Chapter 690 People cannot earn money beyond their knowledge
"Where have you been?"
Martial arts school, in a dormitory.
Qin Feng and Zhao Pengfei were washing their feet.
Seeing Li Jiasheng and Qi Meng coming back from outside cursing, he asked curiously.
Qi Meng plopped down on the stool, his ears fuming with anger: "We just went to talk to the gang leader!"
Qin Feng knew that he was talking about those energetic young men who took the lead in live streaming in the martial arts school, and after making a little money, led the whole school to dream of getting rich.
According to Wang Baoguo, the students originally practiced very hard, starting at five in the morning and finishing at around eight in the evening.
Everyone was very methodical, just like the singing, reciting, acting and fighting in Peking Opera, and they were diligently honing their basic skills.
But ever since a few junior students made some money by waving their hands and making short videos, the atmosphere of the whole school has changed.
Previously, the school used Qi Meng's story of joining the army and making meritorious contributions to publicize the story, calling on young people to actively sign up to join the army.
But now, under the instigation of those "Internet celebrity" students, everyone feels that joining the army has no future, and working as a slave for others is even more impossible.
As a result, all the students from top to bottom began to slack off, practicing their exercises carelessly and not taking their academic studies seriously.
Every day they just study how to wave their hands and how to shoot short videos. They all want to emulate those who reaped the benefits at the beginning and dream of becoming internet celebrities who earn millions a year.
Seeing such a good martial arts school turned into a mess, Qi Meng, the senior brother, was so angry that he went to find the leaders and hoped that they could be more restrained.
As a result, the two sides had a disagreement and almost started fighting. Fortunately, Li Jiasheng quickly pulled the two people back and persuaded them to come back.
"Brother Feng, don't you think these people are infuriating?"
"Not only do they want to become internet celebrities, but they also want to incite others to do the same?"
"They said nothing could be better than learning to wave the flower hand, and they mocked me for being a soldier to earn so little money, saying nothing could make money faster than being an internet celebrity!"
"Really? If Li Jiasheng hadn't stopped me, I would have gone up to him and picked him up and done it..."
Qin Feng took his feet out of the basin, wiped them casually, and did not express any opinion.
Zhao Pengfei didn't want to say too much about this and also chose to remain silent.
This made Qi Meng very anxious, and he scratched his head as if he had thorns on his body.
"Li Jiasheng, do you think they're going too far?"
"Do you want to hear the truth?"
Li Jiasheng thought about it and felt that he still had to persuade him.
"you say!"
"I think there's no need for you to meddle in other people's business. I believe Brother Feng and Lao Zhao also mean the same thing."
"But they're setting a bad example. No one's practicing properly, and they're just dreaming of being an internet celebrity all the time. Most importantly, those guys are saying there's no future in military service and how much money you can earn. Is that really about money?"
At this time, Qin Feng spoke up: "It's normal for young people of this age to be ambitious and vain, wanting to become internet celebrities and make a lot of money. Everyone goes through a period of expansion and unrealistic expectations."
"Do you remember when you first joined the army, you said you wanted to arm wrestle with the veterans, but the old squad leader beat you so hard you were kneeling on the ground and couldn't get up?"
"Not wanting to serve in the military is a personal choice. You can't impose your personal wishes on others. It's like, I like salty tofu pudding, but I can't expect everyone to have the same standards as me."
"Brother Feng, I understand what you said, but, but..." Qi Meng was a little anxious: "But if we don't care about anything and do nothing, won't that harm them?"
"From the first day I entered the martial arts school, my teacher told me that I should be down-to-earth and take one step at a time..."
"If there's a shortcut, who wouldn't want to take it?" Zhao Pengfei interrupted him. "That's their personal choice. We may not understand it, but we have to respect it. The word 'Internet celebrity' is like a dream. Once you wake up, it's all over."
Qin Feng and the other two had highly consistent attitudes towards this matter.
Those who are able to sign up for the army and are willing to serve the motherland tend to be more mature in thinking and more responsible than other people of the same age.
But not everyone has this kind of awareness. It is a scarce resource in society, so it cannot be forced.
"Okay, take a shower and go to bed early."
Qin Feng said, "Tomorrow morning, we'll go to your house to check on you. In the evening, we'll have to take a bus to the old squad leader's house to check on him."
Although Qi Meng was unhappy, he could only accept it slowly.
Qin Feng knew that he was impatient and couldn't hide things.
The reason why I am so anxious and angry is that I don’t want these inexperienced students to immerse themselves in unrealistic fantasies every day.
In the end, not only did I not learn the skills well, but I also wasted my precious time. It was really not worth it.
But many times, we have to learn to respect the fate of others. Too much interference will make people hate you and feel that you are blocking their financial path.
......
Late at night, in a small city in Guangdong and Guangxi.
Liu Qiang, a worker who works three days a week and rests two days a week, has been online for more than two days in a row.
At this moment, he walked out of the Internet cafe called Yi Wang Qing Shen with a hungry stomach, found a night snack stall and ordered a bowl of fried rice for five yuan.
Originally, he wanted to add a sausage, but he was really short of money, so he could only order the lowest configuration.
While waiting, Liu Qiang habitually took out his mobile phone and started watching short videos to kill time.
The first piece of news after clicking on it was about a certain sea area in my country being invaded and illegally fished by fishing boats from a neighboring country.
In the video, our coast guard ship is using a high-pressure water cannon to forcibly drive away the fishing boat involved. The surveillance footage is very gratifying to watch.
There was a lot of cheers in the comment section, and many young people who were preparing to sign up for the army left comments hoping to receive everyone's blessings.
【Come on, soldier brother! 】
【I really want to find a soldier to date! 】
[Let's work hard together. I've also signed up to join the army. We will all be PLA soldiers in the future!]
Looking at the comments below, worker Liu Qiang put down the spoon in his hand and left the word "envy".
He is already in his thirties this year, and he is in a daze, has accomplished nothing, has no house, no car, no savings, and no wife.
Because of frequent smoking and staying up late to surf the Internet, his health was in a mess. He even felt that he might die suddenly at any time.
But when you think back to when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, wasn't he a passionate young man who was full of vigor and enthusiasm and was willing to pee in the wind?
If he could go back to being seventeen or eighteen years old, he would definitely choose to join the army without hesitation.
In this way, at least your life will not be muddled, and you will not be like a scum of society, despised wherever you go, and can only find a sense of existence through the keyboard on the Internet.
Ever since he accidentally read the news about a soldier fighting a fire a few years ago, he has developed envy and admiration for the identity of a soldier.
Being a soldier is an identity, but also a glorious and great profession that is loved and admired by everyone.
Moreover, the welfare benefits for retired soldiers are particularly good, and they are respected wherever they go.
At the Internet cafe where he surfs the Internet, retired soldiers can enjoy huge discounts for recharging their accounts, which is really cool.
A few days ago, he even saw a few soldiers who were out on business eating in a restaurant. The boss refused to take their money and gave them very large portions of food.
In contrast, Liu Qiang looked at the empty fried rice on his plate and couldn't help but sigh.
He swiped his fingers quickly on his phone and suddenly saw a live video broadcast of a lively young man. There were quite a lot of people in the live broadcast room.
"What's the future of being a soldier? How much money can you make in a month? After graduating from martial arts school, I went to Hengdian to work as a martial artist, a stunt double, and worked like a slave in a factory. There's no way I'd become a soldier."
"What's the point of not saying anything nonsense? I just said something nonsense. Anyway, I really look down on him. If I were a woman, I wouldn't want to date a soldier. Without even a will-o'-the-wisp, what future can he have?"
"What does this date you're writing mean? What day is it today? I don't understand. I haven't been educated much. What does this victory you're talking about have to do with me?"
"I'm a straightforward person. You're a bit of a social jerk. Being blunt and outspoken is my style... You guys are all just talking nonsense, saying things like you can't say this or that. If you have the guts, come to xx Martial Arts School and confront me head-on. Do you dare?"
"Fuck, buddy, I'm not bragging, I'm just waving my hand here, I can make as much in a month as you would in half a year working! Yeah, it's that awesome!"
"You don't believe me, right? You're acting like I'm lying to you. Come on, let me show you my income. Hundreds and hundreds of millions... See it, troll?"
"Even if I don't do any work today, I can still make thousands of dollars a day just by relying on the short videos I shot before. You can't envy me..."
Liu Qiang saw this bastard waving his hands, he could actually earn so much money in a month, he didn't even know that today was the Victory Day of the Anti-Japanese War, and he was still complaining about the bad things about being a soldier.
Then the anger in his heart suddenly rose up.
First they started to criticize, then they took screenshots of the live broadcast and clicked on reports frantically.
In less than five minutes, this guy's live broadcast room was blocked for transmitting inappropriate content.
Soon after, the short video backend reviewers also received various reports and directly banned the so-called internet celebrity permanently from all platforms.
The next day, when Qin Feng and his companions were leaving, Wang Baoguo told them about this matter.
Qi Meng exclaimed that it was very gratifying, while Qin Feng did not show much surprise.
People cannot earn money beyond their cognition.
Even if you catch the trend and make some quick money.
In the end, you will definitely lose all the money because you can't control it.
For students in martial arts schools, becoming an internet celebrity is like a dream that suddenly appears in their lives; it comes and goes quickly.
......
In the evening, Qin Feng and others left Qi Meng's hometown and boarded the train to Henan Province, preparing to pay a final visit to Zhao Pengfei's home.
Originally, everyone wanted to catch up on some sleep in the car, but just as they closed their eyes, they were woken up by a heated argument in the aisle ahead...
