Chapter 742: Why Is Japan Stagnant?
"We can simply look at these two ideas as 'old-fashioned' and 'innovative', and I want to say one thing here, that is, the old that is old, is mostly good, and innovation is not necessarily good. ¥≠Although these two words, from our current point of view, are a derogatory meaning, a positive meaning, who praises and who degrades, you must know in your hearts......"
Although Wu Xiang was talking slowly, Feng Xiaogang and Lei Yang were already not interjecting.
"But let's see, I don't think I need to talk about innovation, you all understand. But this new is just new, and the new is not necessarily right, right? What about guarding the old? In fact, it is on the old, the old, as soon as you hear it, you know that it is not very good, the old, but there is no value in it? For some studies, especially in history, the old itself is value, and the old also represents that thing, which was right in the past, and was successful. Let's talk about architecture, that thing has existed for so many years, isn't that a kind of success? Let's go back to this movie, this Peking Opera, Peking Opera for so many years, and there are still many people who are fascinated, what does this mean? It shows that Peking Opera is very successful, and this old one is a good thing......
"So, innovation is not good?" Lei Yang naturally asked, along the way, yes, that's the truth.
"That's not right, right?" It's okay, Feng Xiaogang hasn't been wrapped around yet.
Yes, if innovation is not good, then how did we get to be where we are now?
Wu Xiang smiled, "Let's put it this way, and the things we innovate, new things, are not necessarily good." A large part of these innovations is so to speak. The vast majority of new things will be finished and will fail. That is, it is not good. So I'm going to ask you now, do you want the new that might fail, or the old that has already succeeded?"
"......" was silent, and both of them were silent, because this matter was really difficult to choose.
Wu Xiang is right, this is indeed the case, as long as it is left from the past, it seems that there are really few bad things, and new things. Maybe there are such and such problems, such as movies, many movies are playing with innovation, creativity, and some are even particularly forward-looking, but most of these movies are dead, and only a few are still impressive.
So why don't we choose the good one, that is, the 'old' one, right? It's a normal logic.
"Shoko. You're awesome, what the hell are you going to say, just be it. ”
Feng Xiaogang really couldn't hold it back, he really wanted Wu Xiang to tell the truth now. Even if it's some kind of brainwashing, that's fine.
"Let me give you an example first...... "Wu Xiang, this guy is like this."
"......" Feng Xiaogang and Lei Yang's eyes are like eating people.
Wu Xiangna was naturally unmoved. He smiled and said, "Don't worry. This is an interesting example, and that is Japan. What do you think of Japanese society?"
Japan?
How did this suddenly bring the topic to the island nation? What the hell is this talking about?
However, Lei Yang immediately wiped his mouth, "Little Japan, is the society okay?" A group of otaku, I think their remarks on the Internet are simply funny, and if there is Fukushima, sooner or later there will be a bump man!"
Sure enough, the five self-employed people don't have a good impression of Little Japan.
"Xiangzi, what do you want to say?" Feng Xiaogang is not self-sufficient, he is still sober.
"Let's start with Japan. Wu Xiang replied to Brother Feng, and then said with a smile: "It is undeniable that what you said is zài, but if you want to say that Japan, this society, is really rich enough, really very mature, very mature." Although their economy has been stagnant for so long, we must also say that the Japanese were successful in those days. You may not know, Japan is now a big exporter of diamonds, hehe, it's second-hand diamonds, they used to buy them, but now they can't live anymore, so they take them out and sell them, and they even become a big diamond exporter by relying on this, which shows how successful they used to be. So, do you know the reason why Japan is stagnant now?"
It turned out that Wu Xiang wanted to talk about this.
Why did Japan stagnate? Why did their economy fail? And in 2o14 it was in recession? Why is that? Is it because of Ampere's three arrows?
It seems to have something to do with Ampesang, but if we only look at this appearance, we are wrong.
This question is very interesting, Wu Xiang said, "I know what Lei Zi thinks, you will definitely think of the "Plaza Agreement", and the other is the matter of Ampersan. But we have to see that it's been 3o years since the Plaza Accord, and that's a bit of a stretch of rage, isn't it?
"......" Lei Yang didn't expect that Wu Xiang knew what he was thinking.
Wu Xiang continued: "In fact, it is very simple, that is, Japan's current economic problems, you can't simply give the responsibility to Ampere, although this guy's three arrows are really useless, but make Japan even more miserable, but I want to tell you sù, Japan's economy, in fact, in the past few decades, has been like a pool of stagnant water, Ampere is nothing at all, let's just say that before, it was almost all the means to stimulate the economy, and it was all useless. ”
Hey, this is good, speaking of which, Lei Yang smiled, anyway, as long as he said that little Japan was not good, then of course he would be happy.
Wu Xiang told the truth, and he also gave an example, "Just one thing, Japan also attaches great importance to the construction of infrastructure like China, and they really invest money in this place." Generally speaking, this trick has been used all over the world, and basically all countries are easy to use, and they can stimulate the economy. However, in the case of Japan, it is strange and useless! To what extent has Japan's infrastructure been built? When it comes to high roads, the Japanese themselves say that there are quite a few high roads. Maybe only the bear walks on it. ”
"Hahaha......" Lei Yang smiled, and Mr. Wu's joke was very vivid.
"So. You say, why did Ampere do all those things? It's useless at all, and it's even worse, but the Japanese people choose him?" Wu Xiang asked himself, "Because it's very simple, it's the same anyway, whoever comes to power is like that, Ampere continues to do it, maybe he can toss a little less." ”
"Hahaha......" Lei Yang is very enjoyable.
"I said, Shoko, don't you think there's been a lot of talk in Japan lately? My wife said that she was going to Japan to buy a toilet seat. Feng Xiaogang smelled something.
No, it's the case of Japan, which illustrates the relationship between conservatism and innovation. Wu Xiang explained.
"Then you mean, the little devils don't innovate, they are old-fashioned?" Feng Xiaogang speculated.
"It can't be said that little Japan can still innovate and have new things in some aspects. But these things don't contradict what I'm saying. Let's just say what kind of innovation is innovation in Japan? It's all about small things, or in other words, it's about striving for perfection, that is, doing better on the basis of what is original. That's a characteristic of Japanese goods, isn't it? But this is their characteristic. In fact, it can be magnified into Japanese society, and the whole society can be seen, just like Japanese products. But as I said before, that is. Innovation, innovation. One of the characteristics of these things is that the new is not necessarily good, and it may not be successful, but what about Japanese things? What about Japanese innovation? Actually, they all have a major premise, that is, if they follow the road of success, for example, Japanese products are originally very good, and the Japanese have made this thing better.
Wu Xiang's words were a little twisty, and it seemed that it was difficult to understand, but Wu Xiang told the mystery next.
"Actually, it's very simple, that is, the reason why Japan's economy is stagnant now is because they just want to create a 'good', not a 'bad', what they do, production, consumption, as well as economic policies, legislation, are all to get good results, which in itself is not wrong. However, the Japanese reject the 'bad' thing, and their approach is to shield out the possibility of 'bad' things! To put it simply, they have discarded one of the necessary components of innovation, and that is failure!"
Throw away the failure, but, wait, this seems to ......
Wu Xiang didn't stop, he continued: "Yes, they want to give up failure, but as everyone knows, it is precisely because of this abandonment that they think they are doing the right thing, but the final result is economic stagnation, that is, complete failure!"
The derivation process of this theory is really too winding, but this result, it is really interesting.
It is precisely because we want to avoid the possibility of failure that we end up with failure itself...... That's what Wu Xiang said, right?
So why is that, and why does it inevitably 'fail'?
"Why?" Yes, Lei Yang asked this question.
"Because the Japanese are just conservative, there is a whole system in Japan that keeps big companies from dying. When we look at Japan now, there are some large companies, such as Toyota, that are very efficient, but in the G7, Japan's overall national efficiency is the last! It is the 20th place in the world! That is to say, what we see seems to be Japanese people working overtime, but in fact, even Italy, which is full of lazy people in the whole country, is more efficient than Japan! What does this mean? Doesn't that mean that there are a large number of companies in Japan, but in fact they are not efficient at all, and they are simply dragging down Japanese society? But! Japan just won't let these companies die!"
"Then Mr. Wu, do you have a way to make the Japanese economy improve a little? Even a little?" Lei Yang was very curious at this time, because Wu Xiang said so much, maybe he had a way.
"I don't have a rut, no one, the whole world doesn't, because you can't make a group of people who refuse to fail succeed, and failure is the mother of success, this is a wise saying. ”
Hahaha...... It's interesting, but.
"Then I listen to you, it's better to be 'innovative', didn't you say 'old-fashioned'?"
Feng Xiaogang grabbed Wu Xiang's handle...... (To be continued!)
