Synopsis
From the 1990s to 2010, the non-public economy bloomed like a sleeping lotus in small counties. The opening line of "The Woman Floating in the Market River": The story of the old street is told by the businessman, the story of the businessman is told by the years, and the story of the years is told by the new city. "When Xia Jing walked into the street to open a clothing store, the low bungalows and vegetable carts in the county town were everywhere. The two-story department store was the landmark building of the small town. In the dilapidated background of the streets, unemployed women appeared one by one, and some were selling noodles. Pi Qijia opened a furniture store, and someone built a small villa on a bed-board stall and then expanded it. Women have to complete their mission: get married and have children, but also survive in the competition, live a life of nirvana, and become a living image of working women. The protagonist Xia Jing did not dare to have a child after she became pregnant. After becoming pregnant, she went around collecting bills with a big belly. After the birth, the decoration store's business was divided among peers and fell into crisis. The fat sister-in-law had an argument with Mr. Zeng, who was eating the Frost King's meal, and injured someone and ruined the family's fortune. The disabled Wang Ermagan had an affair with Xiao Ziyun, a beautiful woman living in Chongqing. Wang Ermagan was imprisoned, and Xiao Ziyun took a pair of children to run the grocery store into the first large supermarket. She influences the people around her with her traditional cultural thoughts and feelings of gratitude. After Wang Ermagan was released from prison, he transformed from a rookie into a phoenix and climbed to the top of his career. Ximei, a pretty rural girl, went to the city to work as an apprentice and married a farmer who came to the city to work. She had a bad fate. Sewing shops and video parlors that were once prosperous have gradually withdrawn from the market, and some emerging industries have emerged. The dilapidated old streets and alleys like comic strips have retreated into the depths of time. Purpose: From 1990 to 2010, it was a special era at the transition between the old and the new century. The non-public economy in small counties was like a sleeping lotus, blooming one petal after another. Unemployed women walked out of their homes, and the opening of the market gave them opportunities. They entered the market in the initial stage of the non-public economy and realized their life dreams of economic independence. They not only had to survive in the brutal competition, but also had to fulfill their dreams. In the throes of their own mission, marriage and childbirth, the start, development and collision of the non-public economy, incomplete national policies, and life-and-death competition among peers, their family members said they were playing tricks on the streets, making their dream of getting rich ups and downs, and full of suspense. From the initial investment of a few thousand yuan in the non-public sector, to the contentment of the little woman sitting in front of the shop wearing a golden "three golds" and admiring endlessly. From the intrigues at the beginning of doing business to the psychological transformation process of mutual help and mutual benefit, the traditional cultural ideas are imbued in the works, which truly reproduces the lively living conditions of the small people at the bottom of society. Such as the text of the article: The story of the old street is told by the shop, the story of the shop is told by the merchant, the story of the merchant is told by the road... The small town is like a comic strip with old bungalows in the 1970s, bumpy streets and alleys, with carts selling vegetables and carts selling vinegar. Mosquitoes and flies swirl around a pile of smelly shoes cobbled together. The sesame seed seller and the steamed bun seller were at odds with each other early in the morning, and their obscene and savage activities became a seasoned breakfast for passers-by. The previous demolition and reconstruction of streets were all a forced ambush. The old man Zeng carried out the coffin and ran over anyone who dared to demolish it. Guo Gai protested with his death. Today, tall buildings stand tall, fountains and small squares are surrounded by green panels and flowers. The old people lament that the county town can be built like this. The streets under their feet are as wide as the sky above their heads. The protagonist Xia Jing has an emotional entanglement with her first love Wang Xi, her boss Zhang Qiang, who later broke up while doing business, and her government-official husband Gao Shaoguang. The marriages and families of these lively little women, Xiao Ziyun, Sister Lin, San Jianjian, and Wang Stubble, as well as the living conditions of women under the non-public economic system, are presented in real form, allowing readers to experience the extreme state of professionalism and survival philosophy of women under the non-public economic system. In the Chinese literary world, there are novels about farmers, ancient romances, and urban romances, each of which has its own contributions and achievements. However, the people who worked hard under the conditions of the non-public economy after the reform and opening up shouldered the responsibility of revitalizing the economy in a special historical period. They were called self-employed. There was no writer who dedicated his writing to them. This is a role that has been forgotten by the media and the public. In order to write about them, the author opened a small shop to experience the sadness, perseverance and pioneering spirit of individual workers. As a result, the fiery scenes of individual workers in the work come to life. "Women Floating in the Market River" is a secret history of individual workers. ,
