What do you want in life?
In the car, Cao Yu looked at Yan Tingting, his eyes full of admiration and said: What did you think just now?
Yan Tingting deliberately didn't look into Cao Yu's eyes. She blushed and turned her head away to look at the scenery outside the window and said: "What do you think?! I didn't think about anything."
Cao Yu had no choice but to say bluntly: The idea you just had was really brilliant. How did you come up with it?
Yan Tingting felt proud, but her eyes were still looking out the window casually. Suddenly, she took Cao Yu's hand, pointed at the scenery on the street, and said excitedly: Hey, look, what does that beauty in a short skirt look like? Is she pretty?
?
How can Cao Yu have the time to see any beautiful women now? He only has Yan Tingting in his mind. His eyes have been hooked by her for a long time. He knows that she is deliberately teasing him. This kind of fishing without even putting the bait.
Fa, it was clearly Jiang Taigong fishing! He was not willing to bite the hook, so he quickly said seriously: I am telling you something serious, please don’t interrupt, okay?
Yan Tingting couldn't help complaining: What's serious? I wasn't forced by you, how dangerous it was just now! Tell me about you, why do you have to tell them these things?
Cao Yu sighed: What's wrong? It's nothing! The truth can sometimes make people feel frustrated, but it's better than hiding it deliberately, right? In that case, the problem will not be solved after all. Besides, the result is not very good.
Well, how unexpected!
Yan Tingting rolled her eyes at him and said: What are you still talking about! Who could have expected this result?! If the negotiation breaks down, I'll see how you end it!
Cao Yu said with a smile: I don't have you here, you are my talisman. As long as you are here, I believe that no matter how big the crisis is, I will be able to turn danger into good luck and turn disaster into good fortune!
Yan Tingting spat and said: Bah, look at your bad behavior, get out of here and stop talking about these useless things here!
Cao Yu smiled and said: I admire your unfazed attitude. You can pick up any ideas at will, open roads in the mountains, build bridges when encountering water, everything is like God's help. I really don't know if you are lucky or if you have real ability!
Yan Tingting retracted her gaze from the window, turned to look at Cao Yu with disdain and said: If you can't speak, don't speak. If you praise me a few times, you will die?!
Cao Yu glanced at Master Chen, who was driving in front of him, and said jokingly: How old are you, and you still like such false things?
Yan Tingting said angrily: Of course, who doesn’t want to hear something nice?! Come on, say a few nice words to praise me!
Cao Yu quickly flattered him and said: "That's right, that's necessary. Let me think about it. What word can be used to describe you? Calm, calm, what do you think of this word?"
Yan Tingting asked doubtfully: Calm? Calm, that's it?
Cao Yu said seriously: Of course, calmly, calmly and unhurriedly, he solved the problem and made people feel at ease with you by their side!
Yan Tingting really liked hearing this. She couldn't help but feel a little carried away. She smiled and said: Haha, calm down? I was so frightened when I saw those gangsters that I almost lost my soul. How can I be as calm and calm as you said!
Cao Yu smiled and said: You are afraid of gangsters, but why are you not afraid of them?
Yan Tingting smiled and said: What do they have to be afraid of?! Confidence, do you understand?
Cao Yu wondered: Confidence? What confidence?
Yan Tingting smiled and said: Confidence, as the name suggests, is the capital of boldness! It is not courage, it is what people often say. You are not afraid of gangsters because you have strong fists. I am not afraid of them making trouble because I know them.
It’s just that I want to get two more dollars!
Cao Yudao: It’s true. I have been doing ideological work for a long time, but when it comes time to take action in the end, I return to the issue of money. Those empty sermons all become decoration in the end.
Yan Tingting looked sadly and said: They are actually quite pitiful. They can't fight without the word "money". Cao Yu, what do you think people live for in this life?
Cao Yu laughed and said: What did you do wrong? I really don't know how to answer such a profound question.
Yan Tingting sighed and said: Hey, it's all because of poverty. They fight and quarrel for money. They also use this idea to guess other people's thoughts and focus on money all day long. Are you tired?
ah?
Cao Yu smiled and said: "You're not tired, isn't this interesting? Have you heard of an interesting theory put forward by Brzezinski?"
Yan Tingting thought for a moment and asked doubtfully: Brzezinski? Are you talking about that absurd theory on how to make the vast number of poor people live in poverty and happiness? The rich exploit the poor with peace of mind, and the poor are willing to be exploited, and everyone is numbly content with
The status quo, and you don’t even think about making changes?
Cao Yudao: Yes, everyone has their own happiness and pursuits. How harmonious would such a society be?
Yan Tingting said angrily: What kind of harmony? The rich can live and die drunk, but what about the poor? Have you ever thought about their feelings?!
Cao Yu said calmly: If the poor can have a job and have food to eat, this kind of life is very good. This is called having a Bentou. What else do you want?!
Yan Tingting stared at Cao Yu, her eyes full of contempt and said: Cao Yu, I really can't see that you are such a person.
Cao Yu argued: What's wrong with me?
Yan Tingting snorted coldly and said: Huh! Can't you see they are suffering?! I haven't done anything yet, but I am so insensitive. I am blind and I saw you wrong!
Cao Yu was so uninterested by her unwarranted scolding that he said: "Don't say that to me. I just told the truth. Whether you are willing to accept it or not, this is what most people want."
life.
Yan Tingting knew in her heart that what he said was not unreasonable, but she still felt inexplicably sad for his indifference. She said calmly: Even if they are content with poverty and have nothing to do with the world, they cannot become the so-called elites who oppress them by being rich and unkind.
Reason!
As soon as Yan Tingting said this, the atmosphere between the two people immediately cooled down and fell into silence. Cao Yu didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to carefully test: This world is originally ruled by a small number of elites. They
The ingenuity of the people is driving the development of the entire world, while the vast majority of people are just adding bricks and mortar and playing a supporting role.
Yan Tingting still couldn't accept his rhetoric and said coldly: Do you mean that their existence is actually dispensable to this world? Should their suffering be forgotten?!
Cao Yu saw that her eyes were a little wet as she spoke, and he felt really hurt and loved. He quickly shouted to Qu: "Conscience of heaven and earth, you have wronged me."
Yan Tingting said angrily: I have wronged you? Isn’t this what you said?
Cao Yu swore and shouted: "How could you see me looking down on them?! I never thought about bullying them! Don't always think of me as bad, okay?!"
Yan Tingting raised her eyebrows lightly and said in a sarcastic tone: Oh, what do you think I should think of you?
Cao Yu explained sincerely: In fact, I think the same thing as you. Aren’t the conditions we gave them much better than what they had before? Isn’t this all to enable them to earn more money and improve things?
Their family's living conditions. Didn't your dad also say that only when the company's business grows bigger can the employees' incomes increase and they can develop? All this must be done slowly and cannot be rushed.
Yan Tingting was still angry and said: Then why did you talk so much nonsense just now! Brzezinski is just a bastard!
Cao Yu shrugged helplessly and said: What I mean is that you can't let them live according to your wishes. They have their ambitions and their lives. These are their own choices. You have to make them.
The question is how to help them live a better life. Zifeiyu knows how happy fish is, how can you be sure that they are not happy?!
Yan Tingting was still feeling sad about herself, and she was in a very low mood. She said softly: What do you mean they have their own happiness?! Can't you see? How can they be happy like this?!
Cao Yu couldn't bear to see her sad look and quickly comforted her: "Don't be sentimental. You just saw them suffering here, but did you ever think that they would also enjoy it?"
Yan Tingting got a little angry when she heard this, her face became even more serious and she said: What do you mean? Gonghuo, right?!
Cao Yu quickly shook his head and begged for mercy: "Don't do this, it makes people uncomfortable to watch. Please listen to what I have to say."
When Yan Tingting saw Cao Yu sincerely coaxing her, she immediately felt better and said calmly: Okay, you can say it.
Cao Yu looked at her dreamingly, swallowed his saliva and said: In fact, everyone has their own way of living. Each way of living has its own happiness and sadness. Some people choose to pursue spirituality, and some people choose to pursue spirituality.
When choosing to pursue material things, some people have lofty ideals, while others are down-to-earth, some choose elegance, and others choose vulgarity. It is difficult to say which of these choices are good and which are bad.
Cao Yu observed her reaction from time to time as he spoke. Seeing that she had no expression on her face and seemed to be listening carefully, he swallowed again and boldly continued: As long as these choices are made of their own free will, what will happen to others?
You can't ask everyone to live like you. The wind can blow off the yellow leaves on the branches, but it can't blow away the butterflies falling on the branches. The reason why life is called life is because of it.
Disobedience, every life is different, this is the meaning of its existence.
Yan Tingting retorted: What yellow leaves, butterflies, it’s so easy to say, are they voluntarily choosing a poor life? Do they have the right to choose to be rich?!
Cao Yu shook his head helplessly and said: You can tell me this. No one's wealth comes in vain. Didn't your father also come from a poor background? As long as wealth can flow normally and reasonably and everyone has equal opportunities, this is a good thing.
!
Cao Yu saw that she was no longer talking, so he continued: Besides, if their goal in life is to make money desperately, wouldn't it be a happy thing to see the money in their hands increasing day by day?
Don’t most people live such a life of joy and hardship? How can it be as miserable as you say?!
Yan Tingting was somewhat relieved after what he said: "If you are tired of running around all day, you must have very little fun."
Seeing that her expression became cheerful, Cao Yu also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: As for spiritual pursuits, you will naturally think about them after you have eaten. There is no need for you to worry about them.
!
Yan Tingting said angrily: People only have so much success in this life, don’t you think it’s quite boring?!
Seeing that her tone had softened, Cao Yu even said proudly: No, isn't it fun to love and collect money? They enjoy it and never tire of it, why are you so worried?!
Yan Tingting couldn't help being amused by him and said: Money fan, I'm like you, how vulgar!
Seeing that she was happy, Cao Yu immediately got excited and said: What's wrong?! Loving money may be a more practical pursuit for most people. Not only do they enjoy it, but many people may benefit from it.
Well, isn’t that something to be proud of?
Yan Tingting asked doubtfully: A small amount of success? How to say this?
Cao Yu patiently explained: They rely on their own skills to make money to support their families, which is of course something to be proud of! Don't worry about suffering here, but when you get home, you will be a beautiful wife in a bungalow, dressed in fine clothes, and full of glory!
Yan Tingting followed the guidance of his words, and the sweet and warm pictures emerged in her heart, and she couldn't help but yearn for it. Cao Yu saw a smile on her face, and quickly continued: On the other hand, those who have great ambitions will only live a long life.
You may want to pursue those self-exhilarating spiritual riches, but have you ever thought about the fact that most of them spend their time in loneliness, hunger and cold, waiting for death?
Yan Tingting was stunned and said: What do you mean, you don’t understand?
Cao Yuxiao explained: Take Monet and Van Gogh as examples. Although they were talented, they still ended up wandering around and dying in poverty. And that Han Xin, although he had the ambition to stabilize the country, he had nothing to do with his hands.
