Kidnapping stop loss --- when you are being held hostage

Every time I saw someone in the movie pointing a gun to the victim’s relatives and asking them to put the gun down, or kidnapping for blackmail, I would consider what I would do if I changed to me. ? Although this kind of thing is unlikely to be encountered. But if you encounter it, it will be a matter of fact and cannot be considered. Otherwise you will die. So some thinking must be done.
Presumably most people will lose their minds, cry in their arms, feel weak in their feet, choose to compromise, and choose to put down their guns. Choose to be at the mercy of the other party and pay the ransom. I have also seen direct shots where the bullets pass by the heads of the hostages and the robbers headshot; there are also cases where the ransom is turned into a bonus to offer a reward to the criminal. I believe that I will choose not to compromise and to rebel against the object. At least it's like shooting a hostage in the leg at the speed of life and death.
Anyway, one thing must be right. In these situations, we must calm down as soon as possible. Reverse thinking, consider from the enemy's standpoint, and objectively analyze: When you put down your gun, and when you pay the ransom, do they have a reason to let you go or put you back hostage? At least half the probability is not. If you put down your gun, most of you will die first. When you are crying, give as much as you want, do what you want, and wherever you want the transaction to be, do you think they have a reason to keep the contract? Do they have a reason to speak credit and keep their promises? If you do that, it will basically lead to a shortage of people and money.
Therefore, a bottom line must be set in advance. No matter how high the bottom line is, it must be set. It is equivalent to the stop loss in securities trading. The first lesson and the first step of the operation of securities trading should be to set the stop loss, and always implement it in the current transaction, no matter how much the price drops, it cannot be modified. Until it is shaken out, or profitable. We must not fall into a quagmire because we can't bear the gains and losses of one city and one pool, and endlessly compromise like the market. The so-called trapped people we often hear are people who don’t know how to trade at all, because they don’t even understand the most basic cut-offs and stop losses. Those who are unwilling to set up stop losses are those who don’t know how to make a deal. , The position will soon be swallowed up by the market. Only decisively abandoning a small part of the position and starting over is the right way to regain vitality and restore the disadvantages.
Therefore, being extorted due to kidnapping is the same. You have to set the worst ending you can accept in advance. Never let the other side at the mercy of the bottom line. In order for the hostage to come back, you have to be mentally prepared for it's failure to come back, and let the gangster know that even if the hostage can't come back, I can still accept it. Only in this way will the chances of the hostage be rescued increase.
Keep calm and tough, and let the other person feel that you are missing, so that you don't get caught by the other person's weakness and do whatever they want. And get the corresponding initiative and voice.
And setting a stop loss and setting a bottom line does not mean that you are reluctant to pay or sacrifice for the hostages, but you cannot let the gangsters do whatever they want over and over again, because once he thinks he can do whatever he wants, he There is no reason to put back the hostages and keep the contract, or the ransom transaction will become extremely complicated and lengthy. You will be tortured and exhausted. In the end, you can't get anything back, or you will lose your own life if you don't get it right.
Whether it's a bounty criminal in a chain conspiracy, or a Maori shot at Xiaolan's mother in an episode of "Speed" or "Conan", or a decisive and decisive killing of the opponent in "Death of the Dead", it is very good to offer. Positive textbook for reference.
Only by making the most reasonable choice based on your own ability, courage, and current situation can you save the hostages and protect yourself, so you must think about it.
First of all, you must set your own bottom line, that is, stop loss, consider clearly what you feel cannot be compromised, and implement it to the end. For example, you must never put down the gun if you have a gun in your hand, the ransom cannot exceed a certain amount, and you cannot let the gangsters. Asking to do something, or not being led by the gangster to turn around=According to the tips of so many kidnapping movies: The
gun is usually never put down in the first place, (of course if you have one) It is easy to understand: once put down, he does not Reasons not to kill you and the hostages (this is usually not blackmailing money in this case); the amount of
ransom cannot be increased by the gangster, and a fixed amount cannot be changed. Otherwise, such a person is insatiable. Once you agree to the amendment, he will do it. The lion spoke again and again.
We will all see in the movie that the gangsters constantly change their trading locations to prevent being arrested by the police, dragging the victims around, and the end result is often the loss of money. Or finally anger the gangster and kill them directly. I think this kind of behavior is tantamount to giving the gangster a psychological hint that you will obey him, so all actions are directed by him. Obviously, the result is that even if he gets the money, he doesn't bother to risk giving the person back to you. Therefore, first of all, he should be tougher in his attitude and not give him the feeling that the hostages are inevitable to lose. In this way, it is possible to save the hostages. Otherwise, at the mercy of them, it will not only drag down oneself but also indulge the other party, so in advance The location should be fixed and the transfer should not exceed 3 times, otherwise the agreement will be terminated. The gangsters are often motivated by profit. If you have a tough attitude, you will not be able to catch your weakness. For the money, you can only choose the transaction, otherwise it will be delayed. That's it!
In addition, when you have a gun in your hand and are threatened to put down by the opponent, not only can you not put it down, you should take the above-mentioned plan: the strong man breaks his arm (decisively shoots the hostage’s leg, so that the hostage cannot escape with the gangster.) If you treat yourself No matter how good his marksmanship is, he is confident that he can kill the opponent directly.
People are often afraid of losing, but once this is the case, they will seize the weakness for the other party. Therefore, a stop loss must be set up. You can neither ignore everything, let it be at the mercy of the price, and try to break the arm at a critical time.
Of course these are difficult to do, but you can gradually practice from the usual little things. A little bit of learning to calm down. Learn to set a stop loss and learn to be tough.

    Good movie, but a bit fake.

    It seems to be neglected. I don't know how much better Ron Howard would be if he relied on this to film The Da Vinci Code.
