Features: Fake milk powder, fake alcohol, fake balls, fake diplomas, fake performance—even the famous Zhao Benshan once deceived on the Spring Festival Gala by lying. Nowadays, Chinese people are always at risk of encountering lies, and we ourselves may be lying at any moment. Emperor Shun pioneered the practice of gaining status and benefits through lying, and subsequently, the increasingly powerful Chinese hierarchical system made it difficult for people from Chinese families to be genuine. Respect for elders is prioritized over truth, and etiquette is valued more than reason. It is essential to refresh traditional Chinese culture. Whether at home or outside, we must seize the original investment of life's bull market—telling the truth, being genuine, and practicing tolerance and sincerity. Only then can Chinese people achieve rebirth after overcoming the psychological "SARS" and can the Chinese nation continue to upgrade even after dominating the world. Lying in China is not just an ordinary vice but a soft underbelly of the Chinese modernization problem. This book specifically selects the habit of lying among Chinese people to delve into the issues of the Chinese nation, examining how lying has harmed the mental well-being of Chinese people.
