Chapter 136

"Hoo..."

The fat man took a beautiful breath of smoke. After a few seconds, he opened his mouth and spit out the smoke: "people now... Are different from before. They are lazy. If they can be lazy, they will be lazy. If they can play their mind, they will play their mind. Only when they can't hide, they will behave and be diligent..."

"You're right." Liu Yang nodded: "the atmosphere is really bad now, but I believe it will be better in the future."

"Later?" The fat man chuckled: "you're not an immortal. You don't know how to plan. How can you see things in the future?"

"I..."

"Maybe it will be worse in the future? After all, people's hearts... It's easy to get bad, but it's difficult to get better. Anyway, I can't get better. I'll just muddle along in my life. Every day is a day. As for the future... I don't care what I like." At this point, the fat man played the soot.

"It's a little selfish of you to think so." Liu Yang said.

"It's not that I'm selfish, but that the society forces me to be selfish. These days, in this environment, it's difficult to be selfish. Everyone wants to be a good man, but is it good to be a good man? On the contrary, those bad people live happily."

"Indeed." Liu Yang nodded: "I don't know how to do it. It's not good to be a good man, but good to be a bad man. This is really a big problem."

"Brother, if we can meet today, it shows that we are destined, and I chat with you quite well." The fat man reached out and patted Liu Yang on the shoulder: "I'll tell you more today. People now... Especially people like us are lazy and playing tricks. They only care about their own interests, regardless of the life or death of others."

Liu Yang listened quietly without speaking.

"You think, everyone around you is lazy, but you're not lazy. Does it seem very special? What will others think of you? Praise you for your principles face to face and say you're a fool behind your back."

The fat man took a cigarette and continued: "people who make special people can't get along with others. They will be excluded. Unless you have a particularly strong background, ah... You can only be squeezed out in the end. Maybe it will cause big trouble."

"That makes sense." Liu Yang nodded: "if the general environment does not change, the problem of people's selfishness cannot be changed."

"Then I ask you, why can't the environment change?" The fat man asked with a smile.

"This..." Liu Yang frowned and didn't know how to answer.

"In fact, you know it in your heart, I also know it in my heart, and others probably know what's going on, but... We can only pretend to be stupid and don't know. Only by pretending to be stupid and filling Leng can we keep our seat and live long." The fat man spoke more and more vigorously, and some words obviously violated taboos.

"Yes, now a considerable number of people are pretending to be stupid." Liu Yang sighed: "now... I can't say."

"It has become like this. It's like cancer. It can't be cured. Delaying one day is one day." Fat people are very pessimistic, or do they see through the essence of this society?

Liu Yang shook his head: "even for cancer... Sometimes with good luck, there is hope of cure, but... Forget it, let's talk about the meeting."

Some words don't need to be said too clearly. Just be clear in your heart. It's meaningless to say too clearly.

Besides, when Liu Yang met fat man for the first time, he didn't know who fat man was, so he should pay attention to his words and can't say everything.

"The meeting is just a formality. It's no big deal. To put it bluntly, we're here to support it. We'll sit in the conference room. Hey, it looks really grand. The camera will shoot it again, then clip it to the video and release it. It's a good news."

The fat man said a lot about the meeting. Liu Yang listened carefully and asked if he didn't understand.

Liu Yang can see that the fat man in front of him is a very extreme person. He always thinks about the bad side of things and seldom thinks about the good side. Moreover, Liu Yang also found that the fat man is very pessimistic, doesn't hold any hope for the future, and doesn't know what he has experienced in recent years, so he is so pessimistic.

Almost nine o'clock, people arrived one after another.

It was not until 9:30 that the big people who presided over the meeting came slowly. The reason given was that there was a traffic jam on the road, so they came late.

Liu Yang shook his head and was really said by the fat man. These big people were sleepy one by one. Two of them had eye droppings. They just woke up. They knew that they had a meeting today and deliberately got up so late. Their sense of responsibility was not generally bad.

At the beginning of the meeting, Liu Yang was still very focused, but after a while, Liu Yang was a little tired.

What is this all about?

It's all fucking empty talk, cliche and bullshit. There's nothing useful at all.

Go to one that looks like that. Say a word and take a look at the speech. It seems that you can't speak without the speech?

After listening for a long time, Liu Yang was also confused. He didn't understand what was going on. No wonder the fat man said he was coming through the motions. It was a waste of time, energy and money.

It costs a lot to hold such a meeting. As for who pays... There is no need to discuss this issue.

Several times, Liu Yang almost couldn't help but want to say something, but finally thought of Zhang Guiming's advice and swallowed his words.

Forget it, don't say it. My words are mild and useless. No one cares at all.

Liu Yang glanced around and saw the fat man sitting in the last row, with a pen in his hand, writing and drawing in his notebook. He looked very serious, but from the perspective of Liu Yang, you can see that the fat man painted a turtle

Yes, I painted turtles, and I painted several.

Liu Yang couldn't help laughing. The fat man was interesting. He was talking. He painted turtles below, and pretended to take notes very seriously. Aren't you afraid of the above people's whim to suddenly check their notes?

After holding on for an hour and a half, the meeting was finally over.

Liu Yang immediately got up and walked outside. He didn't want to stay here for a moment.

The fat man quickly came over and said, "how do you feel?"

Liu Yang shook his head: "it's boring."

"You get used to it when you come here a few more times." The fat man smiled and said, "are you busy now? If you're OK, let's find a place to have a good chat?"

"OK." Liu Yang nodded: "you find a place. It's my first time to the capital. I'm not familiar with it."

……

In half an hour.

They sat in a teahouse.

They ordered a pot of tea and some melon seeds and peanuts, and then they chatted while eating and drinking.

At this time, Liu Yang learned that the fat man's name was Wu Desheng, a native of Beijing. He was 40 years old this year. He divorced the year before last, and the child went abroad with his wife. That is to say, Wu Desheng lives alone now.

Liu Yang finally knew why Wu Desheng was so extreme and pessimistic. It turned out that he was stimulated. His wife took his children abroad to settle down and left him alone in China. Because of his work, he can't go abroad and can't see his children. Can't he feel bad?
