When did the gap between people begin?
No wonder the children of wealthy families don't play with phones; it turns out there are many things in the world that are more fun than phones. I came across a video where a little girl said she wanted to touch the clouds, and her parents took her up in a helicopter. The comments were filled with exclamations, realizing that the real turning point in life is not the college entrance examination, but rather the amniotic fluid.
How can a decade of hard study compete with three generations of business? While someone is skiing in the Alps for their coming-of-age ceremony at eighteen, you are working on an assembly line in an electronics factory on your coming-of-age day. When parents from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai take their children to Guizhou to experience ethnic customs, perhaps the children in Guizhou are taking a green train to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai to experience the working life on the assembly line.
The hierarchy of this world is like a buffet restaurant; some are sipping red wine with steak on the upper level, while others are gnawing on steamed buns with pickles in the basement.
The most heart-wrenching comparison I've seen is that the entertainment options for the children of the rich include Antarctic research, world travel, and skydiving, while the biggest adventure for ordinary children is playing mobile games like battle royale. It's not that poor kids love playing with phones more; it's just that the cost of experiencing the world is too high.
A netizen shared a particularly heart-wrenching experience: when a child from a county school was peering through the glass to look at the exhibits, students from an international school next door were explaining the bronze casting techniques to tourists. The teacher leading them had red eyes and said: it's not that we can't teach; it's that there's nothing to teach.
In our physics class, we can only rely on imagination to discuss circuit diagrams, while students at a certain middle school in Beijing were already using 3D printing technology to recreate the Sanxingdui artifacts during their science and technology festival.
This world has never had a level starting line; some are born standing in the center of Rome, while we expend half our lives just to walk out of the beginner's village.
