Why did Xiamen University professor quit the academic circle? What caused him to have no hope of learning?

Not long ago, some media broke the news that Wang Nuo, a professor at Xiamen University, announced his retirement from academia, expressing his complete despair over the academic system in China. After more than a year's retirement, the professor published an open letter on his professional blog, telling the decision to choose life. The professor said that the decision to quit the academic field was made after careful consideration, and there were three main reasons for this decision.

First, Professor Wang said that he has been engaged in academic research for 30 years since he entered the school, and his academic reserves and academic ability have reached the highest point. If there is a real breakthrough in the future, there are only three ways to go, or to the ideological system. The premise is to complete systematic philosophical research and basic research of related thoughts first, and then create your own unique academic ideological system on this basis; Either combine with China's traditional thought and culture, reveal the correlation between western thought and China's traditional thought, and explore the universal value of China's traditional thought to the contemporary world, the premise of which is to complete the systematic study of Chinese studies first; Either go to the world in a real sense, talk with peers in the world, and make contributions to the world's academics, provided that they first undergo heavy and strict academic training accepted by doctoral students in humanities and social sciences in famous British and American universities. He clearly realized that:

If I can't work hard in any of the above directions, I can't make a real breakthrough in my future academic research, and I can only repeat my previous research on more specific issues at the same level. It is also impossible to truly integrate into the international academic community and be truly recognized and accepted by the international academic community. After making it clear, my choice is very clear: I don't have enough time and energy, I don't want to devote the rest of my life to the above three extremely arduous and time-consuming systematic training, and I don't want or can't stand my academic research standing still, although I have reached the so-called harvest period, I can reap all kinds of benefits; Then I can only choose to quit the academic field.

Secondly, Professor Wang said that he was extremely disgusted with China's academic system, academic evaluation system and incentive mechanism, as well as academic stars and academic speculators who were striving for success. I don't want to associate with them anymore. Third, I want to change my lifestyle. After the age of 50, great changes have taken place in my thoughts and pursuits, and I have become increasingly indifferent to fame and fortune, interests, responsibilities and missions. He decided to put these things down. Although he knows it is not easy to let go, he must let go decisively, decisively and truly. I want to devote my limited life to my dreams and hobbies since I was a child, but I have been pursuing fame and fortune. I want to change my lifestyle, change my lifestyle, and move when I still have strength.
