15 Truth
Yang Zheng suddenly found that sometimes the truth was so pale and weak, obviously his throat was full of chicken soup and truth, but in the end it was innocuous words that he spit out.
He understands that although he is fortunate in his current life, he not only has a stable job and income, but also hopes for the future.
But when my best friend encounters a predicament, I don't seem to be able to do anything about it.
This feeling is really uncomfortable, he can't describe it in words, he only feels that his mind is full of many fantasies, some of which are how good he would be if he was a rich man, he could be generous and spend millions to help his good friends start a business, and some of them would be so good if he had a social status, at least he could help his good friends administer justice.
But he also understands that he is actually nothing, and he is at best an insignificant little person in the chess world.
When fantasy and reality are opposed, when emotion and reason come together, his current mood is like a piece of tofu that has been hollowed out of the center, and needs something to fill it.
Yang Zheng, who returned home, only took a few mouthfuls of food for the first time and returned to the room with a lonely expression, under Huanhuan's surprised gaze, today's Yang Zheng was obviously a little lonely.
He returned to the room, turned on his mobile phone, and looked at the money he had saved this year, he didn't think about it, and transferred it all to Liu Dachuan.
A total of 54320.32, this is all Yang Zheng's savings in the past 31 years, and it is also all proof of his hard work for a year.
He originally planned to save up to 100,000 yuan to buy a car that was neither good nor bad, and bid farewell to the subway and bus.
But compared with Liu Dachuan's loneliness, it made him understand that he could not buy a car, and the blank in his heart must be filled in the blanks.
After transferring the account, Yang Zheng suddenly felt that some "cheap" ingredients seemed to be added to the tofu, and he stared at the gradually dimming screen of his mobile phone, as if waiting for the final result.
……
Liu Dachuan also returned home, his home is very large, almost twice as big as Yang Zheng's house, this is the house he bought at the age of twenty-eight, paid the full amount, and it is also the most glorious moment that he always thought was worth remembering.
He still remembers that when he was twenty-eight years old, the products he was responsible for had several hits in a row, and at that time, the big boss of the company patted him on the shoulder and told him that he was the veteran of the company and would definitely become a big man like himself in the future.
At that time, he looked at the banknotes that were tired into a mountain in front of him, and listened to the compliments of different voices around him, and he also felt that he would definitely become a big man in the future.
It's a pity that in the past three years, not only has he not become a big man, but he has also turned into an insignificant wave in the wave of layoffs in the company's transformation.
It was also at this time that he realized that he had always been just a small person.
The compliments that surrounded you, the talent and wisdom that you thought you would outperform others, and the ridiculous flattery that you will become a big man in the future.
It all turned into smoke in the mouth of the steel beast of reality.
However, he is still ambitious, and he will think that he still has hope of turning over, but after contacting him again, he suddenly found that the friends he had made in the workplace and business had changed his attitude towards him 180 degrees after learning that he had been eliminated by the company.
He seems to understand two truths in this state change, one is that he does not seem to have achieved the company, but the company has achieved himself. The other seems to be that adult friendships don't seem to be strong.
These two quite realistic truths made him feel difficult to breathe.
He seems to be very lonely, in the eight years of working life, he has not made a single friend, he seems to be very outdated, at the age of thirty-one, he has slowly failed to keep up with the young people's thinking, and he can't read what young people like.
He kept flipping through the phone's address book until he saw a phone number that he hadn't been in touch with for a long time, and he stopped his confused thoughts.
This is his former best friend, and he is also the brother who agreed to be a friend for life, but the owner of this phone number has not been in touch for many years, especially at the age of twenty-eight, when he is at his most beautiful, this friend seems to have "disappeared" and has not participated in his life.
He was a little hesitant, and he had a lot of troubles in his heart and urgently needed someone to talk to.
He also had the attitude of giving it a try, and asked this friend to come out to play.
And this friend, as before, seems to have been waiting for him at the origin.
After meeting this friend, he talked a lot and complained a lot, he became completely different from before, and after the failure, he unconsciously learned to make excuses, and unconsciously began to complain about this society.
Strong self-esteem also made him begin to fantasize about his future.
But his friends, as if they were the same as before, not only did he not tear down his stubbornness, but he also did not look at his current self coldly like others.
He was just half-joking and let himself out.
He doesn't seem to have changed, and he seems to have changed a lot.
As for him, I seem to know that he has recently started to learn how to play chess and intends to become a professional chess player.
Although he doesn't know chess, he knows that chess can't make a lot of money, at least compared to his most brilliant self at the age of twenty-eight, this friend probably can't become a big man.
Maybe it's because I think of this, I feel a lot better.
He also seems to understand the third truth, that is, to be content, because it is not enough to be superior, but it is more than enough.
When he got home, he was in a mood that suddenly brightened, he watched the hit drama on TV, lying on the sofa, and about the entrepreneurship he said before, probably tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or even beyond.
After all, although he is unemployed, he has a lot of savings, he is an elite in the workplace, and even if he is fired, he has received a generous compensation.
This generous compensation is enough for him to squander for a long time.
Now that life has confidence, then the future, even if you don't have to look forward to it, you can live a wonderful life.
It's as wonderful as the picture on TV.
His mood was even more ups and downs with the plot on TV, watching the heroes on TV betray and leave, he recalled the past, and felt inexplicably empathetic.
Watching the hero's skills soar when he met the adventure, his mood also became excited, as if he saw his future self.
When he watched the hero's successful revenge and reign over the world, he felt an emptiness.
Why is it empty?
He didn't know, he looked up at the window, the thick night, like an invisible big hand, made him feel inexplicable fear.
He subconsciously picked up the mobile phone that he put aside, as if he wanted to divert his attention, but when he looked at the prompt on the phone, his heart was suddenly filled with something.
He stared at the transfer from his friend, and an unprecedented emotion came to his eyes, and the thirty-one-year-old, like a child who had done something wrong, howled and cried.
He looked at this transfer, which was not a fraction of what he was twenty-eight years old for, and felt a little more guilty in his heart.
He also seemed to suddenly understand the fourth truth in life.
That's – when you're ready to give up on yourself, remember that there will always be someone who won't give up on you!
