After parting with her unhappily that night, time passed quietly, and a long silence fell between us, and we no longer had any contact with each other.
The two of us are like two intersecting straight lines. After a brief intersection, they gradually move away in their respective directions.
The disciplinary inspection department's investigation into 놖,껩 came to an end quietly without causing any waves, and there was no further news, like a stone sinking into the sea, with no response.
The post that caused a huge uproar was quickly forgotten in the corner of memory. As the 29th Olympic Games opened grandly in Beijing, everyone's eyes were focused on this world-renowned sporting event. Who has the time to pay attention to those trivial gossips? What's more, occasionally some idle netizens try to rehash this old story, but the relevant posts will be deleted by the platform at lightning speed, without giving the heat a chance to spread.
During the hot summer when the Olympic Games were in full swing, Zhang Pingmin and Aunt Song visited the development zone.
During the reception, the atmosphere was a little subtle. They seemed to have their mouths covered by an invisible hand, and tacitly agreed not to mention a word about Shen Mengzhao. Every eye contact and every conversation carefully avoided this sensitive topic, as if once it was brought up, it would break some fragile balance.
When their trip was coming to an end, Aunt Song went to the dormitory where Chen Mengzhao had lived, packed up her personal belongings one by one, and took them all away. At that moment, watching Aunt Song's departing back, she suddenly felt that Chen Mengzhao seemed to have appeared in her life before, and disappeared without a trace, leaving only some vague memories that inadvertently hurt her heart.
Whenever it is late at night and everything is quiet, the scenes of my past time with her always come flooding back to my mind like a tide, and my heart-wrenching longing follows her everywhere. But I know very well that this feeling has long since disappeared. I can only grit my teeth again and again, trying my best to restrain the impulse in my heart and bury my longing deep in my heart.
What's more, the trivialities of work and life came to me like a tide, and official and personal matters came one after another, making me so busy that I had no time to take care of other things. It was this busyness that became a good medicine for 놖 to temporarily forget the pain, allowing 놖 to gradually learn to live in peace with this longing in the day-to-day rush.
The scene of US President George W. Bush and his family appearing at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics seems like it happened yesterday. The image of them facing the US team with smiles on their faces and waving to them is still deeply imprinted in our memories and has not yet faded. However, the international situation was changing rapidly, and a financial crisis with a fierce momentum and global impact suddenly broke out, triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis.
September 7th is a day destined to be remembered in history. The U.S. federal government had no choice but to take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two important housing mortgage institutions, in an attempt to turn the tide and stabilize the shaky financial situation. At that time, the public still had a glimmer of hope, secretly speculating that the federal government might lend a helping hand to the troubled Lehman Brothers. But things went against their wishes. The Bush administration ultimately chose to stand idly by and let Lehman Brothers drift in the storm.
After learning the news, he called Zhang Xiaodong and had an in-depth discussion on the matter. 놖 was the first to express his opinion, 늁 analyzed: "From a financial perspective, the U.S. federal government has probably played all its cards. Even if it wants to save the country, it is unable to do anything in the face of such a huge and complex crisis."
Zhang Xiaodong pondered for a moment and expressed his opinion from a political perspective: "Hongjun, you have to consider the American people's emotions and political situation. In this crisis, the American people are extremely disgusted with the greedy rich on Wall Street. If Bush Jr. uses the hard-earned money of taxpayers to rescue the financial tycoons on Wall Street, then the Republican Party's election situation in November this year will definitely be precarious and the prospects are not optimistic."
Although we have different opinions, there is an indisputable and cruel fact before us: the financial crisis originated in the United States, like a falling domino, quickly spread to the whole world. Even China, far away on the other side of the ocean, was not spared and its economic development was hit to varying degrees.
