"Human survival is a painful struggle. Every second of life is fighting against death, and this is a struggle doomed to fail." After the
college entrance examination, it was two points higher than the admission score. China Agricultural University that is risky. The result was dropped, and then transferred to ** University. I studied international trade by mistake. I can't talk about liking or disliking. From the beginning, I was heartless and indifferent to my studies and university life. Once I chatted with a good girl in junior high school and talked about her ideals. She said that her ideal is to write a movie script. I said that my ideal is not ideal. She said that I have no ambition. I asked her what she wanted to write in the script, but she could not speak for a long time.
Our major in International Trade was originally a so-called job-promising major in which the school expanded its enrollment and increased the number of students. In fact, to put it bluntly, the school can make more money.
Since this era is heartless, why can't I be heartless? Speaking of ideals, the generation of ours who has lost historical ties, and who have grown up in globalization and the rapid control of the whole of China by the commodity economy, still have the confusion and ideals similar to Haizi Gucheng? My dear director friend? For me, the suicide at Shanhaiguan, Hebei Province on March 26, 1989, may herald the demise of ideals in China, at least most of them.
I have almost no impression of the teacher who teaches it. Because there are not many textbooks I went to, even if there were, I probably didn't look up much. Until one day I woke up from sleepy eyes and discovered that there was such a person as Professor Chen in our school. That class, the moment I woke up just in time for his 1988.
In 1988, Teresa Teng’s singing had been popular on the bustling streets for several years. Professor Chen, who stood at thirty, no, he was not a professor at that time. Thirty-year-old Xiao Chen got married and had children. With a mind and a sexually adventurous nature, he smelled a wave of turbulence that was about to change the fate of the entire Chinese people. In fact, as Xiao Chen vaguely felt, that year, the preparations for the securities market kicked off. Those Chinese who have the courage to change their destiny have indeed ushered in their era. An arrogant seed in Xiao Chen's heart began to germinate.
In 1990, Xiao Chen went south to Shenzhen, and began to work hard towards his goal in the land of China that initially welcomed the world. With the help of his fellow villagers, Xiao Chen opened up some relationships, registered his name under a foreign trade company, and started foreign trade by himself. The nimble Xiao Chen took a unique approach, selling Japanese beet dregs and using it as fodder in Japan. In the past, the Chinese never thought that beet residue could make money even after they died, and it was a lot of money.
Beginning in 1990, as soon as the Spring Festival came, Xiao Chen brought all things home, watches, mobile phones, computers, and bought everything he could buy. By 1995, Xiao Chen had already bought three commercial houses.
This is a crazy 5 years, saying that it is not long, saying that it is not short 5 years, Xiao Chen’s belly slowly bulged out, and the 7-year-old daughter put on the most expensive children’s clothing in the mall and the best one in his hometown. In an elementary school, Xiao Chen drove a newly-bought Honda to pick up her daughter from the elementary school, but her daughter was timidly afraid to get in the car. She felt strange to her father.
Xiao Chen, who has some impressions of historical events such as the Cultural Revolution and anti-rightists, knows the kind of power that can influence the fate of people in an instant. However, what he did not expect is that the hand of changing the fate of personal life is still extended. he. It invades quietly. Invisible and quickly took everything away.
In 1997, the Thai baht crisis broke out and spread throughout Southeast Asia. The exchange rates of various countries repeatedly hit historical lows, and the stock market continued to fall. Under the changes in the exchange rate system, the exchange rates of Southeast Asian currencies have repeatedly hit record lows. At the same time, affected by the decline in currency exchange rates, the stock markets of Southeast Asian countries have continued to plummet. On October 17, after holding on to the Southeast Asian financial turmoil for nearly four months, Taiwan abandoned its peg to the U.S. dollar and declared free float, which caused a severe setback in Taiwan’s foreign exchange market and Taiwan’s stock market. From October 20 to October 28, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index fell below the 10,000 mark from 13,601 points, a drop of 33.4%.
Unprepared, a good friend of Xiao Chen's acquaintance went bankrupt in Hong Kong, and committed suicide by jumping off the building on his balcony the next day of bankruptcy. Too late to sigh with sadness, Xiao Chen can only describe what happened next in two words.
Entering November, the Southeast Asian financial crisis hit South Korea and Japan. Japan’s Yamaichi Securities announced its bankruptcy on November 24 due to 106.5 billion yen in foreign exchange losses and 158.3 billion yen in securities trading losses. The Tokyo stock market fell sharply and the Asian financial turmoil spread to Japan.
In 1998, Xiao Chen, who sold sugar beet dregs to Japan, lost more than 2 million yuan in a week.
The insurance company started to come to him for a claim. The claimant came to Xiao Chen's office. The office was messy and the secretary disappeared. Xiao Chen stayed in the original comfortable chair of the boss. Xiao Chen, who had lost a lot of weight in the past week, looked like a dish, his eyes dull and speechless. At this moment, he has no money left.
There is another way, that is, the three sets of commercial houses. But the last bit of stubbornness left by Xiao Chen is still there. He figured out how to not mortgage the house. If these three houses are gone, then he really has nothing.
According to the law, as long as the relevant laws prove that he does not have any mortgageable assets, he does not need to return it. The shrewd Xiao Chen still thought of a way. He assigned the ownership of the house to his wife, as well as his wife's brother and sister. Then he returned to his hometown and divorced his wife "falsely". The divorce application stated that there were no divisible assets. At the moment when the chapter was stamped on the divorce certificate, Xiao Chen felt that there was still hope.
In this way, a catastrophe did not completely defeat Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen returned to his hometown and began to look for opportunities in his hometown. He was unwilling to be defeated just like that.
After a hard year, Xiao Chen returned home tiredly one day. When Xiao Chen took out the key to open the door, he found that the key could not be inserted into the keyhole. He shook his heart for a moment, and called a house across the door. His wife responded coldly but confidently: "We have been divorced for a year, and this is not your home now."
His wife hung up the microphone, Xiao Chen Kick the door hysterically, howl, cry. Xiao Chen didn't cry when he lost 1 million overnight, but now crying desperately. He didn't expect that the times changed him, as well as his wife's heart. When the financial turmoil swept the market, money also swept women's hearts earlier. It even swept love, morality, and even the conscience of people.
Xiao Chen staggered out of the residential area and spent the night in a dilapidated and empty warehouse. The moon that night was unusually bright, and it was projected onto Xiao Chen through the window, teardrops fell, dripping on Xiao Chen's thigh, and a piece of pants was wet. Dip into the skin through the pants. It was utterly cold. At that moment, Xiao Chen thought of death.
At dawn the next day, Xiao Chen stayed awake all night. Like a wild beast, he ran out of the warehouse. He bought a Cheng Liang's kitchen knife in a small supermarket at the corner of the street.
Xiao Chen, who is guarding the bushes of the community, is no longer Xiao Chen, but a leopard and a lion, with gazes in his eyes that can no longer be described by simple words like hatred.
When his woman, his former lover, to be precise, his ex-wife appeared, he almost rushed out, and at the moment he drew his sword, he saw his daughter. The daughter is wearing a bright red dress, just behind her mother.
The leopard, who had lost his mind, retreated. Tears welled up again.
It was the bright and beating red, Xiao Chen reflected that he was still alone. He still has a reason to fight, that is his daughter, his flesh and blood.
That day, Xiao Chen found his old classmate in embarrassment, borrowed some money, came to the train station, and embarked on a new journey.
He came to the northern city of ** University, returned to the university he had attended, and was admitted to the doctorate. Then I taught and met our group of students.
When I looked at Professor Chen, he couldn't tell the age at all when he was fifty years old. He is more elegantly dressed than the average university teacher, with a delicate shirt and a straight collar.
"It's just starting from scratch." Professor Chen smiled when he said this, and his tone was so plain that he couldn't be more plain. The end of get out of class bell rang. Professor Chen just finished telling a story from a newspaper, holding a briefcase. Out of the classroom. The female students in the class have cried into tears.
What has changed China in these three decades? In reform and opening up, emancipate the mind and seek truth from facts. What is the fate of individual Chinese nationals under this slogan. How do people in this era live? How the times manipulate people, the answer lies in every ordinary person's day.
