[自述]我在斐济工作的时间,在酒店住的时候,特意降级住到外国青年住的宿舍。对于在宿舍居住的外国男女青年,大家都觉得多人宿舍男女混住很习以为常。
期间我很吃惊的认识到,很多来自德国,瑞士,以色列19岁,20岁,22岁的女孩,或男孩一个人赚钱后,从家里坐二十多个小时的飞机,一个人到外国旅游。。。 要知道,这在中国的家庭是不可想象的,起码我认识人里面如此。
不像中国人一直都以学习成绩为重点,她们从小学会赚钱追寻自己想要的东西。应试教育虽有好坏,但是我觉得,对于中国来说能够自主产生像Airbnb,和Facebook的创业公司,在某种程度上禁锢思想的环境下,是很难实现的。 又如,虽然都是说粤语,对比一下广州和香港的地铁上的公共标语和宣传广告就可以知道,一个是多么的死板无趣,一个是多么的幽默,生动,让人看到不禁会心一笑。
同样我认为,因为教育,和环境的差异,很多外国人自少就开始在社会上历练同时经历更多,到18岁后离开父母。而中国人,很多是出来社会工作后脱离父母,才开始跌跌撞撞地成长,由于没有之前的历练来铺垫,会成长得更苦。
【粗略翻译有笔误】When I was working in Fiji, I tried to downgrade the level in the hotel and live in dormitory with other young foreign people. It seems that the foreign young men and women are all accustomed to live in the dormitory co-ed.. In the meanwhile ,I was surprised that a lot of
19, 20, 22 years old girls or men, who from Germany, Switzerland, Israel, making money, themselves, spending more than 20 hours of flight from home, travel to a foreign country himself. Its unbelievable while happening in Chinese young people. Unlike the Chinese young people have been taught to focus on academic performance, foreign young people learn to make money themselves since a child so that to pursue the thing they want. Whatever Exam-oriented education is good or bad, but I think its hard for Chinese to start up a company like Airbnb and Facebook from Chinese environment. As another example, although saying the same language, Cantonese,for guangzhou and Hong Kong people, contrasting the public signs and the advertisement on the subway in two cities, you will feel one is boring while another is so funny. Therefore, because the differences of education, and environment, many foreigners began to accumulate the experience from society since young and after 18 years they leave their parents. However, for the Chinese people, after starting the job for social and leave their parents, they grow in real meaning. Because there is no previous experience , they will grow bitter.
