    • 中国经济 是由 房地产投资 和工业生产来引领， 但消费滞后
    • 工业 由出口驱动

families

  • 在自己喜欢的人身上用心，在不喜欢自己的人身上健忘

  • 人性定律：无论一个男人多么需要女人的顺从、夸奖女人的付出，他都不会发自内心的爱和欣赏这个女人 - 玩偶再漂亮再听话，最终也只能被厌弃。

  • 有内在中心*的女人，找老公自然找能够携手一起创造美好的人，谁也不会觉得谁多付出了，谁亏欠谁了，都是在为自己想要的人生奋斗而已

china

  • 人的发现

    • 日本人没有经历过西欧的文艺复兴,全体国民都被束缚在日本神学的框架里, 也被其教义束缚了思维; 所以这里没有十九世纪史学大师布克哈特说的“人的发现”,同时也就没有人道主义产生的土壤, 这也是日本人通常被外国人批评没有内在教养的原因

    • 虽然日本人有炽烈的民族意识, 但是作为 个人却没有独立的意识, 没有人性的真正发展; 而人的思维自由和政治社会活动自由都是从个人的意识里产生的

    • 独立的人格 -> 能对自己负责的人

      • 科学依托于自然规律面前人人平等的精神特质, 契约和科学精神是一对孪生兄弟
      • 启蒙运动用 理性解释世界, 把命运掌握在自己手中; 启蒙运动中的理性崇拜和科学兴起

  • 选择什么是文化， 能否选择是 制度

  • 中共体制的心智模式 - 高度依赖确定性

    • 在确定性的框架内, 内部人才高度竞争, 不能容纳失败, 结果就是过度管理, 所有人都以确定为荣
    • 不确定是恐惧, 是慌张; 失败, 是羞耻,是污点
    • 而创新, 创意, 从萌芽到长成, 就是与不确定与失败一路相伴
    • 科技创新 先于法律法规监管， 但垄断， 美国更关注一家企业的高市场占有率是怎么得来的
      • 在美国，只要有经过市场机制，就很难认定是垄断 <- 关注的是过程
      • 中国官方关注的是 不能让一或两家企业享有绝对的支配地位，当就会不安 <- 关注的是结果

  • 中国的传统做法不是造出较好的捕鼠笼来捕捉更多的老鼠，而是向官府谋取捕鼠特权

  • 对外部世界的不信任感和独立意识极强，缺少合作意识

  • 中国人最需要的东西是放弃因的确不行带来的自卑导致的那份自大, 弥补性的狂妄与自卑自贱交替

    • 改正因精神懒惰而带来的那种宿命情结而导致的那份给自己找核心找主子,在集体中寻找个人价值同时伺机破坏规则的狡黠

  • 在人与人及国与国交往中, 只能理解主奴关系

    • 也就是上下顺从关系

  • 中国对商贾名流一向以道德模范为标准, 而更成熟的商业社会通常把职业道德和私人道德分得很清楚

  • 中国人的自我为中心，封闭，排他性认可 -> 十月革命

    • 思想上没办法融入当地社会
    • 反对别人不包容
    • 排他性的认同

  • 商业

    • 商人 可以自己组织商会， 自组织能力很强
    • 产权要有法律保障
    • 中央集权， 让政府权利太大 -> 把企业的资产当成 自己的资产

  • 法家以 底线思维 最大化战斗力， 形不成向心力

  • 中国人一次次在重要的历史转折关头往往做出最坏的选择，跟他们看待世界的方式方法有关

    • 习惯做价值判断和是非判断

      • 只有利益, 没有是非; 只有敌友, 没有事实
      • 因为这样做的思维门槛低而且很容易得到支持者

    • 只问立场, 不问对错是非

    • 论敌友而不论事实和逻辑

      • 不是用事实和逻辑看问题，而是先分敌友，论敌友不论事实，论利害不论是非

      • 是敌人，对我们多好也是敌人；是“战略伙伴关系”，骑在你头上拉屎也是伙伴

      • 中庸之道 - 凡事喜欢和稀泥

        • 缺乏逻辑分析能力，缺乏讲道理的习惯
        • 学会“难得糊涂”， 才能安全地生存下去

  • 中国人喜欢难为自己, 比如自给自足, 独立自主, 自己攻关, 努力

    • 交换和合作 - 把精力用在更需要你的地方
    • 站在巨人肩膀上
    • 马上找相关领域的人合作, 让对方去做相应部分,自己再深挖自己的部分, 强强联合

  • 帽子文化

    • 国人更热衷“帽子”文化“, 认为一旦冠上帽子, 就是高质量高水平的体现

  • 当人们普遍缺乏“规则意识”、“责任意识”时，制度要么形同虚设，要么就意味着大到惊人的实施成本

  • 不需要你自己百分百干净（道德评判）， 只要看你说的是否有道理或是事实，无论你是否别有用心，否则再干净也不行

  • 美国人

    • “斤斤计较”的权利意识, 更是生动注释了美国人“权利观念”胜于“敌我观念”之精神
    • 另外，美国社会的“公民责任意识” “当我的权益受到侵害，你要坚决捍卫我的权益；当你的权益受到侵害时，我要坚决捍卫你的权益”的责任共同体意识
    • 美国人的特点之一是, 尽最大努力降低信任成本
      • 你说什么,别人就信什么, 很少浪费时间琢磨对方真实心思

  • 概念

    • 中国和西方所谓的“人权”压根不是一个概念
    • 中国文化给人感觉是“你一定要活着”（然后小声说但是可要感恩哦不要随便说我坏话哦）
    • 英国保守党派是“你一定要可以发声”（然后小声说但是你要是病死饿死了那可能也只能怪你不努力了哦）
    • 命重要还是发声重要？
    • 我感觉和平时期大家更想发声, 但困难时期先保住命，愿意牺牲一些自由

  • 礼法传统

    • “天朝心态”, 希望给予外人超规格优待, 来达到“以德服人”
      • 换来礼法制度下的“面子”, 而这种面子是建立在对方的尊重, 诚心悦服之上
      • 优待客人, 这里有个隐含默契: 主人的付出, 是换取社会承认, 对方必须以感恩作为回报, 有时候表现为客人需要吹捧主人
    • 西方传统中, 公民权*是最基本的法定权利, 被排斥在外的人不享有权利
    • 在中国却相反,对自己人不必客气, 而对外人的礼让,是建立在礼法的等级结构之上的

  • 性格

    • 奚梦瑶的笑容把一个让人吓到苍白无力的场景，转化为整场秀最好、最动人心的时刻之一
      • 这似乎又反映了经典的中国式好面子，对比西方人鼓励尝试、不怕失败的精神

  • 思想

    • 纳粹和社会主义者, 都讲问题于答案之间的起因和细节全部忽略
    • 只由问题的现象直接跳跃到 道德的答案

中国人的教育

  • 归因错误的教育方式 -> 因为别人 complain 或者别人有可能 complain，所以我们可以教育孩子收敛一下; 而不是从一开始就告诉孩子，你本来就不应该怎么做怎么做，即便没有任何人指出来。

    • 其实根源在于，他很小时候，你就没告诉他什么是对，什么是错，什么是客观的依据和准绳。
    • 你教育了他这样的人生观: 一切以别人眼光为是非标准，要不就是取悦别人，要不就是试探别人底线。
    • 他在这种教育下，没有机会建立自己的是非观
      • 加上父母的教训总是把矛头引向别人。他自然就学会了，把能赖在别人身上的都赖在别人身上，包括也能把矛头指向教他这样做的父母

  • 传统中国重视思想却不重视理论，而且不重视逻辑训练

  • 念书的唯一目的就是知识，知识与所得财富有正相关；知识与商业报酬之间没有必然联系
