Chapter 1689: The Last Lesson Before Counterattacking (4)
Mae Gang University, on the playground.
Jiang Yang looked at the student with interest, pretending not to see his nameplate: "What do you call it." ”
The student nodded politely: "Back to the principal, just call me Elon." ”
Jiang Yang nodded: "You shouldn't be a student who just graduated." ”
Elon said: "I'm an entrepreneur. ”
Jiang Yang asked, "Why did you sign up for Meigang University?" ”
Elon was silent.
Jiang Yang continued: "I have heard your story and learned about your company. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Bai once sent you an invitation to join the Blue Whale, and Sain's co-festival also threw an olive branch to you. ”
"You're a man of great ideas."
"Build rockets, I want to move humans to Mars."
Elon smiled shyly after hearing this: "I think it is a very romantic thing that a person can devote his whole life to the whims of his childhood. ”
"As for why I chose to join Meigang University, I think that when you put forward the concept of civilized man and barbarian just now, I was even more convinced that I chose to follow you on the right path."
"If civilized people have the resources, they will give the barbarians room to survive. But if the resources are in the hands of the barbarians, they will not give civilized people any room to live. ”
Elon touched his nose and said curiously: "It's no exaggeration to say that the concept you just said just now happens to be what I want to say." ”
Speaking of which, Elon continued: "I've listened to Sain's lessons, and I've learned about his Bugs. ”
"I don't agree with his argument that humans are divided into managers and managed."
"On the contrary."
Elon looked directly into Jiang Yang's eyes: "I agree with the civilized man and the barbarian. ”
"The architecture of this world is high and low, there is absolute control and being controlled."
"But I'd rather keep the world in the hands of civilization."
"For example......"
Elon thought for a moment and pointed to his chest: "Myself." ”
The students laughed.
Only Jiang Yang looked at Elon with interest, and said lightly: "One day in the future, maybe you are only one step away from success." ”
Elon looked at Jiang Yang and nodded, "Thank you for your recognition." ”
Then, he sat back.
Jiang Yang looked at Elon and nodded, "Let's continue." ”
A small episode passed quickly, and many people remembered this young man named Elon, who was even arrogant and somewhat crazy.
But the students seemed more interested in the gifts that the principal wanted to give them.
"Five, the truth of the media."
When these words were spoken, Jiang Yang was still staring at Elon's eyes, and the students' thoughts were pulled back again.
Jiang Yang continued: "Eight words, public opinion manipulation, and a clear purpose. ”
"The media is not used to present facts, but to express certain purposes. Driven by click-through rates and interests, a lot of information can be exaggerated, distorted, or even fabricated to suit the interests of specific groups. So you have to know that what you see is not necessarily the truth, and those truths that are carefully planned are just a means to make the majority of people fall into the whirlpool of public opinion, or even become a tool to be used, and to achieve a certain end. ”
"Six, the truth of poverty."
"In the era of information explosion, massive and shallow one-sided information has created more and more impoverished rabble."
Jiang Yang got up, his eyes gradually sharpened: "Many poor people hold their mobile phones every day, and they think they know and participate in the world's major events when they move their fingers. They are entangled in all kinds of distorted events and emotions, and lose the time and ability to think deeply and seek verification. ”
"This superficial way of capturing information can waste time that should be used to improve the quality of their lives."
"Strengthen the bad roots of blind followers and low mobility, so as to make people poorer and poorer."
Jiang Yang looked at everyone: "Seven, the truth of success." ”
"Have you ever thought that the place you think is the ultimate goal of this life may not be what you want to go at all? Blindly pursuing other people's statements will make you live confused and unhappy, only by forgetting the definition and expectations of the people around you, and pursuing your inner balance and satisfaction, is your success. ”
The playground was filled with the rustle of pens on paper, and all the students were looking down and taking notes.
Only Elon and Hu Tao looked up and listened quietly.
Instead of taking notes, the two chose to go through them in their ears and brains like a filter.
Compared to the other students, Elon and Hu Tao's brains seemed to spin faster.
This is not difficult to see from their slightly trembling pupils.
"VIII. The Truth of Freedom."
"The so-called freedom is not to stay away from the crowd, but to see the true self from the heart."
"Dare to be yourself and live the way you like is true freedom. At this point, you can ask yourself in your heart, are you really free? ”
Silence.
After a few seconds.
Jiang Yang continued to speak: "Nine, the truth of the world. ”
"You're the only one in the world."
"It's all from your creation and attraction. If you exist, the world exists, and when you are gone, the world disappears. ”
"So, you are the master of the world."
Jiang Yang slowly moved forward and stood on the edge of the podium: "If you change, the world will change." You don't change, and it's useless to ask anyone to change. ”
"Ten."
"The Truth of Time."
Jiang Yang's eyes became deeper and deeper, and his hair in the sun became even more silvery: "Time does not exist at all. ”
Here, Elon's pupils trembled slightly, and his eyes looked at Jiang Yang even hotter.
"It's just a concept created by humans to measure changes in everyday life and the universe. In the concept of the truly strong, time has only three scales. ”
"That's ......"
Jiang Yang said word by word: "Past, present, and future." ”
"The past and the future are uncontrollable, and the only thing you can control is the present. That's why the ancients often said, live in the moment. ”
"Because you can only reap the fruits in the future if you grasp the present moment and plant the seed in the present."
"In Buddhist culture, the bodhisattva is called the cause, and the ordinary man is the effect."
Jiang Yang took his hand: "Therefore, for the wise, time is just a cycle of constantly sowing good seeds and reaping good fruits, and nothing else matters......"
"The above ten points are the last gift I will give you when you leave the campus."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking up, the dazzling sunlight broke through the clouds and spilled onto the ground.
Offstage.
Elon looked at Jiang Yang and asked again.
"Mr. Jiang."
Elon got up again, looked at Jiang Yang and said, "The tenth article you just said mentions Buddhist culture, mentions Bodhisattvas as causes, and ordinary people as effects. ”
"Then I want to ask, do you believe in Buddhism?"
This question once again made Elon the focus of the students, and all eyes were focused on Jiang Yang.
Almost all students at Mae Hong Kong College know that the first requirement to join the festival is to have faith.
They all wanted to know what the so-called gods, Buddhas, angels, or demons would think of their headmaster.
Elon's question is poignant.
If Jiang Yang replied "yes", then their principal would be no different from those in the memorial service. If Jiang Yang answers "I don't believe it", then this is tantamount to him overturning what he said about Article 10, and even more so denying the gift he just gave to everyone.
At this point, the audience was silent.
"One day when I found out that the roof of the temple was loaded with a lightning rod."
Jiang Yang looked at Elon and said lightly: "I understand a truth." ”
"You can cross me in this world."
"It's just me."
