Without showing any emotion, Qiao Yu was actually slightly excited inside—the sugar-coated cannonballs of capitalism had finally started to hit him hard!
It's not an exaggeration to say that ever since he encountered the term sugar-coated cannonballs in a morals lesson, Qiao Yu has been looking forward to the day when these cannonballs would be aimed at him.
This way, he could begin to devise how to eat the sugar coating and return the cannonball.
No matter what others think, in Qiao Yu's view, this is true morality.
Everything must be applied flexibly.
For example, morality is actually a system. The moral logic followed by the East and the West has always been different.
Especially in the current context where both sides are primarily antagonistic, decisively rejecting sugar-coated cannonballs would be irresponsible to one's own side.
