Mao Yushi 毛雨诗   UNIRULE 天则经济研究所 

祝毛玉熙97岁生日快乐！ 
  
Happy 97th Birthday Anniversary to Mao Yushi!

MAO Yushi, HONG Sheng:  The Peach Tree

毛,洪: 桃树     

The Unirule Institute of Economics (天则经济研究所); Tiānzé Jīngjǐ Yánjiūsuǒ) 

UNIRULE was founded in July 1993. It was located in Zhongguancun, Beijing which is often referred to as "China's Silicon Valley". This was about 3-5 kilometers away from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) where D. Carlton Rossi  taught doctoral students in 1993 and onward. The proximity of UNIRULE to CAS facilitated collaboration and interaction between the two institutions, especially in research and policy discussions. MAO Yushi, HONG Sheng were two of the original founders. Both played important roles in shaping economic policies among government officials and social discourse with the public.  

Note: On their website, Unirule is translated as "Tianze". It says  “Unirule” (or “Tianze” in Chinese) is a name with its meaning originally stemming from the words in Shi Jing, an ancient Chinese [Book of Songs], which says: “as the universe is created by the God, there have to be rules for it”. Thus, “Unirule” stands for Universal rules that in reality govern economic and other fields."

One of the stars called  (大尊) or Psi Ursae Majoris of the Great Bear Constellation is located on the far left. Allen interpreted 大尊 to mean “extremely honorable” by using the Wade-Gilles system. It was formerly one of the Royals in a Chinese constellation called Wuanyuan or Yellow Emperor.  Psi Ursae Majoris points directly to the Alpha star called Regulus which is at the heart of the modern constellation called Leo.

This poem or l'image© is part of The Elegant Celestial Giza Series©. 

For special purposes, the poet has classified this poem as Chinese.  It is Chinese because the poet originally drew a version of it in 2014 while in China.  It is Chinese because it is dedicated to SUN Dawu 孙大午 or The Great Noon.  It is Chinese because the title 孙大午: 大尊 天空的 狮头人像©  is in Chinese. However, the most important reason is because the I'mage© includes a special star.  This star which is visible to the naked eye is outside of the Big and Little Dipper asterisms as well as the Pole Star known as 11 Draconis (Flamsteed designation) or Thuban.  The star is Psi Ursae Majoris (大尊) within the Great Bear Constellation.  This star is located at the tip of the paw. The name was possibly derived from the word 太尊, Tàizūn, meaning Royals, because this star stands alone as the only member of the Royals asterism within the Purple Forbidden enclosure.  This I'mage© is the only one in the Great Bear Constellation as opposed to the Draco Constellation.  The I'mage©  symbolizes the Chinese and now universal Mandate of Heaven.

孙大午：从“官渡之战”谈能力•道德•胸怀

April 07, 2020

Republished 10月16日 11:30 来自 微博 weibo.com

社会上有能力的人多，有道德的人少，有道德又有胸怀的人更少。所以有能力的人要修身，提高自己的道德修养和道德水准，有道德的人要提高自己的胸怀。所以，挣钱靠能力、发展靠道德，要干事业靠胸怀。

There are many capable people in society, few people with morality, and even fewer people with morality and mind. Therefore, capable people should cultivate their moral character and improve their moral standards and those with morality should improve their minds. Therefore, earning money depends on ability, development depends on morality, and career depends on mind.

The Case of Sun Dawu

'Sapere aude!  Have courage to use your own understanding was Immanuel Kant's motif for enlightenment, and this is exactly what Sun Dawu, a private businessman from Xushui County in Hebei Province, has shown over the last ten or more years. 

Sun claims to be a Marxist and a believer in communism: however, not as an outcome of class struggle but rather as the highest form of capitalism which should deliver common prosperity. He sees the market economy as a moral economic system where businessmen are the moral actors.

Second Appeal of Sun Dawu  孙大午   

A REUTERS SPECIAL REPORT

A billionaire pig farmer fights his conviction from behind bars as tycoons face crackdown in China

By DAVID LAGUE

Sept. 10, 2024

In a handwritten submission from his prison in rural northern China, billionaire pig and chicken farmer Sun Dawu implored the court to hear his appeal. He was serving an 18-year sentence on charges including corruption. There was far more at stake than his own unjust conviction, the 70-year-old tycoon wrote in his Nov. 16 plea.

Without his leadership, the business he’d built for decades would collapse, he warned. His company, Hebei Dawu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Group, had more than ten thousand employees.

If his appeal was delayed, “the enterprise will be completely wrecked,” he wrote in the legal document, seen by Reuters. “I don’t think this is what leaders of the court, party committees and governments at all levels want to see.”

Sun wants to establish an ideal city-state which will serve as a model for the rest of China. It is founded upon practical Confucian principles which have formed the basis of Chinese society and family for thousands of years. His goal is to transform a rural community based on agriculture to a civilized city-state (based upon culture) which has Chinese and international characteristics.  Specifically, he wishes to improve the quality of life for farmers and peasants by job creation.
