1989, the University of Tokyo held a four-year presidential election. After three rounds of voting, the two candidates still got exactly the same number of votes. This embarrassed the University of Tokyo. What shall we do when someone turns out the school rules. According to the regulations of the school, the headmaster will be chosen by lot. So, the school really made a sign for two candidates to draw lots. In the end, Ma Qiuhu won the red lottery and was elected as the president of the University of Tokyo. The University of Tokyo is the highest institution of learning in Japan. In the eyes of the Japanese, the status of the University of Tokyo is not comparable to that of Harvard, Oxford and Cambridge combined. It is absurd for foreigners to think that the president of such a famous university should be elected by lottery. They think he was elected not by ability, but by luck. The Japanese don't think so, because they don't want to make personnel too complicated. They think this is the only way to maintain internal harmony and unity. When people can't decide, they simply draw lots. The Japanese believe that the result of the lottery is an act of god, and there is nothing wrong with obeying it. Therefore, after Ma Qiuteng was elected president of the University of Tokyo, he was naturally recognized by people. Later, he also served as the Minister of Education of Japan.
Please accept it, thank you!
