Here is a short story about Stanley Ho. When he was young, his family was rich, but poor. He saw the world was cold, so he studied hard. Now he is the richest man in Macao and the fourth in Asia. Although I don't admire him, sometimes I think reading this story will really change people and inspire people to share it with LZ:
Studying in college, Eric's life is not easy. Students are children of rich families and bureaucrats, living in luxury and wearing luxury clothes. Although Eric was born into a noble family, his family wealth declined completely. Eric is embarrassed to say his family lineage. He knew that everything was empty. Only when he has achieved something can others face up to himself. Eric is familiar with family history, while Bodong and his father-in-law He Fu both developed by reading.
Eric regards books as his friends and reading as his pleasure. But on the weekend holiday, Eric didn't seem to feel a trace of joy. Students either go to the movies, go shopping, travel to outlying islands in the New Territories, or fall in love in pairs ... Students have money, and weekends and holidays are the days when they spend money. At this time, Eric was particularly afraid of being with them. Eric was inseparable and really bored, so he talked to the school pastor and listened to him talk about the Bible. Then go to the library to read the writing homework.
There is a female classmate in the class who is interested in the tall and handsome Eric, and Eric also has a good impression on this beautiful female classmate. On weekends, she saw that Eric was lonely and invited Eric to accompany her to the coffee shop in the city to listen to classical music.
Men and women have tea and dinner together, usually the man pays the bill unless the woman invites them. However, Eric thinks that if he accepts this woman's gift, he will be unmanly. The money he squeezed out was only enough to eat, so he excused himself.
Lying in bed tossing and turning at night, the charming voice and smile of that female classmate always appear in my mind. Eric, who is in adolescence, can't love and has a bad heart.
In order to get rid of the fancies of love, Eric even buried himself in a book to forget those annoying "fancies". Eric's hard work has paid off, and his study has been very good. In his sophomore year, his average score ranked first in the School of Science. Decades later, Eric still talks about it.
Finally, I accidentally saw LZ's proposal, which is not a problem. I felt very exciting when I came in. This is also an opportunity. If LZ doesn't dislike it, then make friends and work together.
