In May 1980, the most sensational event was probably the publication of a letter signed by Pan Xiao in the magazine "National Youth" - "The Road of Life, How to Go Narrower and Narrower".

This article, which reflects the distress and confusion of the runaway youth, almost stirred up the peace of the republic for the whole summer.

In the end, a big discussion of more than 60,000 letters and drafts was detonated.

It can be said that the hearts of young people across the country are attracted and touched by this fictional character, real emotions, and dilemma.

Countless people have offered advice to "Pan Xiao".

He even did not hesitate to send him parcels and money to offer his sympathy and love.

In fact, the reason why it has caused such a strong social repercussion is not so much that our young people have valuable compassion.

It is more appropriate to say that in such a context, it is more appropriate for this letter to connect young people with themselves and have a parasitic effect.

Although not everyone is on the wrong path.

However, in such an era of unprecedented change, almost everyone has encountered difficulties and hardships that are unimaginable to people today.

In this process, the confusion about the trials of life and the feeling of helplessness in the face of adversity are the same for everyone.

Right now, the big guys urgently need to rediscover their social positioning, and the appeal is the same.

To put it honestly, it is not easy for everyone to live in the moment.

It's just that it's more difficult for young people who have lost their footing, especially girls who have taken the wrong path.

Like Ning Weimin, he also feels the same way.

A very real problem is that he can't do what he really wants to do, and he is so aggrieved that he panics.

To be honest, in fact, even the idea of being a taxi driver is a secondary choice for Ning Weimin in desperation.

In terms of his heart, what he really expects is to rely on the capital in his hand to quickly do himself and become a fallen master.

He is not afraid of worldly prejudices and has more insight and ability.

He absolutely believes that as long as he does anything, he will definitely make a lot of money.

And in this year, as long as the cash in his hand turns.

Not to mention stamps, he can buy more good things.

In the future, he will become the richest man in the capital and become a collector like "Teacher Ma".

Even surpassing the "status of the rivers and lakes" of "Teacher Ma" is not difficult.

He really wanted to see how he put out a few things casually, and he was so greedy that Mr. Ma was reluctant to let go.

Unfortunately, no.

He never imagined that it was already the third year of reform, and the policy restrictions on self-employed people would be so great.

Take this month as an example, on May 5, the Beijing Administration for Industry and Commerce just issued a notice.

It is said that the policy on self-employed industrial and commercial households should be relaxed, and it will be agreed that unemployed young people and retired workers should engage in self-employment according to the needs of society.

But how much has the specific business scope been relaxed?

In fact, in addition to shoe repair, bicycle repair, hairdressing, sewing and other industries.

The only new additions were the repair of houses, shoe shine, tricycle transportation, and letter writing.

Look, it's all coolies and crafts.

Pure retail is still a speculative category.

So that's a no-brainer.

The door of the commodity economy has only opened a small gap, and he can't squeeze through it for the time being.

If you don't want to endure it, you have to endure it, and if you don't want to wait, you have to wait.

As for the two job options offered by the district, which seemed to be quite good to others, he didn't like any of them.

"Polar Bear" food factory as a worker?

He respects the workers, but he doesn't worship them as much as the people of his age.

And it's too far from home, too long to work, and a lot of work.

Staying in the workshop every day, it must be uncomfortable, and it is not warm in the east and cool in the summer.

Although it is convenient to drink soda, the salary is more than that of other factories.

Can he still care about this in his current economic conditions?

It is said that the "Polar Bear" production line is still a legacy of 20 years ago, and today peeling oranges is still done by hand.

When it comes to the orange season, the oranges in the factory can be piled up like a mountain, and the hands of the workers can be broken.

Is this a good errand?

Of course, the factory has the ability to build its own houses and distribute them to the workers, which is of course a good benefit.

Can he be qualified as a new ding, when will he be able to talk about it?

Besides, who is he? Is he the one who waits for the rabbit?

As long as the private housing policy is loosened, he will definitely take the initiative to buy two sets of courtyard houses to pass the addiction of the mansion.

Going to work as a waiter at the Chongwenmen Hotel?

That's a lot easier than being a worker, and it's close to home.

Even now, the service industry is very confident.

Not only do you not have to give customers a smile, but you can even have fun with customers casually.

But in the end, the service industry is an errand for people, and the nature of the work has determined this.

It's hard to say.

He also remembered that a French writer had written in which book.

It doesn't matter if you say that you are down-and-out and poor, you must not do the work of showing your face to serve people.

Because over time, those who are superior will no longer look at you as equals.

So from this point of view, it is better to pick up the rags in the service industry.

Of course, our republic is now a time of great heroes, regardless of their origins.

We people will not be as philistine as Westerners, and we have our own unique interpretation of a person's success.

But he is destined to become famous in the future and appear on the international stage to fool foreigners.

One day, he will be on the cover of Time magazine with his panda.

Just being picked up by those foreign paparazzi with such a background is always a bit of a disgraced side effect.

He also wants Soros and Buffett to spend a lot of money on the opportunity to have lunch with him.

This will undoubtedly mess up the deal and affect his worth.

All in all, for Ning Weimin, these two jobs are just like that, and they don't make much sense.

But what can he do in the current social environment?

I can only do it casually first, and make do with it for two years.

He had to wait until the business ecosystem evolved to allow him to do something personally, before he could really make a big difference.

Hey, this is called the uselessness of heroes.

actually put Lao Tzu alive and stepped on the colorful auspicious clouds, and the top of his brain was a brilliant speculative genius.

I was forced to become a salaryman and had to work to make a living.

Heaven is safe, woo and sad......

There is no doubt that in Ning Weimin's own heart, he is as bleak as a flower and as gloomy as a glass of wine.

It's just that I'm afraid to compare things with each other.

This wine was drunk in the second half, and it was purely a grievance meeting for Bian Jiangong alone.

It was really a bleak life, sad and lonely.

Ning Weimin couldn't persuade him if he wanted to, and he couldn't insert it.

He looked at Bian Jiangong, who had lost his ambition because of life, not only felt extremely pitiful, but also had a different taste in his heart.
