Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 18 Usually eat with the richest man

That night, everyone did not drink very late, and left early. At eight o'clock in the morning on New Year's Eve, Meng Qian was lying on the bed staring at the ceiling silently. He had been awake for more than two hours.

Facing the new year, Meng Qian struggled for the first time after rebirth. In the previous life, the harm caused to Meng Qian by the death of his parents was beyond comprehension for ordinary people.

Meng Qian had also rebelled, felt that his parents were annoying, and even rebelliously thought that it would be great if his parents died, but when that day really came, Meng Qian almost slapped himself to death.

When he could never see his parents again, and when the two nagging people disappeared completely from his world, Meng Qian finally understood that his parents were the world to him. It's too late, and my own world has also collapsed.

It can be said that Meng Qian spent a long time trying to put this collapsed world together slowly, and naturally experienced a lot of trauma in the process. For example, every year during the Chinese New Year, Meng Qian would lock himself in the room. Dare to go out, dare not face a new year without parents.

Especially the first new year after the death of his parents, at this very moment, Meng Qian in his previous life cried in the room so much that his throat was almost crippled.

He never told anyone about these things, because no one would understand or even laugh at them.

Just like many people think that depression is hypocrisy, only those with depression understand what kind of pain it is. Many patients with depression die because people around them despise or even despise depression.

The same is true of Meng Qian's inner trauma, which no one can understand.

Because he was not married in his previous life, until he was 38 years old, Meng Qian would lock himself in his room on New Year's Eve.

But now the reason why Meng Qian is entangled is to live a new life. Meng Qian wants to get out of this shadow and overcome this psychological obstacle.

It may seem very simple to others, but Meng Qian spent six hours finally convincing himself to take this step.

At twelve noon, Meng Qian came to Hangzhou Bus Station and bought a ticket to go back to his hometown He County in the afternoon.

Sitting at the station holding the ticket, Meng Qian pressed his right hand against his left, trying to calm himself down as much as possible.

At five o'clock in the evening, Meng Qian took two bottles of Erguotou, a bag of peanuts, and some vegetables to Jiushan, He County.

Jiushan is a small hill near the sea in He County. It has been built into an influential scenic spot in later generations. There are golf courses, racetracks, skydiving bases, etc., which attract a lot of people. As of now, it is a graveyard.

Meng Qian would come to sweep the graves every Qingming Festival, so he quickly found the graves of his parents. At this moment, every family had a reunion dinner, and Meng Qian was the only one in the entire cemetery.

After serving the food, Meng Qian poured two glasses of white wine and another glass of Coke.

"Dad, Mom." As soon as he yelled, Meng Qian choked up, and an uncontrollable emotion surged into his heart. It took Meng Qian a few minutes to force it down, "It's late, only Uncle Yang's deli is still open Come on, there are only a few dishes left, don't hold them back.

Fortunately, I bought my mom's favorite white chicken. Oh, by the way, mom, I'm 18. You said I can drink when I'm 18. I'll have some fun with my dad today. "

Meng Qian touched another glass of white wine, took a big sip first, and frowned hotly. In fact, Meng Qian's drinking capacity after that was not bad, but it was out of practice. Naturally, his current body couldn't handle it. After rebirth, the young The body will directly have the capacity for alcohol in the future, that is not funny.

"What the hell." Meng Qian put down his wine glass, "By the way, you guys know that something awesome happened to me, and I was reborn.

In the past, you always said that when I was born, there were strong winds, rain, lightning and thunder, and that I was the chosen one. I always thought you were kidding me, but it turned out that you really didn't lie to me.

I'm thinking, I've finally been reborn once, and I definitely can't waste this opportunity in vain. I plan to make a big deal and turn the whole world upside down, but don't worry, I'll be your son when the time comes. Yes, I promise not to betray your identities.

but

I have been thinking for the past two days, did you make me reborn? Is it because I didn't get into Yan University that Dad is upset? Is it because I don't have a wife and my mother is dissatisfied?

Did you let your son down

If I really died that day, if I hadn't been reborn, wouldn't I be able to see you?

Don't just patronize eating, tell me about your affairs over there, are the people over there as hypocritical as the people here?

Dad, mom.

I miss you so much."

At twelve o'clock in the morning, the sky in He County was filled with fireworks. Meng Qian sat beside the tombstone, quietly watching the new year with his parents.

Fifteen minutes later, when the fireworks were getting colder, Meng Qian packed up his things, "Mom and Dad, I'm going back first, and you all should go to bed early, happy new year."

Not far from Jiushan Mountain is a famous food stall street. Even on New Year's Eve, the place is still brightly lit and crowded. This is also the only way for Meng Qian to go home.

The rectification started here around 2009, after which the people of He County never had the chance to eat that unhealthy but delicious taste.

"Meng Qian!" When he was about to walk out of this street, someone suddenly stopped Meng Qian, "Why are you here?"

A girl who was only about 1.5 meters tall jumped to Meng Qian's side, her face was full of festive joy of the New Year, Meng Qian looked at the other person's face but was a bit impressed, this should be his high school classmate, but he couldn't remember the name anyway I can't get up.

After thinking for a long time but unable to think of a name, Meng Qian gave up, "Passing by, how about you?"

"Let's go out for dinner. There are several people in our class. Why are you going now? Why don't we go together?"

Just as Meng Qian subconsciously wanted to decline, another boy appeared beside him, "Hey, isn't this a great talent?"

This boy, Meng Qian, did remember his name. His name was Jin Miao, because he later developed in Hangzhou, and the two had added WeChat, so Meng Qian could remember.

"Why did the talented man go?" Seeing Meng Qian flustered, Jin Miao continued, "Let's have a drink together."

Meng Qian looked in the direction Jin Miao pointed at, and suddenly changed his mind, "Okay."

Because he saw a person.

"Everyone, look who we met." Jin Miao always looked so enthusiastic, and he will still be like this in the future. His development should be okay, at least the company is quite large, and Meng Qian was invited to visit once.

"Isn't this a great talent? Who invited him?" Another person who looked familiar but couldn't name him teased.

In a small fourth-tier and fifth-tier city, it is difficult for students who can pass the exam for Jiang University or even Tsinghua University and Yan University to keep a low profile at school. Fortunately, Meng Qian had a more easy-going personality in high school, and everyone generally had a good impression of him.

"It just happened to happen." Jin Miao said while beckoning Meng Qian to take a seat.

Meng Qian took a look, there were 10 people in total, three people on each side, two girls on one side, Meng Qian naturally sat beside the two girls.

Glancing at the table that hadn't been served yet, Meng Qian looked for a topic and said, "Are you just here too?"

"That's right, come out to get together after watching the New Year's Eve at home, how about you?" asked the girl whose name Meng Qian couldn't remember.

"I also just finished observing the New Year's Eve. I wanted to go out for a stroll, but I didn't expect to meet you."

After a few brief chats, everyone's focus slowly shifted away from Meng Qian, because there was a person at the dinner table, Zheng Feng.

Zheng Feng and Meng Qian also remembered, and remembered very clearly, this guy was considered the most high-profile classmate in high school, smoking, drinking, skipping classes, fighting puppy love and so on.

Shortly after Meng Qian took his seat, he heard only that he was always there, Barabara.

"After you have been to the United States, you definitely don't want to go back to China like me. The things we use here are leftovers from their use. Let me tell you that in the United States, many people call our place a garbage dump.

Are you willing to live in a dump? Anyway, I don’t like it. There are high-rise buildings and high-tech products everywhere in the United States. The environment there is very good, and the basic necessities of life are very convenient, and the people there are very open. They are not as conservative as we are here. Niu is exciting.

The most important thing is the freedom there. In the United States, you can say whatever you want, do what you want to do, and their parents don’t have as many things as we do, and they don’t care about you at all. "

"Is it easy to find a job over there?" Someone asked Zheng Feng.

"Not only is it easy to find, but also the income is very high. For example, I will start an internship in my sophomore year. If the internship salary over there is converted into soft sister coins, it will be about 10,000 to 20,000 a month."

"Twenty thousand?! So much?"

"That's right, you earn a lot in the United States and live a good life. It's no exaggeration to say that it's heaven compared to China. I advise you to talk to your parents when you go home, especially Jin Miao. Your father is not a good businessman. Okay, go abroad early, I will show you some foreign girls.

When we get a green card in the future, we will no longer be third-class citizens, but the highest-ranking Americans. It's cool to think about it! "

Jin Miao smiled and responded, "My dad asked me to stay and do business with them. I have been helping them develop business in Hangzhou not long after the freshman year, so they will not let me go out to nourish myself. "

"Zheng Feng, tell me about your university studies in the United States. Don't you say that the universities in the United States beat the universities in China?" Someone asked again.

"Hey, ordinary universities in China can't be compared with American universities, but higher education institutions are different, right Meng Qian, don't be silent, let me share with you my life in Jiangda, so that we poor students can also understand higher education. What is the school like?"

Inexplicably cueed by Zheng Feng, Meng Qian shrugged and said, "Study hard and improve every day, nothing special."

"No, Jiang University is a top university in China. I went to this university in the United States. It is very common in the United States, but the school often takes us to visit companies such as Microsoft, and takes us to Bell Labs to do experiments. Oh yes, I heard that I will go to NASA to study next semester, Jiang University can’t be inferior to an ordinary university in the United States, can it?”

Meng Qian didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, turned his cup and said, "The life of Jiang University's students is not as colorful as yours. They all lead a very simple life. They have nothing to do to build atomic bombs, launch rockets, and build airplanes and tanks. Researching and researching aircraft carrier design, anyway, it’s quite boring.”

"What about you?" Zheng Feng seemed a little unhappy, and asked in a strange tone, "Are you building an atomic bomb or an aircraft carrier?"

Meng Qian stared at the cup calmly, "I'm a bottom-up student at Jiang University, and I don't get to do these things. I usually just have dinner with the future richest man."

"Pfft ha ha ha ha ha ~~"

Meng Qian's words caused the audience to burst into laughter. He still lowered his head and followed with a faint smile. He didn't mean to pretend to be forceful when he said this, but he just didn't want to talk to Zheng Feng.

Because of Zheng Feng's performance here, Meng Qian inexplicably thought of He Jingtong and those days when he was bullied by the United States.

But Meng Qian also felt that it was meaningless to fight with people like Zheng Feng. Originally, amidst everyone's laughter, this matter would be over quickly, but Meng Qian glanced casually and suddenly found a look looking at him.

He raised his head and met Jin Miao's eyes, but Jin Miao immediately avoided his eyes, and Meng Qian didn't see any ridicule on his face.

Amidst the laughter of other people, Meng Qian couldn't help but said to himself, "It's interesting."
