Chengcheng is an absolutely shrewd and tactful person, even Shao Shao was like this at the beginning.

When he first entered the military camp, he set a goal for himself - to work vigorously in this military camp for the rest of his life.

To achieve this goal, Chengcai tries his best to become excellent and perform with all his heart.

When he was in the recruit company, in order to leave a good impression on others, he worked very hard in everything he did and soon became the deputy squad leader. In order to integrate into the army as soon as possible, he began to learn to smoke lamely as a non-smoker.

Finally, when the recruits were assigned to companies after training, due to his outstanding performance, he was picked up by the best company - Steel Seventh Company. Of course, Wu Liuyi, a shift deputy in the Seventh Company, felt that his talent was fake, he was insincere, and he was extremely utilitarian in his work, so he was a little hesitant about whether he would stay or leave, but these could not be any reasons to prevent him from staying in the Seventh Company, because Seventh Company The company commander Gao Cheng valued his military qualities more.

By the time he reaches the Seventh Company, he is like a fish in water, and he is more at ease. Due to his excellent shooting skills, he quickly became a sniper as he wished and became the backbone of the Seventh Company. At the same time, he still did not ignore interpersonal relationships. Even if he couldn't get along with everyone in the company, he still wanted to get along with at least half of the company.

However, his philosophy on interpersonal relationships clearly divides people into three, six or nine grades, and he has different levels of investment in people with different identities. This can be seen in the fact that he passes cigarettes to others. Yiban - ten yuan for the company commander and platoon leader, five yuan for the squad leader and squad deputy, and one or two yuan for ordinary comrades.

But this did not affect his status in the company at all. To be more precise, it was the status in the heart of the company commander. In a confrontation, his outstanding sniper ability was put to full use and he killed four enemy snipers in one go. He was highly praised by company commander Gao Cheng and asked him to explain sniper essentials to the entire company. After the confrontation, as the most ordinary soldier, he went to toast the company commander three glasses of wine alone. The company commander actually drank to the bottom of the glass with him, which showed that the company commander valued him.

However, compared with his own development, the Seventh Company that nurtured and cultivated him seemed a bit insignificant. Due to the gathering of talents in the Seventh Company and fierce competition, Chengcai contacted the company secretly behind the company commander's back and left the Seventh Company and transferred to the Third Company, because there, he would appear to be better, stronger than others, and receive more attention.

However, fate seemed to have played a big joke on him. As expected, he was highly regarded in the Third Company. Not only did he become a non-commissioned officer, but he also became a squad leader. However, the squad he was going to was not so satisfactory - squad five.

Squad 5, this place is called "the squad leader's grave, the coward's paradise". There, no one cares about you, no one pays attention to you, even except for three or four comrades in the same class, there is no one in a hundred miles. It was a marginalized place, where people had nothing to do and wasted their time every day. To make matters worse, Class 5 was not issued live ammunition, which was like a bolt from the blue for a man who was proud of shooting.

In fact, it doesn’t matter much if the place is almost the same. After all, he was promoted to sergeant and promoted to squad leader, and his military career finally took a step forward.

Soon, the next opportunity presented itself. Brigade A—the pinnacle of the infantry—needs to select and recruit soldiers, and those who are top soldiers will naturally be on the list of candidates.

This selection was extremely fierce and cruel. It was absolutely impossible for an individual to complete such a difficult task, so the soldiers who participated in the selection formed teams.

But because Chengcai betrayed the Seventh Company before, the people in the old Seventh Company refused to be with Chengcai. At this time, Wu Liuyi, the original squad deputy of the Seventh Company, stood up, accepted Chengcai and invited him to join them. Together.

Chengcai doesn’t seem to appreciate it. He always looks at everyone around him with a hostile eye. He regards these people who accept to act with him as competitors instead of comrades, because the end point is only Three places. Therefore, when someone was lost, he did not stop or remind him, and just let that person get lost.

After going through all kinds of hardships and passing through many passes with heavy gunfire and bullets, Chengcai and the others are finally almost reaching the finish line. At this time, Wu Liuyi was unable to walk independently due to his leg injury and needed help. One person had already arrived at the finish line. Now there were only two places left. However, there were two people chasing after each other behind the talents. Help each other and run towards the finish line. At this critical moment, Chengcai decisively abandoned Wu Liuyi, threw away the "baggage" and ran towards the finish line.

Without any suspense, Chengcai passed the first round of selection for Team A.

At this time, he was very proud of his success. He used his excellent military ability to defeat generals and sing loudly. Amidst the envy of others, he rushed from a new recruit to the A Brigade step by step. There is no reason not to consider yourself an excellent and successful soldier. Although he had betrayed the company and abandoned his comrades in the process, so what? He is the winner after all. Everything in the past is just one place after another. His goal is success!

Now, he has a new beginning, where he will continue his philosophy of life because he has always been confident in himself.

The more brutal training of Team A has begun. The adults are still outstanding and perform the best in the team. At the same time, he still only cares about performance and achievements, leaving no place in his heart for anyone or anything around him. During a shooting training, Chengcai's bedmate No. 27 had an aggrieved argument with his instructor Yuan Lang. Chengcai, who was standing next to No. 27, did not stop him and watched as he was eliminated.

But these will not have any impact on Chengcai's results. He is still the highest scorer in the team. Therefore, he successfully entered Team A.

After entering Team A, Chengcai immediately received a new task. It was an anti-terrorist operation, and all Chengcai's teammates died. Chengcai was faced with two choices: fighting alone or withdrawing without responsibility - he chose the latter.

It was later learned that this was a test for them by Team A, and it could also be said to be the last hurdle for them to enter Team A. The so-called anti-terrorism operation is just a test question designed by the instructors.

Of course, Chengcai's performance cannot allow him to continue to be in Team A, but he cannot accept it. He thinks that his performance is the best and his training score is the highest. There is no reason not to stay here.

In the end, it was Yuan Lang’s words that woke him up:

“To become a talent, every place, every person, and everything you experience requires your time and effort. Life, but you never give your feelings. You always throw them away coldly. So what are you trying to do for a result? What you should be thinking about is not how to become a special soldier, but how to treat yourself well. Yibing. "

"Remember Twenty-Seven? You were sleeping together and went through such hardships together, but you thought he had nothing to do with you. You thought he was your competition. Opponent, you lost a competitor, but you didn't expect that you lost a comrade."

"I have been thinking, why can't such an excellent soldier regard us as his. Comrade? From that day on, I began to be disappointed with you. You are the core, the spirit, and the only wealth of the team. Everything else is empty. I can't just look at your performance. What I value more is people."

"Chengcai, do you want to know what I think is the only redeeming feature of you? It was when you called out your friend's name before you gave up, I finally discovered that there are people you care about in this world. But this does not mean that You will learn to cherish, go back, be kind to yourself and others, and be a good person!”

After hearing this, Chengcai felt like a deflated ball and was speechless. , I couldn't even stand, my energy and energy were all drained away, and the strength I had been holding on finally broke!

These words pierced his heart, not because they criticized him for being completely naked, not because Yuan Lang exposed his shortcomings and weaknesses, but because these words reminded him of the past, those days before - —Leave Seventh Company, abandon Wu Liuyi, abandon No. 27...

At that time, he seemed to understand a little, and understood that the most important thing in life is not the end, but the road to the end, where Every scene, every flower and plant is actually so beautiful, precious and worth cherishing!

Chengcai returned to Class 5 on the grassland, a place where there was no one and nothing to do, a place where he could stare at sheep dung eggs all afternoon, and began to slowly find his Branches and vines.

Chengcai's heart calmed down. He understood what it means to be content and what it means to cherish. When he carefully savored the life around him, he discovered that the sky was blue, the air was clear, and the grass was green.

He was too dry before, without a drop of moisture. In the past, he thought that his excellent military skills were enough to make him a true soldier king, but now he discovered that he was not even a soldier at all.

Understanding this, the transformation of a successful person will be a matter of course. He is no longer as impetuous and vain as before. At that time, he exuded a kind of arrogance from his bones. He would surpass whoever was stronger than him. He was already stronger than others and he would be stronger than him. Everything Action is only for the ultimate goal.

But now, he is much more at ease. After becoming more at ease, his body feels comfortable from the inside out. He finally understood what "never abandon, never give up" means, and he did it. In a later exercise, no matter what kind of adversity and setbacks he faced, he remained consistent. Even when Yuan Lang used words to stimulate him and hit him again and again, he never gave up, because he was not for the ultimate goal of success, but for the final goal of success. It’s about having a belief in your heart—persisting in completing the path you choose.

At the same time, when he saw Xu Sanduo falling from a height, he would quarrel with Yuan Lang, the superior who could decide his own destiny, because in his heart at that time, what was the difference between his comrades and All are important. This is in stark contrast to the former Chengcai who worked hard to establish relationships with his superiors. The Phoenix Nirvana of Chengcai can be seen from this small detail.

After Xu Sanduo was injured, Chengcai insisted on staying as a cover - there was a risk of being shot and asked Xu Sanduo to retreat, even though Xu Sanduo anxiously asked him to retreat - because this would allow him to practice during the exercise. When there was a better performance in the game, he was unmoved, because what he valued now was no longer his own so-called success and failure, but the team and friendship.

He has succeeded in becoming a talent and has completed self-sublimation. He truly understands the meaning of life and no longer obsessively pursues the illusory results. Instead, he cares more about the process, everyone around him, and everyone. One thing, because the scenery on the way is more charming than at the end.

Of course, in the end Chengcai successfully entered Team A - but this was just the starting point of his life, not the end.
