Chapter 2 The past success

8days ago Urban Novels 7
34 years ago, I was born in a small city with a population of only more than 100,000. My parents are both ordinary working-class people and have no ability to support my future life. Although they have done their best to support me in school, I still have no success and only went to an extremely ordinary junior college in Harbin.

However, I feel that I am still working hard. After graduating from university in 2000, I found a relatively stable job in Harbin. It was my first job when I was in school and did graphic design.

In fact, three years of college did not bring me any real survival advantages. However, at school, I was fortunate to get the heart of my current wife Gao Linna (the name is a bit tacky, but the fashionable names that parents of that era could think of were those, and she herself always felt that her name was vulgar).

After chasing for two years, we finally got together (that's what, you know). She was a class lower than me and was a well-known department girl in the school.

In fact, in my heart, she is even comparable to those beauty pageants in the world.

Looks like, to be honest, she looks like Korean singer Lee Hyo-ri. If she goes to the celebrity face competition, she will definitely win the award...

Uh, at least that's what I think.

Not to mention the figure, the height of 168 and the weight has always been around 110, with the front and back raised, and the long legs have almost no extra fat. If it weren't for the fact that Xiaomeng had less bulge in the lower abdomen, the age of 33 told others that 23 would definitely not doubt it.

My best friend, Big Goose, often says why a watery flower must be inserted into cow dung like me?

Xiaomeng is our daughter, 6 years old. I am so cute that every time I go home and pick it up, I want to bite a big bite on my tender pink face, but I can't bear to really bite it.

I graduated in 2000 and stayed in Harbin, in fact, to accompany her.

After she graduated in 2001, she found a public primary school in Harbin to be an art teacher under the arrangement of her family.

The income is very low, but after all, it is a strong job. Those who can get into such places seriously then have to have some backstage.

However, her family is not a very capable family. Her parents are the most ordinary cadres in the organs. The biggest official she has become in her life is the deputy section chief.

Her family didn't give us any resistance. When she was a teenager, her father took her brother to find another wife. Her mother did not remarry, and devoted all her energy to her and spoiled her very much. She generally did not strongly oppose her decision.

My home?

My mother directly determined that this was her daughter-in-law when she saw her the first time she saw her.

In 2003, I finally got what I wanted and married the beauty home with dignified manner.

That year was also the beginning of my career. Not long after I got married, I quit my job and jointly established a small printing factory with a colleague.

Although I was struggling at the beginning, I was a child who was unyielding and hardworking. By the time my daughter was born in 2006, the printing factory had grown to more than 40 workers, with a brand new German 6-color Heidelberg speed printer and a full set of automatic waterless bottle label printing button cutting machines (these two sets of equipment alone were worth more than 4 million). At this time, my college classmates were basically still struggling to make a living in pain and struggle.

The small success of my career gradually made my ambitions swell.

I have begun to think about developing to a higher level.

In 2007, something happened that seemed very bad to Na and her family but I thought it was a good thing.

She had just returned to school to work after maternity leave, but found that the original leader had changed. Logically, this would not affect the teachers below, but their new leader was a pervert. On the surface, she agreed to arrange for her to go back to class, but secretly called Na to go to his house to discuss work at night.

I discussed it tonight and I would go to his house!

Na's personality is very restrained. She rarely takes the initiative to talk to unfamiliar people, let alone go to a new leader's house to talk about shit, so she turned her cold face and rejected the person.

The man didn't say anything on the surface, but he just didn't arrange classes for Na. I thought it would be quite comfortable to drink tea and read newspapers without substituting classes, but soon, I came to the document to transfer Na to the admissions office and was responsible for going to the community.

Is that what a formal teacher does?

But they just said, if they did it, they would go to the admissions office. If they didn’t, they would leave.

Na resigned in anger.

Na lost her job, so I felt that she was taking care of her husband and tutoring her daughter at home. Her daughter had just been weaned, and my mother and her mother were not in Harbin. She could only take turns to take care of the children on both sides. Now she is free, so I can completely let go and expand my career to get to the next level.

In early 2008, I took out my own shares from the printing factory and sold the factory to my partner at that time. With more than 3 million yuan and full of enthusiasm, I boarded the train to Beijing.

When I arrived in Beijing, I found that the 3 million yuan was a huge sum of money in my house, and in Beijing, I couldn’t even give me a single one.

But I am mentally prepared to deal with the situation I need to face next. Isn’t it just a start-up? And I now have startup capital, I have the brain and enough experience. More importantly, I have a home that will not bring me any downfall. Although I started a business alone in Beijing at the beginning and was both bitter and lonely, I still persevered.

I rented an office outside the North 5th Ring Road, registered an advertising company, and hired 20 salesmen to help me travel to the surrounding districts and counties. While I went to Shenzhen several times and contacted several large printing factories. The day before the opening of the highly anticipated Olympic Games, I signed my first order of more than 100,000 after arriving in Beijing.

The printing business was quite profitable in 2008, but it was not a stable resource after all. I hired a retired veteran cadre as my consultant for 10,000 yuan a month. I didn’t need to do any actual business. Just call me to contact the government staff of Qinghe, Yongfeng and other surrounding districts and counties for dinner.

Soon my public relations saw results. With my heavy money and temptation, I successively won several not-so-main agents for street signs and knife flag advertising spaces.

No matter how small a sparrow is, it is still meat.

The outdoor advertising spaces in these garbage locations are not enough to allow me to develop, but they are enough to establish myself in the heart of Beijing, a cultural metropolis and the motherland.

Ten years later, Na Na brought her daughter to Beijing. After two years of hard separation, the reunion made me even more determined to prevent my wife and daughter from suffering from longing for each other.

In 2011, I successfully transformed the company from a limited company to a joint-stock company, and the number of employees in the company increased to more than 100. The son of the old cadre I met in Beijing worked in the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau. This person helped me a lot. Although it was not a very direct thing, it saved me a lot of trouble and avoided many detours. Although ZF clearly stipulated that public officials could not participate in economic operations, my actual partner is him, and I have invested nearly five million in me.

After Na came to Beijing, she urged me to buy a house as soon as possible so that our family would be stable.

In 11 years, my company has grown and grown in great strides, and my house buying plan has finally been implemented. I bought a second-hand house of more than 100 square meters in a remote community in Huilongguan. Although it cost me nearly three million, when I took Na and Xiaomeng to open the security door of my new home with the keys, I really felt that the hard work of so many years was not in vain. In the newly renovated spacious living room, the three of us hugged each other excitedly and cried with joy.

Xiaomeng was the happiest thing, and finally had her own room (although she basically never went to sleep alone later). Na was so happy that she was back to the age we had just met. She smiled like a blooming peony all day long. No, although the peony is graceful and rich, she is not as flawless and innocent as Na.

If time can be frozen forever in 11 years, what a happy family we should be.

Now, all of this has become my most painful memory.

After Na arrived in Beijing, she took care of her child at home for nearly a year. In July 2011, the second month after we got our house, she discussed with me and wanted to go out to find a job.

I had no idea that her job search this time was actually a turning point in my life and the beginning of my tragedy.

I think she is only 31 years old, she can't say she is young, but she will never be old. When the child is 5 years old, she can take my mother or her mother to take care of her. If it really doesn't work, it's okay to send her to the community kindergarten. She just tied her at home all day long, so she won't be fussed to death and will get sick. So she expressed her full support without thinking, and she also hopes that she can come to the company to help me.

She also studied advertising design, and she was even more serious than me in terms of painting literacy. However, her cultural courses were not good (resentment, most of the people who studied art were very important in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and English). She had to go to our school (not that she looked down on our school at that time, but later she came into contact with more people and realized how important it was to have a well-known background). If she could really come to the company to help me, not to mention how effective it would be, she would help me review the design drafts and other things, and I would be much more relaxed.

She refused. In her concept, even if she really works in my company, others will treat her as the boss (uh, that's for sure). She doesn't want to rely on me for everything, and always wants to try her own way.

I was secretly thinking in my heart, if you go out to work, you will earn several thousand yuan a month if you earn so many competition, you will have to come back to be your boss’s wife in a few months?

But she was stubborn and looked for it as soon as she said she wanted to search. She went online and went to a job fair. Soon, several units gave her an interview notice.

But after several interviews, she became a little discouraged.

Her age and qualifications have problems when asked about key points. Her education is nothing, and her works are not bad. The problem is that she is 31 years old (she usually says she is 28) has children (this cannot be concealed, nor can she hide it). Moreover, most importantly, she has never really been in the design industry at all.

I was a little gloating.

One day she went out for an interview and came back very early. As soon as she entered the house, she swung her two carefully selected high-heeled sandals when she left, pouted and ran to the kitchen to pick out half of the watermelon from the refrigerator and dig it out and eat it with a spoon while sitting in the sofa.

It just so happened that day that I had time and took Xiaomeng at home.

No need to ask, the result is obvious.

Xiao Meng didn't care about her mother's face, and hugged the bear and threw herself into Na's arms.

Holding her daughter, Na glanced at me with a smirk on her face, and shouted at me with her nose: "You're just laughing at me?"Are you happy?

I laughed out loud.

Before I could speak, a sofa cushion flew straight over. Just as it was on my face, Xiao Meng also excitedly threw the hug bear over.

Oh, Wave, you stinky kid!Bullying me with your stinky mom?

The three of them were in a mess and started to quarrel on the spacious living room floor.

But within a few days, around the end of August, she was hired by a training institution.

I really didn't expect this. She has been a teacher for so long and is a good art student. Isn't this the talent needed by the training institution?
