[quote=BBQQ,456855]Why do I start this vote? Last weekend, I stayed at home and watched a very popular Chinese TV play called ‘Beijing Love Story’. In this TV play, Shi Xiaomeng, a man from a remote village in Yunnan Province, broke up with his lovely girl Shen Bing for the position of general manager in a listed company. Shi Xiaomeng and Shen Bing are childhood sweethearts. He works in Beijing after graduation and pays all his money to buy a small apartment for him and Shen Bing. His life isn’t smooth. He has encountered too many difficulties. The cruel reality forces him to believe that he can never compete with those who were born in a rich family no matter how hard he works. Eventually, he gives up and chooses to take a shortcut. His best friend Cheng Feng is from a rich family. One day, he saw Xiaomeng’s girlfriend Shen Bing and had a crush on her. Shi Xiaomeng knew this. Thus, he accepts a deal from his best friend’ father that he gains the position of general manager on condition that he breaks up with his girl and never sees her. In a word, a man defeated by the cruel reality gives up his love for money. What is the reality? Love is a luxurious thing for a poor man. Without money, girls even do not look at you. Even you are tighter at this moment, she might be lured by someone and leave you someday. Like someone in the Beijing Love Story said, “A poor college student is disqualified to talk about love.” Once someone asked me a question “What will you choose between ‘bread’ and ‘love’?” I answered quickly “Love. Because I will die without love even I have many pieces of ‘bread.’” If someone asks me this question again, I really do not know what to choose. Why? The reality is too cruel. Without love, we still can live. Without bread, we will starve to death. Will you give up your love for ‘bread’? [/quote]
