In fact, compared with Zhou Ying, the heroine in the play and the heroine in the market, Li Hongzhang, a legendary political hero, attracted me more in this play. When it comes to the grandeur of ambition, the ups and downs of prosperity and the opening and closing of ideas, few celebrities in the late Qing Dynasty can even compare with Li Hongzhang. His personal growth history and struggle history are simply living inspirational textbooks for modern young people!

The general impression is that Li Hongzhang is a late bloomer, but it is not. Li Hongzhang was already a scholar at the age of twenty-four. At the age of 27, he was awarded seven titles of editor of imperial academy. At the age of thirty, he went south to fight, and at the age of thirty-four, he was awarded three titles as a provincial judge. The governor of a province is second-rate. Although the title of provincial judge is not true, it is also third-rate. To paraphrase the present words, you can enjoy the treatment of deputy provincial level. With a history of more than 200 years in the Qing Dynasty, thousands of scholars and academicians, how many people can achieve the above three qualities? Especially the Han people, who are not as good as ministers, were suppressed everywhere, and they were lucky to get five products and four products and write them on tombstones until they died in their fifties and sixties. For example, Li Wenan, Li Hongzhang's father, was a top student in high school in his thirties and later became an official in Beijing. Until his death in his fifties, he was still a doctor of five points.
So how do you make yourself famous as soon as possible? Li Hongzhang's experience is worth learning from.

First of all, set up ambition and aim high. At the age of 20, Li Hongzhang wrote a poem when he went to Beijing to take the exam: "My husband only praised Wu Gou, and his spirit was higher than 100 feet. Who has written a history of 10,000 years, but he is looking for a seal three thousand miles away. " It can be seen how ambitious and ambitious he is. A man without ambition is like being in Guangzhou. If he doesn't go in the direction of Beijing, he will never get to Beijing.
The second is to seek wealth and risk. 185 1 year, the Taiping rebels rose up and swept across the southeast, and finally went north to the west twice, threatening the Qing court. Others regard the battlefield as an execution ground, and it is too late to hide. However, Li Hongzhang resolutely gave up the idleness of Beijing officials, joined the army, and went south with bullets. There are dangers and opportunities in war. It is precisely because he dared to take risks and seize the opportunity that Li Hongzhang won the rank of provincial judge with third-class achievements in more than three years, which laid a solid foundation for the promotion of governor, governor and Jin University.

The third is to judge the situation and eat crabs. China's nearly 3,000-year-old feudal society remained stable until the end of Qing Dynasty, when foreigners invented the steam engine, and ships replaced sailboats, and the ocean age came. It is impossible for the country to be repeatedly knocked open by foreign ships and guns, and it is impossible to close the door with the remnants. Li Hongzhang is keenly aware of the changes that have not happened in the past 3,000 years, and proposes to create miracles that have not happened in the past 3,000 years, so as to enrich the army and save the country and the people. Therefore, after the Huai Army entered Shanghai, while strategizing and defending Shanghai and Pingwu, it introduced western learning, purchased western equipment, revitalized Westernization, created Shanghai manufacturing, and laid a century-old industrial foundation for China.
Fourth, read widely and keep pace with the times. In the 70 years of the late Qing Dynasty, the world pattern changed greatly, but officials and ministers of the Qing court were still dreaming of going to heaven, waiting for countries to come to Korea. After the country was blown away, I panicked, thinking that if I closed my eyelids, I would be out of sight and out of mind. But Li Hongzhang stepped forward and took the initiative to face the challenge. Starting from the real industry, Xu Tu expanded itself.
Why do others know nothing, only Li Hongzhang keeps pace with the times, and after making extraordinary achievements, does something unprecedented? This is related to Li Hongzhang's unique vision. So where does the unique vision come from? Nature comes from reading. Li Hongzhang has "four eyes": first, two eyebrows and two eyes, reading Chinese, and learning from the past; The second is to learn foreign languages with both ears, read Europe and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Pethick William N was an American cavalry officer who took part in the American Civil War. After leaving the battlefield, he came to China as the vice consul of the American Consulate in Tianjin. As Li Hongzhang settled in Zhili and Beiyang, Pethick William N was attracted by his personality charm as soon as he contacted Li Hongzhang. He resolutely resigned from the vice consul's iron rice bowl and became Li Hongzhang's private secretary in the Governor's Shuaifu and the teacher of Li's children. Pethick William N is a language genius. He knows not only English, but also French, German, Spanish and other languages. When he is free, Li Hongzhang sits down and listens to him translate and read literary and historical classics and philosophers' works in various countries in Chinese. Over the past 20 years, Li Hongzhang has "read" more than 800 European and American works through Pesik William N. It is such a rich knowledge reserve that Li Hongzhang has a clear understanding of the world, grasped the general trend of the world, and achieved miracles that others have never dreamed of for 3,000 years.
The fifth is to recruit talented people to do great things and not compete with idle people. Li Hongzhang worked for the government and did countless great things for the court. Everything depends on people's efforts, and it takes a lot of talent to do great things. Do things with your hands, not your mouth. You can talk with your mouth, but you can't do it with your hands No matter whether you are born in the second list (a juren plus a scholar) or famous in the ruling and opposition circles, you can't get into the eyes of Li Hongzhang. Therefore, Li is rich in many talents, such as strategist, industrialist, businessman, scientist, translator, diplomat, engineer and so on. These talents are not well-known in scientific research. The reason is also very simple. If you want to get into high school, you must work hard, find chapters and sentences, and write them in small letters. How can you have time and energy to master practical knowledge? It is precisely because of this that the officials from the two lists in China and North Korea suggested that they hold a grudge and easily go to the Senate to disintegrate Li Hongzhang. Li Hongzhang "listened" to more than 800 European and American works in his life, created more than 800 works that were the first in China and the first in Asia, and was illegally involved for more than 800 times, which just corresponded to the saying that something was made out of nothing. But Li Hongzhang's life will never be carefree. People like to be involved. I just rolled up my sleeves and worked hard. Anyway, I can't be wrong again, at least the queen mother knows it.

Sixth, it is useful and will never be lost. Li Hongzhang is famous all over the world for his great achievements and slander all over the world. His courtiers wanted to eat his flesh and skin, and he never stopped shouting and screaming, but why was he safe from beginning to end? Even if Weng Tonghe published personal grievances and deceived Guangxu, Li Hongzhang was in a hurry to send troops to North Korea and lost to Japan, which had been planning for a long time. He suddenly became the length of an army, with no rank and no head, and no one could move a finger. The reason is that the court can not do without Li Hongzhang, and it is difficult for him to stand up at the critical moment. If Cixi listened to the courtiers, she killed Li Hongzhang and went to Eight-Nation Alliance to enter Beijing. Cixi and Guangxu fled to the west, and the country had no owner and no one came forward to mediate. China had already been dismembered and destroyed. On the other hand, Weng Tonghe, a father and son emperor, had one's intimate disciples and followers all over the imperial court and was in power, which was almost inseparable from Guangxu. Why did they end up being swept out of the house and unhappy? Nothing more than its incompetence, incompetence and failure. After all, you can be an imperial envoy, but you can be a minister. You are very talented. There is not much in the country, and there is no shortage. ?
Therefore, people in the world, don't be afraid of being used. When it is really useless, it is no longer far away from being abandoned.

It is no accident that Li Hongzhang can achieve great things. It is difficult to learn from his experience in dealing with people, put it into action and be a useful person. In this anxious era when everyone is eager for success and fame, instead of complaining about frustration all day, we should learn more from Li Hongzhang's wisdom of success: be ambitious, do practical things, have more experience, gain more courage, read more books and make more friends. When you have martial arts, people come uninvited.
