Chapter 393: Avoid the Consumption Trap

After hearing Xu Wen's introduction of Tan Ming, netizens in the live broadcast room also sighed.

"We had a brother like this in college. You can tell at a glance that some people are different from us. They have ambitions and dreams, unlike us who live like maggots all day long. I can only say that people are really incomparable."

"I have a buddy who is like that. When we were in college, we would play games all night long. But after he started working, he became a completely different person. All he thinks about is overtime and work. Now it's harder than climbing a mountain to see him."

"The friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water. In fact, if the relationship is very good, there is no need to see each other every day. Just like me and my good brothers, we rarely have the opportunity to see each other every day, but every time we meet, we can still talk very well and don't feel any estrangement or anything like that."

Many people live their entire lives without knowing what true friendship is.

But many people see it very clearly, such as Xu Wen.

When there is nothing to do on weekdays, Xu Wen will not disturb Tan Ming.

After all, Tan Ming has to be busy with his own career. He also has his own employees and friends to lead, and his own projects to follow up.

However, when Xu Wen finds an opportunity to help Tan Ming, he will still think of Tan Ming first and lend him a hand.

Otherwise, Xu Wen would not have brought Liu Wenwen to see Tan Ming as soon as he heard Liu Wenwen say she wanted to invest. Isn't this the meaning of being good brothers?
"Brother Xu, are we going back directly now?"

Xu Wen stretched and said, "Let's go for a walk by the river. I haven't been out shopping for a long time. President Zhao and Sun Ya are drinking and chatting. If I go back, they will only feel uncomfortable."

Hearing Xu Wen say this, Zheng Yue found it somewhat rare.

After all, Xu Wen was a notoriously lazy person who would never sit at home unless he could lie down. But now he actually took the initiative to propose to take a walk outside.

Xu Wen shook a cigarette out of the cigarette box, put it in his mouth, and prepared to smoke while walking along the river, enjoying the evening breeze of the city.

Who knew that he had only taken a few steps when he saw a man holding flowers, hiding behind a tree, looking towards a hotel in the distance.

When Zheng Yue saw this scene, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Brother Xu, it seems like someone wants to confess their love, how about we take a look?"

Xu Wen said calmly: "What's so good about confessions? People confess every day. If you were in college, you would feel like vomiting after hearing so many confessions."

Zheng Yue said with a puzzled look on her face: "Brother Xu, don't you think this kind of confession is very romantic and exciting?"

Xu Wen shook his head and said, "I don't think so. On the contrary, why do you think this is such a romantic and exciting thing?"

"Please think about it carefully. Dating is something between the two of you, but young people nowadays are always expressing their love in public, as if they would feel happy if they receive blessings from others. But are they really doing it for the sake of receiving blessings from others? Isn't it just for show, to satisfy their own vanity?"

Xu Wen's words stunned Zheng Yue. Zheng Yue had never thought about the reasoning behind this carefully before.

She just subconsciously felt that someone confessing their love was a very romantic and exciting thing.

But now hearing what Xu Wen said, it seems to make sense.

Dating is a matter between two people, why do you need others to witness your love?

Does it mean that your love will not be happy without someone witnessing it?
Xu Wen continued, "In fact, you can't be blamed entirely for having such an illusion. You are also the one who was misled."

"Think about the movies and TV series you watch now. As long as they are about love, do they all have the confession part? And when you see the confession, are the atmosphere and music of the movie or TV series particularly well done, so that you feel very moved after watching it, as if two people have finally achieved a happy ending?"

"This is actually what the bosses want them to think, because if you don't think confessing your love is a romantic thing, then who will buy the flowers? Who will wear the wedding dress? Who will take the wedding photos?"

All the netizens in the live broadcast room nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I have also discovered this problem. I feel that the influence of capital on us is now reflected in all aspects. When have we ever heard of this festival or that festival before? But now there are all kinds of festivals, and they are not festivals to commemorate some great days, but various consumption festivals."

"Hahaha, I can relate to this. When I was with my ex-girlfriend, she liked to emphasize the sense of ceremony the most. If I didn't buy her a gift on a holiday, it meant there was no sense of ceremony. If something I did wasn't romantic enough, it also meant there was no sense of ceremony. In short, the word sense of ceremony has been overused by them."

"After all, isn't it because it's easier to make money from women? If I must say, it's because these big bosses have seen through human nature and know that men may not be willing to spend money on themselves, but they are definitely willing to spend money on women. Otherwise, why do you think there are so many shopping festivals nowadays?"

"You're wrong. Men are awake now. Most men are no longer willing to spend money on women. They are willing to spend money on themselves. Wouldn't it be nice if I spent thousands of dollars to buy a graphics card? Why do I have to spend thousands of dollars to travel or have a meal? Isn't this just a waste of time?"

Most of the netizens in the live broadcast room are no longer willing to pay for women.

Because in their opinion it's not worth it.

Most women have fallen into the consumption trap. They completely ignore their own economic level and only think about consumption and enjoyment.

And they can easily apply the plots in movies and TV series to themselves.

I think that women in TV dramas wear wedding dresses when they get married, so I should also wear a wedding dress when I get married.

I feel that since women in movies and TV shows have been confessed to by others, then I must be confessed to at least once in my life, otherwise it would be as if I have never lived my life seriously.

Seeing that Zheng Yue was so interested in seeing someone confess their love, Xu Wen simply stopped and waited to see what would happen next.

Xu Wen stared at the man for a while, then said with a smile: "You can tell he has no experience. This must be his first time in love. First time love like this usually ends in tragedy."
