Thick black school

Chapter 49
The rules of stereotyped essays are very strict. Books such as "Sishu Beizhi" and "Weigenlu" are vulgar, but every word is as fine as cocoon silk.I was mentally trained for this.I was recommended by my peers to be good at intercepting and matching questions. I can combine any two unrelated things into one piece.Therefore, when I write books and talk about reasoning, I have stereotyped righteousness.That's why I once said in "Essays on the Old Man": "Taoism came from historians; Confucianism came from Situ officials; thick black studies came from stereotyped officials."

I once said in "Hou Hei Cong Hua": "My father gave me a name, and I think he is not good." What is the name, I can also say.I felt that I was very mellow when I was young. My mother spun hemp and spun thread, and I followed her around. My mother told me to go out to play, but I didn't go, saying that I looked like a girl.When I got married, they said that I was very arrogant and unreasonable when I was young (about one or two years old). When they saw me, they called me "the king of people". , named "World Quan".The fortune teller said that I was hit by Shaojin, and my father and Jinbang became Shiquan.I was studying in Maoyuanjing, so I asked Mr. Jianhou to change my name, and he changed it to Bingheng.In the year of Yiwei, the Qing court ordered Li Bingheng, the governor of Shandong Province, to be the governor of Sichuan (he did not take office later). Mr. Liu Qi said to me: "Your name has the same name as the governor. You can change it." Mr. Qi can also tell fortunes, he It is said that I hit less trees, but not a lot of gold. I saw the saying in "Book of Rites" that "Confucianism has people who live today, people who live in ancient times, people who live in ancient times, practice it in this world, and later generations think Kai", so I named myself Shikai, with the word Zong Confucianism (it was later changed to Zongwu).Seventh teacher thinks that Li Shikai's three characters are all in a flat tone, so I changed it to Shiquan, but I don't want to, so I still use Shikai.

The most worthwhile study is that my father said that I was unreasonable when I was young. I felt that I followed the rules everywhere in my behavior, but I was unreasonable when writing words. I can attack any ancient sages and sages at will.

I won't talk about the two texts "Thick Black Studies" and "My Doubt About the Saint".I wrote "Discussion on the Examination System" and proposed a method. The education law issued by the government was not in line with my method, and I attacked it thoroughly.I wrote "Discussion on Social Issues" and created a general rule. Smith did not meet my general rule, and I attacked him thoroughly.This is a bit like the emperor in the autocratic era, issuing a decree that anyone who wants to violate the decree will be killed.My father said that I was unreasonable when I was young. Did I have this nature from the beginning of my life?Ordinary people call me the leader, but is it true that the status of the leader is equal to that of a king?As soon as Sakyamuni was born, he said: "I am the only one in the sky and on the earth." Am I not similar to him?Therefore, in 1912, "Thick Black Studies" was published, and the signature said: "Only One."

my thought system
In 1912, I published "Thick Black Studies", which was greatly influenced.Suspicion and jealousy everywhere, so that I am reduced to nothing, and I can't achieve anything. After a long time, most people think that the donkey has no skills, so they forget me invisible.However, people often ask me, what is the motivation for publishing this article?Where is the purpose?Is it cynical and intends to make trouble with society, or is it intended to improve society and expose the dark side?I said, "I wrote this article for the original purpose of joking."

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, I studied in Sichuan Higher School. I joined the Tongmenghui with my classmate Zhang Liewu (named Peijue, 1915, martyred in Beiping, Futuguan, Chongqing, with a tomb of clothes and crowns.) and graduated in the 33rd year of Guangxu (AD 1907). , Lie Wu said to me: "In the future when we have an incident, we must send you to lead a soldier." I was very happy to hear that, so I used the induction method to examine the heroes in history (there was no term for a great man at that time) one by one. , Looking for the secret of his success, but for a long time there is no harvest.In the second year of Xuantong (AD 1910), I was the supervisor of Fushun Middle School (the principal of the middle school at that time was named supervisor).Lying in the supervisory room all night, I happened to think of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and suddenly realized that I invented thick black science.Whenever friends get together, they talk about it at every turn, for laughter.My friend Wang Jianheng said: "What you said is very good, but I want to advise you, you follow what you said, put your head down to do it, and make sure you do a great career, but you must not say it in your mouth, let alone put it into words. , otherwise it will be disadvantageous to you.” Lei Minxin also said: “Thick and black studies, you can’t just do it.” Later, I didn’t listen to good words and published it.

In the year of Xinhai (1911 AD) Wuchang Uprising, Chongqing responded, Liewu was elected as the governor of the Shu military government, Chengdu followed anyway, Chengdu and Chongqing merged, Liewu went to the province, retired as deputy governor, and was in charge of civil affairs. I am at home in Ziliujing , Lie Wu sent a telegram asking me to go to the province with Liao Xuchu.At that time, the party members were in Tongzi Street, Chengdu, and they ran a newspaper called "Gonglun Daily".I live in a newspaper office, and people in the newspaper office asked me to write some articles, but I couldn't think of any articles, and everyone encouraged me to write about thick black studies.I was very hesitant at first, and Xu Chu said: "You can write it, and I will make a preface for you." Xu Chu is a person who teaches Cheng Zhuxue.I think the sages all said that they could be written, of course they could be written.Just write it out as a joke, but the impact it will have is not what Jian Hengmin expected.

I published this article under the pseudonym "Dou Zun", but everyone knows that I did the thick black school.I thought what would happen to me, but I didn’t know that I invented the thick black theory. This theory has become the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, descending above and beside me. Every time I want to do something, I just think about it and think to myself: If you do this, others will not Are you saying that I practice thick black studies?Therefore, I dare not let go of everything, and the root cause of my inability to become a great man lies in this.Thick black school, really misunderstood me.

Later I realized: the word "thick black" is indeed the secret of success, and it is a necessary skill in doing things.Using this kind of technique to seek one's own self-interest, we call it thick, or black, and using this kind of technique to seek the public interest of everyone, then Houzi becomes a person who endures humiliation and bears the burden of humiliation, and is a resolute and decisive person.If I had realized this truth that day, once I was doomed to the public benefit, I would just let it go and ignore the world's wrongs, wouldn't I become a great man with vigor and vitality?When I had no choice but to realize it, I was old and the opportunity had passed. Looking back on my life, I regretted it too much, so I had to write a book and tell it, and pass on this secret to others.Next, I will write out my propositions in three aspects: economics, politics, and international affairs.

([-]) On the economic aspect: When we reform the economic system, we should first of all make a clear distinction between the world's property, which should be owned by the public and which should be privately owned. The public should belong to the public, and the private should belong to the private. .

(5000) On the political aspect: After the 5000 Revolution, our country (Note: China under the rule of the Kuomintang, the same below) was transformed into a democratic republic, intending to follow the laws of Europe and the United States. This is a mistake.If we want to practice a democratic republic, the method is very simple. We only need to reverse the method of a real autocratic monarchy to become a real democratic republic. Forty-five million people are emperors, and the power of one emperor is divided into [-] million people. For [-] million yuan, each person holds one piece. We only need to study how each piece of imperial power is exercised.

Now the two major trends of democracy and authoritarianism are in conflict with each other.Mr. Sun Yat-sen talked about "civil rights" and said: "At the beginning of the constitution of the United States, those who advocated the decentralization of power believed that human nature was good, while those who advocated the centralization of power believed that human nature was not all good." The conflict is still a conflict of good and evil.We already know that human nature is pure, neither good nor evil, so when we formulate the constitution, we should combine the decentralization of power and the centralization of power. 5000 lines of force go directly to the central government to form an extremely sound joint government.The people should absolutely obey the orders issued by the president within his powers, just like the emperor of an autocratic country, it is for dictatorship, the power of the president is in the hands of the people, and the matters of national reform are decided by the people, which is for democracy Doctrine, in this way, the two currents merge into one.

Mr. Zhongshan once said: "In politics, there are two forces, one is the force of freedom, and the other is the force of maintaining order, just like in physics, there are centrifugal force and centripetal force." These two forces advocate the balance between the two sides, and don’t go to extremes, just like the centrifugal force and centripetal force of an object keep each other in balance.” Mr. Sun Yat-sen’s application of the principles of physics to politics is a new invention.Physically, centrifugal force and centripetal force are used for each other, so politically, they are laissez-faire and interference, and the two are used for each other.In the past, European countries practiced interventionism in industry and commerce, resulting in the decline of all industries. Adam Smith wrote the book "Original Wealth" and insisted on laissez-faire. Bossy, socially disruptive.We use Mr. Sun Yat-sen's principle of balance of two forces to nationalize all land, factories, banks and international trade, and enforce it. This is the so-called autocracy.Private life and painstaking business, all laissez-faire, non-harmful to society, do not interfere, this is the so-called freedom.The balance of the two forces is naturally stable.

Huangdi and Laozi are laissez-faire, while Shen Buhai and Han Feizi are interventionists. Both of them are good medicines for the country. If used properly, they can bring the dead back to life.Ying Qin was harsh and tyrannical, and the people were in dire straits; the Han Dynasty inherited it, and ruled it with Huang Lao, Liu Zhang was weak, and the criminal administration was relaxed;

Our country (Note: China under the rule of the Kuomintang) is suffering from complicated illnesses today. The disease of Ying Qin is harmful to some people, and the disease of Liu Zhang is harmful to some.Huang Lao, Shen Han, and Confucius and Mencius should advance simultaneously.Use the law of Shen Han to rule corrupt officials, arrogant soldiers, profiteering nobles, and use the way of Huang Lao to rule the common people.If this is the case, the disease in China will be cured immediately.

([-]) On the international aspect: the current Wuzhou Wanguo is the magnified form of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States in my country, and the ancient Spring and Autumn and Warring States is the epitome of today's Wuzhou Wanguo.If we want to speculate on how the world will evolve in the future, we should first study how the Spring and Autumn and Warring States evolved. If we want to resolve current international disputes, we must first study how the disputes in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States were resolved.

We have seen the international trend clearly, and then examine the various doctrines that have emerged in the world, which ones are suitable for this trend, and which ones are not suitable, the discussion is as follows:

World culture is divided into three regions: one is India, the other is Western, and the third is China.India is in the tropics, the West is in the frigid zone, and China is in the temperate zone. The three countries have different climates and different nationalities, so their doctrines are also different.The temperate zone compromises the biases of the cold and hot zones, so Chineseism can compromise the biases of Westernism and Indianism.

There are few natural products in the cold zone, and people cannot live without hard work, so they always want to conquer nature, which leads to aggression.The tropics are rich in natural things, and there is no shortage of what they need, so they let nature go, thus producing the doctrine of non-resistance.May I ask: "What kind of doctrine is produced by our country?" To answer this question, we must first study what kind of attitude our country has towards nature? The "Book of Changes" is tricky: "The way of heaven and earth is tailored to complement the suitability of heaven and earth." The so-called way of heaven and earth and the suitability of heaven and earth are all natural.With regard to nature, do not conquer it but support it, do not let it go but sanction it, and the resulting doctrine, from Kong Lao to Mr. Sun Yat-sen, is based on consistent resistance and not aggression.This is due to the fact that the ancient Chinese lived in the temperate zone, looked up and looked down, created theories, adapted to the environment, and unknowingly, they had a bias towards Western India.Other nationalities also live in temperate regions, but the same doctrines cannot be produced because they lack the research ability to look up and look down, and take other people's doctrines as their own doctrines.

Mr. Sun Yat-sen's nationalism is resistance and not aggression. Everyone knows that Laozi said inaction and Confucius said benevolence and righteousness. Of course there is no aggression, but the books of the two families repeatedly talk about war.Lao Tzu said: "When the resistance is added, the mourner will win." Confucius said: "If I fight, I will conquer." The so-called restraint and victory are both resistance.

During the Warring States period, the words of Yang Zhu and Mo Di spread all over the world. Yang Zi said: "Wisdom is the most precious thing, but keeping me is the most precious." This is the theory of resistance.He also said: "Strength is cheap, and invading things is cheap." This is the theory of non-aggression.Mozi does not attack, of course he does not invade. At the same time, Mozi is good at defending. Gongshu attacks nine times and Mozi defends nine times.Both stand for resistance rather than aggression.But when propagating doctrine, Yang Zi is for me, focusing on resistance; Mozi is both loving, focusing on non-aggression.The chaotic situation in the Warring States Period was exactly the same as it is now. At that time, my country's academics were the most developed era. Most scholars studied and felt that there was no other way to abandon Yang Zhu's ideas. Therefore, "the words of the world do not belong to Yang, but to Mo."We are in the current situation, and we also feel that there is no other way to abandon Yang Mo's proposition.

Mencius said: "Those who are good at fighting will be punished." Confucius said: "If I fight, I will conquer." Don't these two sayings conflict?As long as you know Chineseism, which means resistance and not aggression, there will naturally be no conflicts.Confucius once said: "If you don't teach the people to fight, it means abandoning them." He said, "If I fight, I will overcome it." He was talking about resistance.Mencius hated those who "fight for the city, fill the city with murder, fill the field with war, and fill the field with murder" to the extreme.He said: "Those who are good fighters will serve the punishment." It is in terms of aggression.In today's terms, Mencius said "those who are good fighters shall be punished", which is equivalent to saying "Japanese warlords should be shot".Confucius said, "If I fight, I will conquer," which is equivalent to saying "War of resistance will surely win."

China believes in Confucianism, the founder of Confucianism is Confucius, and the one who carried it forward is Zhu Zi.Confucius’ academics are different from Guan Zhong’s. Because Guan Zhong can respect Zhou and barbarians, he praised him and said: “As benevolent as he is, as benevolent as he is.”Because it can resist also.In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a calamity caused by the Jin people. In the first year of Longxing (AD 1163), when Zhu Zi first met Xiaozong, he said, "The Jin people and I have an unequal hatred, so we should immediately break off the peace talks."These places are where the spirit of Confucianism resides.

Chineseism is consistent resistance without aggression, and the cultivation of a kind of national character, so the Chinese people's arbitrary arguments are all in line with this doctrine.

For example: Emperor Qin and Han Wu opened borders, and historians attacked it in groups, thinking it was an invasion; the Han Dynasty abandoned Zhuya, and commentators all said that it was in line with the kingly way, because he did not invade; Qin Hui made peace, and became a sinner through the ages, because he did not resist; Adored by all, because he can resist.

A poet from the Tang Dynasty said: "Every year, the bones of war are buried outside the wasteland, and the grapes enter the Han family." It is like a portrayal of Mussolini's expedition to Abyssini.It also said: "Blood in the border court turned into sea water, and the Emperor Wu had no intention of opening the border." It is more like a portrayal of Hitler's invasion of the surrounding neighbors.Zhi Yun: "With Jun Mo's words, you can seal the marquis' affairs, and once you succeed, your bones will be destroyed." It was like scolding the young Japanese soldiers.These are all manifestations of our country's literati's hatred of aggression, and even when they are invaded, they become a force for force.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a calamity for the Jin people. Lu Fangweng's poem "You Zhuge Wuhou Reading Table" said: "There is no one who has been a teacher for a thousand years, far more than a wind and music cover. The world's vulgar scholars would rather distinguish and compare, what book should be read in the high hall that day." Denouncing the Confucianists in the Southern Song Dynasty, they only talked about Confucianism and did not seek to restore it.There is a poem written by Shier when he was dying: "Master Wang set the Central Plains Day in the north, and family sacrifices will never forget to tell Nai Weng." There are many works of this kind in Chinese poets. It can only be seen from the works of the bachelors that as for the people on the political stage, they change from time to time. The invasion of Qin Huang, Han Wu, and Qin Hui's non-resistance are all variations.

Westerners are rigid in nature, Indians are soft in nature, and the ancient Chinese handled the two characters rigidity and softness properly. In the book "Book of Changes", the virtues are rigid on the inside and soft on the outside.

Laozi and Guang Tongchen said: "There is nothing in the world that is weaker than water, but to attack the strong, there is no one who can be the first." Confucius Xun is like that, and said: "The three armies can win the commander, but the individual can't win the ambition." They are all spirits that are soft on the outside and strong on the inside.Our country has received this kind of education for thousands of years to develop a kind of national character, so the Chinese people have a gentle attitude, humility and courtesy, which is a manifestation of external softness.Once there is righteousness, it is a manifestation of inner strength to be selfless.However, because of its inner rigidity, after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the national war of resistance continued, which shocked countries all over the world.The national character of our country is already like this, so even though the Wuhu, Liao, Jin, Mongols, and Manchus invaded our country with violence, they were all expelled in the end.

Westerners advocate the theory of natural evolution and competition, knowing that there are others but not others, which is pure egoism; Hindus, who sacrifice their lives to save the world, know that others do not know who they are, is pure altruism; And to be good at people is to benefit both others and oneself.Indian scholars say that there are as many worlds as there are sands in the Ganges River, but their eyes are too big, and they see that the world has gone out, and their country will perish because of it.Westerners are also too narrow-minded, they talk about individualism, and they can't see the country and society. Therefore, the individual, the country, and society have become three incompatible objects, and various disputes have arisen.In China, self-cultivation, self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace are consistent. Individuals, countries, and society have become a unified object.Outside of heaven and earth, keep it and don't care.This kind of proposition is just enough to save the disadvantages of the West and India.

India practiced its doctrine, and the country was subjugated; the West practiced its doctrine, and World War I and World War II broke out.The facts are obvious, since this is the case, now we can only turn to Chineseism.Chineseism is the doctrine of great unity. We should promote this doctrine internationally as much as possible so that all countries in the world can walk into Chineseism together. Only then can we build the foundation of great unity and seek permanent peace.

World War I and World War II were purely "wars of force".In my country, however, there is a supreme tactic called "psychological warfare".During the Three Kingdoms period, Ma Di said: "The way to use troops is to attack the mind first, to attack the city as the bottom, to fight the heart first, and to fight the soldiers." This is the starting point of the theory of "psychological warfare", and its principle has been invented since the Warring States Period up. The book "Mencius" is purely about "psychological warfare".He said: "Those who gain the way will help more, those who lose the way will not help much, those who do not help will be close to their relatives, and those who help much will make the world obey them. The battle must be won." There are many such words.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, soldiers fought endlessly, and Sun Tzu's "Philosophy of Warfare" was born.The Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period used Sun Tzu's theory to reach the pinnacle and fight for strength and wisdom. Both were poor, so Mencius' "heart warfare philosophy" came into being.Unfortunately, no one used it at the time!The current situation is absolutely like the era of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. We should use the theory of "heart warfare".Q: How to use it?A: It is enough to carry forward Chineseism.The conditions for the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty and the subjugation of the country were met by Germany, Italy, and Japan. The people of the world and their own people are in dire straits. Once Chineseism is developed, it will surely be pleasing to the heart, and it has become a magical effect of "heart warfare".
