Gu Chen was afraid that the man would be emotionally unstable, so he was still willing to communicate with him more.
After learning that the executive was fired by the company, Gu Chen also continued to ask: "So what did that person do afterwards?"
"Yeah." The man sighed quietly and said, "Later, I heard that after working as an HR for a period of time, he went out to work alone. I didn't ask in detail what he did."
"What if you are engaged in technology? For example, if you are a technical expert, would this be better?" Lu Weiwei feels that most of the industries that make money now are related to technology.
And regarding technical experts, Lu Weiwei also has personal experience. Some fields belong to broad spectrum fields.
For example, He Junchao is an expert in technical investigation in the Furong Branch Criminal Investigation Team, and he is an indispensable tool in the department team.
The man nodded silently and agreed: "Technical experts are slightly better."
"For example, if you are a master in Android and work in a certain company, you can also go to other companies in the future."
"But if you know something about routers, my God, if you leave those large router manufacturers, then in fact, there will only be one large router manufacturer left, and you must be miserable."
When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly remembered something, so he hurriedly asked the man: "Do you still remember the man who jumped off the building in a certain way?"
"He? Of course I know." Unexpectedly, Gu Chen would suddenly talk about this, and the man said without hesitation: "He is a router from Xingxing. He worked for Huawei before, but after he was fired by Xingxing,
There really is nowhere to go.”
Seeing that Gu Chen meant something, the man also grinned and said: "Of course, the choice of jumping off the building is a bit excessive. I also know what you mean, don't worry, I no longer have such thoughts."
"That's good." Seeing that the man gave up the idea of committing suicide, Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief and said jokingly:
"So, according to Big Brother's thinking, I can probably summarize a basic outline, that is, you think that the technical capabilities of people after the age of 35 have long since stagnated."
"In other words, five years after graduation, technological progress is not obvious."
"Yes." Seeing that Gu Chen agreed with his point of view, the man nodded silently and continued: "Actually, the passion has begun to fade, and the salary is still very high, and the price-performance ratio is extremely poor for the company."
"But the key is that in the current environment, it is easy to find someone who can replace you."
"And the vast majority of us cannot become irreplaceable experts in the field, so we cannot learn core competitiveness in a small company, and a large company will not make you indispensable."
"Then there is no solution?" Lu Weiwei felt that it would be too sad if life ended like this.
But the man shook his head and complained: "Actually, I am also very ashamed, because I don't know how to fix it."
"Maybe there is still hope?" Gu Chen did not agree with the man's words and expressed his own opinion:
"In my opinion, if you are laid off when you reach the age of 35, it will be difficult. But if you haven't reached it now, you can still make arrangements in advance."
"Plan it in advance?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, the man seemed to agree with him, and the corners of his mouth could not help but raise slightly.
Looking up at Gu Chen, the man chuckled and said, "I have thought about this just like you."
"When I first joined the factory, my master told me not to regard the company as my own and to be prepared to retreat at any time."
"I have some elderly colleagues who have been laid off. I am worried about what to do. But there are several problems here. This is what many colleagues talked to me about the most at that time."
"First, where has my master gone? Second, how is my unlucky colleague doing now?"
"Yes, I want to know too." Seeing the sad look on the man's face, Lu Weiwei also told the truth.
The man waved his hand and said: "Actually, first of all, my master ran away a few years ago when he saw that the performance of our previous product line began to decline."
"I transferred directly from R&D to marketing. When I first went there, it seemed that the situation was not very good. Later, the adjustment was almost the same, and then it gradually became normal."
"Later, I left our factory with several other salesmen and became our factory's agent. It is said that I did pretty well."
"But his operation was so big that people around him said he was sick. But he later told me that people have to take that step, otherwise they will always draw circles around themselves."
"I feel like I can't do this, and I don't dare to do that. In fact, the only thing worth fearing is fear itself."
Rubbing his face with both hands, the man also smiled and joked: "Actually, if you jump out once, you won't be afraid of jumping again in the future."
"My unlucky colleague is still staying at home. He has found several jobs and is very dissatisfied with them all."
"On the one hand, it is true that he cannot pay such a high salary. On the other hand, he has thought clearly about it himself. Going back to work will only postpone the problems he is facing now for a few years, and he will have to face them sooner or later."
"I guess he looks like he wants to start a business, but he hasn't found a good project yet. He may want to pursue poetry and distant places for the time being."
When Lu Weiwei heard what the man said, she nodded silently and asked him curiously: "I have a question here. Can the company lay off people at will?"
"Of course we can't just abolish it." Seeing that Lu Weiwei was relatively naive, the man also smiled teasingly: "But little girl, you have to know that they have many ways to let you go on your own, so we won't go into details."
"The three of us who worked together were all in the same product line. At that time, we all noticed that the ship was sinking."
"Almost the entire market has been captured by one of our companies."
"At this time, my master and I decisively abandoned ship. I was still a grassroots employee at the time, so I didn't have any psychological burden and went to work on research and development for another product line."
"Now I accidentally stepped on the right path. This line is now booming, and I have followed the ups and downs of the ship."
"On the other hand, my unlucky colleague was having such a great time at the time that he joined a few years before me and his level was already very high at that time."
"Although I noticed that the ship was unstable, I still managed to survive until the day when the ship was about to sink, and I finally gave in."
"And I found a problem. For 35-year-old young people, the biggest problem is often the shipwreck, that is, the entire department has been abolished, the product has been eliminated or the technology has become outdated."
"If this kind of problem doesn't happen and we're not thrown into the talent market, there won't be any problems."
Pointing at himself, the man also smiled and said: "As for me, I am just sharing my experience over the years. There are some things that I am not happy to express, and I feel uncomfortable holding them in my heart."
"Understandable." Gu Chen also nodded silently in agreement.
For senior executives like Mr. Men, it is true that they have reached a watershed stage in their careers and are full of a sense of crisis.
Today's men may not be as energetic as they used to be, and may even be easily replaced by young people.
Therefore, it is reasonable to feel anxious and do some unbelievable things.
Fortunately, she and Lu Weiwei had rescued him just now, otherwise we wouldn't know what would happen to the man in the ancient pagoda.
Seeing that the man was obese and looked haggard, Gu Chen also reminded him: "But brother, if we don't say anything else, you should at least exercise well."
"Otherwise, when something happens, you will always lack the motivation to solve it. If you are not physically strong enough, you will get tired easily."
"If you start exercising more, maybe your mental state will get better over time."
"In this way, you won't be easily depressed, you won't feel so weak when things happen, and you can face them bravely. Most problems will not be a problem."
"You're right." Seeing Gu Chen start to enlighten him, the man touched his beer belly and smiled self-deprecatingly:
"In fact, over the years, I have recorded every bad thing I encountered. Every time I review the situation at the end of the year, I can find that 99% of the problems are actually solved naturally."
"Although I was extremely anxious when I was facing the situation, if I find in life that I am not sleeping well, my mental state is not good, I am very negative, and I don't want to do anything, this is not necessarily a brain problem, it may simply be a physical weakness.
."
"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded in agreement and said in agreement: "A person is just a lump of protein and fat like the brain, soaked in a big petri dish, and the petri dish is the body."
"If there is a problem with the petri dish itself, the brain will also have problems, and the symptoms will be various mental illnesses or weakness, not wanting to do anything, etc."
"In fact, the most cutting-edge view in modern psychological research is that all psychological problems are essentially physiological problems and can be solved by modifying the physical constitution."
After a pause, Gu Chen continued to add: "A few days ago, I saw a particularly interesting picture in a medical book."
"This picture is of the human nervous system, and the rest of the body is like a space suit for this nervous system to live on earth."
"In other words, it is a petri dish, responsible for input and output and providing energy."
"So, if you practice and practice in advance, you won't be so slack when you are 35 years old."
"If you were not so lazy and vain, you might not be thrown into the talent market at the age of 35."
"Or if something happens, you have the energy to start over."
Seeing that the man was acquiescing, Gu Chen continued to enlighten: "Secondly, I think we should add uncertainty to life in advance."
"Because in many things nowadays, luck actually plays a big part."
"Everything you do is very certain. You were a good student when you were in school, and you are a good employee when you graduate and work."
"You rarely take risks and live your life step by step. In this case, you can easily become a complete tool and not very superstitious."
"Because it makes no difference to you whether you worship Buddha or not, and you won't feel the difference."
After a pause, Gu Chen continued: "But if you engage in highly risky activities that require a lot of luck, such as fishing for a living and needing to go to sea, whether you can wake up from sleep every day is a problem."
"For example, before you went to sea one time, you worshiped Mazu and then returned smoothly."
"But if you almost die in the sea the next time you don't pray, it's easy for you to feel that there is something beyond the individual."
"So every time you go to pray in the future, if you encounter a storm every time you pray, you will start to reflect, was it not pious enough last time?"
"Well, I know what you mean." The man understood the meaning of Gu Chen's words and nodded, admitting and said:
"That means I add uncertainty into my life so that luck can start to work?"
"Yes." Gu Chen smiled lightly and said teasingly:
"In the final analysis, luck and hard work are actually the two wheels of personal progress. For most people, it is a wheelbarrow. If you follow the steps every day, it is difficult for luck to play a role."
"On the premise of ensuring that you don't lose money, do something and let luck help you make money."
"And the most important thing is, if the ship sinks, you must jump off the ship in advance and don't wait to sink with it."
"Then...then how do I know that the ship is going to sink?" The man frowned and asked Gu Chen in return.
Gu Chen smiled and said: "Brother, you actually know, it's just that you don't want to accept it."
"If you find a problem, act decisively. Most people are mentally weak and afraid of facing uncertainty, so they keep waiting, waiting for good things to happen naturally."
"And this mentality is also a disease and needs to be cured."
Seeing that the man was deep in thought and seemed to have listened, Gu Chen struck while the iron was hot and told the man what he had heard from a victim when he helped him:
"Let me tell you about a victim we helped once, just a few years ago, when I first started working."
"At that time, he resigned from his position at the university and wanted to engage in self-media."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Because he feels that he has a little talent for self-media creation."
"And the system was too frustrating, so he wanted to go out and work alone."
"At that time, his house was robbed and he lost a lot of valuables. We helped him catch the thief, so he came to the police station that day to thank us and also talked to us a lot about his resignation and self-media."
After a pause, Gu Chen also thought back and said: "At that time, my colleague also told him, stop it, it is already a Red Sea, look at how many public accounts there are now? How many big V's are there? There is a huge profit period.
It’s over, it’s a waste of time, and the economy is in recession, blah blah blah.”
"But these few years have passed, and what my colleagues said a few years ago seems to be no problem now."
"But there are already about ten people on his account, and the business is constantly expanding."
Seeing that the man was listening attentively, Gu Chen also continued: "Anyway, the business is doing very well. We were eating out some time ago and happened to bump into him and chatted with him."
"He said that he and his wife discussed the things my colleague said back then, and this is probably the conclusion."
"It actually has no impact to say that the Red Sea is not a red sea, because the masses actually don't know what they want."
"As long as you can give us what others can't, people will still be willing to support you."
"After all, 99% of the market is garbage. As long as someone comes up with something real, it can impress everyone."
"And he said that in fact, my colleague's original judgment was wrong. He believed that self-media is still a blue ocean, and most industries in China are blue oceans."
"Because most of China's products are just usable, but not unusable, they will also face a major upgrade in the future."
"It's just this second point. He doesn't need to rely on huge profits. As long as he has stable profits accumulated, it will be a very scary income."
"After all, in his view, relying on huge profits is immature in itself."
"That's right." After hearing Gu Chen's words, the man nodded frequently: "This profiteering mentality is actually a path dependence disease of peasant entrepreneurs in the early days of reform and opening up. There is no need to learn from them."
"Also, China has just begun and will continue to develop explosively for many years."
"When people have money, they are willing to do things that they liked but couldn't do before."
"Yes." Seeing that the man's thoughts had calmed down a lot, Gu Chen also followed suit and said, "That friend from the self-media did the same thing."
"For example, he invested in a store that sells plus-size women's clothing. In fact, many boys like women's clothing, which gave birth to the market of women's clothing gangsters."
"Also, when he went to the United States to investigate, he found that there are actually shops selling anime and other peripherals there, selling Iron Man helmets and Deadpool's two knives. They are everywhere."
"But these are relatively few in China and will be a selling point, so he is planning to consider developing them in the second tier."
After a pause, the man suddenly became silent and seemed to be thinking about something.
Gu Chen continued: "I have said so much, but to sum up, it is nothing more than...if you have fallen into a trap, it may not be easy to deal with."
"But if not, it helps to prepare in advance."
Spreading his hands, Gu Chen also gestured and said: "First of all, we have to believe that our country will become stronger and stronger."
"Because now is the transition from the early Tang Dynasty to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Only if you believe that the general environment will get better and better, and that the biggest ship will be fine, can you have the determination and courage to do other things and meet challenges."
"Actually, the people who hate the Kuomintang that I have met are all losers, without any exception."
"Those who feel that the country is going to end every day are vain and have no confidence in anything they do."
"The national destiny is just a big elevator, and everyone is in the elevator. Your personal efforts must be superimposed on the national destiny to make sense."
"Well said, your metaphor is very good." After listening to Gu Chen's words and communicating with Gu Chen, the man felt comfortable and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said:
"Can't you see that you understand so many things at such a young age? Indeed, the country's destiny is good, so why should I worry about not having a chance?"
"That's right." Seeing the man finally showing a smile, Lu Weiwei quickly followed suit: "Brother, you also need to start exercising."
"If you have a good physique, you can have a normal mind and be able to concentrate."
"And the great people I have met are the kind of people who can work more than ten hours a day, all year round."
"In my opinion, this kind of people usually have no problem with being 35 years old."
"Are you talking about yourselves?" The man smiled faintly and complained: "I just heard you talking about helping the victims. You two should be policemen, right?"
