Chapter 220: Liberation War (5)

He Zudao is very familiar with most of the high-level political commissars, and his job is to engage in political propaganda and ideological work. Asking the political commissar to sit down on the brown cushion fabric sofa in the office, He Zudao began to listen to the complaints of the political commissar of the Yangtze River fleet. After listening, He Zudao suggested: "I suggest you go to the new psychological counseling department and talk to them." ”

The political commissar became excited as if he had been burned with coals, "What? The department that catches criminals and madmen? ”

The People's Internal Affairs Committee was the first unit of the People's Party to create a psychology department, followed by the behavioral psychology department of the public security system, and the coverage of this department and disciplines soon exceeded the scope of these two powerful departments, followed by the Discipline Supervision Commission and many departments related to social behavior, but the comrades of the People's Party had a very poor impression of these two departments. The original purpose of these two departments was to find all kinds of counter-revolutionaries and psychological maladaptations. In the eyes of comrades, it is to catch criminals and madmen.

"Look, look, you're not going to be realistic right away." He Zudao said with a smile: "Our core concept is to seek truth from facts, but it has been proved that we need a suitable method to be realistic. This approach is different for everyone. Everyone has their own characteristics, so the organization formed this department and created this discipline. ”

The political commissar knew that He Zudao was right, but he couldn't overcome his disgust with the psychological counseling department. Don't overdo it, the political commissar simply looked at He Zudao's office. The office couldn't be simpler, except for the new fabric sofa, all the tables, chairs and furniture in the room are used for a while, and the cleanliness of this office is like the level of a general political commissar. The only thing that can be called an ornament is the words "seek truth from facts" hanging on the wall.

There was really nothing in the room that could stimulate or comfort the political commissar, and the political commissar could only withdraw his gaze, "Political Commissar He, I think you must be better than that department." ”

He Zudao replied unhurriedly: "You haven't investigated, how do you know." ”

The political commissar hurriedly said: "Every time I listen to you, I always feel that my heart is bright. Of course, it's because you're better than those people. ”

He Zudao shook his head slightly, "That's because of my logic you heard, everything I said was based on my own personal logic to explain and seek truth from facts." If there's anything I say that resonates with everyone, it's simply because I may point out the truth of the story. But the way I see the truth is only my own way, what's the use of just seeing the result? To embark on that path, you must find your own path. How to find this path, I think that the comrades in the psychological counseling department are more proficient and professional than me. ”

Speaking of this, He Zudao couldn't help laughing, "But let me make it clear first, once psychoanalysis simply analyzes psychology, it is the religion of God and Han." Our psychological department only solves one problem, how to enable comrades to treat the world and themselves realistically. It's not any inner repentance at all, playing that kind of sighing literati thing. ”

Hearing this, the political commissar was a little tempted, but this motivation was only a matter of moments, and the political commissar quickly abandoned this idea. Chen Ke has never engaged in any psychological counseling, and He Zudao has never engaged in any psychological counseling, so why should the political commissar engage in psychological counseling?

"Political Commissar He, it's better for you to talk to me." The commissar said.

"It's fine." He Zudao replied that directively forcing the political commissar to receive psychological counseling would only have side effects, and it was unlikely that having a hostile mentality would have a good psychological effect, and he asked, "How do you feel after saving that child?" ”

"Feelings?" The commissar was a little surprised by this question, and hesitated for a moment before the commissar replied, "I don't really care about that child's business. I just feel that I should do everything I can to do more things that will help the revolution. ”

He Zudao continued to ask: "Then what do you think after hearing that this child has died?" ”

"I'm disappointed, I feel disappointed." The political commissar's tone became a little excited, "I failed in this matter, and Commander Zhu Ting had already predicted this outcome at that time. Even though I knew it was a possibility, I still believed it wouldn't happen. There was no problem with so many appendiceal removal surgeries in the base area, but I actually didn't think that could happen. ”

The political commissar's original voice was quite low, but when he said it, his emotions were completely excited.

He Zudao listened quietly, watching the political commissar's emotions become more and more excited, but he didn't say a word. After discussions, the comrades felt that it was very effective to interrupt others' words and point out the wrong logic in their words. The command system, like that of the army, can have some effect in a short period of time. However, if you want to really make people feel something, you must first let the other party continue the topic according to their own logic, and finally let him summarize his own logic. Anyone who can't seek truth from facts will find that his logic is in conflict with the facts.

He Zudao listened quietly, and sure enough, the political commissar slowly revealed this trend. After some confiding, the contradictions in the political commissar's heart gathered on two main points, the attempt to save the child failed, and this failure could have been avoided. Since there has been a failure, there must be someone responsible, and the political commissar cannot determine the person responsible in his heart. He Zudao is not sure for the time being, who the political commissar thinks should bear the greater responsibility between himself and the fleet commander Zhu Yao.

When the political commissar said that he couldn't go on, He Zudao said: "Do you think this child's mother is doing something wrong?" ”

The political commissar first nodded reflexively, then frowned and shook his head, "Political commissar He, I originally thought that there was something wrong with the child's mother, if she had followed the doctor's instructions, the child would probably not have died." But now I think that even if the child's mother listened to the doctor's advice, the child could have died after surgery. I think there are things that are indescribable, but I think Commander Zhu Yao's attitude towards the masses is too cold, and it is not at all the feelings that a member of the People's Party should have. ”

"Then what do you think Commander Zhu Yao is wrong?" He Zudao continued to lead the topic down.

The political commissar's voice was raised a lot, "Commander Zhu Yao thinks that either the process of things will be completed, or it will be counted as a step wherever it goes." He only saw what to do, and didn't care what the outcome would be. ”

In response to such a severe accusation, He Zudao remained silent. It is normal to encounter such doubts and confusion in political work, and in fact, most political disputes revolve around such issues.

After the political commissar criticized Zhu Yao in a high-profile manner, the tone was lowered a little, "But facts have proved that Commander Zhu Yao's judgment on the future is correct, unless I disobey the order of the Military Commission, things can only develop like this." Even if I say anything, the current fact is that Commander Zhu Yao is not wrong. So I can't figure it out. ”

He Zudao continued to listen quietly, he should have remained silent until this time, but He Zudao couldn't help but think about whether the psychological counseling system should be enforced. The political commissar said that it had taken more than half an hour at this time, and He Zudao originally thought that the reception time would be half an hour at most. Professional counselors, on the other hand, have plenty of time to address these issues.

But since it started, He Zudao had to solve the problem as much as possible. So he continued to be silent.

The political commissar's train of thought could no longer continue, he had actually discovered the problem himself, and he believed that everyone had a responsibility to bear, but he did not dare to blame the people, nor did he dare to blame the military commission, let alone the system of prioritizing the completion of military tasks. But the child is innocent, and the disappearance of such a life should not be. And the political commissar at least does not want to blame the disease, and when the people cannot find the person responsible, they often put the blame on the germ that has no thinking ability. After all, the political commissar has studied medicine, and if he does this, what is the difference between it and the feudal superstition that believes in the supernatural power of the "plague god"?

All kinds of ideas were mixed up, and the commissar felt that he had figured out the main point a little, but then fell into more confusion. If it is simple to admit that Zhu Yao's ruthless approach is right, it can be regarded as a solution, but the political commissar does not want to admit this kind of thinking the most, if he has no sense of human life, and only understands the world from a so-called "scientific" perspective, the political commissar will never admit that it is revolution.

Seeing that the political commissar's thinking of this round was finally over, He Zudao asked: "Do you think the death of the child is wrong?" ”

"Yes." The commissar replied very simply.

"Then I would like you to do the following to reformulate this plan of action with what you think is the right idea. Is that possible? He Zudao said.

"Okay." The commissar replied.

He Zudao nodded, "And this discussion will also become a typical case for us, and we will have a comprehensive discussion in the training of the Political Department in the future." Therefore, you have to cooperate with the psychological counseling department to conduct psychological analysis. ”

The commissar was stunned, "This ......"

"It's an order." He Zudao did not give the political commissar a chance to argue, the execution of the orders of the Political Department was no weaker than that of the military department, and the orders of the superiors to the subordinates were more coercive.

sent away the political commissar of the Yangtze River Fleet, and He Zudao also felt very helpless. Insisting on a realistic attitude will bring great pain to people, and if you can really achieve the realm of seeking truth from facts, then it is probably the realm of God. In fact, the official name of the psychology department established by the People's Party is already the "Research Center for Human Behavior", and the research direction is "seeking truth from facts", so most of the first batch of research results are "anti-common sense".

One of the most poignant examples is the characterization of the human mind, the latest hypothesis of human cognition as a process in which "the mind combines fragments of observation into coherence with imagination." Even this hypothesis is problematic and inherently "incomplete". However, the core of this is that it is impossible for human observation and analysis to have a comprehensive determination of every movement link, so the basis of all understanding is all kinds of fragments and fragments, even with the help of various instruments and devices, it is only possible to get infinitely close to the facts, but it is impossible to depict accurate facts.

This perception alone caused a huge stir in the discussion, and everyone believed that what they saw was the truth. But this theory, based on the materialistic factual basis, proves that it is now impossible for human beings to see the truth. This shakes common sense in the first place.

Fortunately, the People's Party's ideas are Marxism and materialism, and the relative truth and absolute truth have long been repeatedly emphasized in political classes, so there has been no confusion in thinking. However, how to guide everyone's actions based on such a scientific attitude makes the heads of comrades who study theories explode.

What's more, the "neurotics" in the human behavior research department also coldly raised another very real problem: "Even if you are willing to accept a realistic attitude, you will still encounter so many problems." So how do we convince those who choose not to accept truth because they feel pain to face the truth? ”

Although Zhou Shuren did not participate in this behavioral discussion, he wrote an article as if he had telepathy, and the article mentioned in the form of a dialogue:

"If an iron house is windowless and indestructible, and there are many sleeping people in it, who will soon suffocate to death, but go from slumber to death, and do not feel the sorrow of death. Do you think you are worthy of the cry of the more sober men, and the irremediable suffering of this unfortunate few? ”

"But since a few people have risen, you can't say that there is no hope of destroying this iron house."

Yes, though I have my own convictions, but when it comes to hope, it cannot be erased, for hope is in the future, and it must not be convinced by the proof that I am not available.

Because of this article, coupled with Zhou Shuren's own medical background, the Human Behavior Research Center simply officially sent an invitation letter to Zhou Shuren, wanting to hire him as a researcher.

Not to mention the issue of the "Center for Human Behavior Research" recruiting troops, a deeper discussion on the "mass line" gradually emerged. Originally, many people thought that "people are inherently different" based on experience, but now there is gradually more material research basis. In view of the tolerant atmosphere and system of science within the People's Party, some comrades simply raised the issue of "the initiative of self-transformation."

The members of the People's Party have all been tested, or they are gathered by like, and these people all have a considerable degree of initiative, and it is obviously unscientific to simply equate the initiative of these people with the fact that all people have such strong initiative.

If we make a rather narrow inference, there is a "paradox", and the process of seeking truth from facts brings about "a great increase in the success rate based on the pursuit of different interests", so does seeking truth from facts itself become a kind of success science? Isn't this the cause of the consequences?

In the same way, if we discuss the essence of the world, the theory and practice of social transformation are combined, and there is another problem: how to promote human beings to "move forward"? If someone feels comfortable with the situation they are in, then how to deal with them.

Most crucially, there is a proposal for a clear definition of the "ruling class" and "rulers" "on a scientific basis". This undoubtedly opens a door that is extremely troublesome.

Compared with the confusion caused by these people's theoretical frenzy, the troubles of the political commissar of the Yangtze River Fleet were nothing at all. As the general political commissar, He Zudao himself cannot even simply push these ideological studies to the comrades in the party, after all, at the practical level of ideological work, the political commissars have an unshirkable responsibility.

Many comrades with strong revolutionary ideals believe that the revolution aims to build a world of equality. Therefore, if the theoretical department comes up with a theoretical basis that "all people are born completely unequal", the consequences will be completely subverted.
