Taihu Villa.
Su Mingcheng is cooking.
The phone rings.
"What? Meng Zhiyuan is hospitalized again?"
"what happened?"
"Oh, the rush of fire attacks the heart."
"No big problem?"
Su Mingcheng hung up the phone and thought, "Meng Zhiyuan must have been stimulated.
Nanxing has made breakthroughs in high-end machine tool technology.
Domestic machine tool companies are ushering in spring.
However, Meng Zhiyuan’s Zhongcheng was sold.
The opportunity that originally belonged to Meng Zhiyuan was gone.
Meng Zhiyuan is still not open-minded enough.
Meng Zhiyuan is old.
Meng Zhiyuan's era has passed. "
Su Mingcheng shook his head and continued cooking.
Su Mingcheng did not tell Su Mingyu that Meng Zhiyuan was hospitalized.
afternoon.
Sincerely.
"What? Lao Meng is hospitalized?" Liu Qing also received the news.
"what's the situation?"
"Afraid?"
"Yes! You deserve it!" Liu Qing cursed a few times in relief, hung up the phone, and went to Su Mingyu's office.
"Boss, Lao Meng is going to be pissed to death."
"What?" Su Mingyu hasn't received the news that Meng Zhiyuan is hospitalized.
"Lao Meng was so angry that he was hospitalized."
"Ah?!" Su Mingyu was still subconsciously worried when she heard something happened to Meng Zhiyuan.
"I just received the news that Lao Meng was knocked out and is now in the hospital," Liu Qing explained.
"Are you ok?"
"It's okay. I heard that he was sent to the hospital in time and there is no big problem."
"I know, go and do your work." Su Mingyu sent Liu Qing away.
Su Mingyu walked to the window and couldn't help but worry about Meng Zhiyuan.
Although Meng Zhiyuan set up a trap to deceive Su Mingyu, Meng Zhiyuan used to be quite considerate of Su Mingyu.
He gave Su Mingyu many opportunities and made Su Mingyu a sales manager.
Meng Zhiyuan had plans and care for Su Mingyu.
Su Mingyu was resentful and grateful to Meng Zhiyuan.
Past events emerge one by one.
"What are you trying to make money for?"
"My salesmen, if they do well, will receive a commission of 300,000 yuan in half a year."
This is what Meng Zhiyuan said when he and Su Mingyu met for the first time.
"Stop working overtime and go back to rest."
"Why don't you have a boyfriend yet? Find one quickly."
The scenes of getting along with Meng Zhiyuan in the past are still vivid in my mind.
Su Mingyu's eyes were a little blurry.
After hesitating, he called Su Mingcheng.
"Second brother, I heard that Mr. Meng is ill and hospitalized?"
"Yes, I just heard about it too."
"Is Mr. Meng okay?"
"It's okay. It's just a moment of anger, so there's nothing wrong with it."
"As long as it's okay, second brother, I'll go to your place for dinner tonight."
"Okay."
dinner.
"Second brother, about high-end machine tools." Su Mingyu chatted with Su Mingcheng about the company.
Su Mingyu seemed to have forgotten Meng Zhiyuan and did not mention Meng Zhiyuan.
Su Mingcheng even forgot about Meng Zhiyuan.
Had a meal.
Su Mingyu leaves.
From beginning to end, Su Mingyu said nothing about Meng Zhiyuan.
The next day.
Su Mingyu sent someone to the hospital and sent fruits and flowers to Meng Zhiyuan as a token of appreciation.
Not many people went to visit Meng Zhiyuan.
Meng Zhiyuan's wife and son were not in the ward.
Only the servants at home were taking care of Meng Zhiyuan.
Meng Zhiyuan is no longer Mr. Meng.
Not many people care whether Meng Zhiyuan is hospitalized or not.
Time passes day by day.
Su Mingyu's career is booming.
Su Mingyu became a strong woman again.
Shi Tiandong cooks and takes care of the children at home.
Shi Tiandong is the man behind Su Mingyu, who silently contributes to the family.
Domestically, Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu both have good careers.
Su Daqiang and Zhao Meilan have a good life after retirement and live a very comfortable life.
Su Mingzhe, who is far away in Chou Country, is in trouble.
Su Mingzhe was laid off.
In the TV series, Su Mingzhe was laid off because at a critical time when the company was laying off employees, Su Mingzhe was laid off because Zhao Meilan died of illness and asked for leave to return to China.
Now, nothing happened to Zhao Meilan, and there was no need for Su Mingzhe to take leave to go home, but Su Mingzhe was still laid off.
Su Mingzhe was laid off not because of anything else, but because Su Mingzhe had not made any progress after working for so many years.
What I did in my twenties, I am still doing in my thirties now.
Therefore, Su Mingzhe was eliminated.
Ugly country.
Su Mingzhe's house.
"Fei Fei, don't worry, I will find a job as soon as possible." Su Mingzhe comforted Wu Fei.
Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei's income is not high, and they have to repay their mortgage every month and have various expenses.
They don't have much left over.
When you have a job, you can maintain it.
Now that Su Mingzhe's job is gone, he can barely maintain it for a short time, but it won't work for a long time.
"I know, I believe you can find a job." Wu Fei was a little disappointed with Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe is a top student, but after working, Su Mingzhe did not perform very well.
Su Mingzhe was very mediocre after working.
As for Wu Fei, although he is also an international student, his job is of a service nature, which does not require too much professional knowledge and the income is not high.
Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei are one of many international students. They are very ordinary.
He is so ordinary that he can hardly survive in the Ugly Country.
Every year, many Daxia people who cannot survive in Chou Country return home.
However, Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei didn't want to go back.
The main reason: face issues.
Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei finally got their green cards in Chou Country.
Now I say I can’t survive anymore and want to go back, it’s so embarrassing.
If they go back, wouldn't their years in Chou Country have been wasted?
The days passed.
Su Mingzhe interviewed several companies.
But no company wants the 'old man' Su Mingzhe.
That's right.
Su Mingzhe is old.
The company is recruiting, and it wants young men in their twenties.
I don’t want Su Mingzhe, an old IT man in his thirties.
It is the time when the Ugly Country is experiencing an economic downturn.
Jobs are not that easy to find.
A month passed.
In the IT industry, Su Mingzhe could not find a job.
Su Mingzhe had to find other jobs.
Su Mingzhe also submitted his resume for other jobs such as salesperson.
However, either the resume was submitted and nothing happened, or there was no response after the interview.
Su Mingzhe couldn't find a job.
Su Mingzhe doesn't want to work in a 'blue collar' job yet.
I heard that blue-collar wages in Chou Country are not low, even higher than white-collar wages.
This is very different from the situation in China.
Domestic blue-collar workers do hard and tiring work, and their wages are much lower than those of white-collar workers.
"When can you let go of your dignity?"
"We can't survive anymore!"
"What about the mortgage and car loans this month?" Wu Fei couldn't help but get angry with Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe had no income and relied on Wu Fei to support his family.
But Wu Fei's salary is not high.
During the time when Su Mingzhe was unemployed, his family had been spending what little savings they had.
The money was getting less and less, and Wu Fei couldn't help but get angry.
Su Mingzhe did not argue with Wu Fei.
Su Mingzhe remained silent.
Cook, eat, put the kids to bed.
Su Mingzhe was silent for a long time, "I heard that someone is going to serve the dishes. How about I go too?"
Su Mingzhe is going to work as a blue-collar worker.
Su Mingzhe had no choice.
If Su Mingzhe doesn't work anymore, the family will not be able to survive.
"Okay, you can earn a lot from serving dishes." Wu Fei was stunned for a moment and agreed.
If you don't agree, you can't let the house be auctioned off just to save face.
Not a few days.
Su Mingzhe started serving dishes in the restaurant.
The person serving the plate with Su Mingzhe was Su Mingzhe's classmate.
They studied abroad together and studied IT.
They were all in their thirties and had been laid off.
None of them can find a job, so they can only work as blue-collar workers to make ends meet.
"Mingzhe, it's actually nothing, it's fine if we serve the dishes.
I don’t want to program and read code every day.
Walking back and forth is good for your health.
Over the years, I have been sitting in an office, and my health has deteriorated.
Unexpectedly, in the past few months of serving dishes, my health has improved a lot. "
"Yes, yes, it's good." Su Mingzhe still felt a little embarrassed and confused.
Taihu Villa.
Su Mingcheng answered the phone.
"What? My eldest brother was laid off? Now he's serving dishes?"
Su Mingcheng also knew people in Chou Country.
Someone told Su Mingcheng about Su Mingzhe's situation.
"Isn't it hard to find a job in Chou Country?"
"Is it so difficult to find a job in IT?"
"Oh, many people have returned to China, and it's easier to find jobs in China."
"Many people are unwilling to return to China, are they afraid of being embarrassed?"
"knew."
Su Mingcheng hung up the phone.
"Would you like to help Su Mingzhe find a job?"
In the TV series, after Su Mingzhe lost his job, it was Su Mingyu who helped Su Mingzhe find a job.
Now, Su Mingcheng can also help Su Mingzhe solve work problems.
But, is Su Mingzhe willing to accept help?
Su Mingzhe is a very face-conscious person.
Even if Su Mingcheng 'secretly' helps Su Mingzhe solve work problems.
But as time goes by, this matter will definitely not be hidden.
Su Mingzhe must feel very embarrassed.
"I still won't help Su Mingzhe find a job."
Su Mingcheng did not contact Su Mingzhe or tell anyone about Su Mingzhe.
Time passes like this day by day.
In a blink of an eye, it’s time to celebrate the New Year again.
"Hey, brother, I bought a plane ticket for you. You are coming back for a reunion during the Chinese New Year." Su Mingcheng called Su Mingzhe.
"Okay, got it, Mingcheng, let's go back." Su Mingzhe was still holding the plate.
Su Mingzhe hasn't found a decent job yet.
But after serving dishes for a few months, Su Mingzhe also felt that serving dishes was quite good.
The income is not low, and I don’t want to bother looking for bugs.
Carrying dishes back and forth can also give you some exercise.
Su Mingzhe also felt that his health had indeed improved.
Now Su Mingzhe has changed a bit and is more mature.
Airport.
"Brother, here!" Su Mingcheng came to pick him up alone.
"Mingcheng!" Su Mingzhe gave Su Mingcheng a hug.
"Brother, I see you are in good spirits. Are you fine in Chou Country?" Su Mingcheng asked casually in the car.
"It's all good." Su Mingzhe smiled a little reluctantly.
He dare not let his family know about his work.
"Brother, your parents are getting older, have you ever thought about coming back to develop?" Su Mingcheng asked.
"Come back?" Su Mingzhe also thought about returning to China, but felt that it would be a 'loss' and the green card he finally got was wasted.
"Yes, brother, the country is developing very well now. Those of you who study IT will have a high annual salary."
"Mingcheng, your eldest brother and I have lived in Chou Country for ten years. If we return to China, I might not be able to adapt." Wu Fei interrupted.
She doesn't want to go back to her country.
Although Wu Fei is an only child, she just doesn't want to return to China.
It's not that Wu Fei doesn't want to take care of his parents, but Wu Fei's choice didn't consider the elderly at home.
I heard that demons have old people and their children are abroad.
As for the old man, he chose to commit suicide because of various reasons.
"That's right. You have lived in Chou Country for a long time, and you will indeed have a lot of discomfort when you return home." Su Mingcheng said with a smile. He didn't argue.
Everyone's choice is different.
Choice is destiny.
If you choose not to study when you were a child, your life path will change.
When you grow up and choose a certain industry, your life will be different.
Everyone wants to be successful, everyone wants to be financially free, and everyone wants to be free and comfortable.
But, you have to make the right choice to do it.
"Mingcheng, we will come back often to visit when we are free in the future." Su Mingzhe also felt that his parents were getting older and he should visit them often.
Wu Fei wanted to say something but didn't.
Wu Fei was worried that he would not be able to afford the air tickets after traveling so many times.
"Mingzhe, Wu Fei, Xiaomi, you are back!" When they got home, Su Daqiang, Zhao Meilan and others happily welcomed Su Mingzhe and the others back.
"Mom and Dad." Su Mingzhe looked at Su Daqiang and Zhao Meilan, who had more gray hair, with moist eyes.
Su Mingzhe suddenly wanted to be with Su Daqiang and Zhao Meilan.
After returning to China, this idea appeared in Su Mingzhe's mind.
Su Mingcheng's words came to mind again.
Su Mingzhe feels that it is not impossible to return to China for development.
"Brother, I heard that Chou Country's economy is in recession. Is it having a big impact on your Silicon Valley side?" Su Mingyu asked.
Su Mingyu heard about Chou Country.
I heard that many people were laid off in Silicon Valley.
"Fortunately, the impact is not big." Su Mingzhe chose to lie.
"That's good. I heard that many people over there were laid off." Su Mingyu spoke carelessly and didn't pay much attention.
"When others are laid off, it's because they are not good at academics. Mingzhe is different. He is a top student and cannot be laid off." Su Daqiang said.
In the hearts of Su Daqiang and Zhao Meilan, Su Mingzhe is very good, excellent in all aspects, and cannot be laid off.
"Yes, yes, eldest brother can't be laid off." Su Mingyu said with a smile.
Su Mingzhe went to rest soon.
Su Mingzhe was a little depressed.
He was laid off and was afraid to tell his family.
He is a person with a good face and does not want his embarrassing side to be seen by his family.
Wu Fei patted Su Mingzhe on the shoulder to express comfort.
"Fei Fei, don't worry, I will definitely find a job again."
Thirty years old.
The Su family had New Year's Eve dinner together.
"cheers!"
“Mingcheng’s craftsmanship is beyond praise, it’s so delicious.”
"Mingcheng, I have to trouble you to teach me how to cook this time." Wu Fei was greedy, and every time he came back, he would learn some cooking skills from Su Mingcheng.
"Okay, sister-in-law." Su Mingcheng agreed.
"Mom and Dad, let me toast you." Su Mingzhe said his blessing.
"Mingcheng, Mingyu, Lili, Xiaoshi, I respect you. I'm not at home, and my parents need you to take care of them." Su Mingzhe suddenly felt guilty.
Su Mingzhe felt that he was too selfish before.
Ever since I was a child, I have only focused on my own studies.
Don't care about anything at home.
Now, in his thirties, his parents are old, and he, Su Mingzhe, still doesn't care about family affairs.
"Come, let's have another drink!" Su Mingzhe, who had something on his mind, kept drinking.
Others advised Su Mingzhe to drink less.
But, "Brother, let me toast you." Su Mingcheng did not persuade him.
Su Mingcheng accompanied Su Mingzhe, drinking cup after cup.
Soon, Su Mingzhe became drunk and fell unconscious.
"Mingcheng, why didn't you persuade Mingzhe and why did you still drink with him like that?" Su Daqiang complained.
"I'm happy." Su Mingcheng dealt with it casually.
Su Mingyu felt that it was abnormal for Su Mingcheng and Su Mingzhe to drink so much, but she didn't ask any more questions.
bedroom.
"Mingcheng, what happened to you today?" Zhu Li asked.
She knew something was wrong with Su Mingcheng just now.
"Lili, you haven't noticed that brother is in a bad mood and wants to have a few more drinks, so I will accompany him."
"What's wrong, brother? Why are you in a bad mood?"
"I don't know, there must be something bad going on." Su Mingcheng concealed it for Su Mingzhe. (End of chapter)
