Chapter 388: Maslow Needs
After this lunch, Wang Guangming took his subordinates as drivers and sent Jiang Zhe and Leon to the 'Notre Dame Welfare Institute' on the outskirts of Suzhou City.
Before everyone arrived, it was already full of banners and curious onlookers.
Aunt Lauren was dressed in a white cotton jacket, with a sign on the side, and the uncle in the black cotton jacket with three-dimensional facial features was Ben, the two were about 50 years old, and they were surrounded by beautifully dressed children.
Soon after, the convoy of black military vehicles arrived, and before Jiang Zhe got out of the car, the "boom-" salute suddenly rang out.
The sound of these cannons immediately attracted nearby residents and aunts and uncles who joined in the fun.
"Good guy, Xiao Jiangzi wasn't the little friend who didn't like to talk before, but I didn't expect to become a general now!"
"I said that there were dragons and phoenixes among others, but you still don't believe it!"
"There was no orphanage to ask for him, all because of the skull on the back of his left hand and left wrist, but he didn't expect that he would always be the reincarnation of the second generation of Lord Death."
"It's still our common people's clumsiness, if I had known that he was the reincarnation of the god of death in another world, I would have served him more than my own son!"
"Alas, the opportunity to rise to prominence was picked up by Lauren."
“...”
The onlookers didn't actually love Dai Jiangzhe.
They were just jealous that Lauren, a foreigner, had picked up such a child for nothing!
The nearby chattering and hypocritical smiles felt dazzling in Jiang Zhe's eyes in the car.
Leon looked out into the square on either side, and there was everything from young to old, and everyone was applauding enthusiastically.
Leon couldn't help but quip: "Don't you like them?" ”
Jiang Zhe shook his head lightly, "Why should people who have nothing to do with me like it?" ”
Leon nodded silently, "You can imagine how many people regarded you as an anomaly at the time because of the black skull mark on your hand, and now that you are soaring, they are smiling and applauding you... People's hearts are naturally hypocritical, but you can't blame them, there are such people all over the world, and they include 70+ billion, and only a small number of tens of millions of people are equal, such as: your Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben. ”
As the words fell, Wang Guangming, who was the main driver, turned around and said a word, ready to get out of the car: "It's here, Mr. Jiang." ”
"You don't have to get out of the car to open the door for me, I'll do it myself." Jiang Zhe raised his hand to stop it, then opened the back seat by himself and walked down.
"Yes."
As soon as they got out of the car, Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben were the first to come over.
They didn't see anything outside and directly hugged Jiang Zhe into their arms.
Aunt Lauren asked kindly, "How are you doing, do you eat on time, do you often go out for walks and runs?" ”
Uncle Ben asked meaningfully: "Hasn't the state introduced you to a wife yet?" ”
As the words fell, the smile and embarrassment on Jiang Zhe's face suddenly came, thought about it, and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm fine, better than ever!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Lauren let go of the arm holding Jiang Zhe with a puzzled expression, and looked at Jiang Zhe curiously, from top to bottom, wearing a black cloak, black trousers and black leather boots, "Wait, dear, after your soul comes back, is it all like this?" ”
Hearing this, Uncle Ben was also stunned, "Yes, you never said more than 5 words in a sentence before, or 'Hmm.'" 'Huh?' ''Humph! ', 'Got it', 'Okay', 'Okay', now that the soul comes back, you've really changed! ”
Jiang Zhe was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Leon walked directly behind Lauren and Ben because of his open personality and no shelf, stretched out his arm from behind and put it on the body of the second elder, and explained with a smile: "Yes, you are right, Jiang Zhe was a walking dead in the past, and since the return of his soul, he has become a talking walking corpse." ”
As soon as this remark came out...
Lauren and Ben were stunned, and so were the children in the entire orphanage.
Seeing this, Leon noticed embarrassment, "Isn't it funny, then I'll leave... ”
Aunt Lauren was stunned for a while before she reacted, and said with a laugh: "Hahahaha, Leon, you guy is serious in the copy, but I didn't expect that in reality, there is no frame at all, even if he becomes a lieutenant general, the image of a typical beautiful NUS boy is worthy of my fellow countryman!" ”
Ben gave a serious thumbs up, "Leon, uncle gives you a thumbs up!" ”
Seeing this scene, Leon's embarrassed heart was relieved, and he smiled, "That's nature, we beautiful people have always been very confident!" ”
Jiang Zhe smiled the whole time.
In the next few minutes, Aunt Lauren forgot to invite Jiang Zhe back to the welfare home.
Until Wang Guangming and the guards moved the children's New Year's goods and gifts into the welfare home and were about to leave, the four of them stopped at the door and laughed and played.
Wang Guangming leaned in and said, "It's half past one, it's time to go, Mr. Jiang." ”
When Jiang Zhe heard this, he stopped Leon, Lauren, and Ben, who were chatting, "Aunt Lauren, Uncle Ben, come with me to the military region, there is a dinner and show over there." ”
Lauren looked at Jiang Zhe, shook his head with a smile, and rejected the proposal, "I'm already content to see you today, and we won't make trouble for you." ”
Although she is proud of Jiang Zhe, she does not like the military of all countries in the world.
She is deeply aware that the military of all countries in the world is theoretically the same.
As an internationalist, if you get close to every military, then the aura of [internationalism] will turn sour, which is due to nature and noble personality.
Ben also echoed the explanation: "Things before and after the year are very busy, and we have to do a lot of things ourselves!" ”
After getting the answer, Jiang Zhe nodded silently, indicating his understanding, and did not ask for any more.
Then he left the door of the welfare home with the warm smiles of the surrounding people and the children.
Even when the car drove hundreds of meters away, someone caught up and waved goodbye.
Jiang Zhe sat in the back seat of the co-pilot, and the expression on his face was a little strange.
Seeing this scene, Leon carefully observed Jiang Zhe for about 5 seconds, and then a regretful smile appeared on his face.
Vehicles, moving forward, from the suburbs to another ...
On the way, Leon couldn't bear the loneliness, so he took the lead in comforting people: "Jiang Zhe, I'm not very good at comforting people, but you should know that Lauren and Ben are both internationalists, and they never participate in the politics of various countries and attend various places. ”
Jiang Zhe replied expressionlessly: "I know. ”
Leon looked at Jiang Zhe, "Since you know, then why are you still sullen?" ”
Jiang Zhe said: "It's nothing. ”
But Leon suddenly said bluntly, "Suppose they are your biological parents, 1: they are proud of you, 2: they are proud of you, 3: they will be honored for you, 4: they will go to the army military district with you to participate in the show, they also like to stand in the spotlight and be watched by thousands of people, this is everyone's heart!" ”
"Think about it from your perspective - Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben, they have done all the first 3 for you, but the last 4 can't do it."
"According to the analysis of the Maslow effect - Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben have reached the highest [self-pursuit], and they have done it more than twenty years ago."
What Leon called Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is actually motivational rhetoric in psychology.
1: Physiological needs – underlying needs.
These are the most basic needs, including food, water, sleep, sexuality, and health, among others.
If these needs are not met, other, more advanced needs become irrelevant.
2: Security requirements - middle and lower level requirements.
Once the physiological needs are met, the next needs are security and stability.
This includes a sense of security and security in terms of body, career, property, and family.
3: Social belonging needs - middle-level needs.
This includes the need for love, friendship, family, and belonging. People want to be accepted, cared for, and understood, to connect and socialize with others.
4: Respect needs - middle and upper class needs.
It is a desire to be respected, recognized, and self-esteem enhanced.
It includes the development of gaining the respect of others and self-esteem.
5: Self-actualization needs - upper needs/top needs.
This is the highest level of need in Maslow's hierarchy theory, which indicates the individual's desire to realize his or her potential and pursue personal growth.
What Leon means is that Lauren and Ben have already broken away from Maslow's 4 needs and reached an astonishing 5th need.
"So, Jiang Zhe, they are completely neutral, let me tell you a piece of news that you don't know."
"Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben's biological son, currently in the beautiful middle school colonel: Harlan, who has the same name and different surname as NASA administrator. He is a top student in the military, a senior talent from the West Point Military Academy, and he is currently my subordinate, and his position is still specially promoted by me after I met the version of you that was different, and I have never told you. ”
"Did you know that when Harlan inadvertently solved the explosion of the century in the army of the beautiful country and finally saved more than 100 people, he invited Lauren and Ben when he was in the beautiful country's army."
"And guess what?"
Seeing this scene, Jiang Zhe looked curious, "Go back?" ”
Leon hurriedly shook his head, "Harlan and Ben didn't go back, they just called him and told him to work hard and catch up with you as soon as possible, even if they know that Harlan will not be able to catch up with you in his life." ”
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Zhe's expression was a little stunned, this was information he had never known.
"Through this, you should have discovered that Aunt Lauren and Ben are [absolutely neutral] in nature!"
"They are not Xia people, they are not beautiful people, they are not people who never set the sun, they are real children of the earth!"
"This is true even for biological sons, including adopted sons, do you understand?"
As Leon's series of comforts fell, Jiang Zhe's faint 'jealousy' humanity suddenly disappeared.
Jiang Zhe frowned, almost falling into self-doubt, "It seems that I still don't know Aunt Lauren and Uncle Ben well enough." ”
Leon reluctantly counted a sentence: "Who knows, people like them... No one can guess people like them, where there is difficulty, they will run to save the injured at the first scene, and now they are old and can't run, so they have settled down in Xia Guosu City. ”
"Me and you, so far, have not reached the [Self-Pursuit]!"
Jiang Zhe asked curiously: "Then what do you think we are pursuing?" ”
Leon frowned and thought for a while, and explained: "Most of the people in the world, 99% of them, are in the first layer of needs, and most of them stay in [sex] for a long time, until a lifetime, even if there are powerful and billionaires among those people, they are all in the first layer!" ”
"There are many poor people, but they will go straight to 1~4 and reach the amazing 5th level, not those who are high-eyed and low-handed, they will think that they are in the 5th layer, but in fact they are not. The people I speak of because they know what they were born for, what they have to do, what they want, they are outside the framework of the global world, they are not bound by man-made rules and regulations, even if the wind is dew... Like the grand thieves, and the angels in white who are far away in a foreign country to rescue and rescue people, etc.! ”
And our words seem to be on the need for respect, and once the need for respect disappears in an instant, our hearts will become angry as the need disappears. Yes, we are on the 4th floor, we can touch the 5th floor from time to time, but we can't stand on the 5th floor yet, even though we are all working for our respective countries. ”
Hearing this, the doubts on Jiang Zhe's face suddenly disappeared, in fact, he also knew these things, but he would still be confused and puzzled when he encountered these things himself.
Suddenly, he realized the fun of human nature, "This is human nature, and I like this feeling." ”
Leon smiled slightly, "Of course, the feeling of having a soul is amazing, far better than the walking dead!" ”
These words were heard by Wang Guangming, who was the main driver, and he was also reflecting on himself.
After a moment of reflection, Wang Guangming's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart was excited, "I seem to be the 5th layer!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the air in the car suddenly stagnated.
Then the two complained in unison: "You think you are on the fifth layer!" ”x2
The corners of Wang Guangming's mouth twitched suddenly, "Hm... It's embarrassing! ”
It didn't take long for the convoy to arrive at the army site in Sioux City.
