"The Crowd" is a social psychology work written by French social psychologist Gustave Le Bon. In the book, Le Bon elaborates on the characteristics of groups and group psychology, and points out that when an individual is an isolated individual,
He has his own distinct individual characteristics, and when this person integrates into the group, all his personality will be submerged by the group, and his thoughts will immediately be replaced by the group's thoughts.
And when a group exists, the role of individual rationality will be hopelessly futile. It's like everyone is drunk and I am alone. The person who is awake is often regarded as an alien by the drunk group, but is considered to be an alien.
The drunk one.
This book was brought from Zuoqiu. During this period of time, in the bar, when nothing happened, Lu Shanmin would read two books that Zuoqiu admired very much, one was "Chuan Xi Lu" and the other was
The book "The Crowd" in my hand is one about local Chinese philosophy and the other about modern Western psychology. The former tells how to carry out inner self-cultivation and self-exploration of one's own potential, emphasizing that the heart is the universe. The latter is exactly the same.
On the contrary, it discusses that as a human being in a group, individuals blindly follow the herd, and the insignificance of individual self-awareness in the group.
Lu Shanmin was shocked to see two completely different perspectives describing the relationship between people and society. With his limited social experience, he was unable to effectively integrate and unify the two. Lu Shanmin even suspected that Zuo Qiu deliberately used these two books.
Books confuse your mind.
Zhou Tong knocked on the office door.
"Brother Shanmin, I didn't disturb you."
Lu Shanmin shook his head, "What's the matter?"
"Hu Ming is coming".
Lu Shanmin looked at the clock hanging on the wall and frowned, "He's an hour late."
Zhou Tong nodded, with a look of helplessness on his face, "Brother Shanmin, if he does this often in the future, how will I be able to lead my people in the future? It's not easy to learn well, and it only takes a minute to learn bad."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "How did you deal with latecomers in the past?"
"Of course, he will be scolded first, and in severe cases, he will be kicked a few times, and then his salary will be deducted. If this unhealthy trend is not dealt with, how will he be able to manage other people in the future?"
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Since you know how to do it, why are you looking so embarrassed?"
Zhou Tong looked aggrieved and said, "Brother Shanmin, he is the boss's son after all."
Lu Shanmin shook his head, "Didn't I tell you last time, if he doesn't obey you, you'll beat him until he obeys."
Zhou Tong still looked embarrassed, "Brother Shanmin, I said so, but,,,".
Lu Shanmin closed the book and said, "Go and call him in."
Hu Ming walked into Lu Shanmin's office tremblingly. He was no longer as arrogant and domineering as he was yesterday. He was fighting with those gangsters in school and could not be compared to someone like Lu Shanmin who had experienced life and death.
Before Lu Shanmin could speak, Hu Ming consciously said, "There's a bit of a traffic jam today."
Lu Shanmin stood up and walked slowly towards Hu Ming.
Hu Ming stepped back unconsciously. The pain all over his body had not completely dissipated yet. He asked tremblingly: "Lu Shanmin, what do you want to do?"
Bang, Lu Shanmin raised his foot and kicked Hu Ming down on the sofa.
Zhou Tong on the side looked at the scene in front of him blankly. This was the boss's son, and he was kicked over without saying a word. Although he already knew that Lu Shanmin beat Hu Ming yesterday, he didn't see it with his own eyes after all.
.
Zhou Tong knew Lu Shanmin relatively well. He was usually approachable to everyone and was not an unkind person. But for Hu Ming, the boss's son, Zhou Tong felt that Lu Shanmin was deliberately picking on him. But this was
Why? Just because he is the boss's son, this reason is too ridiculous.
Lu Shanmin stared at Hu Ming coldly, "No one dares to call me by my name in this bar."
Hu Ming huddled in the corner, trembling with fear, realizing once again that this man was a violent maniac, a madman who could not be offended.
Hu Ming had lived a privileged life since he was a child, but Hu Ming had never been wronged like this. He couldn't help but shed tears and said hesitantly: "Brother Shanmin, I was wrong."
Lu Shanmin sneered, "What's wrong?"
"I, I, I shouldn't be late, I swear, I will never be late again."
"anything else"?
"Also, also, you are the boss of the three bars on Minsheng West Road. I, I will listen to you in everything from now on."
Lu Shanmin's face was frosty, he stared at Hu Ming coldly, and his voice was cold, "How many fathers do you have?"
"Ah"? Not only was Hu Ming confused, but even Zhou Tong couldn't figure out why Lu Shanmin asked this question.
Hu Ming's head was spinning rapidly. He didn't believe that Lu Shanmin would ask such a simple question. He must have a deeper meaning. However, he was frightened and frightened. He didn't know how to answer for a moment. He even cried out in fright.
Lu Shanmin shouted loudly, which made Hu Ming tremble all over, and he quickly stopped crying.
"I asked you how many fathers you have?" Lu Shanmin asked again, raising his voice an octave.
"I only have one father, Hu Weiyong." Hu Ming felt as wronged as a little daughter-in-law, but she didn't dare to cry.
Lu Shanmin snorted coldly, "Remember, not everyone in this world is your father, and not everyone in the world is allowed to do whatever you want."
Hu Ming looked at Lu Shanmin blankly, bit his lip and nodded fiercely.
Lu Shanmin turned around and sat back on the chair, waved his hand, "Go out and work."
If Hu Ming was granted amnesty, he quickly got up and ran out.
Lu Shanmin's cold face immediately returned to a simple smile, "Zhou Tong, you saw it, and you will discipline him like this in the future."
Zhou Tong showed his thumbs to Lu Shanmin and said, "Brother Shanmin, from now on I will obey you even if I'm drunk and won't hold up the wall."
Lu Shanmin smiled, "If it weren't for Hu Weiyong's acquiescence, I wouldn't have treated Hu Ming like this." Lu Shanmin sighed, "What a pity for the hearts of parents in the world. People like Hu Weiyong, who are cunning and mercenary, are also protective of their own sons.
ah".
Zhou Tong reacted, "It turns out that Hu Weiyong tacitly allowed you to do this."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "There is nothing he can do, otherwise he wouldn't be forced to this point and send his son to me for discipline."
Zhou Tong chuckled, "This also shows that Hu Weiyong trusts you and believes that you can teach his son well."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "Yes, a businessman like Hu Weiyong only believes in himself. It is indeed not easy to gain his trust this time, so if you don't be ruthless, how can you deserve his trust?"
Zhou Tong smiled and nodded, "It is this boy's luck to be personally cultivated by Brother Shanmin."
Lu Shanmin smiled and couldn't help but think of his grandfather and his father who had no memory. "Where did he get so much luck? If his father hadn't been Hu Weiyong, he would have been just a gangster in school. He might not even have a diploma.
I can’t get it, I can’t find a job after graduation, but in the final analysis I still have a good father.”
Zhou Tong nodded noncommittally, with a trace of apology flashing on his face, "Brother Shanmin, I have never given up looking for Ruan Yu these days, but I have made no progress."
Mentioning Ruan Yu, Lu Shanmin felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Thinking of Hai Dongqing's punch that night, he had no room for resistance. What was even more terrifying was the wealth and power in this woman's hands.
No wealthy family in the East China Sea dared to offend her easily.
Seeing that Lu Shanmin's face was not very good, Zhou Tong thought he was dissatisfied with his ability to do things. He quickly said: "Brother Shanmin, I will definitely increase my efforts to search."
Lu Shanmin shook his head. Ruan Yu left without saying hello to anyone, which meant that she didn't want to see anyone at all, including herself. Maybe she was quietly hiding in a corner licking her wounds, which were not healing.
So what if I find it.
"Forget it, stop looking. When it's time to appear, she will appear naturally. I believe she will appear in front of me one day. At that time, she may be a different person."
Zhou Tong's face was full of apologies, "Brother Shanmin"?
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "You don't have to blame yourself. The East China Sea is so big and she deliberately hid. I don't blame you if she can't be found."
Today Lu Shanmin did not go back early as usual. Ever since he had a conflict with Zuoqiu, he has been feeling very unhappy.
The bar was closed and I walked to the Midnight Grill unknowingly.
There were not many customers in the barbecue restaurant at this time. Lin Dahai opened two bottles of beer and drank with Lu Shanmin. This was the first time for the two of them to drink.
Lin Dahai asked Zhang Zhonghui to bake some barbecue, and the two chatted and drank.
"Mountain people, I'm not in a good mood lately"?
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Uncle Hai, your eyes are still so good."
"Hahaha, just kidding. I, Lin Dahai, have been around the East China Sea for decades after all. I have seen everyone and everything I haven't seen. I can tell what a person is thinking just by looking at him."
Lu Shanmin chuckled, recalling the time when he first arrived in Donghai. Apart from other things, living in the barbecue restaurant was the most pleasant time.
"Uncle Hai, what did you see?"
Lin Dahai laughed and said, "Looking at you, it's probably not a work matter, but an emotional matter."
Lu Shanmin raised his glass and took a sip, "Uncle Hai is really bright-eyed, more or less, there are some differences between friends."
Lin Dahai laughed loudly, "I thought it was such a big deal?"
Lu Shanmin frowned, "We have completely different views on things. Isn't that a big deal?"
Lin Dahai said with a relaxed face: "You also know my survival rule, 'As long as you can bend down to live, you will never straighten up to die.'" He picked up a skewer of barbecue and said, "I think this barbecue
It doesn’t taste good, but that brat Zhang Zhonghui still feels very good about himself, so what should I do? I don’t just have to endure it, who said it’s cheap for him? If he invites others, he will have to pay at least one or two thousand more wages.”
Lin Dahai and Lu Shanmin clinked their wine glasses, "What's more, that person is your friend, so it's not embarrassing to bend down."
