The Road Is Long

Introduction The protagonist, Yan Xuexue, was not recommended to go to high school because of his family background. In order to realize his childhood dream of going to college, becoming an engineer or scientist, he was influenced to take risks and go to Hong Kong with others. He wanted to take a detour to study in the United States but was frustrated. With the reform and opening up, while working as a temporary school janitor, he began to learn English by himself with the help of radios. Later, he taught himself while teaching. By participating in the national self-study examination, he obtained junior college diplomas, undergraduate diplomas, and finally a postgraduate degree. The story unfolds in the primitive underground coal mining environment of a labor camp coal mine after being falsely accused of being a janitor, teaching high school, and cheating on the college entrance examination and was imprisoned. During this period, he overcame many difficulties and almost died four times. However, in order to realize his childhood dream of going to college, he remained true to his original intention and eventually turned into a butterfly. The love story runs through the protagonist Yan Xuexue's self-study from beginning to end, and his two affairs with college-educated Wang Caixia and Zhong Xiaofang. Although their love was fruitless, the love between them turned into a catalyst for each other to reach the peak of life. With only basic knowledge of primary school culture, he finally fulfilled his dream of becoming a graduate student. Inspired by his charisma, Wang Caixia and Zhong Xiaofang went through hardships and obtained foreign doctorates. One taught at the Confucius Institute in the United States and the other at the Confucius Institute in the United Kingdom. Unconventional and contrary to "lovers eventually get married", the story runs through the conflict between love and career, with twists and turns and is thought-provoking. Without the protagonist Yan Xuexue's knowledge, one "stole" his daughter and the other "took" his son. In the face of DNA testing, the secret was revealed at his graduate graduation inspirational symposium. In a unique form of expression, it demonstrated the protagonist's distinctive personality and charm. "Teaching and learning" in school teaching is an ancient but urgent topic in the education world. In the story, Yan Xuexue is both a teacher and a student. The learning methods he has discovered through self-study have reflected on teaching, showing a refreshing new concept of teaching and learning, specific methods, and the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort. The villain in the story, Yan Zheng, and the protagonist Yan Xuexue are enemies, both love rivals and career rivals. They both started working as janitors at the same time, and they successively moved to school-level leadership positions for different reasons. One relies on his teaching performance that has shocked the whole county, and the other relies on his social background and his ability to work hard, flatter and flatter others. Yan Zheng, who was involved in the case of cheating on the college entrance examination for the children of "big shots", forced Yan Xuexue to commit the crime in order to protect themselves, and he was sentenced to 4 years in prison. Yan Zheng, who thus received a large amount of profits in return for his "meritorious service", had the opportunity to contract a school construction project. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison for cutting corners and cutting materials, resulting in the death and injury of more than ten people. While serving their sentences, they came together again, slept in the same Datong shop, and went to the same class. During the major mining disaster, during the break, Yan Xuexue told everyone the English novel he was reading, which gave everyone the opportunity to gather in a small safe area and temporarily escape the disaster. In the process of self-rescue, Yan Xuexue relied on his inherent perseverance and survived by eating coal. He used his last breath to dig out the exit and saved the dying lives of more than 30 people in the class, including Yan Zheng. Yan Xuexue was released early for meritorious service. News that he had been preparing for graduate school entrance exams in prison was revealed by the media. He was specially recruited as a graduate student by the University of Foreign Studies. Many friends who were in trouble have become big bosses. With their donations, Yan Xuexue will build a school in his hometown. The tragedy that he once had no way to go to school will not happen to the next generation of children. This news awakened Yan Zhengfan in prison. He wrote to Yan Xuexue, determined to change his face and start a new life, and start a long road in life like Yan Xuexue. In the process of China's reform, in order to realize the four modernizations and to continuously train and deliver workers with comprehensive moral, intellectual and physical development for the country, millions of educators have been working silently on the front line of teaching day and night, leaving a strong mark in the history of China's rise. The protagonist Yan Xuexuu is an epitome of them. He eulogizes an ordinary teacher who is constantly striving for self-improvement, struggling, adhering to poverty, and willing to be a ladder for others, but he has done extraordinary deeds.
