Since the birth of human beings, ethnic groups have been looking for favorable conditions for themselves to be protected and developed in order to survive and reproduce themselves. It is necessary to take into account the interests of things, and to find favorable conditions suitable for oneself from them, to protect and develop oneself.

The question of what is the relationship between people seems simple, but it is also very complex. Some people may say that people are interdependent or unrelated, and some people may even say that they are on guard against each other. Of course, there is truth to all these claims. Of course, there is truth to all these claims. However, the most worthwhile argument to adopt should be: the relationship between people is a relationship of interests.

Benefits, literally, are advantageous and beneficial. From the point of view of the stage of social development in which mankind is now, in a narrow sense, the most important interest is economic relations; Broadly speaking, it includes money relations, family relationships, friendships, rights, prestige, reputation, personal enjoyment, and so on.

Since the birth of human beings, ethnic groups have been looking for favorable conditions for themselves to be protected and developed in order to survive and reproduce themselves. It is necessary to take into account the interests of things, and to find favorable conditions suitable for oneself from them, to protect and develop oneself. From this arises the viewpoint of profit and the primitive desire and impulse to seek profit.

In fact, not only human beings, but all living beings in nature are evolving according to the surrounding environment, choosing the direction that is conducive to their own survival and development. Such an act is the interest orientation of living beings. This viewpoint has been analyzed and tested by Darwin and put into the "Theory of Evolution", and this viewpoint should conform to the most basic laws of nature.

The relationship between friends is essentially a relationship of interest. There is no interest who is friends with you, and of course this interest is a combination of money, material and spiritual. As the saying goes, if you agree, you stay, and if you don't, you are divided, this is a friend. Money and material friends are the most direct, for example, if you encounter some financial difficulties today, you find a few friends to borrow money, and they are very happy to lend you money.

Do you know why it's refreshing? Because you have the ability to pay back, followed by those who are not financially constrained. They are for themselves to encounter a similar situation one day, and then reach out to you to borrow, which is called courtesy. If they don't lend it to you, it already means that they don't need a friend like you, because money and material things are things you can't give them. Spiritual friends say that they are confidants and heart-to-heart friends. In fact, they are just objects of mutual complaints. Some private secrets that cannot be disclosed to the world, and the heartache and pain in your heart are vented on you alone. You still think he trusts you, but at the same time you tell him your secrets.

Secondly, blood relationship is also a relationship of interest. There should be incomparable family affection between happy families, the love between mother and son and father and daughter, brother and sisterhood, looking at such a scene, teaching people to can't bear to associate all this with interests. As the saying goes, "blood is thicker than water", which is the ironclad evidence that describes all this family affection.

Think about why parents always hope that their children are better than others, their children will be scolded or even beaten if they don't study well, and they won't beat and scold other people's children for the same purpose, parents can pay so selflessly for their children, even their own interests can be ignored?

Because, if your children are better than others, you can have an advantage in the competition and bring indescribable benefits to your own family. If your children don't study well, they will have to sell coolies, and if they marry a wife, they will have to spend money on their parents, and even lose their pension money. Of course, other people's children will not bring any harm to themselves if they do not study, and they will naturally be able to deal with things of the same nature calmly outside of the interests of others.

Parents' selfless dedication to their children is always based on the concept of "children are always their own", as for what tangible benefits this concept can bring to themselves, we will not or cannot consider it so clearly, in short, the continuation and wonder of their lives are in the infinite imagination space brought by this successor!

Children's filial piety to their elderly parents is also based on the constraints and education of social interest norms. As the saying goes, "there is no filial son before the bed of a long illness", we can see the potential operation of this interest criterion. Children who honor their parents always remember their parents' previous efforts and past benefits, which is also a kind of self-motivation for children to drive their own filial piety.

Although it is also in the self-interest of children to be unfilial to their parents, the resulting reduction in social evaluation will lead to greater damage to the external interests of the perpetrators. For example, a normal company recruitment will definitely not recruit a person with a poor social rating. And it is difficult for such a person to be in a high position.

Therefore, you can also see "how ruthless and unrighteous parents or children do not care about their children or parents", such a special example is that parents and children completely feel that the other party and themselves will not have any interest or value. So you can be indifferent and let the other party live and die.

In real life, we can often see some philanthropists, who often take the initiative to help those in distress, help those who are in difficulty, help those out-of-school children return to school, give assistance to people in poor areas and disaster areas, or donate to social welfare undertakings. In the eyes of economists, this is a kind of rationality that is beyond rationality, and it is a very high level of rationality. Their efforts, which may not be rewarded by the recipients for the rest of their lives, have increased their prestige in the minds of the people, and this prestige is an intangible wealth, a wealth that is difficult to buy with money.

Therefore, we should remember that people are essentially a relationship of interest.
