People often compare the number 1 to a healthy body, and the 0 after 1 to status, reputation, position, money, etc. Adding a few zeros after the number 1 can turn it into ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, etc. However, if the number 1 no longer exists, then the zeros after it have no meaning. It means that a person must first have a healthy body, and things outside the body such as fame and fortune are secondary. Neglecting physical health and blindly pursuing money and status is tantamount to putting the cart before the horse, like water without a source or a tree without roots. As the saying goes, trading health for official positions, ultimately only results in losing both body and official position.
And a recent online report has made me understand a truth even more: a person's ability to learn knowledge is only a few zeros after the number 1, while a person's ability to withstand pressure or impact is the number 1.
In 2008, Bu Xiaohua disappeared after graduating from the Engineering Mechanics program at Yanshan University. She was not found until 2024, but she was already mentally ill and had a son and a daughter. It is said that Bu Xiaohua has been a top student since childhood. However, the pressure is not small either. In junior high school, she experienced mental problems due to her exam results. After going to college, the pressure became even greater. During her graduate studies, she missed the doctoral exam due to her expired ID card. This dealt a heavy blow to her, causing her to experience mental abnormalities again.
I don't want to make any comments on this matter itself, such as whether it is suspected of human trafficking or not. I just want to say that Bu Xiaohua has a strong ability to learn knowledge, but her ability to resist impact is simply too poor, to the extent that she is full of knowledge and ultimately ended up with such a result.
In the novel Fan Jin Passing Civil Exam, is Fan Jin not smart enough? Not working hard enough? Absolutely not. But in the end, Fan Jin couldn't withstand the blows of repeated failures, and even if he eventually passed the imperial examination, he became a madman. All of Fan Jin's efforts were ultimately meaningless.
Mr. Lu Xun's "Kong Yiji" is also a tragic character who has studied poetry and books extensively, but has repeatedly failed. He has become mentally ill and only boasts that he knows how to write the character Hui (茴) for " Huixiang bean ".
One can add 0 constantly and one’s knowledge can become profound, but if the previous number 1 is gone, what's the point?
We first need to ensure the existence of the number 1, which requires a healthy body or the ability to withstand shocks, and then figure out adding the 0 at the end. As for adding how many zeros, it depends on one's own efforts.
At any time, we cannot turn things around and only pursue knowledge, fame, and status, while neglecting the guarantee of a healthy body and sound mind.
人们常把数字1比作健康的身体，而把1后面的0比作地位、名誉、职位、金钱等。数字1后面加上几个0便可以变成十、百、千、万等，可若是数字1不存在了，那后面的0也就没有任何的意义了。意思是说，人首先要有一个健康的身体，而身体之外的东西诸如名利等都是次要的。忽视身体的健康而一味地追求金钱、地位，无异于本末倒置，如同无源之水、无本之木。难怪俗语言，以健康来换取官位，最终只能是人权两空。
而最近网上报道的一则事情，使我更明白了一个道理： 一个人的知识学习能力不过是数字1后面的那几个0，而一个人的抗压或者说抗打击能力才是那个数字1。
2008年，卜晓华从燕山大学工程力学专业毕业后就失踪了。直到2024年，她才被找到，但已经精神失常，还有了一儿一女。据说，卜晓华从小就是个学霸。但是，压力也不小。初中的时候，她因为考试成绩的事儿就出现过精神问题。上了大学，压力更大了。研究生期间，她因为身份证过期，错过了博士考试。这可把她打击得不轻，又出现了精神异常。
我不想对这件事本身做任何的评论，如是否涉嫌拐卖人口等问题，我只想说卜晓华具有很强的知识学习能力，可她抗打击的能力简直是太差了，以至于满腹经纶最终落了这样的一个结局。
《范进中举》就是这样的一个悲剧，范进不够聪明吗？不够努力吗？可最终他却经不起屡次失败的打击，即使最后考上了举人也变成了疯子。范进所有的努力最终也毫无意义了。
鲁迅先生笔下的《孔乙己》也是这样的一个悲剧人物，饱学诗书，屡次落第，变得神经有了问题，只会炫耀自己懂得“茴香豆的豆字的几种写法了”。
0可以不断增加，知识可以变得渊博，可若是前面的数字1没有了，那还有什么意义呢？
我们首先要保证数字1 的存在，要有健康的身体或者抗打击的能力，然后再图后面的0。至于能够加上几个0，那就看自己的努力了。
任何时候，我们都不能颠倒过来，只追求知识、名利、地位，而忽视了对健康身体和健全思想的保障。
