Chapter 551: Surface target, deep target

"Next, let’s talk about Greece and Persia. I believe that there is no doubt that both Greece and Persia are in a stage of rapid development. Greece’s magic is the world’s best. The development of philosophy, geometry, theoretical knowledge and technology, It has far surpassed any country. This is not bragging, but something that has actually happened in the past few decades."
Almost everyone nodded.
Su Ye continued: "It is certain that Persia is also developing rapidly, but please note that the development of Persia and the development of Greece are not in the same direction. The development of Greece is magic, philosophy, geometry, knowledge and Technology, Persia is also making great efforts in this area. However, Persian resources are used in the two most important places, one is war, and the other is luxury goods. Magic and knowledge will come later. No one can deny this, right?"
Everyone agrees.
"War and territorial expansion can indeed bring wealth to the country, and war can also vigorously promote technological innovation, but the problem is that as the investment in war continues to increase, after reaching a limit, the more investment in war, the final The income is gradually decreasing. The simplest example, when we only have 100 golden eagles all over our body, it took a month to earn a new 100 golden eagles. We will be very happy. This is a typical low-consumption high-development. But we When there were 100 million golden eagles, it took us a month to earn 100 golden eagles. We would swear at people because this is a typical high-consumption low-development."
Everyone smiled and nodded, this metaphor is very vivid.
"Luxury is not much to say. Persia is extravagant throughout the country. Their excellent magicians and craftsmen spend their energy on making gems and making gold and silver jewelry, but what about us Greeks? We make new living utensils, we are Researching new papers, we are developing navigation technology, we are exploring the sky, starry sky, ocean, philosophy, magic, and technology. These areas will inevitably explode after a long period of accumulation."
"Moreover, with the presence of gods, our Greek city-states have not had large-scale internal fighting for many years, and internal consumption has been reduced to a minimum."
"To sum up, Greece is a low-consumption and high-development country, while Persia is a high-consumption and high-development country. Now, let me ask you again, in the long run, will the future belong to Persia or Greece?"
"Greece!"
Warm applause sounded in the chamber.
Climella whispered: "Teacher Su Ye is too good."
Palos lightly nodded her head, and continued, suddenly stopped, raised her head, and glanced at Su Ye secretly.
Su Ye smiled and said: "I can only say that from this perspective, using this method, the future belongs to Greece, but from another perspective, the result is not necessarily. Even in Greece, it is in the stage of'low consumption and high development'. It belongs to Greece. However, if one day a country surpasses Greece, such as Rome or Northern Europe, their consumption is lower than Greece, and their development is faster than Greece. Because consumption development is relative, Greece will become high consumption and low development. Country, then, the future belongs to a new country."
"Okay, very good, you showed us the bravery of young people and the wisdom of magicians. Then, let's continue to discuss the most intense question just now, how should we treat Persia? Is it a full confrontation, or a reduction in confrontation, and abandoning part of the benefits? , Make a concession?" Larence asked.
Su Ye was embarrassed.
The teachers laughed. The discussion just now was the most intense in the audience.
Those who support all-out confrontation almost scold those who support retreat as traitors, slaves, and kneeling clan.
Those who support the concession and almost scold the people who are in full confrontation are stupid or mindless barbarians.
If it weren't for Larence to stop, the two sides would definitely curse.
"Let's say, you don't answer, this year you have failed ten subjects." Larence said with a smile.
The teachers also laughed.
Su Ye looked at Nideen sullenly, all he learned from you.
Nidern looked calm, it's my ass?
"I have seen your point of view, let's say it." Niedern sold his teammates decisively.
"Oh? You already have a point of view? Tell me!" Aristotle was curious.
During this meeting, Aristotle had not spoken. When everyone saw that he had spoken, they became more curious about Su Ye.
Su Ye said helplessly: "Before answering this question, I will ask the two sides who had the most quarrel just now. Teacher Gregory, you are the main combatant, then, what are you doing to attack Persia?"
"Of course it is to defeat Persia, Persia is immortal, Greece can never be strong." Gregory said.
"Okay, then, Teacher Cadriius, you said that while fighting, in order to preserve Greece, you can sacrifice part of the benefits to give in and seek peace. Then, what is your purpose of seeking peace from Persia?"
"I said before, in order to accumulate strength, look for opportunities, and ultimately defeat Persia. You can't lose everything because of a momentary impulse." Caderius said.
Su Ye nodded and said, "Then I'll be straightforward. I think that the opponents are all right, but they also overlooked a very important issue."
"The two sides are concerned about what the other side is doing. One side thinks that the other side is backing down, and naturally infers that the other side has no backbone and is suspected of surrendering, and then pushes backwards, believing that the other side is on the Persian side and will eventually harm Greece. The opponent is the enemy."
"The other side thinks that it is blind and stupid to support full confrontation, because war can not solve the real problem, but will make the problem bigger and bigger, and it will naturally be reversed. The other side's behavior may drag Greece into an endless abyss. It hurts Greece and is considered an enemy."
"The end result is bound to be both sides swearing, even in order to prove that they are right and the other is wrong, they are hostile to each other, but they have forgotten that our common enemy is the outer Persia."
Everyone was silent.
Su Ye continued: "I am different from both sides. I didn't pay attention to'what are both sides doing'. I don't push back. I first pay attention to'why both sides do this.' Then why are both sides sitting here to discuss this matter? It’s to protect Greece! To make Greece better! That’s weird. You both think that the other is harming Greece, but I think that both of you are protecting Greece? Think about it carefully. Is it harming Greece or helping Greece?"
The chamber was silent.
"Indeed, both sides are helping Greece, and I almost fell into it just now." Larence sighed.
Some people nodded slightly.
Su Yedao: "In other words, when judging each other, the two sides used the wrong order of inference, first looking at the surface, and then inferring the wrong reason from the outside, and finally nailing the other party to the wrong crime wall. But I, or a few people, first look for the cause directly, and then get the final result from the inside out. The order of our thinking is different, which leads to the opposite end result."
"This is very good, I have to take it down seriously, this is what you said... the logic of the positive sequence, right?" Euclid recorded it seriously.
The golden mages were stunned for a moment, glanced at the masters of the sanctuary who were recording, and took out the magic book to record.
Among the silver magicians, most of them took notes seriously, but there were still a few who froze there with a confused look.
After a while, Larence looked at everyone who had finished recording, and asked: "So, do you think we should confront each other in an all-round way, or should we give in while confronting?"
"The level at which the problem occurs can never be solved. We must penetrate this level to find a way to solve the problem from a deeper level. For the simplest example, we feel itchy in our body, just scratch it. However, if we itch a lot and spend a lot of time every day scratching the itch, what will happen? It must be that the skin all over the body is red and cracked, but still can’t solve the itch. If we only blame the body itch, or just Blame yourself for the wrong scratch, then we will never be able to solve the problem. What will we actually do? We will penetrate the apparent "itch", determine that it is a kind of "disease", and then seek medical treatment for help. After treatment, we When the disease is healed, it doesn’t itch, and it doesn’t scratch."
"Itching is the level of the problem, and scratching is the solution to the level of occurrence, but this method can't actually solve the problem. But we found that the deeper level is a'some disease', and then we can solve the itch by curing the disease. To solve the problem."
"Using this principle, we look back, the teachers of the two sides, all the logic is'Persia attacked us, how do we counter Persia", that is to say, the tickling is coming, we tickled. Remember I asked at the beginning Gregory and Cadriius’s question? I added'Persia' to the question."
"I asked Teacher Gregory why we are fighting Persia in an all-round way, and his answer is, of course, to destroy Persia."
"I asked Teacher Cadriius what is the purpose of seeking peace with Persia, and his answer was to accumulate strength, find time, and defeat Persia."
"It all seems okay, but when I gave up Persia and we thought about'we are sitting here and discussing why this matter'~EbookFREE.me~ I said everyone was to protect Greece, and everyone took it for granted. . So, why is this so?"
"Because we are easily attracted to surface goals, and forget to explore deep goals, and we will never be able to solve the problem..."
"Then, I will ask one last time, what we really want to do in this meeting is to protect Greece or defeat Persia? The one who protects Greece will raise his left hand and the one who defeats Persia raise his right hand."
Larence raised his left hand first.
Afterwards, most people raised their left hands, and only a few people resolutely raised their right hands.
"Very well, everyone who raised their right hand, I can tell the truth, you are tickling and don’t want to treat the disease. In other words, you think the itching is the cause, and you think that the itching is the purpose, but no, the cure is the disease. Purpose. Just like, Persian aggression is only the appearance, but you take it as the cause. And defeating Persia is the goal, but in fact, defeating Persia is only a means. Our real goal is not to defeat Persia, but to protect Greece and peace. These two They seem to be the same, but they are like a world of difference."
Some people looked unhappy.
