I believe everyone has a different answer.
But it is undeniable that nowadays, material things have made some love unpalatable.
1 1 years ago, a girl publicly said, "I would rather cry on a BMW than laugh on a bicycle."
When this statement came out, it caused a lot of controversy.
The girl also became an instant hit and became a typical representative of the "gold digger".
She's Mano.
Now 1 1 years have passed. What happened to Mano? Has her dream come true?
Is Mano really a "gold digger"?
After reading her life experience, I found that her "money worship" is traceable.
From 65438 to 0988, Mano was born in a shabby old alley in Beijing.
Mano's parents have no education, so they can only use what little savings they have at home to open a fruit stand in a downtown area. The whole booth does not exceed two square meters. In the vast Beijing, without background and financial support, the pressure of life can be imagined.
It was because of family embarrassment that Mano's childhood was very shabby. Other girls' childhood is a fairy tale, but hers is bleak.
Besides, my mother often shaves Mano's head just to keep her as a boy. Similarly, in order to save money, her clothes are often simple, and old clothes and dusty appearance are her whole childhood.
Whenever I see my peers wearing flowered skirts and dressed like princesses, Mano is very envious and secretly swears in my heart that I must wear the most beautiful clothes when I grow up and live like a princess.
Mano, who was born in poverty, was destined to rely on himself if he wanted to rewrite his destiny.
After graduating from high school, she was admitted to Beijing Modern Conservatory of Music. In order to realize financial freedom as soon as possible, Mano began to take some auto shows and other jobs after graduation.
But because there is no fame and the appearance fee is not high, it is completely extravagant to realize the ideal life.
At the poorest time, Mano's bank card contained only 1400 yuan. Because she has no money, she can only live with her cousin and live a humble life.
At this time, Mano, who was down and out, understood the importance of money.
Because he was afraid of poverty when he was a child, and because the road to success was too difficult, Mano wanted to take a shortcut. The quickest way was to meet a rich man and reach the peak of his life through marriage.
However, it is not easy for a girl from the bottom to jump into the upper class. It was not until 20 10 that Mano waited for the opportunity to turn over.
That year, Mano, a female guest in the national sea election of If You Are the One, signed up and was finally selected.
Mano, 22, is young and beautiful and outspoken. Not long after the program was broadcast, Mano became the most concerned person in the audience, showing his personality among many girls.
In previous programs, her poisonous tongue made many male guests feel ashamed.
The sharp tongue in the early stage is Mano's label in the program, which is acceptable to the audience. Then her later remarks were directly criticized as distorted values.
Here's the thing. In a program, a "poor boy" who likes cycling wanted to hold hands with Mano and asked her if she would like to ride with him. Mano flatly refused, and said her "words of wisdom":
I would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bike.
From this, it is conceivable that Mano's name has been closely tied with "I would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle" and has been labeled as a "gold digger", which has attracted crusade and abuse from the whole network.
If there are more dirty words, the program will naturally become popular.
So that in later programs, as long as Mano appeared, the ratings would soar, and the program groups who tasted the sweetness began to pay attention to and package Mano.
In a certain program, in order to strike while the iron is hot and keep the program hot, the director group also specially "designed" a scene in which a male guest took the stage to scold Mano.
The male guest really shot Mano in front of all the guests and hosts:
"You shouldn't stay here. You should take part in the beauty contest, because the people sitting below are either rich or expensive. Don't say you cry in a BMW, it's okay for you to have a runny nose in a Porsche. "
When this attack came out, it was full of gunpowder, and the audience were expecting how Mano would fight back. Unexpectedly, Mano, who has always been poisonous, was uncharacteristically this time. She left the stage silently with a cry, "Actually, I'm not what everyone thinks.".
Only the consternation of the audience and the "unfinished" of the male guests were left.
As expected, the ratings of this program naturally hit a new high.
However, after Mano was "angered" by the male guests, there was no excessive speech or behavior, which was really low-key.
After that, she chose to go with an ordinary-looking male guest. It seems that Mano, who has settled down, temporarily quelled the audience's crusade against her.
Later, Mano chose to leave if you are the one, a troublesome place.
After many disasters, she didn't get away with it, and criticism still surrounded her. Later, she said publicly:
"The focus of that sentence is not on the BMW. I just want to express women's desire for a better life. I don't think this is wrong. "
But this can't fill the impact she has brought to people's values, and all the explanations seem to be in vain.
In fact, in the early days when he was called the "gold digger", Mano didn't care about the external evaluation.
On the contrary, because of these controversies and abuses, Mano gained both fame and fortune.
At that time, Mano was in the limelight after winning the position of "gold digger", and some variety circles also threw olive branches to her.
In this way, Mano, who has no seniority background, suddenly changed from an unknown little model to a celebrity with a price comparable to that of a second-tier star through the program "If You Are the One" and successfully signed a TV station.
And with the popularity at that time, in the month of 20110, Mano starred in the micro film Little Girl, and released his first music album "I miss it" in the same month.
Then, on 20 12, Mano once again participated in "Love" in buff, making a guest appearance as "Sister Freckle" and "Movie Song" blossomed simultaneously.
In fact, after being labeled as a "BMW girl", Mano began to gain fame and fortune, and his career gradually improved. There is only one step left from online celebrity to artist.
However, just when everyone thought Mano would get more and more angry, she suddenly disappeared.
Perhaps public opinion misunderstood Mano too much, or the speech of "Mano worships money" was so popular that it was quickly banned by radio and television, so that her scenes, whether movies or advertisements, were deleted.
The hype made Mano a celebrity, but at the same time, this outrageous behavior also doomed her not to go too far.
In fact, from 20 13, Mano's popularity began to decline, but in the end, all this fame and fortune disappeared too quickly.
What was finally left to Mano was no longer the constant invitation of film and television programs, but the dullness after the fire. The label of "gold digger" has always been attached to her.
It is not difficult to see that while giving her a bonus, the program also planted the seeds of disillusionment, and its success and decline lasted only two years.
Mano didn't get on the BMW and didn't get what he really wanted. The fragile fame and fortune is in sharp contrast with the status quo.
Looking back on her fame, I don't know how Mano will feel, but what is certain is that it was a highlight moment in her life on the stage of If You Are the One.
A few years later, Mano's comment area in Weibo is still full of countless abuse.
"Let's see if you got on the BMW?"
"You are so ugly that you have the face to sit in a BMW."
Unbearable, from 2065438 to February 2009, Mano suddenly exposed the inside story of "money worship" nine years ago in Weibo.
Mano said: "The female guests who went to If You Are the One were not looking for someone, but regarded going on stage as a job."
She also said that her rejection of male guests was arranged by the director group, and if what she said was inappropriate, the program group could completely cut it off and not broadcast it. She also said that the turtle rich second generation she refused at that time was also a manifestation. ...
At the end of Weibo, Mano bluntly said: "The most profound thing I learned was to treat others as good people, so I was cheated miserably, such as me."
After the truth came out, some people chose to forgive her outspoken and frivolous, but others felt that her money worship and hypocrisy had not changed.
In fact, when he conspired with the program group for fame and fortune, it was doomed that Mano would pay the price for his choice.
For Mano, if you say something when you are young, you may really have to follow her all your life.
In the past two years, Mano's news has been exposed occasionally. She was photographed with a rich man and going out with a Ferrari man late at night. Others broke the news that she married a foreign man, but no matter how the outside world guessed, Mano did not respond.
However, through social platforms, we can see that Mano is not doing badly. She has her own life, and traveling and painting have become a part of her life.
Although it is no longer sought after by people, it is no longer faced with overwhelming abuse. It is also an unforgettable memory that I have experienced all kinds of right and wrong in the flashy entertainment circle and have not lost myself because of the hollow reputation.
Now, back to real life, she is no different from ordinary girls. Beneath the sweet appearance, she looks quiet and kind.
In the past, Mano, who worships money and has a sharp edge, finally learned to reconcile with himself, began to precipitate himself, and managed his life with heart.
Judging from her daily dynamics, 33-year-old Mano is still single, but it can be seen that she is still looking forward to her true love, just more calm than before.
For today, it is not so important for her to be a bicycle or a BMW for the rest of her life, because she already has her own BMW by virtue of her own ability.
In the BMW you bought, you may not laugh, but you will not cry.
Whether the past is right or wrong, maybe she will continue to pay for it, but when everything is over, it will eventually become the past, and living the present is the best choice. Text/Xia Ge
