Even though the more pain a person overcomes, the more likely they are to achieve greater success, Ma Lin doesn't want to see the research groups he sponsors facing so much pain from society, work, and family every day.
First, he hopes everyone stays happy.
Secondly, he hopes that when people are in a good mood, they are full of energy, giving their all, rather than becoming arrogant, lazy, and spreading all kinds of negative energy every day.
For example, he really dislikes the theory of talent. Do researchers have talent? Yes, they do. Indeed, some people find it easier to become famous and produce work than others. People without talent do have to work harder, but pursuing dreams demands sacrifices; otherwise, it goes against the rules of society, ultimately causing many troubles for oneself.
