Chapter 549: Laughing On Stage, Crying Off Stage (Part 2)
"I really don't have any opinions. The atmosphere at that time was different. All the families in the village educated their children. It doesn't matter if the clothes are a little worn out, as long as they are sewn well and they are clean.
This trend went to extremes for a while. I remember that in the second semester of the fifth grade, which was the Spring Festival after the Asian Games, my family finally bought a jacket. I was embarrassed to wear it outside when school started in the first month. Instead, I put on old clothes outside. , Moreover, as far as our class is concerned, there are still many students who did this at the time.
Although during the Chinese New Year, when I saw some children wearing new clothes, I was not envious at the time, but I was only envious for a while, and I never clamored for it from my family.
Even a few times, before the Chinese New Year, my mother said, no matter how much money I took to buy me a dress, I would take the initiative to say no, and use it to pay off the debt."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the audience was a bit dignified, Feng Yiping quickly made amends, "Did you forget? I'm a good boy!"
In a word, many people laughed again.
"Yes, you are a good boy, so tell me, what is the happiest thing for your parents?"
"Of course there are a lot of good kids," Feng Yiping continued to boast, "Hehe, please don't get me wrong, I'm usually very humble."
"Well, there's no need to explain. We all believe it. Did you think of what you did to make your parents the happiest?"
"It should be when I get home certificates." After thinking about it, Feng Yiping said, "I have been going home to get certificates since the second grade of elementary school. , I still posted them on the wall at home, but then I stopped posting them, and even the ones on the wall disappeared. I thought my parents didn't care about these at the time.
It wasn’t until one day that I found the flat stack of certificates carefully wrapped in plastic paper at the bottom of a box. I realized that they didn’t want these certificates to be stuck on the wall, smoky and faded. broken, or broken,"
"Hehe, these certificates are also proof of your good boy,"
"Actually, I now think that these awards, to my parents, not only mean the school's recognition of me, but also a different kind of life, the affirmation of their son again and again, which is the hope of a better life Bar!"
"I can understand. To put it simply, it is to jump out of the farm, go to university, and find a good job in the city, right," the hostess said.
"Yes, you still made it clear," Feng Yiping boasted.
In the audience, Huang Jingping was in a better mood, but after hearing what he said, Jin Ling curled her lips again. When she saw a beautiful girl, she couldn't help but flirt.
"In your impression, what is the most memorable thing your parents did?"
"The most memorable thing, I think about it too much now, I really don't know where to start, let me think about it," Feng Yiping really bowed his head and thought for a while.
"The most memorable thing, I think, is that my parents taught me something about dignity with their practical actions," Feng Yiping said.
"Dignity, what do you say?" The host didn't quite understand.
"In general perception, one's own dignity should be untouchable, and whoever violates it, you will fight desperately with him.
However, my parents made me feel that personal dignity is sometimes not important. When you put down your dignity for some things, it seems to be more dignified.
For example, when my parents lowered their heads and bowed their heads to ask for help for our family, for my tuition fees, for my medical treatment, and lowered their dignity, I felt that they were the strongest at that moment. "
When talking about this, Feng Yiping remembered that in elementary school, because of tuberculosis, his parents first borrowed money everywhere, and then took turns carrying him back and forth between the township health center and the town hospital, and his eyes were a little red.
Therefore, he did not expect that what he said would take another big step on the road of crying out to the audience. Now, even many male compatriots at the scene were red-eyed.
Because for the sake of their children, for the sake of the family, parents who take the initiative to let go of their dignity, of course, do not know how common it is. If you think about it as a child, if you look through your memories, you can always find such things.
Feng Yiping noticed it, what's going on? The words I said should not be tear gas, why does it always have such an effect? "I'm sorry to make everyone laugh, but actually speaking now, the days before, whether they were bitter or sweet, are actually very warm and happy when I think about them now.
I believe that if you give everyone a choice, as long as you are willing to abandon today’s materialistic life, you can relive the time when you were young. Everyone sitting here, including me, will definitely agree without hesitation, right? "
He was answered with applause.
Yo, so many agree! Feng Yiping also applauded, he was still wondering, will these words of mine make some guys in the audience start writing rebirth novels now?
The beautiful hostess glanced at the audience, feeling a little helpless. Today's interview didn't seem to be controlled by her.
However, for such a big platform like them, and such a celebrity column, of course, a lot of preparatory work has been done before the interview. Judging from what they have learned, these things Feng Yiping said are still true.
It is definitely not a story that he made up by using his expertise as a writer to win everyone's sympathy.
It's just that the trivial but real things he said are really touching.
"After hearing these things about you, I am as moved and admired as everyone else. However, I think, from another perspective, those difficult days when you were young are actually a kind of wealth to you. It forged some of the best qualities in you that made you what you are today.
At the same time, it also shows that as long as we work hard, no matter how difficult the situation is, there is hope for change,"
The hostess didn't dare to continue discussing this topic, she hastily summed it up, and moved on to the next topic that everyone should be interested in, "You are now a purely successful person, what do you think of success?" In addition, there are many college students like you here today, what experience do you have and can you pass on to them?"
"How can I be called a success with my meager achievements, and how can I have the nerve to talk about my experience with everyone?" Feng Yiping said.
He is really not modest, only the later richest people are qualified to preach these things everywhere.
Of course, his humble words made the audience's favorability towards him rise a bit.
"Then tell me about your experiences."
"That line, as far as I am concerned, for example, after I graduate from university and enter the society, I can have a stable job, buy a house in the city, and buy a family car. With spare money and time, taking my wife and children, traveling around the country, and going abroad after a few years, I think this is considered a success."
"Why do I think you're talking about the American middle class?" the hostess said with a smile.
"Yes, it is actually planned with reference to the middle class in developed countries. I want to say that if everyone can reach this level, then our country will definitely be a developed country by then."
"Then about entrepreneurship, what do you want to share with everyone, I guess many people here would like to hear your views on this,"
"I personally think that to start a business, first of all, you should combine your actual situation. Don't set your goals too high at the beginning. It is best to do whatever kind of business you have. Of course, you should not be afraid of hardship.
On this point, Wenzhou people, who are known as Oriental Jews, have set a good example for us.
When they first started, they had neither capital nor technology, so they just set up a small stall on the side of the road, even if it was shoe repair and shoe shine? After earning some money, I will rent a store to sell shoes, and then build a factory to produce shoes. Step by step, I will develop steadily.
The same is true in our family. After harvesting the chestnuts that year, my parents first bought the family’s Nian pigs and cashed in a few hundred yuan, and then brought with them a few hundred catties of good quality that they bought on credit from other families in the village. Chestnuts, when they arrived in the provincial capital, they sold fried chestnuts with sugar and breakfast by the way.
At that time, I thought very clearly that even if this small business couldn't be done, or didn't make money, the family could afford it.
They have to be busy until after 12 o'clock every night to complete the preparations, pick and wash the chestnuts, reconcile the noodles, grind the soy milk, and get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to steam some steamed buns and cook them. Pack the soy milk in the bag, eat a few bites of rice in a hurry, and then go out.
During the whole day, no matter it is windy, rainy or scorching hot, they will push the modified tricycle around the university town of our provincial capital. The two buns left behind for lunch will not arrive until after 9 o’clock in the evening. A place to rent….
After working so hard for more than a year, I finally saved some money, then rented a store, opened a noodle restaurant, saved some more money, and opened a branch... and so on until today. "
Seeing the situation offstage, the hostess seemed a little depressed, and she was anxious to change the subject, "Now you should have a rich material life, can you talk to everyone about how you think about money?"
