Everyone was very friendly when they saw the old professor, because he was indeed a respectable and lovely person.
He is usually not very well-dressed, and sometimes he is late. Every time he is late, he blushes and apologizes to the students, so everyone feels that he is very close to us, a familiar person who lives around us.
But on this day, the old professor was wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
Her hair was neatly combed and her leather shoes were polished.
Just when everyone came up curiously to ask the old professor what was going on today, the class bell rang.
The old professor said seriously: "Class is over, everyone should go back to their seats."
I'm not usually a person who likes to join in the fun, so I just sat in my seat and didn't move.
Wait until everyone is seated.
The old professor took off his glasses, wiped them, and said to everyone with a smile: "Students, do you want to know why I am dressed so well today?"
When the students heard this, they all said with smiles: "I don't know."
Some students who are usually very lively even said: "Professor, are you going to meet your wife?!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and the atmosphere in the teacher was very lively.
The old professor kept looking at everyone with a smile and was not angry.
After a while, he said: "You guessed it right, I want to find my wife."
Already."
The classmates burst into laughter.
I was laughing too, but when I saw a girl with a worried look on her face, I heard the difference in the old professor's words.
So I stopped smiling and raised my hand to ask what happened.
But the old professor ignored me and signaled everyone to be quiet.
After a while, the class became quiet again.
The old professor picked up his pen and wrote four big characters on the crystal blackboard.
"Life-long learning"!
As a talent of the older generation, the old professor still does not use any auxiliary software even in today's high-tech classrooms, but his words are more powerful than the programmed fonts.
After writing these four characters, the old professor turned around and looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Would any of my classmates be willing to get up and tell me what the main courses are in the Business Department of our Hongfei College?"
This question is strange.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering why the professor asked such a boring question.
And I... finally realized the answers to all these questions, but before I could get up, the girl stood up and answered: "Currently, our freshman majors include political economics, "Das Kapital", and Western economics.
Statistics, international economics, business management and macro business theory.”
She finished.
There was silence in the classroom.
No one applauded her, and many people even looked disgusted.
I looked at her with the same admiration as always, and admired her enthusiasm for learning.
The old professor also looked at her, and after a while he nodded in approval and said: "Okay, okay, okay, Xiaoya said it very well. We in the business department have to learn a lot of things, and they are very complicated, but in general, they are all
It's about the economy." After saying that, he motioned for Xiaoya to sit down.
Xiaoya sat down, but the process was very slow. I could see clearly that she was crying, with tears on the back of her hands. But because she was sitting in the first row, no one noticed.
The old professor coughed and repeated what he just said.
"It's all about the economy..."
When the students saw this scene, they couldn't help but started talking quietly.
I couldn't bear it, but I wanted to get up several times, but I didn't have the courage.
After a while, the old professor suddenly asked: "Students, if... one day, our society no longer needs economics, then... what should we do?"
Don’t need economics?
Everyone looked at each other, and the discussion became louder and louder.
I closed my eyes and wanted to escape from all this...
"Hmm? Classmates? Can anyone let go of their imagination and imagine what we should do when economics is no longer needed in this society?"
I received a question again, and the discussion in the classroom became much quieter. A boy stood up and said, "What can we do? Let's go home and farm!"
"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed when they heard this.
I also laughed, but it was a forced smile.
The old professor also laughed: "That's right! A living person cannot suffocate to death. Even if there is no economics, we can still go back to farming to support ourselves!"
The male student who stood up to answer chuckled, and then said: "But professor, didn't you say that pure assumptions are meaningless, not to mention...our land was taken over by the state when our grandfather was there.
Now if you really ask me to go back to farm, I will be really helpless!"
This statement is both practical and playful.
The classmates all laughed again.
The old professor also laughed, but this time, there were tears in his laughter.
Some attentive classmates appeared and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Professor? What's wrong with you?"
The old professor waved his hand: "It's okay, kids, it's okay, everything will be fine."
Not only was this comfort ineffective, it actually made more people doubt the meaning of today's class.
But the old professor didn't give everyone a chance to speak, so he lowered his voice and said, "Students, I came here today to tell you two things."
My heart skipped a beat, and my uneasiness grew.
"The first thing... what I just said is not a pure hypothesis, but a pattern that has become a fact."
"What?" The boy who just stood up to answer was dumbfounded, and the classroom exploded after a brief period of calm.
"The second thing!" The old professor's voice was raised a lot, and the classroom suddenly became quiet again.
Everyone looked at the old professor on the stage in disbelief. Some people were confused, while others were panicked.
"The second thing... Today, I'm here to say goodbye to everyone. Starting today, all courses in our 'Hongfei' College have been cancelled. Students, you no longer need to work hard, because society is no longer
Economics is no longer needed, at least for a long time...So, I hope everyone can return to their families as soon as possible and enjoy this last good time..."
Before the old professor finished speaking, he was already taken away by armed men who rushed into the classroom.
The students were frightened, and some girls were so frightened that they cried.
Only she and I sat in our seats and waited until we were forcibly taken away...
On the fifth day after the incident, I was picked up by my father.
I thought that such a slow life would last forever... but I didn't expect that the storm came so suddenly... and destroyed everything in one night.
I started to rethink life, and it seemed like I suddenly understood a lot.
But there is still a problem bothering me.
That’s… “Why do we evolve?”
Is it an inevitable result or a paranoid disaster?
