That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 847 Five Thousand Years of Righteousness
"When Jin Peng came back yesterday, I chatted with him for a while, and he told me that many people in Su'e are actually close to the West from the bottom of their hearts."

"Also, when I was at the Lighthouse, I also heard some rumors that when the group of Su-E students arrived at the Lighthouse in 1958, some people suggested that we should take good care of them.
Let them sing the songs of the lighthouse, dance the dance of the lighthouse, identify with the culture of the lighthouse, let them believe that the concept of freedom is the only truth in the world, let them believe that the lighthouse is the highest beacon in the world.

"."

Li Ye was not sure how much overlap there would be between the thoughts of someone of Teacher Ke's level and a small figure like himself, so he had no way of telling her "There was an overseas student named Yeltsin." He could only reveal a hint of the secret to her by saying "I heard about it."

In fact, Lighthouse’s cultural output has always been ongoing. He hopes to use his own strength to make everyone else agree with his views.

If we analyze it carefully, isn't this the way the Tang Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty did it? No matter what your ancestry is, we can all fit it into a framework.
But in the end, who is the core of this framework? Is it the Hu people? Is it the Han people?
Think about when Li Shimin was playing polo in Chang'an, did those Hu players perform very hard just to get a glass of wine as a reward?
While worshipping the powerful, one loses oneself.

When Li Ye finished speaking, Teacher Ke looked at him calmly until he saw that he felt uneasy.

"I heard from Xiaoyu that you have a lot of good things in your study?"

"Oh, yes, I do like to tinker with little gadgets. How about you help me take a look at them, Mom?"

"."

A moment later, Teacher Ke was in Li Ye's study, rummaging through Li Ye's collection of jade while "chatting" with Li Ye in a random manner.

"I was a little confused before. Since you are making money at the Lighthouse, why do you oppose studying abroad? Now from what you said, do you think studying abroad is wrong?"

"That's definitely not the case," Li Ye said calmly, "Although Dengta has its own ulterior motives in providing us with public-funded overseas students and scholarships,

But we now need to absorb advanced technology and management ideas from overseas, and sending students abroad is a very correct approach, but I am afraid that they will bring in their own private goods."

"Smuggling contraband."

Teacher Ke played with a small jade ruyi, raised an eyebrow and asked Li Ye: "How much do you know? Tell me."

Li Ye took a risk and observed Teacher Ke for a while. He felt that she actually knew about this problem, but she certainly didn't know the consequences as clearly as Li Ye did.

"Actually, I don't know much, but I just happen to have some business in Dengta, Japan, and South Korea, so I often ask them to collect some information, and I know some strange things."

Li Ye carefully organized his words, and then said in a deep voice: "My friend in Japan is an old guy. I don't know if what he said is right or not.
He said that the Lighthouse people used a method against the Japanese, which was to "pull out the backbone of men and take away the shame of women".
After he arrived in Japan, he first watched old movies like "Seven Samurai". He felt that Japan was still ambitious, but when he watched new movies in recent years, he felt that they had changed.

"."

Li Ye talked a lot about the social affairs of the Japanese, and explained to Teacher Ke more directly the "emasculation plan" of Dengta for the Japanese.

Teacher Ke is in charge of education. There will be no harm in asking her to pay attention to this issue.

Now in 1987, Japan is still dominated by tough guys like Ken Takakura, but in a few years, it will be Takuya Kimura.

When Takuya Kimura started making lipstick commercials, the bloodiness of Showa men began to disappear at an accelerated rate. The country that gave birth to the Kamikaze Special Attack Force turned out to be a base for beautiful boys, and also gave birth to a new style of Danmei that existed in the 1930s and 1940s.

But look at its godfather, does Lighthouse Hollywood have movies of that style?
A perverted murderer can be the protagonist, but a sissy can't.

But when Li Ye finished speaking, Teacher Ke looked at him strangely. After a moment, he said with a smile: "Li Ye, do you think that you are a 'handsome' boy? What you just said also includes you in your criticism."

"."

"Mom, I am handsome, not beautiful," Li Ye said helplessly, "and what I mean is that men should not use too much makeup and should not be too feminine. I am a masculine man."

"Yeah, yeah, don't worry, you're a manly person. I knew in Qingshui County that you're good at fighting."

"."

Li Ye sighed and was really speechless.

Mr. Ke, you are a senior official after all. How can you make fun of people like this?
But after Teacher Ke smiled, he said seriously: "Okay, okay, I will pay attention to what you said later. Now tell me the second half of the sentence. What do you think of taking away a woman's modesty?"

Li Ye thought for a while and said, "I only know part of this. To sum it up, it is to encourage women to gain something for nothing, or to gain more benefits through easier means."

Teacher Ke was obviously stunned, then asked, "Are you talking about improper relationships between men and women?"

"not quite."

Li Ye quickly explained: "When I went to the Tokyo Film Festival, I heard from the locals that stupid Japanese women have four wallets. They began to seek ways to make money outside of work."

"."

"Li Ye, the question you raised is a bit one-sided. Housewives also have their own self-esteem and rights. Otherwise, wouldn't unemployed comrades be inferior to others?"

Teacher Ke obviously didn't realize the problem Li Ye mentioned, and even seemed to disapproving of it.

Because in the 80s, mainland women had a very strong ability to create wealth and support themselves, and the female labor participation rate exceeded %, ranking among the highest in the world. It is no exaggeration to say that women hold up half the sky.

However, in the following decades, this proportion has been declining. According to data from the International Labor Organization, the labor force participation rate of women aged 15-64 in the mainland has dropped from 2000th in 11 to 2022st in 51.
By 2019, the female labor participation rate had dropped to 68.57%, the largest decline among the top 15 countries in the world in terms of GDP. In other words, the phenomenon of "unproductiveness" is gradually invading the female group in mainland China.

Marrying a rich man, having no worries about food and clothing, and spending money to one's heart's content is becoming the mainstream consciousness of some people.

"It's definitely wrong to be inferior to others, but I don't understand it either."

Li Ye originally wanted to say something in detail, but after seeing Teacher Ke's expression, he felt that it would be useless for him to say anything.

There are still many men who beat their wives these days! As a woman, Ms. Ke might be working hard to fight for women's equal status. How could she realize that extremes will lead to the opposite result?

In a few decades, will you beat your wife?

We don’t even know who will beat whom!

Li Ye does not reject housewives, but what about housewives who wait for their husbands to come home and do all the work?
And the strange thing is that their spending power is extremely strong.

They do not create wealth, but their spending power is extremely strong. What other explanation is there other than someone else making transfer payments?
Looking at several events in later generations and then looking at the program by Wang Po, the moral level of a certain group is on the verge of dropping to the level of swindlers. Isn't this phenomenon worthy of people's vigilance?
You know, the lighthouse used this trick to kill South Korea.

Look at how JD.com hired Miss Hat as its spokesperson, which then sparked a strong reaction from a group of straight men. Isn’t that something that should give us food for thought?

Teacher Ke chatted with Li Ye for a while, and then asked Li Ye seriously: "You have told me so much, what do you want me to do?"

Li Ye straightened his back and said seriously, "Mom, I think we should strengthen the historical and cultural education of children from an early age, so that the righteousness of our Flower Planting Family for five thousand years can become the strongest shield against foreign invasions."

"."

Teacher Ke was stunned for several seconds, then smiled and said, "Do you really think so?"

Li Ye was surprised and said, "Mom, I not only thought so, but I also did it! Luxury cars, BMWs, and disco are certainly addictive, but aren't the four lines from Hengqu thought-provoking?"

"."

Teacher Ke was silent. She thought of Li Ye’s many works and realized that Li Ye seemed to have been doing something a long time ago.

In his previous life, Li Ye was also confused. Looking at the popular golf, baseball, rap, Latin dance, etc., he suddenly asked himself: "After 5,000 years of flower cultivation, what sports have been passed down?"

At least before the 2000s, the traditional flower-growing culture seemed to have no ability to fight back against the noble movement of the West.

But later, when Li Ye saw the lion dance, listened to the new opera, and looked at the white snake carrying the green snake, he realized how much wealth his ancestors had left to their unworthy descendants.

Some things can destroy Japan and South Korea, but they don't seem to be good enough in front of the flower growers.

Because those two were only apprentices of the Flower Growers, they were half-baked and had not received the true teachings.
