At the age of 29, Zhou Song, as the youngest Chinese manager at Goldman Sachs, was invited back to his alma mater, Xinhan High School, to attend the school celebration.
After the speech, the host smiled and asked him: "Senior Zhou, what do you think is the greatest achievement in your twenty-nine years of life?"
There was silence in the audience. The eyes of the junior students were unabashed admiration and expectation, waiting for a standard answer about ambition and ability.
Zhou Song's eyes crossed the crowd and landed on the people in the back row of the auditorium who were wearing masks and playing with their mobile phones.
He spoke into the microphone, and his voice spread throughout the venue through the speakers, word for word, clear and firm:
"I didn't walk 12,900 kilometers from Jiangzhou to New York, nor did I go from delivering food to being a 'Wall Street elite' in charge of billions of dollars in capital as you call me."
He paused and said, "The person I fell in love with when I was sixteen years old still finds the ceremony boring today, thirteen years later, and sits in the audience waiting for me to go home."
At that moment, all the grand narratives about struggle were defeated by the young man who never left in the depths of time.
Intention: My great achievements in life are only related to you, love is the only weight
