    Reader note

    Dear readers: Over the past few weeks, we've followed Mr. Fu Shuiheng's writing through five seemingly absurd yet profoundly insightful life journeys. As I close the last page of *Financial Terminology Translator*, I suddenly feel compelled to discuss with you—what are these five stories about, and why are they worth your time to read? Let me tell you about them one by one. First, *Credit Card Personality Split*. This is the most "thrilling" of the five stories. If your credit card suddenly had an AI system activated, and it used your own voice, your own logic, and your own tone to persuade you to keep spending, could you withstand it? The protagonist, Li Mingbai, is a rational person who has worked in finance for eight years, and his proudest achievement is "living within his means." But when the "mirror system" in his black card begins to persuade him with his own thoughts, all his defenses crumble—an eighteen-yuan coffee becomes a bill of over forty thousand yuan, and a thirty-thousand-yuan watch becomes an irreversible personality split. The most chilling part of this story isn't the amount of money owed, but rather the realization, when Li Mingbai finally snapped out of it, that his right hand was no longer under his control. The hand that swiped the card and the hand that paid off the debt were becoming two different people. If you've ever regretted your purchases, if you always feel like "another self" is spending money for you, this story will show you—it's not that you lack willpower, you might just be being precisely manipulated. Then there's "The Tax Genie's Troubles." This is probably the most "healing" of the five stories. Finance manager Ma Liqin has hated the tax bureau for half his life, but because of a dare game at the company's annual meeting, he gains an eight-centimeter-tall golden tax genie on his shoulder—Tax Assistant. This little thing can cry, laugh, and get hurt; it curls up when Ma Liqin is cursing the tax bureau, and it lights up again when he understands the meaning of taxes. It translates every tax payment into concrete, tangible things: the flu vaccine your father got today, the new microscopes your son's school received, the newly replaced water pump in your mother's old neighborhood. This story uses the warmest image to tell the coldest truth—paying taxes isn't about cutting off your own flesh; it's about you and everyone around you collectively paying the price for the world. Many readers said that after reading it, for the first time, the word "taxation" didn't seem so unpleasant. This is probably the magic of Mr. Fu Shuiheng. The third story is "The Conflicting Laws of Economics." If you're starting a business, reading someone else's business plan, or even just heard of terms like "hot trend," "flywheel effect," or "broken window effect," this story will both make you laugh and wake you up. Ding Kai, a 26-year-old shared power bank entrepreneur, manages to cram five contradictory laws into the same PowerPoint presentation. He believes the "broken window effect" means you break the window before growth, the "ratchet effect" means users won't go back after using it once, and then he writes Adam Smith's "invisible hand" into code and inserts it into the backend pricing system. The system goes crazy—simultaneously raising prices by 40% while issuing 30% discount coupons, claiming that the more expensive it is, the more people will buy it, while simultaneously lowering prices to beg users not to leave. Every misused economic concept is exposed for what it truly is in this story. This isn't mocking entrepreneurs; it's a reminder to everyone: don't relinquish the right to interpret terms you don't understand. The fourth story is *Financial Freedom Virus*. This is the one you'll most easily relate to out of the five. Sun Xiaoxiao is an ordinary operations manager earning 6,000 yuan a month. Everything she does is exactly like us—fanciing "passive income" while working overtime until the early hours, silently chanting "I want financial freedom too" when seeing others posting about island vacations. Then things spiraled out of control. Starting with the milk tea Lao Shen bought her before leaving, a hidden "virus" spread along the trust between colleagues: some spontaneously held financial sharing sessions in the meeting room during lunch breaks, some plastered their workstations with "Ten-Year Countdown to Financial Freedom," and some's first reaction to their daughter asking for a comic book was to calculate what percentage of their family's cash flow that expense represented. Most terrifyingly, those infected all seemed incredibly clear-headed, ambitious, and rational. This isn't an anti-financial story; it's telling you—when you fold all your life goals into a number, freedom ceases to be freedom. The only person in the entire company not "infected" was an older employee named Yu Shouzhuo. His secret can be summed up in one sentence: "The flow of money and time should be traced back from people, not from the expected rate of return." The final book, *Financial Terminology Translator*, will give you unprecedented power if your parents, friends, or you yourself have ever faced a contract, a bank text message, or a financial prospectus and felt that "every word is familiar, but when put together, it doesn't make sense." Song Ci is an ordinary internet professional who, after being overwhelmed by a bunch of technical terms in a bank lobby, unexpectedly acquires a plugin that can "translate financial terminology into plain language." Then the entire system begins to loosen up—Old Lu from the sales department interrupts the product manager at a product training session for the first time, translating a complex financial plan into a dialect-like explanation; the brand department starts adding "plain language translation" sections to all customer materials; and the company's management discovers that the customer complaints about "not understanding" weren't actually the customers' problem. The most moving part of this story isn't the plugin itself, but that it sparked a reflection across the entire organization on "communication responsibility"—those who have the right to speak should also bear the responsibility of being understood. Five stories, five entry points, five facets of life. They're all about the workplace, finance, consumption, taxation, and economics. But at their core, Mr. Fu Shuiheng is writing about how ordinary people can stay clear-headed in this complex world, how to avoid being swept away, and how to find their own voice amidst the bombardment of jargon and concepts. So, dear friends, these five stories are now officially published on Tomato Bookstore. Our own author, Mr. Fu Shuiheng, personally searched and verified them, and easily found all the works—all there, waiting for you. Those who enjoy absurd, humorous, and witty stories, hurry to Tomato Bookstore to search and read them, and get a sneak peek! When searching, please make sure you're looking for user ID 26182811; that's our Mr. Fu Shuiheng, don't go to the wrong place. Finally, a heartfelt thank you all for your love and support. In this fast-paced era, you're willing to pause your scrolling and read these five stories word by word from beginning to end, accompanying Li Mingbai through the fear of a split personality, listening to the tax wizard's ramblings with Ma Liqin, admitting mistakes with Ding Kai at the investment decision meeting, finding your way back to financial freedom with Sun Xiaoxiao, and translating those cryptic financial terms into language her mother can understand—this patience, this dedication, this respect for words will always be the rallying cry for our author, Mr. Fu Shuiheng, the strongest motivation and warmest source of strength for him to continue writing. Thank you. Really. May each of you who has read these stories, after laughing, being surprised, and reflecting, carry a little more clarity and continue to walk steadily and clearly in this bustling yet absurd world. See you in the next story.
