Recently I saw such a story in Wang Xiaobo's "The Silent Majority": It is said that before the Three Kingdoms, Yunnan was full of coconuts. The locals can eat coconut shredded rice, and coconut oil can also be eaten. The fibers in the coconut leaves can weave rough dresses, while the trunk of the coconut tree is wood. This tree can meet most of people's daily needs. One day Zhuge Liang led his troops to this point. He wanted to educate the local people, so he let them live in our way, sow in spring and harvest in autumn, wear our clothes, and obey our system.

Farming is much more difficult than picking ready-made coconuts. This seemingly superior system is not very superior to the locals, so it is difficult to implement until Zhuge Liang felt that it would not work to educate only by talking, so It was ordered to cut down all the coconut trees in Yunnan, which forced people to follow such a troublesome way of life.

Of course, this is just a rumor. I don't know, and I don't really believe it, whether Zhuge Liang, who is a sage of a generation, will nakedly threaten the ignorant people with force. But from this incident, I can detect a phenomenon that often occurs around me: others always try to convince me with their own ideas or doctrines, forcing me to join their camp. And when I showed a little bit of disinterest, or even the slightest tendency to disapprove, others would show disgust and say, "Why are you like this!"

Of course, this is just my fantasy when I stare at other people's disappointed eyes, but the loneliness on the other's face is real and can be seen. Whenever this happens, I always have a tangle in my heart: I can't bear to see others feel unhappy because of me, but I can't accept opinions that are contrary to my own considerations. The final compromise is to have to deal with each other verbally, but inwardly cursing, but who is cursing? It’s not about scolding yourself, and it’s not about scolding others. Feeling extremely depressed in the chest.

After so many experiences like this, I slowly learned to be good. I also stopped talking in public, and I avoided arguing with people in private. Change the subject as soon as you see signs of it. In doing so, I am truly one of the silent ones, but one of the few, not the majority, of my surroundings.

When I was in my twenties, I was obviously still a teenager, but after being so restrained, I had to resist. I don't consider myself an uncivilized barbarian, but even barbarians are unwilling to be educated by the so-called Central Plains people, not to mention that the gap between you and me is as big as a tractor and an old ox pulling a cart? Who will assess this gap?

Who the hell gave them the right to replace my leaves with silk? The answer is themselves. I always think that my own thoughts are superior to others, so no matter whether others like it or not, I always want to put it on others. In Wang Xiaobo's words, although the material is good, "it can't cover sweat and prickly heat when wearing it on the body". If your theory is really that good, but I don't think it conforms to my actual situation, I might as well not listen to it, so why bother pretending to be worried and superior in an attempt to convince me. Doing nothing to change the tricks about clothes, wearing front and back, and then looking for people to sell them all over the street. And this is the side business that many people who have read books are keen on today. Fortunately, they know it is a side business. After all, they still don't know how to "make it clear". Stop and try on clothes. Otherwise, some people will have to be forced into the Castle Peak.

Looking at the long history, literati have learned this kind of sales since the birth of Confucius, and Mencius developed it to a climax. The phrase "no father and no king is a beast", I don't know how many people are embarrassed to talk. During the Cultural Revolution, it developed to the extreme, and people no longer had to try on clothes, because there is only one piece of clothing to wear today, and thinking about the other is not just ignorant, but reactionary.

Having said that, in order to do a prosperous business, in addition to having good salesmen, customers who are easily impressed are of course essential. Elliott Aronson mentioned in his "Social Animals" that conformity refers to changes in people's behavior or opinions caused by real or imagined pressures on a person or a group. Born in this land where harmony is the most important thing, we have a great environment for conforming to the crowd. Do you agree with this view? It just so happens that I am too, so we are confidants. Let's go, let's have a drink! Are you against that view? It doesn't matter, me too. Let's go, let's have a drink! This wine is indeed a good thing. After two or three glasses, people can trust each other, but it is unknown what the situation will be when he wakes up the next day.

What I'm trying to say is that it's easy to agree or disagree with an opinion under pressure from others around you, especially if the pressurer is some authority or someone close to you. So we often see that when two literati are arguing somewhere, there is always a large group of unreasonable people behind them who act as speakers. If you ask him why he is on this side, he will tell you that this person is reasonable, but when you ask what this principle is, people always like to go around and talk for a long time, from outer space to the inner womb, The final conclusion is: This man is right! Listeners will feel that this person knows astronomy and geography, but it is unclear whether there is a necessary connection with this principle. If there are too many people saying this, you will inevitably feel dizzy, and finally make yourself want to jump into the ring of fire with honor and shout: This person is right!
