【097】Fire

Before hanging up the phone, Yanzi asked me: "Have you gone to see Fire?"

I said, "Go today."

At lunch time, I met Fire.

Looking at his fat body, I felt a little dazed.

Once upon a time, Fire had the potential to become the protagonist of the novel.

He has a handsome face, a slutty look, an evil smile, that's all, he has such a humorous conversation and a free and easy personality. It's not over yet. He looks like the once popular tall book, and he can dominate the basketball skills of the whole school. Many girls scream in spring when they see him playing basketball, and later he even became a professional CS player.

Such a person is undoubtedly a star-like figure in his student days. It is no exaggeration to say that in our student days, Fire was our leader, and he had an absolute say in many things.

After saying goodbye to my student days, some things became very complicated.

Like me, Fire also withdrew in the middle of college.

What’s different from me is that after Fire entered society, she failed to put her position in the right place.

Fire spent a while looking for a job, and I watched him get more and more depressed day by day. He was different from us. Before leaving school, he was always a shining figure, but after leaving school, no one missed him when he went out for an interview. Any little bastard could call him around and drink.

Fire cannot accept such a gap, and he is very proud inside and he is unwilling to say these things, so he can only hold them alone. Over time, problems will arise.

Many years later, I kept thinking that as friends of Fire, we are responsible. During his most helpless period, we did not give him enough help, and even understood his inner world.

What determines the direction of Fire's life is his first job.

It was a job called sales, and its nature was very similar to that of pyramid schemes.

After Fire entered that company, his whole body changed. We all suspected that he had been brainwashed, but he ignored our opinions and had the intention of going to the dark.

Later I often thought that Fire at that stage was eager to prove himself. He wanted to prove that he could eat well in school and still eat well after entering society. But human calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Sometimes, if you are too persistent in pursuing the same wrong thing, you will easily take the wrong path and cannot turn back.

Since he worked that job, Fire has been thinking about sales commission and earning tens of thousands of dollars a month, and he is completely uninterested in the job of paying several thousand yuan. Moreover, he firmly believes that he will succeed. Anyone who dares to persuade him will be ruthlessly humiliated by him.

If he gets drunk, he will ask you this: "Do you look down on me? Do you think I must not be able to do it? Do you think I must not succeed?"

During that period, Fire was very crazy and often went out to do business in the middle of the night, commonly known as business development.

In order to motivate himself, he also posted a note on the mirror of the dressing cabinet and wrote a poem on it.

This poem is very talented, with a total of twelve words: every night, every night, every month, every month, every month's salary is tens of thousands!

Every time I wake up in the morning, Fire will practice that professional smile in front of the mirror, and clench your fists before leaving the door and shout: "Monthly salary is tens of thousands!"

Whenever I see him like this, I will remember Stephen Chow, the King of Comedy, shouting to the sea: Work hard, struggle...

At that time, I even believed that maybe Fire could really succeed.

A month later, Fire stood in front of the mirror again and said a famous saying.

I will always remember that on that day of that month, Fire stood in front of the mirror in a silence, looked at him left and right, and then sighed to the sky: "Such handsome man has no money..."

This is the real reality.

Since then, Fire has been drunk, going to do his sales during the day, and drinking non-stop when he comes back at night.

I used to think that I was the person with the most tacit understanding with Fire. Many times, we could understand the other person's meaning with just one look. But after that, I became increasingly unable to understand him and could not guess what he was thinking.

Originally, Fire and Yuanyuan lived with three people, and we always thought that good brothers had to live together, which would reflect the years of friendship. After that period, our concepts changed, and the three of them went their own way. That was the first time I felt that living with good friends might not be a good thing.

There is a movie called Chinese Partner in the future, and there is a line in it: Don’t start a company with your good friend…

This sentence is probably correct, it should be the experience accumulated by many entrepreneurs. After I left, Fire and Yuanyuan and Roger got together for a while. It is said that they were going to work together to build a project, but somehow they didn't succeed. Later, the matter became serious. The three of them had knots in their hearts, and Fire and Yuanyuan never contacted each other again since then.

Because of these messy things, I went back to see them and had to meet them separately.

On this day, when I saw Fire, I suddenly realized that I still felt a sense of indebtedness when facing him.

At one of the most miserable periods in my life, I was in Fire. At that time, we rented a house in a place called Sunshine City in Longquanyi District, and Fire started a CS team with a few people. At that time, I didn’t know what to do. I was idle until I had nothing to do during the day and had nothing to do at night. I was penniless for a long time and even had to deal with rent, water and electricity.

Later I often thought that it was probably the life of that period that made me later.

I also thought that if I hadn't gone to see him back then, maybe Fire would have another idea, and maybe he would choose to continue studying, finish college, and embark on another path.

After so many years, I found that the only thing I could do was to meet him every time I returned to Sichuan.

We were very unfamiliar with this meeting at first, but gradually let go at night. I recalled many days we spent together.

I often think of the first time we had a heart-to-heart exchange in high school, in an old house on the old playground of the school. It was an abandoned bathroom, and many boys would hide there to smoke when they were in physical education class. That day, I finished playing basketball with Fire and soaked in the abandoned bathroom. Fire suddenly squatted in the corner of the wall, took out a pencil sharpener, and kept scattering against the wall...

Later I learned that next to the wall is the women's toilet, and the old-fashioned women's toilet was not abandoned. Because it is old-fashioned, there are a row of unobstructed squat seats in the women's toilet. If there is a hole in the wall, you will see whatever you should see.

That day, Fire had a heart-to-heart communication with me. He told his dream, which was to dig a hole in the wall. I was moved by his spirit of Yugong moving mountains, and I took out a knife to dig it with him.

I have said that dreams can give humanity great power.

Later, with the unremitting efforts of our Thirteenth Taibao, the wall was finally cut through! Every time we finished the break, we ran to that place, smoking while taking turns to appreciate the white butt from the hole...

I often remember that we even go to the bathroom together and all kinds of activities gathered together. After so many years, he will always be clouds and smoke, a teenager, and a dream forever.

I often remember that once a group of people rode bicycles and went to a small town in Fire's hometown. Then they rode back to the county town. Everyone was so tired that their legs were weak, but we still enjoyed it.

I often remember when I was in Sunshine City, when I went out to eat noodles with Fire and picked out a piece of meat from the noodles. At that time, I looked at him silently and smiled extremely lewdly. Because we hadn't eaten meat for a week. That day, looking at the piece of meat, we showed a tearful smile.

I often remember one day in 2004, when we were so tired that we went to watch the Chinese Super League. At that time, the Sports City of Sunshine City was the home court of Shuijingfang, Sichuan. Shuijingfang unfortunately lost to Guoan in that game. A chance to shoot outside the field was about to end the game, Fire lay in the stands desperately and shouted excitedly at a player in Guoan: "Xu Yunlong, Xu Yunlong!"

Xu Yunlong thought Fire was his loyal fan, so he raised his head and smiled at Fire.

Unexpectedly, Fire suddenly raised his middle finger and roared: "My God, you are a fairy Banban!"

At that moment, the legendary Dragon Team's face turned green.

Time flies, and we are no longer young people.

Now that Fire is about to enter the marriage hall, he is no longer the same as he used to be.

When I heard that he was going to get married, I asked: "Do you still have any contact with Zhenzhen?"

Fire was stunned for a moment and said, "I haven't contacted you for a long time."

Zhenzhen is Zhenzhen among the five golden flowers.

At this point, it's time to tell some stories about the five golden flowers.

The story starts with Cuicui, who is the boss of five golden flowers.

At the beginning of the story, Cuicui had such a little meaning to Fire.

You know, the beginning of the beautiful story, the tragedy is counting down.

In the end, the two of them did not hook up and became a gangster, which caused an unexpected surprise. A group of animals, like wolves and tigers, developed a strong interest in Cui Cui's roommate. After a chaotic period, they actually gathered three pairs.

First, Xiaofeng and Qi Qi got along, then Lao Li and Yunyun, who rented a house with us, got along, and finally Fire got along with Zhenzhen for no reason.

Like couples who have developed to a certain level in China, these people have successively opened rooms, and Fire and Zhenzhen are no exception. It is this incident that has aroused strong reaction from everyone.

Because everyone knows that Fire doesn't like Zhenzhen in his heart, and being with Zhenzhen is a helpless ending of being chased.

In my memory, Zhenzhen is the tallest girl among the five golden flowers, and she is over 1.7 meters tall. I don’t know why she likes Fire, nor why she has to be with Fire. The only thing I know is that this kind of thing is too complicated, so it’s better to turn a blind eye.

At that time, everyone still had a conscience and thought that Fire was not appropriate.

Xiaofeng took the lead in making this opinion: "If others talk about the real thing, you talk about the fake thing, and they will think that we are not at ease."

Lao Li was also worried: "I have made a vow to Yunyun. If you do this, the people in their dormitory might think that I'm telling lies and you've hurt me."

Fire was very angry: "This means I've destroyed stability and unity? I've become a rat shit that ruined the soup, right?" As he said that, Fire stared at me, making me feel like I had the last conscience, and asked: "Brother Long, say justice, what would you do if a woman was going to get to you by life or death?"

I thought about it seriously and said, "I will pay my respects to her."
