A paper short message shines on the world —— An overseas traveler's memory of the Year of the Ox

One quiet night, sitting in the dim light, suddenly a song sounded in my ear:

Melancholy melodies, melancholy songs and sad lyrics can't help but evoke the full homesickness hidden in my heart? As a communications veteran who has spent eight years overseas, this is the fifth Spring Festival I have spent abroad. This scene is both familiar and so different, and it is slowly accompanying me. . .

(1) Young people can go abroad bravely.

Xu Wei's slightly hoarse voice inspired me to "open my eyes" to see the world. Young hearts are unwilling to be dull and don't want to stay at home. When I was in high school, I saw the news that many China people grow vegetables abroad and live a happy farm life. Who wants to embark on a journey in a few years? .......

? Since the end of 13, I have worked and lived in four countries. In your early twenties, the whole world seems to be at your feet. During this period, I have been to many places, taken over many jobs and made many friends, which can be said to increase my experience, broaden my horizons and temper my work &; Communication skills, full of gains. The ancients said: Read thousands of books and take Wan Li Road; And I think: the road is at your feet, and there is no regret in taking a move!

? When I was in Africa, I once went to Phnom Penh, Congo. During the Chinese New Year, I went to do projects with one person, one car and one driver, which was well received by customers. Once, I just arrived in a strange country and was a stranger, so I ventured to a regional investigation point. As a result, even the police and immigration authorities made things difficult for me. From trembling to smiling, I gradually gained a big heart. In the face of customer complaints, I am also afraid that the work is not in place and the project will fail; As for the difficulty of heavy rain, petty theft and even threats on the road are commonplace. From initial fear to calm response, we can only accumulate experience ... and in many cases, it is not just complicated work that tests a person, but the need to calm down and think about the next step after being busy. Just as the Queen of Hearts in the movie Alice in Wonderland said, "You have to keep running to stay where you are", the road to growth has never been smooth, and it is worth everyone's thinking. . .

Years are similar, but years are different? . Life overseas is boring, and the Spring Festival is not a traditional festival in the host country. Celebrations are short, especially on weekdays. The management of the representative office has made a lot of efforts to make everyone have a happy and peaceful Spring Festival: festive food and red envelopes are essential, colleagues visit each other to celebrate the New Year, mahjong poker makes the New Year more interesting ... Sometimes the local chamber of commerce will organize Chinese New Year programs and so on.

? /kloc-I was in Ethiopia in 0/5, Nigeria in 0/6, Angola in 0/7 and 0/9. ...

Time flies, looking back, I found that it was six years ago at the earliest. Leaning against the window to meditate, Didi welled up in my mind: this is of course an unforgettable memory and wealth in life, but it was still young at that time, and most of them just had a lively day without much sense of participation until I came. . .

In 2020, the epidemic fell from the sky and changed the fate of many people, including me. After staying overseas for half a year, I returned to my long-lost hometown. Special chance, after changing the owner, I came to the Philippines, a new country+1! Sometimes I feel the wonder of life's fate. For example, Shen Congwen said in Xiang Xing San Ji:

? The gateway not far from the age of 30 starts a new journey, such as "Man of the Year".

65438+ 10, telecommuting for 2 months, arriving at the site in late June, new country+1. This is the eighth country I have been to. The airport, high-rise buildings, infrastructure and public security are all impressive. Compared with the African countries that have been resident before, it can be described as earth-shaking. But soon found that: never, talent is the most beautiful scenery!

The management here is young, friendly and professional. Words and deeds are always crisp and neat, such as the company's continuous progress and full of vitality.

The colleagues here are enthusiastic and dedicated. Despite the epidemic and the lack of vaccines, they still came to the front line to work without hesitation. How can such a team disrespect people and have no love? !

? There are more than 200 local employees here, many younger brothers and sisters, young and energetic. I have been to many countries and dealt with many local employees, but there is only one place-similar faces, efficient work and thoughtful service, which deserves great praise.

? After arriving here and properly arranging accommodation; Cohesion activities let everyone get familiar with it quickly and get into work smoothly.

I remember communicating with my colleagues once. What to do for the New Year's Eve? I said, I didn't expect it to be adopted. On New Year's Eve, Eight Immortals' colleagues crossed the ocean to show their cooking skills: Sichuan Lianshan Sichuan cuisine was well received, and the main points of braised pork platter were praised, such as boiled beef and boiled shrimp. People were overwhelmed. They cooked three dishes themselves ... Although this New Year's Eve dinner was eaten standing up, their inner warmth and satisfaction were unprecedented, not only because they took the time to personally prepare meals, but also because they felt full of participation; More because we are a team, we keep our word!

? The lively Spring Festival Gala, accompanied by a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, makes the taste of the year stronger and stronger. Even if you are not with your loved ones, you should pay New Year greetings through the video cloud, so that the distance is no longer far away.

? Midnight, the reserved program-let's set off fireworks outdoors. For me, this is really the first overseas Chinese New Year. Watching two barrels of fireworks explode in the sky one after another, colorful and dazzling: sometimes like stars all over the sky, sometimes like a full moon ... local people burst into applause and wonder from time to time!

? In a foreign country, watching fireworks fly, my thoughts are surging-20 years ago, I was still young, but I could cry for the ending of this sentence. Now I understand, I should cherish the present-even in the Spring Festival, at this moment away from my relatives and motherland, I still have to keep my tears in my heart and keep my smile on my face!

? Writing here, the feeling in my heart is like honey brewed for many years, overflowing.

? The paper is short and sentimental, and I can't finish the story of youth at that time, nor can I say too many ripples, and I can't finish the story of the past and the present. I stand here and look back, full of these eight years. ?

? At the moment of the epidemic, it is not easy to be too much in 2020, and overseas travelers are already sad; But after Qian Fan, we are still powerful overseas fighters! ?

? In February, 20021,I spent a happy and hopeful Spring Festival in the Year of the Ox overseas. This hope is like a road sign, pointing to the distance; This hope is like a lamp, colorful and illuminating the world!
