Chapter 4870: Selfish Choice
On the seventh day of the Spring Festival travel rush, Lin Feng convened a special hearing.
Yes, a hearing. A hearing hosted by Lin Feng.
This hearing originated in the United Kingdom and the United States. It is a system that introduces the judicial trial model into the administrative and legislative procedures. The hearing simulates a judicial trial, where two parties with opposing opinions debate each other, and the results are usually binding on the final handling. During the debate, reporters and the public are allowed to listen and even participate in the debate of the hearing.
Of course, some hearings in China are mostly just in name only. However, Lin Feng's is naturally not in name only, because this time Lin Feng directly invited about 500 people from all walks of life who were going home to debate at the conference center of the "Second World". The theme of the debate was about going home for the New Year.
"Dear friends, thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend today's hearing. The theme of today's hearing is tickets." Lin Feng sat on the rostrum, looking at the 500 representatives from all walks of life who were waiting to go home. Among these representatives, there are students, white-collar workers, ordinary office workers, and migrant workers. These people were all invited by Lin Feng. Of course, as always, all expenses for coming here to attend the hearing will be borne by Lin Feng.
"Train tickets are never enough. I believe that every year there will be many people who have difficulty returning home on New Year's Eve." When Lin Feng said this, everyone felt mixed emotions. Every year, they work hard all their lives for one wish - to go home for the New Year. But sometimes, even such a wish is difficult to fulfill. This is really sad.
"There are too many Chinese people, and there are too many people working outside, so our transportation capacity is unbearable. Even if everyone can go home on time for the New Year, they will have to squeeze into the subway like Line 13 in Beijing for a night. Or even several nights before they can go home. When they get home, they will feel so sour and drunk!" Lin Feng sighed.
At first, everyone didn't understand what Lin Feng said, and didn't understand what "sour" and "drunk" meant. But after thinking about it carefully and slowly coming to terms with it, they all couldn't help laughing. This metaphor is really too vivid.
Isn't it. There are really all kinds of smells in that carriage. The most normal one is human body odor. People from all over the country have all kinds of body odors, especially body odor and foot odor, which is really sour and refreshing. And if someone farts, if the person who farts, then the stomach is not very comfortable, the smell. It's really drunk.
Lin Feng's description is so appropriate. So interesting!
"So, this time I promoted the concept of easy return home. In the past, there were almost unlimited standing tickets. This time, only 10 tickets are allowed to be sold in a carriage, just to ensure that everyone can return home easily. But because of this, the tickets that were not enough are even more insufficient." Lin Feng said in a deep voice, "So, I once said that we have to 'save the country in a roundabout way. We can take multiple short trips through a roundabout route to complete a long trip, so that we can all return home on time!"
Everyone nodded. They knew this. But for now, they have not seen the route of this 'roundabout return home'. Before, Lin Feng said that as long as everyone clicked, 'Nu Wa Niang Mo Niang' would help everyone set the best route. But now, they didn't see it.
"Everyone, I can open the 'roundabout way home' at any time. But this involves a problem, that is, going home in a roundabout way will involve multiple changes of transportation. And this is the Spring Festival travel rush, and everyone will inevitably carry a lot of bags when going home for the New Year. At that time, it will be very troublesome to rush from one transportation to another. Therefore, I am holding a hearing here, the purpose of which is to get everyone's consensus.
"Lin Feng said very seriously, "I hope that among the vast number of travelers returning home, those who do not have much luggage can voluntarily give up the straight road home and choose the 'roundabout way home' to give the tickets for the straight road home to those who have a lot of bags. However, this will inevitably bring them all kinds of inconvenience. But I hope everyone can make a choice of truth, goodness, and beauty in human nature according to their own situation!"
Everyone looked at each other, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
Going home in a straight line is not only fast, but also saves a lot of bumps in the middle. This is naturally the way home that everyone hopes for. Your roundabout way, even if you don't have any luggage, it's tiring to change cars several times in the middle. It really takes great courage to make people give up on their own initiative.
Selfishness is human nature. Isn't there a saying that goes, "If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!" Moreover, it is difficult for most people to give up their own interests for some strangers.
Silence!
This hearing is broadcast live around the world through '. People from any country in the world can watch this hearing through '. According to network data traffic, at least more than 300 million people are watching the hearing.
"Xiao Lin, this is a bit too risky!" The two gentlemen are also paying attention to this matter. The Spring Festival travel rush is a major national event. Lin Feng said that he would solve it, and they were happy but worried. They were afraid that Lin Feng would mess up this matter. Not only would hundreds of millions of people not be able to return home for the New Year, but Lin Feng's reputation would also be messed up.
But they did not expect that Lin Feng would hold a hearing at this time to discuss issues related to human nature. Especially it was broadcast live to the world.
Any country is very obscure in the discussion of human nature. Even if it is openly discussed, it will never allow people to make public choices. That will result in an extremely embarrassing result. Including the United States, a country that advocates freedom and humanity the most. If you make a choice about human nature in the United States, the result will be very bad.
After all, human nature is evil at the beginning. From the beginning of human beings, hundreds of millions of elite soldiers fought bloody battles to compete for the only egg, and finally killed a sperm. Then, in the mother's belly, it sucks nutrients desperately. If the mother does not take in enough nutrients, it will suck the mother dry. After birth, the instinct of the creature makes it disturb the parents' sleep, just to make itself well fed, warm and sleep well.
Human nature is selfish. You let selfish humans choose to give up selfishness, which is the most difficult choice. Although human education has allowed many people to have lofty beliefs, they can give up self-interest and sacrifice the small self to fulfill the big self. But such people are, after all, very few, very few. Most people, when it comes to their own interests, will instinctively choose what is most beneficial to them.
Most of the time, generosity is also a choice that does not concern one's own interests. For example, if you earn 10,000 yuan a month and you have to donate a few hundred yuan to save a person who has nothing to do with you, most people will choose to donate. But suppose you have a seat on the way home, you are already exhausted, and just sat down, and then you see a pregnant woman, this is not everyone will stand up and give up the seat. Because this is related to your vital interests.
What's more, go home for the New Year. This is going home for the New Year!
Therefore, Lin Feng held a hearing at this time for a live broadcast, and the two gentlemen felt that it was a bit risky. If no one responded on the scene, the result would be very bad. This would give those foreign right-wing forces to attack China. Although this will not bring any substantial harm, the pressure of public opinion will make every humiliated Chinese feel angry. Initially, the 500 representatives present will be condemned. Later, Lin Feng will become the focus of public opinion attacks.
This is very risky!
The two gentlemen saw it, and the others gradually figured it out. In this matter, Lin Feng was indeed too risky. What if these 500 people all expressed silence?
Human nature, selfishness!
"What should we do? If those people really choose not to be silent, Lin Ke will be embarrassed!" Avril was also paying attention to this matter in the distant United States. Seeing this scene, she was also very anxious.
"Hey, yes, if these people choose to be silent, or if silence is the majority, then Brother Lin will be in trouble!" Huang Meixi also looked anxious.
The girls set up a QQ group, with only eight of them. They often share their lives in it when they have nothing to do. This is also a way for them to keep in touch.
"Hillary, what do you think will happen if the United States makes such a choice?" Donald was naturally watching this hearing.
"Donald, I think you might be disappointed. Americans are not as perfect as they are portrayed in Hollywood movies. In fact, many Americans are also very selfish. Of course, there are also very selfless people, but such people are a minority in any country! If I were Lin Feng, I would never hold such a hearing, at least I would not make it public. Because whether or not someone chooses to give up their own rights and interests, it will cause trouble. If no one gives up, then Lin Feng is equivalent to revealing the scars of the Chinese. And the Chinese are the ones who care the most about face and self-esteem. Lin Feng's move will allow many Chinese moralists to find excuses to attack, and even directly affect his popularity and image. And if someone gives up, they will also be attacked. This is a face-saving project. Lin Feng has already bribed it. So, if I were him, I would never choose to make the hearing public. Although, the hearing needs to be public. But I will never let people make such a choice! He is really taking too much risk! This time, it's very troublesome!" Hillary said in a deep voice.
Trouble? Indeed, this time, it is really too risky to let 500 representatives choose whether to give up their own interests and fulfill others! (To be continued)
