Chapter 269: With Great Power comes great Responsibility
It's rare for ordinary people to be able to talk smoothly in front of the big boss, but Mu Chen doesn't have any impact at all, just like chatting with the old man next door, there is no tension at all, and the tone is casual.
Don't look at Mu Chen and the big boss discussing the matter of tea, in fact, the temptation between the two has begun.
The big boss asked Mu Chen what kind of tea he was drinking, just to see what kind of attitude he had, so that he could determine the negotiation method in the subsequent conversation.
And Mu Chen did not hesitate to say that he knew nothing about tea, and said that tea was not as good as white water to quench his thirst, that is, to show his attitude, he was unwilling to wade into this troubled water, he simply did himself, and he was not interested in what the big boss wanted to say and did not have the ability.
This attitude really gives the big boss a headache, they all say that people have no desire and are strong, but there are few people who can really do not like things and not feel sorry for themselves, but this Muchen is young, he is already indifferent to fame and fortune, and he has no interest in politics at all.
And Mu Chen's attitude towards the big boss is also very subtle, with a hint of casualness in the respect, which means that Mu Chen respects the age and ability of the big boss, and is not too in awe of his identity, and even has a trace of rebellious resistance.
This is also related to Mu Chen's growth environment, born in the slums since he was a child, he has a subconscious disgust for these officials who are in high positions but can't let the people live a good life, and he has come from the bottom to his current position step by step, but he has never climbed any power, relying on his true ability, since he doesn't owe you anything, then there is no need to have a sense of awe.
It was his attitude that made all the officials who had come into contact with Mu Chen helpless, and the big boss also felt that things were a little tricky, this young combat hero had a deep-seated resistance and vigilance against politicians, and there was no point of persuasion at all to persuade him.
Mu Chen's feeling to the big boss is that the turtle wrapped in layers is wearing a thick layer of armor on its body, and it is maintaining a high degree of vigilance, guarding against the influence of others on him.
In fact, Mu Chen has no hostility towards the big boss, but he was bullied very badly by these politicians in the Earth Federation before, and he almost whimpered, and finally escaped death, but he didn't dare to trust these people, otherwise he would definitely be fooled.
The person who fell with a blue nose and swollen face and hit the south wall and didn't look back is a fool, Mu Chen just wants to live his little life in peace now, so he doesn't want to be used as a gun.
The big boss personally summoned him, just to persuade him to participate in the election of the federal governor, but this is exactly what Mu Chen resists the most, no matter whether the big boss does this out of public interest or selfishness, it is not something he can accept.
As long as Mu Chen gives in on this matter, he will be branded as a big boss, and in the eyes of others, Mu Chen will also be classified into the forces of Huaxia, and the anti-Chinese forces of those countries in the West can be happy to see him become ghosts.
The big boss pondered for a long time and said slowly: "Why are you so timid?" There is no youthful momentum at all. ”
"There's no way, I've been bitten by a snake for ten years and I'm afraid of the well rope, and my IQ can't compare to a politician like you. I'm worried about being tricked by you
Sold. Mu Chen said honestly.
Chen Gong, who was silently listening on the side, immediately frowned, what's the matter with this Mu Chen, he spoke with a smell of gunpowder, what does it mean to be "deceived and sold"? What is the status of the big boss, as for lying to you?
"It seems that you suffered a lot from the former Federal Governor?" The big boss asked with a grin, with a hint of playful schadenfreude on his kind face.
Mu Chen rolled his eyes angrily, I heard that I suffered a big loss, I wouldn't be so happy, right?
"Almost, a first-class eagle medal almost sent me into a desperate situation, this incident is still fresh in my memory, and I also understand a truth."
The big boss asked curiously, "What's the truth?" Tell me about ......"
This old man is a chatter, this stalk is good, and the topic is very comfortable.
"All the benefits from politicians come at a cost, and the greater the benefits, the greater the costs." Mu Chen said seriously.
"Hahaha, you kid still said that he doesn't have any political wisdom, I think just your words are enough to mix in officialdom." The big boss said happily.
Then enlightened Mu Chen and said: "Let's look at the point, in fact, international politics is the same as your hot pot restaurant, it is a transaction, but the hot pot restaurant deals with food and services, and international politics deals with greater interests, and there is no difference in essence." ”
"That's why I'm afraid to deal with politicians, these people are all interested in their eyes, without any human touch, and they can sell anyone without hesitation for the sake of profit, which feels terrifying......" Mu Chen said his feelings without concealment, and completely blocked the topic of this meeting.
Mu Chen's meaning is very clear, I can't play you old drivers, and I don't have any trust in you, no matter what you want to do with me, I am not interested, I want me to be deceived by you, there is no door.
"You kid is a bit biased, and politicians aren't all bad people." The big boss said with a frown.
Mu Chen's head shook quickly, and he said with a disgusted face: "I don't know about this, at least I haven't met such a politician." At the beginning, in order to treat my sister's illness, I don't know how many officials I begged to see if I could raise the level of Muyue's citizen a little, so that it would be convenient for me to seek medical treatment, and there was really no one willing to help me, even if there were few sympathetic people. ”
Mu Chen smiled bitterly and continued: "Otherwise, who would want to go to a wild place like Titan to beg for a living? ”
The big boss was also silent, what Mu Chen said was true, he had no excuse to explain this matter, it was their work that was not done properly, which caused this kind of thing, and now there are still many such tragedies being staged.
"Maybe as you say, politicians aren't all bad people, but unfortunately, since I was born, I haven't seen a good guy in your mouth except on the news."
"Why don't you try to change that?" The big boss finally found an entry point, since Mu Chen is not satisfied with the status quo, then he just uses the position of the chief to try to change some things, it is better to be practical than not pretentious and only talking.
"Why am I?" Mu Chen asked rhetorically:
"Don't ask me for any moral kidnapping, I'm not Nightingale, I don't want to be an angel in white who saves the world, let alone a hero who saves the world, what I can do is to try to help the people around me, and recently I have also engaged in some charity activities with my family, using the proceeds of the hot pot restaurant to help some people who are really in difficulty, this is already the limit of my ability, at least I can ensure that my charity activities are open and transparent, and I don't fill my pockets and hide dirt like some organizations."
"You can't think like that!" The big boss suddenly said with some anger: "If everyone only sweeps the snow in front of their own house, regardless of the frost on the tiles of others, then what development and progress are there to talk about?" ”
"I also listened to Xiao Chen's report on the things you said, and I have to say that your family has done a good job in your own way, but how many people can you help in this way? 120,000 or 50,000? What about the rest, they don't need help? ”
Mu Chen also frowned: "It's not my responsibility, politicians like you need to find a way, otherwise why are you officials and they are the people?" ”
Mu Chen's questioning made the big boss speechless, indeed as he said, being an official is not for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes, but it is easy to talk about it.
People are selfish, officials are also people, they will also have their own desires, and they can't help but stretch out their greedy hands in the face of interests.
Huaxia has done a good job in this regard, formulated various security systems, and taken a lot of measures, but there are still many people who have the same experience as Mu Chen, who are forced by life to survive, but most people do not have the ability and luck like Mu Chen......
"Child, don't have a grudge against this world." The big boss said bitterly, from Mu Chen's tone, the big boss heard a strong hatred and anger, this is not the mind that a broad-minded person should have.
"Big boss, if you have experienced my life and seen the things I have seen, you will be like this." Mu Chen suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to remain calm.
"Do you know what I saw on Paradise Island on my space pilot graduation mission? There is a smell of corruption and decay everywhere, and many of the big people who appear on the news all day long have fun there without any scruples, basing their happiness on the suffering of the common people, and I even know that more politicians are the umbrellas and masters behind the dark forces, but such people are able to steal high positions, you tell me, how can I not have a grudge? ”
"But it is precisely because of this that someone needs to change the world, if you don't do it, I don't do it, he doesn't do it, everyone sees it and doesn't do it, so how can you expect the world to become clean and beautiful?" The big boss said seriously.
"But what is me? I am humble and light, my foundation is unstable, my ability is insufficient, and even my academic certificates are obtained from self-study exams, there are countless people who are better than me, and have a background than me, why do you want me to be this early bird? Mu Chen asked.
"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, just because you are a good person, just because you can't get used to seeing the dark side of this world in your heart, this thing belongs to you." The big boss looked at Mu Chen's eyes seriously and said word by word.
