If you are facing a real drum, such a reminder may be a starting point; If it's not a drum, it's useless to have a heavy hammer. But in any case, a heavy hammer is necessary. Even in the face of a lot of numb hearts, knock hard. China people's thinking and way of thinking have long been problematic. The inferiority complex of enjoying success, not making progress, selfishness, blindness and conceit has also been deeply rooted. It is very useful for us to live in the shadow of our ancestors; And we have learned so many lessons that either one or the other, no one dares to act rashly. This is true from generation to generation. It's easy for everyone to reach a consensus together. Without a heavy hammer, the drum won't ring. This is the reality we are facing. How many years have passed since this reality!
When the Russians were confused, they had giants like Pushkin, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, shestov and Berdyaev to guide them. The western tradition of rational thinking is interlocking and gradual. Only China can't find his position and voice in the modern history of the world's ideological history, just like a kite with a broken line, floating in the air, then falling upside down and never flying again.
Mr. Chu Yu's criticism of China people's thinking hit the nail on the head, pushing this fact before us, and his words are meticulous. Not because Mr. Chu Yu is so keen, but because we are too slow; Not because Mr. Chu Yu is so profound, but because we are too shallow; Not because Mr. Chu Yu is so sober, but because we are too numb. I have never understood what the so-called "elites" in China academic circles are doing all day. Ordinary people are a little dull, shallow and numb, which seems understandable. Are they the same? In the face of personal vested interests and short-term interests, the pursuit of "elite" is even worse. They should be very clear about what they are preaching, defending and catering to, but no one stands out from this queue bravely like Mr. Chu Yu and makes his own independent and conscientious voice. Fortunately, there is a Chu Yu. Without a heavy hammer, Mr. Chu Yu is the drum of this era; Although I was helpless, I beat myself up. As an audience, I need to pay my respects to him.
I believe history will look back one day. I hope that day will come soon.
