"Xiaofan, what did you say?" When Yang's mother was young, she was very beautiful, but after all, she was just an ordinary rural woman. She had not traveled far many times and could not understand what her son said.
Yang's father is similar, working hard all day long. The farthest he has ever been was to work in a factory in the south. He worked overtime all day and had no time to go shopping.
He came back two years later, got married and started a family. Looking back, he had never been to the city center, and his experiences were not necessarily broader than his wife's.
"I'm talking about the world of the rich and powerful." Yang Fan said: "Others may seem very successful, but in fact they also need someone to guide them and show them the way out of difficulties."
“Aren’t rich people all very powerful? Do they need an ordinary person like you to teach them like a teacher?” Yang’s mother couldn’t believe it.
Dad Yang was also surprised and thought his son was really good at boasting.
"Yes." Yang Fan was not very respectful of the rich and powerful, and said, "Didn't there previously be a scandal about a 'qigong master' who was actually nothing? This 'qigong master' who had no real skills was surrounded by many powerful and wealthy people. He had no skills at all, but he could do such a thing. Why can't I, who have skills, do it?"
Mother Yang said nervously, "Xiao Fan, don't do anything deceptive or fraudulent. Sooner or later you will be exposed and get into trouble."
Father Yang also said solemnly: "Son, be a down-to-earth person and don't be blinded by the so-called glory and wealth. You should just focus on making three girlfriends and don't get involved in things like qigong masters."
Even an honest farmer like Dad Yang had seen the news about the deeds of the once famous qigong master.
It's really powerful. He is a psychotropic drug for some powerful people.
Those powerful people have become depressed and listless, are not serious at work, have financial problems, and are psychologically insecure, so they seek solace in feudal superstitions and spend their time in a daze.
They are keen on burning incense, worshipping Buddha, and fortune-telling, praying for promotion and wealth.
Flies don't bite eggs without cracks, which gives people like qigong masters the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, to parade themselves in public, and to make a fortune.
Some entrepreneurs give money to masters because they are attracted by the network of relationships and interest chains between the masters and the powerful.
As a result, these people obeyed the qigong masters' words without a doubt, believed in them without a doubt, and even swore an alliance with them, calling them brothers, and were willing to provide a platform for the qigong masters to spread superstition.
But in the end, this master had a miserable end. After he was arrested, he died of a sudden illness during the trial of the case.
The death was somewhat sudden, it had to be sudden, there couldn’t be too many powerful people involved.
"Dad, don't worry. I have witnessed with my own eyes a world where seven billion people have been pushing society forward for decades. I have even witnessed it enter the long river of history. Looking at the thousands of years of evolution of human civilization, I know..." Yang Fan was confident.
Before he finished speaking, Yang's father sneered: "Do you think I'm blind and can't see how the society where billions of people live has undergone earth-shaking changes?"
Yang Fan thought about it and asked, "Dad, let me ask you, do you think heroes write history, or do you think the times create heroes?"
Dad Yang was stunned. Why do I feel that everything is right
He stammered, "I... I'm not researching this."
Yang Fan smiled and said, "There has never been an era of the richest man, there is only the richest man in the era."
"What do you mean?" asked Yang's father.
Yang Fan seemed to know everything and said, "I want to say that many successful people, even the top ones, think they are great and the masters of the times. For example, the leaders of the largest companies may also think so. But it is completely untrue to regard the leaders of a company as the only factor in the success of a company."
Next, Yang Fan gave Yang's father and mother a good lesson.
The success of a company certainly cannot be achieved without the guidance of outstanding individuals, but it ultimately depends on whether it is born at the right time.
A good seedling can only grow into a towering tree if it encounters suitable soil and climatic conditions.
A good era can provide excellent institutional and resource conditions for the development of enterprises, and can also create sufficient demand for them.
A successful entrepreneur or a successful enterprise must also rely on a great era background.
The success of all companies in history is due to the fact that they seized the opportunities of the times, responded to the needs of the times, and had a strong country behind them.
For example, Henry Ford, who invented the Model T car, greatly improved automobile production efficiency and improved employee welfare by introducing assembly line operations.
But the big background that cannot be ignored is that at that time the entire American economy was prospering, the American continent gradually became the most consumption-capable region in the world, and residents had a strong demand for improved travel methods, which created a huge development market for Ford and other automobile companies.
Similarly, the reason why Bill Gates was able to become the world's richest man at one time was not only because he was born smart and understood computers earlier than others, but also because he grasped the pulse of the revolution in the computer age.
Failure to grasp the needs of the times will often result in half the effort and twice the results, and may even lead to the risk of failure.
As early as 100 years ago, the founder of Porsche tried to build an electric car, but after decades of failure, he finally had to give up his dream.
It was not until a hundred years later, when everything was ready, that new energy electric vehicles began to become popular around the world.
The development of e-commerce was not smooth at the beginning.
The maturity of Internet applications finally created conditions for the rise of e-commerce.
At the same time, as the dominant force of the domestic economy has gradually shifted from investment to domestic demand, the awakening of consumer awareness among more than one billion people has become the biggest dividend for the rise of e-commerce.
Only individuals who seize the opportunities of the times can realize their greatest potential. Great entrepreneurs need great times, and great times create great entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurs of every era have their own footnotes and missions of the era.
As long as entrepreneurs can recognize this era, actively embrace opportunities and seize current opportunities, more great companies and entrepreneurs will be born in the future than now.
Heroes are just products of the times, just like top stars, who are created by capital. If you don’t have this, you can have that. They are completely replaceable products.
"Stop, what you said seems to make sense, but I don't understand." Dad Yang didn't want to listen to his son talking about things he didn't want to know or care about. His responsibility was to grow crops well and find a part-time job in his spare time.
There's no point telling him these things, it will only add to his troubles.
The human brain capacity is limited.
"Dad, you are not much worse than those successful people. Most of them are just like you, but they are just luckier than you."
Yang Fan said: "What I have to do is to lead these successful people to stop involution and do something meaningful, such as participating in the research and development of high-tech products such as chips and lithography machines, so that all important fields of our country can be self-sufficient and not be strangled by other countries. In some fields, once they are strangled, they will not be able to recover for decades. It's not like raising pigs or farming. If we are strangled, we can make up for it after a few months of hard work."
Father Yang was troubled: "Just lead the way if you want, why are you telling me all this? It makes my head hurt."
Yang Fan nodded: "So, even if I tell you, you won't understand. In a word, don't worry about everything. Just know that your son is knowledgeable and smart."
Before Yang's father and mother could say anything, Aunt Thirteen's voice came from the stairs: "Uncle and aunt, Xiaofan is not arrogant. What he said is very modest."
As she spoke, Aunt Thirteen walked towards her with graceful steps.
Even when she was wearing home clothes, she still had a graceful and elegant temperament and was dignified and elegant.
"My mother is a big entrepreneur with a huge business. She says Xiaofan is not only a business genius, but also a patriot who is far-sighted and concerned about his country and the people." Aunt Thirteen sat down next to Yang Fan.
The distance between the two people shows that their relationship is not ordinary.
At least it's not just a simple relationship on the surface that Yang Fan is Guoguo's godfather and Thirteenth Aunt is Guoguo's mother.
Yang Fan held Aunt Thirteen's hand, interlocking their fingers: "My parents are always worried, thinking that I have too many girlfriends and it won't end well. I..."
Thirteenth Aunt wanted to cover Yang Fan's mouth and say that he had a bad mouth and should not say such things.
But in front of Yang's parents, she was a dignified and generous woman. This behavior was not her style. She just glared at Yang Fan, and then said to Yang's parents: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry. Xiaofan has been recognized by Guoguo. Guoguo likes him, so no one can hurt him."
Yang's father and mother were puzzled. How could Guoguo, a girl who could do nothing at all, be involved? How could she be expected to make others unable to do anything
Oh, Guoguo is Wenchu’s daughter, and Wenchu loves his daughter the most.
As long as his daughter likes Xiaofan, Wenchu will do whatever Xiaofan wants.
The problem is, there is another girl in the Liu family who is also dating Xiaofan, but Wenchu doesn’t know about it.
I remember my son said Wenchu was his first girlfriend. This first refers to many aspects.
Power, wealth, figure, temperament...
Maybe in her son’s eyes, Wen Chu is also the most beautiful.
"Guoguo is the most favored child of our generation. In simple terms, she is the future heir and person in charge of our family." Aunt Thirteen explained.
Yang's father and mother didn't know how wealthy families in real life were, but after watching the TV series, they understood a little and then breathed a sigh of relief.
That’s good. My son’s life should be safe.
It's really pitiful how loving parents are. When other people fall in love and get married, they are creating life, but when their own sons fall in love, they feel that they may risk their lives at any time.
Outside the hospital.
Sambo lay on the fence.
Here, it feels like being in the Twelve Cities, close to nature and refreshing.
Suddenly, it raised its head and looked at the tree above its head.
On the tree, a praying mantis was approaching another praying mantis.
The mantis that approached actively was slightly smaller.
The mantis lying still is bigger.
The small mantis is a male mantis.
"Mom said that there is a saying in the human world that lust is the root of all evil. The same is true in our mantis world. We have to be careful." The male mantis approached the female mantis cautiously.
Although I don’t know why the old mantises all say this, the mating season has arrived and this male mantis is suffering day and night. He can’t bear it anymore and his body seems to be out of control.
The strong female mantis does not reject the approach of the male mantis because it is also the mating season for it.
It just sighed and wondered why I, who am so outstanding and strong, have to rely on a male mantis who is weaker than me to give birth to a child
Male mantises are a disgrace to the mantis world, as they are generally smaller than female mantises.
After performing a courtship dance, the male mantis climbs onto the back of the female.
The female mantis did not refuse, and the two mantises stacked together.
During the mating process, the female mantis feels more and more hungry, and her consciousness becomes gradually confused and blurred.
The male mantis feels that the crisis is approaching, but it is reluctant to stop its reproduction behavior. It wants to persist and last longer.
Suddenly.
The female mantis twisted her body and swung her two huge serrated forelimbs, chopping off the head of the male mantis that was still on its back.
Clean and neat.
Under the tree, Sanbao was stunned when he saw this scene.
You were so affectionate just now, but in the blink of an eye you have become my enemy and I want you to die.
What made Sanbao suffer from psychological trauma was that after the female mantis chopped off the male mantis's head, she did not let it go and started to eat the male mantis's head directly.
"The ancients were not deceiving me. Lust is the root of all evil." Before dying, the male mantis sighed.
Before, it heard a mantis say that its father was eaten by its mother.
Before its father, its mother also wanted to eat a male mantis that mated with its mother, but the mantis escaped.
A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse’s son will dig
Genetic inheritance is really very important. The male praying mantis that inherited the genes from his father sighed before he died, thinking that just as his father was eaten, he would be eaten as well.
Why can't I escape
The female mantis ate the male mantis with relish, and she didn't lose out this time.
Last time, I didn't want to mate with the male mantis, so I got beaten up and then violated.
This time the harvest was huge, not only could they reproduce, but they could also have a good meal.
It actually knows what it is doing, and it also knows that any behavior in the animal world is to ensure the continuation of genes.
The absolute selfishness of genes in biological evolution allows them to sacrifice individuals to ensure the continuation of the population.
Humans always think they are right, thinking that we female mantises don’t know that we are eating the father of our children.
They don't understand us mantises, and we don't understand their behaviors.
Sanbao quietly jumped off the fence. In the past, he thought he was very cruel and domineering because he always killed mice.
Now it doesn't think so.
At least it doesn't kill or eat its own kind.
Thinking of this, it felt that Master Thirteen was very scary.
The scumbag is in danger.
You don’t even know when you will be eaten by the Thirteenth Master.
So, Sanbao went back into the house, lay down next to Yang Fan's feet, and rubbed his head against his trouser leg affectionately.
Cherish the days when the scumbag is still alive, and don’t wait until you lose him to regret it.
Yang Fan, who was chatting with his parents, was very confused. Why did the cat suddenly become so attached to him
Usually, after a long separation, Sanbao would stick to me for a while, then walk away arrogantly without even looking at me.
