Yan Zhen has a saying that is particularly appropriate for the state of contemporary young people: I am like a hungry and thirsty person standing under the apple tree. I can pick the tempting red apple with a light jump. I don’t know what to do if I jump or not.
Facing the confrontation between survival and dignity, it is floating between reality and ideals, and I don’t know how much courage it takes to make a choice that is not right or wrong?
The author Yan Zhen’s new work "What to do" describes the protagonist Xu Jingjing, from an ordinary female student to an ordinary office worker, faces multiple choices in life such as temptation and dignity, ideals and reality, love and bread; when facing this world, no one is willing to help her, and she is unwilling to let go of her dignity.
As a young man who has just graduated, he is completely unprepared to face the uneasiness, confusion and panic of society, and does not know where his future lies.
The hope of the whole family is on me, but I don’t know where my hope lies.
Xu Jingjing is an ordinary girl in a small town. She was admitted to Normal University under her father's expectations. My father was once a private study teacher, but he was eliminated because of his insufficient education.
It is precisely for this reason that I hope Xu Jingjing will study hard. Xu Jingjing's life is to study hard and do nothing at home. She has become the hope of the whole family!
Xu Jingjing was also very successful. She did not disappoint her father and successfully got into the Normal University in Lucheng. From then on, her life has been closely linked to this city.
also met Zhang Wei in this city, the lover she thought she would be entrusted to her life for life; Zhang Wei was Xu Jingjing's senior brother, and because she joined his club, they gradually became familiar with each other's passionate love.
She thought she would be with him in the future and have her own home and lover in this city.
soon came true and gave her a slap. Zhang Wei graduated and failed to find a satisfactory job after experiencing autumn recruitment and spring recruitment. His parents found a position with a staffed position in his hometown Guyang County.
Zhang Wei wanted to convince Xu Jingjing to return to Guyang County with him, but Xu Jingjing knew that this was impossible. Even if she could accept it, her father could not accept the result. She finally came out of the town and returned to another equally remote town. Her father knew that she would definitely vomit blood.
Xu Jingjing said: My family is the most ordinary people, the kind in the town, it is too difficult to get a chance. Unlike some people, the road ahead has been paved long ago. I have to walk out every inch of the road ahead by myself.
Isn’t this the current situation of most of us ordinary people? An ordinary person like Xu Jingjing cannot find a suitable job, and has no way out to retreat, and no one can overcome all obstacles for us in the road ahead.
Zhang Ailing said: No matter how good an ordinary person’s life is, it is a peach blossom fan. He knocked his head and blood splattered on the fan, and added a little bit to it to dye it into a peach blossom.
In the choice of love and future, Xu Jingjing chose to stay in Lucheng, and Zhang Wei chose to return to Guyang County. In the face of reality, they all chose their future.
and Zhang Wei's first love ended in this way. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he knew in his heart that he was not worthy of being a woman who could let go of everything for love.
You came to the world with your own lifebuoy, where are me? I don’t have
In life, we are making choices all the time, love is gone, and life still needs to continue.
Xu Jingjing also ushered in the autumn recruitment. She thought that Zhang Wei could not find a suitable job because the requirements were too high. Only after he knew what kind of torture this was. The hundreds of resumes submitted were like stones sinking into the sea, without any news.
Big companies have no chance, and small companies don’t look down on them!
The position of an intern in a TV station program group depends on the relationship between friends to have the opportunity; no one can clear the relationship and can't be converted to a regular in the column group;
The person in charge of the column group is interested in Xu Jingjing, and the bone-lost hints that she: the growth of a woman needs the support of a noble person.
When survival and dignity face a choice, what would you choose?
Xu Jingjing refused Brother Hua's support and soon lost the identity of an intern. When she left, she saw his classmate's sister coming to report. She was more good at doing things, sweet-mouthed and adorable.
The same class Li Yiming knew that I had encountered difficulties in finding a job. He was a rich second generation. His family had a quota for him on the TV station. He liked Xu Jingjing and always wanted to pursue her. If he was willing to be his girlfriend, he would give this quota to Xu Jingjing.
may be influenced by Zhang Wei, looking for a boyfriend, hoping to be talented and have a sense of humor, be taller and handsome, the family's financial situation is still good, and whether you want to be scumbag.
Li Yiming is not the type she likes, but she wants to get a quota for that TV station.
If you accept it, then you will have a support in this life and have a stable and decent job. Your parents will feel relieved and you will be satisfied materially.
I feel too wronged in my heart!
Youth passed in an instant, and a lifetime passed in an instant.
Xu Jingjing couldn't convince herself, but she still said the same thing. She didn't want to regret her future self, and chose comfort when she should work hard.
We may have the opportunity to choose to live a stable life, but we don’t want to be so fast in our hearts. After graduation, we will face the life of food, rice, oil, salt, sauce, and coarse tea.
It's not easy for anyone, it's too difficult. No matter how difficult it is, you have to take it through. If you really can't get through, you have to struggle. Don't you struggle so well to be your future self?
knowing how to make choices can we move forward more easily
10,000 reasons to lie down, and there is only one reason to struggle, that is, to give yourself an explanation in the future. If you fail, it is also an explanation.
No one can do perfect life, nor does he have a perfect life.
Xu Jingjing's talent and appearance are not among the best. She wants to find a stable and well-organized job.
pursues perfection just like his concept of love. If you know how to make choices, it may be easier.
There is such a story in "Lüshi Chunqiu".
Someone wanted to buy the best dog in the world, so his friend chose a strong and ferocious hunting dog for him.
This person thought to himself, since this is the best dog and has spent so much money, this dog should know everything.
Recently, there were mice at home who always came out to steal food, so the man started to train hunting dogs to catch mice, but no matter how they trained the hunting dogs, they could not catch mice.
He went to ask the dog master a lesson.
Master saw the hunting dog and said to him: "This is indeed a rare good dog, but his prey should be wild boars, hares, elk and other beasts, not mice. If he had to catch a mouse, tie his hind legs."
When he heard the master's words, he tied the hind legs of the hunting dog. Over time, the hunting dog learned to catch mice. But he was no longer the hunting dog that could catch wild animals before, and became a crappy cat!
Xu Jingjing first thought about taking the civil service exam, and then continued to study for graduate school. In the end, she chose an educational institution to be a teacher. The school was forced to go bankrupt and go to sell houses.
Although in the end, she saw some hope in the sales company through hard work and won the title of company sales champion. Because of her sincere and responsible for the company, she was appreciated by the company's senior leaders.
Yan Zhen said: As long as you work hard enough and focus on a field for a long time, your connections, your knowledge and abilities will slowly accumulate. Don’t say that you will excel in the end, but at least you will be better than those who have not been in this field for a long time.
We are not all-rounders, we can only choose a direction that we are interested in and work hard. When faced with choices, we always have to make choices.
at the end

'What to do' new book launch conference Yan Zhen said that the book was touched by his son.
His son is a graduate student, working in an online game company, working 290 hours a month, ten hours a day;
The boss also talked to him: Why do others have more than 300 hours, but you only work 290 hours?
Xu Jingjing is not an isolated example among us, it may be a true portrayal of your and my life.
The essence of our life is the world. If we go around in circles, we can't escape the world.
an ordinary life in the secular world. Only by not surrendering to the secular world and transcending the secular world can you see a brand new self.
