One day, I went to take a taxi. More than 70% of the people in Taipei knew me, so I was very disciplined in Taipei, always walking on the right side and not smoking while walking. The taxi driver was listening to classical Music, which happened to be the only Chopin I could accept and like at that Time. I was happy. He saw me in the rearview mirror. I said, “That’s Chopin. He said yes. He said, “Hello director, I often think that if I ever meet you, I must tell you a story. I said, “Sure, you tell it. He said, you can think of it as me talking to myself.
His storytelling skills were not very good, he said he had a very good girlfriend in college, the class thought they would get married. After he graduated from college he went into the military and his girlfriend worked for a foreign company and did very well.
After he was discharged from the military, his girlfriend said why don’t we start a small company together, because she knows a lot of customers and has a lot of experience in the process of working in foreign companies. The two of us started doing it. The man was from this province and his girlfriend was from Hunan. Her mother was a good cook and she used to take him back and her mother would cook him a very good meal.
Later, the business became bigger and bigger, from two people to more than a dozen people. The daughter of one of his clients went on a business trip to Malaysia with him, and the two of them slept together. When the client found out, he must be responsible. At that time, he knew that this client was a very big client, and it was good to marry his daughter, because finding a good wife could save ten years of struggle.
Originally he and his girlfriend planned to reach the age of 40, the company went public, and they retired to travel around the world. But the dream is not yet complete, they broke up. His girlfriend is very good at talking, so there is no point in talking about anything else.
The only one who protested was her mother. Her mother came into the office one day at noon with a meal, and as soon as she came in there was silence. He was so scared that he stood up. Her mother just hit him in the mouth and said, “Bad boy, I’m not cooking for you anymore. And just kept crying and walked away. He said that was the most painful thing in his Life.
In fact, he wasn’t happy with his wife, there was always a sense of guilt and guilt, and he ended up divorcing. He ended up very decrepit, his business was in disarray and he was in debt. Taipei business failure often go to drive a taxi, because it is still their own boss. But the bad thing is that he often meets his former customers and will greet them and give them more money when they get out of the taxi.
Later he was in line at the airport and met none other than his girlfriend back then, very much dressed as a business elite. His first reaction was to take the sign off the back because it had his name on it.
His girlfriend came up and said straight away that she wanted to go to a private hospital in the center of Taipei. He just kept his head down, not wanting her to recognize him. The woman didn’t speak to him and started making phone calls.
The first call was Home, in a foreign country, telling her daughter not to skip ballet class because her mother wasn’t home, telling her son to remember to take his vitamin pills and to take swimming lessons.
Another call to the company in Australia, saying that she had arrived in Taipei and explaining what she had to do.
Then a call to her husband in London to say what she needs to buy.
Finally a phone call to a colleague they know together, saying I’m back, my mother is sick and needs an operation, I’ve come back especially to be with her, I’m going back soon and want to see you guys, you must bring the kids.
Then it arrived and got off. He thought, luckily, he was not recognized all the way.
Then the woman suddenly turned back, knocked on the window and asked him to roll it down. She stared at him and said, “I’ve told you how my life has changed over the past ten years, and you don’t even want to say hello to me? After speaking, she left.
The car was already driving to my company, and he still hadn’t finished half of his speech. I said it’s okay, I’ll leave after you finish. After listening, I just felt that life was tragic, but then I remembered that I suddenly felt very strong and very deep. One night when I was writing this paragraph, I felt very uncomfortable.
