Beijing in April, although it is still in the period of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the spring is already blooming and the sun is shining. Although the reporter could not walk into the campus to interview Zhuang Rui face-to-face, the reporter could still hear and see her mature and wise speech and behavior through mobile phone video. Before the interview, the reporter learned that Zhuang Rui, who was born in the 70s, is the deputy dean, professor, and doctoral supervisor of the Institute of International Economics of the University of International Business and Economics. She has been teaching for more than ten years and is full of peach and plum trees. At the same time, she also enjoys many social honors. She is a foreign trade consulting expert of the Ministry of Commerce, a visiting professor of foreign aid projects of the Ministry of Commerce, a special researcher of the "National Global Strategic Think Tank" of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, a visiting researcher of the Institute of Economics of Chuo University, Japan, and a special appointment of CCTV Finance Channel Financial commentator, editorial board member of Pacific Journal, and council member of Pacific Institute. Through interviews with Zhuang Rui, the reporter felt that she was not only an outstanding intellectual woman, but also a famous scholar with a sense of responsibility and family and country.
From just entering the University of International Business and Economics as a lecturer, to becoming the deputy dean, professor, and doctoral tutor of the Institute of International Economics, Zhuang Rui worked tirelessly at the University of International Business and Economics to study and work hard, and now he has been working for 16 years. As the deputy dean, Zhuang Rui is not only in charge of scientific research, subject construction and international exchanges, but also shoulders the important task of teaching. For Zhuang Rui, teaching is not only work but also responsibility. Zhuang Rui said: “Teachers teach young people and must give them the best and cutting-edge knowledge.” Zhuang Rui’s teaching achievements are obvious to all. She has successively won “Outstanding Teacher of University of International Business and Economics” and “Excellent Graduate Tutor” "Honor in teaching, etc., is well-deserved.
Teaching and scientific research are the two main lines compulsory for university teachers. Apart from teaching and scientific research, Zhuang Rui seized every opportunity to learn. In 2010, Zhuang Rui went to Belgium to be a visiting scholar for nearly half a year, focusing on European economic integration, and gained a lot. Although the workload of teaching and scientific research is very large, and after the addition, she will have to undertake some school administrative work, but Zhuang Rui did not care about one or the other, but felt the enrichment and happiness brought by different work content.
Speaking of social contribution, Zhuang Rui is very humble: "My personal achievements in the academic field are not enough, and so far there is nothing particularly proud of. I just did what I should do in this profession." According to Rui, the research of scholars must be independent and in line with national strategic needs. Scientific research results should be appropriately transformed into reasonable suggestions, which are provided to relevant national departments to serve national decision-making.
Zhuang Rui's message to young students, everyone should have a family and country feelings. A person’s inner self-driving power is very important. If a person only considers his own income and other things that can be seen, self-driving power is limited; if there is a feeling of family and country, there will be a sense of mission, and the driving power is different. Yes, the achievements are different. Young students, even if they just do an ordinary job and earn an ordinary salary after graduation, they will have a different working attitude and a sense of social responsibility if they have family and country feelings, and become useful talents on the road to social progress and national prosperity.
