Chapter 155: The Book of War
Now that the mission is complete, it's time to think about what to read in the next book.
Han Luoyin's favorability has reached the standard, and he can recommend books now, and there is also an original English version of "Game Theory" in the candidate area.
Fang Xiaowu is not short of books to read, but he lacks a book that is most helpful to the current situation.
Game Theory is certainly useful, but it is too many words, and it is the original English version, which must be difficult to read and slow to progress.
Can you do it in a month?
Fang Xiaowu wasn't sure.
Seeing that Chu Tian was short of money to finance, Nian Hua and they were pondering entering the market, and the abilities and skills attached to "Game Theory" would definitely not come in handy.
And what book Han Luoyin will recommend, the luck component is too big and completely uncontrollable.
At this moment, Fang Xiaowu immediately remembered the reward saved in the last growth task - that cross-category reading opportunity.
Not now, but when?
As for what books to read...... The name of a divine book flashed in Fang Xiaowu's mind for the first time.
The Art of War!
The ancient Chinese military classics, after more than 2,500 years of time, are still unfading, and are known as the first of the three major war works in the world, but more than 2,300 years earlier than the second-ranked "Theory of War".
And it is not just a military work, the strategic ideas and philosophical ideas expounded in it have aroused the exploration and research of scholars in various fields around the world, and have been widely used in military, political, economic and other fields.
Its content is broad and profound, the ideas are rich and rich, and the logic is rigorous, and it still has a strong guiding significance and practical role today, and the United States Military Academy at West Point and Harvard Business School have listed it as a required reading textbook, and the neon business community still regards it as a sacred book.
Konosuke Matsushita, founder of Neon Panasonic, said: "The Art of War is the first god in the world, and we must bow and worship, recite it carefully, and use it flexibly in order for the company to develop." ”
This is definitely not a commercial blow-up! Konosuke said so, and he also demanded this from his juniors and subordinates.
In fact, putting aside those nouveau riche with special circumstances, the vast majority of the world's business and political elites with formal backgrounds have read "The Art of War", and more than 80 of the world's top 100 universities list "The Art of War" as a must-read or recommended reading.
This is the treasure of Chinese civilization, and it is the crystallization of the wisdom of the descendants of Yan and Huang.
Fang Xiaowu has a copy of "The Art of War", which is an eleven annotated version.
Although he was only a scumbag in elementary school before, he always liked to read ancient texts and ancient poems, otherwise he would not have bought "Ancient Literature Guanzhi" for no reason and picked up the system.
It's just that when I used to read Sun Tzu, it was really just reading, the sound can be calibrated, and the broken sentences came according to the version, and what understanding and feeling existed at all.
If it weren't for the current problem, Fang Xiaowu might have waited until the system was upgraded to level 3 or 4 before turning out the "Art of War", but now, he decided to read this book in advance.
The second-level system may be rewarded with dissatisfaction, it doesn't matter, read it again at the third level, and there will be greater gains.
This book can be read for a lifetime, and the effect is better when eaten in combination with experience.
"System, use cross-category reading permissions, target The Art of War! and then confirm, do I only need to read the text, or do I have to read it along with the annotations?"
[Since it is a special book with many editions and annotations, the "Art of War" is calibrated, and only the text can be read]
That's good, the annotations are all the understandings of the predecessors, Fang Xiaowu doesn't want to believe it, he has an ambition hidden in his heart - I hope that one day, I can read my own understanding.
Flipping out of the book, I began to read word by word, while my brain was spinning at high speed, thinking deeply.
There are countless famous sayings in "The Art of War", many of which are widely disseminated and familiar to junior high school students.
Like what:
Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked.
The husband who does not fight and the temple is counted as the victor, and the person who does not fight and the temple is not victorious, it is counted as less. More wins, less wins, and nothing counts!
Therefore, the army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city.
Know each other and know yourself, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
……
Every time you read a sentence, you can confirm your own experience and gain something.
What is "Cha"?
In Fang Xiaowu's understanding, this is a big picture, which can also be explained very appropriately in the current Internet buzzword - there is a B number in his heart.
Knowing what to do, what not to do, when you can do it and when you can't do it, this is the overall guiding ideology before doing things.
What is "temple calculation"?
To put it bluntly, it is to "weigh and weigh", compare the overall strength of the enemy and us, and measure it on the scale, and it is clear at a glance who is awesome and who is second.
How to carry out "temple calculation"?
You have to know yourself and your opponent, all kinds of strengths are taken apart and fiddled with one by one, where is it worse than others, can you still have a B number in your heart?
Fang Xiaowu had actually been acting in accordance with the military strategic thinking of "The Art of War" for a long time, and he was worried that the Chutian Group was not relying on two skills, and he was going to rush up as soon as his head was hot.
In his previous speech, Li Jiesi was pitted to vomit blood, but in fact, he already had B numbers in his heart, and he thought about everything he should consider more comprehensively.
There is pressure from public opinion, there is Chen Guan and the deputy mayor to support it, the periphery is axiom and moral law, and there is Mo Ziyan's powerful connections inside, and he is sure that Li Zhan can't turn it over, so he made such a big move.
Isn't this "temple calculation" and "plotting"?
In today's situation, if you want to further attack Li Zhan and his son, the level will rise to the field of business management, and the original calculations will not be enough, and you must re-plan.
The first thing is to know yourself and your opponent...... In other words, access to information.
Fang Xiaowu's calmness lies in the fact that it is clear that the ruffian Lu and Nianhua have already been sent to the door, but he is not in a hurry at all.
Isn't there a hurry?
How can it be!
But no matter how anxious he is, he can't show urgency, this is a war between rats and tigers, no matter how cautious he is, he will not reveal the slightest hostility until the necessary moment, and he will not even let outsiders know the slightest idea.
So he was waiting, waiting for the ruffian Lu and Nianhua to take the initiative to tell him more things, and to gather intelligence in a nonchalant manner until he found the right time to intervene.
More wins, less wins.
Fang Xiaowu actually didn't like this kind of calculation, his personality was still inclined to solve problems simply and rudely.
has a system in his body, as long as he has enough patience, over time, he will definitely be able to kill Li Zhan's father and son in a dignified manner.
However, Fang Xiaowu regarded this as a tempering of himself, just like the description of the system task-
Gather all the wisdom, courage, and strength, and break through your own limits to verify your growth.
So he won't shrink, he won't wait, he won't use violent means to play humane destruction, he just wants to see how far I can go by playing with you within the scope of the rules!
