Chapter 49 The Shackles of Humanity
Chapter 49 The Shackles of Humanity
Wang Zixu smiled bitterly: "You misunderstood. Lin Feng and I are just friends of friendship. It's not that I approached him to build a relationship with him, but he asked me to appear on Xihe Literature and Art. Literature is literature. It would be vulgar to do it that way."
Zhang Cangnian shook his head and said, "You are really stupid."
……
"So Cheng Xing is really stupid. If he just stood up and said, 'The little prince is me, I am the little prince,' then the little prince's true identity would definitely come out. Wouldn't the truth be revealed then?"
Huang Xinghuo stood on the podium and spoke to the audience. The huge classroom was packed with students, and every student looked at him eagerly, without any slacking off.
This is the classroom of the Culture and Thought Course of NCU. This is an elective course offered by Huang Xinghuo. There are only 100 students taking it, but the classroom of people is full at this time, and some are standing.
Huang Xinghuo's teaching style is full of passion, and his classes are lively. Recently, he was talking about a hot topic, and many students came to listen to his words, making the class even more lively.
The hot spot is The Little Prince.
A student raised his hand. Huang Xinghuo pointed at him and the boy stood up and said:
"Teacher Huang, do you think Cheng Xing is really not the original author of "The Little Prince's 40 Love Letters to the World"? "
Huang Xinghuo shook his head and said, "No. The reasons are as follows. First, Cheng Xing showed it to us when he first published it, and he clearly stated that he was not the original author. Second, I read his original article. His writing style and logic are not like this."
The student asked: "Teacher, judging from the writing style, can the conclusion be guaranteed to be accurate?"
Huang Xinghuo said: "Ordinary people may not be very accurate in their judgment, but my judgment is more than 99% accurate because I am a trained professional."
The students all laughed.
Huang Xinghuo said, "I'm not kidding, this is true. The Little Prince looks very coquettish on the surface, but his writing contains a huge pain, which is why it attracts people. Cheng Xing is still young and a bit naive, so he can't write this kind of thing."
There was another round of laughter. After the laughter died down, the boy asked, "Teacher Huang, what do you think, since the Little Prince's writings are so popular, why doesn't he reveal his true identity?"
Huang Xinghuo pushed his glasses and was silent for a while.
"classmates."
He said these three words with some heaviness, the discussion gradually subsided, and the classroom fell into silence.
"You are still young and your life has just begun. You can say that you have nothing but hope.
“But one day, you will graduate, work, buy a house, a car, get married, have children, and you will gain many connections and find your place in society.
"At the same time, you will also have responsibilities, obligations, goals, motivation...
“You will gradually possess many, many things, and when you truly feel the weight of ‘possession’, you will be afraid to give them up.
"The Little Prince is indeed very popular now. But it is a controversial fire, and not everyone can feel his charm.
"To stand up and accept it, he needs to give up a lot of things. Maybe it's reputation, maybe it's family, maybe it's dignity. Maybe it's because he has too much and it's too heavy that he finds it difficult to make a choice."
A boy stood up and said, "Teacher, you just said that you wanted Cheng Xing to pretend to be the boss and force him out?"
Huang Xinghuo said: "Yes! At this time, a villain needs to stand up and force him to put everything he has on the scale and make a decision to see which side is what he really wants. Otherwise, he will never dare to make a decision."
The boy asked: "You mean, the little prince might be a very famous professor? Or a scholar? Or a famous writer?" Huang Xinghuo shook his head: "I didn't say that. I don't know the little prince. Everything is just speculation."
Another girl raised her hand, and Huang Xinghuo called on her. The girl said, "Teacher Huang, The Little Prince is such an excellent work, why can't some people understand its excellence? I don't really understand."
Huang Xinghuo asked, "You like The Little Prince's Love Letter very much, right?"
"Yes."
"Then let me ask you, if, if, you get married and have children, and you find that your children are reading this book, how would you feel?"
The girl was silent for a while and said, "Then I definitely won't do it."
Laugh out loud.
After the laughter subsided, Huang Xinghuo smiled and said, "Yes, that's why. Many people's appreciation ability is far lower than their moral discipline, so they can't calmly accept the excellence of a work."
Another student raised his hand: "Teacher, do you think that the Little Prince's works are only popular among young people for a while, but are not actually worth watching?"
Huang Xinghuo spread out his hands and said, "Countertop? Where is the countertop? Where is the countertop?"
No one answered him and all the students were confused.
Huang Xinghuo said: "The surface is in the heart of each of us. There is no such empty discipline as the so-called 'mainstream view' in this world. It is the specific consciousness of each of us that constitutes the mainstream and non-mainstream of the world.
"A hundred years ago, the Jia family considered The West Chamber a banned book, and Jia Baoyu would be beaten by his father if he read it. But today, The West Chamber is listed as a must-read classic. Values will change, and new things will replace old things. This is the eternal theme of the world.
"I hope that when you grow up, your opinions will become mainstream, the world will become more open and better, your original aspirations will remain consistent, and your enthusiasm will never fade. Literature, as an eternal and unchanging stone in the long river of time, will be passed down from generation to generation and witness the changes of history. This is the greatest significance of literature."
The bell rang at the right time, Huang Xinghuo announced the end of get out of class, and the students filed out.
Huang Xinghuo packed his bag, and the students came up to him to discuss enthusiastically, and he answered them one by one. When he walked out of the classroom door, he ran into Zhong Junmin who was coming towards him. They both turned their heads and passed by each other.

Wang Zixu was far away from the university campus and would not go back in his known future, so he knew nothing about this grand occasion.
He had just finished a boring report and sent it to the leader's office. On his way back to his own office, he heard a voice coming from the door next to him, mentioning his name:
"...I mean Wang Zixu is not as great as he claims. Shen Qingfeng has already said that he has no works. Our Xiao Diao is the one who has real works and has published them. How can we view this evaluation..."
Wang Zixu stopped.
