Chapter 107: Reshaping the Three Views
Hearing the word naΓ―ve, Huang Kaijing thought that President Yang stood up as a sign of anger, but he didn't expect Yang Xiaoqian to stand up and take two steps closer and reach out to hand out a lighter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Snap"
A small flame burst out.
Huang Kaijing didn't like the taste of tobacco very much, but President Yang personally lit the fire for him, and there was no reason to refuse.
After lighting the cigarette on Huang Kaijing's lips, Yang Xiaoqian asked, "Do you remember the strategy we formulated in Yuanjiang?" β
Huang Kaijing took a sip of his lips on the cigarette filter, and the mellow bitter taste rushed into his lungs, which was not the same as the taste he had when he smoked before.
Maybe this is a special cigarette specially tailored for Chairman Yang's personal requirements, Huang Kaijing thought to himself, he nodded, and replied, "Yes, President, I remember." β
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, Huang Kaijing always felt that the smoke just now made him relax a lot, the surroundings became very quiet, very peaceful, the flashing red dots were no longer dazzling, and the memories seemed to be approaching telephoto lenses, occupying the sight.
"If it weren't for you and Commander Liu Yuanzhou and Liu Yuanzhou to suppress Yuanjiang with a strong hand at that time, and to use various means to propagate and guide the wind direction of the values of the Yuanjiang people, I probably wouldn't have mustered up the courage to sign up for the fighting establishment of the Yuanjiang Salvation Association...... In that case, I should not have awakened now, I would still be an ordinary person, and I might have been a dead person. β
As he spoke, Huang Kaijing gradually let go of his emotions and was no longer restrained.
"Based on what you just said, our propaganda brainwashed you and instigated you to join the army, right?" Yang Xiaoqian asked, "Have you ever regretted it?" β
"Nope." Huang Kaijing didn't think about it, and then retorted, "But President, this is different." β
"Oh? What's the difference? β
"At that time, the dome trapped us and the zombies and mutants in the Yuanjiang, if everyone did not have the consciousness of going to the battlefield, in the end no one would escape death, if the wall of the new Yuanjiang was broken, if the coastal defense of Jiangxin Island was broken, everyone would ......" Speaking of this, Huang Kaijing suddenly stopped and lowered his head in contemplation.
"yes. For the people of Yuanjiang at that time, if they could not unite as one, it would be impossible to usher in victory in the battlefield of anti-corpses, and when the end of Yuanjiang came, there was no difference between soldiers and civilians in the face of the tide of corpses. In order to stop this from happening, we need to change the mindset of all people and make people understand that each of them is responsible for their own lives. Yang Xiaoqian sat back in his chair, looked at Huang Kaijing at eye level, and said slowly, "But, according to you, is there a difference between what we are doing now and what we will do in the future and what we have done in the past?" β
"The earth will usher in endless disasters, maybe we can carry it once, we can carry it twice, but no one can guarantee that we will survive the crisis safely every time, what if one day, the end really comes? The dome is a cage besieging Yuanjiang, so why isn't the earth a cage besieging all mankind? β
Huang Kaijing was silent.
Yang Xiaoqian continued: "Of course, I must admit that there is indeed a big difference between the two. The most striking difference is that we can no longer use the fear of aggravated punishment to change people's behaviour and perceptions. β
"When everybody is backing down, it's hard to muster up the courage to fight alone. But on the other hand, when everyone stands up, it takes more courage to retreat in silence. β
"At that time, the corpse tide was raging, and there was chaos, and it was too difficult to get everyone to dare to come forward. So I chose the other, faster way, so that everyone didn't dare not come forward. β
"But now this method can no longer be used, we can quickly reverse the concept and atmosphere of the Yuanjiang people, because we are dictatorial, we are tyrannical, we have strangled all opposition voices in the cradle, and the special situation of Yuanjiang gives us this condition. But no longer possible, we can only use a softer way, starting from the roots, little by little, to gradually improve the people's perception. β
"Education is the top priority for conceptual reform, but this education should not be confined to the school classroom, and idols can also be a good educator. In fact, it should be said that in the general environment of China, the impact of ideological education in the classroom on personality and the three views is negligible, which is a mistake of the old education system and a problem left over from history. We have to solve this problem, but starting with the ideological education class, the penetration of its influence is too slow and too small. β
"Finally, let's talk about where your resistance comes from." Yang Xiaoqian's index finger tapped on the cigarette case, and the monotonous sound seemed to be a magical melody, which made Huang Kaijing look in a trance.
"You think that the propaganda work we do is brainwashing people and restricting the freedom of thought of others, so you resist. I understand very well, we are the same kind of people, in fact, I have been angry before, and I have also despised the overwhelming positive energy propaganda in China, believing that the starting point of everything the government does is to fool the people, that is, to restrict the freedom of thought and speech. β
Speaking of this, Yang Xiaoqian showed a self-deprecating smile and continued: "But think about it on the other hand, how much of the so-called 'truth' we wanted to see back then, and the various rumors and revelations that were full of rumors on the Internet, were true? How many ignorant and ignorant teenagers, in the process of ardently pursuing freedom and democracy, have been toyed with and applauded by those with ulterior motives, and while becoming a tool for others to use, they have also created a dark three views for themselves? β
"Think about how many people think that it is right not to save when they die, even if they have the ability to help, they should stand by and watch so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Think about how many people have a word, thinking that as long as they have strength, they can kill this and that, and kill the whole family if they don't agree with each other. Think about killing people to smear the People's Defense Army, denying the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature, and preaching that human nature is only ugly with a rebellious mentality? β
"It's a disease! If there is a problem with education in a country, then the country is seriously ill. Look at our peers now, how many of them look at the world with a morbid and cynical eye under the influence of social climate and surrounding environment, with dark and distorted three views? β
"Do you think that they keep all the ideas they have now, that is, freedom of thought? No, I think they have been kidnapped by the preconceived ideas left over from the previous era, and we stand at the beginning of the new era, and we need to break this shackle and provide them with a new choice. β
"So I don't think that the propaganda work you are going to engage in is brainwashing, I think it is a very necessary and correct guidance, you must strive to break the dark ideological shackles in the hearts of the people, and shape a correct three views for this generation and for the next generation, and only people with correct three views and sound thinking can pursue freedom of thought. Otherwise, no matter how hard you shout, you are always just making playthings for those who have a heart. β
