Button theory of life 人生扣子论 (ren sheng kou zi lun)

President Xi Jinping visited Peking University on Youth Day and urged students to follow the core socialist values to help create a better social atmosphere. During his talks with the students, Xi compared the process of establishing upright values with fastening one's buttons, saying: "If thprimarye first button is not fastened correctly, the rest will never find their rightful place."

The "button theory of life" is quite innovative and inspiring. If an official has, from the very beginning, decided to use his/her career to amass wealth, he/she is bound to commit a mistake that will eventually and inevitably lead him/her astray into the pits of corruption, which could land him/her in jail.
