British writer

My friend Xiao Huijian:

Recently, I came across a series of masterpieces. The meaning of the writing is beyond the dust, and it discusses the rise and fall of world civilization in a simple way. It is a model of sociology.

I can't sleep at night and benefit a lot.

...

While reading the telegram sent by Chiron, Bernard Shaw sighed,

Unexpectedly, the "Manchester Guardian" has been sold to Gothenburg, which is really unexpected.

Moreover, according to the meaning of the telegram, Chi Lun seems to have plans to go to England, saying that he wants to make friends with the author Lu, and if possible, introduce each other as close friends.

Bernard Shaw couldn't help but smile wryly,

Qi Lun must have seen Lu Shi's sophisticated writing, and regarded Lu Shi as a certain MP who occupied a seat in the Palace of Westminster, so he was willing to be a lackey.

If he knew that Lu Shi was just a young Chinese student studying abroad, he didn't know how he would feel.

Of course, apprenticeship is not reliable,

Because Lu Shi has enough "students" now.

Over time, the influence of "Guns, Germs and Steel" gradually fermented, and students of London Political Science and Economics produced clippings of "Manchester Guardian", and some even circulated manuscripts.

If this goes on like this, Lu Shi's influence will surpass Bernard Shaw, the school supervisor.

George Bernard Shaw put away the telegram and moved his gaze to the right,

On his right hand, a dozen copies of "Manchester Guardian" were neatly arranged, occupying two-thirds of the desk area.

Every newspaper is filled with annotations in pencil.

During this period of time, he has been catching up on reading, and the more he reads, the more amazed at Lu Shi's knowledge and knowledge.

Such high-end interdisciplinary scholars are more than enough to teach in universities.

It's just Lu Shi's identity...

Bernard Shaw was distressed, and suddenly felt that the office was a bit stuffy, so he decided to go for a walk to change his mood.

Universities in 1900 and modern universities are not the same concept at all, and the environment is very different:

No well-manicured lawn,

There are no statues of great men,

There is no canteen where pig feed is distributed centrally.

The only things that can be obtained are office buildings, teaching buildings and libraries.

Bernard Shaw walked towards the library.

Along the road, students in twos and threes gathered together, wearing thick overcoats, sitting on the base of the wall or under a tree, studying handwritten pamphlets, completely ignoring the inspection of the school supervisor.

Bernard Shaw slowed down, listening to what the students were discussing,

"Lu believes that plants grown by humans are not conducive to individuals growing in the wild. Why?"

"It's very simple... um... such as wheat, the efficiency of wheat spreading its seeds is very low, but because of this, it is beneficial to human collection, planting, and cultivation."

"Then what Lu means is that the will of nature dominates the survival of the fittest, but human will makes this survival of the fittest disappear. Therefore, the definitions of 'excellent' and 'inferior' are not so absolute."

"Well...why do I feel that your heresy is reasonable."

...

The content of the discussion was too floating, and George Bernard Shaw could hardly keep up.

After listening for a while, he finally couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "When you are thinking about problems, try not to understand things in a personified way."

The students looked up, seemingly confused.

Bernard Shaw continued: "For example, when you say 'natural will', this is a kind of personification. Nature has no will. Survival of the fittest is a realistic and cold process, and there is no need to use that kind of embellishment."

He himself felt strange after saying that,

It is outrageous for a playwright to say that embellishments are unnecessary.

The students looked at each other,

Suddenly someone asked: "Mr. Chancellor, did what you said just now be in Lu's mind?"

Bernard Shaw is not the roundworm in Lu Shi's stomach, of course he doesn't know,

"This... I can't say."

As soon as the voice fell, the student directly said: "Then what you said doesn't make any sense."

It doesn't make any sense...

any sense...

Meaning...

ah……

George Bernard Shaw almost lost his breath on the spot, and he was almost on the verge of taking a quick-acting heart-relief pill.

As a result, the fatal blow was yet to come,

The student said again: "Mr. Chancellor, you are loved and admired by everyone because you are a playwright who has written a lot. As for biology, history, geography, and sociology, you should not easily publish high-level opinions."

The little partner on the side lowered his voice and reminded: "Speak slowly."

The former didn't care,

"Mr. Chancellor is a gentleman and won't care about this."

Bernard Shaw vomited blood, but there was nothing he could do about it, and he had to be very magnanimous,

He smiled and waved his hands,

"It's okay, academic discussion of this kind of thing, there will inevitably be some conflicts between words."

As he spoke, Bernard Shaw chuckled,

"And there is nothing wrong with what you said just now. I am not good at biology and geography. But to correct you, I still have some say in history and sociology."

There was a trace of humbleness in these words, as if trying to find a place for himself.

The students exchanged glances,

Someone said: "Then... Mr. Supervisor, I have a question."

A bad premonition rose in Bernard Shaw's heart,

But this is the end of the story, I can only bite the bullet and say it,

He said, "You tell me, I'll try my best to answer."

The student immediately spoke up: "Lu mentioned in the article how geographical factors shape society, and gave examples from Spain and the Inca Empire. Mr. Chancellor, I'm Spanish, and I don't even know about those..."

At first glance, it is to ask about the history of Spain's conquest of the Inca Empire.

How could George Bernard Shaw answer that?

His eyes twinkled,

"By the way, you came to study in London from Spain. I remember your name is Ni...Ni..."

The students took the babble,

"My name is Nikati Nikolic, and this is my friend, Thierry Solomon."

Bernard Shaw showed a gratified smile, patted the shoulders of the two young men respectively, and said, "Well, very good! You two are very good! With such a studious spirit and a thirst for knowledge, I am not afraid that you will fail in the future."

Nikolic and Solomon looked dumbfounded,

"Mr. Chancellor..."

Bernard Shaw waved his hand,

"Okay, let's continue discussing, I won't bother you here."

After finishing speaking, he hurried to the office.

Back in the office, Bernard Shaw suddenly sat down in the armchair, took out his pipe and took a deep breath, then wiped off the sweat from his forehead.

"Huh~"

He let out a long breath and made up his mind.

No matter what, people like Lu Shi must be kept in Great Britain!

Bernard Shaw took out a pen and paper, and drafted a telegram:

"Honor Sir Wodehouse..."

John Wodehouse, 1st Earl of Kimberley,

Since 1847, Wodehouse has served as a member of the House of Lords as a hereditary nobleman, and gradually accumulated political chips. He is an outstanding politician and the backbone of the Liberal Party.

At the same time, Wodehouse is also the honorary president of the University of London Union.

Generally speaking, Bernard Shaw doesn't like to have contact with people in the House of Lords, but now it's up to personal preference to decide,

His students need the Headmaster to put down his face!

George Bernard Shaw's pen is sincere,

Dear Sir Wodehouse:

Recently, I came across a series of masterpieces. The meaning of the writing is beyond the dust, and it discusses the rise and fall of world civilization in a simple way. It is a model of sociology.

I can't sleep at night and benefit a lot.

...

"Ah Choo!"

Qi Lun, who was traveling across the ocean, sneezed.
