"China Economic Weekly" Tri Xiaolin Silan | Beijing reported "Cultural Revolution" 10, China's talent selection system and education fair was destroyed.  In the 1977, the restoration of the college entrance examination allowed the Chinese to regain the right to receive higher education through a relatively fair system. October 21, 1977, the national radio broadcast the resumption of college entrance Examination news, and revealed that this year's college entrance examination will be carried out nationwide within one months.  Unlike past practice, the 1977 college entrance examination was not in summer, but in early winter.  That year, Wang Monghui 17 years old, attend the college entrance examination was admitted to Tsinghua. Wang Monghui attended the Department of Architecture, Tsinghua University, after graduation and stay in school, a stay in Tsinghua is 15 years.  During this period, he served as Assistant Dean of Architectural College of Tsinghua University, Deputy secretary of the party committee, and obtained master and doctorate degrees from Tsinghua University.  2011 National two sessions, has been Guangdong province Yunfu Party committee secretary of the Wang Monghui, in the "China Economic weekly" reporter introduced himself and his alma mater Tsinghua's story, the tone is still full of affectionate. "Some students are older than me 10 years old" "to tell the truth, I really did not think that they can go to Tsinghua, at that time, as long as there is a book read is very good." "Mention of Tsinghua University, Wang Monghui," I read a book in Tsinghua, also taught the book, stayed in Tsinghua for 15 years, now, leaving Tsinghua has been 18 years. But Tsinghua is always the kindest place in my eyes.  Wang Monghui that Tsinghua University teaches him how to behave, how to do things, has a great impact on the formation of his outlook on life and values. "At that time, our country is very poor, coupled with our children in the south of the North climate is not adapted to life, some are not accustomed to, but quickly by the fast-paced learning life replaced." As just restored the college entrance examination, the daily teaching work needs rapid recovery and promotion, plus 11 years without the college entrance examination, teachers and students are holding Yigujin, in the tension and novelty of the educational atmosphere, who are unwilling to be outdone, learning the momentum is very high. "It is worth mentioning is that, because is to restore the college entrance examination" Year One, Wang Monghui University students show a rare "diversity", first of all, students of the age difference is very large, Wang Monghui students, there are more than his teenage "big Brother." Second, the students ' personal experience is also very different, some people before the university is a worker, some teachers, some soldiers, some of the youth queue.  There have been some interesting phenomena, a class, a once was a secondary school teacher, and now, A is B sleeping on the upper berth of the students. "Our classmates have quite a part of the teacher, the age level is more concentrated is 1950-1956 years between birth." Wang Monghui told reporters, based on these differences, and because of the delay for many years, we read the momentum are very sufficient, are clock learning. "A great debate" of "design" according to Wang Monghui recalls, "The Cultural Revolution" just ended, Tsinghua University, there are many teachers are three generations together in 10 square meters of the house, living conditions are very difficult. The intellectuals were Ching that year. I just got into the clear.China, many teachers because of the "Cultural Revolution" period was decentralized to Jiangxi, where infected with schistosomiasis, the physical condition is very bad. "But we are fortunate because the teachers we meet are the best and most responsible teachers in the day." Wang Monghui Tone excitedly told reporters, at that time, squatting barn "Ching" finally saw the light of the light, these teachers work enthusiasm to get the maximum release. "At that time the teacher, work up not life, hate can not one night to delay 10 years to find back." Moreover, their love for students, the kind of meticulous care, now think, still make people nose sour. "New thoughts are sprouting and germinal in the Tsinghua Garden," he said. Western Architectural design concept, also in that period became bold, in the teacher's inspiration, some students began to try in their own design, into the western architectural elements.  A classmate, because of the design of a Western-style railway station, but in the department sparked a big debate. "Chinese traditional architecture is mainly about the plane layout of the middle axis symmetry and orderly ethics, in order to form a group layout in the plane, the formation of traditional Chinese architecture unique character." As China's architects, should not abandon the tradition, learning Western? is the railway station, so eccentric and so westernized, flattering to capitalism? For a time, Tsinghua Architectural department teachers and students have published insights, a big debate on this. Wang Monghui Frankly, this phenomenon was not surprising in China at that time.  We are aiming at, in fact, should not design Chinese or Western-style railway station, but because of this design and show the new trend of thought. "More than 30 years of reform and opening-up, China's architecture has been blooming and various architectural styles abound, refreshing." Looking back at the great debate of the year, we can feel the tremendous changes that have taken place in China as a result of reform and opening-up. "The party secretary's" Tsinghua style "low-key life, self-improvement, generosity and tolerance--now, Yunfu, Guangdong Province, the party secretary of the Wang Monghui, the Tsinghua traces are still evident.  His knowledge of Yunfu is deep, and he is very confident about the future of Yunfu. "Yunfu is a city with special characteristics in Guangdong Province, and after working here, my understanding and understanding of Yunfu have been deepened." Wang Yang, secretary of the YUNFU has an evaluation, he believes that Yunfu ' main business, rich, ecological good, simple folk customs, great potential, promising. This evaluation is in fact the direction of our future efforts.  "Wang Monghui thinks. Yunfu Although in the first round of reform and opening-up did not go ahead, but we see Yunfu now formed a national largest stone processing and sales base. From the late 80 's end to now has formed more than 3,000 stone enterprises.  The private enterprises in these enterprises reached more than 95%. "I have worked in the Pearl River Delta for some years and I know very well that the development model of the PRD is Yunfu." I think the development advantage of Yunfu lies in the advantage of late-developing, in fact, Yunfu has already possessed such conditions objectively, the stateHome development strategy has also changed. From the past to let some people, a part of the region first rich to common prosperity. This provides us with the opportunity: because the rules have changed, we have the opportunity to catch up. "Wang Monghui Frankly, as party secretary, there is pressure, there is a responsibility," I now the biggest wish, is through our efforts to let a people live a happy life. To this end, we will do our best to stick to the end. ”
