explain it.

They will also be questioned as to whether the views expressed in this book and the conclusions drawn based on the analysis of historical facts are true? !

Overnight, everyone will be shouting for beating!

Become a joke.

Therefore, necessary research still needs to be done, including detailed analysis, deletion, and verification of the content. Just like when he was in the imperial examination, he could at least have something to say, and he couldn't be confused when reporters and colleagues asked questions.

Professor Shiraishi was the breakthrough point.

Professor Shiraishi is not only a lecturer at the First High School, but also a lecturer at Tokyo University. He is responsible for studying the history of Japan and has a good status at Tokyo University.

A good high school is like this. It can hire university teachers to teach, not to mention the relationship between the first high school and Dongda. Most people are really not qualified to give lectures in the first high school.

"What do you think, Mr. Bai?"

Professor Shiraishi frowned, a little confused.

"I hope to do research with Mr. Baishi... As the professor asked in class, I have a certain understanding of Chinese historical materials, and Mr. Baishi studies Japanese history, so I want to follow Mr. Baishi..."

Bai Gui spoke quickly.

His intention has been made very obvious, and now it depends on whether Professor Shiraishi is willing to agree.

With Professor Shiraishi as his support, he could enter Tokyo University to read various materials, and he could also use Professor Shiraishi's connections to complete some things. Academic circles are not a product of later generations, but have existed since ancient times...

It is too difficult for just one person to do it.

To put it simply, the lecturers who teach you in college seem to be very considerate, just like ordinary people, and there is nothing special about them. But after graduation, if you do not do well, they will be people you cannot reach.

This is especially true in good universities!

The resources and status behind a professor are extremely powerful.

"Oh, it turns out Mr. Bai wants to do research with me... It's my honor."

Professor Shiraishi looked happy.

In a high school, there are many students from Dongda University who are teaching under their tutelage and doing research with them. After all, the first high school is a preparatory course for university, preparing for admission to university subjects, and it also has the same major...

It's reasonable and reasonable for them to see each other and have similar interests.

As for Bai Gui, he is now a well-known writer. If he can do research with him, his reputation will also be greatly enhanced.

Who doesn't want to receive a great student. valley

"Then... I'll ask Mr. Shiraishi to take care of me from now on."

Bai Gui bowed his head and thanked him.

You will be rewarded if you pay!

Anyway, after he was promoted to Tokyo University, he would inevitably do research with a professor. Professor Shiraishi is quite familiar with him and his personality is not bad. If you join him, it will be of great benefit to him...

Confucian master of impermanence.

"This is my address in Dongda..."

"Well..., there are also some library card items, Mr. Bai, please keep them."

Professor Shiraishi took out a lot of things from his briefcase and handed them to Bai Gui one by one.

He just heard that the book Bai Gui planned to write was about comparing customs and cultures of foreign countries, so it was necessary to borrow materials from the Dongda Library. As Bai Gui is a writer, it is not difficult to apply for a library card, but the procedure is undoubtedly more troublesome. Book resources are extremely precious in this era, so lending Bai Gui a library card is considered a personal favor.

"Thank you, Mr. Shiraishi."

Bai Gui thanked him again.

…

Return to the dormitory.

Liu Mingda and the others also looked envious.

"Generally speaking, first-year students will only be appreciated by professors and send invitations when they are in their second year. Even if first-year students go to the professor, the professor will not accept him..."

"I didn't expect that Brother Meihe would win the battle."

In the first year of preparatory courses, you only learn basic knowledge, and the subject knowledge involved is not profound. But in the second year of preparatory studies, some public courses will be selectively cut and professional courses will be deepened.

At this time, if there are students with outstanding performance, the professor will also send an invitation letter.

Once you have this invitation letter, it means that you will definitely graduate successfully from No. 1 High School. Even if you fail in some subjects, it doesn't matter. The professor will protect you. You will also be much more relaxed in class and after class.

There are too many benefits.

Therefore, some first-year students in the preparatory course often take risks and want to become professors, but they often fail.

"Congratulations, Brother Meihe."

Several people congratulated.

Like them, they can only follow the procedures and take one step at a time.

"The day before yesterday, Minister Wu sent a message saying that you did well in the last semester and have applied to the Ministry of Education to promote you to official dispatched students. Now there is only one process left..."

"Compared to me, Brother Mingda and Brother Huaixian, you have made greater progress!"

Bai Gui also congratulated.

"No, no..."

Wu Huaixian and Liu Mingda looked complacent.

There are only seven places for self-funded students in No. 1 High School to be transferred to official dispatched students, and there are more than 20 self-funded students. They are among them, which can be regarded as a sweet reward after suffering.

Don't think that the chance of self-funded students becoming government-sponsored students is two to one, but this is only the first high school!

Liu Mingda and his classmates not only compete with the same class of the first high school, but also compete with the Japanese students from universities in Tokyo and other places in Japan. They stand out among thousands of people.

The elimination rate is extremely high!

It also depends on the good platform of the first high school, and more quotas are allocated.

"But Professor Shiraishi and I will do research in advance, and we can also get to know some professors. When the time comes..."

Bai Gui smiled, and the meaning was self-evident.

Now the first high school and the University of Tokyo are separated, and he entered the University of Tokyo to do research in advance, which is equivalent to a bridge connection. Knowing what research some professors do, isn't it easy?
