Orphans of Asia, keep crying

To be honest, I really like Wang Zhi'an's interview program. The earliest one was "Situation" in China, as well as "Wang Jupai", which he founded overseas. Wang Jupai is also one of the channels I have subscribed to for a long time on YouTube. Unexpectedly, Wang Zhi'an was forced to apologize and even became homeless recently because of some remarks about the Taiwan election. To be honest, I sympathize.

The reason for this is that Wang Zhian participated in a local talk show "He Long Night Show" during his interview with Taiwan's general election, and was criticized by the Democratic Progressive Party for discriminating against the disabled, and then his visa was cancelled, and he was not allowed to visit Taiwan for five years.

I first saw this message on Weibo. To be honest, Wang Zhi'an discriminated against disabled people. Based on my observation of this person for many years, I don't believe it. Then I watched the whole issue of the "Helong Night Show". I didn't see Wang Zhi'an's comments about discrimination against disabled people in the interview of more than 20 minutes, I have some doubts: is it because of the pressure of the program group that I watched this episode and was forced to edit and retransmit it? No, then I saw the screenshot of the video saying that Wang Zhi'an discriminated against the disabled on Twitter. The video text is as follows:

Wang: The stage of the political election is like a concert scene. There are singers, then there are those who pave the way for the disabled, and those who push the disabled up to sensationalism. We used to have such programs in the mainland, which were called Art Life, and the Spring Festival Gala. They all said that music would come when the tears were coming. Then the disabled person said that he supported the Democratic Progressive Party.

Where does this sentence discriminate against the disabled? Anyone who has a little brain and has studied Chinese knows that Wang Zhian means that the DPP uses the disabled people's sympathy to win votes. Wang Zhian is not ashamed of the election methods adopted by the political parties that use the disabled.

But it didn't work. Those supporters of the Democratic Progressive Party seemed to have a collective climax in a flash, and they would not stop killing Wang Zhian: they announced the name, legal person, address, employee information of Wang Zhian's company in Japan, and even went to the bottom of Wang Zhian's company building. Wang Zhian counseled. Wang Zhian said in the video of apology that he had already been exiled overseas and could not go back, but his team, the people behind his production and his family and friends still needed to return home. He could not involve them.

Look at how familiar and despicable the means adopted by the so-called Democratic Progressive Party are. The party representing Taiwan's democracy is like the Communist Party of Afghanistan!

Speaking of discrimination, there is a dialogue in the "Helong Night Show":

Host: Now students begin to learn to speak branch language because they play dithering. Have you heard the word branch language?

Wang Zhian: Never heard of it

Host: What the Chinese say

Wang Zhian: Ah, what the Chinese say is called a branch language

Moderator: words

Wang Zhian: Which one is it?

F: Zhina's branch

Wang Zhian: Isn't China including Taiwan?

The host, women and audience laughed

Wang Zhian: In the eyes of Japanese, China includes Taiwan

Woman: Really?

Wang Zhian: Really

Hearing this paragraph, I got goose bumps all over. The woman with deep V chest covered her hands, covered her mouth, opened her teeth and looked puzzled: really da er! At the same time, I was shocked by the deep separation between China and Taiwan.

Anyone who has a little common sense knows that the word "China" is a discriminatory term used by Japan to address China in those days. As early as the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, even if you did not recognize China, your Taiwan would still have the flag of blue sky and white sun, and the Republic of China would not recognize it? Forget that Taiwan was called "South China" when it was colonized by Japan? Fortunately, Japan also blocked Wang Zhian. What's the difference between this and being a father?

I had a little expectation of Taiwan's democracy before, and I thought they might be the light of Chinese people, until I saw a bunch of laughing audience, ragtag crowd, go to his uncle's light of Chinese people!

The year 2023 will soon pass. I miss it very much, but I don't want to do it again. What I miss is the passage of time. I don't want to come back because a lot of pessimistic and disappointing things happened in this year. At the beginning of the year, my body suffered from chronic illness, which led me to anxiety and mild depression for a time, followed by several exam failures, investment gains and losses, personnel disputes and persistent self doubt. For most of the year, I felt that my body lacked energy, slept for a long time, and idled for a long time.

At the end of the year, I read a book "Believe" by Cai Lei, a patient with progressive frostbite. I don't know whether Cai Lei wrote this book himself or whether his dictation was collated and processed by others. But the experience of reading this book is the same as that of reading Yu Hua's "Alive": you sit there quietly, five or six hours later, the sky is dim, There is nothing you can do about the ups and downs of death. You only feel that your nose is blocked, your chest is depressed, and you can't calm down for a long time. Just like Fugui's final choice to live is the reason for living, Cai Lei's choice to believe is the explanation for believing, because there is no other way.

When I was young, I had a romantic idea about death. When I saw Haizi, Zhang Guorong, and Kete Cobain, I felt that life should burn and not wait until the lights ran out. When you see, hear and experience too many deaths, you suddenly change your attitude towards life: when you come to the world, you should see the sun and walk on the street with your sweetheart. You don't know what will happen in the future. You don't have to miss the past. What you have is experience At this moment, no matter how happy or sad, you can grasp What you can do is just at this moment, regardless of joys and sorrows believe It can only be at this moment, regardless of resentment, love, parting, and begging.

As a billionaire, Cai Lei wrote such an episode in the book "Believe": as the world's first incurable disease, Cai Lei was inevitably cheated by the various tricks of the Jianghu doctors after he got the disease. He cheated too much, and sometimes he couldn't defeat his friends' good intentions, so he let his friends go to experience it for free

The elder sister comes to the clinic once a week, and I also hope to confirm the effect of early treatment with her, so I have an appointment with her.

……

"But the legs are still like that... The legs are weak..." The elder sister's ambiguous pronunciation has not landed yet, and suddenly she was interrupted by "Shifu": "Didn't you get cured that day? What have you done these two days? Did you stay up late again?"

After two or three days of contact, "Master" always spoke in a gentle voice, and the sudden reprimand startled my wife and me. The elder sister on the opposite side immediately closed her mouth and did not dare to speak again. Her eyes swept around the room, leaving nowhere to put them.

I have contacted my elder sister by phone many times before, Each time she said "effective" with certainty, and the determination in her tone did not sound like a fabrication.

But today, I finally understand what is going on. When evaluating the treatment effect, the therapist will repeatedly guide you to believe that your arms are higher, your fingers are more straight than before, and your whole body meridians are more unblocked. These words will give patients a strong psychological hint, and gradually you will feel from your heart that "really, the arms are higher, the fingers are straight, and the meridians are more open". To put it bluntly, faith is soul. If you believe that the treatment is effective, it is really effective.

Then it suddenly occurred to me that I could never read the great book of success called Human Weakness. I remember which chapter in the first chapter, which roughly means that Carnegie said that when a salesperson woke up every day, he said to himself that he wanted to be a sales champion and I wanted to be a sales champion, and then he finally became a sales champion. When I read this, I scolded: Isn't this a fucking lie? I also want to become the President of the country? I threw the book away because I didn't believe in the fabricated story.

However, the real strength of the placebo effect in psychology is that even if you know you are taking a placebo, the placebo effect still exists. Cai Lei later moved his house and changed his name. Of course, the frostbite did not heal itself. But with these placebo effects and psychological hints, the pineal gland of the brain secreted more melatonin, and then ended his insomnia for six months.

This inconspicuous little segment in Believe made me suddenly start to look at myself, because in the first half of my life, I was full of vigilance to the world, and regarded my disbelief as my principle of doing things. Maybe I had experienced too many failures, or perhaps I was deeply impressed with some failures. I always ask myself: Why me? So I always look at people, things and things around me from the perspective of outsiders.

Maybe it's time for me to change my perspective. This is my biggest gain and enlightenment in the past 2023.

Lao Luo and Lao Yu

Later, I was no longer so persistent about the values I firmly believed in when I was young. Of course, I did not completely deny the past. I was so strongly separated from my past. As I was too painful, and people were always seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages and avoiding pain, so I entered the middle age of drifting with the tide: I no longer tried to change others, and I could not even change myself. The last straw I can hold is to look at what they have done, just look at it, because it is still a long time, and everything will change in my lifetime.

I first knew that Lao Luo was watching his speech at Jilin University on Wang Xiaofeng's blog. At that time, I should have been in my early twenties and had just entered the society. In the nearly two hours of jokes, I said: It's strange to say, although there is no wind on campus, But the five-star red flag is still flying over the campus and among all the people who exchange hair with me, you are the only one who did not use a short film to pretend to be a long film to fool me. This kind of thing, which used to be unknown, can now be defined as a talk show. If the memory is not poor, I even packed a night in an Internet cafe with a girl to spend the night relying on Lao Luo's jokes.

Later, like many people, we listened to Laoluo's quotations. Laoluo's quotation can really make a young man who has not yet set his sights on three aspects think about some social problems, such as why I want to stay in my own country for a long time, I think whether to live for a long time, and whether to have children is a natural human right like eating, pooping and sleeping. Do you understand that?

I come from the countryside. Most of the men in my hometown are craftsmen. After the Lantern Festival every year, they basically go to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to make a deep living. During the Spring Festival, I often hear about evading the temporary residence permit check. I can even remember my cousin, Pico Sheng and Pico Se, describing his lucky escape from the back wall and the old policeman's eyes, When I was young, I thought that my cousin was quick and unafraid of law enforcement, but I never thought why I should stay in my own country temporarily.

Then there is family planning. When I learned to read, family planning had been painted on the wall behind the school building early, and everyone was responsible. Under this subtle influence, I also felt that there were too many people and resources to eat the rationality of this logic. But I didn't know that I was a lucky person in family planning. As the second child in my family, when I was born, the door of my family was turned up, The furniture and dinner table in the family were taken away, then fined, and then the black family. In the countryside, I had no land until my grandmother died. There were five people in our family, but only four people had land.

So when people are in their twenties, they hear these quotations for the first time. Combined with their own life experience, they will let you fall into some thinking about social problems. If you think, there will be choices, there will be precipitation, and if there is precipitation, there will be a brain pathway. Finally, we call it "Three Views". Lao Luo really has a great influence on me in this respect. I have some very stubborn opinions about myself. A large part of the way forward comes from Lao Luo, such as not believing in traditional Chinese medicine.

I am not very familiar with Lao Yu. As a non problem writer in a small town, I entered the society early before I came to know him. It is learned that he saw a piece of news after the introduction of the double reduction policy last year: employees pay top compensation, the full amount of tuition fees collected plus refunds of liquidated damages, and all tables and chairs are donated. This seemingly ordinary news can tell you how great it is if you combine China's national conditions with your peers.

Then I read some of his videos and books, such as "I was on the verge of collapse", and found that this is a great person. The reason why I made this judgment also stems from some personnel I have experienced. Most of these personnel may also have met.

When I was studying, I had a friend A, who was from a poor family and plain looking. His talent for reading was not very high, even his communication ability was good. Then I watched this friend achieve more than average success step by step, and after more people experienced, I found that those who have done things seem to have these two characteristics: patience and abrasion. When I was young, I disdained these two characteristics. At that time, I admired the talented players, those who didn't need to read books, could understand them at one point, and could get started, I think such talents are talents, and they are the sons of God and God.

But gradually I don't see it that way. A person can endure no matter what his or her situation is, and he or she can stick to one thing and make continuous progress in the midst of chaos. This may be the way ordinary people do not hide in the vast world.

Lao Yu took the college entrance examination three times, ranking at the bottom of Peking University all the year round. The only underachiever in his class who had never left the country and was dismissed from teaching by Peking University was Leng Shih, who gradually achieved success over most of his class in the secular sense. Leng Shih, who was hit by the disaster of extinction in New Oriental, created Oriental Selection to lead the stock price of New Oriental to turn upside down, Sometimes I think he really means something to Zeng Guofan. His endurance, fighting ability and ability to turn the plate against the wind are extremely strong, far from being the iron rooster in old Luokou.

On the contrary, I gradually found that Lao Luo was a little bit out of his depth of ambition and talent. If it were so awesome, he would not write a ten thousand word cover letter to Lao Yu when he was in his thirties. No matter how he explained the word "gratitude", Lao Yu could give a high school dropout a chance, and the pattern would not be low. In addition, as a loyal user of the former Hammer mobile phone, I haven't seen Lao Luo get up after the bankruptcy of the former Hammer mobile phone, but Lao Yu has come out after New Oriental. Of course, it will be a long time before we see.

In addition, there seems to be a touchstone that has been gradually believed by me over time: what a person says does not matter, but what he does.

Let's make the world a little better and work hard!
