At that time, our ideals were great.


Recruiting in the talent market, I met many college graduates. They hesitated before the photo display rack, and I occasionally went up to take the initiative to ask.

What did you study?

news.

What kind of job are you looking for?

Work related to the news.

That can only be entered in newspapers, magazines or television stations.

but……

They want to stop talking.

Can't you find a suitable job with no counterparts?

Yes, looking for a long time job, no suitable, many companies require experience.

Their tender faces are full of grievances and helplessness.

Then, do you want to come to our house to have a look?

But if you do photography in your home, I don't understand it at all.

It doesn't matter, there are training teachers who will teach you.

How much pay?

The start may be a bit low, only the basic salary of 1800 yuan, because it is the basic salary plus commission. If you have strong adaptability and learn fast, after the correction, the salary can basically reach 3,000 yuan.

They hesitated, groaning, sighing, and said: I didn't match my major and walked to the next recruiting unit.

Not only graduates of journalism, but also English, biotech, accounting, mechanical, physical...they have the same confusion on their faces, and occasionally fill in a few resumes. Their youth has just begun, the world is waiting for them to struggle, waiting for them to write, and then fear and embarrassment begin to hinder their progress.

At that time, our ideals were great. I want to be a "Jingcheng name" in the news, and I will show up at the forefront of the incident on the TV. Of course, I want to become a chief financial officer or a financial controller in Asia. I naturally want to be a translator. Follow the national leaders to visit the country; learn Chinese is best to be a teacher at a university, or become a writer, and stand out in the style of writing; student science and technology, it is best to become the main person in charge of a scientific research project, and contribute to the development of the country. ......

In high school, the teacher asked us to write the university of our dreams on a note, sign my name, stick it on the blackboard in the classroom, and watch and encourage myself every day. After I went to college, the class teacher asked us to write our own future on the paper to establish the direction of our life. At that time, what I wrote was to become a moderator like Yang Lan. Everyone of my classmates has written their own ideals and they are very ambitious. At that time, young and frivolous, thinking that the world is at your own feet, as long as efforts can be achieved. We hold hands and encourage each other. No one laughs at anyone.

Today, I have been graduating for six years and have lost contact with many college students. Someone asked: "Is your classmates learning news?" I shook my head. "No." "These are all industries." I continued to shake my head. I really don't know, I only know that most of the female students are going home to teach each other. Most male students are doing sales, or marketing planning, or mixing in a high-end hotel, and have nothing to do with the profession. The ideals we once wrote on paper were blown away by the wind. No one remembers what we wrote at that time. How did we describe our future? We are full of confidence and full of confidence.

Tao is the most ideal and passionate one. One day, he traveled to my city and called me. I haven't seen it for 6 years. He is still a small flat head, a white T-shirt, clean jeans, and a good-spirited little tiger tooth when he laughs. We sat in a small coffee shop and talked about life after graduation. He worked hard from a sales department to a department head, then started a business and set up his own small company for a year. I rushed again, because my friend said that the medical industry made more money. He went to a beauty agency, starting with a small planner and now the marketing director, with a monthly income of tens of thousands. I remember that at that time, his ideal was to go to the TV station as a conscience reporter. Now he talks about ideals. He shook his head and smiled. Living may be more important than ideal, or the real ideal can be completed in practice. Although not working in the news circle, the fun of doing the market is quite big.

He told me the joy in the process of hard work, the excitement of overcoming one problem after another, only to understate the hard work, I listened carefully and felt really good. And I myself from a planner to a newspaper reporter, to a magazine reporter, to today's photographer, in constant challenge and temper, I gradually found the life I want and the brighter myself.

After all, the years are realistic and cruel. It is not a utopia, it is a piece of barren soil. However, as long as you sow on these soils and work hard, you can open the flowers. Your life begins with a flower, and a flower has a small garden. It is not what you have imagined, but it may be more beautiful than you think. This is your utopian, another look of the great ideals we have written.
