I. Wu Yuchao and Lv Xiaoyan
Wu Yuchao, the man, moved to Tiantongyuan to pursue his divorced first love goddess Lu Xiaoyan. He thought he could win back the love he missed in college through hard work. But everyone can see at a glance that Lv Xiaoyan is not suitable for him except herself.
While living in the house left to her by her divorced ex-husband, Lv Xiaoyan used the alimony provided by her ex-husband, and accused him of cheating, crying about his unfortunate marriage and meeting people. But at the same time, Lv Xiaoyan seems to enjoy being spoiled as a princess by Wu Yuchao, and accuses him of not meeting her material needs. Wu Yuchao is still the innocent boy in college, but Lv Xiaoyan is no longer the innocent girl in college.
In order to cook a dinner for Lv Xiaoyan, Wu Yuchao has been looking up recipes during working hours. After work, she goes directly to the supermarket to buy steak and red wine, hoping to cook a candlelight dinner for her beloved goddess. Of course, this is just imagination. Lv Xiaoyan dislikes that the steak he bought is not fresh and the red wine is not up to grade. Lv Xiaoyan takes Wu Yuchao shopping, and she will be unhappy because he can't afford to pay, or even if he doesn't pay soon. However, every time after having a candlelight dinner with Lv Xiaoyan, Wu Yuchao has to go out to make up an omelet, which seems to imply that they are not suitable. He has always been modest to her, but she is no longer modest.
Lu Xiaoyan offered to eat Japanese food for the last time, but she said a word and left. Wu Yuchao said to her, "Sit down and leave after dinner. My monthly salary is only 4000 yuan after deducting rent. On average, this 4000 yuan is less than 130 yuan a day. This plate of sea cucumber you ordered costs 298 yuan, and you will leave after eating. " Lv Xiaoyan directly threw him a sentence: "Don't fall in love without money." Good realistic lines, but more realistic is life!
If you cook together in a shared room and don't pursue this petty bourgeoisie sentiment, it is estimated that you can still eat well for two thousand yuan. Two people work together to make money. One person's salary expenses and the other person's savings can still have a lot of savings after one year. However, Lv Xiaoyan is not the kind of woman who is willing to work hard with Wu Yuchao, and Wu Yuchao is not a man who can give Lv Xiaoyan luxurious food.
Wu Yuchao was frustrated in love, and so was his work. He worked hard in the company for three years, thinking that he would definitely take power this time. As a result, the position of director was given to a newcomer who had been in the company for less than half a year but had a family background. He asked the manager to leave. The manager drew him a big cake and asked him to stay in Daxing to see if he could sign important guests of the company. If he signs this account, he will be the manager of the Ministry of Commerce in the future. Dude, tell him, this is a big cake. Why does it change sometimes? However, he decided to go. After all, money can give him confidence to live in Beijing, and this confidence can only be obtained through work for Beijingers with no background.
Life in Beipiao is definitely not as beautiful as expected. The myth of the grassroots attacking Rainbow, Bao Qiang and Yun-peng Yue can't happen to every ordinary person, but the city does give many young people with dreams hope. This is the capital of China and the Beijing of the whole people. Although this kind of city has high rent and high consumption, it also has many opportunities. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. As long as you work hard, you won't waste your warm-blooded youth!
Second, it is too difficult to be a good person.
Zhang Jian in "Love Story in the North" is a cowardly figure.
At the beginning of the story, his cohabiting girlfriend Pingping chose to leave him. Pingping told him that she was tired of living with him and even wanted to eat beef with sauce for half a day. Such a life left her with no hope at all. Zhang Jian still chased her stupidly and said, I'll go to your place to buy sauce beef now, and you wait for me. And Pingping still ignored him, carrying luggage directly to the distance.
Zhang Jian's job is an intermediary of a real estate company, and his performance is the last one every month. He has to bear the cynicism of his colleagues and supervisors in the company every day. In order to keep this job, he also works part-time as a company cleaner. He paid silently, not only didn't get understanding, but made people laugh at him even more unscrupulously.
As his colleague and ex-girlfriend, Pingping asked him to resign voluntarily to maintain his self-esteem. He told me the reason why I left my job. As long as you keep doing it, you can get an extra month's attendance award. Maybe this money is nothing to you, but to me, it is a month's food. Pingping asked him, don't you need dignity at all? He said, I can't afford it.
Zhang Jian is a good man, but he is an incompetent man. The monthly rent and food expenses make him exhausted. When he was frustrated, his roommate Dongdong came to see him. He and Dongdong gradually approached. They had some feelings for each other, but they were quickly strangled by Dongdong's mother, Lan Jie.
When Zhang Jian is frustrated, Sister Lan will tell him that women's tears are the most powerful weapon to conquer men, but for men, tears are the most useless. As we often say, men can shed blood and sweat, but they can't shed tears like women.
As a roommate, Zhang Jian is a nice person. He treats people sincerely and enthusiastically, but as a son-in-law, Sister Lan once denied him. Zhang Jianlian can't support himself, let alone get married and have children.
Zhang Jian finally chose to leave Beijing and return to his hometown to grow corn. He told Wu Yuchao that maybe growing corn was more suitable for him, and he didn't have to deal with people every day. He likes Beijing very much, but there are too many people coming to Beijing, but those who can stay in Beijing are all left after twists and turns. As a person with no background and strength, maybe leaving is not a bad choice.
When he checked out, he went to say goodbye to the stray dogs in the community. He said he was leaving, hoping that someone would feed him often in the future. A person who doesn't even care about himself has leisure to worry about stray dogs in the community. He can only say that Zhang Jian is too kind.
This society is becoming more and more realistic, and everyone only pays attention to the results and ignores the process. Once, when we evaluated "you are a good person", this sentence contained too much positive energy, affirmation of your character and affirmation of your behavior. But now, the phrase "you are a good man" is more like a euphemism. You are a useless person, you are an incompetent person.
Not everyone who goes to Beijing can succeed, but everyone who has wandered in Beijing has his own sadness and tears.
