Li Ao has something to say 李敖 1601Words 2018-03-18
I once said that the generals in January and February are the biggest, and many of our Chinese translations are actually wrong.For example, it is wrong to say that the "tsar" in Russia is wrong, because "sand" means "emperor" in Russian, and "tsar" becomes "emperor emperor". However, it is almost impossible to translate otherwise. It seems that it is not good to say that it is an "emperor", so we can also accept this translation of the tsar. Nicholas I, one of the Russian tsars, said a famous saying: There are two generals in Russia who can be trusted and are reliable, one is General January and the other is General February.what reason?Russia is the coldest, January and February are the coldest, if you hit me, you can't hit me.Napoleon came and froze you to death, and Hitler came and froze you to death, that is, January and February are the coldest.Therefore, these two generals are equivalent to protecting Russia.His famous quote is very interesting.

US President Truman also said that the US has two generals.Let me talk about the first one, Marshal MacArthur, the five-star marshal who fought against our motherland in the Korean War (that is, the Korean War).This is a photo of him with US President Truman, the two of them meeting on Wake Island.The President of the United States is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. You, Marshal MacArthur, even if you are a general or a five-star general, you should salute the president when you see him.He doesn't salute.Why not salute?Because he has been a general all his life, and the bigger and bigger he is, the people he sees are smaller than him. Everyone salutes him, and then he salutes back. He is not used to saluting others actively.So, seeing the President of the United States, he didn't salute, just such an interesting story.Later, the President of the United States pulled him down. When he was pulled down, Truman also said that there are two generals in the United States, one is General MacArthur (General MacArthur) and the other is General Motors.what company?This company is called General Corporation, but because of the General used earlier, note that everyone thinks it is also General, it is not General, it is a company, General Corporation of the United States.What is General Motors?That is, we see the best cars in the United States, Cadillac and so on are made by this company, the largest overlord company in the United States.President Truman told such a joke that the United States has two overlords.

This is Wilson.who?The head of General Motors.After General Eisenhower (Will) became president, he wanted to ask him to be the Minister of Defense. When he went to the Senate, when he was appointed, the Senate would review his identity and said that you would take all your shares in General Motors, all All stocks were sold.He said that I did it and sold all of them. I have nothing to do with GM now, and I will be the Secretary of Defense of the United States.The Senate also forced him to say: If an industry, a business plan, the interests of the US General Motors conflict with the US government, how do you decide? When you are the Secretary of Defense, how do you decide?This Wilson, he was on fire, and he said a famous saying through the ages.He said that I have thought so for many years, what is good for our country is good for General Motors.Do you see it?The reverse is also true—what's good for GM is also good for the country.What's the meaning?Our company is too big, the largest in the country, what is good for the country is good for us, (in turn) we can also affect our country, so what is good for us is good for the country.So, you senators, don't make things difficult for me anymore. I will be the Secretary of Defense, and I will sell my stocks. However, I did not favor my previous company.Let me tell you, don't doubt me, and don't say anything that is good for your country and bad for the company. The two share weal and woe.This made Huhu angry.

An article I have repeatedly talked to you is "National Interests and Family Interests" published in Hong Kong. I have repeatedly said that our personal interests, our family interests, and even the interests of our small groups are often related to the interests of the motherland. conflict of interest.At this time, what should we do if there is a conflict?I think that as a national leader, it is their responsibility to use their clever propaganda media to let the people or a small family know why the country is doing this.For example, a small family now says that we don’t care what your country is like. Why do you have missiles in your country? Why do you fly astronauts? ! Why is so much money not used to help the poor in our country? Is this statement correct?It's a story of its own.However, the interests of the country, the leaders of those countries, they are experts, they feel that if we use this money for relief, or for people's livelihood, we will not be able to develop cutting-edge science, and we will not be able to have achievements in this regard.What will happen?Foreign countries will bully us, look down on us, and beat us.It is because we have these abilities that others will not beat us.
