Chapter 66 what we talk about when we talk about banks

What are we talking about when we talk about banks?We are used to putting a verb in front of "bank".There are many kinds of daydreams, not only those that are aboveboard, but also those that are pornographic and obscene. Successfully withdrawing money that does not belong to you from the bank is a scene that often appears in daydreams. Movies turn this daydream into reality in the form of images, and provide various methods for the audience to achieve obscenity.Rushing in with a weapon - real or fake - is most common, as in Bonnie and Clyde, Hot Afternoon, 44 Minutes, Die Hard 3 It is a supplement to this hard punching method. By creating public safety accidents and diverting police force, robbers complete the robbery of bank gold.

"Bank Robbery" provides another way of thinking. Like "The Hole" and "Escape from Berlin", it is happy to be a local grandson, renting a house near the bank, digging a hole leading directly to the vault . Although "Impeccable" did not steal the vault, but the warehouse of the diamond company, the situation is somewhat similar, and it uses a simple method to explore the possibility of stealing two tons of diamonds under video surveillance. "Firewall" and "Operation Sailfish" provided the most technical and least risky methods, hiring or coercing computer experts to transfer bank deposits by hacking.

But the most ingenious method I have seen so far appears in "The Insider". After the robbers took control of the bank, they made everyone wear the same clothes, and finally mixed with the hostages to leave smoothly. "I'm Crazy for Money" is an encouragement to all the above methods. It tells a simple truth. The bank's defense may not be as strict as we imagined. The situation of "darkness under the lights" is common. Banks use it. It is a lock you can buy in the supermarket. Compared with other crime movies that always bring uneasiness and anger to the audience, bank robbery movies are usually happy, and those robbers who don't hurt people are regarded as heroes, usually played by Al Pacino, Sean Connery, Michael Caine, Harrison Ford, Hugh Jackman and other superstars with positive faces will play.Because once a person or a unit gathers money that is difficult to gather through ordinary labor, it will be regarded as unrighteous. The difference between righteousness and unrighteousness of wealth does not lie in the way of obtaining it, but in the amount. righteous.Just like a friend of mine, after he became a rich man, those who borrowed money from him were unwilling to pay back, and his loss was regarded as a loss that he should bear.

Despite the prevalence of bank-robbing fantasies, the moral hazard of expressing such fantasies in public is no less than that of public confession of sexual fantasies.A teacher majoring in secretarial affairs at a university in Guangdong, since 2002, has assigned students one of the homework content, requiring them to formulate a plan to "rob a bank".After the news appeared in the newspaper, although he said that this was an educational method used by Harvard Business School, even though until 2007 when the homework content was exposed, none of his students practiced the bank robbery plan in reality, although some people believed that this was just a This kind of thinking game, the process of students entering and exiting the game is just a process of breaking away from daily life and returning to daily life, which will not cause harm. The teacher still encountered endless censure.

In fact, since a person has the physical strength, ability, and courage to rob a bank, it is entirely possible to become a rich man with this physical strength, ability, and courage, and obtain larger loans.Paul Johnson's "Modern: The World from 1919 to 2000" mentioned that in the 1920s, in Germany under hyperinflation, no one took the "Mark of the Republic" seriously. Invest in the form of fixed assets as quickly as possible by means of banknotes", and then repay the loan with depreciated banknotes, becoming the absolute owner of all fixed assets.And we're recreating that process.Therefore, every time I see the news about robbing banks, I have the intention of hating iron but not steel. I almost want to criticize them like Er Dongsheng criticized Wang Jing for "obviously capable of making good movies"-"You obviously don't need to rob banks!"
