In fact, there are far more people who have eaten bee feces, and Dong Qianda and them are far more than them.

This period is even more restless and irrational than them.

It should be a person like Shui Lan who dreams of following the trend and wants to go abroad regardless of it.

It has been a while since the country has been closed for many years.

The introduction of a large number of domestic films, television, magazines, and imported goods has made the colorful Western world more and more stirring people's nerves.

In addition, the state's policy towards intellectuals is still only rhetorical, and the argument that "knowledge is becoming less and less valuable" is widely circulated in society.

All this has prompted the elite of the generation who have just graduated from university campuses to look down on the prospects of being trapped in state units, and all of them regard going abroad as the beginning of a better life.

This year, the number of TOEFL applicants in Beijing increased to 18,000.

This year, the documentary "The Vision of the Chinese People" shot by a scholar abroad was widely circulated in the cultural circle of Beijing.

This year, when two young people meet in major government agencies, the most common conversation has become.

"Hey, how's it going abroad?

"It's being done!"

To put it bluntly, this year's "fever for going abroad" has unconsciously reached an irrational state.

Everyone's feeling of the United States is a high-speed city, busy citizens, never-ending elevators, and endless cars on the streets.

and the huge contrast between the per capita annual income of 19,000 US dollars and the domestic 742 yuan.

In this way, a kind of extreme argument is formed that makes people fanatical and superstitious.

Whether you're doing well here or not, it's better to go out.

No matter what the relationship, any way, whatever you want, as long as you can get out.

Shui Lan is like that, although she doesn't really know much about distant foreign countries, whether they are paradise or regions.

But life abroad is full of irresistible temptations.

It's a pity, it is precisely because she has Hong Yanwu's "special care" and accompaniment.

Even though she scored 663 on the TOEFL test, she failed to pass the visa in April.

She never imagined that after weeks of preparation at home, she would endure the hardship of coming to the queue from the night before.

As a result, he was "shot" within two minutes of entering.

But the most annoying thing is not the refusal of the visa, but her failure to break through the customs, which actually made the family applaud vigorously.

Aunt Shui even made a table of sumptuous dishes to celebrate.

As for Hong Yanwu, the only one who encouraged her to continue trying, there was also a hint of hypocrisy in her advice.

He actually told her that listening to the discussion of others next to her, it seemed that there was little hope of signing for the second time, so that she was ready to fight for a long time.

This made one of her hearts fall to the bottom, and she cried for three days.

In a short period of time, it is difficult to have the courage to face the daunting scrutiny and the daunting challenge of sleeping overnight.

Similarly, reform and opening up have been carried out to a certain extent.

For a long time, other undesirable effects accumulated have also begun to diverge in a concentrated manner.

For a while, there seemed to be more and more scolding in society.

Even ordinary people who are content and happy and practice no quarrel with others are a little unbearable, and they are angry from their brains.

For example, the food service industry in Beijing has undergone a significant change this year.

Due to the continuous and exponential growth of the migrant population, the municipal facilities and service system of the capital that have not yet fully digested the problem of "educated youth returning to the city" have become more difficult to bear, and there is a serious conflict with the boiling real life needs of citizens.

Not only are the old problems of "difficulty in eating, dressing, staying in a hotel, getting a haircut, bathing, and repairing" becoming more and more prominent, but also traffic difficulties have become new problems.

In particular, there is a peculiarity of the times.

The experienced masters are not forgiving in their age, and they have gradually retired in this year, and they have begun to change apprentices to become masters.

However, the price code has risen again due to inflation.

Can this not attract a lot of complaints?

Therefore, even after the "call for the establishment of a night market", the Beijing government has made a more powerful and comprehensive call to develop municipal service facilities and the tertiary industry, so that the city's modernization has begun the first "comprehensive upgrade".

But for the common people, they are no longer as satisfied and understanding of the government's measures as they were in the past.

The key is that the quality of employees has irreversibly declined.

This is called "a litter of rats is better than a litter".

On the other hand, due to the development of the economy, people's concept of economy and money has also undergone significant changes.

From the past to talk about money, to now "the people of the country are 900 million businessmen, and there are still 100 million to be opened" can illustrate the huge change in people's hearts.

This change in mindset has led to a change in the business climate.

In particular, in recent years, as the types of commodities have begun to diversify, many commodities have become difficult to sell, and the incomes of workers in enterprises and commercial systems have begun to be linked to efficiency.

As a result, all kinds of evil and crooked ways began to emerge together, regardless of public and private.

For example, the Beijing Evening News published a letter from a reader "There is no bulk Huazi shampoo for sale" to reflect the experience of buying fakes in the night market.

It turned out that this reader bought a bottle of bulk Huazi shampoo from the "Donghuamen Night Market".

When I used it at home, I found that it was completely different from the original shampoo I bought before.

Not only is the smell very different, but the effect is also very bad.

Later, he wrote to the manufacturer, only to know that he had been deceived and bought counterfeit goods.

And the state-run stores are not much better.

A few days later, the "Beijing Evening News" published another piece of news - in a state-run department store in "Dashilar", the stock woolen sweaters sold at a discount were returned en masse by customers.

Someone dared to find that on the wrapping paper of the woolen sweater, it was written that it was an acrylic fiber product produced in Huhai.

At that time, the salesperson still refused to admit the strong words, saying, "Paper is paper, goods are goods, and paper goods have nothing to do with each other." ”

As a result, a knowledgeable customer took a lighter to test on the spot, and found that the cashmere sweater material was hard after burning, and it was determined that there was no doubt about acrylic.

The crowd at the scene couldn't help but be indignant, and the department store was willing to refund the money to these customers.

But the most serious problem actually appears in the refrigerator.

This year, the supply of refrigerators in the capital market exceeded demand.

Although the price bureau has made it clear that the price of high-end durable consumer goods such as televisions and refrigerators will not increase. The "Notice on Strengthening the Management of Refrigerator Prices" was also issued.

However, the price of the same refrigerator product on the electrical counter of different department stores is likely to be different by several hundred yuan, which is entirely because of the relationship between the "approval documents" and the price increase.

In short, people's morality seems to be unable to resist the temptation of money.

began to believe in the truth that if you can do everything, you can make money.

But that's not all, even culture and entertainment are starting to become distorted and evil.

Like cinemas, the box office performance of domestic films began to decline sharply this year.

In the first half of the year, except for the Chen father and son's "Father and Son", which had no factory standard and was almost stillborn, was very popular.

There is no domestic film that can have more than half of the attendance.

Even the projectionist felt helpless and decadent.

They are particularly wondering, why do our directors have to make movies that go to foreign countries to win awards, and Chinese people don't like to watch them?

When will we be able to make a full-fledged film like "First Blood", that's what we can do.

The broadcast of the TV series "Huhai Stall", although it met the sensory stimulation needs of the Chinese people, the scenery was unprecedented.

But the old man and the old lady of the Hong family actually minded the untruthfulness and inferior style of this drama.

Hong Lu admits that the characters, events, and even hairstyles, costumes, and language in the play do not have the "characteristics of Shanghai" at all.

The performance is not a "Shanghai stall" at all, but a "Hong Kong stall".

Wang Yunlin even felt that this TV series was a nonsense, showing only the grievances and hatreds between some courtesans, assassins, thugs, and hooligans, which would have a negative impact on children.

For this reason, the Hong family issued a special ban on the play from being played at home.

Even Hong Yanwu secretly showed Xiao Hongjun two episodes of the videotape and was caught, which made the old man and the old lady unhappy.

As a result, there was no extrajudicial embarrassment, but instead killed chickens and monkeys to set an example.

Not only did the uncle and nephew suffer for several days, but Hong Jun was also punished for brushing the bowl for a month.

After that, it was also extinct, and a gambling case broke out in Huhai immediately.

The sheer number of gamblers is astonishing, and the members include not only students, teachers, but also cadres.

The capital has also been found to have several cases of interspersing obscure movies in small video halls in the name of watching "Huhai Stall".

It's like endorsing the bad effects of this TV series.

This naturally aggravated the "sins" of Hong Yanwu and Hong Jun, making them both have to be careful at home even to catch their breath.

Look at how these days have passed, to put it mildly, I just glanced at Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng twice.

It's so depressed that it seems that there is no tomorrow.
