0084 Situation and advantages
After severely criticizing Liu Bei, who wanted to use words to be his backstage without a backstage, Dang Paiguo saw that he was really excited, put down his little thoughts, then turned the topic back and began to seriously analyze the current campaign situation for him.
"If you want to get first place in a race, your opponent can be faster than us, and you can also make anyone except him run slower than him, so that even if he is absolutely slow, he can win. This does violate the fairness of sports, but since they have the ability to hinder this fairness and will not be punished, it means that their behavior is in line with a greater fairness than sports competitions - this circle, society, and the fairness of the world.
Now that you can clearly understand this, the next thing will be easier to talk about.
Although I also said in the election rules that it is not allowed to use external forces to influence the election process and results of the Central University, after all, the students of Central University do not just live on campus like Central University. They are also the people of the Han Dynasty.
Then even if I have the ability to focus on everyone and prevent everyone from borrowing even a little external power, those students with strong family backgrounds outside the school will not be able to exclude the "momentum" outside the school.
Because of this kind of background, even if they themselves do not want to, others will fully consider this when communicating with them in daily voting and elections. Although secret voting can reduce this impact, it cannot eliminate this impact.
So in order to avoid this situation, I have privately banned Liu Bian from participating in the election - although he himself has no intention of participating in the election, there are no other people who would want him to participate. If Liu Bian, who is the prince, also participates, even if it is a secret ballot, there may be many people who vote for him just because of his "power" outside the school.
If Liu Bian gets too few votes and other candidates get much more votes, then the emperor's face is not good-looking. Moreover, even if it is a secret ballot, just by analyzing the relationship between each other, you can probably know who can vote for whom. Just because Liu Bian gets too few votes means that most people have not given Liu Bian face or the emperor's face.
Although I don’t want this to happen, personally, I don’t actually object to this happening. Because our election is not a game, there is no need to set so many rules and regulations that are not in line with reality. Since there is such an advantage, how to use this advantage as smart as possible without violating the rules and enable yourself to gain the best interests is also reflected in the level of talent. However, Liu Bian’s identity as a prince is too special and sensitive, so it must be forbidden.
But - as a competitor to these students with both background and talent, our current problem is that you have suffered a loss from the beginning and cannot allow most people to vote for you, a person who has no reputation and does not understand; and they do not have the ability to use external challenges to prevent other candidates from participating in the election.
In that case, we can only consider now, what exactly can you beat others? How should we play to this advantage?
If there is nothing, we will never be able to turn defeat into victory in such a 'fair competition' or even at a disadvantage, right?"
Dang Patriotic put his hands crossed and his fingers on the table, and briefly analyzed the situation Liu Bei was facing now. Then he leaned forward, pressed his crossed hands against his mouth, and supported his elbows on the table, forming a solid triangle to support his upper body. If the light is more shadowy and he put on his glasses and left a beard, then he would highly restore a famous scene.
Liu Bei felt a little embarrassed when he saw the Party President telling him to think about it with his eyes and then express his opinion. Because the Party President asked him to analyze what advantages he had, instead of reflecting on what his problems he had. This always makes people feel like "Wang Po sells melons and boasts himself", and he will definitely feel quite awkward in his heart anyway.
In traditional concepts, "humility" is a very important quality. To this day, even polite words like "the young generation is unworthy" and "not talented in the underworld" can be regarded as a manifestation of hypocrisy, have been accepted by people for granted as a manifestation of modesty.
However, if you refuse to face yourself like this, you will naturally not be able to see yourself clearly. Even if everyone is very humble and polite and defame yourself as worthless, no one takes this seriously. Instead, they all regard it very highly in their hearts. The so-called "no first in literature, no second in martial arts" and "literati have always been neglected since ancient times." At this time, this humility is not only no longer a good moral character, but has become a bad habit.
Although Liu Bei habitually wanted to be modest, he knew that the question from the Party President was not to hear his answers that belittled him. So he tried hard to analyze his strengths and advantages for the first time. After a while, he hesitated a little unnaturally: "He is skilled in preparing bows and horses... He is generous by nature, generous and good at making friends with heroic people... He can be humble and respectful to others... He is kind and generous... He is loyal, loyal and kind..."
The Party and Patriotic Republic of China discovered an interesting phenomenon. Although Liu Bei could already talk to him smoothly in "modern vernacular", when he was excited or nervous, he would change back to the "ancient vernacular" way he used to. This is just like some people who usually speak Mandarin, but when their emotions change drastically, they would unconsciously change their hometown dialect.
At this time, Liu Bei stuttered and praised himself in front of everyone, and there was nothing to say. It seemed that it was easy to know others correctly, but it was difficult to know yourself correctly - even if it was a "gentleman who cared about himself three times a day", it was just constantly recognizing his own shortcomings and correcting them, but he never thought of knowing his own strengths.
It seems that there is only so much that Liu Bei can think of, and the Party and the country no longer waste time forcing him to think about it. Even though Liu Bei is very sensible, he must have a clear and comprehensive understanding of his own advantages when he was still young.
However, it seems that when we talk about social sciences in the future, it is necessary to put forward the point of correct understanding of ourselves separately. The sentence "He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise" has been written in the "Tao Te Ching". We cannot let this precious knowledge be hidden in the book and sleep.
This is the advantage of scientific knowledge over personal experience. The life experience that an individual only concludes after hitting a wall is something that others can understand as long as they study it carefully in books, thereby avoiding the situation of shaking themselves all over. A person’s experience and wisdom are always limited, and bringing together all of his experience and wisdom is the fundamental reason why humans constantly create one "miracle" after another.
"It is difficult to know what level your abilities have reached in society in this analysis method, so naturally it is impossible to accurately locate yourself. Although many abilities are difficult to accurately compare, they can still judge who has stronger abilities through the results they produce.
For example, your rendering ability is very outstanding. When you chat with others, you are better at mobilizing other people's emotions. Then if everyone uses the same content to speak, it should be more touching to say it from you than to say it from others.
So even if you, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two brothers, form a closed small group, invisibly blocking the others as ‘outsiders’ from the closest circle, they will still form a slightly farther but closer interpersonal network on the periphery. Without this kind of reliance, I believe you would not be able to say what you want to run for chairman just by impulse.”
The Party’s patriotic analysis made Liu Bei nod in his heart, but because the other party was saying his own good words, he could not take the initiative to agree in order to be "humility", so he could only smile with him "hehehehehe".
"Your power of rendering, that is, personal charm, is the core of all your abilities and the most advantageous thing you have. It is a very abstract concept, which is actually composed of many aspects such as generous nature, humbleness, respect for people, kindness and kindness, loyalty, kindness and kindness.
Compared with charm, your command, force, intelligence, and politics may not be low, but compared with others, you don’t have much advantage. Most of the competition is very suitable for Tian Ji’s horse racing strategy: the following horses are against the upper horses, the above horses are against the middle horses, and the middle horses are against the lower horses. Even the same is true for wars. Always maintain local advantages and always use strong to attack the weak within a certain range, so you can defeat the strong with weak.
So what we have to do is to give full play to your charm to achieve the best results. Fortunately, charm can be said to be the most important ability for leaders, and it is also one of the abilities that can play the most political role. Especially for democratic campaigns like this, charm can even play a decisive role.
——Of course, you can’t be too optimistic. After all, the total number of people at Central University has just exceeded 100, and many of them are famous scholars from all over the world, and they still have more or less relationships with each other.
