≺ Preamble≻
In the 80s and 90s, highly educated talents in the mainland were very scarce, and at that time, not to mention doctors, even going to an ordinary university was a height beyond the reach of many people, and this kind of talent could basically have a very good job.
However, it is unimaginable that in this context, there is a doctor of medicine from Peking University, who has been unemployed for 24 years and is still living on subsistence allowance!
He is Zhang Jinsheng, who was admitted to Peking University in 1992 as a graduate student and continued to study for a doctorate.
Why can't a medical doctor at Peking University find a job?
≺ "parasites" in the home ≻
Zhang Jinsheng was born in a rural family in Changde, Hunan Province, and his parents worked as farmers all year round and gave birth to six children.
Grandpa is a local "A chief" and the most prestigious person in the family, Zhang Jinsheng's name was taken by his grandfather, but he doesn't like this name, and always feels that there is a sense of feudal thought.
As the only male in the family and the person who has read the most books, Zhang Jinsheng not only failed to get ahead, but needed the help of his sisters to live.
first lived in the second sister Zhang Wenhua's house for nearly eleven years, and then lived in the eldest sister Zhang Baohua's house for a few years, but the sisters got married one after another and had children, and it was not a long-term solution to live with her younger brother.
The eldest sister runs a grain and oil store in the village, her son is naughty and frequently causes trouble, and the family spends a lot of money.
Maybe it's because the burden of life is too great, and my sister's attitude towards my younger brother is more of a helplessness than anger.
My sister couldn't figure out why my younger brother couldn't find a job after reading so many books, and even felt a little mentally ill.
Looking back more than ten years ago, his younger brother Zhang Jinsheng was the best young man in ten miles and eight towns.
≺ Doctors who can't get on the operating table ≻
Zhang Jinsheng has been fighting since he was a child, and he often beats gongs and drums at school to report the good news at home, and he took the first place in the exam, but in the year of the college entrance examination, Zhang Jinsheng played abnormally.
He was a few points away from the ideal school, and went to Hunan Medical University the next year after repeating, and was assigned to work in the hospital after graduation.
A doctor's job is to see patients and go to the operating room, but Zhang Jinsheng found that he had a disease - fainting blood!
On the operating table, he can't see the blurred flesh and blood of the human body, so he can only do some hands-on work, such as taking things, stitching, and removing stitches.
Perhaps in order to escape the hospital work, or perhaps to change the department for himself, in 1992, Zhang Jinsheng, who had worked for three years, was admitted to the graduate school of Peking University Health Science Center.
After finishing graduate school, he continued to escape from reality, ignoring the poverty of his family, and stayed in school to study for a doctorate.
Zhang Jinsheng didn't want to study for a doctorate at Peking University all the time, seeing that there were many ways out for his classmates around him, he saw the way to study abroad, and the UK was a good choice, but the ideal was very plump and the reality was very skinny.
At that time, it cost 200,000 yuan to study in the UK, which was an astronomical amount for Zhang Jinsheng's family.
The plan to go abroad is naturally impossible, and Zhang Jinsheng, who was hit, seemed to have changed overnight, the whole person was depressed, and what was even more terrifying was that he also had an indescribable disease.
Zhang Jinsheng found that he had lost his appetite, there was no oil in the food, and his brain was sometimes sober and sometimes confused, and after noticing the abnormality of his body, he applied to the school for a leave of absence.
His parents and sister took him to see a doctor in his hometown, but they couldn't see the reason, so they could only blame the situation on depression, and because he had been suspended for too long, in 2010, Peking University dealt with Zhang Jinsheng according to his withdrawal.
After dropping out of school, Zhang Jinsheng did not look for a job, but every time a company threw an olive branch to him, he would hesitate repeatedly and then refuse, and finally he was idle at home.
≺ The current situation is embarrassing ≻
Is it true that he doesn't get bored when he rests at home every day? There are very few people in the countryside who have the same education as him, and others are more introverted and don't like to talk, so what does he do at home?
Not to mention, the free time at home really allowed him to find the direction of the future.
By chance, Zhang Jinsheng saw the advanced mathematics textbook and was very curious about the knowledge in it.
Since then, Zhang Jinsheng has searched for books related to mathematics, studied them in depth, and inquired about a master of mathematics named Chern Shiingshen at Tsinghua University.
Zhang Jinsheng's heart was not recognized by society and family, and he decided to go to Beijing again to meet this math master.
The family was very supportive when they heard that Zhang Jinsheng had a goal, and the second sister even took 1,000 yuan directly from home to give him the travel expenses, hoping that his younger brother could find a way out in Beijing.
Ironically, the 1,000 yuan was lost, and when the second sister's family saw his brother again three years later, he was covered in rags, almost like a beggar.
What happened to him during his trip to Beijing, and why did he live like this three years later?
It turned out that Zhang Jinsheng, who arrived in Beijing, did not have the opportunity to meet the master of mathematics, and did not even enter the door of Tsinghua University.
But he never gave up, continued to wander in Beijing, sleeping in parks and bridges at night, and asking classmates for relief during the day, until he was found by the shelter and sent home by the relevant departments.
Zhang Jinsheng's graduation certificate and ID card were all lost, and the local department had no choice but to make special arrangements to re-register him with a rural household registration, and there was also a special hardship subsidy, so that he would not be without food in the future.
In addition to the annual poverty subsidy of 5,000 yuan, Zhang Jinsheng can also receive a nursing subsidy of 2,500 yuan per year, which is not bad.
Now Zhang Jinsheng still has no job and lives in a small house rented by his sister, but fortunately, Zhang Jinsheng is okay with housework and can keep himself clean every day, will he feel that his life is wasted? After all, the starting point of Peking University Ph.D. is too high.
But Zhang Jinsheng didn't think so, he didn't think that he was a pity in his life, but he had taken too many detours, and he didn't like to take the straight road.
≺ Conclusion ≻
"Take off Kong Yiji's robe", which was once popular on the Internet, may not be unreasonable now.
Times have changed, and today, with the improvement of per capita quality education, we can no longer only talk about academic qualifications, nor can we forcibly link academic qualifications with work.
