Chapter 18 Future Planning
Gao Zhan put the cigarette on the antique oval ashtray on the desk, and replied calmly: "Godfather, I have just entered the university now, and I haven't thought about the future yet." ”
"Everyone should have a complete plan for their life, Xiaozhan, you are now the most valuable person in front of the various intersections of many forks in the road in your life, there is time, you should think about how to choose." Li Guodong's tone was very serious and said: "Take one step, look at ten steps, this is the basic principle of the way of being an official, I remember, you seem to still have the position of the head of Baijia Village now!" ”
Gao Zhan, who has always been a little nervous, heard his godfather mention this, and then remembered that he was really on a temporary job, the old and young masters of Baijia Village felt that he had the ability and ability to lead the people in the village to get rid of poverty and become rich, the problem is that he is the village head, it seems that he has not considered this aspect of the problem for so long, sweat, sweat, waterfall sweat! Our village chief is too unresponsible!
"Godfather, actually, ......"
Li Guodong raised his hand to interrupt Gao Zhan's words, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to answer me now, wait until you think clearly, think carefully, think clearly, and think thoroughly, and then tell your godfather your answer." ”
After speaking, Li Guodong took a puff of cigarette, dusted the ash into the ashtray, and continued with a smile: "I asked you to go home today because you kid doesn't talk much, and he said that he would go home once a week, but after such a long time, you didn't even come to the phone, do you think I can't talk to your godmother?" ”
"How can it, godfather, I just think that you and your godmother are busy people, and they are involved in the government affairs of a province, how dare you disturb your second elder casually!" Gao Zhan hurriedly replied.
"Count you kid who can talk." Li Guodong scolded with a smile, then turned on a straight face and asked, "Xiao Zhan, what do you think of the word 'responsibility'?" ”
Gao Zhan pondered for a while, and replied seriously: "Godfather, I think that responsibility is the heaviest burden in life!" ”
Gao Zhan's answer was obviously a bit unexpected by Li Guodong, and he smiled with interest and motioned for his godson to continue.
"Responsibility is not only the heaviest burden in life, but also the concern of a person's life and the essence of life." Gao Zhan picked up his unfinished cigarette from the ashtray and inhaled hard, "Responsibility is a very stubborn thing, and it makes it impossible for everyone to relax. Because responsibility is also the quality of a person's life. I once read such a story in a book, and I was very shocked.
This story is about two dogs, a male dog and a female dog, who depend on each other and live together. Later, that gave birth to four puppies at once. The female dog lies on her stomach in the kennel all day long, patiently nursing her four puppies. In those days, for some reason, the owner of the dog went out for a few days and did not return, the male dog could run outside alone to find food, and the female dog was so hungry that she was skinny and shivering because she couldn't do without the puppy.
The male dog sees it in his eyes and hurts in his heart, and he has to find some food for the female dog in order to fulfill his responsibility as a 'husband'. The male dog crossed a street bridge, crossed a road, and finally found a butcher shop facing the street not far ahead. At this time, a long bone rests on the desk of the butcher's shop. The male dog thought that if he could steal this bone home, it would be enough for his partner to have a full meal.
However, the owner of the butcher shop has always stood in front of the meat case, not giving the male dog the slightest chance to take advantage of it. The male dog stood in an unnoticed corner and waited heartily. Waiting, waiting, finally having a chance, it rushed over, picked up the bone, and ran as fast as it could in the direction of home.
However, just as it was crossing the road, a truck came and knocked it far away.
The truck was gone, and the male dog was lying on the ground, bleeding from his ears, nose, and mouth, and everyone around him thought he was dead. However, after a while, the male dog struggled several times, and he finally stood up. The first thing it did when it got up was to find the bone that had fallen aside. It clutched its grip on the bone and ran home with difficulty. The is looking at the bones in her mouth with longing eyes. The male threw the bone in front of the female dog, and then fell to the ground and died......
In fact, after this male dog was hit by a truck, it was bleeding and could no longer live, but what strength supported it to wake up in the dark and give birth to the courage and strength to live? It's responsibility! It's a responsibility from the bottom of my heart. Responsibility is strength, responsibility is spirit!
Dogs still have such a sense of responsibility, and we humans, as the spirits of all things on this planet, should be the most responsible creatures in the world. When a person loses his due responsibility to his relatives, to the collective, to the society, to the country and even to the whole mankind, he probably loses his qualification to be a human being!
We live in this society, we can downplay **, downplay interests, downplay contradictions, and even downplay enjoyment, downplay suffering, but we must not downplay responsibility!
Responsibility is the recognition of our own 'role', in the face of parents, we must be responsible for the responsibility of support, in the face of spouses, we must be responsible for the responsibility of care, in the face of children, we must be responsible for the responsibility of raising children, in the face of work, we must bear the responsibility of being faithful to our duties, in the face of injustice, we must bear the responsibility of speaking up, in the face of gangsters, we must bear the responsibility of acting bravely, in the face of invasion, we must bear the responsibility of defending the homeland and the country......
With the passage of time, roles have changed, and the content of responsibilities has also changed. But no matter how it changes, the responsibility is always inextricable. To be a good person, you must be aware of your responsibilities at all times and in every move. The strength of the sense of responsibility also reflects an attitude towards life. If you lack a sense of responsibility, you will get by, steal peace, and be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day. That is cynicism, and it can only lead to negative depravity. Only by living responsibly can we live a positive life, a meaningful life, and a valuable life!
There is a price to be paid for taking responsibility. From the day we landed, we were destined to move forward with a heavy load, and the many responsibilities we bear are actually the real content of our lives, and they are also the spiritual burdens that cannot be relaxed for us. Fulfilling our responsibilities inevitably requires hardship, and sometimes we even feel physically and mentally exhausted.
If someone says that fulfilling responsibility is a kind of sweetness, and we feel happy in responsibility, then it can only be said that he only feels the meaning of responsibility, and does not understand the heaviness of responsibility.
Because if responsibility is a light process, then the responsibility will not have the seriousness and nobility of the texture.
I remember reading Zhuge Liang's "Teacher Table", which reads: ...... Since receiving the order, he has been lamenting all night, fearing that the entrustment will not work, so as to hurt the wisdom of the first emperor, so he crossed Lu in May and went deep into the hair. Now the south has been decided, the armor is sufficient, when the three armies are awarded, the north is set in the Central Plains, the Shu is exhausted, the murderer is eliminated, the Han dynasty is restored, and the old capital is returned. This minister is so reported to the emperor, and he is loyal to His Majesty's office!
This is the responsibility, with Zhuge Liang's talent in the country, in the face of responsibility is still 'sighing all night, afraid that the entrustment will not work', and I and other mediocre people, dare to say that the responsibility is lighter than the feather?
The weight of responsibility is the same as life, when reading ancient books, we often see such examples, for the sake of the country, for the sake of the government, a minister knows that 'so to say', will definitely suffer the disaster of death, but 'how dare you forget the country'? They first entrusted their families with their funeral, and then came to lay down their lives and beg for mercy. What is it? That's responsibility.
There is a person named Liu Daxia in the Ming Dynasty, "History of the Ming Dynasty" called it "Lei Luo Guangming, just Fang Liang, there are ancient ministers of the festival", when Ming Xiaozong, he was an official to the military department of Shangshu, he has a famous saying, the responsibility in the life of the important surname is quite profound: "life coffin conclusion, a day has not tasted death, that is, a worry has not ended." I think this statement is very true, as long as you live, you can't escape responsibility. Liu Daxia's words are very meaningful, he added the word "worry" in front of the word "responsibility", the "worry" in the ancient text, there are many worries, sorrows, hard work, but this sentence is juxtaposed with "worry", extremely saying that the state of responsibility at the spiritual level, or in other words, responsibility means worry, worry and hard work, is an extremely heavy practice process.
There is an idiom called 'responsibility', which means that one's own responsibility cannot be passed on to others. That is to say, responsibility means 'iron shoulders to bear morality', bitterness and happiness are left to the sky, once the responsibility is received, there is no choice, all evasion, hiding, prevarication, procrastination, deaf ears, so-so, insensitive, ruthless and unjust, are blasphemy of responsibility!
Traditional Chinese values emphasize loyalty and filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and trustworthiness.
The connotation of responsibility is too deep, the extension of responsibility is too wide, in the face of responsibility, I dare not look at it like cicada wings, as light as dust, so, before my godfather asked me what I wanted to do in the future, I said I haven't thought about it yet, because, I know, choice, is to choose responsibility! I need to go through these four years of college to determine what the responsibilities I will be responsible for in the future. ”
Li Guodong has been listening to Gao Zhan's discussion silently, he didn't expect that his godson, he actually has such a deep understanding of the word responsibility, how old is he? In his memory, he seems to have just turned twenty years old, no wonder he was able to block that shot for Mingzhe without hesitation without hesitation, a person who can treat the righteousness of his brother as a responsibility can be trusted and trusted.
It seems that I don't know enough about this godson!
In the study room full of the smell of books, the atmosphere is quite relaxed and harmonious.
Gao Zhan fully has the broad knowledge of a writer, and talks eloquently with Li Guodong, and when encountering problems with different concepts, the father and son will fight on the basis of reason and will not back down.
When it comes to sophistry, the writer can break it up more than anyone else, and he can quote scriptures and scriptures from different angles to argue.
It wasn't until Feng Qingxiu knocked on the door and called them to eat, and the first cordial meeting between Li Guodong and Gao Zhan was interrupted.
"Xiaozhan, are you all so good at writing novels?" When he was about to go out, Li Guodong asked curiously.
"To be exact, it should be a writer who writes web novels." Gao Zhan said with a smile: "Because every time we write a book, we need to consult a huge amount of information, and when we read the works written by others, it is also an invisible learning process. Many works of traditional novels express the main idea of reflecting the reality of society, while what we write online novels is to be imaginative, and make people's unsatisfactory things in reality become satisfactory, in this process, it needs to involve economy, military, history, astronomy, geography, religion, ethics, law, etc., and even Zhou Yizhong's metaphysics is also involved.
A lot of people disdainfully call web novels fast food, but in fact, it's just a fox mentality for some people. A work of millions of words is not something that ordinary people who are engaged in creation and hobbies can write if they want to! When people can calm down and read carefully, they can find that reading online novels is actually a process of re-learning encyclopedic knowledge. ”
"Any industry, if it can develop into an industrial chain, then it must have its social value and commercial value." Li Guodong nodded as he walked and said: "Xiao Zhan, remember what you just said, being a man, especially being a man, you must always remember your responsibilities, and your responsibilities are as heavy as Mount Tai!" ”
At the family banquet in the evening, it was naturally quite lively and pleasant, and Li Guodong specially asked Gao Zhan to accompany him to drink three small cups of Moutai. It can be seen that our governor is in a good mood, and he also gave a positive evaluation to the women's clothes made by Lu Ying, saying that his wife has worn the clothes for so many years, and the one he wears today is the most suitable.
After dinner, Gao Zhan chatted with his godfather and godmother in the living room for half an hour, then got up and said goodbye, saying that he had to go home at night to update the code word, and he couldn't accompany him for a long time, so he had to ask his godfather and godmother for forgiveness and understanding.
Li Guodong waved his hand, since he is a writer, of course, he has to be responsible for the readers, so he didn't do much to keep it.
Feng Qingxiu personally sent Gao Zhan, Lu Ying, Bai Lu and Li Qian to the door of the house, and repeatedly told the children to go home often when they were free, especially a few girls, and if they were fine, they would go home to chat and go shopping with her.
Regarding the Hummer H6 that Gao Zhan was driving, although Feng Qingxiu held an important position as the deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, he didn't say much.
Leaving the compound of the Provincial Party Committee and returning to the 1502 Beauty Nest in Tianma Community, Hexi, Lin Xiaorou, Han Xiaoyan, Sun Yazhi and Fei Xueer were gathering in the living room to watch TV.
Seeing the high display of a military uniform, Lin Xiaorou and Fisher were of course inevitably "amazing".
There are so many secrets in this man! Lin Xiaorou silently looked at the tall and burly back of Gao Zhan who walked upstairs, and sighed secretly in her heart.
As early as when Li Guodong tested Gao Zhan's surname, Gao Zhan conceived and perfected the content of the chapters to be coded at night.
Subconsciously, he substituted the argument about responsibility discussed with his godfather into the characters in the book, simplified and refined it, and wrote an impromptu speech when the protagonist evaluates his subordinates.
After the code was finished, perhaps under the influence of the six words "responsibility is as heavy as Mount Tai", Gao Zhan's mood became a little heavy. Aside from other responsibilities, the responsibilities he must now bear are those of his children and his husband.
His parents raised him Chengren, and in the past 20 years, what kind of return have he given to his parents? What kind of filial piety has he done?
As the husband of Sister Ying and Lulu, how can I truly fulfill my responsibilities as a man?
I remember that I once saw such a passage in a military novel: military uniform is a kind of life and death contract signed by the country and citizens, and the moment you put on the military uniform, it means that you have signed this contract with the country.
But are you really ready?
With a kind of complex and heavy thoughts, Gao Zhan entered the dream a little dizzy, so that Lu Ying, who was lying next to him and ready to accept his "luck" at any time, felt a little strange, why didn't my husband want to ** tonight?
Hearing the heavy snoring sound in her husband's nose for the first time, Lu Ying quickly realized that her husband must have something on his mind, maybe it was related to the content of his conversation with his godfather today.
Quietly looking at the face of the resolute and handsome man in front of him at close range, Lu Ying suddenly gave birth to a feeling of extreme happiness and satisfaction, he is her husband, a man she can trust and rely on for life in this life, although he is just his food, but his love for himself is so high and deeper than the sky, what should he do to repay his love for himself?
It is he who makes the value of her life the greatest embodiment, without him, what kind of tragic situation will her current life be? He is so outstanding and great, the clothes he made, after his operation, can be sold at such a high price, compared to him, he is really too bad!
Couldn't help it, Lu Ying leaned over the soft lips of the surname, kissed him on the lips, leaned her body tightly against him, gently pressed her face against his face, quietly listened to his snoring, and gradually fell asleep.
The next day, Gao Zhan got up early as usual, and after returning from the morning exercise in Yuelu Mountain, he found that there was a strange girl at home.
The girl stood behind Peng Yun, looking very reserved. The facial features look as Peng Yun said yesterday, giving people a sweet and comfortable feeling, and they are all dressed like ordinary road goods, but they are very clean and tidy.
"Boss, she is Guo Xiufen." Peng Yun generously landed and introduced to Gao Zhan.
"Hello, welcome to Lu Ying Costumes." Gao Zhan made a decision on the spot and accepted the female employee, "Xiao Peng, you clean up the house downstairs where the fabric materials are placed today, and move the things inside to the house next door where the sundries are stored." Xiao Guo's salary is according to what I told you yesterday, if you perform well, you will get a raise. ”
"Thank you boss, I will do a good job." Guo Xiufen walked out from behind Peng Yun and bowed deeply to Gao Zhan.
"For hard-working and capable employees, my boss will never be stingy, do it well, Xiao Guo!" Gao Zhan encouraged the new employees and then walked upstairs.
From this day on, Lu Ying Clothing added a full-time skilled sewing worker, laying a solid foundation for Lu Ying Clothing to improve production and efficiency.
1502 Beauty Nest, since then there are two more fresh and beautiful girls, to a certain extent, greatly reducing the burden of Lu Ying and Bai Lu's housework, because Peng Yun and Guo Xiufen are both smart and diligent girls who see things and do things, whether it is laundry, cooking, cleaning, or buying vegetables and stir-frying, the second daughter is a good hand.
After guiding Guo Xiufen to get started, Lu Ying can spare more time to work on the design work she is best at, including the design of the unique cheongsam she told Gao Zhan.
Since talking to Li Guodong that night, Gao Zhan will basically call his mother or father every few days, one can be to report the safety of his parents and let them rest assured, and the other can often hear his parents' kind and loving nagging and advice.
In addition to calling his parents, Gao Zhan did not forget to call his godmother's house.
The days passed like this, which were both plain and warm, and soon, it was the weekend.
During dinner, Li Qian and the others heard that Gao Zhan was going to take Lu Ying and Bai Lu to Orange Island tomorrow, and they were very envious of their deep affection.
During the meal, Gao Zhan heard Lu Ying and Li Qian discussing that the fabrics, needlework, buttons, lace and other accessories were running out, and that they needed to increase the amount of purchases next week, so they realized that the godsister played such an important and critical role in the operation of Lu Ying's clothing.
Naturally, Gao Zhan also felt ashamed of his nerves.
After talking about it, Li Qian, who majored in economic management, proposed that the development of Luying clothing should be carried out in a clear division of labor on the company's organizational structure.
So, after some discussion, although the Luying clothing store has not really been upgraded to a regular company, there is a preliminary model for the leadership and the company's management structure.
Chairman: Gao Zhan
General Manager (and Purchasing Manager): Li Qian
Design Director: Lu Ying
Chief Financial Officer: Bai Lu
Operations Manager: Peng Yun
Manager: Lin Na
Clerk: He Wei
Production Supervisor: Guo Xiufen
After this management model was finalized, Li Qian happily shouted that she was about to register the company, saying that she was responsible for everything, and there was no need to show her heart.
Of course, Gao Zhan will not have any doubts about the energy of his godsister in the provincial city, since she is happy, let her handle it, so as not to ruin her fun, and it will be her own ears who will suffer at that time.
Thinking of the scene when they took Sun Yazhi and Lin Xiaorou to see the dream rainbow last time, Lu Ying and Bai Lu sat in the Maybach landaulet and told him that he wanted him to drive this car to take them for a ride, Gao Zhan decided to fulfill the wish of the two wives tomorrow, and it happened that the appearance of the Maybach was not as flamboyant as the Hummer H6, and generally not people who really understood cars, and few people could judge its true value from the appearance of this car that looked less ostentatious.
After dinner, Gao Zhan took Lu Ying and Bai Lu out of the door, drove the Hummer H6 to the garage, replaced it with a Maybach Landaulet, and then drove the two wives around the night view of Changzhou City, adapting to the car conditions, and also taught Lu Ying and Bai Lu how to use the functions corresponding to the many buttons in this extremely luxurious famous car.
The exterior of this Maybach Landaulet alone, if the roof of the rear seat is raised, people can't see that this car only has the rear seat open, and from a distance, it really looks like there is no obvious difference from many mid-range sedans driving on the road.
Of course, those who are involved in the world's famous cars, when they see the three M marks on the front of the car overlapping in the shape of a pin, they can naturally recognize this as a world-class super ox car at a glance.
