Chapter 309 Ideal and Reality, the Real Thing Is There

So why do I have to say "boring" more?

Uchiha Ling sat on the sofa, and the four people opposite him stared at him at the same time in unified formation. It seems that it is impossible not to say something.

Don't underestimate the wisdom of Shuchiin's first grader! Uchiha Ling coughed slightly and said slowly.

"Do you know what real things are? The so-called ideal and reality, rationality and sensibility. Whether it is the pursuit of spiritual and soul satisfaction or the achievement of real standards in material terms."

"There is a saying on the Internet that only by finding the real thing can you achieve true happiness."

Yukinoshita nodded, "So what does this have to do with what we are discussing?"

"Don't be anxious, I'll tell you slowly. In fact, both of your theories... are correct!"

Glancing at Shirasaki Hana at the bedroom door, Uchiha Ling continued.

"Your point of view is like saying... everyone knows that little flowers are cute. On the one hand, you use words to describe why they are cute and what is so cute. But even if you describe the little flowers so shockingly, you still can't express how cute they are. cute."

"On the other hand, the other party doesn't even want to describe it. They just post the photos. You can see for yourself whether they are cute or not."

Having said that, what is the real thing? What is the use of the real thing?

To put it simply, the real thing is an optimal solution to perfectly cope with life, society and ideals. Because of the diversity of people's personalities, it is difficult for people to understand each other.

Just like the four people now, no matter which side Uchiha Ling is on, no matter how reasonable his words are, the two people on the opposite side will not give up their ideas easily.

So at this time, the only thing Uchiha Ling can do is to find a way for the four of them to understand each other, instead of overthrowing one party and making them submit to the other.

As for Chitanda Airi and Fujiwara Chika, Yukinoshita Yukino and Hayasaka Ai.

It is impossible for these two parties to succumb to each other easily. If we use simple words to group them here, they are the social active group and the individual independent group.

If you look carefully, you will see that the former has a lot of friends in the small society of school because they are used to living together as a unit, and their lively and cheerful personalities are more adaptable to the collective atmosphere.

But as for the latter, Hayasaka Ai's hot girl form at school is not her true nature at all. It is just a pretense for work. In fact, her true nature is similar to that of young ladies such as Yukinoshita and Shinomiya Kaguya.

The independent group puts more emphasis on the individual. They will not expect anything from anyone, nor anything that is beyond reality, such as love and soul. They believe that only by being strong can one be truly powerful.

Uchiha Ling suddenly stood up and walked into Yukinoshita's study. As a literary girl, Yukinoshita's library was really comprehensive, and Uchiha quickly found what he wanted.

"This is the book "The Birth of Tragedy" by the German philosopher Nietzsche. If you are interested, you can read it."

Chika Fujiwara frowned, "Well...I get annoyed when I see densely packed words."

Yukinoshita is very interested. Although she has bought many famous books, she has not read them all. Obviously this book is beyond Yukinoshita's knowledge. Since Uchiha Ling recommended it, she could take a look.

But what does this book have to do with today?

"In "The Birth of Tragedy," the author Nietzsche discusses the two spirits of Dionysus and Apollo from the perspective of ancient Greek art... They are somewhat similar to you now..."

The ancient Greek god of wine is the embodiment of indulgence in art, while the sun god Apollo is the embodiment of order.

Chitanda’s infinite curiosity and Fujiwara Chika’s extreme fun-loving spirit are obviously representatives of a Dionysian spirit.

Yukinoshita's rigorous and conscientious character and Hayasaka Ai's maid with a thousand faces are obviously representatives of a Japanese spirit.

"Let me use a simple example. If the school holds a dance, Chitanda and Fujiwara-san must be the type of people who have a lot of fun, right?"

Chitanda and Fujiwara Chika looked at each other, then nodded at the same time. If there was a dance in school, the two of them would be the ones having the most fun.

But what about Yukinoshita and Hayasaka Ai? Apart from Hayasaka Ai's disguised hot girl character, they might find a quiet place to watch everyone singing and dancing silently, because they don't quite understand what is so crazy about this group of people.

"But what I want to say is to elevate your conflict to the theoretical conflict between Dionysus and Apollo? No, no, no!"

Uchiha Ling was very awake, then looked at Yukinoshita and Hayasaka Ai and said.

"The word "wine" in the spirit of Dionysus is very good, because it also means "drunk", and drunk represents an attitude towards things, as if you are drunk and forget your worries and stress."

Study, work, family in life. You can ignore all the unpleasantness arising from this for the time being, as long as you learn to enjoy the concept of "drunk".

This is why in Tokyo, a city where office workers and students are under great pressure, there are so many music bars, dance halls and other entertainment venues. This is obviously an important spiritual consumption place for modern young people.

"You two think about it for yourselves. Who is under greater pressure, you or Chitanda and the others?"

Hayasaka Ai, who was troubled by work: "..."

Yukinoshita, who was troubled by her family: "..."

On the other hand, look at Chitanda, who shows off her curiosity with a smile every day, and Chika Fujiwara, the ultimate fun child.

Yukinoshita gritted her teeth. Just as Hayasaka Ai was about to speak, Uchiha Ling pointed the finger at the other two.

"Unlike the indulgent Dionysus, the essence of the Sun Gods lies in the idealized world they imagine. Because they have experienced the unhappiness in life, they will move forward towards their goals firmly."

Because of independence, they did not think about releasing pressure, but turning pressure into motivation! Make the brain more calm and rational. When facing anything, only by keeping calm and analyzing can the problem be solved as quickly as possible.

"You two should also look at the opposite side. Do you have a clear direction and determination in life?"

Chitanda, who is curious and has no worries every day: "....."

Fujiwara Chika, who is looking for fun and likes to play every day: "....."

In the final analysis, both spirits are actually not wrong, whether it is the optimistic current group or the calm independent group.

The Sun Gods' pursuit of absolute rationality for rationality is itself a manifestation of sensibility, and the Dionysus's mentality of living in the present and enjoying the present is also a rational choice.

By the way, what is the real thing? The real thing is a collection of beautiful things that Dionysus and Sun Gods are pursuing at the same time.

The Dionysus is always pursuing beauty, and the future with Sun God will be better. No matter who is right or wrong, the two people's philosophy is for the beautiful things in their hearts.

"So I really don't understand what you four are arguing about. In my opinion, it's as boring as a foodie and an otaku discussing whether to buy games or snacks with the 1,000 yuan in their hands."

Yukinoshita smiled. "Hmph, you are the otaku. Let's go, Chitanda, let's go make hot pot."

Fujiwara Chika stuck out her tongue. "I'm not a foodie! Hayasaka-san, let's go help too~"

Not far away, Shirasaki Hana, who was holding her stomach: "..."

"Why is the hot pot not ready yet~ What they said is really boring, not as good as my hot pot!"

Tsurumi Rumi on the side was thoughtful, "Well, I'll go to sister Yukino to borrow "The Birth of Tragedy" later."

Hana swallowed her saliva. "Books don't matter, just eat hot pot quickly."

"What do you know, books are indispensable spiritual food."

Shirasaki Hana pouted. "Hot pot is better!"

Tsurumi Rumi was not to be outdone. "Books are better!"
