I always want to write a poem for my motherland.

     I've always wanted to write a poem for my motherland, but the confusion and hesitation I feel now seem beyond the reach of words. My defiled body is more rotten than the remains in a grave; my chaotic and filthy soul is more lost than a traveler wandering in the fog.     What am I yearning for…?     I wander aimlessly through the fog, with only a sliver of reason left, needing no more protection. Only a remnant of wildness roams, gradually being swallowed up.     The arid Loulan Desert has turned me into a thousand-year-old mummy. My last vestige of consciousness wanders in this boundless desert, carried by the wind, still able to hear the ancient sounds of zithers and lutes. On the passing carriages,     surely, lies the longing of that beautiful woman.     As the sun sets, I, this thousand-year-old uncorrupted zombie, gaze at the deep sky. The lonely ghosts coming and going around me weep incessantly, as if telling ...

A pair of bright eyes -- Filial piety, respect for the elderly, and love for the elderly

     "Of all virtues, filial piety is the most important." "Filial piety is the foundation of morality." "Filial piety" is gratitude and love for the elderly;     "filial piety" is respect and care for the elderly. Respect for the elderly should be internalized, and filial piety should be outwardly manifested. Filial piety is always a part of our lives. We must avoid being superficially clever, deceiving the elderly, making empty promises, or speaking grand words. Filial piety resides in the heart and is put into action.     —Epigraph     "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, just before dusk." The setting sun shines brightly on the city streets. Several elderly men stroll slowly, and a grandmother walks to the market.     The school bell rings, and students pour out of the school gate in groups of several or two. Some are picked up by car, some by bicycle, and some on foot. The sounds of vehicles and people mingle together.   ...

Those twisted flowers

 Time: Monday morning past 6 o'clock, almost 7 o'clock; Location: On the bus; Characters: A middle school student, a gray haired old lady, and a crowded car; Event: The high school student did not pay attention to throwing the finished garbage on the old lady's feet. The old lady kindly advised the young man to pay attention. Surprisingly, the young man did not apologize for this and instead, the seemingly well-dressed and handsome young man opened his mouth and said, 'You're in charge of labor and management, there are so many things to do!'! At this moment, the old man's heart naturally felt uncomfortable, so he replied a few words, but his tone was still harmonious. In the end, they all received vicious responses from the young man, such as' You're so talkative, you're so talkative '. When the old man mentioned how his parents educated him, it turned out that the young man Zhang Yang wanted the old man to get off the car and fight her alon...

Reading "The Alibaba Management Model"

     When Alibaba is mentioned, I think of the business elite, Jack Ma. I feel compelled to describe him.     Jack Ma, born in the 1960s, came from an ordinary family on the beautiful shores of West Lake in Hangzhou. His deep-set physique revealed a mischievous grin, making him look somewhat eccentric. Even in his childhood, Jack Ma was a hero who would go to great lengths for his friends. "Helping those in need" was a defining characteristic of his youth. He often got into fights for others, all for his friends and for loyalty, in his own words. At school, however, he was a troublemaker, his grades were terrible, but he consistently excelled in English, laying a solid foundation for his later success.     Jack Ma's childhood cannot be described as "lucky." But this luck was largely self-created. He took the college entrance exam three times, scoring from 1 point, 19 points, and finally 79 points, surprising many. However, his scores were still below t...

Market research and analysis: Opening and operating a store on Taobao

     The future world will inevitably be one where online shopping combines with traditional commerce and online marketing. The proportion of people shopping online is increasing daily, and young people are becoming increasingly reliant on the internet. From the perspective of internet development trends, now is the perfect time to start an online store; there are many entrepreneurial opportunities and untapped markets. We need a pair of invisible wings (i.e., strategic thinking).     Society is becoming increasingly networked, and markets are diversifying, bringing online business opportunities. However, such opportunities can be both a source of wealth and a potential source of failure. Many people blindly follow the trend, seeing others easily earning extra money with their Taobao stores, and become tempted. They start their own stores, only to soon lose money and feel helpless. Others, however, are skilled at management, possess entrepreneurial spirit, and s...

Market Research and Analysis: Golden Dragon Cooking Oil

     As we all know, cooking oil is one of our daily necessities, an indispensable part of our nutrition, rich in oily substances that sustain our lives. However, today, very few people understand it.     Golden Dragon Fish was established in 1991 by the Kuok brothers' group from Singapore, who founded Nanhai Oils Co., Ltd. (Kerry Group) in Shenzhen to produce small-packaged Golden Dragon Fish brand cooking oil. This was no easy feat for people at the time. Now, it has captured the global market, entered people's homes, become an integral part of their lives, and created an inexhaustible source of wealth.     Back then, people mainly bought oil in bulk, without much brand recognition, carrying oil jugs to oil shops to fill. But the arrival of Golden Dragon Fish changed people's lives. Gradually, cooking oil entered supermarkets, changing its image from cheap to high-quality. The transparent small packaging and golden color gave people a sense of trust ...

Three lifestyles of suitors

     1. "Petty Bourgeoisie": This term generally emphasizes a lifestyle. People called "petty bourgeois" are particular about taste and style. They are wealthy and have leisure time, understand life and value enjoyment, living an elegant urban life. They pursue fashion, are individualistic and tasteful, are unrestrained, economically independent, and free to act. They are unwilling to be burdened by money, treat work as entertainment, and approach life and love with seven parts seriousness and three parts enthusiasm.     2. "White-collar workers": This refers to pure mental laborers; they earn a living through their thinking abilities. They belong to the affluent middle class in China, own an imported/domestic car, have a monthly salary of over 10,000 yuan, and own a villa/house with a market value of around 800,000 yuan.     3. "Gold-collar workers": This is a higher-income group that emerged with the advent of the internet age. Fortune magazine...

God won't give you everything -- James

     Tonight, the American Airlines Arena in Miami will be electrifying, and a great name will be forever etched in the Miami Heat's history—LeBron James. James led the Heat to a 4-1 victory over the young Oklahoma City Thunder with a triple-double of 26 points, 13 assists, and 11 rebounds, winning the 2011-12 NBA championship and, unsurprisingly, the Finals MVP. This was his first NBA title, the highest honor in his career—the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy. And this day marks exactly 8 years, 11 months, and 26 days since he entered the NBA.     I've always wanted to write something for James after his championship win, not out of blind worship or pointless idol worship, but because of the destiny he embodies for young people born in the 1980s. Without unwavering perseverance, there would be no King James as we know him today. My interest in LeBron James actually began after he left the Cavaliers. His story truly embodies the ancient Chinese philosophy: "Whe...

Thank you for teaching me about the soul.

   Thank you for letting me understand the thrill of a heartbeat. This is the fifth article in a series. I'm so grateful to you for letting me understand the feeling of longing for someone alone. My heart fluttered when I first saw you. When you weren't there, I felt lost, missed you, thinking of your words, your smile, your figure, your hairstyle. I wonder if you've ever had a similar experience.   That was a flutter of the heart, hazy and indistinct. We took a single word, a smile, a chance encounter with him, and turned it into our own story, a deep-seated yearning for him. We would feel heartache, loss. You taught me about the thrill of a heartbeat, about the feeling of liking someone. Secretly watching you, you noticed, and I, innocent and shy, thought you also secretly loved me. My heart fluttered.   In class, unintentionally not paying attention, I saw your profile, and my heart started pounding. This was my own yearning for him, both guilty and thrilled. My heart fl...

General's Banquet

     At a lunch, I had a pleasant conversation with Colonel Wang Hailong, Chief of Staff of the Binhai Naval Base and a friend of a colleague. We were both military personnel, though Wang was still active duty while I had retired. After graduating from military academy, I was assigned to an air force unit in eastern Guangdong, while my classmate Yang Junwei was assigned to a naval unit in southern China. I heard he had worked at the Binhai base for over 30 years, eventually becoming its political commissar. After retiring and returning to civilian life, I found it inconvenient to inquire about his whereabouts. After moving to the oil city with my child, and given its proximity to Binhai, I had the idea of ​​meeting him, hoping to get accurate information about him from Colonel Wang.     Colonel Wang, his eyes gleaming with a bright, cunning light, deliberately kept us in suspense, saying, "What you've been searching for everywhere is right under your nose; it's ...

The sound of the alarm clock

     Everyone's familiar with alarm clocks, right? Alarm clocks are a great help in life; they remind us to get up on time and remember important days and things. But have you ever thought about how to choose the right alarm sound?     In bustling cities, for us young working professionals with vibrant nightlife, alarm clocks are practically indispensable. We've become accustomed to relying on them to wake us up every day. If we didn't have an alarm clock, we simply couldn't believe we could get out of bed on time. What if we were late? That's equivalent to a day's pay for attendance—29 days of punctual attendance, ruined on the last day! That kind of frustration is infuriating!     So, alarm clocks easily solve this problem! But when alarm clocks wake us up, they also bring other problems. In the morning or at noon, we're dreaming, but the alarm clock makes it impossible to sleep a little longer. The piercing sound can even suddenly wake us up, causin...

Life may be long, but only a few steps truly matter.

     I've always enjoyed reading biographies because I firmly believe that history is essentially the history of people, and learning from history often means learning from people.     During my university years, I experienced a period of confusion, unable to see my direction in life, feeling depressed and lost every day. Inspired by a friend, I read many biographies of famous people. I set aside their great achievements and focused solely on their student days. Whether it was a turning point in their lives, hoping to gain some inspiration; a moment of amnesia, hoping for some encouragement; or a moment of triumph, hoping for some advice. I focused particularly on business figures and Harvard elites, because I deeply admired Harvard's educational philosophy—though I couldn't be there in person, I longed for it. That reading experience truly benefited me greatly, prompting much reflection.     When I read Kinsey's biography, I discovered that he loved b...

Behind every small sense of accomplishment lies countless trials and tribulations.

     Standing in the long river of history, looking back on the past 30 years of reform and opening up, national enterprises have produced many outstanding individuals with unique characteristics, exemplary figures renowned for their self-reliance, innovation, and perseverance, who have passed on their arduous journey to the next generation.     There's a saying: "No one succeeds easily; only those who have endured hardship can truly shine!" Thinking about myself, yesterday afternoon after my computer fundamentals practical class, I actually spent half the afternoon in my dorm until evening before finally achieving some success. Our personal mobile phones often have pre-installed system software that is generally impossible to uninstall. If the phone's internal memory is too small, it's obviously insufficient for storage, often prompting messages like: "Dear, your internal storage is about to run out, please clean it up in time." So, how would you expand...

Three-inch Golden Lotus

     Whenever we recall the lines, "How much sorrow can one have? It's like a river of spring water flowing eastward," we easily think of one person: Li Yu, the last ruler of the Later Tang Dynasty. People may only know him as a poet and a ruler who lost his kingdom, but they may not know the "three-inch golden lotus" phenomenon that arose because of him.     Of course, some say that the concept of women's bound feet already existed in the Warring States or Shang Dynasty. However, perhaps the name "three-inch golden lotus" originated from one of his dancers, or perhaps his concubines! Between 969 and 975 AD, a dancer or concubine of Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty ingeniously bound her feet into crescent shapes with silk and danced on golden lotus flowers to please the emperor.     It was this ingenuity, this act of pleasing the emperor, that laid the foundation for the distorted aesthetic standards of men for over a thousand years. When the roy...

When milk becomes a deadly hazard

     Living standards have undeniably improved, that's for all to see. But has the overall quality of humanistic values ​​in our country improved or declined? There are more and more profit-driven merchants, while the number of virtuous people is dwindling. Isn't this an irony for a great nation like China, known for its civilization and etiquette?     Many children have died from drinking Sanlu milk powder, and others are still under investigation. How heartbreaking this is! Who will provide the answers we seek? Yes, we don't deny our country's superiority and humanity, but we also don't deny the depraved greed and ruthless behavior of many unscrupulous individuals. What     we, the people, don't understand is whether this is a negligence in national laws or the fault of private enterprises. What were the quality inspection officials doing? Can they give the people a satisfactory explanation? Actually, it's too late to say anything now. Even if the ma...

Live a brilliant life with a high-profile approach.

     To live a high-profile life, one must know how to exert effort in the details     and pay attention to small matters     . In fact, those who neglect small things and focus solely on big things often achieve less than those who do small things. Therefore, living a high-profile life requires paying attention to small matters.     Cao Pi could disregard small matters because he was the emperor. If he had done so before ascending the throne, his fate would have been the same as Cao Zhi's.     Cao Zhi was a natural-born writer but not a qualified politician. He acted like a child, just doing things without considering the consequences, only caring about immediate enjoyment.     One year, Cao Cao led his troops to attack Eastern Wu, leaving Cao Zhi to guard Ye City. Later, Sun Quan surrendered, and Cao Cao returned victorious to Ye City. Upon arriving home, someone accused Cao Zhi of "opening the Sima Gate without permissi...
