Chu Tianfeng held a large paper basket and walked out of the World Trade Center with a dull look on his face. His mind was confused and full of mush.
"I'm sorry, because of the financial crisis, the company's performance has declined sharply, and in order to tide over the difficulties, we have to lay off employees..."
"Unfortunately, Chu Tianfeng, you are the first! I also feel very sorry. I hope you can cheer up. Young man, there is still a long way to go in the future!"
"You only worked for twenty days this month, but we paid you a full month's salary. It can be regarded as a little compensation from the company to the resigned employees. Shouldn't you thank the company leaders?"
What the HR manager said after he was "fired" kept echoing in Chu Tianfeng's mind. It was so ridiculous! Do you still need me to thank you for firing him? Just because of the extra ten days' salary?
He looked down at the large paper basket in his arms, which contained some office supplies. The top was an envelope containing his salary for this month - a measly one thousand yuan. A bowl of noodles here costs ten yuan.
, in a prosperous metropolis where housing prices outside the Fifth Ring Road are as high as 10,000 to 20,000 per square meter, what can you do with this little money?
Chu Tianfeng ate the cheapest food, lived in a shared basement with the worst conditions, and had to budget carefully every month. He often couldn't make ends meet. If he met a colleague who was getting married or having a treat, he would have to borrow money to survive!
In the company, he also earns the least money and does the most work, and is often looked down upon by his colleagues and leaders because he has a low education level and has not even graduated from high school.
In this era where college students are everywhere and they can't find a job after graduation, he, a high school student who has only completed a high school degree with low academic qualifications and no extraordinary abilities, naturally became the first person to be laid off in the company.
People.
It was already dark, and a drizzle began to fall in the sky. Under the glare of the neon lights, it was like rows of thin silver lines falling on the head and face. It was wet and cool, just in line with the Chutian.
The current mood of the wind.
The rain seemed to be against him, getting heavier and heavier.
Chu Tianfeng was wet, and his emotions became excited. He threw the wastebasket to the ground, looked up at the night sky, and remembered the rebirth plot that he only read in novels in the past. He couldn't help shouting: "God, give me a
Is the chance of rebirth good? I will definitely study hard and use knowledge to change my destiny! Ah! Ah!"
With a click, a huge lightning suddenly struck in the sky...
**********
"Students, don't be nervous. I will announce the rankings and results of this midterm exam..."
Every time this time comes, the whole class is the most nervous, worrying about their own grades.
The head teacher, Zhao Kaishun, is a short, fat man in his thirties. He has small eyes with twinkling eyes. He is not short-sighted but wears large glasses. He holds the report card of this midterm exam in his hand.
"First place, Lin Yajing! Chinese 129, Mathematics 120, English 132, Politics 127, History 122, total score 630 points! This result is not only the first place in our class in the mid-term exam, but also the first place in the entire sophomore year of high school
!”
Zhao Kaishun clenched his fists excitedly and stared approvingly at a girl sitting in the third row of the classroom who was quiet, well-behaved and too beautiful to look directly at.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of whispers under the podium.
"Oh, Lin Yajing's score this time has improved by a full twenty points compared to the last monthly exam! She has improved every time she takes the exam, and she has ranked first in the school year for one consecutive year!"
"Tsk, tsk, I really envy her! If she keeps her grades like this, it won't be a problem to get admitted to Yenching University in the future!"
"Yes, Lin Yajing is so beautiful and good at studying. She is recognized as the school beauty of our city's No. 1 Middle School!"
"Haha, as long as she is here, no one will be able to win first place in the future! However, the fact that our sophomore class, Class 2, is able to produce such a red flower with both good character and academic performance is also due to us green leaves!"
Zhao Kaishun smiled slightly, and there was a lot of discussion in the class, but he did not stop it. In his opinion, good students should get these praises if they achieve good results.
When Lin Yajing heard those praises, her innocent and pretty face turned red, and a sweet smile appeared at the corner of her beautiful mouth.
Compared with the excitement of other students who got good grades, her reaction seemed very calm. It seemed that she had expected to achieve such excellent results.
"Chu Tianfeng! Oh, my brother Tian, wake up! Teacher Zhao has announced the midterm exam results!"
Ever since Zhao Kaishun entered the classroom, Gao Dali, who was sitting in the last row, had repeatedly tried to wake up the sleeping Chu Tianfeng.
This guy was in a comatose state from the morning until the second class in the afternoon. For lunch, he still bought bread and ham sausages bought by Gao Dali. Chu Tianfeng took a few bites in a daze, then fell asleep on the table again.
"Damn, I really admire you, 'Jue Huang'!" Gao Dali secretly glanced at the class teacher Zhao Kaishun, felt an invisible pressure, and quickly continued to push Chu Tianfeng hard.
In order to wake up Chu Tianfeng, he racked his brains, and suddenly he lay down next to Chu Tianfeng's ear and shouted: "Brother Tian, are you still sleeping? School is over!"
"Ah! Really?" Gao Dali's move really worked. Chu Tianfeng stood up from the desk and looked around sleepily.
Suddenly, his body trembled as if there was an electric shock!
Chu Tianfeng's head shook back and forth like a rattle, and he looked at the surrounding environment - he was sitting in a brand-new classroom, with a five-star red flag on the top of the wall, and below it was the school motto of the No. 1 Middle School: "Cultivate virtue and brighten your ambition, be knowledgeable."
Do it diligently.”
Look at the little fat man standing on the podium again. Isn't he Zhao Kaishun, the high school teacher? That tough teacher has a strict teaching style, speaks like a barrage of words, and often makes students cry. The students call him "Zhao Dapao" behind their backs.
Chu Tianfeng lowered his head and looked at the clothes he was wearing. He was wearing a blue and white No. 1 Middle School uniform, with a white shirt bought at a street stall for ten yuan, a pair of rubber shoes on his feet, and a canvas schoolbag in the desk compartment. He was clearly a
High school student dress.
He turned around and looked at Gao Dali next to him. He was tall, thick-skinned and thick-skinned. He was indeed worthy of his name. He was tall and strong. This was his best friend in high school!
Evil! Is he really reborn?
Chu Tianfeng was stunned, recalling that he was laid off from the company after the financial crisis spread to China in 2008, and then ran to the street to vent his dissatisfaction, saying that he wanted God to give him a chance to be reborn.
Is it really here?
Is this a dream? By the way, can you verify it? If it is a dream, your body will not feel any pain.
Chu Tianfeng's hand quietly moved under the desk and pinched his thigh hard. Oh no! It didn't hurt at all. It must have been a dream! Oh, what a waste of happiness!
At this moment, Gao Dali, the classmate at the table, screamed: "Damn, Brother Tian, why are you pinching my thigh? It hurts me so much, oh my god!"
Chu Tianfeng was stunned for a moment, and almost laughed. He could only imagine that his claws had pinched Gao Dali. This was not a dream, it was reality! He was really reborn!
"Gao Dali, what are you calling for?" Zhao Kaishun, the head teacher on the podium, couldn't bear it and shouted sternly.
Gao Dali's "wolf cry" almost attracted the attention of the whole class. Some girls even laughed when they saw his funny look.
Lin Yajing also quietly glanced back with a soft look, but what she saw was not Gao Dali, but Chu Tianfeng who looked like he was sleeping.
"Teacher Zhao, it's okay! We were just having fun!" Gao Dali stood up with a playful smile, nodding and bowing towards Zhao Kaishun.
"You two had better be honest with me!" Zhao Kaishun wanted to continue to read the midterm exam results, so he had to put this aside for now and prepare to "settle the accounts after the fall."
Chu Tianfeng was in the joy of being reborn and did not notice the murderous look in the eyes of his head teacher.
"Dali, please tell me quickly, which year, month and day it is this year, hurry up!"
Chu Tianfeng grabbed Gao Dali's broad shoulders with both hands and asked solemnly.
He must grasp the time after rebirth, otherwise how will he arrange his future life? Since God loves him so much and has given him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be reborn, he must make good use of it and never go down the path of failure again.
The road is on!
"Hey, Brother Tian, are you confused by your sleep?" Gao Dali stared at Chu Tianfeng as if he saw an alien.
"Answer my question!" Chu Tianfeng's face became very serious, and it didn't look like he was joking at all.
Gao Dali could only answer truthfully: "Today is May 13, 1998!"
"What? May 13, 1998?" Chu Tianfeng trembled again. This day was unforgettable in his life!
Because this is the anniversary of his high school dropout in his previous life!
Chu Tianfeng clearly remembered that on this day, Zhao Kaishun released the midterm exam results. He was the last in the class. Then Zhao Kaishun said a lot of very unpleasant things to him, in front of the whole class.
He scolded him so much that Chu Tianfeng couldn't bear the humiliation and dropped out of school the next day.
From then on, his life trajectory changed and he began to work everywhere, working as a mason on a construction site and as a laborer unloading goods at a train station.
Later, when the insurance company was recruiting people, Chu Tianfeng participated in the free training and became the first batch of trainees. He joined the insurance company and ran business every day.
I have been working like this for ten years without making any outstanding achievements at work. It is common for me to change jobs. I jumped from an insurance company to a securities company, and from a securities company to an online game company. I worked as a salesperson. In the end, I was unlucky to catch up.
During the financial crisis, he was eliminated...
At this time, on the podium, Zhao Kaishun was still reciting the results of this midterm exam "conscientiously", starting from Lin Yajing, the first place, to Han Wentao, the second place, and Cheng Meiyun, the third place, all the way through, his voice was loud and high.
.
Chu Tianfeng smiled faintly. This method of publicly announcing test results will never be allowed in future education reforms. It seriously hurts students' self-esteem.
Even now, in 1998, ten years ago, Zhao Kaishun's approach is still open to question. He completely ignored the psychological endurance of those poor students. Each score was like a bullet, penetrating the fragile little hearts...
"Chu Tianfeng! 47 points in Chinese, 12 points in mathematics, 59 points in English, 37 points in politics, 42 points in history, total score 197 points! Last in the class!"
Zhao Kaishun almost gritted his teeth and read out Chu Tianfeng's results, his eyes were on fire. It was obvious that Chu Tianfeng's results had completely exceeded the limit of his mental endurance.
You must know that in the current college entrance examination, 3+x has not been implemented across the country. The current one is 3+2. The liberal arts subjects are language and mathematics plus politics and history, each with 150 points, and the total score is 750 points.
Chu Tianfeng's results were not just average, but extremely poor. He was more than 400 points lower than the first place Lin Yajing. In some subjects, he couldn't even keep up with Lin Yajing's fraction.
With his grades, he can't even get into the worst third-tier universities. That's like a dead kid who fell into a well - there is no way to save him!
The discussion among the students rose again.
"Haha, Chu Tianfeng went from being admitted to the No. 1 middle school with the first place in the class to now falling to the last place. The trajectory of his decline can be described as shocking!"
"Oh, there's nothing I can do. No one can handle his family's affairs."
"Also, if I can't bear it, he should cheer up!"
"It's probably hopeless. He hasn't studied at all for more than a year!"
When Chu Tianfeng heard these discussions, he remembered that when he was a freshman in high school, great changes had indeed taken place in his family - his father Chu Gang, whom he had always been proud of, and the director of Tianhai Chenguang Light Vehicle Factory, was sentenced to death by the court for corruption and bribery.
Sentenced to fifteen years in prison, his mother Yin Guixin immediately divorced her father, abandoned Chu Tianfeng and went to the south alone, never to be heard from again.
In just one month, Chu Tianfeng's father was imprisoned, his mother disappeared, and a once harmonious and happy family was torn apart. This blow was too great for him, his academic performance plummeted, and his life deteriorated beyond recognition.
Chu Tianfeng will never believe that his father, who has always been upright, is actually a corrupt criminal. There must be a conspiracy! It is a pity that he did not uncover this conspiracy in his previous life, but now that God has given him a chance to be reborn,
Then we must get to the bottom of what happened to our father!
His eyes fell on Zhao Kaishun on the podium again, and he smiled faintly. He really didn't expect that he could return to campus. This was a lost opportunity in life. He must seize it this time!
Zhao Kaishun actually had the nerve to laugh when he saw Chu Tianfeng. You got the last place in the exam and you still got it? His little universe that he had been holding back for a long time finally burst out. He pointed at Chu Tianfeng and said sternly: "Chu Tianfeng, give it to me."
stand up!"
Chu Tianfeng took his time and lazily stood up from his seat, his eyes flashing with sharp determination, and he secretly made up his mind to be reborn and change his destiny, starting today!);.
