Chapter 220 Indian Scepter (2)
Shen Yue said: "Oh? Let me hear what you said."

Ouyang Yanyan said: "Recently, our school is planning to hold a large-scale school celebration. Our student union is responsible for theatrical performances, but people have different opinions on how to do it. Some people say that each department should rehearse the show by itself, while others say that it should Spend money to hire a professional performance team, and some people say that it is best to invite teachers to teach, and we have people. Anyway, there are all kinds of opinions, and everyone is in a mess every day. Next month is the school anniversary, and the time is coming. It’s here, it’s killing me.”

Ouyang Lin blamed: "Yanyan, don't bother Dr. Shen with such trivial matters."

Shen Yue waved his hands and said, "No, I'm very interested in this matter. Student Ouyang Yanyan, if you think it's okay, I will go to your school tomorrow and I will definitely help you solve this problem."

Ouyang Yanyan was overjoyed, and said: "Great! Tomorrow happens to be the weekend, so I'll gather people from our student union in the morning."

Ouyang Lin was a little stunned, staring blankly at Shen Yue without speaking.Shen Yue smiled and explained to him: "Our country has lagged behind Western countries for decades in the field of psychology. I hope to sow the seeds of interest in their generation."

Ouyang Lin suddenly realized, raised his glass to Shen Yue and said, "Dr. Shen, I respect you again."

After returning to the hotel, Kang Ruxin asked Shen Yue: "Do you have a way to solve the matter of the college students?"

Shen Yue smiled and said, "Isn't the matter of college students easier to solve?"

Kang Ruxin asked curiously: "Then tell me, what method are you going to take?"

Shen Yue said: "I can't tell you for now, otherwise you won't accompany me tomorrow."

Kang Ruxin was indeed not prepared to accompany him, she felt that she seemed a little redundant.But when she heard Shen Yue say this at this time, she knew that he really wanted her to go with him, and she was really curious to know how Shen Yue would handle this matter.So she smiled and said, "I want to see what new tricks you will have tomorrow."

The next morning, Ouyang Yanyan went to the hotel to have breakfast with Shen Yue and Kang Ruxin.Shen Yue thought to himself: Students like Ouyang Yanyan are different, both family environment and professional background make her more aware of etiquette.

Ouyang Yanyan asked: "Dr. Shen, I finally figured it out last night. It turned out that you finally determined the school I was in by naming each school and observing the micro expressions on my face. However, Beijing There are so many schools, if I didn’t study at the Diplomatic Academy, do you still have to keep asking?”

Shen Yue said with a smile: "Of course I considered the most likely one first. After all, your family situation is quite special, and the school you choose should also be more distinctive. University and major are very important to a person, so in Before asking, you must consider the psychological factors when you applied for the school."

Ouyang Yanyan smiled and said: "So that's the case. Dr. Shen, the students in our student union heard that you are going to our school, and they were all very happy."

Shen Yue jokingly said: "After a while, they will see that the legendary Dr. Shen is such an ordinary person, and they will definitely be disappointed."

Ouyang Yanyan looked at Kang Ruxin and said with a smile: "Of course not. When they see how beautiful Sister Kang is, they will immediately understand that a man's talent is much more important than his appearance."

Kang Ruxin couldn't help but also laughed: "Yanyan can really talk, and she will definitely become a very good diplomat in the future."

After breakfast, the three of them came to Ouyang Yanyan's school together.The Foreign Affairs University occupies a small area, but the environment is relatively quiet. Once you enter, you can feel the unique cultural atmosphere of universities.

As soon as Shen Yue appeared, the students in the student union gave warm applause.Shen Yue said to them: "Don't applaud, I'm not used to this kind of welcome. I'm a scholar, not a leader, so I prefer the way of hugging."

The students all laughed.Shen Yue said again: "Don't underestimate the matter of hugging, this way can quickly shorten the relationship between people. Why? Because human beings also have animal instincts, whether it is shaking hands or bowing, Two people will always keep a certain distance, and this distance is an instinctive defense, so only a hug is the most sincere way of showing affection. Now try it, the two people standing closest hug each other once. Come on, don't be shy. "

Shen Yue's ingenious way of meeting everyone found it very interesting. Although they felt a little awkward at the beginning, the students still followed his words.Shen Yue smiled and said: "Maybe you didn't feel that you have become much closer to each other because of this, but the hug just now has had an impact in your subconscious. Okay, everyone please sit down. Now we will start the meeting. About the cultural performance Regarding the matter, you can talk about your own opinions separately. Don’t worry about the attitude of Police Officer Kang and me, we are just attending today’s meeting and will not express any opinions.”

The chairman of the student union began to speak, and his opinion was to invite a professional performance team.He said that there will be many alumni coming back for this school celebration, and most of them are officials above the level of counselor in the embassy abroad. If the quality of the program is too poor, it will definitely have a bad influence.

Immediately the head of the Propaganda Department made a speech. He said that the alumni are all from their student days, and what they want to see is the most authentic thing from their student days, so it is best for the students to organize the programs themselves.

Next came the Minister of Arts and Culture who spoke. She suggested that outside professional teachers be invited to arrange the program, and the performance should be completed by the students of the school, so that both can be taken care of.

The following students also spoke separately.Some people say that professional performance units can be invited to perform one or two programs, so that there will be highlights; some people say that it is best to have half of them;At the beginning, everyone was patiently listening to each other's speeches, but then someone started to interrupt, and sure enough, it quickly became a mess.

At this time, Shen Yue coughed and said, "Everyone be quiet." Only then did everyone realize that Shen Yue and Kang Ruxin were still listening, and they immediately fell silent.Shen Yue looked at everyone, smiled, and said: "I'm sure, if it was normal, you would probably start arguing soon. Today everyone was quite rational at the beginning, and this is not only because of our presence , and because the hug just now also played a certain role. Don’t you think so?”

Everyone smiled embarrassedly.Shen Yue continued: "You guys will definitely not be able to solve the problem if you keep arguing like this. But I have a solution. Students, have you heard of the Indian scepter?"

Everyone was shaking their heads while looking at him curiously.Shen Yue explained: "Indians have a tradition. Everyone will have a scepter when discussing matters. This scepter represents the right to speak. Only those who get the scepter have the right to speak. And the only way to get the scepter is to repeat For the other party, when the other party thinks that you have understood what he said, he will hand over the scepter to you. If someone interrupts the other party at will, then cancel his right to speak. Now let's play this game, of course , we don’t have a real scepter.” At this point, he got up and took a broom from the corner, and continued: “Let’s use it as our scepter today. In this way, the chairman of the student union spoke first, and this scepter I'll give it to you first."

The student body president took the broom, and everyone was laughing.Shen Yue said to him: "You speak first."

The president of the student union held a broom in his hand and repeated the reason just now.After his speech, the head of the Propaganda Department raised his hand and said, "I request the floor."

The student council president nodded at him.The head of the Propaganda Department repeated what the chairman of the student union said just now, and asked, "Is that what you mean?"

The president of the student union nodded and handed the broom to him.The head of the Propaganda Department held a broom and asked, "Have you ever thought about how much it would cost to hire a professional performance troupe? Although the school has such a budget, is it necessary? And this is completely deceitful. Alumni They are all people with rich life experience, will they believe that it is the level of our students? Therefore, I insist on making arrangements by ourselves to show our truest side."

In this way, the broom was handed to those who wanted to speak one by one, and all the speakers fully stated their reasons, and no one interrupted, and everyone was rationally weighing the pros and cons.Soon, everyone made such a decision: Most of the programs will be arranged by the students themselves, and the high-quality ones will be screened out as much as possible by means of selection and elimination. At the same time, professional teachers will be invited to arrange two or three programs.

Shen Yue nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Look, isn't the problem solved?"

Ouyang Yanyan asked puzzledly: "Dr. Shen, why can the problem be solved quickly with such a method?"

Shen Yue replied: "Indians have used this method of decision-making for hundreds of years. In fact, we still use it now, but in a different way. Today we use this broom as a scepter, and units, companies It uses discipline, rationality, and full respect for the opinions of others as a scepter. Students, maybe you have always thought that psychology is a mysterious subject, but it is not the case. Psychology is used by us all the time. The problem is, we A lot of people just use it unconsciously, so the advantages of the discipline don't show up at all."

Everyone couldn't help nodding.Shen Yue continued: "Many of you may become real diplomats in the future. In foreign affairs, psychology is widely used, so I suggest that everyone pay more attention to this subject from now on. It will become a part of your future. Very important tool for success.”

Everyone applauded enthusiastically.Shen Yue smiled and said, "You can applaud at this time."

Everyone laughed.

On the second day after returning to the provincial capital, Shen Yue and Kang Ruxin went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the marriage formalities.But Shen Yue found that Kang Ruxin was a little preoccupied.Although he generally understood what Kang Ruxin was worried about, but now he tried his best not to speak out."What's the matter with you?" he asked.

Kang Ruxin said: "My mother will..."

Shen Yue comforted: "Didn't we agree that the wedding will only be held during the National Day this year. Don't worry, I will try my best to bring your mother back to reality."

Kang Ruxin was still worried, and asked, "Is it really possible?"

Shen Yue nodded and said, "Recently, I've been thinking about this issue. I think, to make her accept the reality, the only way is to let your father persuade her."

Kang Ruxin looked at him in astonishment: "How is this possible?"

Shen Yue smiled slightly and said, "Have you forgotten Yun Zhongsang's disguise technique?"

Kang Ruxin understood immediately, and asked, "Are you going to play my father?"

Shen Yue nodded and said: "Of course, it can only be me, because I am a psychologist."

Now, Kang Ruxin would no longer doubt Shen Yue's ability. Hearing what he said at this moment, she suddenly felt hopeful in her heart.

The two went to buy some wedding candy, but when they came to Kant 28, they found that it was very noisy inside.After Shen Yue asked, he realized that they were arguing about the personnel arrangement entrusted by a company.

The company needs a vice president, and there are currently two candidates for selection, one is a Ph.D. returned from overseas, and the other is a master's graduate from Peking University, who has rich management experience.

Kang Ruxin asked Shen Yue in a low voice: "Are you planning to use the Indian scepter again?"

Shen Yue shook his head and said: "We don't need it here, I hope they can argue freely like this. They are all geniuses, and they need this kind of free atmosphere, and the debate can make them collide with sparks of wisdom." Immediately, Shen Yue asked Hou Xiaojun: "You What's your opinion? Why?"

Hou Xiaojun said: "I think this person who came back from overseas is more suitable. What this company needs is a vice president. High education and experience of studying abroad can be a business card of the company, and this person is very important to the future of the company. Overseas business expansion will also play a role. The other person’s conditions are obviously much worse, and he has changed jobs more than once, so I don’t think he is suitable.”

Shen Yue asked Kuang Wuwei: "What's your opinion?"

Kuang Wuwei said: "I think work experience is much more important than academic qualifications. This company entrusts us with personnel arrangements, which in itself shows that people attach importance to this position. Now that many people change jobs, he never There have been acts of selling company secrets, and I don’t think this question should be used as a standard to measure a person.”

Peng Zhuang said: "I think the person who graduated from Peking University is more handsome, and the corporate image is also very important, isn't it?"

Shen Yue couldn't help laughing, and asked Zeng Yingjie, "What do you think?"

Zeng Yingjie said: "Although the person who graduated from Peking University is very good, I think there are some problems with his conduct. I have noticed that every time he changes jobs, he goes for the salary."

After listening to everyone's opinions, Shen Yue nodded and said: "I know what everyone thinks. Well, let me tell you a story first. The famous Danish medical scientist and Nobel Prize winner Finsen wanted to train a successor in his later years. Among the many candidates, Finsen chose a young doctor named Harry. But Finsen was worried that this young man would not be able to persist in the very boring medical research, so Finsen's assistant, George, suggested that one of Finsen's friends pretend to be Hire Harry with a high salary to see if he will be tempted.

Finsen, however, rejected George's proposal.He said: Don't look down on others from a high moral point, and never test human nature.Harry was born in a slum, how could he not have a desire for money?If we have to set him up with a difficult test, on the one hand, give him an easy high-paying job, but on the other hand expect him to choose to refuse, this requires that he must be a saint.Eventually, Harry became Finson's protégé.Years later, Harry became an outstanding medical scientist.When he heard about Finsen's refusal to test his own humanity, he said with tears in his eyes: If my mentor used huge benefits as bait to evaluate my personality, I would definitely fall into that trap, because at that time My mother was sick and in need of medical treatment, and my younger siblings were waiting for me to send them to school.If that was the case, I would not be able to achieve what I am doing now.After listening to this story, you should know how to choose, right? "

Hou Xiaojun seemed to understand, and said: "If you don't consider the factor of job-hopping, I will choose this person who graduated from Peking University."

Zeng Yingjie hesitated and said, "But..."

Shen Yue said sternly: "Please remember two points: first, we are helping the company select the person with the strongest ability, and loyalty is an emotion and a mutual relationship, so the issue of loyalty requires The enterprise cultivates itself; secondly, this is especially important, that is, human nature cannot stand the test.”
