There are cases about innovative thinking.

China needs a large number of innovative talents in the 21st century, and the important feature of innovative talents is their innovative thinking. So what are the cases about innovative thinking? Here are some cases about innovative thinking that I will introduce to you. I hope it will help you.

Case 1 of innovative thinking

How to take away these eggs

There was a basketball player who wore only a pair of underwear and a watch one day and practiced shooting on the court. A man gave him 2 eggs. The man put the eggs on the ground beside the court and left. At this time, there was nothing to hold eggs on the court, and there was no one to help, which really embarrassed the athlete. But after thinking for a while, he still came up with a solution. Since the only pair of underwear can obviously not be taken off, the watch is obviously useless. The only thing that can make him think is basketball.

to think about how to make use of basketball, we must imagine in advance through foretelling imagination: can these 2 eggs be put in? Can you walk with it after you put it in? Will the egg roll out and break when you walk home with it? If you don't imagine these specific situations in your mind and leave, it's a bit mysterious. Only a daredevil would do that. The basketball player came up with the following idea: Let go of the air in the basketball, and make the basketball into a basin, and then put the eggs in it. In thinking about this problem, he used the predictive imagination of thinking imagination in image thinking to innovate thinking methods.

Huai Bing and Shang Fishing for Iron Cattle

In 166, during the Yingzong period of the Song Dynasty in China, the Yellow River flooded, which washed away a pontoon bridge outside the city of Hefongfu (now Yongji County, Shanxi Province) and washed eight iron oxen weighing 1, Jin on both banks of the river into the river. After the flood receded, in order to rebuild the pontoon bridge, these eight iron cows need to be salvaged. It was an extremely difficult thing at that time, and the government posted a list of recruiting talents for it. Later, a monk named Huai Bing unveiled the recruitment list. After some investigation and repeated thinking, Huai Bing directed a group of boatmen to finally get all eight big iron cows ashore. Huai Bing suggested that on the day of salvage, he commanded a group of boatmen to fill two big ships with sediment and lean side by side. At the same time, a connecting frame was built between the two ships. After the boat rowed to the place where the iron cow sank, he asked people to dive underwater and tied the other end of the rope tied to the wooden frame firmly to the iron cow. Then the boatman on the boat tightened the rope on the wooden frame and threw the mud and sand in the boat into the river shovel by shovel. With the continuous decrease of sediment in the ship, the hull floats up bit by bit.

when the buoyancy of the ship exceeds the weight of the hull and the iron cow, the iron cow trapped in the sediment gradually floats up. At this time, through the rowing of the boat, it is easy to pull the iron cow to the river and pull it ashore. This was repeated for 8 times, and finally all the 8 big iron cows were salvaged to the shore. Huai Bing's idea of salvage scene uses the predictive imagination of image thinking and innovative thinking method.

? National anthem music synchronous flag-raising rope?

At present, many units often raise the national flag, especially primary and secondary schools. Every Monday morning, the national flag raising ceremony is held with the participation of all teachers and students. During the flag-raising ceremony, the national anthem is usually sung or played while the flag is raised slowly. As soon as the national flag rises to the top of the flagpole, the national anthem just ends, which is of course the most ideal situation. However, this situation seldom happens. It is often that either the national anthem has not been played or the flag has reached the top, or the national anthem has been played or sung before the flag has reached the top. This problem can obviously be solved by designing special electric control equipment, but it will cost a lot of things and money, which is generally considered unnecessary.

A 14-year-old student from No.24 Middle School in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, used his brains on the rope of the flagpole and came up with a good way to solve the problem and save trouble and money. He imagined how to solve this problem: if we set some intervals on the flag rope according to the melody and rhythm of the national anthem, then fill in the corresponding lyrics at each interval, and watch the lyrics on the flag rope while pulling the rope when raising the flag, so that we can synchronize the flag raising with the singing of the national anthem. In thinking about this problem, he used the predictive imagination of thinking imagination in image thinking to innovate thinking methods. The method this classmate came up with is relatively simple, but it doesn't mean that you can come up with it just by thinking. First of all, he repeatedly predicted in his mind how to make the speed and rhythm of raising the flag correspond to the speed and rhythm of singing the national anthem, so that the two can be synchronized. Then he found some small plastic beads, wrote certain lyrics on each plastic bead, and then strung them on the flag rope at certain intervals in turn. He adjusted the spacing of plastic beads several times and tried again and again before finally making this? Flag-raising rope synchronized with the national anthem? Yes. At present, it has been adopted by manufacturers and produced standard products.

Case 4 of Innovative Thinking

Liu Xiu lured the enemy. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Lang, who was self-reliant in Handan, once led troops to surround Liu Xiu who was stationed in Jixian County to guard the border for Wang Mang's regime. Liu Xiu was forced to lead his troops to the south to break through. Liu Xiu fled from Jixian to Raoyang, and then from Raoyang to Shulu, and Wang Lang followed closely. Liu Xiu's troops had not gone far from Shulu to the west before Wang Lang's pursuers arrived.

Liu Xiu had to lead his troops to hide in the Woods, but the road was muddy, so footprints were bound to be left, and Wang Lang's troops would follow them. Liu Xiu pondered over this and came up with a way to make Wang Lang chase in the opposite direction, and finally got rid of the danger. Liu Xiu's method is: order the soldiers to take off their shoes on their feet, turn their heads so that their heels face forward and their toes face backward, and then tie them on their feet to facilitate walking. Are all the soldiers in Liu Xiu's army wearing their feet? Heel forward, toe backward? My shoes, walking forward like this, actually walk east, leaving footprints that go west.

Wang Lang was taken in and pursued in the opposite direction. Liu Xiu thinks about this problem by using the predictive imagination of thinking imagination in image thinking and innovative thinking methods. Before adopting this method, Liu Xiu used predictive imagination to repeatedly imagine the soldiers wearing their feet in advance? Heel forward and toe backward? How the shoe walks, how it will confuse the enemy, how the enemy will have illusions and other specific scenarios.

Special recruitment

Procter & Gamble is an influential foreign-funded enterprise in the world, leading the way in washing and cosmetic products. In order to expand its business, Procter & Gamble has set up offices in many cities in China. Because of business needs, Procter & Gamble is preparing to recruit four China senior staff in Xi 'an as assistant directors of the business department and development department, and the treatment is self-evident. The competition is fierce, and with good qualifications and excellent exam results, I am honored to be one of the ten re-examiners. Ms Linda, director of the personnel department of Procter & Gamble, told me that the second interview was mainly presided over by Mr Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton is a world-famous entrepreneur. From a newsboy to the most influential businessman in the United States, his experience is full of legends. Moreover, he is not very old, it is said that he is only about forty years old. I was very nervous when I heard the news. A few days before the official interview, I made careful preparations in oral English, advertising business and dressing, so as to make it smooth? Sell yourself? . The exam is a separate interview. I went into the small living room to prepare for Mr. Hamilton's inspection. At this time, I saw a foreigner sitting on the sofa in the middle of the room standing up quickly. I recognized this person as Mr. Hamilton. ? It's you? Haha, it's you! ? Mr. Hamilton said my name in fluent Chinese, and quickly walked up to me, then held my hands tightly. ? It's really you! Do you know I've been looking for you for a long time? ?

with a surprised face, Mr. Hamilton turned to the other foreigners sitting excitedly and said loudly: Gentlemen, may I introduce you? This is the young man who saved my daughter. ? My heart was pounding, and before I could speak, Mr. Hamilton pulled me to the sofa next to him and sat down and said, I was so bad at rowing that I dropped my daughter into the lake in the Summer Palace. If this young man hadn't bravely rescued me, my daughter's life would have been in trouble. Thank you so much! ? I tried my best to suppress my heartbeat, sipped my dry lips and said, I'm sorry, Mr Hamilton. I don't think I've ever seen you before, let alone saved your daughter. ? Mr. Hamilton grabbed me again: You forgot? It was July 16th of the year before last, at Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace. It must be you! I remember a mole on your face. Young man, you can't fool me. ? Mr. Hamilton looked smug, as if he was proud of his good memory. I stood up: Mr Hamilton, I think you must be mistaken. I never saved your daughter. ? I spoke very firmly, and Mr. Hamilton froze for a moment. Suddenly, he smiled again. I appreciate your honesty, young man. I've decided: you're exempt from the test. ?

a few days later, I was lucky to be an employee of Procter & Gamble. Once, I chatted with Ms. Linda, and I asked Ms. Linda: Did you find the young man who saved Mr. Hamilton's daughter? Ms. Linda didn't react for a moment, and then she laughed: His daughter? Seven people were eliminated because of his daughter. In fact, Mr. Hamilton has no daughter at all. ? A special application. In the exam of recruiting assistant director of Procter & Gamble in Xi 'an, Mr. Hamilton used the predictive imagination of inspirational thinking to innovate thinking methods. The essence of testing a person's quality? Honesty. To gain the attention of others, you should be honest first. He who deceives others will eventually be deceived by himself. The other seven candidates were eliminated, and the owner was hired because of honesty.

It enlightens people that keeping an honest heart at all times can not only gain a foothold in the credit-oriented contemporary society, but also enrich their lives.

gravity of the earth

Newton, a physicist and founder of classical mechanics, once studied why the moon didn't fall to the earth. He believes that it is because the moon moves around the earth at a certain speed, and it is the gravity of the earth that keeps the moon rotating around the earth. Based on this view, Newton imagined in his mind: throwing objects from high mountains at different horizontal speeds, the greater the speed, the farther the landing point is from the foot of the mountain; When the speed is high enough, the object will not fall to the earth again, but will orbit the earth and become a satellite of the earth. Newton's imagination could not be realized in the real world in his time. Newton's imagination about the gravity of the earth has the characteristics of simplification, simplification and idealization in the relationship with the corresponding objective things. This imagination process in his mind uses the purification imagination and innovative thinking method of thinking imagination in image thinking. When people need to temporarily simplify, simplify and idealize the problems they think, so as to find out the problems more accurately, clearly and quickly, they often need to purify their imagination, discard those factors or parts that have nothing to do with understanding and solving the problems they face, and only highlight those factors or parts that must be emphatically investigated.

when Newton explored the law of gravitation between celestial bodies, he put aside the shape and size of celestial bodies for the time being, and only regarded celestial bodies as geometric points without shape and size. The attraction between celestial bodies is only related to the mass and distance between them; Compared with the distance between celestial bodies, the shape and size of celestial bodies have little influence (the diameter of the earth is 13 thousand kilometers, and the distance between the earth and the sun is 15 million kilometers). Therefore, the shape and size of celestial bodies can be ignored, which will not affect people to replace the prototype in the objective world with the imagination in their purified and idealized minds, nor will it weaken the information about the prototype provided by this imagination.
