During the 2008 financial crisis, among the top ten best-selling books in the United States, five were about financial management and investment, three were about financial knowledge, one was about the survival rules of Goldman Sachs, and one was about how women manage money.
Until 1939, the United States had not completely recovered from the Great Depression. Zhou Hexuan's new book clearly captured the readers' g-spot.
Selling like crazy!
The sales volume reached 8,000 copies on the first day, and the word-of-mouth boom started in the second week after its release. It sold like crazy for more than two months with a daily sales volume of 15,000 copies. The cumulative sales in the first three months directly exceeded the 1 million copy mark.
Based on a price of US$4 per volume, Zhou Hexuan’s personal royalties plus the publishing company’s dividends, this book brought him more than US$1.7 million in after-tax net profit within three months. Of course, the publishing company’s profit was the bulk, pure
The income from manuscript fees is less than 400,000 US dollars (the tax on professional writers in the United States is too harsh), so I still have to be my own boss.
The profit from this book is continuous and it can be sold for at least several decades. Every time it is reprinted, Zhou Hexuan can make a fortune.
I wonder if it can catch up with "Human Weakness". That book has sold more than 90 million copies, and the pure royalties can make Carnegie a rich man.
The New York Times, controlled by a Jewish consortium, immediately stood up and praised, saying: "Success is so simple. As long as you follow the Jewish classic Talmud and the guidance of Mr. Zhou Hexuan, you can reap the huge rewards you dream of."
wealth."
CBS also lost no time in inviting some investment experts from Wall Street to crazily promote Jewish business and social wisdom around the Talmud. To put it bluntly, it wanted to whitewash the Jews, praise Zhou Hexuan's erudition, and then read this book
Sales of Chicken Soup books increased.
The propaganda effect is obvious. While the books are selling like crazy, the American people have begun to agree with the Jewish philosophy of money, at least they no longer regard the Jews as pure vampires.
…
April arrived in the blink of an eye.
The U.S. Congress officially discussed the proposal to repeal the Chinese Exclusion Act. Although most congressmen were opposed to it, fortunately, they did not directly deny it and continued to hold meetings to discuss how to change it.
Just as Zhou Hexuan said to Roosevelt that day, the Chinese Exclusion Act is rooted in racism, and racism is now notorious, and its continued implementation will be harmful to the image of the United States.
Moreover, the tendency of the United States to aid China is becoming more and more obvious. The Chinese Exclusion Act is also an obstacle. It is only a matter of time when it will be abolished.
This proposal was discussed for three months, and the U.S. government finally officially announced the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. However, provisions that discriminate against Chinese still exist, such as the annual Chinese immigration limit of 105 people, which is equivalent to a disguised version of the Chinese Exclusion Act.
It exists, it just sounds nicer to say.
However, this is enough to excite the overseas Chinese in the United States. They finally have legal "equal" status, and many illegal Chinese immigrants have automatically obtained U.S. citizenship on the condition that they have lived for a certain period of time and have a stable income.
This was impossible before. The provisions of the "Chinese Exclusion Act" that were added many times in a row have almost completely blocked the way for Chinese people to obtain American citizenship.
Just when Zhou Hexuan was about to return to China, Feng Yong came to New York with a copy of "Why Talmudic Jews Become Monopoly" and said with a smile: "Mingcheng, I didn't expect that you are actually an expert in business.
"
"It's just a trick to fool people, do you believe it?" Zhou Hexuan said happily.
Feng Yong flipped through the book casually and said: "It actually makes sense. If I had read this book 20 years ago, I would have gone into business directly."
Chicken soup for the soul is also chicken soup, and it must be nutritious, otherwise it would not have been popular for so many years. For example, persuading people to study more, persuading people to strengthen their resolve, persuading people to be confident and self-reliant, persuading people to face difficulties, etc. Aren't these useless? Of course they are.
!
When people are frustrated and depressed, if they can drink ten thousand chicken soup, they can be revived to their full state even if they can't.
But don’t drink too much of this stuff. Just pick two classic books on success and read them thoroughly, and carefully understand and implement them. Holding on to success all day long is self-deception, and you will only get farther and farther away from success.
The science of success has nothing to do with the Jewish Talmud. These principles can be found in the "Book of Changes". "Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement."
Words can guide life.
If you still want to study in depth, just go and learn Wang Yangming's "Xin Xue" to ensure that you gain more about the way to success.
"Yangming Xinxue" is not empty talk, nor is it idealism. It is a very profound science of success. As long as you truly understand the essence of Xinxue and implement it conscientiously, you will definitely be able to succeed. Those who will not succeed will have insufficient IQ.
, or you are too unlucky.
After Wang Yangming's death, psychology was divided into several schools, each with very different explanations, but none of them could escape the four words "unity of knowledge and action."
"Knowledge" is not simply knowledge, and "to have conscience" is not to keep one's conscience in the popular sense. It is divided into two aspects, namely, internal understanding of one's own character and pursuits, and external understanding of the people and things one faces.
Being able to accurately understand yourself, others, and all things is "to have a conscience." This so-called accurate understanding is different for everyone, because everyone's character and pursuit, as well as the environment they face, are different.
same.
Once you have "conscience", you have to do it. This is called "action".
"Practice" also requires attention to methods and methods. It is certain that you will persevere, but sometimes you will make mistakes, and you need to constantly adjust your "conscience."
Combining "knowledge" and "action", using theory to guide practice, using practice to verify theory, constantly making correct adjustments in the face of failure, and keeping the original intention never wavering, this is the "unity of knowledge and action", which is Wang Yangming's "
"Mind learning" is also the core of any successful learning.
It is easy to understand, but very difficult to do. If you can do it completely, you are a saint.
This thing can't teach experience, because everyone is different. People with hot tempers and calm personalities have different ways of dealing with the same thing. Wang Yangming did not require the disciples of Xinxue to be calm and down-to-earth like the general success studies.
, but to make the most reasonable response based on your own situation.
Sometimes, a hot-tempered personality can achieve success, while a calm personality can lead to hesitation and missed opportunities.
In Zhou Hexuan's view, Wang Yangming is a master of success studies. Regardless of Japan in the era of civil reform or China during the National Government, mind study is the mainstream thought of the governments of both countries, and Chiang Kai-shek is a complete follower of Wang Yangming's success studies.
.
Feng Yong chatted with Zhou Hexuan for a while and suddenly said: "I will return to China next week."
"Let's go together." Zhou Hexuan smiled.
After a whole year of delay, the aircraft problem was finally solved.
The U.S. government promised Zhou Hexuan to transport the plane to China, but in order to prevent Japan from overreacting, it had to go around the Soviet Union first. In other words, the plane was sold to the Soviet Union first, and then the Soviet Union sold the plane to China.
Japan has no reason to cause trouble to the United States.
Zhou Hexuan has already contacted the Soviet ambassador to the United States. Not only does he want to transport his aircraft back to the United States, but he also wants to buy more than 30 of them in the Soviet Union to form two complete squadrons.
Of course, the money was all provided by Zhou Hexuan, and the money earned from the Success School was enough.
