Chapter 651: The Philosophical Significance of the Bar Lifting Machine (No Wood in the Stone 2/10)(2/2)
Obviously, Mr. Pei's success is not an accident, but the result of careful consideration.
The reason why Mr. Pei can think deeper and further than ordinary people is because he uses this extremely strict attitude to create a space for himself where he can abandon some distracting thoughts and concentrate on thinking!
While other people are at home with their wives and children warming up, Mr. Pei is still here seriously thinking about the future development direction of Tenda Group. Over time, it makes a huge difference!
Zhang Lixian suddenly thought of a question and looked at the black box on the coffee table: "Then, what is this black box used for?"
Li Shi didn't say anything, but demonstrated it to Zhang Lixian.
Quickly press a few small metal sticks, and the machine in the box will automatically restore them one by one.
Zhang Lixian was at a loss: "This..."
Li Shi explained: "It is an exquisite handicraft."
"However, it is rich in some philosophical meanings and helps us think better."
"There is an identical one in Mr. Pei's room. It took me a lot of effort to find the official website of this thing. Unexpectedly, it was also made by Yuanmeng Venture Capital!"
"In other words, this thing is probably Mr. Pei's special custom-made invention."
"Its name is a fully automatic bar lifter."
Zhang Lixian is still confused: "Fully automatic bar lift machine? How can that have philosophical meaning? How can it help us think better?"
Li Shi turned the fully automatic bar lifting machine to Zhang Lixian and asked her to press it again.
Zhang Lixian pressed the button for a minute and wondered: "What's the point of this? Is it a complete waste of time?"
Li Shi smiled slightly: "It makes no sense."
"Its meaninglessness is its greatest meaning."
"This contains the traditional philosophical thought of Taoism: use of useless things."
"It can make people realize that a certain behavior is meaningless, which is a kind of meaning in itself."
"This thing is called a fully automatic arrogance machine. It simulates the entire process of arguing with others online."
"Nowadays, there are more and more trolls on the Internet, and there are more and more meaningless arguments. Especially public figures, it is really easy to fall into such meaningless arguments."
"We are always used to arguing with others, but most of the time, many people are not arguing about right or wrong, but about differences."
"Everyone will not really want to understand what the other person's true meaning is, or reflect on whether they are wrong. Instead, they will try every means to dig out loopholes in the other person's language and try to refute the other person."
"So, we will find that it is never possible to reach a consensus by arguing with others online."
"Arguing with these people is like trying to argue with this fully automatic machine. No matter how hard you try, it will come back and you are just wasting your time."
"As a thinker, it is easier to fall into this kind of meaningless debate. Because the more you think about it, the more angry you will be at some people's stupidity; the more you think about it, the easier it is to fall into your own stupidity.
The state of self-awareness.”
"Both the former and the latter are very dangerous. Thinking brings us wisdom, but sometimes it also brings us paranoia and arrogance."
"And this machine is to remind you that this is meaningless, don't waste your time, and don't argue with online trolls."
"You just need to think carefully and do your own thing well."
"So, whenever I feel irritable, I press it. I watch it keep arguing with me and restoring all my efforts. Finally, I realize that I am wasting time and doing useless work.
.”
"So, my negative emotions were vented, and I could calm down and continue thinking."
"Why didn't Mr. Pei leave any handicrafts or decorations in the room, only this?"
"That's because it's not just a craft or art piece, it's also a 'thinking machine' that matches the layout of the entire room, allowing us to better calm down and think."
