Chapter 80: Thinking From Another's Perspective (Please Subscribe! Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!)
After listening to this opening statement, Su Zhiyong was very surprised.
He didn't expect that today's truth broadcast would start with a Mewtwo, and he happened to have played this Mewtwo.
In fact, Su Zhiyong didn't play much of "Another Possibility", Mewtwo. Although he often went to Lishan Technology's experience store, he only played the beginning of this Mewtwo, and barely played the tramp part. After playing it, I put it down.
The reason is simple, this Mewtwo is really not fun.
The first part is completely a homeless simulator. Every day I have to dig through the garbage to find food, suffer from cold and starvation, and all kinds of negative emotions flood my heart, which is even more discouraging than the beginning of "The Ember Will Go Out".
Although the beginning of "The Ember Will Go Out" is also miserable, at least the players can control their own destiny. In addition, "The Ember Will Go Out" can exercise and improve people's physical bodies in real life, so most people are getting used to it. I won’t feel particularly miserable after taking it.
On the other hand, "Another Possibility" is an experiential Mewtwo, which means that players have no choice but to passively accept their tragic fate!
No matter how determined you are, no one can resist being persuaded to retreat for such a long time.
After all, people who become homeless in reality will probably not be able to last long before restarting, but in Mewtwo, they can at least quit.
The only interesting thing may be the moment when you save enough change to buy a lottery ticket. Winning the lottery is indeed more exciting than winning a lottery ticket in reality.
But that's all. After all, most lottery tickets end up losing everything.
In short, Su Zhiyong didn't think there was anything special about this Mewtwo at all, but judging from what Mr. Qi said, this Mewtwo seemed to have a relatively profound connotation.
Otherwise, why would Mr. Guanqi have such a high opinion of him? He even said that this Mewtwo inspired him.
The others, like Su Zhiyong, continued to listen with suspense.
Du Guanqi continued: "The Super Dream of "Another Possibility" describes another parallel world. In that world, there is no space-time activity, no space-time particles, and there is no single-handedly monopolizing the entire industry like now. The big chaebol.”
"However, that world is not fundamentally different from the world we live in. People at the bottom are still living in hardship, and people are still indifferent to each other. Although large companies do not control the corporate army, they can use various methods to control the corporate army. The way that determines the life and death of ordinary people.”
"Although there were no mechanical prostheses or particularly powerful weapons in that world, people did not possess extraordinary power. The simplest and most ordinary bullet could cause terrible damage to people. A shooting by an ordinary gunman, as long as there is premeditation Yes, shooting at a crowded place can also cause dozens of casualties.”
"After comparing the two worlds, we will find that although there is no technological development brought about by space-time activities and space-time particles, this world still has many similarities with our world. Our pain reaches the same destination by different routes, even if our real world It’s a bit more cruel, but it’s just a matter of taking one step at a time and laughing at a hundred steps.”
"That's why I said that after playing this Mewtwo, I changed my view. I think the pain and suffering in the real world do not originate from space-time activities and space-time particles. Space-time activities may intensify this to some extent. A trend, but it’s definitely not the root cause.”
"A prerequisite for making this judgment is that the parallel world created in Super Dream must be logically self-consistent and cannot have obvious loopholes. If this worldview itself is not real enough or reasonable enough, then naturally it cannot be overturned. My judgment in reality.”
"Next, I would like to briefly share with you some details of the parallel world of Mewtwo. Listeners who have played this Mewtwo can also think back and think about whether the details of this Mewtwo are real."
"I believe everyone has played the first part of the tramp part and has some doubts about the life of a tramp."
"When I first started, I had a lot of doubts. For example, I didn't understand why a normal person with sound limbs couldn't find a suitable job to support himself in this social environment. I don't know why, but this homeless man obviously has He had good hands and feet, and once had a good job and good professional skills, but after becoming a homeless man, he became isolated from the entire human society and could no longer find any decent job. "
"I don't understand why this homeless man is trying so hard to integrate into human society, but there seems to be an invisible barrier that completely cuts him off from all the achievements and wealth of human development. Whether it's the security guard at the mall entrance, the street guard Passers-by and other homeless people all gave him a wide berth, their eyes full of hostility.”
"Even when the homeless man gets some change, what he thinks about is not buying more food, but immediately buying a lottery ticket."
"I don't understand the choice of this homeless man. I feel that all his misfortunes are due to his own laziness. I also don't understand the attitude of the entire society towards homeless people. These homeless people are obviously people who are still capable of working. Why? If you can’t even give them a basic job, why aren’t there even companies that let them give it a try?”
"This world is obviously not threatened by space-time activities, and human society is still developing safely and steadily. But why are the relationships between people still so indifferent?"
As soon as this was said, the people in the audience nodded one after another, and it was obvious that they all thought so.
In the old land, people were indeed cold and indifferent. It was rare to hear of selfless help from others. People were in a state of vigilance between each other. Only when they were sure that someone could bring benefits to themselves would they smile.
It can be said that the upper class and the lower class in the old land had two completely different rules of the game: the upper class still lived in a high-level social game of favors. No matter what they did, they could find shortcuts and complete it quickly.
But the lower class had invisible and intangible barriers everywhere. No matter which direction they went, they were very likely to be blocked back and could only spend their lives along the same route.
Everyone believed that the extreme environment caused by time and space activities led to the current situation.
Because this world is too dangerous, people live in fear and fear. So they have no time to care about others, only care about themselves, and can only live very hard.
If there were no such extreme environment, if the resources in this world were rich and the products were abundant, then people would naturally be full of kindness, and the atmosphere of the whole society would inevitably change.
Du Guanqi continued, "However, after I brought people into that world, I suddenly realized that this idea was very naive."
"Everyone might as well get rid of their inherent thinking and think about it. If we are people living in that world, what kind of thoughts would they have when they see the world we live in?"
"I think they will also think that our world is very unscientific."
"Our world is obviously in danger. Under the erosion of various space-time activities, human personal safety has suffered a major blow. But in this situation, we are still so indifferent and unwilling to help each other. Large companies often launch corporate wars and fall into chaotic internal struggles."
"In their view, the people in our world are obviously very stupid. In such an extreme situation, they can't unite to fight against space-time activities, and are still busy fighting for their own petty gains. There are still gaps and divisions between people. Isn't this even more unreasonable?"
When Du Guanqi said this, everyone in the audience was stunned.
Because they realized that what Du Guanqi said made sense.
Indeed, if you look at them from the perspective of people brought into that world, this world is indeed very strange.
The disaster is imminent. In such a difficult living environment, people are still obsessed with internal fighting. Instead of concentrating all people and resources to change the environment of the old land. Isn't this also a very stupid behavior?
After thinking from the perspective of others, everyone realized a certain problem, but only vaguely touched some boundaries. There is no way to summarize it clearly.
Du Guanqi continued, "After changing our perspective, we will find that no matter whether it is that world or the world we live in, if you consider it from the bright side of human nature, you will find that this world is very unreasonable. But if you consider it from the evil side of human nature, you will find that both worlds are equally real."
"Why is it that our world is already in danger, and the big tycoons in the old land are still thinking about how to grab more benefits from ordinary people all day long?"
"Because it is too difficult to gather everyone's consensus, concentrate all their resources, and change the status quo of the entire old land. In comparison, everyone is still more willing to fight for a little bit of small benefits for themselves. Although everyone knows that the former is right and the latter is wrong, in such an environment, the right goal seems to be far away, and there is even no possibility of success at all."
"And in the one described by Chaomeng In a parallel world, although the world is generally peaceful and there is no danger of space-time activities, for most people, it is precisely because there is no grand goal to drive their ideals that they can only focus all their goals on petty gains. "
"Because there is no big crisis in this world, selfishness seems more natural."
"After such an analysis, we will find that whether in our real world or in the parallel world described by Mewtwo, changes in the external environment will not have a fundamental impact on the state of the entire society. "
"Because it is everyone who determines the current situation of the entire world. Only people are the deep cause of everything, and the external environment will only fully stimulate people's characteristics in a certain aspect. "
The shadows in the audience conveyed the emotion of sudden enlightenment, and cheered and applauded.
Although many people here have not played the Mewtwo "Another Possibility", they carefully considered it according to the ideas given by Du Guanqi and found that it was indeed the case.
This way of thinking from an interchange of perspectives instantly broke the previous misunderstandings of many people.
Many people, like Du Guanqi, believed that "all suffering comes from space-time activities" because they had seen too many tragedies caused by space-time activities in this world, and they had too many aspirations for a beautiful and peaceful pastoral life. They unconsciously added a filter to the pastoral life, thus ignoring some deeper problems.
But after removing this filter, they realized that space-time activities were not the main cause of everything.
If people could truly unite and face the dangers brought about by space-time activities, would the old land become what it is now?
The answer is obviously no.
Du Guanqi paused for a moment, and then continued after everyone's emotions calmed down: "I know some people may question it, thinking that I base all my arguments on a fictional Super Dream, and the foundation is not solid enough. What if the worldview constructed by this Mewtwo is itself unreasonable, then will the conclusions I draw from this worldview also be unreasonable?”
"I can give a more detailed argument for this."
"It stands to reason that it is impossible for a Mewtwo to represent a completely real world, but this Mewtwo does just that."
"Because it uses a large number of rich and detailed details as the basis, which are intertwined to form a huge network. It is precisely because these details are used to support each other that it can give people an immersive sense of reality."
"After entering Mewtwo, we will notice that everything in this world is so natural. There are no contradictions in the skyscrapers, the clothes and diet of these people, or their lifestyles. You can see the efforts that the producers put into creating this unique worldview.”
"The plot lines of the four characters influence each other. Everyone makes a choice based on their own interests, and the choices made by each person will affect others. In the end, this intricate influence is like the butterfly effect, which determines the entire Super The final outcome of the dream.”
"The choices made by these people under the current conditions make us feel reasonable, and the impact of this decision on other people also feels reasonable, when every step is logical. Even if the final result, let us Surprised, it all makes sense.”
"The homeless man was treated unfairly by the world and was excluded from human society, so he naturally wanted to take revenge on the world. The small traders worked hard to make wealth with their own hands, but the gangsters who came to collect protection fees took him away. He was beaten all over, so he had reason to be wary of everyone, and he had reason to applaud after seeing the gangster being stabbed to death."
"In order to complete the gang's task, the gangster pretended to be vicious and went against his true intention to beat up the business owner. He had no way out, and of course he could only go to the dark side. Although the company owner had already made a lot of money However, it is reasonable for him to continue to extract more profits from other people by virtue of his power and status.”
"But the reasonable choice that everyone makes based on their own interests will eventually turn into an unacceptable tragic ending. No one can get a good death. Even the boss with the best conditions will die from the assassination of other competitors. ”
"On the contrary, if everyone can make the right choice, sacrifice a little of their own interests appropriately, and lend a helping hand to others, then everyone's destiny will be changed, and the whole story will take a completely different path."
"In fact, after carefully studying the whole story, we will find that bringing this story into our real world will not actually appear to be any abrupt. Maybe it is because there is nothing new under the sun. The reason why things happened in the past and now It seems familiar. The reason why things happening in the parallel world and the real world are similar is because although the environment is different and the external conditions have changed, something rooted inside has never changed. "
“This thing that never changes is the root of all pain and suffering.”
"Having said this, some people may not agree with what I said. Some people may ask: 'Everyone should make the right choice, sacrifice a little of their own interests appropriately, and lend a helping hand to others.' This sentence says It sounds simple, but how is it possible to do it in reality?'"
"Indeed, in reality, it is of course impossible for everyone to make rational and correct choices. After all, people are all for their own interests. But as long as most people can make correct choices and can see the long-term "
"In this Mewtwo, the fourth protagonist boss seems to be the person with the highest social status. He seems to be the source and culprit of all evil. But in fact, he will also be killed by other competitors."
"So if you want to achieve the best ending in Mewtwo, you actually have to fight against other bosses. When the protagonist boss in Mewtwo makes an evil choice, he stands on the same side as these bosses and becomes "
"Only when homeless people, gangsters, vendors and other ordinary people unite can we achieve a perfect ending."
"It's the same in reality."
"Obviously, only when the majority of ordinary people unite to eliminate the big plutocrats and spokesmen hiding in the dark can our world have a happy ending."
"And in this process, space-time activities and space-time particles are just an objective phenomenon that occurs in the surrounding environment. Space-time particles can be used by the big chaebols to become tools to oppress people, and they can also be used by us to overthrow the big chaebols. weapons."
“As stated in “The Embers Are Going Out”, as long as everyone can unite, they will surely be able to burn out a brilliant dawn!”
