On both sides of the Yellow River, there are many high-rise buildings and busy traffic. The hustle and bustle of the city covers the greed and darkness in the hearts of many people.
Xiao Jiangxi is a girl who has just arrived in the big city to work hard, covets the money and power of the city, and dreams of becoming rich overnight.
By chance, she met the boss of Jin Merrill Lynch Advertising Company, and took a fancy to the identity and wealth of the representative behind it.
Since then, she has been obsessed with trying every means to gain the trust of Boss Jin, please Boss Jin, and only want to be the boss lady of Jin Meilin.
For this purpose, she did not hesitate to give everything. She has embezzled Jin Meilin's funds twice for high-risk investments, hoping to realize her dreams with the help of huge leverage.
But the risk in the capital market was far greater than she imagined, and the two hasty investments failed and the principal was wiped out. This should have made Xiao Jiangxi sober, but the pain of failure made her crazy.
She was unwilling to give up this dream that was close at hand, but was even more fanatical about gaining the trust of Boss Jin and getting funds to fight again. Psychologists say that failure often makes people have the best psychology, and Xiaojiangxi is such a clear example.
Young people should have ideals and aspirations, but they should also understand that dreams of getting rich can easily come to naught. We have to be rational, everything requires time and effort, and it can't be achieved overnight.
Illusory dreams will only make people lose themselves, what we have to do is to accumulate in a down-to-earth manner and enjoy the ordinary pleasures in life.
Xiao Jiangxi's successive failed investment moves did not bring the expected huge wealth, but brought a catastrophic blow to Jin Meilin's capital chain. The company's operation is in trouble, and Boss Jin is anxious, and he asks for help everywhere to no avail.
Finally, at a family gathering, a seemingly heavenly opportunity appeared - a businesswoman from Taiwan, Mrs. Lin, offered to help, but needed Boss Jin to mortgage Jin Meilin's real estate.
To everyone's surprise, Boss Jin agreed to this request after only a little thought. Everyone is speculating how he, a man who has been in business for many years, could make such a hasty and risky decision at this critical moment.
This is a far cry from the steady and sophisticated style he has always had. But Boss Jin knew in his heart that he and Xiao Jiangxi were cornered, and this was a desperate gamble to try to turn the tables.
They seemed to grasp the last straw, hoping that the heavens would descend on them.
However, we must not be blinded by immediate interests when judging issues. Be rational, weigh the pros and cons, and avoid making a wrong judgment at a critical moment. There are many opportunities in the business field, but they are also full of thrills.
We need to think carefully and carefully consider every decision. Only by resolving problems through wisdom can we get out of the predicament and not go to a dead end.
That day was a Black Monday that Boss Jin and Xiao Jiangxi couldn't forget. The two who held a large amount of money suffered heavy losses, and the huge debt owed to Mrs. Lin was unable to be repaid.
As the repayment date approached, they finally realized that the tide was over, and they were in a desperate situation.
Xiao Jiangxi tried everything he could, asking for help everywhere, hoping to turn the tables again through luck at the last moment. But all the doors were closed, and she couldn't find any new money**.
Faced with impending defeat, she convinces Boss Kim to flee with her, away from the city that can no longer provide the soil for their dreams. Even if there is only a glimmer of life left, we must continue to struggle.
However, Boss Jin refused, saying that he could not give up the city that had witnessed his entrepreneurial journey. Xiao Jiangxi begged Boss Jin with red eyes, but Boss Jin only shook his head slightly.
He understands that it is all over and that it is time to face reality. Xiao Jiangxi looked at the back of Boss Jin who turned to leave, tears finally poured out, she knew that she had nothing.
When we're stuck, stay positive, but also face reality. Sometimes the wise choice is not to run away, but to face it bravely. We need to keep our peace of mind, accept failure, and then start again.
Escaping will not solve the problem, only by facing up to oneself can we regain hope.
On that day, the originally peaceful Yellow River Road became miserable and chaotic because of an accident.
According to the agreement, today is the day when Mrs. Lin comes to collect debts. However, Boss Jin, who was in charge of reception, was nowhere to be found, which made the entire Jin Meilin employees panic and their hearts fluctuated.
Just when everyone was speculating about Boss Jin's whereabouts, Xiao Jiangxi looked up and saw a familiar figure crawling in through the window on the third floor.
She realized that this might be the last time she persuaded Boss Kim, so she rushed forward. In her eagerness, she pulled Boss Jin and wanted him to escape with her. At this time, she accidentally unbuttoned the window.
Seeing that Boss Jin lost his support and the whole person fell from the window, Xiao Jiangxi wanted to pull him up, but it was too late. I saw Boss Jin's body fall from the third floor and hit a car parked downstairs hard, killing him on the spot.
Xiao Jiangxi's face turned dead white, and she hadn't fully reacted to what was happening. The surrounding crowd was screaming, crying, and whispering, and the scene was chaotic.
Xiao Jiangxi stood at the window on the third floor, staring blankly at the scene below, his brain blank.
Life is fragile, and we should not be greedy for the pleasure of the moment, but should be cautious. At the same time, be tolerant of the mistakes of others and give a helping hand within your ability. Perhaps a well-intentioned persuasion can change a person's fate.
Seeing Boss Jin pass away like this, the entire Yellow River Road was weak and in a daze because of this sudden change. But soon, Xiao Jiangxi's attention was on another place - she remembered the gold ring on Boss Jin's hand, which was inlaid with expensive diamonds, which was a treasure she thought about day and night.
She knew she had to find it before anyone noticed.
So, when everyone else was still immersed in the shock and mourning for Boss Jin's death, Xiao Jiangxi just squatted on the ground and searched carefully. Blood covered the ground, but she didn't care, just groping around with a frenzy.
Finally, after the police and paramedics carried away Boss Kim's body and the crowd of onlookers dispersed, she found the priceless gold ring in a pool of blood.
Xiao Jiangxi's eyes lit up, as if he was in heaven. However, greed is never satisfied, it makes people forget morality, lose themselves, and even the passing of life cannot make people sober.
We must always be vigilant against the greed in our hearts, enrich ourselves with kindness, and enrich our lives with giving. Only in this way can true happiness be achieved.
In the end, Xiao Jiangxi still failed to escape the consequences of greed, which not only ruined her future, but also caused her to lose the people she was once closest to.
Afterwards, Lu Meilin, who came to his senses, found Xiao Jiangxi and punched and kicked her to vent his anger. Xiao Jiangxi was beaten half to death, his face was bruised, and his facial features were distorted. Lu Meilin kicked her out of Jin Meilin and forbade her to step into this place for another half step.
Since then, Xiaojiangxi has only the hard-won gold ring left, and has lived a lonely and poor life.
And this series of events also made Lu Meilin's position in Jin Meilin unsafe. Her domineering style completely lost the hearts of the people, and everyone only had fear and hatred for her.
Eventually, due to the opposition of the employees, Lu Meilin had to leave the place.
Greed harms others and ourselves, and we must always be vigilant. As members of society, we should be a haven of peace for others by doing good deeds.
It is only when we bring warmth to others that our lives have a true meaning. Otherwise, we will have nothing.
The Yellow River still flows, and it bears witness to the ups and downs of the city's many stories. Each of us is here to pursue our dreams or fortunes, some to succeed and some to leave disappointed.
But the unchanging truth is that we will come here and leave empty-handed.
Boss Jin has pursued money and status all his life, but these will eventually come to naught. He made a choice regardless of principles and morals, and finally reaped the consequences. We all have a greedy side, but we must always be vigilant and not let it dominate our hearts.
Only by doing good deeds can we gain the meaning of life.
We can't predict what fate will arrange for us, but we can guard our hearts through self-restraint. Don't be induced by external money and materials, and adhere to the original intention of justice and integrity.
The meaning of life is not in the pursuit of empty wealth, but in whether we live our own lives.
Let's encourage each other, make progress together, never forget the essence of life, and enjoy every moment. We will all grow old, the Ganges will remain, and life will be eternal.
The story of the Yellow River does not end with the loss of one life after another, it is still surging eastward, containing the joys, sorrows and sorrows of countless people in this city. Each of us is struggling, gaining and losing.
However, the most precious is undoubtedly life itself.
Boss Kim chases for money and status, but loses everything because of greed. Xiao Jiangxi wanted to get rich overnight, but fell into the abyss of sin. They have forgotten that the essence of life lies in the pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty, and in mutual understanding and care with others.
We must cherish the present, live in the present, and avoid being deceived by the vain desires of the past and the future. Have good thoughts in your heart and warm others with the sun. Do what you can to inject warmth into every corner of the city.
Every small act of kindness will make the river of life better.
Let us not forget the essence of life, live our own life, and gain the meaning of life. No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles. As long as each of us takes a small step forward, the whole world will be different.
There is a long way to go, and we continue to move forward.
