Chapter 226 In order to defeat you, I killed myself!
Is Cheng always right?
Is Xiao Zhao’s persistence wrong?
In fact, President Cheng has no answer to this question - he is not an old scholar studying sociology, he is just an ordinary man with a little more experience.
Many times, Mr. Cheng adheres to a pragmatic methodology, which is the means of doing things.
When faced with the amazingly talented Mexican young man Sergey, Chengdu chose to increase his strength first and then train him.
When dealing with Domo, who has an extraordinary background and is cautious in doing things, Mr. Cheng chose the most polite and respectful social skills because he did not understand him.
But Zhao Hongjin was different. Mr. Cheng could not give her any strength, nor was he willing to deal with it with mediocre and perfunctory clichés.
Zhao Hongjin is an interesting girl. She has bright and breathtaking ideals, and she has naive but heartbreaking persistence.
Maybe sometimes what she insists on and cares about is not so down-to-earth, but this is exactly her cute side.
Mr. Cheng is right, the real human world is terrible and negative.
But in such a rotten world, there are always people working hard to patch things up.
Zhao Hongjin is that kind of person. She may not have done much for the time being, but she has such potential.
In fact, every time he sees the lights shining on the nineteen-year-old girl, Cheng Daqi feels that he is looking at a fragile work of art.
She has a strong heart, but she does lack some experience and tempering.
The dazzling ideals and wonderful soul that Zhao Hongjin possessed were like bubbles that could burst at the touch of a finger, and he dealt with them carefully.
Mr. Cheng cannot deceive the naive with his sophistication, and Mr. Cheng is not willing to simply refute her or deceive her.
So, he chose a soft persuasion method that was 100% error-free - Come, Xiao Zhao, I will take you to watch a movie.
When being pushed onto the bed by Cheng Daqi, Zhao Hongjin was a little confused.
The sunset in Long Beach has already appeared, and the lighting in the high-rise apartment is very good, but the curtains in Dormer's bedroom are half closed, which makes the room seem a little dark.
A dark bedroom, a bright man, and a soft mattress.
The nineteen-year-old girl encountered this situation for the first time, and she subconsciously hugged her arms tightly.
Defense Bank’s social movements were easy to understand. Mr. Cheng pulled up a chair to sit next to her and turned on the projection.
"Da Qi, aren't we here for a wine tasting party? How come you brought me to the bedroom while you were tasting wine?"
Sister Zhao was actually showing mercy. - She's even smiling.
She knew very well what kind of person Cheng Daqi was. Sometimes this man lacked some principles, but overall he was still very good and would never act like a beast.
"Huh? Zhao, I actually want to show you a movie that can help you understand me.
"Scent of a Woman" is a classic in film history, watch it You will understand later.”
While replying to the girl’s words, Mr. Cheng quickly found this film.
"It smells like greasy discipline, ha." Zhao Hongjin is not polite. She is not the one who made the mistake today.
"And what's the name of this? ScentofaWoman, the smell of a woman?"
"Ha, the protagonists of this story are two men, and their relationship with women is not that big." Mr. Cheng explained.
"Is it a product of American political correctness? A certain male protagonist is a woman at heart. I understand, Daqi, you don't have to feel inferior." Zhao Hongjin joked with a smile.
She thought that Mr. Cheng just wanted to make today's unpleasantness go away.
Logically speaking, Mr. Cheng's escape seemed a bit shameful, but Xiao Zhao just shook his head in his heart.
Friends, what can you do?
It is normal to have different thoughts. She has complained and reminded her. At least today she does not intend to continue to be that annoying girl.
“Xiao Zhao, I understand that you have a strong opinion on me, but I really don’t like men.
Lil, that big fool, he actually likes that nosy stick guy. .”
Finding Domo on the phone, Mr. Cheng called room service.
"Ah?" Zhao Hongjin was a little dumbfounded.
Brother, are you serious?
Liel was over two meters tall and weighed hundreds of pounds, and he even dragged the stick man away
Could it be?
“Here we go, look, the director of this film is Martin Brest, a director of the baby boomer generation.
That generation of directors coincided with the Vietnam War and the hippie movement when they were young, which enabled them to shoot many wonderful stories. ”
“Is there anything special about the baby boomer generation? ”
The peach-eyed girl was attracted by Mr. Cheng’s introduction.
“Let’s talk about the time period first. The conventional baby boomer generation refers to the period from the late 1950s to the 1970s. People born during this period were lucky enough to catch up with the dividends of American national expansion after World War II.
When they were young, they had no worries about food and clothing. When they were young, they began to be influenced by the ideas behind the Iron Curtain. They reflected on war and the shortcomings of the capitalist system, which gave birth to the hippie movement that swept the country for a while.
Economically, as adults, they caught up with the dividend period for the United States to restructure the global trading system. When they entered middle age, they
got too far away. Look at this man, he is blind, and he was born in Baby boomers even fought in the Vietnam War. ”
Mr. Cheng’s explanation was very interesting. Zhao Hongjin had already been led into thinking about the baby boomer generation by his words.
Mr. Cheng took advantage of the opportunity to draw her attention to the movie. She was immediately immersed in the story on the projection screen
——
Duo Mo opened the door - he was called by Mr. Cheng for room service.
Noticing Mr. Cheng’s female companion sitting on his bed, he raised his head and glanced at Cheng Daqi, sighing softly.
To be honest, this is the first time for Thomas to do this kind of work, and it is still at his own home.
This made him feel like he was being raped by his husband.
My house, my me, is my bed, but you use it quite happily?
You even asked me to bring you food?
"Domo, please excuse me."
Standing up and taking the tray from the fat cook, Mr. Cheng patted him on the shoulder.
"Chan, what happened to the Korean? Isn't Lille a subordinate of Eris?"
Domo came with a question. He had never seen Eris before. For That Balkan man who lacked any real friendliness, Thomas always had some sense of caution.
"Ha, you don't have to worry. That person won't die. Lille will take care of it. If there is any trouble, you won't be involved."
Mr. Cheng understood why Domo came over in person. He replied with a smile.
The fat cook's eyes flickered as he analyzed the meaning of Cheng Daqi's words.
However, he quickly figured out the joints, and Domo invited with a smile.
"Chan, we can talk again tonight. Regarding my catering company, I actually have a preliminary idea."
"What an honor!"
Smart people speak straightforwardly, and Mr. Cheng likes smart people like Thomas.
"Okay, I won't disturb your good things. There is a condom under the pillow, and the blue one is the special wolf tooth model."
The fat cook left with a smirk on his face. Mr. Cheng was left standing at the door with a dark look on his face.
What a special wolf tooth model!
Little fat man, you look like a dog, but I didn’t expect you to be quite playful!
Also, Xiao Zhao and I are seriously studying movies!
——
“Mr. Lieutenant Colonel is very charming, but do you want to hint to me through his behavior that you are not doing too much?”
Seriously? People do seem bored sometimes, and Zhao Hongjin even resists discipline when watching a movie. Mr. Cheng did not expect this step. "What I want you to understand more is Charlie's choice. You are very similar to Charlie, Zhao. The real world is not an utopia, and it does not meet the romantic expectations of idealists."
Charlie was abandoned by his friends. He stood alone on the so-called 'principles' and stood on the miserable judgment seat.
"He is right, but he will be tied to the cross and tried. That is the problem."
Mr. Cheng's words silenced Zhao Hongjin, and the peach-eyed girl had to admit that Cheng This movie I always take her to watch is really thought-provoking.
"Grand weapon, but you are not being put on the cross, and no one is going to burn you to death, so why not be a simple and sincere person?"
The peach-eyed girl understands the choice of being a great person, and also understands the meaning that morality cannot become the so-called unshakable principle.
But she always knew that Mr. Cheng was not forced to a dead end, and he was even thriving.
“I am not Charlie, and there is no heroic lieutenant colonel in the real world to save me.
Our life is not a movie, let alone a game that can be archived.
Every I have to be very careful at every level, not making mistakes, and trying to gain as much as possible.”
Mr. Cheng handed her a glass of fruit wine and replied sadly.
There are no superheroes in his life, and those who save him and help him are all imperfect individuals.
However, Mr. Cheng still feels that he is lucky. At least he still has Zhao Hongjin, a close friend who can confide his inner worries.
Compared with the so-called physical collision, the companionship that can truly understand the soul is a luxury - a luxury that many people can't get in their lifetime.
Even the wily Teacher Gao will be defeated by a beautiful woman who can read "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli".
The peach-eyed girl sat cross-legged on the bed, holding a wine glass with one hand and rubbing her temples with the other.
She was thinking, thinking about her own thoughts, and thinking about the story in the movie.
“But I actually don’t like the kind of behavior in movies that ignores rules for self-enjoyment. Blind driving and so on seem to express the so-called freedom to enjoy life and enjoy beauty, but this is A kind of complete selfishness.
If we become selfish people after all, wouldn’t that be betraying ourselves? "
Zhao Hongjin always remembers that night. What He Cheng Daqi thought about after revealing his heart.
Mr. Cheng is walking on a difficult road. She can't provide much help, but she can be a companion and remind him at the appropriate time.
"There is such a saying, never forget your original intention, you should know it, right?"
Mr. Cheng picked up a piece of watermelon with a fork and handed it to Xiao Zhao while eating.
"Well~ of course, it is usually followed by the sentence "Remember the mission."
At this point, she suddenly felt very interesting, and she realized that she had misunderstood him as a master.
She thought Cheng always wanted to avoid problems and took her to watch an inexplicable movie, but that was never the case.
Not only did Cheng Daqi not escape, but he chose a clever way to answer his questions.
It’s just, Daqi, you’ve gone so far now, what on earth are you going to say?
“I think it is wrong not to forget the original intention. People’s original intention is constantly changing, which is determined by people’s experience and understanding.
Many children will be seven or eight years old. When you write something like ‘my ideal’, do you still remember what your ideal was at that time?”
Mr. Cheng's words were so shocking that Zhao Hongjin was so shocked that he even forgot to chew them.
"Well, when I grow up, I want to be an astronaut," the peach-eyed girl replied a little shyly.
"Hahahahaha, Zhao, are you not shy about black history at all? Isn't this an advertisement?"
Mr. Cheng was amused by the girl's true answer.
"Hmph, anyway, I have not forgotten my original intention. Okay, now it's your turn."
Wrinkling her nose, Zhao Hongjin glanced at Cheng Daqi - she thought her childhood ideal was quite cool.
“When I was a child, I wanted to be a policeman and lock my parents up. Look, is it a gangster to say that you should never forget your original intention?”
Mr. Cheng also exposed his dark history, He even said it with a smile.
Hearing his answer, Xiao Zhao looked at Mr. Cheng with a complicated look.
"Then you are really filial, but are these things too far away? What are you going to say?"
"You ask, 'Isn't that betraying oneself?', my idea is that people always grow in the process of betraying themselves.
Back to Marx and Engels' logic, movement is absolute (Not a movement in physics), so I try my best to betray myself every day.
This betrayal not only does not make me feel lost, but also makes me grow continuously."
< br>You are right, but don’t say it yet!
Zhao Hongjin knew that Cheng Daqi was right, but she still felt filled with panic.
Brother, let me ask, have you betrayed yourself?
Answer me, you work hard to betray me every day, and you are proud to betray me.
I know you are absolutely right, but I still feel very uncomfortable.
Did you take advantage of me?
Seeing that Zhao Hongjin was silent, Mr. Cheng brought the topic back to the behavior of Mr. Lieutenant Colonel.
"As for the behavior of Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, it is actually not important. His life has no reference. What I want you to understand more is Charlie's dilemma.
I want you to see a man full of principles. How a kind soul is persecuted and squeezed by abnormal rules.
There is a very important logic here. The rules in society have nothing to do with the so-called principles of justice.
After watching the movie, you should be able to understand that without the Lieutenant Colonel's step forward."
"No! You were just bullying me. I don't understand. In the philosophical sense, sports lack objective reference points. Truth only depends on whether the person looking at it believes in the philosophical system it explains.
The basic logic of what you said is wrong, it's too bullying! ”
It’s not that Xiao Zhao didn’t say anything, she was so angry that she gave an answer. She was still thinking about the previous paragraph.
Finally, she thought of the key to the problem.
< br>After being interrupted by Zhao Hongjin mid-sentence, Mr. Cheng was not unhappy, but he raised his glass happily.
“A Zhao, congratulations, you have begun to disenchant yourself with the world you know! ”
While Zhao Hongjin was stunned, Mr. Cheng's cup collided with the cup she was holding.
‘Ding! '
Disenchantment: The word "disenchantment" comes from what Max Weber called "the disenchantment of the world." Generally speaking, "disenchantment" refers to the mystery and sacredness of science and knowledge. The dissolution of sex and charm, by extension, can also refer to the subject’s doubts or confirmation of signifiers regarding sublimity, model, elegance, grand narrative, and meta-discourse in terms of cultural attitudes.
I recommend everyone to watch Scent of a Woman, a very interesting movie.
Brothers, this chapter is not about the word count, but the portrayal of the protagonist’s soul. It really made me sweat while writing it.
My protagonist is not that thin, he is wonderful.
I just try my best to show his soul.
