Chapter 659 President Pei is on the fifth floor (it is no wood in the stone 3/10)
"So, games are a neutral thing. Do you use it to relax your mind and work better? Or indulge in it and escape reality? It depends on your own choice."
"Just like Tenda Group has never prohibited employees from playing games, is this encouraging employees to fish and swim? Obviously not, this is encouraging employees to combine work and rest."
"Rest is actually to work better."
"When you are tired from work, play games to relax and make the next work more efficient. Wouldn't this make better use of your attention?"
"In the final analysis, it still comes down to the key word 'attention'."
"That's why Mr. Pei made the game "Struggle". His game is not to make you addicted and escape from reality, but to allow you to better enter reality and accept reality."
"Similarly, Mr. Pei's view on consumerism is not to emphasize that certain things must not be bought, and buying them will be an IQ tax, but to emphasize that one must understand one's real needs."
"Mr. Pei believes that the most precious wealth is attention, and a reasonable view of wealth is to use money to leverage attention, do meaningful things, and create greater value."
"The so-called 'resist consumerism' is the same. It doesn't mean that if you buy expensive things, you have paid IQ tax and have been fooled by consumerism. The key is what is the purpose of your money."
"For Mr. Pei, as a boss, he needs a certain degree of decency when discussing business with others, so he buys designer suits and watches."
"But if you look closely at those three world-famous paintings, you will find that he only wears two suits and only one watch, all of which are kept at the minimum level he needs."
"Similarly, Mr. Pei has money to buy a mansion, but he doesn't buy it. Instead, he lives in a sloth apartment and uses this minimalist style to create an environment for himself that is conducive to thinking."
"Mr. Pei's behavior is the best explanation of 'resisting consumerism'. Every purchase made by Mr. Pei is actually to leverage his attention to create the greatest value."
"So to summarize, what is the 'IQ tax'?"
"The money everyone has is limited. With the same amount of money, if you use it to buy a brand-name bag, you will not be able to invest or learn knowledge."
"So, the key to determine whether a certain expense is an 'IQ tax' or whether it is brainwashed by consumerism is what it can bring you."
"If you go to discuss business with others and don't even have a decent suit, you are creating obstacles for yourself. At this time, buying a famous brand suit is not an IQ tax;"
"But if you are a courier, wearing a brand-name suit is not only inconvenient to move the goods but also easy to get dirty. Then buying a brand-name suit will be an IQ tax."
"So, by analyzing Mr. Pei, we can get what he wants to express outside of "Struggle":"
"If you want to change your destiny, you must first rely on wealth accumulation and resist consumerism; second, you must rely on hard work."
"The core of resisting consumerism is not to spend less money, but to spend every penny on things that can improve yourself, create more value, and be truly useful to you;"
"The core of hard work is not to repeat the work stupidly, to push yourself through hard work, and to end up in the dark. It is to use your attention wisely, to think independently, and to find a correct direction."
"You spend money to play games and see, as long as you are not addicted, but use it to adjust your mood, work better, and even get some inspiration, then it is meaningful."
"So, this is what Mr. Pei conveyed to us through real life outside of the game "Struggle"."
"Once you understand this, you will find that all of Mr. Pei's businesses are actually repeatedly expressing these two points to us."
"Back to the original question."
"Why do I say, Moyu Internet Cafe, Moyu Takeout, Sloth Apartment, Panic Hostel, fully automatic lifting machine, managed gym, and even earlier ROF installation, Otto mobile phone, headwind logistics, etc., are all based on "Struggle"
An extension of the concept expressed in this game?”
"Because all these industries can be summarized into these two points."
"These products may seem more expensive than competing products in the same industry, but in fact they provide a better experience. You do spend more money, but what do you save?"
“Saved attention!”
"Just like a managed gym. Everyone knows that it is much more expensive than an ordinary gym. But in an ordinary gym, you need to supervise yourself, exercise every day, and have a reasonable diet. Sometimes when you go to the gym, you find it is crowded and you have to queue up to use the equipment.
, wasted my time.”
"But the managed gym arranges your training schedule and diet, and also ensures that you can start exercising immediately every time you go. This way you can save your attention and use it where it is needed more."
"The same is true for Moyu takeout. It is of course more expensive than other takeaways and more expensive than cooking by yourself. But when eating other takeaways, you have to check whether the ingredients are fresh? Is there too much oil and salt? If you cook by yourself
, you have to buy vegetables, choose vegetables, wash vegetables, learn recipes, and it takes at least half an hour to make a meal."
"But if you choose Moyu takeout, you can eat with peace of mind, and the attention you save can be used where it is needed more."
"Including the fully automatic lifting machine and the sloth apartment, it also emphasizes to everyone the importance of concentration and careful thinking."
"As for the Panic Hostel..."
"Actually, after finishing the last video, I have been thinking, what is missing?"
"Now I understand that in the previous video, the expression of President Pei's thoughts was missing, so it felt less convincing."
"Now, the Panic Hostel should be included in the scope of 'Tengda Life' and reconsidered."
"'Tengda Life' is the lifestyle advocated by Mr. Pei. For Mr. Pei: when it is quiet, it is a minimalist philosophy, and when it is dynamic, it is a big pendulum of a haunted house."
"Some people have long reported that Mr. Pei is very fond of extreme sports and often invites friends to play big pendulums, roller coasters, skydiving and haunted houses."
"Why does Mr. Pei like these? Is it just a personal hobby? Now it seems that is not necessarily the case."
"When he is thinking, he can stay in the Moyu Internet Cafe and think about the flow charts of various departments until late at night;"
"But after thinking and resting, he will use this extreme stimulation to relieve stress and eliminate fatigue."
"So, this video should be interpreted as more than just Panic Hostel, and not just the game "Struggle"."
"It's the various ideas that Mr. Pei is trying to convey to us through games and various industries of Tenda Life."
"Some people say one thing and do another behind their backs, asking others to do it but not doing it themselves."
"But Mr. Pei has been practicing this concept personally."
"This is the biggest breakthrough in the dimensional wall of the game "Struggle"! It is also the real part of the puzzle that Mr. He An has not solved!"
"So, when Mr. Pei told me not to use "The Work of the Gods" to answer "Struggle", I was still a little confused."
"But now I understand that "Struggle" is not just a game, it is a key, a key that helps us better understand the real world."
"Therefore, it should not be placed in the column of "The Works of the Gods", but should be interpreted from a higher perspective."
“This is exactly what the ‘Silent Expressers’ video series is about!”
"The above is the entire content of this video. Welcome everyone to support three times in a row. See you in the next one!"
…
After watching this video of Qiao Laoshi, He An fell into silence.
Some of the ideas here are a bit shocking even to him.
When answering questions about the game "Struggle" before, He An did not analyze certain contents in depth, such as "how to struggle", "what is the specific meaning of consumerism", etc.
Maybe it’s because I feel it’s unclear, or maybe I feel I can’t explain it clearly.
But now He An was surprised to find that Mr. Pei also gave the same answer to these contents!
The speech for poor students, the sloth apartment and the fully automatic jackpot machine are actually supplements to the game "Struggle" in the real world.
Tenda's physical stores, including Moyu Internet Cafe, Moyu Takeout, managed gyms, etc., are indeed expensive, but in addition to using better materials and making people more reassuring, their greatest value is that they save customers' attention.
Customers can choose these brands mindlessly without worrying about being deceived, and can save their attention to do more meaningful things.
He An originally looked down upon these up owners who did game interpretation, thinking that they were just a bunch of amateurs. As long as the real game producers took action, they would definitely be wiped out in seconds.
But now, He An put away this contempt.
Obviously, professional knowledge of games has become a stumbling block for He An. He only analyzed "Struggle" thoroughly from the perspective of games, but he did not realize that he could also analyze "Struggle" from a higher dimension.
》Carry out analysis!
In other words, the game "Struggle" extends to all aspects of reality, and even He An is not aware of this.
It wasn't until Mr. Qiao's wet spot came out that He An suddenly realized it.
Originally, He An thought that Qiao Laoshi was on the first floor, he was on the second floor, and Mr. Pei was on the third floor.
But now, Qiao Laoshi climbed to the fourth floor, only to find that Mr. Pei was on the fifth floor!
He Anxin was so convinced that he silently retweeted the video on his Weibo and sent a three-thumbs-up emoticon.
In order to maximize the game "Struggle", Mr. Pei not only used full motion capture, but also meticulously crafted every detail of the game.
He even used many real-life industries to match this game, leaving a lot of puzzles in reality!
Games and reality are closely connected, completely beyond He An's imagination.
At this time, He An only had four words in his mind.
Convinced!
Tenda is indeed worthy of being the light of domestic games!
