Chapter 19: Su Qi's Thought (Seeking Acceptance and Pushing!) )
(There is a lot of "nonsense" in this chapter, and if you don't like it, you can skip this chapter.) )
In order to build up a force, it is necessary to first have its ideology and purpose, and in particular, to take the line at the bottom and mobilize the strength of the broad masses, and still more to be guided by correct ideology, in order to concentrate forces.
Su Qi was thinking about what kind of idea to build.
Historical experience tells us that without a precise guiding ideology, a group of peasant uprisings will eventually end in tragedy, and will only leave this sentence in history: "The peasant uprising led by so-and-so dealt a heavy blow to so-and-so dynasty and accelerated the fall of so-and-so dynasty, which is of great historical significance."
Because before the uprising, they were exploited and oppressed to the limit, they had no food, no clothes, and no hope in life, so they knew that they should revolt, and if they did not revolt, they would starve to death, freeze to death, and be exploited to death, and they had to rise up and resist!
In the early days, the peasant uprisings even had a certain degree of advancement.
Because they were exploited and oppressed not long ago, and now they have not long turned over, and they still remember the bureaucrats who exploited them and the landlords who oppressed them...... The abominable and abominable face of these people.
But after an uprising, they tend to quickly corrupt and degenerate into the people they once hated.
It's like in a village, there is an evil dragon riding on top of people's heads, wantonly plundering and oppressing people, making people miserable.
When they couldn't live anymore and couldn't bear the oppression of the evil dragon, a group of people in the village who were oppressed by the evil dragon finally stood up and went to slay the dragon together.
But after slaying the dragon, these people drank the dragon's treasured wine, shared the dragon's plundered wealth, and ate delicious dragon meat in the dragon's den, but they didn't know that before they knew it, they themselves had grown dragon teeth and dragon tails, and became the evil dragons they once were.
The reason why it has become like this is: first, because of people's desires.
People have desires, and without desires, it is impossible for the world to progress!
These dragon slayers, after slaying the "dragon" turned over, saw the wealth possessed by the "dragon", and aroused their inner desires.
The "dragon" used to oppress them as a prestige, and without having to work for themselves, they could get something for nothing, drinking wine in the dragon's lair, eating the delicacies offered by the people, and enjoying the virgins offered by the villagers.
Although the "dragon" is dead, when it is alive, it is really comfortable!
Thinking of the scenery when the "dragon" was alive, the dragon slaying warriors will naturally think at this time: since the "dragon" can do it, why can't we do it?
They may even come up with a reason to make the idea seem plausible.
This "dragon" was slaughtered by us, we are the savior of the village, the savior of the villagers, without us, they are still oppressed and exploited by the "dragon", we should enjoy it!
Second, because there is no correct ideological guidance, the dragon slayers do not know what to do after slaying the dragon, but to go home and continue to be a farmer facing the loess with his back to the sky and digging in the soil? Or will they become the new "dragons", oppress and exploit other villagers, and get nothing for nothing?
As a result, they will think which option is more comfortable, it goes without saying!
Because there is no correct ideology to guide these dragon slayers, they can only look so far away, and they can only see the "dragon", the class they once needed to look up to.
In fact, it's not that the dragon slayers necessarily want to become "dragons", it's that they can't find it, and no one gives them a better and more advanced way to advance...... If you don't find other more advanced forms, becoming a "dragon" is of course the best choice.
The same is true of peasant uprisings.
First, some of the rebellious peasants, having enjoyed the luxurious life of bureaucratic landlords, could never go back; Second, without correct ideological guidance, the peasants who revolted did not know what to do next, and under the limitations of their vision and the times, they could only follow and incarnate into the people who once oppressed and exploited them.
Therefore, if Su Qi wants to use the power of the people to transform this world and this era, he must have his own line, his own ism, and his own guiding ideology.
Without a guiding ideology, how can we prove that our team is superior to others, not comparable to those bewitching scumbags?
Without a guiding ideology, how can you make others understand what you are trying to get?
Without a guiding ideology, how can like-minded comrades be formed?
If you don't want to go back to the old path of those peasant uprisings in history, Su Qi must come up with a Su Qi doctrine and Su Qi thought!
Ideology must be in line with reality, which is not only material reality, but also refers to people's psychological reality.
After all, ideas and doctrines are for people, and most people are people with desires, independent consciousness, and rich feelings, and they are not saints who can sacrifice everything for the sake of "the world and the public".
A person's thinking and morality can reach a very high level, but if it is really flawless and completely holy, Su Qi feels that there is no such person in this world.
If there is, then this product is definitely not a "person"!
Su Qi referred to the "Man-Ism" of the original world, the ideas of the ancient Lao Tzu, Confucius, Mencius, and ......some Western philosophers, and spent a lot of time pondering, and finally came up with his set.
The whole doctrine was made by Su Qi in order to transform this world and this era, but the most fundamental reason for it was Su Qi's own ideas (this is the point)!
Based on these, Su Qi did not hype up "liberating all mankind" and "building a Datong world" or anything in it, these should be mentioned, but not the main thing.
The main content can be roughly summarized in eight words, "people-oriented, explore the world", and the meaning is also as literal as the meaning, simple and easy to understand.
"People-oriented" and "exploring the world" are linked, and the purpose of "exploring the world" is to improve people's lives, and after people have lived well, they can better "explore the world".
China is a country with a long history and culture, and the history of bureaucracy naturally goes back to ancient times. No matter in which era, the official is always superior to other industries, Shinong industry and commerce, "Shi" has always been in the first place.
As a result, a very serious "official-oriented" ideology was born, and the consequences were extremely bad and far-reaching.
In the original world, Su Qi had seen too many people who were affected by this kind of thinking.
In addition, in the era of money and materialism in the original world, the status of celebrities has been greatly improved, to an incredible, even exaggerated level.
Of course, the rise in star status is due to a number of reasons.
There are two key points:
The first and most important factor is that people's living standards have improved and they have the ability to start chasing entertainment enjoyment.
The second point is the overwhelming publicity of the media, either the star cheated yesterday, or the one who went to do his hair again today.
There's nothing wrong with improving star status, but it's not good if it's too much!
In order to prevent the above two situations from happening, Su Qi's ideology raised "exploring the world" to a very high level, that is, to improve the status of scholars and scientists in disguise.
Fortunately, this is also an era when there are few readers, knowledge is still respected, and readers are still respected.
Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it is stepping forward from the beginning!
