Domestic academic qualifications are basically useless, and the people have basically come back to their senses.
Domestic education has gradually depreciated from the 1980s when it could change one's fate to the point where one has to work for a living. In the 1990s, I remember that when a college student came to a factory or bureau, such as the obscure college of XX, he would be allocated a house after working for three years. Most people in their thirties have houses and children, and can manage people. Now, people who have graduated for two or three years and are doing well and not relying on their parents have to pay the rent of one deposit and three installments, and they don't rent the entire house. Not to mention three generations in business, just one household that has been relocated in the countryside of Shanghai is enough for you to struggle for several lifetimes. Out-of-town college students pay social security to support the elderly in Shanghai, and then pay rent to support their grandchildren. After saving money for a few years, they will take over their old and dilapidated houses so that they can move to improved houses in Central. The key is that young people who can take over are considered good. How many people can break the deadlock on their own every year?
Many people are so stupid when doing the questions that they think it doesn't matter whether something is difficult or not, and it doesn't matter how many people are screened out. The real meaning is how much value can be created. To put it bluntly, how much money can you make with your education or after ten years of apprenticeship? If you really don't care about making money, you should learn from the rich and do art, carving words on rice and taking boats in bottles, focusing on self-cultivation. If you want to consider making money, you have to consider how much money you can make in your entire life cycle after studying for so many years. In the end, if the money you make in your entire life cycle is not as much as that earned in a breakfast restaurant, then there is no need to read this book from 7 am to 22 pm every day.
Many seniors who work in factories and construction sites are criticizing their own majors. It is because of this that their lives have been ruined by a stupid major. Now Zhang Xuefeng is also famous because of this. With the current situation in China, most people go to college to get out of poverty. Since it is from an economic perspective, you have to consider the money and time you invest. If you can get a low score in the college entrance examination and study in a 211 2+2 cooperative school, and then study for a master's degree in Hong Kong in five years, you don't need to suffer and study for a 985 undergraduate and master's degree for seven years to make money in the Greater Bay Area.
If you want to know the salary of science and engineering majors, just look at Huawei and BYD. Each of them clearly marked their salary. The 54 universities that Huawei benchmarked against also represent the top science and engineering employment strength in China. If you didn't get into these 54 universities, don't say that their master's degree is not good. You can't get into Huawei even if they get a master's degree in one year. The best you can get is Huawei OD.
If you study science and engineering at a second-tier university, given the current job market, and your family can’t afford to support you or you can’t go abroad to get a degree, it’s better for you to start learning cooking or masonry as hard as you study in high school after graduating from junior high school. Chefs and decorators who have some skills can earn more than most college students, and don’t say much about the working environment and social security. You can only get this kind of working environment if you study civil engineering and mechanical engineering. Leke now has a lot of coaches with university degrees. If you knew you had to be a coach, it would be better to enter the industry directly after graduating from junior high school.
As for liberal arts, what Zhang Xuefeng said is correct. Liberal arts and even finance-related majors are all service industries. Many people have studied for several years without figuring out who they are serving. If you haven't figured out how to make a living when you graduate from college, your future situation will most likely be worse than that of science and engineering students who rent a house.
Those who start taking the civil service exam in their sophomore or junior year are considered to have figured out who they are serving, while the rest can only rely on connections to get into the business. Domestic education will not teach you how to do business, nor how to surrender to the bosses, or even how to take the civil service exam. To put it bluntly, it does not teach anything that is conducive to liberal arts students making money and settling down, and only talks about things that cannot be put into practice.
Most graduates who major in economics and finance work as tellers. The educational level of bank tellers in Suzhou has increased from technical secondary school to master's degree in just a few decades. The funniest thing is that banks only look at academic qualifications, but later promotion and income all depend on performance. How do you get performance? You just pull connections and mix in the field. A master's degree who can only do questions is useless except for giving pensions to retired uncles and aunts and tricking them into buying financial products. The core ability of most students in finance and economics to find jobs in the future is to pull connections, attract deposits and make loans, and the schools don't teach you how to do this. Except for a few top schools, most people who study finance, whether you are an undergraduate or a master, will spend their entire lives selling financial products in banks near XX New Village, and a few years ago they had to promote ETC.
The same is true for law in the liberal arts. What you learn in school is useless except for passing the bar exam. What law firms lack now are case sources and court relationships, not people who do odd jobs and run errands. How many big lawyers drink themselves to death for case sources and court relationships, female lawyers sleep with people in the court and surrender, and male lawyers pay for dinner parties to help others solve problems. If you want to make money as a lawyer, how can you develop and maintain the above two relationships besides the relationships you bring with you? If you look at the income of law students after working for a few years, you will find that those who hang out in clubs at school, drink and pick up girls everywhere, and do not do their job properly but can pass the bar exam can beat those who study hard in the library.
Banks want to make money, law firms want to make money and relationships, the government wants to attract investment and collect taxes, manufacturing and even barbershops want to make money, unless you have skills that are so good that you will go bankrupt without them, otherwise you are just a handy tool, and tools are cheap and easy to use. It is better to figure it out as soon as possible and make a vase, at least the place where the vase stays is cleaner and brighter than the tool room. Of course, you can also make a vase with academic qualifications. The Stanford guy who went to Suzhou before could actually be a vase in an overseas study agency, and he might earn a million a year. This kind of academic vase is actually similar to an Olympic gold medal, with no practical use. Although there are some skills and connections, most of them are just for show.
If you are not prepared to take the lead and do not have the ability to make money for the company, you should honestly find a way to earn more than a blue-collar worker or a tutor. If a person has studied for so many years and passed so many exams with elimination rates, but in the end there is no income, then you should think about what you studied. If you don't consider making money, you can do art or music, there is no need to waste time on practice questions. If you consider making money, practicing barbecue for ten years is more useful than studying liberal arts.
If you just spend ten years honing your barbecue skills and become the best in a five-kilometer radius, it will be no problem for you to earn two or three hundred thousand a year in 24 years. Your ten years of hard study are not as good as the barbecue you make for me. For example, Bai Rong at the south gate of Feigong is famous for his barbecue and there are queues every day. The old man in Japan who makes sushi is really good at making sushi and makes a lot of money after he becomes famous. It is better to graduate from junior high school and practice blue-collar skills. If you practice from 6:50 in the morning to 10:00 in the evening for six years, your cumin will look better than others. If the customers are happy, they will really pay for it. If you can do the questions at the level of a second-tier university, it will be difficult to find a job that pays the provident fund in 2024. You will probably be a salesperson with no basic salary.
In ancient China, the saying that only by studying hard can one achieve success was just deceiving oneself. Fan Jin, who failed to pass the imperial examination and became an official, was hung up and scolded by a butcher, and his family had no food to eat and had to rely on the butcher for help.
Before he passed the imperial examination, Fan Jin was despised by everyone. Now, his academic qualifications cannot change his or her own or even his family's financial situation. He is no different from a sixty-year-old old student.
In China, many people do not work after graduating from college, but take full-time postgraduate entrance exams and civil servant exams, which shows that domestic academic qualifications are useless except for further examinations. Moreover, the income of civil servants in some central and western regions is so low that after studying so hard for so long, it is difficult to earn 100,000 yuan a year. You can't buy a battery car or a mobile phone without relying on your parents.
