Recently, Zhong Fangrong, a graduate of Peking University who was called the "pet of the archaeological circle" by netizens, entered the physical examination of the campus recruitment of the Dunhuang Academy with the first score in the interview.
Who is Zhong Fangrong? You may be familiar with it. 4 years ago, this name "went viral" on the Internet.
In the summer of 2020, Zhong Fangrong was admitted to Peking University with a score of 676 in the college entrance examination, majoring in archaeology, which is considered "unpopular" in the eyes of most people. In the face of doubts and puzzlement, she only replied "I like it".
Four years later, Zhong Fangrong, who graduated with a bachelor's degree, has not changed her original intention, and is determined to continue to run to her love and start the next journey of her archaeology.
There are many young people like Zhong Fangrong who are persistently pursuing their dreams.
I have a dream that I can work towards to achieve.

When he was studying, his English grades were not good, but because of an English song, he gradually developed an interest in learning English.
After that, Yi Xun, whether he was studying secondary school or going to be a soldier, never let go of his love for English.
After being discharged from the army, he became a delivery man, and although the work was very hard, he still did not give up learning English.
Now Yi Xun can not only communicate with foreigners in fluent English when delivering food, but also shoot short English videos that have caused heated discussions on the Internet.
Netizens commented: "All greatness comes from a brave beginning. ”
What do we see from them?
Life is a marathon, and no one should be defined by the starting point.
Zhong Fangrong was admitted to Peking University from a small mountain village in Leiyang, Hunan, and Zhang Yapeng gave up his general high school to study secondary vocational school and was specially recruited as a college teacher...... These young people use their own personal experience to prove that identity, profession and education are not the key to defining life.
Life is a marathon, as long as you keep running, everyone has the potential to become that "dark horse".
Love and persistence make people move forward without fear of trouble.
"Ambition is far-reaching. Poor mountains are far from the sea, and there is no limit. ”
Love gives confidence and strength, but the path to pursuing love is not always easy. In her study and practice, Zhong Fangrong was also puzzled by various problems and doubted whether she was really suitable for this discipline; Zhang Yapeng once risked heat stroke during training, adapting to indoor temperatures of more than 40°C......
In addition to love, you also need the blessing of perseverance to survive the boring research and training day after day, and to overcome one unknown and challenging hurdle after another.
Young people break through prejudice and write wonderful lives with extraordinary courage.
It is not difficult to choose which path and career, but the difficult thing is to let go of the consideration of the cost of time and the measurement of monetary returns.
We are pleased to see that more and more young people have abandoned utilitarian values, stepped out of the worldly vision, and have both courage and responsibility in the choice of life path.
Young people in the new era are injecting vigorous vitality into the society with rich and diverse choices and down-to-earth cultivation.
They have dreams and have the courage to fight;
They are passionate and resolute;
They are not afraid of challenges and are indomitable.
These young people, well done!
