Why 1+ 1=3?

When you ask someone "Under what circumstances 1+ 1 =3". Most people must think this is a "brain teaser" problem, or it is a philosophical problem of "a glass of water plus a glass of water" and "a pile of sand plus a pile". But will there be a "3"? Some people even thought of the answer of "one man, one girl and one child"! Actually, it's not that complicated at all. Just a math problem in primary school! Mathematics at the primary school level is close to 1/3 and less than 1+ 1=3, from 1. 1- 1.4 (I only use it now. By analogy, how many combinations are there from 1. 1- 1.4? It can be 1. 1+ 1.4, or 1.4, 1.3+ 1.4, as long as the result is greater than or equal to 2.5 or above.

Excluding the numbers 1 and 1.5, the probability is less than 1/3. Because the real "1+ 1" can only be = 2; And "1.5+ 1.5" is really =3!

Under the above conditions, "1+ 1.5" can't be established, and "1.5" becomes "2" when 4 gives up and 5 enters. However, what we are saying here is "1+ 1=3"! When it comes to social interaction, there are even more problems. "1+ 1=3" is established in mathematics, but it is also common in real society. Actually, "1+ 1=3", is this "3" really a "3"?

At the same time, the probability of "1+ 1=3" is valid when 4+5 comes into play. Then the probability of 1/3 is also "1+ 1= 1"! Think again: above 0.5, is it "1" when 4-5 comes into play? Therefore, since it is acknowledged that "1+ 1=3" is established, it must be acknowledged that "1+ 1" is also established! In our shameless society, most people are vested interests of "1+ 1=3" and are in high spirits. But when he is sometimes simplified to "1+ 1= 1", he shouts "unfair"!

This is a Chinese-style "plunder law", and the "quilt cover" in society ... is this principle. Similarly, there are some shameless people who deliberately forget how he got his "3" and take it for granted that 3+3=6, but is his "3" really 3? He said at "1+ 1=3": "How can there be so much fairness in this world?" However, when he uses this "3" to do "3+3", the result can only be "=5". He jumped out and said "unfair"!

We in Guangzhou usually say "we are thirsty for salted fish" and northerners say "we are willing to gamble and admit defeat", which is a correct outlook on life. But can China people do it now? Ask others to be "1+ 1=2" and think of yourself as "1+ 1=3". When it comes to "1+ 1= 1" that happens to others, just say, "How can there be so much fairness in this world?" Some officials also openly said: "If there is so much fairness in the world, what is it?" ? ! (Typical China characteristics) "But when you are in the situation of" 1+ 1= 1 ",you shout" unfair "! Don't forget, you did the first grade and others did the fifteenth. But China people always think of "losing and winning"! Someone asked me: What does this "1+ 1=3" have to do with photography? Why do you always ask this question in the process of taking the apprentice exam (exemption)?

This is very common in landscape photography, and many truly immortal works adopt this technique, that is, the technique of "moving the focus forward to' expand' the depth of field". It's just that each author has a different expression according to his own cognition and understanding. At the same time, if the author is so straightforward, it will only attract the disapproval of most people. When I was studying photography in Guangzhou Vocational College of Engineering, Mr. Tan taught us this photography technique in the landscape photography class, but it was considered as "nonsense" (not public, but private). Because this creative technique itself is to take advantage of people's visual errors. The essence of artistic creation is visual artistic communication.

The question I've always wanted to ask is not whether this person knows or understands this photography technique or truth, but whether his thinking can jump out of the circle of ideas inherent in ordinary people. More importantly, let him understand: don't complicate the original simple things!
