What's with the girl kowtowing to the teacher?

On July 9, a picture of a girl kneeling and kowtowing to a young man appeared in a local forum in Changzhou, which caused a lot of heated discussion among citizens. It is said that this is a live broadcast when a teacher of a training institution in Changzhou receives an apprentice. Some people scoff at this practice of "kissing the teacher's ass", but others think that we should not go too far, and the inheritance of traditional culture cannot be separated from the sense of ceremony. The reporter of Modern Express contacted the parties and learned the ins and outs of the girl kneeling and kowtowing.

The reporter contacted his apprentice Li Man Zhen. He is a native of Heilongjiang, born in 199 1. He graduated from Sichuan Conservatory of Music and worked in Changzhou Youth Activity Center. A few months ago, he left his job and opened a training institution to teach artists such as cross talk, storytelling and Allegro.

Li Zhen said that kowtowing is a necessary part of the ceremony of worshipping Quyi, and Master's accepting disciples is a voluntary thing for both sides. Appreciating teachers does not mean that you can worship if you want. The first thing he does is to look at personality, and the second thing is to look at professional ability.

Li Zhen said that when he was a child, he also knelt and kowtowed. At that time, he was still young and didn't understand the meaning. At that time, I just kowtowed to Master, but later, Master really paid a lot for his disciples, imparting knowledge without reservation, just to inherit and carry forward his skills.

"I have been learning Quyi from Miss Li, and I like this course very much. In addition to attending classes, he also taught a lot about being a man, including treating people, talking and doing things. " Xiao Chen, a girl born after 00, is only in the third grade now. She said that she didn't think there was anything wrong with such a ceremony. "Didn't the Monkey King kowtow to the master in Journey to the West?"

Parent Chen believes that there is a difference between kneeling and not kneeling, and Master is more special than Master. "Master has both the majesty of the teacher and the kindness of his father. I hope that my daughter will treat Master like a father, learn from teachers' morality, learn from teachers' skills and carry forward traditional art. "
