The Rebirth of the Internet Celebrity Godfather

February 5th, the ninth day of the lunar month.

After handling matters at home, Cheng Yi boarded the plane from Jinan Yaoqiang Airport and boarded a flight to Jinzhou Airport in western Sichuan. The journey took two to three hours, and the landing time was 3:10 p.m.

Before getting on the plane, Cheng Yi uploaded the video "Talk about the Dilemma of Ordinary People" he had produced in the past two days to station x. After passing the review, he first forwarded the video to major fan groups, and then to the junior high school class group:

"Students, the video has been produced. If you have time, you can take a look."

After sending the message, he boarded the plane.

Zhang Xinghou also saw the news in the group. He immediately opened the x site, searched for the video of the same name, and clicked to watch it.

As soon as I entered, I saw that someone had already posted a message.

【First】

【sofa】

[Happy New Year, brother Cheng Yi]

[Junior high school classmate, here I come, guess who I am]

[Wait, something is wrong! You are not Cheng Yi! Who are you? Give Cheng Yi back to me]

[Young x friend, are you throwing away Jin Chengyi? Or Yin Chengyi? Or is it Chengyi made of 37-degree meat? 】

"Hello everyone, my name is Cheng Yi. Some viewers may find it strange, Cheng Yi, why did you change your account?

I would like to solemnly declare here that I have not changed my account. This is my new station x account, and its name is: Cheng Yi Shuo Business Special Account.

This account mainly focuses on expressing personal opinions on social events and Internet chaos. Because the video is more serious and the content is more subjective, it is distinguished from the previous account in case some viewers don't like to watch such videos."

【I like all your videos】

[I’m different, I don’t like your videos, I only like you, my hands are shy~]

[There are gay men in the front, I will come to the back, you go first!]

[Do you think this queen is serious? 】

"In this video, let's talk about the plight of ordinary people. On February 2nd, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, I attended a junior high school class reunion. At the party, I learned that one of my junior high school classmates broke his leg while going out to work.

.

Here, let me first introduce his basic situation. He and I were classmates in junior high school.

After he graduated from junior high school, he and I were admitted to the County No. 1 Middle School. I majored in science and he majored in liberal arts. We didn’t socialize much in high school, and we didn’t keep in touch much after graduating from high school. I only heard that he was admitted to a second-level university in the province.

I thought that like most people, he would spend the most relaxing summer vacation in his life, and then carry his luggage and step into a new and unfamiliar university campus, meet new classmates, learn new knowledge, and maybe, he would also meet a beautiful woman by chance.

Girls, let’s have a sweet love.

However, I did not expect that when I heard the news about him again, it would be sad news.

After asking around, I found out what happened to him.

On the same day he graduated from high school and received his college admission notice, another news came with him: his mother was sick and had a tumor.

That strong and strong woman who took care of everything in the family suddenly fell ill overnight.

His mother was ill and needed surgery, but his father was just an ordinary bricklayer. The family had spent half their life savings to support his education. How could they come up with hundreds of thousands in surgery fees?

In the eyes of some families, hundreds of thousands are just a small amount of money. In the eyes of some families, they can get it by gritting their teeth. Even if it is difficult to sell a house or a car, they can still make it together. But in a rural family, hundreds of thousands is just a small amount of money.

The astronomical figures are a mountain that cannot be moved or gnawed down.

His mother was lying on the hospital bed and told him that she was dead and could not be cured. But my classmate did not. He gave up the opportunity to go to college and chose to work on a construction site. He earned 150 a day and 4500 for a month.

Yuan, 54,000 without food or drink for a year.

Doesn't he know that 54,000 a year won't help at all? I guess he knows, but he still makes such a choice, because that is his mother, and he is trying his best to fight for even the smallest ounce.

hope.

One night, he fell from the scaffolding and broke his leg. After the contractor took him to the hospital, he disappeared.

The family, which was already in trouble, has become even worse again.

My classmate is only 19 years old. He lost all hope in life at a young and carefree age. His mother is seriously ill and he himself is lying in bed. If a miracle does not happen, I dare not think about what will happen. I can’t bear to say it.

A human tragedy.”

In the video, Cheng Yi's words were full of grief. Outside the video, Zhang Xinghou was already in tears. He temporarily paused the video and wiped away his tears before continuing to watch.

"I am not exaggerating how miserable his situation is, nor am I trying to gain sympathy from the audience, nor do I need anyone to donate money. I will help him get through this difficult time, and all proceeds from this video will be used to treat him.

and his mother."

"This video just uses his example to talk about the plight of ordinary people. At a class reunion, a classmate said, 'Some people are better than you and work harder than you.' This sentence made me extremely moved.

Uncomfortable, especially when this sentence came out of the mouth of my junior high school classmate, a small town girl from a poor family.

As for why this sentence makes me feel uncomfortable, I will elaborate later.”

"At the party, I made a questionnaire and asked four questions.

1. What do your parents do and how much money do they earn in a year?

2. What are you doing now and how much money can you make in a year?

3. What was your dream when you were a child and what is your current goal in life.

4. Do you have any talents? The kind that can perform on stage, get certificates, and get honors?"

"There are 36 people in my junior high school class, and 27 people came to the party. All 27 people filled out this questionnaire. The statistical results are as follows:

Among the 27 people, 2 have mothers who are not giving birth and one of them is sick and needs care from others day and night. 18 have mothers at home and are engaged in simple work such as farming and handicrafts. Only 4 have mothers with stable jobs and 3 have mothers.

Job instability.

10 people's fathers are engaged in construction-related industries, 6 people's fathers work in factories, 3 people's fathers do some small business, 2 people's fathers are employed or work in the government, 3 people's fathers are white collar workers, 2 people's fathers do not work, 1

The individual has no father.

According to statistics, 30% of families have an income of less than 50,000 yuan for both parents, 60% have an income of 50,000 to 100,000, 8% have an income of 100,000 to 200,000, and 4% have an income of more than 200,000.

That is, one family.

Last year, the average salary of on-the-job employees in urban units across the country was 69,000 yuan, which is 138,000 yuan for a two-income family. Among the 27 of us, only three families reached this level."

"Looking at the situation of my classmates, 5 of them are married, 3 women and 2 men; 8 are still in school, including 3 full-time undergraduates and 5 junior college students; 7 are already working, mainly engaged in technical work; 3

They are engaged in grassroots sales industry; 3 people are engaged in grassroots service industry; 1 person is a nurse; 1 person is a kindergarten teacher; 5 people are unemployed.

Among those working, the average salary is 3,300, with 3 people earning less than 2,500 and only one earning more than 10,000.

It is also far from the average salary level last year.”

"Third, what was your childhood dream and what is your current goal in life? I have seen that many people's childhood dreams were to become singers, athletes, scientists, dancers, stars, and entrepreneurs, but none of them have been realized now, no,

In other words, no one is on the road to realizing their dreams. Now, their goals have become a wife and children, a peaceful life, a car and a house, and a promotion.

Job salary increase.”

Cheng Yi put everyone's answers in the form of photos in the video.

[When I was young, my dream was to live in a big city. My current goal is to save money for a down payment on a car]

[When I was young, I wanted to be the chairman of the board and not rely on others. Now I just want to become a full-time member as soon as possible]

[I used to want to be a diplomat, but now I’m married, and I hope my family will be harmonious]

[When I was a child: I wanted to be a star and shine on the stage. Now: I don’t know]

"For the fourth question, I asked my classmates if they had any talents. Most of them were singing. One of the students filled in the question "Shouting Mai". Apart from that, there was nothing else. But can singing really be considered a talent?

?Who can’t shout loudly when going to KTV?”

"Seeing this, has anyone in the audience noticed the problem?"

"Twenty-seven people, including me, have no talent except singing. Are we all mediocre? Are we born stupid?"

"Those who want to be diplomats are now married. Those who want to be dancers have never been exposed to dance. Those who want to be athletes have not received professional training. Those who want to be celebrities are now working hard in factories. Those who want to be scientists, have not

He has received a good education and wants to be a writer, but his poor family prevents him from leaving his job and writing books."

“Why do I hate the phrase ‘good people work harder than you’?”

"There is someone who studied piano at the age of five and a half, cello at the age of six, held four concert tours at the age of thirteen, and filmed a TV series at the age of fourteen. Is she excellent? She is so excellent! But when we were five and a half years old, we didn't even see her

I’ve seen the piano, let alone learned it.”

"Some people study abroad at the age of 16, get an MBA degree at the age of 26, return to China to start a business at the age of 26, and become a creative role model for young people born in the 1980s. Is he excellent? He is too excellent, but when we are 16 years old, we graduate from junior high school and enter high school.

, No matter how good your grades are, it doesn’t matter if you have family connections, the most you can do is get admitted to the county, and we have never even been outside the province.”

"Some people appeared on TV at the age of 5, joined a certain boy group at the age of 13, made movies and sang songs at the age of 15, and won the most popular idol on a certain list at the age of 16. Is he good? He is too good, but when we are 5 years old

Some people don’t even have a TV at home, let alone having it on TV.”

"There are also people who can speak eight languages ​​and are proficient in various musical instruments. They can even publish papers and participate in various programs at a young age. What's more, they go to kindergarten in Imperial Capital, primary school in Europe, and middle school in America.

, I studied in high school in Australia, became a foreigner in college, and came back to study as a foreign student in Qingbei.”

"Are they good or not? They are so good! They beat us with their resumes. We joined the same company as them at the same time. Two resumes were placed in front of the interviewer. Who do you think the interviewer will choose? It must be them."

"So, no matter how much help their families give them or how lucky they are, their excellence is a fact. It is true. No matter how much they don't want to admit it, I admit it. No matter how reluctant I am, I still applaud them."

"So what's wrong with the saying 'some people are better and work harder than you'?"

"The mistake lies in the context in which it is used. Who is this sentence used on? Most of them are celebrities, some entrepreneurs, and a few are genius children."

"Their families are wealthy and have resources beyond the reach of ordinary people. Their parents have enough financial resources to cultivate their excellence, and have enough vision to teach them in accordance with their aptitude and help them choose a track. Their starting line is beyond the expectations of most people.

The finish line, but it is not enough for them to have the upper hand. They also need to market their "excellent and hard-working" characters, wrap themselves in a layer of golden clothing, live in a shrine, and let us ordinary people offer incense and worship them.

!

And they were riding high on our heads, laughing at our responsibilities as we struggled to survive, and saying, 'Come and lick us!'"

"The saddest thing is that some people, some who have exhausted all their strength just to be alive, really believe in their marketing, believe in their excellence and hard work, wag their tails, and become their believers!"

"How sad!"

In the video, Cheng Yi's eyes were already red.

Zhang Xinghou seemed to see a spark splashing out of Cheng Yi's eyes, passing through the screen and landing on him. Suddenly he felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, and a cavity of flames rose up in his chest, and the spray became more and more intense.

!

It was endless anger, and at this moment, it seemed as if it was going to burn to the sky.
