Chapter 38 luck

A landslide occurred in my hometown. In a residential area, two units of a building were completely destroyed. More than 30 households were affected. Eight people were buried under the rubble and loess, and finally seven people died. killed, including children. Experts came forward to explain that the area where the community is located has a complex geological structure and distribution of fault zones, which are prone to disasters such as landslides and collapses. It has long been designated as a high-risk area for geological disasters and a key prevention and control area.On the afternoon of the accident, there were already signs of a landslide. The property company had informed the residents to evacuate. Some residents evacuated, and some residents did not listen to the persuasion and returned to their residences at night. Around nine o'clock at night, the landslide occurred. The most tragic I’m afraid I will remember this sentence for a long time. The moment before the disaster, the mother who was standing in the open space downstairs called the son who was upstairs, and the answer she got was: “Mom, it’s too late for me to jump off the building now…”

Why would a huge community be built in such a place?It would take a book to explain this situation. In 2006, a friend passed by our city, and I accompanied her to climb the mountain. At the top of the mountain, she saw the development zone in the middle of the mountain, surrounded by loess mountains and red rocks, and asked in surprise: "How is such a place?" Can people live in it?" I had no choice but to introduce to her the various limitations brought about by the city's geographical and economic conditions, which was an explanation of the reason for the existence of that community.After she heard it, she sincerely and unintentionally sighed: "The survival ability of human beings is really infinitely powerful!" She spoke honestly, and I heard it warmly.

However, what made the landslide incident slightly complicated was that residents were warned in advance, but ignored the warning.I'm reminded of the disaster movie routine established by Spielberg's movie "Jaws". Before the disaster, there is always a prophet who speaks out and warns people, but is treated as a lunatic until the disaster is irreversible. .This routine has been used for many years, from the doctor in the "Moonlight Panic" series, to "Mad Sheep" and "Tearing Man", in thrillers, there is always someone who is responsible for reminding, but standing still Opposite them are greedy businessmen who, fearful that issuing the warning will hurt tourism revenue or ruin an official ribbon-cutting ceremony, are doing their best to suppress and attack the warning.Conspiring with the suppression of businessmen is people's luck. They always believe that weird and tragic things will not happen to them. As long as someone makes a guarantee, they are willing to believe it.

Lucky hearts are common.His friend had symptoms of a disease. When he searched online, he suspected some difficult disease with a very low incidence rate. He immediately felt relieved, because he believed that it was a low-probability event, and he was definitely not in the range of that incidence rate. But on the other hand, he However, he has been buying lottery tickets in the form of multiple betting for many years. He believes that he will win the prize sooner or later.In the face of low-probability events, people always take chances, believe in the good, and reject the bad. A truly rational person is a person who has eliminated the heart of luck.A friend interviewed a controversial female star, and commented on her as "no luck in her situation", that's why she will use all means to climb up at all costs. She doesn't believe that she will not pay Get what you want.Residents living on the fault zone, let alone have any luck—unfortunately living in a place that is not suitable for human habitation, they really can’t have any luck. General vigilance for survival.To be lucky is to commit a crime against oneself and conspire with death.
