Chen Dong said that his sudden rise to wealth a few years ago was because he suddenly figured out many things and finally understood the laws governing economic operation.
This process is actually quite lengthy; it's not something that can be accomplished overnight.
Suddenly, something seemed to appear in my mind, and things I couldn't understand before suddenly became clear.
Of course, to outsiders, they would only think that he had suddenly become a genius.
However, after hearing about Chen Dong's entrepreneurial experience and the series of actions he took afterward, Lin Zichang still felt that he was a genius.
Even ordinary geniuses cannot reach Chen Dong's level.
He himself is quite intelligent, but he still couldn't become a billionaire in just a few years, with numerous industries and a huge amount of wealth both domestically and internationally.
At the same time, Chen Dong also told Lin Zichang about his process of observation, learning, and thinking.
He also told him that in the process of starting his own business, he would continue to think about problems, communicate with others, and learn from his seniors.
Especially after arriving in Hong Kong, I had the opportunity to exchange ideas with many elites in the financial industry, learning from their experiences and lessons.
Of course, his statement incorporates research findings from many institutions, both current and future, including neuroscience, psychology, management, and even spiritual studies and the study of the soul.
Even for someone like Lin Zichang, who grew up in a high-class family and has access to far more information than the average person, there are many things he is unaware of.
When Chen Dong told him this, he was absolutely stunned.
"Brother Chen, you still say you don't have any special abilities?" he almost shouted.
"Can you hear words with your ears? Can you see through things? Or can you remotely sense things?"
Lin Zichang circled around Chen Dong, staring at him intently, as if Chen Dong were a vast treasure trove, from which he could gain endless benefits as long as Chen Dong was willing to give him even a small favor.
In the 1980s and 90s, there was a nationwide craze for qigong. Now, it is flourishing.
Government offices, factories, and schools have all become hotbeds for the development of Qigong, and almost every city has Qigong enthusiasts.
In many squares, riverbanks, and parks, the area was not yet the domain of the square-dancing aunties of later generations, but rather the domain of qigong masters.
For example, when Chen Dong passed by certain places, he could see many people gathering there, making strange movements, or with so-called information pots on their heads.
Without a doubt, they are practicing qigong and receiving signals from the universe.
After all, practicing Qigong can improve health without taking medicine or spending money at the hospital, so it has become a good remedy for many people.
There are even rumors that someone gained special abilities through practicing qigong, and that they even performed, opened training classes, and took on apprentices.
People are practicing things like incense kung fu and Arhat kung fu.
Of course, besides those who believe in traditional Qigong, there are also those who believe in modern technology. The most typical example is that many people at this time wear aluminum pots on their heads to receive signals from the universe to help them cultivate.
As for why this nationwide craze has occurred?
A major reason is that society suddenly became more open, and people became curious about everything.
Furthermore, many people in the 1960s and 70s did not have a solid scientific and cultural foundation, and were easily misled, believing whatever others told them.
As social beings, humans are naturally susceptible to the influence of others, which leads to widespread fanaticism.
When faced with something you don't understand, you pretend to know it, or you think, "I don't know, but someone else does."
Because that person is a PhD, a highly educated intellectual, an engineer, or someone who believes in things that people in the US and Russia believe in. They are more advanced than us, and they believe in these things, so of course we can believe in them too. It would be abnormal if we didn't.
Chen Dong also found Lin Zichang's behavior amusing.
At his age, when he's curious about everything, Chen Dong felt it was necessary to remind him.
He solemnly declared, "I don't have any special abilities. I'm not lying to you."
"As for what others say about having special abilities, don't believe them, because such things don't exist in the world. Even if they did, what use would they be? Could you build communism by hearing words, or save the country by remotely killing people? You should settle down and do something practical."
Lin Zichang's face showed disappointment, but he still retained a glimmer of hope, "You really don't... have special abilities? You're not kidding me, are you?"
"Hehe, why would I lie to you? Even if it were possible, do you think it would be too late for you to practice now? What you could learn from it, who knows? How effective it would be, who knows? Instead of wasting your time on this, you'd be better off learning and doing real work."
"Am I not an example? As long as you study hard, observe and think, and put your energy into the right path, you can achieve great results."
Chen Dong spoke with great earnestness and concern.
After hearing Chen Dong's words and comparing them with his description of his downfall a few years ago and his current achievements, Lin Zichang had to admit that what Chen Dong said made sense.
Chen Dong steered the conversation back to his own upbringing, saying that throughout his long time both at home and abroad, he has continued to read books and newspapers to enhance his learning.
It can be said that, to a large extent, the experience he gained from exchanging ideas and sparring with those masters was a necessary condition for his success.
By comparing the situation abroad and in China, Chen Dong gained a lot of inspiration.
This is why he has so many profound insights.
One important point is that you need to have a broad perspective when looking at issues.
That is, try to keep your perspective at a high level, and avoid getting bogged down in specific matters.
However, one cannot always remain at a high position.
It's lonely at the top!
Therefore, it is even more important to delve into the interior of things, observe them closely, and understand their system and structure.
A good thinker and practitioner is one who can both enter and exit the field.
After listening to Chen Dong's words, Lin Zi nodded in agreement: "Yes, you're absolutely right. I think I should follow what you said in the future, and I'm sure I'll be able to achieve something different."
After about thirty or forty minutes, feeling that he had almost digested the food, Lin Zichang said, "Come on, I'll take you to a good place."
Then, he led Chen Dong into the courtyard and then to a small door.
Passing through a small door, you arrive at the other side of the courtyard.
This is a partitioned space, belonging to a side courtyard.
The space here is much larger than the yard in front of Old Lin's house.
This courtyard looks more modern; it's practically a military training ground.
The room is equipped with a horizontal bar, parallel bars, rings, rope net, ping-pong table, obstacle wall, sandpit, iron rope ladder, and even sandbags on the edge of the yard for practicing punches and kicks.
Along the wall, there are two basketball hoops and a soccer goal, enough for a half-court game.
