Hong Kong film: Forever, a killer with amazing skills

So... does hard work really pay off?

Ling Yaqing couldn't help but ask herself this question.

"What are you thinking about?"

At this moment, Ye Tianming also walked over with two wine glasses.

He handed Ling Yaqing a cup.

"Master, do you think it's really useful for ordinary people to work hard?"

Ling Yaqing took the wine glass and looked at her master, asking a question.

She couldn't figure out the answer to the question right away, and she felt that the answer she came up with in her current state might not be correct.

"Effort?" Ye Tianming smiled and said.

"However, even if an ordinary family works hard their whole life, they can't earn ten million, while rich people like you, Master, can easily earn hundreds of millions or even more."

With a look of existential doubt, Ling Yaqing said, "I don't know if I should continue to work hard. I feel like I've lost my purpose in life."

"Why make such a comparison?" Ye Tianming turned to look at the dark sea in the distance. "Look, although the sea is pitch black at night, it will be very beautiful once it gets light."

"Life is the same. Rich people have their way of living, and ordinary people have their way of living. If you compare yourself to others in everything, you will find that your life will become very tiring, and your heart will be filled with confusion, unsure whether everything you do is worthwhile."

"At this point, what you need to do is ask yourself honestly: have your efforts paid off?"

Ye Tianming looked at his apprentice, who was at a crossroads in his life and had fallen into a state of confusion.

"If there is a reward, then ask yourself if the reward is worth the effort."

"If you meet the requirements, then congratulations, your efforts have been worthwhile!"

"Your efforts have been rewarded!"

"What if it doesn't meet the requirements?" Ling Yaqing asked.

In this world, there are too many people whose work effort and their income are disproportionate.

You put in 100 points, but only get 10 points in return.

Ye Tianming was just an ordinary working man in his previous life.

He understood what Ling Yaqing meant.

“If you don’t meet the requirements, then you need to ask yourself why you don’t meet them,” Ye Tianming said. “Is it because the boss is deliberately making things difficult? Or is the boss too greedy and unwilling to provide the corresponding benefits?”

"If so, then you might want to change jobs. Out with the old, in with the new."

"Don't look back and think about whether the next job will be worse."

"The world is neither as bad as you think, nor as good as you think."

"Of course, my advice is not to rush into quitting. First, look for a better job. If you do, then quit your current one without hesitation."

"People strive for higher positions, water flows downhill; nothing is permanent."

"The saying 'change leads to progress' applies here."

"Of course, if you ask me how an ordinary person can work hard to become rich?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yaqing also looked intently at Ye Tianming.

She also wanted to know the answer to this question.

How can an ordinary person work hard to have a chance to become rich?

Seeing her like this, Ye Tianming smiled and said, "First of all, it depends on how you define a rich person."

"It must be at least tens of millions."

Ling Yaqing said.

“Okay, so let’s say you have a net worth of fifty million, which makes you a wealthy person,” Ye Tianming said. “Then how does an ordinary person earn a net worth of fifty million?”

"We exclude those lucky ones who were born in a good era and happened to be born at a good time; let's talk about the general public."

"If these people want to become rich through their own efforts, then they must first study hard during their student years, get into a good university, and enter a good major."

"Then, after graduation, find a job that matches your major, preferably a large company where you can learn something."

"In this way, after three or four years of training, you will basically have a thorough understanding of your industry."

"At this point, you can start thinking about getting a raise. You can choose to stay with your current company, but it's best to switch jobs."

"If an employee wants a raise, the best way, assuming they have the ability, is to change jobs."

"We assume that this person works hard enough and has an above-average learning ability."

“Then, give him five years, and becoming a manager in the company will not be a problem.”

"Ten years to become a department head, is that a fair outcome?"

"Unless you encounter deliberate obstruction, it is entirely possible to rise to a senior management position in the company within thirteen or fourteen years."

"The annual salary of senior management in a large company is in the millions, and with additional bonuses, it's no problem to earn three or four million a year."

"In this way, he only needs to sit for another ten years or so, and by the time he is in his fifties, he will have accumulated a net worth of fifty million."

Ye Tianming finished speaking in one breath and then looked at his young apprentice in front of him.

"But Master, isn't what you're saying a bit too idealistic?"

Ling Yaqing said with a frown.

Although she has only been working for a short time, she feels that the workplace is not as easy as her mentor described.

"I'm talking about the best-case scenario here; of course, reality is rarely that smooth sailing."

Ye Tianming said, "But if you choose the path of working, then the process I'm talking about is the best way to become rich."

"Of course, there are also some crooked ways, such as living off a woman, or using conspiracies to frame colleagues and frame leaders."

"But these are very few cases."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yaqing nodded, appearing deep in thought.

"Indeed, when everything goes smoothly, it seems that this is the only way out for working people, and the prerequisite is that they are smart enough."

Ling Yaqing nodded as if she understood.

"Master, if an ordinary person who isn't very smart, can't get into those big companies, and can only work in a factory, does that mean they have a chance to become rich?"

Ling Yaqing thought for a moment and then asked again.

“Yes,” Ye Tianming said, “but that requires luck.”

"Handsome guys can be kept men, one step at a time. Start with smaller women, and once your social circle expands, you can find better ones."

Ye Tianming said.

Ling Yaqing, “…”

She blushed and gently punched Ye Tianming.

"Master, I'm serious!"

Ye Tianming smiled. He really wanted to say that living off a woman was perfectly legitimate, and not just anyone could do it.

First, you have to be handsome enough that rich women are willing to spend money on you.

In fact, even after spending the money, they felt it was worthwhile and a great deal!

Secondly;

Your abilities must be strong enough.

Otherwise, if the rich woman isn't satisfied, she'll kick you, this pretty vase, out sooner or later.

Finally, you also need to be able to understand people's hearts.

This isn't about just being good at sweet talk.

Some wealthy women don't like sweet talk; they prefer domineering men. If you act like a lapdog, the wealthy woman will be unhappy.

Therefore, it is necessary to be able to understand people's hearts!

Those who can do the above points.

How many are there?

so;

Don't think that living off a woman is easy.

It's actually very difficult!

Oh, and one last thing.

That means you need to be in good health.

Otherwise, it can easily lead to weakness and may even shorten one's lifespan.

If things go wrong, this money could become money to buy your life!

However, Ling Yaqing clearly doesn't approve of the job of being a kept man, and thinks it's very improper.

Since that's the case, Ye Tianming decided not to say anything more.

"Seriously speaking, we can only wait."

He said.

"Waiting for what?" Ling Yaqing pressed.

"Wait for an opportunity," Ye Tianming said. "Every era has its share of opportunities. When an opportunity comes, if you seize it, even if you're a pig, you can fly in that opportunity!"

"Ah! Doesn't that mean there's a lot of uncertainty?"

Ling Yaqing understood; she comprehended her master's meaning.

But it was precisely because she understood that she felt even more helpless.

When people come later, the concept of a "hot trend" becomes quite obvious.

For example, some stocks Ye Tianming invested in in his previous life, or some future big shots he invested in, or virtual currencies, etc.
