Last year, CCTV made a big move, and an article "desperate illiteracy" went viral all over the network, making our shiny stars restless one by one. To put it bluntly, that is, many stars are a little "stretched" in the area of cultural knowledge.
For a long time, we are used to watching them enjoy boundless scenery in front of the camera, who doesn't want to shine brighter under the flash? However, as soon as this article is published, it is like painting a layer of ash on their halo. It turns out that some of these big stars can't even distinguish between "soil" and "scholar", not to mention the unary first-order equation. What's more, you have to hold up the image of high achiever in front of the camera. Isn't that why you find yourself unhappy?
As we all know, stars appear on camera, that is to be gorgeous, but behind this, some stars in this piece of knowledge is like "half a bucket of water", show timid how to do? Then we can only rely on "furry work" to support the scene in front of the camera.
We are not picky, but this phenomenon is really puzzling. For example, a big star, you must be eloquent if you ask him to talk about his major or what he is good at.
But when it comes to cultural knowledge, especially the kind of questions that pupils can answer, they begin to "stop talking". Isn't that awkward?
Moreover, this phenomenon is not alone in the entertainment industry. Sometimes, stars in order to maintain their own image, do not hesitate to "hold on" in public, the result is more and more embarrassing.
Jin Dong is quite a respectable figure in the entertainment industry, but even such a big star can make people laugh or cry at times.
I remember once, in an interview, Jin Dong solemnly said that he liked to read "short articles by Nobel laureates in mathematics." As soon as this came out, many fans were confused and thought: is there a math prize in the Nobel Prize? Later, when everyone checked, there was no such thing. Isn't this embarrassing? what do you think of Jin Dong, pretending to understand?
Moreover, this is not the first time that Jin Dong has "excelled." As early as 2016, he posted a "popular science" on social platforms about solar terms. As a result, he wrote "immutable" as "immutable" and "vegetation sprouting" as "advice". This operation directly makes many people wonder whether this is a limited level of education, or is the keyboard slipping?
Even the "contradictory Literature Award" has been turned into the "Mao Dun Literature Award". Although insisting on using traditional Chinese characters seems to have a little cultural flavor, this obvious mistake still makes people feel quite embarrassed.
Some people speculate whether Jin Dong deliberately did this in order to pursue that kind of "antique" style. But in any case, this kind of "innovation" obviously failed to win everyone's recognition.
What makes people cry and laugh even more is that Jin Dong was once asked on a program if there were any books recommended. His "tugging" appearance could not explain why for a long time. For a public figure, this situation is really awkward. Especially when everyone thought he would recommend some high-end books, but it turned out to be empty.
On another occasion, in a behind-the-scenes interview with the camouflage, he tried to show his bookish style, saying that he recommended "No excuses" to the crew, claiming to be a foreign masterpiece. As a result, it didn't take long for everyone to find that the book was made up at all, and there were no classics.
This series of "performances" not only did not let Jin Dong establish the image of high achiever in the hearts of fans, but made his "high-knowledge element" mask collapse completely.
Yang Yang's transformation can be described as a typical representative from "military talents" to "cultural knowledge loopholes", which really makes people sigh "heaven and earth difference".
Remember an interview, the reporter asked Yang Yang curiously what hobbies, Yang Yang came to the sentence: "I like odd." Sounds like a personality, doesn't it? But then he counted "10, 30, 50" as an example. Great, there was a dead silence, and everyone was thinking, "aren't these even numbers?" This is not only a matter of mathematical knowledge, but also a big problem with logic.
When it comes to Yang Yang's education, it is actually quite enviable-after all, he has a military background. But even with this background, he failed to make any achievements in cultural knowledge. What's even more embarrassing is that he originally studied dance, which may not have much to do with mathematics, but he should understand the basic concept of odd and even numbers, right?
At the scene of another event, the reporter gave a suggestion that Yang Yang might be more popular if he wore white clothes. As a result, Yang Yang said, "you can't have the right to drive", which confused all the reporters present. What is this operation? Even basic words can be used incorrectly, and this level of education is really worrying.
In fact, everyone does not have too high requirements for the cultural level of the stars. After all, each person has his or her own strengths. However, as a public figure, especially an idol loved by teenagers, it is necessary to pay a little attention to his words and deeds, at least not to make such low-level mistakes in public.
How did Zhai Tianlin, the former doctor of "high achiever", become a joke in the entertainment industry overnight? Who didn't look envious when Zhai Tianlin proudly became a postdoctoral student at Peking University in 2014? Handsome, talented and online, he is simply an omnipotent gold medalist.
However, the good times did not last long, and a live broadcast made his "shrine" collapse. When someone asked curiously if his paper could be found on the knowledge net, Zhai Tianlin looked at a loss: "what is the knowledge net?" That's great. The whole network blew up. A postdoctoral does not know the net, what is the difference between this and primary school students do not know the "three-character Sutra"?
As soon as this happened, everyone began to wonder, what is going on with this "doctor"? Did this degree fall from the sky? As a result, netizens have "dug holes" to find out. As a result, alas, the repetition rate of this paper is so high that it is almost not copied in full.
This incident not only made Zhai Tianlin a laughingstock online, but also came out to comment with the Beijing Film Academy and CCTV. In the end, the former "high achiever" not only lost his reputation, but also lost his post-doctoral position. It was really one night before liberation, but this time it was his "high achiever" identity.
Although Liu Haocun and Zhao Lusi have made great progress in the entertainment industry, they sometimes make people sweat in the area of knowledge and culture.
Let's start with Liu Haocun. As a "scheming girl", her star path looks bright. However, in an exclusive interview, when a reporter asked her what she thought of her peers, she replied: "A very hard-working actor, very hard-working, the performance is very impressive, very impressive, I like it very much." It's like a repeater, and it's nothing new.
What's even more funny is that when the reporter asked her if she was a gifted actress, she came directly: "Why not?" This confidence is really convincing. The problem is that there is no substance behind this self-confidence, and it sounds more like a castle in the air.
Let's take a look at Zhao Lusi, a post-1995 Xiao Hua Dan. Compared with other stars, her style reviews seem to be good. However, on one occasion, in a variety interview, she unexpectedly said that she only got 16 points in math, so she embarked on a "star path". This makes people can't help feeling that the threshold of the entertainment industry is also too low.
However, Zhao Ruth also has moments that make people laugh or cry. For example, in the play Hutong, she plays a girl in the early days of liberation. But she unexpectedly said in the interview that this is the story of the year the party was founded.
This error of historical knowledge directly makes people speechless. As an actor in the play, he can't even figure out the most basic plot background. What do you think of the play?
Once the stories of these stars were exposed, they immediately caused a stir on the Internet. Everyone began to discuss what kind of standard the cultural level of celebrities should be. Should every photogenic star have a strong knowledge reserve? This is not just a question of individual stars, but more like a big review of the cultural level of the entire entertainment industry.
Let's see how violent the response to this wave of public opinion is. First of all, many netizens began to dig more "cultural loopholes" of stars in an attempt to expose more similar cases. These discussions quickly heated up, and even some too fierce remarks, began to attack the star's body. This is obviously too much. Criticism is classified as criticism, but attack is wrong.
At the same time, some voices began to call for reason. They believe that stars are first of all actors, and their main job is acting, not learning.
Although everyone should have cultural literacy, we should not completely deny everyone because of the mistakes of a few people. Although this kind of voice does not occupy the mainstream, it also adds some moderate color to the discussion.
More importantly, these events have also attracted the attention of the media and educational institutions. Some educational institutions began to reflect on whether they should strengthen the cultural education of public figures, especially young idols, so that they can not only shine in front of the camera, but also become cultural messengers of positive energy.
As for the media, they began to scrutinize the words and actions of stars more strictly. After all, in today's information explosion, a word and an action may be infinitely magnified and become an important factor affecting the public.
In fact, CCTV's article "desperate illiteracy" is not only criticizing those stars with defective knowledge, but also wants to sound the alarm of the whole society through these examples. In this face-to-face era, do we ignore the importance of knowledge? Do you only pursue the superficial brilliance and forget the inner fulfillment and promotion?
The significance of this article is not to make those named stars blush, nor to make everyone laugh at them. Instead, I hope that through this incident, all public figures, including every ordinary person, can begin to attach importance to their own cultural literacy, continue to learn and progress, and become an all-round development person.
For stars, they are not only the focus of the public, but also the weather vane of the social atmosphere. Their words and deeds not only affect their own image, but are more likely to be imitated by fans. Therefore, to improve one's own cultural literacy is not only responsible to oneself, but also to society and fans.
Finally, I hope this incident can become a turning point, so that more people begin to pay attention to and attach importance to the learning and accumulation of cultural knowledge. After all, in this era of rapid development, only by continuous learning can we not be eliminated by the times and become a more perfect self.
