What does the river man mean?

Japan is called the Yamato nation, and the core of its national spirit is "collective departmentalism". "Collectivism" is the soul of the Japanese nation and one of the important reasons for Japan's rise and rapid revival in modern times. Its root lies in the homogeneity of Japanese culture and psychology. Ancient Japan was made up of Japanese, ethnic minorities and mainland immigrants. Through long-term communication and integration, it has become a single nation in the process of political, social and cultural qualitative change. This single nation enjoys a unified culture and a homogeneous national psychology. On formal occasions, the relationship between superiors and subordinates in Japan gives people the impression that their status is very different. Subordinates always bow to their superiors, but in informal occasions, they will feel like a family with their superiors. There is no stratification in society, which eliminates the generation of class subculture, thus ensuring the homogeneity of Japanese culture. Japan is a unique nation in the world national coordinates. In the past, most people in this country were engaged in a single planting economy, mainly growing rice. Without the help of the whole family and neighbors, this mode of production will be difficult to go from spring planting to autumn harvest. This is the core of Japanese national culture? The origin of collectivism. Japanese culture can be said to be "a hundred clothes", which is mainly composed of Chinese, English, American and local factors. The Japanese's own creativity was inspired by the introduction of foreign civilizations, thus promoting their own development. The second nature of Japanese culture has formed the value orientation of national learning and inoculation of other cultures. After the war, Japan spared no effort to introduce advanced science and technology and management strategies from the west, and integrated them with traditional culture to cultivate a new Japanese-style civilization with oriental characteristics. A famous thinker in modern Japan said, "We have no philosophy in Japan since ancient times." Japanese people have an emotional tendency of "pro-nature", and attach importance to feeling and ignore abstraction in their way of thinking; Pay more attention to experience than thinking. Japanese culture tends to emphasize learning, imitation and comprehensive re-creation. In the final analysis, it is the realism and rationalism of its culture, which in turn forms pragmatism. "Home" is the mother of Japanese culture. The overall structure of Japanese tradition is a combination of "home", with the royal family at the top. This multi-level relationship with the same group has formed a political organization as the whole Japanese society, namely the country. This vertical social organization structure has strict hierarchical characteristics. In traditional Japanese society, apart from the royal family and court nobles, the ranks are samurai, farmers, workers, businessmen and untouchables. The Japanese are very particular about "loyalty" and "filial piety". The Japanese's "loyalty" and "filial piety" are inconsistent with China's understanding. The basic assumption of the Japanese is that every man and woman is born with a "debt of gratitude". I am in debt and need to repay my debt. The main form of gratitude is "loyalty". The "enterprise spirit" and "collectivism" that the Japanese are familiar with are largely based on the value of "loyalty". Because of its unique culture, Japan can embark on a successful modernization road. Of course, Japanese culture is dominated by its positive and successful side. Otherwise, it is unthinkable to become a world economic power after the United States. Japan's economy has been truly internationalized. But unfortunately, as far as its nationality is concerned, the Japanese psychology is still far from internationalization. They still wrap themselves in the unified Yamato national cultural circle and refuse to join outsiders and enter other people's circles. The deep-rooted psychological "Japan" brand of the Japanese has become an invisible yoke, which hinders the integration of the Japanese nation with other nations and the deepening of Japan's economic internationalization. Why do the Japanese call it? Outsiders? It refers to people with different styles who come to Japan from far away from overseas. A large number of Japanese operators and technicians have crossed the ocean, and cultural differences inevitably lead to conflicts, while cultural barriers increase the difficulty of communicating with each other to solve conflicts. Among the overseas Japanese operators participating in the internationalization wave, even fewer can speak or are willing to speak a foreign language. When I was a university student in Beijing, I met a Japanese professor who just needed an interpreter from China, although he explained it in English from time to time. In addition to the language itself, strong national pride and pride constitute a thick barrier. Japanese seldom say "no" for fear of hurting each other's feelings. Japanese people also have a tendency to speak well, but in order not to leave a bad impression on each other, they also swallow what they say. This embarrassing and vague expression often makes people feel at a loss; The straightforward opinions of "outsiders" will inadvertently hurt the feelings of the Japanese. The Japanese have a strong sense of "one of their own" and form a circle of "one of their own". Foreigners entering Japan are far less fortunate than those entering foreign countries (especially the United States, an immigrant country). Japanese operators overseas always form their own circles consciously or unconsciously. Too strong national consciousness will often turn into exclusive and narrow nationalism. This narrow nationalism has become the main shackle that hinders Japan from realizing full internationalization. Some Japanese also associate the system export with the capital export, and think that the "Japanese management system" can be transplanted abroad. Although Japan's economy has made remarkable achievements after the war, and Japan's system has many places for other countries to learn from, it still needs a suitable cultural foundation to play its role. Today's Japan has been involved in the wave of internationalization. The psychological state of the Japanese needs to be fully internationalized, the sense of racial superiority should be weakened, the vigilance against "outsiders" should be relaxed, and exchanges with other ethnic groups should be made on the basis of equality and mutual benefit, which is the general trend of economic globalization.
