Chapter 875 874 [Successful Master Wang Yangming]

During the 2008 financial crisis, among the top ten best-selling books in the United States, five were about financial management and investment, three were about financial knowledge, one was about the survival rules of Goldman Sachs, and one was about how women manage money.

Until 1939, the United States had not completely recovered from the Great Depression. Zhou Hexuan's new book clearly captured the G-spot of readers.

Selling like crazy!

The sales volume reached 8,000 copies on the first day, and the word-of-mouth boom started in the second week after its release. It sold like crazy for more than two months with a daily sales volume of 15,000 copies. The cumulative sales volume in the first three months directly exceeded the 1 million copy mark.

At a price of US$4 per volume, Zhou Hexuan's personal royalties plus the publishing company's dividends, this book brought him more than US$1.7 million in after-tax net profit within three months. Of course, publishing companies make the bulk of their profits, and their pure royalties are less than US$400,000 (the U.S. tax on professional writers is too harsh), so you still have to be your own boss.

The profit from this book is continuous, and it can be sold for at least several decades. Every time it is reprinted, Zhou Hexuan can make a fortune.

I don’t know if I can catch up with "Human Weaknesses". That book has sold more than 90 million copies. Pure royalties can make Carnegie a rich man.

The New York Times, controlled by a Jewish consortium, immediately stood up and praised, saying: "Success is so simple. As long as you follow the Jewish classic Talmud and the guidance of Mr. Zhou Hexuan, you can reap the huge rewards you dream of." wealth."

CBS also lost no time in inviting some investment experts from Wall Street to wildly promote Jewish business and worldly wisdom around the Talmud. To put it bluntly, the purpose is to whitewash the Jews, praise Zhou Hexuan's erudition, and increase the sales of this chicken soup book.

The propaganda effect is obvious. While the book is selling like crazy, the American people have begun to agree with the Jewish philosophy of money, at least they no longer regard the Jews as pure vampires.

…

It’s April in the blink of an eye.

The U.S. Congress officially discussed the proposal to repeal the Chinese Exclusion Act. Although most congressmen were opposed to it, fortunately, they did not directly deny it and continued to hold meetings to discuss how to change it.

Just as Zhou Hexuan said to Roosevelt that day, the Chinese Exclusion Act is rooted in racism, and racism is now notorious, and its continued implementation is harmful to the image of the United States.

Moreover, the tendency of the United States to aid China is becoming more and more obvious. The Chinese Exclusion Act is also an obstacle. It is only a matter of time when it will be abolished.

This proposal was discussed for three months, and the U.S. government finally officially announced the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. However, provisions that discriminate against Chinese people still exist, such as the annual Chinese immigration limit of 105 people, which is equivalent to the existence of the "Chinese Exclusion Act" in disguise, it just sounds better to say it.

But this is enough to excite the overseas Chinese in the United States. They finally have legal "equal" status, and many illegal Chinese immigrants have automatically obtained U.S. citizenship - provided they have lived for a certain period of time and have a stable income.

This was impossible before. The provisions of the "Chinese Exclusion Act" that were added many times in a row have almost completely blocked the way for Chinese people to obtain American citizenship.

Just when Zhou Hexuan was about to return to China, Feng Yong came to New York with a copy of "Talmud - Why Jews Can Become Monopoly" and said with a smile: "Mingcheng, I didn't expect that you are actually a businessman." expert."

"It's just a lie, do you believe it?" Zhou Hexuan said happily.

Feng Yong flipped through the book casually and said: "Actually, the writing makes sense. If I had read this book 20 years ago, I would probably have gone into business directly."

Chicken soup for the soul is also chicken soup, and it must be nutritious, otherwise it would not have been popular for so many years. For example, advising people to study more, persuading people to strengthen their resolve, persuading people to be confident and self-reliant, persuading people to face up to difficulties, etc., aren't these useless? Of course it works!

When people are frustrated and depressed, if they can drink a bowl of chicken soup, they can be revived in the same place.

But don’t drink too much of this stuff. Just pick two classics and read them thoroughly, and then carefully understand and implement them. If you hold on to success all day long and learn how to talk blindly, it is self-deception, and you will only get further and further away from success.

The science of success has nothing to do with the Jewish Talmud. These principles can be found in the "Book of Changes", such as "Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement." Words can guide life.

If you still want to study in depth, then go directly to learn Wang Yangming's "Heart Learning" to ensure that you gain more about the way to success.

"Yangming's Theory of Mind" is not empty talk, nor is it idealism. It is a very profound science of success. As long as you truly understand the essence of Xinxue and implement it conscientiously, you will definitely succeed. Those who fail will either lack IQ or be too unlucky.

After Wang Yangming's death, psychology was divided into several schools, each with very different interpretations, but none could escape the four words "unity of knowledge and action."

"Zhi" is not simply knowledge, and "to have conscience" is not to keep one's conscience in the popular sense. It is divided into two aspects, namely internal understanding of one's own character and pursuits, and external understanding of the people and things one faces.

Being able to accurately understand oneself, others, and all things is "to develop a conscience." This so-called accurate understanding is different for everyone, because everyone's personality and pursuits, as well as the environment they face, are different.

Once you have "conscience", you have to do it. This is called "action".

"Practice" also requires attention to methods. It is certain that you will persevere, but sometimes you will make mistakes, and you need to constantly adjust your "conscience."

Combining "knowledge" and "action", using theory to guide practice, using practice to verify theory, constantly making correct adjustments in the face of failure, and keeping one's heart unwavering, this is the "unity of knowledge and action", which is Wang Yangming's "unity of knowledge and action" "Mind learning" is also the core of any successful learning.

It is easy to understand, but very difficult to do. If you can do it completely, you are a saint.

There's no way to impart experience with this stuff, because everyone is different. People with hot tempers and calm personalities have different ways of dealing with the same thing. Wang Yangming did not require the disciples of mind-study to be steady and steady like the general success studies, but instead made the most reasonable response based on their own circumstances.

Sometimes, having a hot temper can lead to success, while having a calm temper can lead to hesitation and missing opportunities.

In Zhou Hexuan's view, Wang Yangming is a master of successful learning. Regardless of Japan in the era of civil rule restoration or China in the period of the Nationalist Government, Xinxue was the mainstream thought of both governments, and Chiang Kai-shek was a complete follower of Wang Yangming’s success theory.

Feng Yong chatted with Zhou Hexuan for a while and suddenly said: "I will return to China next week."

"Let's go together." Zhou Hexuan smiled.

After a whole year of delay, the aircraft problem was finally solved.

The U.S. government promised Zhou Hexuan to transport the plane to China, but in order to avoid Japan's overreaction, it had to make a circuit inside the Soviet Union first. In other words, sell the aircraft to the Soviet Union first, and then the Soviet Union sells the aircraft to China. In this way, Japan will have no reason to cause trouble to the United States.

Zhou Hexuan has already contacted the Soviet ambassador to the United States. Not only does he want to transport his aircraft back to the United States, but he also wants to buy more than 30 of them in the Soviet Union to form two complete squadrons.

Of course, the money was all provided by Zhou Hexuan, and the money earned from the Success School was enough.
