Human nature cannot withstand the test
A young couple has a very good relationship, but the wife still doesn't trust her husband's loyalty, so she asks her best friend to come forward and test her husband's fickleness.
On a full moon night during the Mid Autumn Festival, my wife was "on a business trip" and my best friend "ran into" her husband. Therefore, my best friend and husband both fell victim and slept in the same bed. The result was a divorce between the couple.
A real estate owner, grateful for the loyalty of a subordinate, intends to reward him with a house. He asked the employee to choose any set in a community developed by the company themselves. As a result, this subordinate chose a large 120 square meter apartment, which made the boss very unhappy.
He thought this subordinate would consciously choose an 80 square meter set, "I didn't expect him to be so greedy. He changed his mind and voluntarily gave this subordinate an 80 square meter set. So this subordinate harbored dissatisfaction, and the boss also lost a good employee.
In his later years, the famous Danish medical scientist and Nobel laureate Finsen wanted to cultivate a successor. Among the many candidates, Finsen chose a young doctor named Harry. But Fenson is concerned that this young man cannot persevere in very dull medical research. Fenson's assistant George suggested that one of Fenson's friends fake a high salary to hire Harry and see if he would be tempted.
However, Finson refused George's suggestion. He said, "Don't look down on others from the top of morality, and never test human nature. Harry comes from a slum, how can he not have a desire for money. If we must set problems to test him, on the one hand, we must give him a easy and high paying job, and on the other hand, we hope he chooses to refuse, which requires him to be a saint
In the end, Harry became Fenson's disciple. Several years later, Harry became a Danish medical expert. When he heard about Finson's refusal to test his humanity, he burst into tears and said, "If my mentor had used huge benefits as bait to evaluate my personality, I would have fallen into that trap. Because my mother was sick in bed and needed treatment, and my siblings were also waiting for me to provide them with education. If that were the case, I would not have achieved what I am now
Offering delicious food to a foodie and making a beautiful woman flirt with a man in his prime is a predictable outcome, as "food and sex are also important". For an official who has almost no effective supervision, giving him the power to respond like an emperor, but hoping to prevent him from being greedy for money and lustful, that is a foolish dream. Even if he has the courage of Dong Cunrui to blow up blockhouses and the strength of Qiu Shaoyun to burn to death, he can't resist the temptation of money and beauty brought by power. It is the same at all times and in all countries, and there is no difference in "characteristics".
For ordinary people, there are things they care about, and everyone is selfish. Almost no one says they can selflessly give for others without extravagant demands for rewards. This situation seems to be only between parents and children (although there may be selfless situations, it is a special case), but most of them are still selfish. So, human nature cannot withstand the test.
