If there is someone, you know he is in his seventy years old, would you think he was "old"?

Zhou Guoping's answer is: Old.

But think about it again, how old is you? Well, I'm in my seventy years old.

To be precise, Zhou Guoping, born in 1945, just celebrated his 77th birthday last month.

Zhou Guoping understands that he is a "old man" in name, but realizing that this matter requires a process of reasoning, not an intuition.

He did not have a sense of "age". He felt that people could only perceive their life state, but they could not perceive their age. If it was not for those computing and reminders, I am afraid that everyone would forget the age.

Zhou Guoping wrote an article on his 70th birthday- "Seventy Birthday and Talk to himself". There is a sentence in it: I am still energetic and full of joy of life. Why is it?

He does not make people feel "old". From the perspective of appearance, he is much younger than the actual age. He seems to have such genes in the family. His daughter has seen the uncle and aunts who hasn't seen in Shanghai for a long time in Shanghai. She was surprised to say: Are they all frozen?

Lu Yu felt that Zhou Guoping hadn't changed much. What he saw before seemed like that.

Zhou Guoping has a good habit. He goes to Tao Ranting Park every day, walks around at noon, walk around at night, about forty minutes each time.

From a mentality point of view, he was younger. He opened the video number for live broadcast, shared his insights, promoted new books, and taught his homework for his son after 00. He first bought the textbook to learn. The book is proud, but it is really proud of his own mathematics.

Maybe this is also the benefit of philosophy to him. Philosophers seem to be longevity. For example, the Department of Philosophy of Peking University is recognized as "longevity". Many people ask questions online: Why do philosophers mostly live?

The answers given by everyone are nothing more than two. One is that philosophers often think that the brain is often in a state of movement, and the other is that philosophers will use a dialectical method to look at the world, and their mentality may be more and more rational than others.

We are trapped in our lives, paying attention to the people around, and paying attention to what we do. It is more concerned about parts, but philosophers will jump out and want the whole life.

Zhou Guoping graduated from the Department of Philosophy of Peking University. After graduating, he went to the Hunan Army Farm for a year and a half, and was later assigned to work in Guangxi Resources County.

Now when I think of that period of time, he felt that he was not enough at that time, and he was often trapped in the current situation. He felt that there was no way out. It's nothing for him. What makes him unbearable most is "loneliness". None of the companions who can talk deeply, which makes him particularly painful.

Ten years before and after, that's not the life he wanted, but when he turned around, he felt that he had not passed in vain during that time.

Although under such conditions, he "still maintains a core thing that has not changed." He did not give up thinking and did not give up reading. During the period in Guangxi, he wrote a lot of diaries and encountered something. He is emotional, happy or painful, and he will write it down. He records a lot of his own ideas in his diary. Habits have benefited him endlessly.

Zhou Guoping said that his boss did not like him at that time, because he often argued with them, but he would not be entertaining with them. The time of amateur was used to read and write.

He couldn't imagine that if he had no book in the eight and a half years in Guangxi, he would not read what was a state. He said that if it was the case, he was "crazy."

In 1978, the graduate enrollment examination was officially recovered, and Zhou Guoping was admitted to the graduate school of the Academy of Social Sciences that year.

He felt that he was "restarted", like hibernating for a long time, and then gained a new life. The reform and opening up made people feel sunny and future. At that time, Zhou Guoping was 33 years old. He felt particularly young and had unlimited energy. You can do a lot of things.

During the graduate student, he began to read a lot of books related to philosophy, and went to the Institute of Philosophy of the Academy of Social Sciences to borrow books. There were many old books, "including Nietzsche's earliest version of the German version of Nietzsche I borrowed it. "

In Zhou Guoping's view, Nietzsche pays attention to personal uniqueness, "the individual's uniqueness is the highest value in his opinion."

In the Spring Festival of 1985, Zhou Guoping, who had already worked at the Institute of Philosophy of the Academy of Social Sciences, wrote the "Nietzsche: At the Turn Point of Century" in a dormitory of a semi -basement dormitory.

He didn't think about whether this book would be sold well at that time. What would readers think? It was just immersed in this matter, "excited", he was full of inspiration, and the language seemed to jump out automatically. Writing, in less than two months, he finished writing. After many efforts, this book was published in 1986, and 41 -year -old Zhou Guoping also ushered in his "high light moment".

He said that it was the first time he felt recognized by his life, not the recognition in a small circle, because he was a very inferior person since he was a child, and he always felt that he would not be particularly successful.

There are many clever people in the Academy of Social Sciences, and some are "publicity of publicity". In the face of such cleverness, Zhou Guoping is inferior.

他觉得自己没那么聪明,可时间长了,他觉得做自己这种没那么聪明的人好像也有好处,因为他发现,那些张扬的聪明人,把聪明表现出来之后,尽管风光十足,但好像也So far, they are easily mistaken by their talents.

But he is a person who can bear lonely, and he is willing to set up "stupid kung fu". He can live a life isolated from the world to complete one thing in order to be a prerequisite for success. Once he decides to do one thing, he must do very seriously, never sloppy, and never lie to himself.

Zhou Guoping summarized himself: "I am stupid, so I can only rely on seriously."

Not only as a scholar and writer, as a father, Zhou Guoping is also very serious.

He taught his homework for his son, and he was also "stupid". He was worried that under the current education system, under a relatively single evaluation system based on grades, the child's grades were not good and would be discriminated against. He became the "poor student" in the eyes of the teacher. He decided to accompany the child to learn.

He does not think that poor academic performance will cause the child's future failure, but he does not want his son to suffer "suffering in front of him", and he does not want him to suffer every day because of this.

Zhou Guoping's wife Guo Hong felt that it was a very moving scene- "A lamp was hung by a dining table, and the grandfather sat one while sitting."

All the textbooks in his family are two copies. Zhou Guoping will buy all the children's textbooks online and learn it by himself. This means that he wants to re -study junior high school mathematics, junior high school physics, junior high school creatures ...

Zhou Guoping has his own reasons. "If the test education is a monitoring, we cannot do this 'jailer', and we have to be his difficult friend."

And this method really uses it, the children's grades have improved, their relationship is very harmonious, and they will also tidy his father. He gives him a mathematical problem before going to bed. He knows that he is a person who can't help but stop. He ran to his mother Guo Hong: Mom, I gave a mathematical problem for my father, and I guess he couldn't count it tonight.

In general, Zhou Guoping is more satisfied with his current life. "I think God treats me thick. Really, this is such a process and such a result."

He felt that every experience in life has its meaning. In his opinion, the best realm of life is "rich simple". Enrichment refers to the richness and emotional richness ... simply refers to life, there are not so many entanglements of He Zhi.

He wants to reach this state.
