Rebirth: It’s Like Flowing Water

v4 Chapter 178: people, money and direction

Today's class is completely different from before.

Before, as long as Qi Lei wrote the topic on the blackboard, everyone could immediately feel his hostility and sharpness, and at a glance they would know what he was going to criticize or what pit he was digging.

However, today's completely irrelevant topics - economics, morals and education...

What is this about? Completely confused, can't figure it out!

They all stared at Qi Lei intently, to see how he was going to fool around today.

What everyone didn't expect was that when Qi Lei came up, instead of giving a lecture, he did a social simulation, a very fresh simulation.

"A stray dog! And six people!"

"These six people represent social groups of different economic abilities."

"Respectively: beggars who are dying of starvation"

"The poor, but the poor who can fill their stomachs..."

"The poor with food and clothing and basic living guarantees..."

"Achieving a moderately prosperous little wealthy people.

"And the wealthy social elite...

"And, a super-rich capitalist with billions of assets!"

"Let's discuss what measures these six types of people will take when they encounter a poor stray dog ​​on the basis of not mixing individual moral standards and the group's high probability behavior."

The classmates fell into contemplation. This social simulation seems to be quite interesting.

Tong Lu couldn't help but said, "Instructor Qi, just want to see how these six types of people deal with stray dogs?"

Qi Lei, "Yes!"

"Then you can talk about it first. If you are a beggar who is dying of starvation, what will you do?"

Tong Lu stood up, thought about it for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth, "Will I eat it? Because I'm already starving to death!"

what!

It attracted contempt from everyone, is it too cruel?

Erchengzi grinned, "I misread you, so you are such a person!"

Tong Lu was not convinced, "What kind of fake saint? I think I will, don't you?"

Erchengzi: ""

He didn't know, and said in his heart, most likely not? He's not that cruel.

However, Qi Lei agreed with Tong Lu's point of view, "If it were me, I would too."

people, …

Qi Lei, "Don't pretend to be a Virgin, think about the war and famine years in history, let alone a dog, Yizi eats each other, do you know what it means?"

People, "!!

I didn't say anything, because I couldn't argue with it.

Qi Lei continued to ask the crowd, "How about the poor who can eat enough, but are extremely poor? What will they do when they encounter stray dogs?"

After the lessons learned, everyone calmed down and began to think seriously.

Finally, we come to a conclusion together:

Probably won't eat stray dogs, but most likely will turn a blind eye, because there is no ability to help a puppy.

Qi Lei finally agreed with this result.

"So, what about people with food and clothing? They have the ability to rescue."

At this moment, Li Lin stood up, "I think, I will feed it! Although I can't adopt it, I can still help if I can."

Qi Lei, "Why can't I adopt?"

On this point, Erchengzi replied for Li Lin, "I, I, and myself can only have food and clothing. Raising it will bring a lot of burdens, which I may not be able to bear."

Qi Lei let out a long sigh, really afraid that Erchengzi would stutter and say half of the class.

"Then let's go up another level, a well-off family, can we adopt?"

Everyone thought for a while, "It should be possible, they have no financial burden, and the living burden brought by one more dog is affordable."

Qi Lei smiled, "I think so too! What about the elites that are richer than the well-off? According to your logic, the richer the better for the stray dog, and the wealthier elites will definitely be more careful with this dog. All right? Make it a better life?"

When everyone heard it, they were silent.

Because they are not sure.

Ordinarily, it should be like this. However, subconsciously, I feel that reality is not so simple.

Have you seen a few people who live in luxury houses and drive stray dogs?

Finally, Tong Lu gave an acceptable answer.

"If I were elite, I wouldn't put a stray dog ​​that might be of average breed and dirty in my house."

"At the same time, a puppy like this doesn't bring me social convenience."

"I think, at best, I'll help him find a family that is willing to adopt, or simply send him to a pet shelter!"

This answer was unanimously approved by everyone.

Then there is the last type of person left, the super-rich capitalist with billions of assets.

There is no need for everyone to answer this, Qi Lei has the most say.

"Aside from the show and conscience, I probably won't even look at it. I won't give it food, I won't adopt it, and I won't help it.

Because that would be a waste of my time and energy. "

people, …

Qi Lei added, "Of course, I only represent the universal thinking of capitalists, not myself! I am so kind."

Ha ha ha ha!

Everyone laughed, and some even said, "I don't believe it!"

Qi Lei, "Believe it or not!"

Outside the door, Shen Haiming couldn't help but follow the rhythm in the classroom, slightly pulling the corners of his mouth.

It's just that he is more curious. What is the purpose of Qi Lei's example of this social simulation?

But Qi Lei's next sentence in front of the podium made everyone, including Shen Haiming, feel a sense of empowerment.

Qi Lei, "So, people's moral standards are different and hierarchical!"

"That is to say, noble morality does not apply to everyone, and different groups have different definitions of morality!"

Looking at everyone, "Maybe what you think is noble morality, in my eyes, I don't agree with it."

"And what I think is immoral is what you take for granted."

"And the universal principle of each level, that is, the logic of high probability behavior, is determined by the economic level of the population at this level!"

people,...

Qi Lei paced in front of the podium, completely like an old pedant, "A beggar who is dying of starvation, he will not consider other factors other than survival. Living is his first rule!"

"That's what we call sex, the beast instinct."

"When it comes to an extremely poor person who can eat enough, he doesn't have to eat dogs to maintain his life, and his moral demands must be higher than those of beggars. However, economic poverty makes him his first priority. The demands of his own living conditions. In his eyes Here, not helping is a matter of course, and remaining aloof has met his moral standards."

"This is what we can often see on the Internet and in reality. The so-called 'powerless' 'there is really no way'."

"And the higher the level, the more well-off people are, the needs for their own living materials are basically satisfied, and the indifference can no longer meet his value demands, and the more they can pay for a stray dog. The economic price and humanistic care will be more. So, they are more willing to provide more moral assistance."

"The outstanding performance of this is that we see the mainstream moral standards of this society, and the pathological manifestation is dog lovers."

Everyone nodded and listened, but some people still asked questions, "Instructor Qi, why is it better to be well-off and well-off in front of the elite and the rich?"

Qi Lei raised his eyebrows, "Good question! I was about to talk about this. However, this is not the Tuoer I found, I don't know him!"

Hahaha, everyone laughed again.

And Qi Lei, "This is really a good question. Since the economic level determines the moral standard, why is it not an upward curve, the more money you have, the higher your awareness?"

"And it has become a hump curve, reaching the peak of the well-off level, but the elite and the super rich have gone down again?"

"That requires combining an economic theory."

Speaking of which, Qi Lei returned to the blackboard, "Who has Professor Zhang Luchen's psychology credits?"

Outside the window, a boy immediately shouted, "Me!"

Qi Lei didn't look at him, "Do you know Maslow's hierarchy of needs?"

The boy was stunned, like a concubine, what am I doing?

"No, I don't know!"

Qi Lei was speechless, "Who is his classmate, go back and ask the teacher to hang him up!"

After joking, he stopped asking his classmates and explained, "Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory is a motivational theory in psychology."

"It arranges the five basic human needs into a pyramid structure."

"The five needs are fundamental, innate, constitute different hierarchies or levels, and become the forces that motivate and guide individual behavior."

Speaking, Qi Lei drew a triangle representing the pyramid and divided it into five layers.

"From bottom to top are:"

"One, physiological needs."

"Second, security needs."

"Three, social needs."

“Four, the need for respect.”

"Five, self-actualization."

"The first four of these, physiological, safety, social, and esteem, are deficient needs."

Hahaha!

Qi Lei didn't smile, "The last one, self-fulfillment, is the need for growth."

"That is to say, eat enough!"

"This is not only psychology, but your communication lecturers should have mentioned it. I guess you didn't listen carefully, right?"

A few sentences explain a theory.

Afterwards, Qi Lei explained the five basic needs in depth.

"Tier 1, basic physiological needs: breathing, food, water, sex, sleep, body balance, excretion."

"This is the sexual need of human beings as a species, and it is also a rigid need. So this need is the biggest."

"The second layer, basic social security: personal freedom, property security, occupational security, family balance, health security, security, etc."

"This is the human rights demand of human beings as individuals in society."

"The third layer, basic social needs, that is, emotional satisfaction. For example, friendship, family, love."

"Fourth floor, respect!"

"If people get the basic guarantee of the above resources, then they will be motivated to pursue a higher level of social positioning, as well as the awakening of self-consciousness. For example, self-esteem, self-confidence, sense of achievement and social respect."

"The above are flawed requirements."

"That's what we said, make up for what's missing."

He made a joke, "Calcium deficiency and calcium supplementation, ischemia supplementation blood, lack of heart can't help, give up!"

"Then there is the fifth layer, that is, when we meet our physical needs, we have human rights protection, emotional appeals, and have a clear social orientation and self-awareness, then there will be no flaws and regrets!"

"Then you have to pursue something higher."

"What is it? It's [self-actualization]!"

"Attention! At this level, it is already the spire of the pyramid, and it is no longer human."

"It's not a god, it's a ghost!"

"They're more inclined to create."

"Don't care if it's good or bad. More willing to engage in moral building, creative breakthroughs, solving problems that others can't solve, etc.

"Another feature to watch out for is that!"

Pointing to the pyramid structure on the blackboard, "Before the bottom-level needs are not met, the bottom-level needs are greater than the top-level needs and have priority.

And when the bottom-level needs are met, then the top-level needs are greater than the bottom-level needs. "

After finishing this theory, the students below thoroughly understood it. Qi Lei threw away the chalk, "Do you know why this theory was taken out by itself?"

"do not know."

Qi Lei, "Now, put the needs of these five layers into the moral stratification we just concluded."

"Then why is a hump curve, there should be an answer."

This tooth smiled, "Not only has the moral stratification been clarified, but many social phenomena have become clear at a glance."

"Including, why does capital devour people's hearts, and why capitalists are cold-blooded."

Oh chah! Is it so mysterious?

A group of people hurriedly followed what Qi Lei said and went inside.

It seems to mean something like that!

Shen Haiming outside the door all laughed, he could only say that he was quite unique.

It is indeed possible to fit in. Beggars correspond to the bottom-level basic requirements of Maslow's needs hierarchy, as long as they meet physiological needs.

And until the physiological needs are not met, any other level of needs is superfluous.

Look further up...

"Look further up!" Qi Lei took over the leadership, "For example, the poor class, his needs are mainly in the second level."

“It’s the desire for safety. Not just personal safety, but the need for property, occupational stability, health, etc.”

"So, you can see some typical phenomena at this level."

"It's like the concept of marriage and love! The concept of marriage and love at all levels is different."

"The poor, because their wealth needs and career needs have not been met, it is easy to distort the concept of love at a higher level, thereby affecting the concept of marriage and love."

"Marriage requires a car and a house, high betrothal gifts, etc. These things that seem immoral at other levels, and even suspected of selling children and daughters, are very common at this level."

“Because, it’s a shortcut to meeting basic needs.”

"Of course, it also includes a lot of boys jokingly looking for rich women!"

puff! Everyone laughed.

Someone ridiculed, "There are not a lot of rich people who are looking for the right match and treat marriage as a deal!"

When everyone heard it, "Yes! Those rich second-generation, rich, mistresses, promiscuous, etc., why don't you say it? Isn't it immoral?"

Qi Lei spread his hands, "So, each level has different views on marriage and love, and different moral standards."

"And this difference... you look up."

Pointing to the fourth level of the pyramid model, "When most of your basic needs are met, you have reached the fourth level of needs, which is the need for social recognition and respect. In fact, the inflection point of the hump comes."

Everyone was puzzled, "Why?"

Qi Lei, "What is the most intuitive way to gain social recognition and respect?"

Everyone was stunned.

Because those who study communication studies on the spot know that the most intuitive means of social identification are not what ordinary people think about talent, cultivation, and moral height.

It's social roles, clothing, appearance, luxuries, these relatively tacky things.

Qi Lei, "When a person has money, meets basic needs, and wants to gain social recognition, the simplest and most rude way is to put on expensive clothes, a luxury watch, and the latest mobile phone!"

"These can give you social proof, but!"

"Attention! But, it doesn't really do anything!"

Everyone froze, "How can it be useless?"

Qi Lei, "Because, with the growth of wealth, your social circle has changed, and your social attributes have improved."

In the past, you were poor, and the people around you were poor, so a famous brand can show your status. "

"However, now that you are rich, will you still play with poor people? If so, it only means that you have not completely crossed the hierarchy.

When you are surrounded by rich people, famous brands can only be regarded as standard and will not bring you any sense of superiority in status. "

"At this point, the only thing satisfying to fill the respect gap in a new social circle is to... get richer!"

Looking at everyone, "Recall, what is your goal now? Maybe many people think that as long as you make one million, then you will be successful, right?"

"However, when you really earn one million, no one will be satisfied, you will want to earn ten million!"

"When you reach the 10 million level, you will think 100 million! 1 billion! 10 billion!"

"Everyone calls this human greed, but in fact, it is caused by defective needs."

“So, the capitalists will only get more and more greedy, never ending.”

"This is also what we often say, capital devours human nature, and capital dominates capitalists."

"So, you're going to see the hump curve going down, and capitalists are inhumane."

Because in their moral system, rescuing a stray dog ​​can no longer meet their basic needs, which is not in their moral system.

people,

Suddenly there is a feeling of knowing the truth, and someone can't help but ask, "Instructor Xiao Qi, can you give an example?"

Qi Lei, "Of course you can."

After a little pondering, I told everyone such an example.

"You know that my Three Stone Company has a Magic Capital Laboratory, right?"

The crowd nodded.

Qi Lei, "Byron, chief scientist of the Magic Capital Lab, gave me such a suggestion when discussing the development of smartphones some time ago.

"He said that among smartphone-related technologies, there are some that Sanshi can try, and some that are best not to develop."

"For example, chips, screens, storage devices, and batteries."

"The reason why he doesn't recommend trying is also very simple, because all these technologies are industries with large investment, rapid iteration and high risk."

"Take the screen as an example. Even if Sanshi has broken through the technical difficulties and has the most advanced technology, the initial investment is tens of billions."

"And this tens of billions of investment is likely to be out of date next year, and you won't be able to get a penny back!"

Counting the numbers with his fingers, "With a single touch technology, there are technical directions such as resistive screens, pressure screens, capacitive screens, etc. The key is that no one knows which technical direction can become the future choice."

"In Byron's words, if you throw in 30 to 50 billion yuan, you may not be able to create a single screen."

The guys were listening carefully, and it was new territory for them.

Only Wen Qi Lei continued, "Byron came from the perspective of a technician, or an ordinary person who doesn't know much about business."

"Then do you know that from a businessman's point of view, these technologies can be done?"

Everyone's interest was hooked by Qi Lei, "Can you do that?"

Qi Lei, "Yes! Also, it is unlikely to lose money."

Everyone is puzzled, "You are so confident? You must succeed?"

Qi Lei smiled, "It has nothing to do with self-confidence, and it has nothing to do with the success of R&D. This is a business problem."

Wipe off a piece of writing on the blackboard, "Take the chip as an example, there is such a profit model."

"As long as Sanshi Company establishes a project, proposes a concept, and builds the technical framework in the early stage, I can start financing without waiting for the chip to be built."

"The concept of the first high-end chip in China has been hyped up. It is endorsed by internationally renowned scholars. The first round of financing is 500 million. Do you think it can be financed?"

people,""

Qi Lei, "Definitely! Because the financiers of the first round of financing, they don't see if I can build a chip at all, they only see if I can do this concept well enough."

"Do you know why?"

Everyone was stupid, "No, I don't know."

Qi Lei, "Because they make money, it's not about whether I can make a chip, but whether there is anyone taking over the concept."

Everyone, "!!"

Qi Lei, "It's alright now, I'll take 500 million funds, hype it up, and slowly advance the project."

"After half a year, the second round of financing will begin."

"This time, 15 billion!"

"Did anyone vote?"

"There must be! Because the people in the second round don't care whether the project will be successful or not, and they also know that there will be people who will take over. As long as someone continues to vote, they will make money."

"That's it, three, four, five, six, seven and eight rounds, until there are no more investors. Do you think this MLM game is over?"

"Don't worry! Even so, the project will still make money."

"Because there is one more move, go public!"

"As the first chip company in China, if the publicity is still in place, investors will definitely buy it."

"So, I shifted the risk of the whole project to the stock market."

"I had several rounds of financing and a lot of cash in the stock market on my hands."

"This money is enough for me to toss in the chip field for several years, and finally support it to come up with a successful product."

"Even if the final project fails, it's not my money, and there is no risk that Byron is worried about."

Everyone, "" is completely speechless, isn't this immoral?

Qi Lei, "You all think this is immoral, don't you? But this is the most basic operation in the capital market!"

"That is to say, this is not wicked in the capital market!"

"Waiting for a fool to take over is the most basic operation."

"This is the cold blood of capital!"

people, . …

To be honest, it's a bit subversive.

What I'm talking about today is a bit subversive.

But then again, social science is like this. Now that you have studied this subject, whether it is communication studies, sociology, psychology, etc., this subversion of the three views is often seen, and everyone is used to it, and there is time to think and find problems.

For example: At this moment, Tong Lu stood up and said, "Instructor Xiao Qi, I have a question."

Qi Lei, "You speak."

Tong Lu, "You have unified Maslow's needs hierarchy and moral hierarchy, and come to the conclusion that I personally agree with such universal values."

"However, this unification cannot explain some universal phenomena of the same level?"

Qi Lei raised his eyebrows, probably knowing what Tong Lu was going to say.

"continue!"

Tong Lu thought for a while, "I don't know if I think so, whether it's a case or not."

"For example, there are many cases of beggars helping stray dogs."

There are not a few people who live at the bottom of the society and are not indifferent at the same time. "

"And there are no indifferent entrepreneurs like Mr. Cao and Haier Zhang Ruilin."

"Including you! Would you really use a fool's method to gather funds?"

"So I think your unification this time is still controversial."

Tong Lu is considered to be outstanding in the second phase of Young Eagle. Her questions are very representative, and it brings everyone's thoughts back at once.

Indeed it is! If a theory, even if it looks correct on the surface, once there are many special cases, it means that there must be a problem with the theory.

The Korean girl with small eyes also stood up, "Instructor Xiao Qi, if you analyze it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the use of demand stratification and moral stratification to unify the conclusion, as well as the moral trend of the hump curve, may be more applicable to the West. ."

"And in East Asia, although most of them can be applied, there are also many, many more than in the West."

When Qi Lei heard this, he looked at the two girls, "These two aren't the nurses I found!"

This time everyone didn't laugh, because they desperately wanted to know the answer.

Qi Lei didn't give in, he turned around and underlined the word "education" in the subject.

"Because what we are talking about today is not only about unifying economics and morals, but also education!"

Everyone suddenly became cold and suddenly realized.

Tong Lu said blankly, "You mean, education played a role? It flattened our hump curve?"

"That is..." Tong Lu was afraid that she was not clear enough. "That is, our education pays more attention to moral education? Makes the bottom and the top all tend to higher moral standards, making this curve straight?"

Qi Lei smiled, this little girl Tong Lu is really not bad.

Nodding, "That's understandable!"

"But!" The conversation changed, "Since we are conducting professional research, such a general concept is obviously not enough."

"Furthermore, focusing on moral education cannot be clearly expressed."

After a pause, Qi Lei said, "How about, let me explain to you?"

"First of all, did you know that education is also stratified?"

Shen Haiming outside the door was stagnant.

And Qi Lei, who was inside the door, couldn't help but look out the door, and his tone became serious. "Although. We stand for equality in education,

Everyone has the right to learn knowledge. "

"But, unfortunately, for any country in the world, education is not just about imparting knowledge."

"Its another social commonality is to stratify people who receive education and assume different social roles."

people, …

Qi Lei, "Education can be divided into three levels!"

Go back to the blackboard and wipe off all the excess blackboard writing, leaving only the parts of the hierarchy of needs pyramid and moral hierarchy.

The first level is to separate some people from the illiterate and street idiots, and cultivate them into qualified social animals! "

After briefly explaining what a social animal is, he continued, "To put it bluntly, this group of people doesn't need too high cultural knowledge and understanding of this society."

"You just need to play the social role you play in a down-to-earth way, and that's it."

"However, whether it is farmers or workers, this part of the people is destined to be incompetent for higher social division of labor and belong to the bottom."

"In China, it's roughly equivalent to nine years of compulsory education!"

"In other words, graduating from junior high school is enough."

Qi Lei, "This is the lowest level of people! Their characteristics, apart from their low literacy level and lack of critical thinking ability, is that they have almost no creativity."

"The way to improve life is relatively simple, that is, save the meager salary, and be diligent and thrifty. After a long period of hard work, you can only achieve food and clothing in the end, or pin your hopes on the next generation, and hardly have the ability to make a class transition. "

Most of the following students did not feel anything when they heard this. Because even if Qi Lei is right, they are already college students, that is to say, they do not belong to this level.

Only 20% of the sons feel the same way. His family conditions are not good, and his parents' educational level is not high.

Isn't it the level that Qi Lei said? You can only be a worker, or set up a street stall or something.

Qi Lei continued, "The second level is that after education removes the lowest level, it will do everything in its power to shape you into an excellent, skilled person who can be chosen by others!"

"This level is probably from high school to university, and then to graduate school."

"What you learn in school will become more and more difficult. While screening out some students who cannot keep up with the rhythm, it also allows everyone to have a relatively clear understanding of their own skills and specialties during the learning process."

"Ultimately, develop you into a skilled tool person."

"People at this level, who are involved in society, will have more room for development than those at the bottom."

"However, it is still difficult for most people to achieve breakthroughs except for a few people who can break through barriers and complete the class transition. That is to say, they are destined to live an ordinary life."

Guys,"

This time the resonance is big!

You think, young people in their twenties, who is not the boss of the sky and my second child? Who doesn't think they're special?

Now you suddenly tell me that my life is destined to be ordinary? Who can stand it?

Some people were unwilling, "Instructor Xiao Qi, is this really true?"

Qi Lei nodded, "It's true."

"But!" With a twist, he grinned, "Don't worry, because you are taking my class!"

Guys: "????"

Shen Haiming: "???"

What happened to your class?

Qi Lei, "My class is not teaching you the skills of the third level, but the direction of the third level!"

"direction?"

Qi Lei, "The third level of education, strictly speaking, should not be completed by the school, and it is difficult to completely hand it over to the school.

The third level teaches you the unity of people, money and direction. "

This should be done by family education, ethnic culture, and personal understanding of the world. "

"To put it bluntly, it is comprehension! Parents' comprehension, personal comprehension, and cultural comprehension."

Seeing that everyone was still confused, Qi Lei simply said, "I'll give you an example!"

"You should often hear some gossip, and the family thrives for generations. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"What kind of business family, the three generations of grandparents are all doctors, experts, or scholars."

"What do you think is the reason?"

Everyone didn't know why Qi Lei asked this, but after thinking about it, "Of course, if you have money, you have resources, and you have connections!"

Qi Lei smiled, "It makes sense, but not all."

"???"

Qi Lei, "The business family may have money and connections, but what about the academic family?"

people, . …

Qi Lei, "I know an old lady who studies economics, her husband is a physicist, and her two sons, one in physics and the other in water conservancy, are all first-class in China."

"Now, the granddaughter of the old lady is studying photovoltaic technology abroad. Not surprisingly, given her ten years, she should be a big winner in the domestic photovoltaic field."

"Not to mention, the family is very simple, and the connections between the old lady and her husband can't reach the younger son who is engaged in water conservancy, let alone the granddaughter. How can they do this?"

This..." The guys couldn't answer.

Qi Lei immediately gave the answer, "Because the education they received is different from ours!"

Everyone, "What's the difference?"

Qi Lei, "Because of family reasons, they can unify the relationship between people, money and direction very early."

Everyone doesn't understand, and some people still think that it is still a relationship between money and connections.
