Chapter 5851: Character
Lin Feng smiled.
"The middle class is a new class that the country is vigorously developing. If a country wants to be stable and prosperous, the middle class is indispensable. The strength of the United States lies in its rugby-shaped economic structure, with a huge middle class and few rich and poor people at both ends. This is why the United States is so strong today!" Lin Feng sighed, "On the other hand, our country is in the shape of a gourd. The poor people at the bottom are particularly huge, while the middle class people in the middle are particularly small, and the small gourd at the top is the rich class in our country. This class is too much!"
Lin Feng shook his head.
If this model continues, the national economy will move towards a vicious circle, a "oligarchy economy" vicious circle that all countries dislike, with most of the wealth concentrated in the hands of a very small number of people. What kind of economic model is this? It is the economic model of underdeveloped countries. All underdeveloped countries, even some countries with particularly serious corruption, are like this.
Therefore, if China wants to change, the middle class must become larger, and resources must be distributed to more people, so that those who are capable, smart, and courageous can succeed. Only when there are more people like this, the national economy will really go up, and the society will be truly healthy.
"So, your target is these middle classes. They are young, wealthy, and good at accepting new things. The key to promoting Han culture lies in them. Then it will start to spread from them and form a trend!" Lin Feng said seriously, "Of course, in this regard, I will allocate 100 million yuan to you. You can hold more grand festivals every year to arouse some interest from the outside world. But whether everyone is here to watch the excitement or to see the novelty, or whatever, let's make it exciting first!"
100 million! This is a lot of money! Compared with the current promotion of Han culture. This money is not small. 100 million can do a lot of things. But in Liu Shangfu's view, he curled his lips slightly. Because Lin Feng is so rich. He only invested 100 million, and if I guessed correctly. It should be RMB. This is a little disappointing.
Lin Feng naturally understood Liu Shangfu's disappointment at a glance. But he didn't explain too much. 100 million is enough for now. Although I have money, tens of billions or hundreds of billions are nothing. But money should not be spent in this way.
To promote Han culture. What is its ultimate goal? It is not that everyone must wear Hanfu every day and speak in a zihuzheya manner. That is just a formality and superficiality. The real goal is to regain Han culture, rebuild the spirit of the Chinese people, regain confidence, and regain the pride of our descendants of Yan and Huang!
This pride cannot be bought with money. If it can be bought with money, it is not pride, it is called nouveau riche. It is called a bumpkin! Because, this pride, in China. It is called - character.
What is character? The literal meaning is upright spirit; tenacious demeanor and temperament. This word comes from "Book of Jin. Biography of Helian Bobo": "However, his knowledge is high and his character is extraordinary. Yao Xing was intoxicated when he saw it, and Song Zu was moved when he heard it."
To promote Han culture, we need to find this character of the Chinese people. Without character, today's Chinese people are just a person who forgets righteousness when he sees profit. A race that is selfish and cold-hearted. Such a race. It can even be said that they are not worthy of living on this planet. They call themselves descendants of Yan and Huang.
So, money can't buy it. Lin Feng will spend money to promote it, but he will never spend a lot of money to do it. That would lose its meaning and it would be impossible to find it.
"Okay, everyone, it's time for dinner, let's go eat. This person is iron, and food is steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. We are all important people, and we have to eat no matter how busy we are at work.
Otherwise, no matter how much money you make or how many new inventions you create, if you don't have a healthy body, then everything will lose its meaning!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
No matter how important the work is, you have to eat three meals a day on time. Otherwise, your stomach will be damaged, which is a long-term torture. Especially as people get older, this torture will become more and more severe. Therefore, in the company, Lin Feng has always advocated a reasonable, healthy and regular diet.
It can even be said that Lin Feng has issued a rule, that is, when it's time, no matter how big the matter is, stop and eat! You don't eat, okay! That's a violation, points will be deducted!
In Linfeng Company, everyone has a score every year. Completing tasks will earn extra points, and various violations will deduct points. And this score, at the end of the year, is the amount of year-end bonus. Everyone has the same score. Everyone's score coefficient is also the same.
In other words, the amount of year-end bonus received by employees of all companies under Linfeng is theoretically the same. Do you have any objections to this? The lower-level employees certainly have no objection. As for the senior management, they have long been happy with their generous annual salary. They don't care about this year-end bonus.
After all, the year-end bonus has a history of thousands of years in China. According to records, the year-end bonus already existed in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, as soon as the twelfth lunar month began, the emperor would start distributing year-end bonuses to civil and military officials. There were fixed rules for how much to be given: the generals and the three highest officials would each receive 200,000 coins (wuzhu coins, the same below), 200 kilograms of beef, and 200 hu of rice; the nine ministers would each receive 100,000 coins; the colonels would each receive 50,000 coins; the secretaries would each receive 30,000 coins; and the chamberlains would each receive 20,000 coins.
In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the purchasing power of a five-zhu coin was equivalent to 40 cents in RMB, and a dou of rice weighed 16 kilograms. Based on this estimate, the year-end bonus that each general and the three dukes could receive was about 100,000 yuan in RMB. At that time, the monthly salary of the three dukes and the generals was only 17,500 five-zhu coins, which was only 7,000 yuan in RMB. The year-end bonus received this time was more than their annual salary.
However, this is just a custom. How much to pay depends entirely on the upper level. If the upper level is willing to treat differently, then treat differently. If the upper level is willing to treat everyone equally, then treat everyone equally. In Lin Feng's case, the year-end bonus is also the only time when the company reflects equality at the end of the year. In order to let everyone have a good year and have a good mood, the year-end bonus is uniformly distributed. It has a certain meaning of robbing the rich to help the poor.
Of course, Lin Feng's year-end bonus is also relatively generous. Generally speaking, it is more than tens of thousands of yuan. Basically, everyone is generally satisfied.
In the company, three meals a day must be fixed at fixed times. Of course, you can not eat, but you must go. Moreover, Lin Feng also allows you to add meals at any time, and Lin Feng does not restrict this. The only thing Lin Feng forced was three meals a day, and all of you had to come to the restaurant, regardless of whether you ate or not.
Of course, there was no such forced order before. But later, the company's development was booming, and the employees' stomach problems were also booming. During the annual routine physical examination day for company employees, the data obtained by Lin Feng showed that 78% of people suffered from stomach problems, which was too scary.
And stomach problems cannot be cured by treatment, but by care. Faced with the company's situation, what should we do? After thinking hard, Lin Feng issued a meal order.
It's up to you whether to eat or not. The company's rules and regulations stipulate that if you don't come to eat, you will be deducted. The year-end bonus will be kept for you to deduct. If it's not enough, the salary will be deducted. Anyway, if you think you have a lot of money, you can disobey the company's orders.
So, after running for a period of time, the company's stomach problems showed a clear downward trend after another physical examination. After a year, when it was checked again, basically no one in the company had stomach problems anymore. And everyone looked good, with red and white faces.
And there was an unexpected gain, that is, everyone ate together in the restaurant, which in turn promoted the unity of the company, and many innovative ideas were thought of in the restaurant.
After all, there were many people, and everyone chatted about everything, and occasionally they would collide with cremation.
"Hey, old Joe, how are you, what does Mr. Hua say?" Lin Feng sat next to Jobs and asked in a low voice.
Jobs' illness is a pain in everyone's heart. It is like the "Achilles heel", which makes everyone who is familiar with Jobs feel sad.
Half a year of life! It has been more than a month, and Jobs only has about five months left to live. Think about it, such a genius inventor, a pioneering genius, died like this, how can it not be heartbreaking.
Jobs himself was very indifferent to this. Perhaps, he was afraid of this disease at first. But after you face death many times, you will no longer be afraid. It can even be said that you can really laugh at death.
In fact, death is never a terrible thing. What is really terrible is waiting for the moment before death. When you are no longer afraid of waiting, then death is nothing to be afraid of.
After all, people will always die. Fear is nothing more than instinctive fear and reluctance in the heart. The strong are never afraid of this instinct. And reluctance is because of all the regrets in the past. Jobs has no regrets in his life. He has already written his own unique mark in this era.
"It's not that there is no way. Mr. Hua said a way, but it is not mature yet." Jobs frowned and said, "He said it is a new technology, cell repair surgery, from Western medicine. But at present, Chinese medicine cannot completely overcome its huge side effects. He asked me to wait patiently!"
When Lin Feng heard it, he knew that this must be "x-radiation particles". But it is true that this thing can indeed repair diseases in people. It's just that the side effects are particularly large, and the energy balance cannot be solved. Even if it is cured, it will become a monster that keeps eating all day long, which is meaningless!
"It seems that there is always a way out! Old Steve Jobs, hold on. You know, if we lose you, the world will lose its brightest light. People like me are not too many, and people like you are indispensable!" Lin Feng encouraged.
As for Steve Jobs, Lin Feng would do his best to save his life, because he is the kind of person who can truly change the world. He himself is not that capable! (To be continued)
