However, although the development of Yulan City is not too good, as a provincial capital, Yulan City, some other cities basically have, just like the current amusement park, Yulan City also exists, but unlike other large cities, these amusement facilities in Yulan City are updated a lot slower.

But even in this case, it is still very attractive to Xiao Yingying, and after a little meal, she hurriedly ran into the amusement park and had a good time for a few hours.

Some of the amusement park attractions may be a little scary for the average person, such as roller coasters, pirate ships, and even those less scary haunted houses. But these things are really nothing to Xiao Yingying, in her eyes, these things are just like ordinary small toys, very interesting, but not afraid. And these thrilling projects are naturally nothing in Wu Ling's eyes.

On the contrary, when entering the haunted house, because she felt interesting, Xiao Yingying conjured up a little ghost and appeared in front of the staff who played ghosts, but scared the other party enough. Wu Ling didn't have much reaction to Xiao Yingying's small actions, in his opinion, this is the behavior that a child should have. It's just that after that, I deliberately warned Xiao Yingying that she was not allowed to do these things in front of other children, and she was not allowed to take the initiative to scare others.

For Wu Ling's instructions, Xiao Yingying naturally agreed, as for how much the other party really listened, Wu Ling really didn't have much confidence. But anyway, their first meeting was relatively harmonious.

After the amusement park closed, Wu Ling walked out of the amusement park with the reluctant Xiao Yingying. Actually, in his current capacity. It is completely possible to let the amusement park receive them exclusively, no matter what time of day they play, there is no problem. But Wu Ling didn't want to use these privileges. In his previous life, he was not used to these things, and now he has become a member of the privilege. Naturally, he also had to exercise a little restraint.

And I don't want Xiao Yingying to be exposed to these things since she was a child, although Xiao Yingying is not an ordinary child, but Wu Ling still hopes that Xiao Yingying's growth environment is a little simpler, and getting in touch with power and money too early is really not good for the child's growth.

Although this is a dislocated era, everyone's pursuit has quietly changed from the original spiritual aspect to the current material pursuit, and from the more than 2,000 years of history of China since the Qin Dynasty, it is basically the history of the rulers and the people under the guidance of the power culture, and the history of the farce together. The kind of science and technology of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The period of rapid development of ideology and culture in which a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, is no longer beautiful. Since then, China has never made such great progress. Most of the time, it's just a kind of historical stumbling of two steps back, or even one step back and two steps back. When the world is at approximately the same stage of ancient history. This cultural difference is not easy to distinguish. When the world has entered the modern era of rapid progress in science and technology, ideology and culture, and political system. Cultural differences are becoming more and more obvious.

The rational spirit of the West and the sect. Religious consciousness, as well as a strong sense of individual self, are the basic resources for the emergence of the concept of modern civilization. For more than 2,000 years, the social form of theocracy and the historical pattern of continuous revolution and substitution. The basic resources that led to these three important ideas of modern civilization are increasingly lacking. This is in a later chapter. They will also be discussed separately.

In Europe, although there have been widespread System. But it's specialized. The system was weakened by numerous laws, territorial divisions, and strong ecclesiastical influence. Far from reaching the height of the Oriental land. degree of system. Therefore, the monarchs, officials, intellectuals and lower classes of the people of the European countries. has not been so "corrupted" by the Chinese-style power culture. The aristocratic bearing and aristocratic demeanor have been preserved. The spirit of tolerance, equality and fraternity of the Holy See has been carried forward. Freedom, people. The concepts of power, democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law have been conceived, developed, and matured in it. And today's Chinese society. But there is still a powerful force that rejects these ideas of modern civilization. That's a stark contrast of cultural differences!

Every social form has its own type of culture. The Chinese nation is relatively independent of the East of the world. Five thousand years of civilization. In particular, the great unification of the imperial power in the past three thousand years. A rather unique cultural system has developed into a society. This system encompasses all aspects of political system, economic form, ideological system, social structure, literature and art, way of thinking, and even the subconscious.

In the Chinese language and writing. The word weight originally referred to the weight in the measuring instrument. Later, it was extended into authority, power, and flexibility. Instead, the extended meaning becomes the main meaning. The original meaning of the word has been forgotten. This has resulted in a large number of phrases with the word power as the root. For example: power, power, power, authority, power, power, conspiracy, etc. These phrases. Strength, profit, prestige, nobility, and scheming are all associated with authority. This abominable and contemptible connection is very obvious in the title. The Chinese nation's worship of power has thus entered the bones of memory symbols. Make the social color of "power standard" extremely strong! Other peoples of the world, other countries. Historically, we have also suffered for a long time from the lack of effective supervision and checks and balances on state power. However, there is a historical and cultural lack of checks and balances on state power, but China must be the first to be promoted!

The traditional social mechanism of China is a social mechanism of great unification and high centralization. And it was a mechanism that ultimately concentrated power in the hands of the emperor alone. "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." Not only political power, but also economic power, was concentrated in the emperor. Its structure is a home-state isomorphic structure. The Emperor's family is the largest, most authoritative, and richest family in the country. "The sanctity of private property" does not exist in the concept of Chinese people. As a result, the public power that needs the most checks and balances is the most lacking in Chinese society. Chinese society not only seriously lacks this kind of supervision and balance mechanism. Moreover, due to the power cult complex of the whole society, it has contributed to the frequent vicious expansion of state power. In China, state power is fully understood as the right to rule. That is, the right to govern the whole people. Even herders who see the people as cattle and sheep and can graze and slaughter at will. This can be understood from the fact that there were titles such as state pastor in the names of ancient officials in China. Even if the name was later changed. "Rather than listen to the order to destroy the door, Yin Ye?". A county magistrate has enough power to destroy your door. Do you think this absolute power is terrible?

The traditional social mechanism of China is that corrupt officials and people with fame and fortune have an advantage in the upper echelons of society. It is often the mechanism by which the "meat eaters despised" and the disdainful are unlikely to become "meat eaters". It is a mechanism for villains to always get their will. It is the mechanism of "the yellow bell is destroyed, and the tiles are thundering". It is a mechanism in which clean officials, good people, good people, and those with outstanding qualities are often eliminated. It is the mechanism of the slave defeating the talent, and the male talent assisting the stupid.

Huaguo's social mechanism is a mechanism of "learning and excellence". It is a mechanism for "reading the books of the sages and sending them to the emperor's family". Intellectuals cannot strive for an independent socio-economic status on their own. Only vassals can live in power. Therefore, the mentality of concubines who are dependent on power has entered the bones from the system and psychology. In such a society, it is difficult for Chinese intellectuals to assume the role of social conscience and brain. Thinkers like Locke, Rousseau, and Montesquieu who made great contributions to modern political science and institutional design. It is impossible to appear on the land of China. In such a social mechanism, an outstanding intellectual like Du Fu who is full of social conscience. There can only be "knocking on the door of the rich children, following the fat horse dust at dusk, the residual cup and the cold burning." gloom and sorrow". The social mechanism of Huaguo remains unchanged, and this can only be the eternal fate of China's outstanding intellectuals!

The traditional social mechanism of China is also a mechanism that pushes risk concealment to the end. It is good news and not bad news, whitewashing. Peace, a mechanism that deliberately conceals the crisis at the beginning of the crisis. This concealment has become a cultural and historical habit. The asymmetry of information obtained by the top of the ruler develops to the end, and the top is willing to deceive itself into believing this asymmetric information for its own benefit. Often, for the sake of consolidating their own positions, they are reluctant to carry out effective political reforms. And at the expense of the long-term interests of the country and the nation. They have intensified their efforts to build and develop their own ruling structures and interest groups. This construction is completely contrary to normal political reform. On the contrary, it will lead to the development of corruption to the extreme. The illusion of a "peaceful and prosperous world" was maintained to the last as possible. This kind of mechanism can easily cause society to break and collapse in a sudden situation with almost no mental preparation.

Due to rot. Defeat erodes all areas of society without exception. Chinese society will often slide into the social mechanism of "inverse effect". All normal ways of thinking, normal judgment of right and wrong, and normal program operation often fail to obtain normal results. On the contrary, the unspoken rules, negative morality, and grandiose prevalence that were originally in a hidden state prevailed. Thereupon. Abnormal operations are successful. For example, bribery. Bribery and counterfeiting are rampant in society. It is a typical manifestation of this "inverse effect society".

In this cultural atmosphere and cultural soil, the mechanism of cultural inverse effect has become a chronic disease. What has emerged is the mechanism of Huai orange into orange at the level of the whole society, politics and economy, and the mechanism of bad money driving out good money.

The traditional way of thinking of the Chinese people. It's basically an "either/or, good or bad." black and white". This method has seriously damaged the rational thinking of the Chinese people. This method of thinking will often lead to a philosophy of struggle such as "not breaking and not standing, not stuffing and not flowing, breaking and standing in it". This is also one of the ideological and cultural roots of the formation of a historical pattern of continuous revolution and substitution in Chinese society.

The traditional social mechanism of China. There will be a kind of politics that is constantly replacing and constantly changing. Pattern of rights. In such a social mechanism, there is no good communication, understanding and compromise balance between all levels of society. On the contrary, the whole society is almost always in the midst of open and covert struggle. This kind of infighting destroys the continuity and gradual nature of historical development. And seriously undermined the cohesion of the nation, the centripetal force. Rounds of power struggles have caused many valuable historical opportunities to be missed. Many lives and precious cultural heritage have been destroyed. With it, a large number of land resources, cultural resources, and ecological resources have disappeared. All this became a victim of the struggle of the heroes of power. What is left behind is a poor, ignorant, backward country.

Under the influence of the culture of power, there is a huge room for society to tolerate the vicious expansion of power. The people's silence and subservience to tyranny are rooted in experience. The power is often encouraged to do whatever it wants. Society is repeatedly dragged into the abyss. This vicious circle has made the model of China's historical development a model with almost no substantial progress!

The politics that is constantly replacing and constantly changing. The pattern of power has intensified in modern China. And specialized. However, the degree of control is often intensified. This pattern. It has seriously damaged the relatively stable relationship between all levels of society. It also seriously undermines the mentality of the ruler and the ruled. so that it cannot have its own stable social role positioning. Society cannot maintain a stable, sustained, and orderly space for development. There is a serious sense of fragmentation in the development of history. This pattern often envelops the whole society in an atmosphere of impetuous restlessness. Deep in the heart of the ruler. There is a mood of nouveau riche and unsettled mentality. Arrogant and lascivious, and happy in time. The mentality of "after me, even if the flood is monstrous" permeates the upper echelons. The only thing lacking is a sense of social responsibility and care and compassion for the disadvantaged.

The ruled class is not treated fairly and humanely. The living environment and living conditions are getting worse and worse, and the basic living conditions are poor and fragile and restless. Such a pattern has caused the entire society to react as impetuousness in the political, economic, and cultural aspects. Good traditions are not passed on and carried forward, but bad traditions are dregs and are carried forward in a heinous way. The flowers of vulgarity compete to bloom in such a climatic soil. Social contradictions and social crises have not been effectively resolved, but are accumulating at a high rate. The corrupt forces are so unscrupulous that they have brazenly become the dominant force in society. Until society is corrupted to the point of collapse!

A society, whether it is a capitalist system or not, will have a lot of money and a lot of wealth. This money and wealth also always tends to be concentrated in the hands of certain people or institutions. Whether it is an individual or an organization, as long as they have money or wealth that exceeds their needs in life, how they use that money will have an impact on society. The greater the amount of money, the greater the impact on society. Therefore, the essence of huge sums of money should be understood that achievement is social power. The basis of this social power is the profit-seeking nature of each individual, and the use of money is equivalent to the exercise of social power. It's just that when a person's amount of money is small, the result of his spending is more of an impact on himself, and the results of each individual's influence on themselves must be summed up to see the impact on society. And the huge wealth of the rich, as long as a signature, a contract, a decision can have a great impact on society. Bill Gates as the richest man in the world for many years in a row. His largest philanthropic donation in the world has made us see more clearly the essence of "money is power".

Money and power often go hand in hand. No matter what kind of society you are in, money can be obtained by relying on power. This is the so-called "original sin of capital". Since the modernization of capitalism, the original sin of capital seems to have been gradually forgiven. So for the colonizers for the crime of plundering the colonies. This is true for the slave traders, and for the brutal oppression of domestic workers in the early days of capitalism. Even in today's China, the same is true of the primitive capital accumulation of all kinds of nouveau riche. In today's world, because of the need of developed countries to cover up their original crimes, they generally have a tolerant attitude towards the original sin of capital. The so-called original sin of capital is actually the result of the improper use of power. Although this phenomenon is unpleasant, it does not change the present by settling with the past.

In the early days of capitalism, the supreme social principles such as the sanctity of private property and the inviolability of individual freedom led many capitalists who held a lot of money to spend money only to satisfy their own selfish desires. If we refer to the concept that "money is social power", then the capitalists spending money lavishly for themselves can be regarded as "using power for personal gain" and can be regarded as using social power to serve individuals. Although this kind of "abuse of power for personal gain" will not be criminalized by law, it will be condemned by the public morality of society, because this kind of behavior will do more harm than good to society. A person who has a lot of money and squanders a lot of personal inflated desires often ends up becoming a loser, fulfilling the old saying that "you can't be rich for three generations". This phenomenon can be seen as the end result of society depriving itself of the parasites that hold social power but do not contribute to it.

One of the most serious problems of the early years of capitalism was the prevalence of the "use of power for personal gain" of money power. Not many capitalists realize that the huge amount of money in the name of an individual is a kind of social power. They equate this digital social power with the individual. Power, the use of social power entirely to serve the individual, creates the ugly reality of rampant materialism, and also causes the social tragedy of the gap between the rich and the poor. After several great crises, especially after the socialist movement, capitalist society was the first solution to this problem. It is the use of state power to reduce the social power held by individual capitalists. The state's high welfare system is to deprive the capitalists of a part of their social power. It is under the control of the national government, which exercises it in the areas that are most beneficial to society. And the socialist system strengthens this power of money to the extreme: except for the government. No one can have it.

High taxes are in fact depriving the capitalists of their individuals. Power. The modern capitalist high-welfare system has a dilemma when it partially deprives the capitalists of their power: when the deprivation is severe, it becomes socialist, and this result will lead to a decline in the competitiveness and wealth creation capacity of society; If the deprivation is light, social power will be useless and will not play much role. Before Bill Gates became a philanthropist, the vast majority of capitalists' philanthropic actions were either purely motivated by personal goodwill or an advertisement for themselves to make a good name. Few people are clearly aware that spending large sums of money is actually exercising social power. Even Ted Turner, the first CNN founder to donate $1 billion mentioned yesterday. I was only vaguely aware of this problem, and I found out that the more you donate, the more money you earn.

I'm not sure when Bill Gates became aware of this issue, but Turner's $1 billion donation clearly inspired Bill Gates. Bill Gates has surpassed Turner in consciousness after several later large donations, and he has become somewhat aware that his decisions about how to spend his money will change the world to some extent. Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, showed the world his philanthropic act, in a way. It is to set an example to the capitalists of the world on how to exercise social power.

Bill Gates left himself and his family about one-ten-thousandth of his total wealth. This move seems to send a message to the whole world: Bill Gates is not making money for himself, nor for future generations. Bill Gates has used his personal wealth in the fight against HIV/AIDS, education and other fields, and has also shown society that he wants to help certain vulnerable special people. This move dilutes the long-standing stereotype that the plutocrats are "unkind to the rich". Bill Gates's move at least created a sense of trust in the public that it was safe to hand over the money to Bill Gates. Thereupon. Bill Gates is getting more and more money. Bill Gates is undoubtedly the first capitalist to gain such public trust in the hundreds of years since the capitalist system was formed.

From 2004 to 2007. Bill Gates has been named one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World" for 4 consecutive years. The reason why he was able to have such a title was entirely because of the power of money he possessed. Although Bill Gates's software has played a big role in changing the world. However, Microsoft's software is for Bill Gates. It's more about the means of getting money. It was only when he became a philanthropist that he began to decide how to pay his huge sum of money that he became truly the "most influential" person in the world. Bill Gates is playing the role that government should play, relying on the power of money.

There is also a historical background to Bill Gates's large charitable donations. The U.S. government has spent more than $500 billion on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. For Bill Gates, if the U.S. government can be trusted, it is not impossible to hand over the money to the U.S. government in the form of taxes. However, Bill Gates is clearly not too happy with the U.S. government's war spending. If he gives the money he earns to the U.S. government, he has to accept that the U.S. government spends it where he doesn't want to see it. It just so happens that the policy of the United States provides him with the possibility that the money can be left in his own hands without being handed over to the US government, but that this huge amount of money will no longer be spent on himself, but on what social areas he should spend it on. The fact that Bill Gates, the world's largest philanthropist, appeared in the United States, not in Europe, should be the result of the difference between the policies and laws of the United States and Europe.

Bill Gates' philanthropy is actually exercising social power with a lot of money in the name of charity. As a result, his actions have gone beyond the debate of charity or hypocrisy. People should evaluate him in terms of what he spends money for, or in other words, Bill Gates's act of donation, which should be evaluated in terms of formal social rights, and the result will be greater than the act itself. However, all other social rights can be supervised, and the social rights that appear in the name of charity are basically unsupervised, therefore. We don't know exactly what Bill Gates did with the money he donated. On the bright side. Bill Gates' behavior embodies a profound law of capital: the use of capital will bring more wealth only if it is beneficial to society. Look on the bad side. We don't really know who is benefiting Bill Gates with the money he spends.

But getting in touch with money and power too early is not a good thing for children. However, this is also a very difficult thing, after all, the traditional culture of China exists here.

There is a principle in modern chaos theory called the "butterfly effect". It is believed that the later development of a natural system is highly dependent on the input of the initial conditions. Small changes in initial conditions can lead to large changes in system output. The embryonic period and gestation period of Chinese culture was the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was an era when a hundred schools of thought contended and a hundred flowers bloomed. The feudal system of the Zhou Dynasty divided the land of China in the east of the world into many vassal states of different sizes. These vassal states resembled the city-states of the Hellenistic period in the West. They have extensive contacts, frequent exchanges and a relaxed environment. As a result, industry, commerce and technology have made great progress. In that free and relaxed space, various schools of thought. It has been developed like never before. Confucius, Mencius, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Mozi, Sun Tzu, Han Feizi, and the stars are splendid. Confucianism, Taoism, Mo, Ming, Bing, Law, Yin and Yang, each has its own system. Among them, Confucianism, Taoism, and Mohist thought. Each has formed its own philosophical system. It shines with a view of the world, an epistemology and a philosophy of life. To this day, you can still feel the tremendous strength of the personality and the humanistic spirit.

However, in the center of the Eastern Plate of the world. It is not the thinkers who make the butterfly of history flap its wings. It is some people with bad personal qualities and a strong desire for fame and power. First of all, the Legalist figure Shang Ying found the state of Qin in the border area as a testing ground for his experimental political doctrine. And Qin Xiaogong, who was full of "domineering" desires, and wanted to implement the specialized. The system is based on profit-making business, and the smell is similar, and it hits it off. Began his transformation. Shang Ying implemented strict internal punishment laws in the Qin State, and was highly accumulated. The policy of alienation from the outside world and the redemption of military force by the army is a policy of cultivation and warfare. Sure enough, the results were obvious. The state of Qin soon became strong. But. Because the system he implemented was too harmful to nature and reason, it was too harmful to heaven and peace. Shang Ying was finally split by five horses as the first person in the history of China to commit suicide. As the initiator of the institutionalized and harsh punishment of state terrorism in the history of China, his tragic death was more than innocent. Later, most of the Legalist figures and cool officials in history ended up similar to him. This is somewhat symbolic of cautionary significance. But the totalitarian system of China. has always made such cool officials emerge in an endless stream in all dynasties.

The culmination of Legalist theory is Han Feizi. One of the main characteristics of Han Fei's theoretical system is that it openly advocates evil and power. The main characteristic of the Legalist character is to achieve the goal. You can do whatever it takes, and you can do without moral constraints. It is fully embodied in his theory. Legalist figures can pursue their political ideals without regard for the suffering and calamities of the lower classes. This is in line with Confucius's idea of "harsh government is fiercer than a tiger". The style of "stealing the spring without drinking". and Mencius's idea of "the people are noble and the king is light". A huge moral contrast is formed.

Han Fei summed up politics into three aspects: "law, art, and potential". The "law" is the strict punishment law implemented by Shang Ying. "Technique" refers to the power technique advocated by Shen Bu Harm. He advocated that the monarch should be autocratic, be good at using power to control his subordinates, and hide his will, emotion, and psychology deep in his heart. so that his subordinates cannot be spied on, and they are regarded as mysterious. Only then can there be a spiritual deterrent. It is also the so-called "unpredictable". And "power" is the power advocated by the Legalist heavy-handed figures. He believes that "virtuous is not enough to be unworthy, but powerful enough to be virtuous". When the monarch has absolute power, he can govern the country well. The above theories of the three representative figures of the Legalist school of emphasizing law, emphasizing art, and emphasizing power. It has been synthesized, summarized and carried forward in Han Fei's thoughts.

Han Fei famously has a view of "sage obsessive". "Want" is the pivot and the key, that is, the supreme power of the state. And "things are in the four directions, they must be in the center, the saints insist on it, and the four sides will follow." As long as the monarch is in charge of the supreme power of the country and governs by "upholding the law", the people of the world will not dare to disobey and serve

And he said: "The law of forbidding adultery is too high to prohibit his heart, then to prohibit his words, and then to prohibit his affairs." In order to consolidate the rule of the monarch, it is necessary to prohibit the people's actions, words, and hearts. Harshness reigns over behavior, speech, heart, and subconscious. It is really the most precocious and strict totalitarian rule in the world!

As for the arguments such as "Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban". Abound is embodied in factors that may be detrimental to the monarch for the subjects, taking into account the degree of penetration. As a result, the vitality of society is imprisoned to an extreme degree!

So "although the master of the man is not good." The ministers dare not invade it." This kind of system design prepared the way for the imperial power of the eternal lineage. among the children and grandchildren to come. Even if there is an unscrupulous human master, his subordinates will not dare to violate him.

Han Fei's method of thinking -- "the powerful one." "Winning the capital of the crowd", "Competing for strength today", "Treating each other with a calculating heart". It is impossible to express interpersonal relationships as a complete struggle of interests and cruel indifference. Set the interests of the monarch in opposition to his subjects. and to strengthen the position of the monarch by honoring the monarch and strengthening the power of the monarch.

The main thrust of Legalist theory is to convince people with force. With repression as the main means. Advocating power politics. Institutionally, it is designed as a centralized system in which the monarch has sole control over power. to strengthen the monarchy. system as the core. This ideological system is the earliest, most complete, and most rigorous system in the world. The doctrine of systemalist political theory. The fact that China has produced such a precocious political theory is the helplessness and sorrow of the Chinese nation.

The core of Legalist political thought is to strengthen control and totalitarianism. For more than 2,000 years since the Qin Dynasty, this kind of political thinking has not changed much in the consciousness of the supreme ruler. However, this kind of political thinking is completely incompatible with the concept of limitation and separation of powers in modern democratic constitutional government.

However, this whole set of theories has just scratched the itch of winning politics. After reading Han Fei's article, he said: "The widow has to see this person swimming with him, and he will not hate him when he dies." It can be seen how the tyrant and the Legalist character are so spiritual and smelly of each other! Of course. This did not prevent him from easily executing Han Fei after listening to the slander. In fact, deep down, the tyrant also despises and distrusts these political animals of bad quality. This is the relationship between tyrants and cool officials in history, which is not easy to braid through the ages. It is a very ironic historical law after the historical trajectory of China has shifted under the influence of Legalist figures.

The system of dividing feudal vassals of the Zhou Dynasty was actually quite reasonable under the historical conditions at that time. Contradictions and conflicts between vassal states. It can be resolved through the coordination of the Zhou royal family, and through the alliance of the princes. Wars between vassal states from time to time. Most of them do not aim to exterminate each other's countries and clans. At most, it is only a change of its monarch to obtain a certain degree of limited benefits. Such a pattern greatly inhibited the monopoly of the princes of various countries. Desire control. But this rule of the game was broken by the Qin State, an ethnic minority located on the border.

Large-scale conquest and killing. It was precisely from the beginning of the influence of Legalist figures on the politics of the Qin State. From Qin Xiaogong to Qin Shi Huang in the thirteenth year of the unification of China. During this period, the Qin State beheaded hundreds of thousands of countries, which was a terrible killing in the population base at that time! Bai Qi once pitted Zhao and died 400,000 in Changping. A precedent was set for extra-massive massacres. Since Qin. Large-scale, extraordinarily large-scale massacres have occurred in the history of China. It was the Qin State that opened an extremely bad historical head! The six countries of Shandong called Qin the country of tigers and wolves, which is in line with the name. Since then. Many of the new rulers who worked their way up from the bottom chose this historical experience to build their authority through mass slaughter. This has become the mindset of many Chinese rulers.

Li Si, a Legalist figure, assisted Qin Shi Huang to unify China. The land established a large, unified, highly centralized imperial state. Since then, this unified model has become the unchanging unified model of China. Qin Shi Huang's name of "Emperor of the Ages" also comes from this. The history of the world corresponds to the slave democratic polisis of Greece in Europe, and the Roman republic at the latter point. and the country, did not produce such a result. This was the beginning of the biggest difference in the history of China and the West. As the center of oriental civilization, Huaguo. Under the influence of a few Legalist figures who became famous and wealthy, it so easily changed the course of the history of the world's eastern plate. The butterfly of history flapped its wings here and now. This has also changed the fate of the Chinese nation. This kind of historical deviation is a blessing or a curse, but in fact, history has constantly answered. It's just that we've never done a serious clean-up and reflection.

The establishment of the Qin Dynasty was the help of Legalist figures to establish a political system of "winner takes all". This winner can bring together future generations for generations. Regardless of whether the children and grandchildren have the ability to continue to "win", their status has doomed them to always win. Unless one day everything is torn down and a new power game is played.

"The winner of the government, the winner of the politics of the winner", this is really a huge historical black humor! It took more than 2,000 years for the Chinese nation to understand it. In the face of such historical black humor, it is really necessary for all people of insight who are interested in building democratic politics in China to carry out systematic historical interpretation and criticism.

Although in the history of our country, there have been doubts about this system. For example, Huang Zongxi once said: "For the great harm of the world, the king is just the king"; Tang Zhen said: "Since the Qin Dynasty, all those who are emperors are thieves"; Wang Fuzhi pointed out that the imperial power is "a private person in the world"; Tan Sitong said: "The government of the past 2,000 years and the government of Qin are all big thieves." But these flashes of thought are only a few flashes of thought, a flash of fragments. It has not reached a broad consensus in the ideology of the Chinese people, nor has it fundamentally touched the stubborn culture of power. As a result, there has been no major social impact. You see, history has entered the 21st century. And the clamor of "persuading the monarch to scold Qin Shi Huang less" and "persuading the monarch to stab Qin Shi Huang less" has become very loud in the mainland? This momentum seems to be the "politics of Qin for a hundred generations" to be practiced for thousands of generations!

Qin Shi Huang and Legalist figures jointly created a highly centralized unified dictatorship. Form of government. It comprehensively ended the relaxed, free, and diverse ideological and cultural development environment of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States Period. Since then, the scene of "a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending" has never appeared again. Although the Qin Dynasty soon collapsed because of its tyrannical rule.

However, later rulers could no longer resist the temptation of this one-size-fits-all, highly centralized system of government, and all of them retained this imperial system. Instead, it is only to make some limited revisions and additions in terms of the Taoist system and the legal system. After the establishment of this imperial power system, the culture of power has been comprehensively and systematically developed in China

To say that the Qin Dynasty unified the Chinese Kingdom is a historical concept that has been stolen. In fact, the Zhou Dynasty could have been said to be a relatively loose unified country. There is a trend of convergence in many aspects such as language, writing, weights and measures. It preserves the free space for the development of cultural diversity, as well as an environment for national integration and extensive exchange.

Reunification should not be the most important indicator of the development of human society, still less should it be the goal of "only the greatest" pursued by the nation-state. The Chinese nation's overly persistent pursuit of "reunification" is the result of the totalitarian mentality of great unification. The Qin Dynasty's unification model of extreme control completely stifled the vitality of the Chinese nation's development. Taking the unification model of the Qin Dynasty as the only unification model is a deliberate misleading attempt to steal the concept. Touting Qin Shi Huang as the "Emperor of the Ages" completely ignores the endless disasters and destruction of lives that he brought to millions of people. Completely ignoring his ruthless strangulation of the historical vitality of the Chinese nation. It is a completely heartless, openly advocating an evil view of history!

The diversity of organisms, the diversity of living environments and living conditions, is an important law that constitutes the colorful natural ecosystem on the earth. This is a law arranged by the "Creator" and should not be broken. The diversity of culture, the diversity of the human social environment, is the law that the human social and ecological system should follow. It is an attempt to use coercive state power to promote a simple model of social life on a large scale to regulate the social and economic life of a country. The unification model of the Qin Dynasty was the first time that such an attempt was implemented in China. Thus fundamentally strangling China. The vitality of the cultural diversity of the land. The more extreme the rulers of the Chinese history carried out such attempts, the greater the damage caused to the country and the nation.

In short, the rulers of the Chinese dynasties all tried to establish a society of "Taoism and law, and unified under the same system" on the basis of imperial rule. And this effort has been achieved to a certain extent. (To be continued......)
