  Source | PingWest Pinwan Author | Xuan Ning  Nearly a year after the burst of the virtual currency bubble silenced the troubled Chinese currency circle, the name Justin Sun once again popped up in front of people's eyes. A few days ago, he spent $4.56 million to buy the "Buffett Lunch." It's still early before dinner time, and the TRON owner has already created waves of topics for himself. From trying to "load money" for Buffett to attacking Sogou CEO Wang Xiaochuan who had questioned him. It’s not that we deliberately wanted to send a bastard to the headlines, but it’s almost impossible to avoid this name in the news these past two days.  Who is Justin Sun? If you search on Baidu, a series of adjectives such as "Peking University tyrant", "Jack Ma disciple" and "post-90s entrepreneurial representative" will pop up. But in fact, these adjectives are basically equivalent to the waistbands of pirated secrets of success on street stalls and the "national certification" posted on health products under the overpass. There is no difference between Sun Yuchen and those dealers in white coats who stand on the stage in the county town selling fake medicine to the elderly, those micro-businessmen in your circle of friends who post photos of Obama, and relatives who are obsessed with pyramid schemes. He said that he relied on "struggle" to achieve success, but in his dictionary, these two Chinese words have completely different meanings from what you understand. The "struggle" in Sun Yuchen's mouth refers to speculation. To say that he is refined and self-interested is to praise him. He is a pure speculator. His 29 years of life have been composed of various speculations. High school students study new concept essay review styles for extra points； While studying at Peking University, he performed his best as a "liberal public intellectual" on campus and online, attracting well-known media reports that were obsessed with the concept of "post-90s". ； After he was exposed for plagiarizing other people's articles when he was studying in the United States, his "liberal intellectual" persona collapsed, and he turned completely to worshiping money, believing that money is the only true meaning. After that, he sharpened his head and went to any place that smelled of money - the country encouraged entrepreneurship, social networks were very popular, and so on. Developing a casual hookup app, seeing Bitcoin becoming popular, I started playing around with it, and finally entered the Chinese currency circle, the carnival dumpster of speculators. Relying on the label of "post-90s entrepreneur" and various endorsements and deception schemes, I made a lot of money selling air coins. Like all opportunists, he has the face of a very religious liar. If you look at the way he talks, he is exactly the same as those barber shop guys who tell you seriously that "freckles on your face are mostly caused by the spread of cervical cancer cells to your face." If you are not afraid of nausea, go and watch the 2014 conversation video released yesterday. For the first time, I felt that Wang Xiaochuan was so pitiful: You talk to him about technology, and he says that the central bank has held a meeting. You ask him what the advantages are for companies and individuals, and he says that the central bank has held a meeting. You say that the problem with virtual currency is that issuing currency is the right of the country. He says that the central bank has held a meeting. Please, how do you get into the situation where "the guests with me are all Zhou Xiaochuan and Wu Xiaoling level"? Don't you have a clue in your mind, Mr. Sun, who has spent so much admission fee? Do you want the central bank to come out and talk to everyone?  Chinese entrepreneur video screenshot After watching this video, you will definitely have the same "liar-looking" look as Wang Xiaochuan, and you will also want to curse people. As an older generation born in the 90s, I have also experienced the era when everyone’s information was widely available online. I have many friends who followed the active Justin Sun when they were “young” and read his articles such as “Guo Degang Sora Aoi Wants All”. In the past few days, many of them have lamented to me how a child who once seemed quite ideal had turned out to be like this. It seems that ordinary people born in the 90s like us are still too naive. In fact, in Sun's eyes, those "liberal" value slogans are the same as the "value investment" and "social contribution" that he is talking about now, and the same as the clichéd slogans in the MLM class that he hung out in elementary school every day. They are just tools to lead to his utilitarian goals, and they do not rely on his enthusiasm at all. All he wants is the attention of the outside world and then profit from it, whether it is money or power. If he hadn't been accused of plagiarism when he was a graduate student in the United States and could no longer hang out in public circles, relying on this speculative ability, Sun Yuchen might have become an excellent self-media worker by now. As long as he is here, it will definitely not be the turn of "someone" to create saliva, guide emotions, incite the public, and create more than 100,000 yuan in business through editing. However, this speculative ability is not wasted at all in the currency circle: Justin Sun copied and pasted the white papers of various well-known virtual currency projects, invited various big bosses to their platforms, successfully issued the air currency "Tron Coin" with the glossy packaging full of his own title, and then harvested the leeks and made a fortune. Not only that, Xiao Sun is also very low-profile, for fear that everyone will not know that he is a speculator. In the words of He Xiaopeng, the founder of Xpeng Motors, a liar can still "swagger through the market." But unlike the past "stuck" style, this time Sun Yuchen fell in love with Buffett and used Buffett's late career as a stepping stone for himself, and this stone has attracted strong public attention internationally. Sun Yuchen used Quan Jian and No Limit's tricks internationally. I'm afraid Buffett never thought that the method of "cutting rich people's leeks" he created would one day be used by Sun to break through the leek wall in the currency circle. You don't need any imagination to guess what he will talk to Buffett, which is nothing more than showing off a fancy-sounding leek-cutting knife. And the impact of this will be very negative. Buffett replied politely: "I'm glad that Justin (Sun Yuchen) took a photo of this lunch, and I look forward to meeting him and his friends." But you might as well imagine that Justin Sun and Buffett would put on an eye-catching performance that was as eye-catching as a car accident that attracted national attention in China and the United States. It might affect more than just the image of the Chinese currency circle (if there is any image at all). As an individual, Justin Sun's behavior will amplify the speculation, arrogance, profit-seeking and unscrupulousness that already exist in the Chinese blockchain circle. This has further formed a public illusion that "China's young scientific and technological elites are all like this", thereby strengthening some Americans' serious misunderstandings about the Chinese people at the moment, and even being used as a model material by some Americans who hold strong prejudices against China, deliberately amplifying this prejudice. In addition, based on Sun Yuchen's daily behavior, he will definitely not be afraid of putting a "representative of the country" label on himself. When the time comes, please don’t be surprised if Justin Sun, who is sitting in front of Buffett, says that he represents Chinese innovators and the younger generation of China. But this is really not a good thing for any of us.  What's worse is that Sun Yuchen will set a very bad example for Chinese young people. When a young man who is eager to succeed sees that even people like Sun Yuchen can make money, will he be more pragmatic in participating in innovation and creation, and will he be more pragmatic in investing his time in the real economy that truly generates value? Do those young parents who are increasingly eager for quick success and instant benefits feel that they have found a shortcut to honor their ancestors? Do you even equate this with the "spirit of struggle" that should be vigorously promoted? You know, Sun Yuchen still has the label of "representative of the post-90s generation" that cannot be peeled off. In this matter, China's media and investment community are also to blame. A frivolous and absurd individual who appears in every era has been placed under the big basket of the post-90s generation. Lazy descriptions such as "egg laid by the post-90s Internet" and "youth of the era" have forced Sun Yuchen to be placed in the position of representing a generation of young people. If the media do this because they are "stupid", then the investment institutions that strongly support Justin Sun will not be able to escape the "bad" suspicion. Investors one after another are saying with high-sounding words, "Robbing the post-90s generation is robbing the future." Are you telling me that our future is controlled by this kind of people? This kind of behavior is even more glaring and dangerous in today's era when we need to do things down-to-earth and seek development most. Sun Yuchen is like He Jiankui with a worse influence. He has distorted values, but he still wants to "gene edit" the youth of the whole society so that everyone can learn from him. If I make money and take pictures of my lunch with Buffett, I can step on everyone. Even so, I still saw many people in the currency circle rushing to express their support for Justin Sun. Well, maybe people like Sun Yuchen really deserve what is the garbage dump of the Chinese currency circle, but he definitely does not deserve what China’s progressive young people and China’s real hard-working innovators deserve. Justin Sun's madness is a flashback and a death knell for those impetuous, quick-successful and quick-profit opportunists in China over the past ten years. Wang Xiaochuan’s Weibo put it very well, “Only scientists who use extreme rationality to pursue truth, artists who use extreme sensibility to pursue beauty, and heroes who use great love to contribute to the world or nation can be immortal. ” Therefore, Justin Sun can rest assured: you have always wanted to be recognized by people since you were a child, and you want to be respected by the industry, the public and society for your "success". But please rest assured that positive concepts such as "success", "innovation" and "social contribution" are destined to never have anything to do with you. “In the long river of history, the clouds are calm and the wind is gentle." People will talk about you now, and maybe you will stay on the hot list for 3 days, 5 days, maybe longer. But you will eventually be destroyed immediately after madness. Because this is the rule. In the end, you are destined to be forgotten like an ant. Maybe someone will mention you again occasionally, but it will also be with a contemptuous smile: “Oh, that’s the guy who threw the coins.”         |
