Rebirth 1978: Thirty Years of the Prophet

Chronology·1978Educated Youth Returns to the CityMuffled BossSlap in the Face Counterattack He was sixty-four years old, childless, and died of illness alone. In my previous life, I didn't take the college entrance examination, I didn't venture into Shenzhen, and I didn't dare to buy a house. Throughout my life, I chose the most cowardly path at every intersection. When I open my eyes again, I am twenty-two years old. In 1978, the educated youth had a leaky adobe house. It's snowing heavily outside the window, and there are eight places on the list for returning to the city--he's not there. "Team Leader Wang, I am the ninth one on the original list." "I also remember the four cotton-padded clothes you withheld in the past two years." No one knows—— The soul of this twenty-two-year-old educated youth has lived for sixty-four years. In his pocket was a notebook filled with dates for the next thirty years. He knew about the blizzard in three days. He knew how many times the gold price in New York would double in a year. He knew that the yen would rise from 260 to 120 in a few years. He knows all about the housing prices that will increase in thirty years. Starting from fifty cents. Ten months later, five thousand yuan. Two years later, everyone in the village called him "Ten Thousand Yuan Household"—— No one knows that he is in a non-existent account in Hong Kong, A total of fourteen million dollars lay quietly. My father spent his whole life squatting on the threshold smoking dry cigarettes, never standing straight up. In this life, he wants his father to stand up. The factory is the second step. The bearing that fell in front of the Japanese at the Canton Fair was the third step. Hong Kong, Tokyo, New York - just the fourth, fifth and sixth steps behind. He doesn't fight, doesn't show off, and doesn't want anyone to remember his name. He only needs to press the days on the notebook, one by one, Quietly win the entire thirty years.
