The reason why Gu Kun gave this example to Zhu Youdong is of course because he has a deep understanding of the original sin of media in the Internet era.
Gu Kun is not omniscient and omnipotent, so he only does things that he is professional and understands. He cannot be like the protagonists of those invincible rebirth novels who know everything and seize every opportunity to make a fortune.
He was able to catch the financial crisis because he is a Chinese from Southeast Asia. He was deeply affected by it in his previous life and carefully observed and reviewed it.
He knows a little bit about the Internet because he managed a resort in his previous life and was barely considered a tourist attraction operator. He was also a person who "wanted to create an Internet celebrity attraction but failed, so he couldn't help but analyze it frequently when he was free."
Operators of other Internet celebrity attractions that have successfully cultivated media hype logic.
In other words, Gu Kun's knowledge of most industries on the Internet in his previous life was that of an ordinary middle-class small business owner in 2010.
So if you expect him to be omniscient and omnipotent after being reborn, it is impossible to catch up with the Internet entrepreneurship boom and make a huge sum of money. It is impossible to be an investor like Sun Zheng, give money and let the entrepreneurs he invests to develop on their own.
It's somewhat possible.
However, if you ask him “How did the Dubai model in later generations use the Internet media to exaggerate the evil of human nature?”
How does the Semporna Cebu Island take full advantage of the media rules of the Internet celebrity economy?" Gu Kun can definitely answer this.
This is what he did in his previous life.
The part he knows best about the Internet is hype, and the part he knows best about the evils of new media is also hype.
Including Shock Department, Rhythm Dog...
In addition, he had recently encountered the misdeeds of Kong Shangzhong and a small group of other failed real estate speculators, as well as his understanding of the future economic development history of Hong Kong, so he was so vigilant.
However, Zhu Youdong failed to get the risks mentioned by Gu Kun in the first time. This is not surprising, because Zhu Youdong does not understand the logic of the Internet very well.
It's only the second half of 1998, and you can't ask an old man to have a thorough understanding of the problems that the development of new things will bring.
After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask Gu Kun: "Xian son-in-law, I remember that this is not the first time you mentioned these aspects. Why do you look down on those who committed suicide so much? After all, we are Chinese traditions and pay attention to
The deceased is the most important."
Gu Kun felt that it was necessary for him to clarify the scope of his attack, so he did not hesitate to analyze it carefully with Zhu Youdong: "Your Highness, I have never objected to the death of the deceased. I was just giving an example. What I objected to was the supremacy of public opinion and hype like Oceania and Budog.
The value and legislative outlook of “doing whatever it takes”.
Obviously, in those countries, public opinion, including public opinion that sacrifices lives, is also a profit-making tool for the financial media dog interest groups. Because finance is the most complete virtual economy, in the future, finance is to build confidence, but confidence has long been gone.
It's a pure free market economy.
Keynes has noticed that he has been successful for so many years. The country of Oceania and Brittany also has macro-control and national stimulus. It’s just that they say one thing and do another every day, and they talk about their free market and are embarrassed to admit it. And here.
Under such circumstances, if public opinion is allowed to report on everything and hype everything, the country's regulatory policies are likely to be hijacked.
Finally, this does not mean that "public opinion supervision" makes economic loosening and tightening policies more "democratic", but whoever has the loudest voice is in charge, and whoever controls the media is in charge.
Today, due to the stock market crash, the big boss speculators behind the scenes can arrange for a few greedy middle-class pawns who have speculated and lost money to be completely bankrupt to line up and jump off a building to set the pace. Does that mean that the authorities should consider whether to rescue the market and whether to cut interest rates?
Tomorrow, as land supply is liberalized and house prices begin to fall, several speculators who were originally overleveraged and used financial instruments too extensively will die. Will they also be able to fail in real estate speculation and jump off the building to overwhelm public opinion? In the final analysis, the financial market
No matter how long or short the market is, there is no justice. There is no reason to be long or short. Originally, the law of nature should be short, and maybe one operation of the Oceanic Fed will delay it.
In this case, anyone who loses in speculation, even if they want to die, should die silently, that is only fair. Otherwise, whoever controls the evil forces and the media will have a greater say in coercing the economic regulation department
Guide the investment atmosphere in a direction that is conducive to them."
Zhu Youdong was a little joking at first and felt that Gu Kun was exaggerating and alarmist. However, the further he went on, the more he felt that Gu Kun had a point.
Especially since the Southeast Asian financial crisis has just passed, he has witnessed with his own eyes the number of means used by all parties to set the pace during this process.
Is there such a thing as a "natural law" in finance? No matter how loud your voice is, who can make more people believe in them? This kind of only-centered confidence determines most of the wins and losses and the truth.
This was not said by Gu Kun, but by a certain Oceania scholar, Benedict Anderson. The old man was still alive in 1998 and was still teaching at Cornell University.
"A country is just an imaginary community." There are so many inevitabilities in the world, and finance is a community of confidence. The most extreme case is the Ponzi spread.
Zhu Youdong was silent for a while, and his expression became very solemn: "Then what do you think, how to deal with this series of problems in the future? Just learn from China's media management, suicide will not be reported? Don't give people the right to life in exchange for the right to speculate.
Just redeem the window opportunity?"
Gu Kun nodded, and then added: "This is only one aspect, but it is not enough. To prevent Lanfang's financial future from being hijacked by powerful groups like other financial centers, we still have a lot to do."
Simply relying on simple supervision regulations will not stop those who are looking for hype from changing their tricks.
For example, a 2017 philosophy book "Prosperity Mode Battle Royale" predicts a way of seeking fame that will appear in 2044: In future generations of YOUTUBE, content that directly jumps off a building to seek fame will be blocked.
, so the UP owner did not dare to jump off the building blatantly, but pretended to be an extreme sports enthusiast from the "Red Bull Expendables" and spread an air mattress under the building. But when jumping
Some readers may think this example is too absurd, but in fact it is still too conservative.
Because there is no need to wait until 2044, just at the end of 2019, people who have learned this trick have already appeared on YouTube - a successful performance is a must, how can there be as many people watching as when the performance fails and someone is killed? Then those who originally wanted to
Those who jumped off the building were all pretending to be bungee jumping from a high platform, but accidentally the rope was not tied properly.
It’s not just on YouTube, it’s also spreading to Chinese-owned TikTok.
It can only be said that after the media dog's propaganda evil has been discovered to the extreme, all kinds of new tricks to disguise suicide as something different than suicide are endless and cannot be controlled in terms of means.
It is even more unimaginable that the combination of media evil and financial evil could give birth to the most perverted flowers of evil in human history.
Especially in Oceania, these two industries are representatives of the control of the Gold Flash tribe.
Gu Kun wants to ensure that Lan Fang is not infected by this evil. He cannot just treat the symptoms, but must treat the root cause. He must be banned from the criminal law level and cannot rely on a few media enterprise management regulations.
"Therefore, I say that our laws in Lanzhou must strengthen the fence from the root and not give the evil trends of Oceania a chance to come in.
In fact, suicide is a crime of intentional homicide, and there is nothing to clean up. The provisions are clearly written, so the murderer himself is not considered a "person"? Usually, judicial practice does not care about it. Firstly, the criminal law only covers living people.
If the perpetrator dies, the case will be dismissed. But if the perpetrator does not die, the crime is not serious. In addition, the injury is considered to be a punishment, so the matter will be ignored.
However, in the future, this kind of thing may go along with the pace of Internet hype and the media, and we must not tolerate it. If the death is successful, then that’s it. We will still withdraw the case in accordance with the spirit of the rule of law. However, the work of disinfection after withdrawing the case is still
What we need to do is to ensure that no one can gain fame and profit from this, including getting additional media exposure benefits. If any news organizations report these things, they must be triggered in accordance with the industry management regulations in accordance with the law. This can also prevent more people from being deceived by the benefits involved.
Seduction.”
China strictly prohibits the media from reporting on the deaths in this area. In fact, it was only after the Foxconn jump in later generations, about 2008. Gu Kun’s suggestion now is definitely advanced and advanced.
Many people at Foxconn who work like zombies and work mechanically and blindly are actually not physically abused or under high pressure, and their money is okay. They just find life unexciting and simple, and they can see the end at a glance.
Then the media coaxed them together, which actually inspired those people's fantasy that "we can also make history and become a part of history."
"That makes sense. We should indeed say hello to all future media in Lanzhou in advance, so as not to leave any room for speculation and arbitrage." Zhu Youdong nodded in agreement, and then asked, "What about those who have failed?"
Gu Kun: "For those who have not succeeded, we have to distinguish between situations. One is to stop without causing social impact. That is called 'crime suspension', and it is a suspension without causing social harm. We must also pay attention to human nature,
Forget this kind of people, there will be no punishment at all.
However, if the suspended offender actually has other agendas, such as pretending to jump to gain social attention, or even threatening to exchange certain conditions, then he must be severely punished, and he must be scandalized at the beginning during legal education, and this provision must be made public.
This should be put into the minds of the people of Lanzhou to serve as a warning to others. Those who disrupt social order, even if they are not held criminally responsible, will still be detained and fined, and will be punished according to the administrative penalties for endangering public security management.
As for those who have already committed the crime but did not die or were injured, then there is no need to say that it is an attempted intentional homicide. The attempted intentional homicide should be sentenced as it should be, and don’t attract anyone’s attention or publicity.
fantasy space.
Even those who deliberately openly want to die from the beginning and have a clear motive in exchange for traffic. Once they really do it in public, and the motive is very clear and there is no doubt that they are guilty, then the on-site police officers can still use the 'emergency avoidance' method to
The principle is to shoot the criminal to death.
If you think about it this way, if he succeeded in killing him with his own hands, then the crime of intentional homicide has been completed and he can be shot. Not only will the murderer die, but he will also damage another legal interest, which is disturbing public order.
It's a waste of people's attention flow.
When the police killed these criminals with clear motives, they only killed a person who would have died, but public order was protected. This is completely in line with the legal definition of "emergency avoidance": in order to benefit the country and the public interest,
If the person, property and other rights of himself or others are protected from ongoing dangers and he has no choice but to take actions that damage the legitimate rights and interests of another smaller person, thereby causing damage, he shall not be held criminally responsible."
In any case, no matter how you choose which person will die, the former will harm less social and public order, which is of course "unavoidable harm to minor legitimate rights and interests."
Gu Kun's general principle is not to give anyone any room to use illegal means to obtain traffic dividends.
The era of comprehensive Internet media is coming soon.
All old human laws will be tested by the new natural law of "clicks are the last word, and being sprayed also creates GDP".
Gu Kun must help Lan Fang prepare and kill all the shocked people who have not yet appeared.
This is just the beginning of a long confrontation.
——
(PS: The above statement is actually not quite right. Strictly speaking, it should be because of the non-criminal reason of 'no possibility of expectation', rather than 'emergency avoidance'. But because Zhu Youdong is not a legal expert, Gu Kun also
No, in order to facilitate communication and make both parties understand, we just say it is emergency avoidance. Book friends who are not interested in jurisprudence do not need to read the following explanation.
For details on the principle, please refer to the question on the Judicial Examination that year in which 98% of the candidates answered incorrectly and chose "Emergency Evacuation". The question asked a passenger to kill another passenger during a hijacking. If he did not kill another passenger, the plane would be blown up. The passenger was asked if he would do it.
What does it count? That should be regarded as 'no possibility of expectation'. Those who chose the wrong choice all chose 'emergency avoidance'.
Because emergency evacuation must "sacrifice another" legal interest, and cannot be an inclusive relationship. If the hijacker blows up the plane, everyone will die, including the hostage who is about to be killed first, so no matter whether the shooter or the passenger fires, he will be shot.
The passenger is already dead, so this is not 'another sacrifice'. Unless he is allowed to kill other people on the tarmac in a safe position in exchange for the immortality of the other passengers on the plane, then it is possible to discuss emergency evacuation.
In the same way, in this legal proposition, when the live broadcaster reaches the last step of the current link, and through objective medicine and other science, it can be confirmed that he will not survive the blow of this method. So no matter whether the regulator takes action to sanction
, everyone in the live broadcast will die, it is nothing more than an additional loss of public order after the sanctions, so it is also an inclusive relationship, not 'another' legal interest, and cannot be regarded as an 'emergency avoidance' but a 'no possibility of expectation'.
Of course, it is difficult to implement in reality, mainly because it is difficult to quickly and scientifically judge at a critical moment whether the opponent's attack method will lead to death.)
