prince meets king

Gu Donglin's strategy is actually very simple. If Duan Rong is in the position, as the party concerned, facing so many and inferior criticisms, without a period of precipitation, he will definitely lose control of his emotions.At this time, even if one of them is not in place, it will be misinterpreted arbitrarily, and even his response is to be beaten.So what Duan Rong needs is an "official" statement, an official voice, and the calm and righteous words of the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.This is a confession, not a humble apology.

But Yuji always needs gossip, once he appears, his identity will definitely be exposed, and he doesn't care about this, he just feels that releasing this kind of privacy from the beginning will not help him lead the topic.Fortunately, they were always talking at one another, which meant he could always pick and choose.

"... May I ask what is your relationship with Mr. Duan? Did you just defend Mr. Duan's immoral behavior?"

Gu Donglin automatically skipped the first question: "In fact, this does not require any defense. There is no doubt that China is a free and democratic society now. As the voice of society, every media person here should accept that everyone is equal. Such a basic assumption, isn't it?"

No one dared not to nod.

"So in this sense, man is the measure of all things. Anyone who lives has the right to pursue a happy and happy life. This kind of power is not only endowed by the state, but also a natural human right. For the standard of happiness, everyone is different, it has become a person's choice, and we all have to respect the choice of others, this is the true meaning of freedom and equality. When you nod your head, then we have automatically recognized that, in addition to the state power, which is sovereign In fact, morality has retreated into a private field. Everyone has the right to say whether they like it or not, but they do not have the right to judge right or wrong. Because that is only your personal yardstick, how do you judge others? Knowing that your yardstick is universal? Are we acknowledging that all people can have opinions, and that those opinions are the truth? No! That’s why moral debates today so often get into endless debates—our logical inferences must They are all self-consistent, but we have disagreed on the source of all inferences, the basis of "what is good and what is bad", so there are many versions of morality. Believe in morality or not, what kind of belief Morality has become an individual's preference, preference and choice, and when the country affirms the principle of freedom and equality, it has promised to remain neutral in value, and does not provide truth, but only law. So, there has never been a law that stipulates that a single The gender and upper limit of lovers that a man can have, and we all recognize everyone’s freedom to choose their own moral law, the freedom to determine what is happiness, and the right to pursue happiness—then, why does Duan Rong need to support his personal love? What about defending the conduct?"

The bottom one is fried

Boiling, the entertainment press accuses him of sophistry.Gu Donglin still listened quietly, with a vague smile on his lips, listening to their questions about social influence and moral rules.

Someone said: "As a public figure, Duan Rong just won this year's Golden Melody Award, shouldn't he set an example for the society?"

Gu Donglin raised his glasses: "Modern society is fragmented, and profession and morality are completely decoupled. When we mention 'music producer', we all agree that the measure of this profession is 'whether it can be made or not'. good music'. A man is good who performs the duties assigned to him by society, and possesses this particular or specialized art, and he may be called a good worker. As in the first book of the Iliad, When Agamemnon was going to take Achilles' slave girl secretly, Nestor said to him: Although you are good, don't take his girl. It's not that because Agamemnon is good, so He should not take the girl by force, nor does it mean that if Agamemnon takes the girl, he is not good. But whether he takes the girl or not, he is good. The duty of Memnon is the king. As long as the king does his duty well, planning strategies, leading wars, and winning, he is good. In modern society, when we look at a person from a professional perspective, it is different from this situation. It’s very similar: We think virtue is decoupled. Skills, not ethics, are the measure of achievement. Often the more talented a person is, the more people think that standards should be relaxed because of virtue.”

The noise from the reporters below was even louder, and the pot was about to explode: Such a person openly denied the existence of morality in front of them, but it was very bad, and he couldn't catch a trace of wrongness to cut in and overthrow it. The logic was extremely strict, and the system Incomparably majestic, plus 80.00% incomprehensible...however, his starting point is incomparably righteous - freedom and equality, who the hell dares to say that he will give up the fish and take the bear's paw, who the **** dares to say no!

Gu Donglin accurately controlled the string of the atmosphere on the scene, Yu Ji whispered to each other and even cursed, but Gu Donglin just stood quietly on the stage, feeling that the string was getting tighter and tighter, his face was as motionless as a mountain.

Then when the atmosphere was on the verge of getting out of control, he said in a straight voice: "But, does that mean that what Duan Rong did is understandable? Does it mean that his actions are immoral?"

The entertainment reporters were taken aback by him, so he topped his glasses happily: "What I want to say is, no, the fact is undoubtedly not like this. He did something wrong, he must have done something wrong. Everyone It is a very noble act to be able to stand here today and question Duan Rong, which means that there is a unified justice and a unified moral standard in this world, which overrides the freedom of individual choice. Only modern morality Behind the illusion of language is a serious disorder, which makes people unable to find it, thinking it is dead, or even vaguely feeling that it exists, there are only fragmented impressions, and the concept cannot be unified at all. Just like Thucydides described science What was said during the Floating Island Revolution: The meaning of words no longer has the same connection with things, but is changed by people as they please, rash actions are considered loyal and brave, cautious and procrastinating are the excuses of cowards, moderation is the disguise of cowardice, knowing everything is Do nothing - say whatever you want. This is the original reason I caution you about the use of critical language: we continue to use moral and other evaluative expressions after all objective and impersonal standards have been lost, as if they were objectively and impersonally Impersonal standards govern the same. But once, we agreed very clearly and unequivocally on what was good and what was bad, and we also agreed very clearly and unequivocally that good actions lead to true happiness and bad actions lead to degradation and failure. Today's paragraph Standing here, Rong Rong sincerely apologizes, not because he is a villain by nature, but because like most people in the society, he has lost the moral standard, thinking that liberating himself from morality is freedom, and he can be free He pursues the satisfaction of his desires. He follows his own desires to pursue the illusion of happiness, he does not believe that what he does is wrong, he does not know that what he does will make him regret, and he does not believe that morality may punish him.”

Speaking of which, Gu Donglin looked down at the audience with satisfaction, and concluded his first stage of defense: "So, it's not because of his sinister nature that he keeps changing lovers and doing behaviors that society can't tolerate. Knowing that it’s wrong to do it, but because in his heart, he doesn’t understand that it’s wrong—he doesn’t understand. He used to be like everyone standing here, and sincerely believed that the standard he insisted on was correct , it's just that he's farther away from that true path than you are, and like everyone else, he's a victim of modernity since Machiavelli. He's not a bad guy, he's just a fool, overwhelmed by his career success. Lost his head. Now, I am glad that everyone in this room took this opportunity to let him know what is right and wrong, but I also remind everyone to be cautious when judging him."

As soon as this remark came out, the tone of the entire tit-for-tat confrontation changed.Gu Donglin didn't want to completely whitewash Duan Rong, because he didn't think that everyone under him could understand it, and he didn't think that if he understood it, he would agree with it—of course the former accounted for the vast majority, but he definitely didn't come to seek opposition. He needs to bring himself into line with them so that he can have consent and then indoctrination.What he did was try his best to change Duan Rong's position from "prostitution" to "fool". It is still a very low position, but it is more acceptable to the society.Most people in the society are the last people, and the status of the moral high ground itself does not bring them pleasure. What brings them pleasure is to throw a person in this position who is far ahead of them in all external capital: with Just as the rich flaunt their wealth, the poor have nothing to flaunt their wealth and their morality.But the real fact is that if they were in Duan Rong's position, they might be even more unsightly than him.

But stupidity is different.Everyone can easily accept this kind of rhetoric, because the denial of IQ is undoubtedly the worst blow to people, and nothing can be more serious than being stupid-in the age of self-righteousness.Then those who have the moral high ground have another way of satisfaction, and they can take a moral step back to show their magnanimity to a person whose talents are far less than their own.

After getting approval on this issue, the entertainment reporters immediately relaxed again, remembering their original intention: "Are you Duan Rong's bed partner XXX?"

"Nocomment." Gu Donglin answered quickly, Duan Rong, who was silently pouring water from the thermos, was taken aback for a moment, and continued to pour water with his head down.

"How long have you been dating Duan Rong?"

"No comment."

"May I ask what is your relationship with Duan Rong?

Gu Donglin was silent for a while, Duan Rong stopped, and waited quietly for his answer.

"Nonsense," he said.

He smiled and said Nonsense.
