Debate material on dignity
The dignity of chess has dignity. This dignity, its initial, should make modern politicians say that everyone is equal before the chessboard. A person's character can be seen on the chessboard, which is the lesson of ancient stories. In the addendum to Shi Shuo Xin Yu, such a chess event in the Jin Dynasty was recorded. When Jiang Biao, a servant of Shangshu, was young, Prime Minister Wang Dao summoned him to play chess together. Although Wang Dao was regarded as the Prime Minister, he was not as good at chess as a child, so he asked Jiang Biao to give up two sons. When the chessboard was spread out, Jiang Biao, who was young, saw that both sides were playing even chess on the chessboard. He came late. The Prime Minister asked, "Why don't you get off the bus?" Jiang Biao replied, "I'm afraid Bo can't play this chess game." The bystander said, "The child is good at chess." Wang Dao slowly raised his head and said, "I'm afraid this child is not just good at Go." Later, there was another story: Xiao Daocheng, Emperor of the Southern Qi Dynasty, was the 24th grandson of Xiao He, a famous figure in the Han Dynasty. He is knowledgeable and versatile. After he became emperor, he often played chess with ministers. There is a record in Deep Sea Collection: "Qi is generous and often plays chess with General Zhou Fu, his brother, and gives gifts to Chu Sizhuang, tirelessly. Wu is to hold your hand, and you are not allowed to relax. It is so thick. " The two stories have one thing in common, that is, the social status of people sitting on both sides of the chess table is very different. But because there is a chessboard between them, their status becomes equal, which is a miracle of Go. The world of Go can only be an equal world. "Nothing is expensive, nothing is cheap, nothing is long and nothing is young", where chess lies and equality lies. The nature of Go needs to be equal. If it's not equal, you can't play a game of chess well. If the forces on both sides of the chessboard are not equal, we must find a way to make it equal. The last story, Jiang Biao has a high level, so he has to let Wang Dao and his son, even if Wang Dao is the prime minister. In the second story, Xiao Daocheng wanted to regret playing chess, while Zhou Fu held the emperor's hand, but he just refused to move. Everyone is equal before the rules of chess. Such stories will be told in a hierarchical feudal society, because such things are really rare in life. At this time, the active party is not a good chess player, but a party with high social status. Just look at who the above two stories mainly boast about. In the first story, Wang Dao was praised. When explaining this story, some translations specifically say that Wang Dao gave a "no child" in order to try Jiang's children, and then comments are the theme of this story. The second story, the last sentence is more important, which is "its thickness is so big." Who is "Hou Hong"? Not a minister, of course, but an emperor. Therefore, the dignity on the chessboard not only embodies the idea of equality of inferior people, but also embodies the democratic idea of superior people. Although this kind of democracy is limited, it is quite difficult to have this idea. In our words today, it is to "respect the opponent". The opponent has gained dignity and he has gained dignity. Under normal circumstances, it is not low status but high status that destroys equality and ignores the dignity of opponents. Unfortunately, in the history of Weiqi, we can find more "players" who are superior to others and killers who destroy the dignity of Weiqi. Ming Di is good at playing Go, but he is clumsy. He went to the 89 th Route and thought he was the third product. He opposed Weiqi with the first prize, played gambling by the product, and resisted borrowing every time. Yue: Emperor flies chess, but I can't break it. The emperor didn't realize it, but he believed it, which was good. In this story from the Southern and Northern Dynasties, some people may think that the emperor was "kept in the dark" because of the bullying of his servants. Emperor Song and Ming had the lowest level of left wisdom, and there was still a gap of 89%, but he was listed as the third product. At this time, Wang Kang, a first-hand player, should be the most cunning one. When the emperor played "flying chess", he even begged for mercy, saying that this chess was too good for me to break. The more proud the emperor is, the more fascinated he is with chess. However, it is not difficult to see from the history of Weiqi that Emperor Song and Ming established a "Weiqi City" in his palace. If he plays chess well, he can become an official, and Wang Kang will become a "small zhongzheng" who can judge Go players. A chess player who loses his dignity on the chessboard can gain "dignity" in officialdom. If the emperor doesn't like Go, it's all over. Flattery means putting Ming Chengzu in the most disreputable position. Ming Di's ignorance is actually of his own making. If he can be sober when playing chess and regard it as a game besides managing state affairs, he won't be cheated. The history of Southern Dynasties 170 has been turbulent. The four generations of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen changed, and Weiqi flourished in North Korea, which became a spectacle. Today, we will say that this is an era of rapid development of Weiqi, an era of popularization of the ruling and opposition parties, leaving countless stories. But compared with politics, I feel that the status of Go has been greatly exaggerated. 1. Dignity makes people no longer ugly, and dignity makes beauty eternal. Today, I want to tell you a true story, which I saw on TV. There is a mother paralyzed by the old man at home, and her husband suffers from brain tumor and mental illness. She supports the whole family by herself. One day, my son suddenly felt unwell. After several months without improvement, the mother took her son to a big hospital in Chengdu to see him. But no one thought that his son was diagnosed with leukemia by the hospital. The news came as a complete bolt from the blue for my mother, who is less than forty years old. The family is so poor, but her son has this disease that requires huge medical expenses. She sat at the door of West China Medical College with her son in her arms in pain, sobbing. I saw this and thought: Who knows if she cheated on me! There are quite a few such people now. I continued to watch the news with this question: when a TV reporter interviewed the mother and asked her to make a request for the camera, she made an unexpected wish-"What I need most is a job, so that I can have a stable income to treat my son ... We have no friends in Chengdu, and I hope to get help from good people ..." She choked and could hardly go on. She is an ordinary mother, but she has a quality that many people lose-dignity! The streets are full of "healthy beggars". Compared with this great mother, they are so small. The mother is self-reliant and tries to support herself and the whole family with her own labor, while those beggars live on the charity of others, by deception and disgusting means, and ignore their dignity and personality in order to get something for nothing. Maybe your appearance is not beautiful, but your precious human dignity will make you shine!
