Sheng is very carefree; as long as you provide it with a stable environment, it will naturally bloom and bear fruit as it should, without needing any management.
Mie, on the other hand, is different. It requires your constant supervision, management, correction, punishment, and elimination.
Ninety percent of your energy will be spent on suppressing Mie. You must manage it, because letting it take its course is no different from suicide:
The supplements you consume will nourish the spreading tumor, the money you hand over will raise someone else's children, and your advanced aircraft carriers and missiles will slaughter your own compatriots.
To nurture Sheng, one must first suppress Mie.
生是很省心的，只要给它一个稳定的环境，它自然该开花开花，该结果结果，不用管。
而灭不同，它需要你持续的监督、管理、纠正、惩处、灭杀。
你九成的精力都会花费在制灭上。你不得不管，因为放任自流无异于自杀：
你吃下的补品会滋养扩散的瘤子，你上交的票子会养大别人的孩子，你先进的航母导弹会屠杀自己的同胞。
欲养其生，先制其灭。
Sheng and Mie are opposites, and one's attitude toward each must also be opposite.
One must embrace Sheng with the warmth of the sun and treat Mie with the cold lash of a whip. To do otherwise is to act against the order of things, which will inevitably lead to a backlash.
Nurture Sheng with Sheng, and herd Mie with Mie.
Interestingly, human civilization, as the largest known collective of humanity, surprisingly lacks a functional immune system from ancient times to this day.
Until this very moment, Earth Online has remained in a state of running naked.
Maintaining boundaries is the primary task.
Countries have armies, political parties have disciplinary committees, enterprises have audits, and human bodies have immune systems.
Without the coercive intervention of force, nations will be infiltrated and usurped, governments will engage in embezzlement, enterprises will run into deficits, and human bodies will be plagued by diseases.
No matter how well you do, in the end, it all serves as a dowry for Mie.
Whether one's capacity for Sheng is effective or not is primarily reflected in how one handles Mie.
In other words, it is a question of what not to accept; the effectiveness of this is how well it is handled.

Greater Sheng prevails, looking at the long-term result.
Just as in many times of crisis, a mother chooses to sacrifice herself to preserve her child, and a soldier chooses to sacrifice himself to defend his country, it looks at the future result: the mother feels the child is more long-lasting than herself, and the soldier feels the country is more prosperous than himself, thus they make the choice of Long Sheng.
Take the deep and far for the two Sheng, take the trivial for the two Mie.
Greater Sheng prevails, is the decision-making principle when facing a dilemma.
"Greater" refers to the expectation of the result, not the scale at the time.
If both lead to Sheng, see which one is more magnificent in the future; if both lead to Mie, see which one is more infinitesimal in the future.
