Chapter 546: Punch Lines
Zhang Chengyuan said frankly: "I am more concerned, China is a great country, as far as the economic field that I am familiar with is concerned, after the reform and opening up of this country, in less than 30 years, the economy has developed to the current level, which is very admirable, and I have learned a lot of good experience from some successful businessmen in China." ”
Jin Jingcheng nodded, and then asked: "Since you know "Ordinary World", you must have read a lot of books from China?"
Zhang Chengyuan said: "I have read a lot, but they are usually commercial works or some ancient Chinese classics, and there are very few novels, and "Ordinary World" can be said to be an exception, because this novel is really good, it can give people enlightenment in many aspects, and let people understand the ordinariness of this world." ”
Jin Jingcheng nodded again, realizing that Zhang Chengyuan must have a deeper understanding and feeling of the word "ordinary".
Jin Jingcheng also seems to vaguely understand why Zhang Chengyuan's usual dress looks mediocre.
This is a manifestation of a successful person who has reached a certain level.
Here you can find out the threefold realm again, the first one, someone is really mediocre, the second, someone is noble, and the third, after someone is noble to a certain realm, they return to mediocrity, but the mediocrity at this time is obviously extraordinary.
This third realm is somewhat similar to the transformation of the Chinese Taoist in the long distance of cultivating the truth, which means that people who have cultivated to a sufficient height often need to turn into ordinary people and return to the ordinary, but at this time, his state of mind is undoubtedly much higher than that of those who are truly ordinary.
Jin Jingcheng believes that even if Zhang Chengyuan can't reach the third realm, it's almost the same.
At this time, Zhang Chengyuan said in a regretful tone: "It's a pity that the Chinese books I read are all translated versions. It would be nice if I could be proficient in Chinese and read the original version, but without that talent, Chinese is too difficult to learn. ”
Jin Jingcheng said with a smile: "It is estimated that Uncle Zhang just doesn't have so much time and energy to learn Chinese, otherwise you will definitely be able to learn well." ”
This is not flattery, but it is true.
Zhang Chengyuan was no longer modest, and said with a smile: "Yes." I'm too busy at work, really too busy, let alone learning Chinese, sometimes so busy that I don't even have time to accompany your Aunt Wu. ”
Jin Jingcheng said with a smile: "If a person is too busy, then it is really painful, busy is a good medicine for many neuropathies, a lot of meaningless things, when you are busy, you will not think about it and will not do it." ”
Zhang Chengyuan stared at Jin Jingcheng and said, "Although I haven't known you for a long time. But I always feel that there is a quality in you as a young man that is difficult for other young people to get. ”
Jin Jingcheng asked, "What quality?"
Zhang Chengyuan said: "I have hardly seen you irritable, especially when facing career problems. ”
Jin Jingcheng said calmly: "Actually, there are, but once I have this kind of emotion, I will find a way to release it." ”
"And I think a lot of times, when I make myself better, the problems that bother me are solved," he added. So. I don't like to focus my emotions on things that are useless and can't be solved for a while, and focus my mind on how to make myself better. Take a long-term view, and when I become stronger, everything will naturally change. ”
Zhang Chengyuan couldn't help but give Jin Jingcheng a thumbs up: "You are really special and powerful." ”
After drinking a glass of soju with Jin Jingcheng and taking another puff of a cigar, Zhang Chengyuan immediately said, "But." I hope you'd better not forget that you're only in your twenties, and you're still so young, you should enjoy this youth more. ”
Jin Jingcheng nodded: "I will." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "Especially the woman. ”
"Woman?" Sun Danfei's heart trembled, originally the conversation between the two men. made her a little confused, and now she suddenly heard Zhang Chengyuan say "this part of the woman", her eyes widened, stared at Jin Jingcheng, and paid special attention.
Jin Jingcheng didn't know how to respond for a while, because he didn't expect Zhang Chengyuan to suddenly say this.
Zhang Chengyuan continued to smile and said: "A very successful young man like you, while he is still young, can occasionally go crazy. ”
Jin Jingcheng smiled and asked, "Uncle Zhang, were you crazy when you were young?"
Zhang Chengyuan said calmly: "Of course I was crazy, and I was crazy for a while, during that time, I was obviously engaged to your Aunt Wu, but I was still entangled with a woman outside, but fortunately, your Aunt Wu forgave me." ”
"Ah?!" Sun Danfei's heart trembled again, and she glanced at Zhang Chengyuan in surprise, she didn't expect a man like Zhang Chengyuan to have such an indulgent youth.
Jin Jingcheng didn't expect it, so he was also a little surprised.
Sun Danfei didn't know what she thought in her heart, and her face was flushed with some strange ruddy, but fortunately, Jin Jingcheng and Zhang Chengyuan were talking heartily, and they didn't find her little weirdness.
Zhang Chengyuan asked Jin Jingcheng with a smile: "What's the matter?
Jin Jingcheng shook his head: "No, I just feel a little strange." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "It's nothing unusual, this kind of thing is normal in this era, don't treat me as a traditional conservative person, I'm not Dongyou's uncle." ”
Jin Jingcheng asked suspiciously, "Brother Dongyou's eldest uncle?"
Zhang Chengyuan nodded, but didn't introduce much, and said again: "Of course, while you are young and very capable, you can go crazy occasionally, but only occasionally, remember to have self-control, because once you can't control it, even if you have climbed to a relatively high place, it will be easy to fall." ”
Zhang Chengyuan sighed and said: "When I was young, although I also made some achievements, and occasionally went crazy, I still wasted a lot of time, and now every time I look back, I always feel as if I haven't taken youth seriously." ”
Jin Jingcheng smiled: "There is a writer named Sanmao in China, who once said: I don't have time to be seriously young, and when I understand it, I can only choose to age seriously." I think this sentence is perfect for describing you, Uncle Zhang. ”
Zhang Chengyuan paused, recalled this sentence, and then said: "Thank you, a very good sentence, I like it very much." ”
Jin Jingcheng smiled again and said: "As for me, I'm afraid you will be more greedy than Uncle Zhang, because I want to be seriously young, and when I wait for twenty or even thirty years, I also hope to be seriously old." ”
Zhang Chengyuan nodded: "Very good, this kind of greed is not only not bad, but also very good." ”
Jin Jingcheng thought of something, and said with a smile: "A few days ago, when I had dinner with Brother Dongyou and Brother Yingye, Brother Dongyou suddenly sighed that he was about to get old, and I asked him why he said that, and he said that it was because once a man got married, he was about to get old. ”
When Zhang Chengyuan heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "When did this kid become sentimental? But don't say it, there is really some truth in what he said." ”
Zhang Chengyuan took the opportunity to say: "By the way, the wedding date of Dongyou and Shilin has been confirmed. (To be continued.) )
