Heather said that the political foundation of China culture is Taoism. In history, whenever something goes wrong, it is Taoist thought that sets things right.
Taoism says that governing by doing nothing and conforming to the laws of nature is conducive to reducing selfish desires and calming people's hearts, thus bringing order out of chaos.
When it comes to Taoism, I think of "The Distant Savior" (the TV series was renamed "Heaven"). The core of Ding Yuanying's cultural attribute is similar to Taoism.
Ding Yuanying believes that the law of development of anything can't be divorced from strong culture and weak culture. The core of a strong culture is to conform to the laws of nature, and the root of a weak culture is the culture of expecting a savior, which has the characteristics of redemption, equality and dependence. A strong culture creates a strong person, and a weak culture creates a weak person.
People who conform to the laws of nature know how to wait and see, can "give way" when encountering problems, and know how to grasp the core regardless of the strength of their opponents.

In The Distant Savior, Wen Ya Jr. is a strong man in a sense. She didn't ask Ding Yuanying, she didn't force Ding Yuanying, and she didn't wait for Ding Yuanying to give her a chance. After the dissolution of the private equity fund, Wen Ya Jr. knew the value of Ding Yuanying, so she left herself an unreachable opportunity.
However, when she knew that something had happened to the metrical poem, her judgment was that the opportunity came and she quickly seized it. She didn't communicate with Ouyang, but signed a contract directly with Ouyang. When signing the contract, she said that her chance was to win the lawsuit and the risk was to lose it. With her knowledge of Ding Yuanying and her ability to analyze the whole thing, she does not deny the possibility of losing, but she is more optimistic about winning.
Wen Ya Jr. can successfully join the metrical poem, which means that he can spend a lot of money with four sums of money. This is an opportunity for the strong, not for the weak.

Ye Xiaoming, Feng Shijie and Liu Bing are the representatives of the "weak culture" in the novel. Ye Xiaoming is the wise man of the three. Seeing the value of Ding Yuanying, he lured Feng Shijie to approach him. After the Wang Miao Village project officially landed, all three people got the shares they wanted.
However, the core of the weak culture is the culture of looking forward to the savior. Ye Xiaoming wants to borrow Ding Yuanying's wisdom to achieve his goal. On the surface, he is clever, but his essence is "relying". When they learned that the metrical poem had offended Le Sheng, their first thought was that the backer was going to fall, so they withdrew their shares overnight.
When introducing metrical poems, Ding Yuanying played the routine of "robbing the rich to help the poor". The reason why Ding Yuanying can pose as "robbing the rich to help the poor" is based on Rui Xiao Dan's wishes, and also because he has seen through the cultural attributes and knows how people with different attributes will react and what direction things will generally develop.
Le Sheng's slogan is "Attack! Attack! The slogans of "attack" and "the sage only has a spear without a shield" are powerful on the surface, but they are powerless in essence. Nothing in the world will only develop in one direction, but Lin Yufeng thinks it is possible. Therefore, the flagship of Lesheng has become the leading brand in the industry.
Everyone knows that "water overflows when it is full". Many people think that Lin Yufeng's death is Ding Yuanying's fault. In fact, Lin Yufeng died of his understanding of "the essence of the law of development of things".
Ding Yuanying's "robbing the rich to help the poor" is somewhat immoral, but it is technically successful in the industry competition. He knows how to win, so he can master the law of things, grasp the differences of human nature, and use a small stereo to open the fairy tale that Rui Xiao Dan wants.
Liu's withdrawal was expected; Wen Ya Jr. (excellent talent) is also expected by Ding Yuanying; It is also in Ding Yuanying's plan that metrical poems can be put on the market in an open manner; Only Lin Yufeng's suicide was unexpected in Ding Yuanying.
Ding Yuanying doesn't want to prove that he is a strong man, but he shows us what success means through his understanding of cultural attributes-conforming to the law can naturally set things right.
Ding Yuanying, a man who knows how to conform to the laws of nature, has the composure of "letting the bullets fly for a while", the boldness of vision driven by the wind, and the wisdom of changing with the constant.

Shi Nan said that many cases of China are based on the moral concepts in the Four Books and Five Classics. Therefore, the Four Books and Five Classics, in the era when there was no constitutional concept in the past, were strictly a constitutional thought, that is, the center of political philosophy and legal thought. In life, many of our behaviors, thoughts and roots also come from this.
I am a slow reader of this book. First, it will be boring if I don't read it for a long time. Second, since I want to read it, I should try to read it at my own pace. Among them, if I can catch something, collide with something, or extend something, it is meaningful.
Reading, most afraid of reading a lot, only stays at the level of knowing what it is but not knowing why.
