I interviewed Jiang, a 45 years old man. He has a static work, a 17 year-old daughter and a beautiful wife. He also has many friends, and he consider one of them, let’s name him A, as his best friend. Jiang believes that A is go-getter, and A often gives him constructive feedback to his confusion about investment. Jiang prefers to stay with A, they always have comfortable conversations and feel relax with each other. Sometimes they go to tea-house together after work, sometimes they go fishing together. At one time, when they were enjoying their meal, Jiang told A that he considered A as his best friend and brother. At the same time, A told Jiang that he was glad to hear what Jiang said, and he considered Jiang as his brother too. They both hope to enjoy the life with the help of each other.
No man is an island: men in relationships. As a common man, Jiang has a family relationship with his daughter and wife, a working relationship with his supervisor and colleagues, and a friendship with his best friend and friends. Broadly speaking, Every man has a Series of relationships, because people are members of a variety of social system and are dependent on others for information, resources support and human contact, just as Chinese adage says that a good man has three gangs.
