The rain is getting heavier.

He Yuan knelt on the ground, his clothes already wet.

After he finished chattering, he straightened up and kowtowed three times in front of the tombstone.

After snorting, He Yuan took out the rune paper and lit it in front of the tombstone.

The black ashes of the burning rune paper flew into the sky with the heat.

He Yuan opened the bottle of liquor again and sprinkled it back and forth in front of the tombstone.

In my memory, my mother would occasionally drink some liquor, not much, but a little bit each time.

After finishing this, He Yuan got up from the ground and began to pack his things.

"Mom, I'm going back, I'll come to see you next time. ”

After saying this, He Yuan dragged a little tired pace and left the cemetery.

Coming out of the cemetery, He Yuan tightened his clothes and felt a little chill in his body.

The temperature in winter was already very low, and He Yuan was drenched in rain again, most of them caught a cold.

Driving home quickly, He Yuan took a shower and changed into pajamas.

Even so, He Yuan still sneezed several times, and his nose was a little blocked.

Most likely it's a cold.

When people are sick, they like to hide at home.

Looking at the air in a daze, I didn't want to do anything.

Tang Duoduo came over with a little pinch.

Holding a small umbrella and twisting a plastic bag in her hand, she pushed the door in.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw He Yuan wearing bloated pajamas, sitting on a rocking chair in front of the door, holding a thermos cup in his hand, shaking it on the chair, like a seventy or eighty-year-old man.

"Why are you here. ”

Tang Duoduo was taken aback, he was a silent person, and he thought he had seen a ghost.

He Yuan was in a daze, and after hearing Tang Duoduo's voice, he came back to his senses, picked up the teacup and took a sip, his voice was a little hoarse: "You are here." ”

Tang Duoduo went to the eaves and put away the umbrella. She glanced at He Yuan's lazy appearance, reached out and touched his forehead, and frowned: "Why do you catch a cold again." ”

"Do you have a cold? It's okay, I'm used to it. He Yuan waved his hand carelessly.

He was not in good health, and he had to have a minor illness at the end of three days.

Especially when it comes to the change of seasons, you can catch a cold once a week and last for a week at a time.

It's not going to get any better.

"Don't sit here, it's windy, it's cold. Go to the house, I'll get you some medicine. Tang Duoduo took He Yuan's hand and was about to pull him up.

"It's okay, let me sit for a while, it's too stuffy in the room. He Yuan shook his head.

"Then I'll go get you a blanket. Tang Duoduo saw that he couldn't drag He Yuan, so he could only enter the house and come out with a blanket.

Cover He Yuan with a blanket, carefully expose his two hands, and hold the warm thermos cup.

From a distance, He Yuan looks like an old man who is over 90 years old, unable to move his hands and feet, and is about to die.

The little one was sleeping in the house.

On this day, even a cat knows what cold is.

After hearing the movement, the little guy got up from the nest, shook his body, and walked to Tang Duoduo with cat steps. It circled around Tang Duoduo, making a "meow" sound from time to time, stretching out its neck and rubbing against her legs.

"It likes you. He Yuan glanced at it and said.

Although the little one is still young, he already has the characteristics of a cat owner.

Except for He Yuan, it rarely gets close to others. When Peng Peng's colleagues came over, they wanted to hug it, but they were all disgusted and avoided it.

Tang Duoduo glanced at the little guy, his eyes were a little complicated.

She hesitated, then reached out and stroked its head.

The little guy fell to the ground and rolled over, revealing his soft belly and flattering.

Looking at its dog-legged look, He Yuan smiled angrily and funny: "Slippery head." ”

Tang Duoduo got up, twisted the plastic bag in his hand, and said, "I'm going to cook." ”

"By the way, you didn't go to school today?" He Yuan stopped her.

"Nope. Tang Duoduo entered the kitchen and responded casually while taking out the dishes.

"Let's go to school tomorrow, make up for the lessons, and call me if there is any problem. ”

"Oh. Tang Duoduo responded.

After saying this, there was a sudden silence between the two.

Sometimes people get along with each other in such a situation.

Let's talk, I don't know what to say, it's embarrassing. Don't speak, the atmosphere is a little silent and awkward.

Like Peng Peng and Tian Rui, even if they don't talk and play their own games, they won't feel cold, and there are really few people around.

So He Yuan hates to meet strangers.

"By the way, what do you think of being an art student? He Yuan said.

Tang Duoduo's situation, He Yuan also knows a little bit.

To say that she has poor grades is already to praise her - she has no such thing as grades at all.

Even if she is given a better high school, it will be difficult to keep up with the progress of the school with her foundation.

High school is not the same as junior high school, and high school is exposed to more things and more esoteric.

In addition, the competitiveness of good schools is very large, when He Yuan used to be in the second middle school, there were various tests and exams every day, as well as mid-term exams and final exams, and each exam had a ranking, which should be posted in the school's newspaper column and shown to all students.

Don't talk about the good test, that's equivalent to glory.

If you don't do well in the exam, it hurts, it's like torture.

He Yuan used to have a few classmates with the lowest academic performance in his class, and every time the results were announced, they had to walk around the newspaper column, for fear of seeing their names at the end.

"Art and sports students, I don't have any ideas. Tang Duoduo began to wash the vegetables.

In the winter, the water is icy and bitterly cold.

Tang Duoduo tested the water temperature and felt that he couldn't stand it, so he put on plastic gloves.

However, even through the gloves, the water temperature was still very low, and He Yuan saw that her fingers were frozen red.

"Turn on hot water, there's gas. He Yuan mentioned it next to him.

He sat in a chair, his body limp, and he didn't want to move.

"Forget it, the hot water is going to soften the leaves. Tang Duoduo shook his head.

He Yuan shrugged his shoulders and did not continue the topic: "Don't you want to be an anchor, learn to be a broadcast host, and you can follow the path of an anchor in the future." ”

"Anchor, isn't the live broadcast already cold, what future is there for being an anchor? Tang Duoduo shook his head.

"The market has not been good recently, but since the industry has risen, there are always a few who can come out. He Yuan touched his chin.

The recent turmoil over layoffs in major companies has spilled over into various industries.

From Meituan's layoffs, to Foxconn's layoffs, to the collapse of live broadcast platforms in arrears.

A series of events shook all industries.

He Yuan's circle of friends also followed the commotion, and almost every day he could brush up on all kinds of news, all kinds of forwards, all the events, comments, and analyses, all of which were conveying a message to everyone - the cold winter is really coming.

He Yuan even saw several bigwigs in the industry who rarely spoke, and they all made exceptions and wrote a few manuscripts, such as "How to deal with the Internet crisis", "Opportunities under the cold winter", "How to survive the cold winter of the Internet" and other similar titles, which attracted everyone's crazy forwarding.

The originally impetuous circle suddenly seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, and everyone became quiet, and everyone was in danger.

Even job hopping is much less.

Originally, in He Yuanjia's industry group, there were more than a dozen companies forwarding recruitment every day, and some companies had not even recruited people for two or three months, including NetEase, Ali and other large enterprises.

Especially for those large enterprises, if you give an outsourcing post, people are not willing to go, and there are many people who can't be recruited for a few months, or even half a year.

But now all of them are silent.

Occasionally, a few job postings come out, and the conditions given are very low.

In the past, they all started with 8,000 and 10,000, but now they have all dropped to 3,000 or 4,000.

Even so, the job was quickly gone.

Just like Peng Peng said, in the past, headhunters were looking for them, and companies poached them.

Now how to keep your job and avoid being kicked out in the cold winter.

Even if it is a kind of Ranran, the education is not low, the qualifications are very beautiful, and I have been in two large companies and large enterprises for so many years, it can be said that all the thresholds are unimpeded, and I can be regarded as the backbone of the elite who goes to any company, and now I dare not change jobs at will.

Not having a job for a few months is still a trivial matter, and if the mortgage and car loan are broken, then the problem is big.

But none of this has anything to do with He Yuan.

He had predicted this question a year or two ago.

Just like he thought before, it wasn't that the cold winter came too violently and too quickly.

It's that everyone's good life has been going on for too long.

Let's take the salary as an example, when He Yuan was in college, that is, seven or eight years ago, his father's monthly salary was only two or three thousand. At that time, the people around me, everyone's income was generally this number, more than 4,000 was considered a high salary, and more than 5,000 or 6,000, it was simply a white-collar elite.

At that time, the housing price in my hometown was only two or three thousand, and the housing price in Chengdu was six or seven thousand.

So at that time, everyone was not too worried about buying a house, and occasionally there were a few who were worried, and they were just thinking about whether to pay in full or in installments.

However, most people are willing to pay in full, after all, most of the Chinese people in those years were relatively simple, and felt that the risk of taking out a loan to buy a house was too high, and it was too much loss - to give hundreds of thousands more, they couldn't earn this amount for several years after working tirelessly.

As a result, in recent years, housing prices have skyrocketed, and the vast majority of people do not have the luxury of buying a house in full, and they can afford to pay the down payment and have spent six wallets. Of course, prices have risen, and wages have risen with them.

When He Yuan officially worked, it was about one or three years, and the vice president of his first company had a monthly salary of only about 12,000, which was already a very high salary. The boss's salary is only 145,000, and he can already be regarded as a bigwig in the industry.

As a result, only three years have passed, and He Yuan's own salary has jumped to 30,000 yuan before tax, not counting equity and bonuses.

The maximum salary has more than doubled.

Followed by a variety of novel industry blowouts, what self-media, game competitions, live broadcasts, purchasing agents, Internet celebrities...... Almost all of them start with an annual salary of tens of millions.

It seems that this year, your annual income is not more than 10 million, and you are just a dick.

While everyone was in a carnival, He Yuan had been thinking about a question.

Can these industries really make so much money?

If not, then the money ...... Where did it come from?
