The girl who fell from the building, if she was not a top student of Zhejiang University, not a dragon and phoenix among people in the financial circle, without an annual salary of one million, and without buying a house on the Bund, would she still be so concerned? There are many people who jump off the building every day because of economic and family reasons, but the vast majority of people dance quietly, only the label of "Zhongjin" on her body produces a huge sense of contrast - her life is already so perfect, why can't she think about it?
The crowd tried to find a logical reason.
Some people say that it is because of CICC's salary cut, which makes her unable to afford a mortgage of 5 or 60,000 yuan per month.
Some people say that it is because she did not do a good job in family risk control, bought a property far beyond her spending power, and suffered a decline in housing prices.
Some people say that it is because she was already hormone depressed during pregnancy, and there are some conflicts within the family.
She has been a winner for the first half of her life.
She was admitted to Zhejiang University after killing thousands of troops in the college entrance examination, and was admitted to Zhu Kezhen College among the strong freshmen of Zhejiang University, and won the first-class scholarship with top3% of the excellent results in the experimental class, and went to the "UCLA Summer School" that only top students in each college are eligible to apply for, and the "Semester at Sea" program that recruits 600 people around the world.
After graduating with a bachelor's degree, he was sent to the university for a master's degree in finance, got a high-salary offer from CICC, and found a spouse with the same high income.
If these experiences have given her any knowledge of cause and effect, it is that hard work is the cause, success is the effect, as long as you put in time and sweat, you will definitely reap the rewards.
This kind of smooth exchange also makes people forget the second law, the world is impermanent, and it is not subject to human will.
Whether it is the hot financial industry, housing prices that have risen for 20 consecutive years, and the feelings of cooking oil will always be in flux.
In the upward cycle, it is the most energetic thirty years of life, in fact, it is already full of various buffs, and it is the highlight moment of ordinary people's lives. But people are often overly optimistic that there will be icing on the cake, that the engine will never go out, and that the earning power and rising speed of the moment will be used to overdraft the future life.
CICC is another place with a very special aura.
Before the pandemic, CICC employees' incomes were the highest in China's industry, with an average of 1.16 million yuan per capita.
How lonely is this sense of pride in standing at the pinnacle, even if there are thousands of styles, who to say that no one knows about the success, is that still a success?
In addition to industry news, CICC has repeatedly appeared on the social news list, all of which are related to "high income".
In the past two years, there have been two news in a row, one is that my girlfriend posted the salary slip of her boyfriend in CICC, a trader who is less than 30 years old, with a monthly salary of more than 80,000 yuan, stamped with the official seal of CICC's red and glamorous human resources, and does not hide it.
After a few days, another family member of CICC posted on Moments with a big name and a position, saying that the annual salary of a trader is 80,000 yuan, the annual salary of an investment manager is 300-5 million, and there is VIP medical care above ED.
The development of things soon taught his girlfriend what "the world is impermanent". Her original intention of showing off her husband on the Internet was to make everyone envious and jealous that she had found a good boyfriend and praised herself for being rich and wealthy in the world, but the people who were losing money were angry, we cried and grabbed the ground, and the trader ate meat at home.
Zhongjin saw that public opinion was surging, and hurriedly issued an announcement to suspend her boyfriend, she not only failed to show off her husband, but also caused her husband to lose his job, which is called not being transferred by people's will.
Four years later, the general environment has changed, in the 23-year CICC financial report, the annual salary of the board members and executives who used to be tens of millions of dollars has also become more than 2 million, and in the 2024 Q1 financial report, ordinary employees have been reduced to an average of 35,000 (it is said that because the year-end bonus is not placed in Q1), the voice of showing off wealth is gone, and the voice of bitterness is louder.
Netizens on Weibo are very angry, 30,005 is called life unbearable, and our 3,005 are still tenaciously alive.
In fact, they are really not hypocritical, because in the past, the monthly salary was more than 100,000 yuan, and buying a house of 150,000 square meters was also in line with consumption power.
But they may be confused by the upward cycle, and having such success is not only due to their own ability, but also because we are all people who are racing on the fast-moving giant wheel, once the speed of the giant wheel slows down, you are as fast as Bolt, and it is just a drop in the bucket.
They are the triple winners of academics, careers, and mate selection priorities, and they have little opportunity in their lives to learn how to face failures in their careers and marriages, and how to survive in the gloomy days.
As a 21-year-old girl, she spent 4 months on a cruise ship across four continents and three oceans, learning with elite classmates and teachers from all over the world. She wrote in her personal public account: I discovered that this world is all-encompassing, and life is infinite because of this.
At that time, she was full of enthusiasm for her future life, and she would never have imagined that at the age of 30, she would lose hope that there would be any possibilities in this world and end her life early. But the 21-year-old understands the "infinite possibilities", just like the luxury cruise ship she is on, collecting the best things in the world and floating on the sea, like a vacuum dream.
When real life began to show "infinite possibilities", I realized that it also had another hideous face, called "impermanence".
