侃問:「持志如心痛。一心在痛上,安有工夫說閑語、管閑事?」 先生曰:「初學工夫,如此用亦好;但要使知『出入無時,莫知其鄉』。心之神明,原是如此,工夫方有著落。若只死死守著,恐於工夫上又發病。」

春以奉耕,夏以奉耘,耒耜器械,種饟糧食,必取澹焉。故大賈畜家不得豪奪吾民矣。」桓公遂用區區之齊合諸侯,顯伯名。 其後百餘年,周景王時患錢輕,將更鑄大錢,單穆公曰:「不可。古者天降災戾,於是乎量資幣,權輕重,以救民。民患輕,則為之作重幣以行之,於是有母權子而行,民皆得焉。若不堪重,則多作輕而行之,亦不廢重,於是乎有子權母而行,小大利之。今王廢輕而作重,民失其資,能無匱乎?民若匱,王用將有所乏;乏將厚取於民;民不給,將有遠志,是離民也。且絕民以實王府,猶塞川原為潢洿也,竭亡日矣。王其圖之。」弗聽,卒鑄大錢,文曰「寶貨」,肉好皆有周郭,以勸農澹不足,百姓蒙利焉。

管仲(舊題)《管子》· 第67篇明法解 · Leadership · Cognition · Decision · Human nature

姦臣之敗其主也,積漸積微,使主迷惑而不自知也。上則相爲候望於主,下則買譽於民。譽其黨而使主尊之,毀不譽者而使主廢之,其所利害者,主聽而行之。如此,則羣臣皆忘主而趨私佼矣。故明法曰:「比周以相爲慝,是故忘主死佼以進其譽。」

Ren Zhengfei《Ren Zhengfei Interview with The Economist》· On innovation and academic freedom · Learning · Leadership · Growth

Huawei People no. 345 (2019-11-01), “Ren Zhengfei interview with The Economist,” answer on innovation

Reading

Innovation depends on academic freedom and free research directions.

Context

Ren Zhengfei (1944–) founded Huawei in Shenzhen in 1987 and built it from a switch distributor into a research-intensive technology company. In a 2019 interview with The Economist, he argued that innovation depends on academic freedom and free research directions. The claim reflects his view that basic inquiry, not short-term commercial calculation, sustains long-term competitiveness.

Today's question

Does your team have room for free research directions—or must every exploration prove short-term returns first?
