Overview

A Masterclass in Risk, Resilience, and Eastern Wisdom. When the ""Animal Spirits"" of Keynes meet the ""Unity of Knowledge and Action"" of Wang Yangming. A survival guide for the age of uncertainty, forged by a veteran banker who has witnessed the rise of the Chinese economy from the front lines. [Book Description] We live in an era where experience is failing, and consensus is collapsing. The sudden strikes of ""Black Swans"" and the charging of ""Gray Rhinos"" have turned yesterday's maps of success into today's paths to the cliff. In the face of immense uncertainty, how can an individual find solid ground? The author is a Financial Veteran from China with over 30 years of experience in front-line risk management. Having personally reviewed credit applications for thousands of enterprises and witnessed the most magnificent economic cycles in modern Chinese history, he goes beyond cold financial models. He innovatively fuses ancient Chinese philosophy (the dialectics of the I Ching and the wisdom of the Tao Te Ching) with modern economic theory, forging a lifelong thinking tool-the ""Four Forces Compass"": The Force of Expansion (Yang): The primal engine driving growth and hope. The Force of Contraction (Yin): The inevitable brake triggering recession and fear. The Force of Equilibrium (The Golden Mean): The ""Visible Hand"" maintaining order and stability. The Force of Evolution (The Tao): The ultimate direction leading civilization across cycles. Spanning 320,000 words, this book guides readers through a complete transition from ""Cognition"" to ""Action"" and finally to ""Inner Cultivation"" Deciphering the Global Chessboard: Using the ""Four Forces"" to deeply analyze global macro trends and China's economic pulse, helping you understand your position in history with unprecedented clarity. Navigating Life Choices: Applying macro logic to micro battlefields. Learn to position your Career, build a Wealth Ark (Asset Allocation), and optimize your Life Algorithms (Consumption & Debt) to create an antifragile personal system. Settling the Heart in Uncertainty: Returning to ultimate concerns. Blending Stoicism with Confucian and Taoist wisdom, this part explores how to harness the ""Four Forces"" within your heart, tame greed and fear, and find dynamic inner order in a chaotic world.

It is a Strategic Handbook for Life, dedicated to active explorers who feel the anxiety of the times but refuse to give up, longing to regain control of their destiny through deep thinking.
