National Tide 1980

April 1981 was an extremely exciting month for people across the country.

Because this month is the month when our country has made great achievements in the world sports arena and made its debut.

First of all, the Chinese men's volleyball team held the World Cup Asian Qualifiers in Hong Kong City.

After losing two consecutive games at the beginning, it was a serious defeat. Don’t give up, don’t give up, keep chasing.

In the end, they won three games in a row, defeated South Korea, and successfully qualified as the Asian champion.

Immediately afterwards, at the 36th World Table Tennis Championships held in Yugoslavia.

The national table tennis players led by Cai Zhenhua, after hard work, unexpectedly won the championship in all events and the runner-up in each individual event.

This is the first time in the history of the World Table Tennis Championships that a country has created such brilliant results.

There is no doubt that these two games have brought great excitement to our people.

The chain reaction caused is huge.

That is in the capital, excited people couldn't help but pour into the streets.

Go to Tiananmen Square to march, sing, and express your emotions.

Especially Peking University, after the men's volleyball team won.

Those contemporary proud students not only banged pots and bowls on the May Fourth playground on campus, but also lit brooms as torches.

Moreover, under the leadership of Liu Zhida from the Chinese Department, everyone shouted out the strongest voice of the era that has been spread throughout the world and is unknown to everyone.

"Unite and revitalize China!"

As for Ning Weimin, he also listened to and watched these games through radio and television broadcasts.

No different from people of this era, he was also attracted by the intensity and exciting turns of the game, and was fascinated by the wonderful commentary of Song Shixiong, the best contemporary sports commentator.

Even as a special witness who knows the future historical evolution.

When I think of the brilliant achievements and great achievements that our country's sports industry will achieve in the next thirty years.

In fact, he was able to appreciate this spontaneous sense of national pride more clearly than anyone else and was infected by this patriotic sentiment.

Therefore, his most direct personal gain is that he has relieved a lot of depression and irritability, and is freed from negative emotions.

You know, this doesn't just refer to the frustration and forced forbearance in the "Ma's Garden" incident.

Also because this month, Ning Weimin's career was not going well in many aspects.

It was as if he was reciting words after being transported, and bad things came one after another.

First of all, as the weather gets warmer, large quantities of angelfish begin to flood the market.

Obviously, this is the consequence of selling out his technology.

Therefore, as the price of angel fish dropped rapidly, it fell from 50 cents per piece to 30 cents per piece.

The direct impact is that fish farming technology cannot be sold.

By the end of this month, he was receiving only one or two letters a day.

Obviously, in May, this source of wealth will be completely lost.

In addition, the ecological environment at the entrance of the cultural relics store and the stamp company has also undergone major changes.

Unknowingly, many idle people from society quietly appeared in these two places to join the army and fish in troubled waters.

Most of these people are an alternative group of people who have been sentenced to labor camps and jailed.

He looks like he is not stingy and unreasonable, he just comes here for the taste of meat, and he has become a market tyrant who monopolizes transactions at the lowest level.

Naturally, Ning Weimin couldn't compete with them in business, and he didn't dare to compete with them.

For the sake of personal safety and property safety.

If he wanted to like something, he could only endure the exploitation, let them increase the price, and then buy it at a high price from these people.

This caused his acquisition costs to increase a lot.

Just like once in a cultural relics store, an old lady brought a large blue bowl from the Xuande official kiln of the Ming Dynasty for sale.

The acquisition department was closed and no one was there to receive it.

The old lady didn't want to go back empty-handed, so she sold the bowl to the idle workers for fifteen yuan.

Ning Weimin watched the advantage and didn't dare to solicit.

It wasn't until the old lady left that he went over to discuss with those people.

In the end, I added an extra twenty yuan and bought it again at more than double the price.

Another time, at the gate of the stamp company, it was an old man who took the initiative to talk to Ning Weimin with a stamp album.

Ning Weimin also relied on his eyesight to find an extremely rare "Palace Gate Down" among many messy ordinary stamps.

But even so, when they reached a deal for three hundred yuan.

Some people still surrounded Ning Weimin with ill intentions, saying that he was out of business.

In the end, Ning Weimin had no choice but to give the other party fifteen yuan and apologize repeatedly in the name of "waking him up" to calm down the incident.

In short, people who have not experienced it personally will not understand how heartwarming this kind of thing is.

Fortunately, these people actually don’t know how to do it.

Their desires are not very high, they just want to earn some money for cigarettes and alcohol, or to have a good time in society.

So it’s not too harsh to take advantage of it for the time being.

Moreover, Ning Weimin also knew that the eye of the storm in 1983 was about to come.

In other words, these glazed balls are grasshoppers after autumn, and they won't be able to jump around for long.

This is enough for Ning Weimin to use sports competitions to forget these unpleasantnesses and sit back and wait for these bastards to destroy themselves.

But having said that, the exhilarating and motivating effect of sports competitions does not have the effect of resolving all depressions.

At least in Ning Weimin's heart, he still felt an indescribable awkwardness about one thing.

It's even hard to explain to others and impossible to discuss.

That is the big sale of foreign goods.

Don't forget that almost all of Ning Weimin's small businesses have encountered difficulties.

But the business cooperated with Zhang Shihui has become increasingly prosperous and outstanding.

Perhaps it was because of the fact that many people were getting married on May Day.

This month their income hit a new record. Zhang Shihui received 7,000 yuan, and Liu Weijing also received more than 3,000 yuan.

As for Ning Weimin himself, the apparent profit sharing plus the small moves in the accounts actually amounted to 12,000.

Logically speaking, it should be a good thing.

But the problem is that their main profit concentration is currently on imported color TVs and Casio electronic watches.

To be honest, Ning Weimin didn't know what was going on with him, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

The more money he makes, the more he can't help but wonder, is there any difference between himself and the foreign compradors of the old society?

Are they helping foreigners shear the wool of ordinary people in the capital?

Are they helping the Japanese and Western devils to exploit their own compatriots?

Should what he made be considered a national treasure?

Especially when he saw a new international news published in the newspaper, saying that IBM launched its first personal computer on April 24 this year, also known as personal computer, the English abbreviation of PC, that is, Personal Computer.

He couldn't even answer such a question.

Looking at Da Laomei, today's friends and future opponents have entered the PC era.

But he himself is selling other people's products to make money from the Chinese people.

He couldn't tell clearly what he was thinking, or whether he felt guilty.

He was even less clear about what he should do and what he could do.

Will you regret it if you think about it in the future?

And this is called confusion.
