A Chinese doctor from the Chinese Academy of Sciences resigned to open a B&B and said: “Spiritual wealth is greater than the anxiety of starting a business.” This move caused an uproar and discussion across the Internet, and the parents of the B&B owner also had different opinions. His mother was very happy to hear that she resigned to start a B&B. , I thought I was regarding to make a fortune, but my father criticized me: “I have read more than 20 years of books in vain.”

According to Chinese media reports, this B&B is located in Laoshan, Qingdao, Shandong. As soon as you open the door, you can see the sea. You can just lie in the room and watch the sunrise and starry sky. It just opened in August last year. The average price is RMB 2,500 (approximately NT$). 11,200 yuan) per night, which is quite expensive. Regarding abandoning his job at the Chinese Academy of Sciences to start a business, the owner of a B&B named Huang said that this was because “I gradually mightn’t find a way to improve my value. This path in the workplace made me more and more anxious, and I asked myself to make changes.” “

Boss Huang mentioned to the media that he was admitted to Fudan University in the college entrance examination, successfully admitted to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in his senior year, and then completed his master’s degree and PhD. All the majors he studied were filled in for him by his family. In other words, he looked glamorous before. A beautiful life is just the setting of others, not your own choice. However, he also admitted that according to ordinary people’s thinking, following getting a doctorate, one should engage in scientific research or teaching, or find employment in companies or corporate units. His classmates entered consulting companies following graduation and now have an annual salary of 800,000 to 900,000; Some have become mid- to high-level executives in “big factories” with annual salaries exceeding one million; others teach in very good universities and are very glamorous. These are all in line with normal people’s understanding of the future of a doctorate.

It’s a pity that a doctor wants to open a B&B. This is because academic qualifications are not the threshold for opening a B&B. Even his father, following hearing the news that he resigned to open a B&B, “felt that all my 20 years of study were in vain.” However, Boss Huang believes that the greatest impact of education on people lies in logical thinking and worldview, “I don’t think I will be any better following finishing my Ph.D.!”

Netizens’ opinions are also quite polarized. “He is very pragmatic. This is not the pursuit of ideals, but real business, which is quite hard.”, “He has obtained this through his own efforts and has the right to waste it. But this is waste, a high You must not be a lowly person.” These netizens’ comments did not affect him. He did not think there was a conflict between the aura of a doctorate and starting a business and opening a B&B. He said: “I think the biggest impact of education on people is the way of thinking and logical thinking. And the world view.” Opening a B&B is a purely commercial project, not out of sentiment, but with the hope of becoming a brand. We have branches in beautiful locations across the country. We also hope that the outside world will not have to open a B&B for a doctor. Surprised.
