Returning to our daily lives, there are even more lively scenes. I still remember Zhang Leping's painting of San Mao looking for a lost needle on the ground, and a large number of people gathered around to see what was going on, first one or two, and finally one
Large crowds; when you walk in the streets and alleys of the city, wherever there are quarrels between neighbors or theft, there must be crowds of people watching. Even if gangsters commit crimes or thieves do things, those who should watch will still watch. It is not difficult to see, "
"Watching the excitement" is also a reflection of morality and social customs.
With all these things going on, we can’t help but ask, why do Chinese people love to watch the excitement? I think there may be some reasons like this:
First, the living space of each of us is not large. This space is first of all physical, and secondly psychological. Imagine a country with a vast land and sparse population. There are only a few houses for three or four kilometers, and it will not be lively even if it wants to. Space One
When I was little, I wanted to squeeze people into my pants when I went out on the street. If you didn’t want to care about other people’s affairs, they would creep into your ears. Over time, you became keen to inquire about them;
Secondly, in a sense, this is determined by national character. We are all accustomed to belonging to a "unit" and have a habit of being "managed" in our bones. We can not ask people's names when meeting them, but we must ask about our units.
, even if no one cares about me for a day, I feel empty. Over time, I have developed a habit of waiting for arrangements, and my independent thinking and actions have become much less. I feel that there is someone to take care of everything, and what happens to others is also taken care of. I only need to
Just take a look. Therefore, the Chinese people do not watch the excitement to conduct social surveys, nor to help solve conflicts, but simply to "watch", which is called "watching the fire from the other side";
Third, there is a lack of respect for individual dignity in traditional ethics. The essence of spectatorship is that the onlookers erode the dignity of the bystanders, which is a wider exposure of privacy. Even a death row prisoner should have the right to spend the last moment of his life
As a human being, we should treat ordinary people in society with dignity.
As people who work in the municipal government office building, they should not be here to watch the excitement. Instead, they should take the initiative to persuade those outside to leave. But they did not. They had a completely indifferent attitude and just watched here.
It's just fun. It's precisely because of this that I feel rude to these people.
I walked out of the city hall building and saw a large, noisy crowd in front of me...
Outside the city government office building, there was a dense crowd of people. They gathered in groups of three and four outside the government building. They didn't notice me at all when I went out.
Looking at the situation in front of me, I was secretly worried. In fact, it would be better if these people were organized. With such chaos, it is likely that each of them has a different idea, which would make it more difficult to do the work.
.
I turned sideways and said to secretary Xiao Xu: "Go and bring me a stool. Hurry up."
He looked at me doubtfully, but ran in quickly. After a while, he brought a wooden bench over. I frowned, but I immediately stood on the wooden bench.
When I stood on the wooden bench, the people in front of me noticed me. They looked at me immediately, and then some people started talking, "Is this Mayor Feng?"
I smiled at them, and then I scanned the dark crowd in front of me. The open space outside the city hall was full of people, and I suddenly realized that I was missing a tool. At this moment, Secretary Xiao Xu came
A hand-held speaker was brought to me. I gave him an approving look and then turned on the music on the hand-held speaker... Everyone immediately looked at me standing on the wooden bench.
I began to speak to these people, "Comrade workers, I am Feng Xiao, the acting mayor of Shangjiang City. I know that there must be compelling reasons for everyone to come to the city government to report problems. I am also very willing to talk to comrades workers.
Let's have a good exchange of opinions together.
But there are too many people in such a place, and it is not convenient for us to sit down and talk calmly, so I kindly ask everyone to elect ten to twenty representatives, and let these representatives you elect come and talk with me. Is that okay?"
At this time someone said, "Let's talk here!"
Immediately, someone joined in. There was chaos again in front of me, and there was a lot of noise. I looked at the people below in such a mess, and about a minute later I started shouting again, "Please be quiet, everyone, please be quiet."
!Look at this situation, how can we talk about things? Therefore, I hope that everyone will elect representatives and elect representatives you can trust to talk to us. This is the best way to solve the problem."
Some people are still shouting, "No, we can only do it here. No one can represent us all."
I couldn't see clearly where the sound came from. It was impossible to clearly understand the source of the sound among the noisy crowd, and there were many people echoing it. I suddenly realized that I couldn't continue like this in a place like this.
If it continues like this, the situation will probably get out of control, and it will also affect my prestige.
I immediately started shouting again, "Comrade workers, please be quiet. I say again, I come to communicate with you with one hundred percent sincerity, but we can't talk at all in a place like this."
The office of our city government cannot accommodate so many people, so I hope everyone will follow my suggestion and elect someone you trust to discuss all issues with us. The purpose of our city government and all comrades workers is the same, which is to solve
question.
So we all need to be more rational. Let’s discuss who is suitable to be introduced first. Now that our conference room has been opened, I will go in first and wait for the representatives you have introduced to come in.”
Immediately, I stepped off the wooden bench and entered the government building directly. As I entered the government building, the crowd was silent. But when I entered, I heard the noise outside again.
stand up.
I didn't stop and continued walking inside. Then I saw Mayor Wu, who was smiling bitterly at me. I said to him: "Let's go to my office first." Then I walked directly upstairs.
.
I don't want to talk too much to him in a place like this.
After arriving at my office, I immediately asked him: "Mayor Wu, how do you think this matter should be handled?" (To be continued)
