Pay attention to the public number: UranusXStore (UranusXStore) to watch the collection of classic microfilms This is a German short film in 1989, which won the 62nd Academy Award for Best Short Film that year. The plot of the story is simple. 5 people with unclear faces, standing on a board suspended in the air, trying to keep the balance of the board. After a music box appeared, everyone's scramble broke the balance. Between claiming (music box) and saving life (giving up), everyone is playing a dynamic game. Very realistic. Or rather, Wittgensteinian reality. Everything is abstracted into minimal symbols and displayed in a surreal space. People, de-facebook. The same facial features and clothing represent individuals who are not individuals. There is no individuality, there are only unified desires, emotions and evil thoughts. No skills, no need to make cakes here. There is no name, just the number code behind it. Like a prisoner. Who is not a prisoner? Space, anti-physical. The slab seems to be magnetically levitated, and the outside of the slab is bound by the laws of gravity. objects, highly abstract. In this world, the music box is everything, and everything is the music box. In the process of everyone's pursuit of self, the balance is constantly being broken and adjusted. In the end it was a disjointed ending. Except for the only person left, and the music box, the rest of the people fell from the sky. The plate maintains a balance, and the balance between people, objects and space is also maintained. The picture finally stops here, the three-dimensional becomes two-dimensional, and people and objects stand at both ends of the lever. It could also be simplified, and the last remaining person rushes to the music box, hugs it and falls, leaving the tablet alone. It's like the sentence in a dream of Red Mansions, it's like eating all the birds and throwing them into the forest, and the land is really clean.
Figure: Equilibrium down to two-dimensional Any unstable system will spontaneously tend to increase in entropy, chaos and disorder. Yet balance is not just about subtraction, it is achieved by creating chaos. Littlefinger in A Song of Ice and Fire said that choas is a ladder. Chaos will lead to the commanding heights of power. Although he died in the world he created in the end (in fact, it was written to death by the screenwriter). In the case of no external force, an object is either at rest or keeps moving in a straight line at a constant speed, which is the dual meaning of balance. There is a mobile game reings: her majasty. A role-playing card game. You are the queen in it, and each card can issue orders by swiping left and right. Each order will affect four indicators: religion, people's livelihood, military, and money. Some orders are simple, such as the cardinal wants to build a church, and if he agrees, the indicator of religion will increase and the indicator of money will decrease. Some commands are more subtle. For example, in the face of the king's praise, acceptance or denial will have an impact on these four indicators. The so-called butterfly effect. The rules of this game are that the four indicators must always be in a state of ebb and flow, and if one of them reaches the peak or runs out, the queen will be executed in a fancy way. For example, if the religious indicators are full, they will be set on fire by the Pope.
Figure: In the reign of the queen and the emperor, a very key point is the balance technique. This is the measure of the human heart, the unmeasurable. How to swim between the lower realm and the upper realm is a skill that requires a deep understanding of human nature to master. In today's world, those who are also good at manipulating people can be called kings. For example, Jack Ma and the Eighteen Arhats created the Ali Empire. Tai Chi is also a skill that pays attention to balance, and it is no wonder that Dad Ma is so highly regarded. People have gains and losses, the moon has gains and losses, and the Dao is reflected in the simplicity of everything in the world. Economics is also an imperial art. Anything involving domination is inseparable from balance. There is a classic problem in economics, the so-called ternary paradox, which means: under the condition of an open economy, the independence of the domestic monetary policy (Monetary policy), the fixed exchange rate (Exchange rate), the free entry and exit of capital (Capital mobility) ) cannot be achieved at the same time, at most two goals can be met at the same time, and the other goal can be abandoned to achieve the purpose of regulation. Or more intuitively, fairness or development? Plan or market? Risk or stability? Perhaps when things are flourishing and resources are no longer scarce, such discussions will no longer be meaningful. But the depth of human desire makes people have to be vigilant. Artificial intelligence will bring about a great increase in productivity, but the tragedy is that the growth rate of material abundance will always lag behind the growth rate of people's desires. Like an expanding circle, the area is proportional to the square of the perimeter. Balancing is an eternal topic.
