February 5, 2005.

Chen Weidong and Chen Jie finally returned to their hometown of Qianzhou after a long absence.

Before, they were always traveling abroad, and then they were busy with the complicated affairs of the company. Apart from calling to greet them from time to time, they only had a handful of time to spend time with their families.

After not returning to my hometown for two years, Chenjiacun has changed a lot.

More than ten kilometers of asphalt road have been built directly to the door of the house. Looking around, the whole village is full of brand-new small single-family houses, and there is no trace of the poor rural style of the past.

In addition to the large-scale development and construction across the country, Chenjiacun was fortunate enough to be included in the development zone due to its geographical location along the river.

Several surrounding mountains were demolished and leveled by the engineering team.

This was not enough. After a certain amount of compensation was given, a considerable part of the farmland was expropriated, and various large bulldozers and road rollers were rumbled into the distance every day.

These leveled lands will be used to build factories.

Among them, there are some foreign-funded enterprises that choose to take root here because of preferential policies. However, they are basically labor-intensive industries with little technological content.

There are even some polluting enterprises that were eliminated in the Pearl River Delta and have moved here.

But during this period, most people in small cities had just been liberated from the fields.

Without farmland, most of them would choose to work in factories.

Although you have to work more than twelve hours a day, you can get a salary of eight to nine hundred, and food and accommodation are included. Overall, it is still much more cost-effective than farming or raising fish.

No one wants to live a life of nothingness.

Everyone is afraid of poverty.

It doesn’t matter whether you have technological content or not, and whether you are an environmentally friendly enterprise.

It would be nice to have work to do.

Therefore, in this golden age of foreign-funded enterprises extracting value, ordinary people appear to be particularly able to endure hardships.

In the factory, their hard-working and hard-working spirit is often publicly praised by some business managers.

If you chew your old age, you will be scorned by society.

Not only the experts and scholars on TV will criticize you with an attitude of "Why are there such lazy young people? They are simply social parasites!", but also the people in the village, whoever does not go out to work will be treated as after-dinner food.

joke.

Seriously, it will be on the news.

Mediators from some rural TV stations will come to you every minute to find out whether there are any social problems behind this that make you unwilling to go to work.

After all, the economy is developing so fast now, anyone with hands and feet can find a job, and there is no problem with basic food and clothing. There is no such thing as being unable to find a job.

That's a problem only for college students.

Chen Weidong's home is no longer the original two-story brick building. It was demolished and rebuilt on the same site. Professional designers were hired to decorate the house, regardless of the cost of materials. It was all done by the village chief when Chen Weidong was away.

Originally, according to Chen Weidong's intention, he wanted to build a villa for Chen's father and Chen's mother, and it would be best to live together in South China City, but the old couple disagreed.

They have been living a simple life, living in a villa, living a life of fine clothing and food, and being cared for by nannies, but they can't adapt to it.

In Chen's father's words, the house only needs to be large enough to live in. It is a waste to buy such a big house. It takes a long time to find a room to sleep in at night. It is purely because of eating.

Chen's mother's answer was exactly like that of a housewife: There are too many rooms, and it takes a long time to clean them. This is not enjoyment, but suffering.

Chen Weidong and Chen Jie are now famous. Not only in China, but also in the international arena, they also have a certain influence.

As soon as their motorcade arrived at the entrance of the village, it was blocked by water. They had no choice but to get out of the car and walk. Everyone in the village who had any seniority came and swarmed in. The scene was quite lively.

They are out there all year round, they are the general manager of a large group and the richest man in China, so it is normal for them to be surrounded by onlookers.

Fortunately, Chen Jie can often be seen on TV, but Chen Weidong is too low-key and rarely appears in public.

The village chief was excited and kept asking questions, including whether he was in good health, whether he had been bullied outside, and whether things in the company were going well. Before Chen Weidong and Chen Jie could answer, he was busy asking the next question.

After all, in the eyes of their elders, Chen Weidong and others are still very young, and it is difficult to do everything...

Infinite Company is now very popular in China. Everyone knows that there is such a company that brings glory to national enterprises all over the world.

The continuous popularity of computers, mobile phones, online shopping, and express delivery has made the influence of Infinite Company penetrate deeply into the lives of ordinary people. Chen Weidong and others returned to their hometown for the New Year this time. Many relatives took out their smartphones and took pictures non-stop, preparing

Post it online to show off.

Affected by the customs of later generations, Chen Weidong did not have much feeling for his relatives, neither warm nor unfamiliar. However, Chen's father and his generation had a very good relationship and often moved around.

Every year, Chen Jie gives the village chief a huge sum of money, asking him to distribute one million in cash to each household.

It was okay at first. After many people became rich suddenly, they would still habitually grow vegetables and find something to do.

But suddenly becoming wealthy makes it difficult for many people to hold on to themselves.

After some men in the village got rich, they immediately bought cars and went to the city every day to spend a lot of money. They washed their feet and sang karaoke. It was common for them not to go home for several days and nights.

Over and over again, many honest people who were originally diligent and responsible were dragged into the water.

The whole family is in a state of chaos.

In their words: "Do you still need to work when you are rich? Hum, my relatives...my cousin...Chen Jie, you know how rich you are?"

Over the past few years, not many people worked in Chenjia Village.

Many people even bother to cook three meals a day and just eat, drink and have fun outside every day.

Especially after coming into contact with computers and smartphones, many people seem to have found the meaning of life. Illiterate people who could not read a few characters in the past have begun to learn Pinyin, how to type using the input method, and then post on the Internet to show off their wealth.

Many of them are self-taught and have learned how to shop online. They often just buy, buy, and clear their shopping carts.

So much so that the courier responsible for this area cannot fit in a tricycle and must drive a large truck.

When they returned to their hometown a few years ago, many of their relatives still wore the kind of clothes sold at roadside stalls, down jackets costing about 100 yuan. Now they all wear famous brands and luxury goods, and even imitate others in wearing watches.

But when he walks, he looks like a nouveau riche.

Working as a farmer all year round, it is difficult to get rid of your dark and rough skin in a short period of time.

Chen Jie thought that giving one million to each relative every year would be enough, but he didn't expect that the village chief said that they would squander it all in half a year.

In this era when the per capita disposable income of residents across the country is only 5,700 yuan.
