My opinion on 'upward socialization': Everyone has their own needs, including the so-called 'upper ups'. Based on 'value': I tend to provide equal value to anyone I collaborate with, regardless of their wealth or status. The respect they deserve is no less or more than what I give to anyone around me. In my early years, I attended a dinner party hosted by an elderly man in his 70s. Objectively speaking, my social status was higher than mine and the guests present. However, because he was the host, he personally poured wine and served tea to everyone at the dinner party; The dinner party ended, and the old man stood at the door bowing and sending off each guest, with a strong sense of Republican tradition. Communication between people is based on "etiquette", mutual respect, and the "value" that can be provided to determine whether to cooperate. Based on 'loyalty': This kind of 'upward socialization' emphasizes being extremely submissive. The 'higher ups' also know that this person has an unpleasant appearance, but if he can show himself in front of everyone, it represents his' loyalty'. For example, I heard that in some large Korean companies in the early years, at departmental gatherings, employees would drink the manager's "shoe wine". Yes, you heard me right. The manager took off his shoes on the spot, poured wine, and the staff took turns drinking. I don't know if there is still such a bad habit now. This is what we call 'loyalty'. These loyalists were no more loyal than Yi Ya to Duke Huan of Qi. He cooked his son and gave him a table of loyalty to his boss, but then turned around and locked him up in the palace to starve to death. Previously, I read a book called 'The Godfather of Asia', which studied the paths of all the wealthy and developed individuals in Asia. There is a classic quote: If it's a competition in the rat catching industry, Europe and America are researching how to make better traps, while Asia is researching how to obtain exclusive rights to rat catching. We have reached this era and entered the crypto industry, but many people still live in a state of inferiority and arrogance, using the method of "showing loyalty" to try to obtain the exclusive right to catch mice. Whether someone roast about a group of people around god v in EF or a group of people around cz in roast about BN, the essence is the same: When there is sufficient profit in the industry, corruption will breed, and the rotten parts will either be scraped and healed, or they can only be corrected by watching the emergence of new forces. When the water is clear, there are no fish; when a person is observant, there are no disciples. However, the water should not be too muddy and turn into a rotten quagmire, where only bastards can grow. The fish are so smelly that they die.
