Dear friends, young and old, girls and aunts - I am not going to tell you a new story today, let's talk about something real today. During this period of time, our own author, Mr. Fu Shuiheng, wrote five stories in one breath, each one more absurd than the last, more hilarious than the last, and each one more interesting than the last, making people still have something left in their hearts after laughing. Today I will break down the highlights of these five stories and share them with you to see if they are worth your time. --- The first story: "Exiting from Mainstream Life" The beginning of this story is explosive - "The dead man! The coffin board can't hold it down!" Lin Shen rolled out of the ancestral house of Fu Shuiheng's family early in the morning, with one and a half slippers flying off his feet, and the expression on his face looked like he had seen a ghost. What's going on? Fang Kele's living treasure changed the old uncle's birthday coffin into a "face-to-face life and death experience" project, allowing tourists from the city to lie down in the coffin and experience the feeling of death. As a result, a pale arm stretched out from the coffin! Two top students from Tsinghua University and Fudan University were so frightened that Lin Shen fainted. Finally, old uncle Shui Heng opened the coffin lid and took a look - the big reed hen from Lao Wang's house next door was nesting inside and laying eggs! The chicken's paws were illuminated by a flashlight in the dark and became "ghost hands"; the sound of chickens pecking at the coffin became "knocking sounds". This misunderstanding can make people laugh out loud. But after you laugh, you can touch it again - the book "Original Heart" that Fang Cole stole from the secret compartment of the coffin. It says, "The suffering of the world is due to the persistence of the mainstream way." It also says that people are implanted with "standard templates" by society throughout their lives. This is not haunted, this is disturbing! Two talented students who had been laid off by a big company were doing so many tricks in the countryside. After all, didn't they just want to withdraw from the "standard template"? --- The second story: "Exit Cost Calculation" After Lin Shen fainted during the coffin experience incident, he lay there for three days and three nights. The first words he said when he woke up were not "Where am I" or "What's wrong with me", but - "I've calculated the cost of quitting." In a coma, this Master of Economics from Fudan University counted all the options he had to "quit" from childhood to adulthood: quit painting at the age of seven, and the cost was that he would never be able to draw a decent straight line in his life; quit puppy love at the age of fifteen, and the cost was that he still doesn't know how to get along with the opposite sex normally; quit teaching at the age of 22, and the cost was that he would spend the next ten years doing things he didn't like. In the end, he came to a shocking conclusion - the cost of staying in the mainstream system is a full forty-seven times higher than the cost of exiting! The two hit it off immediately and created an "Exit Cost Calculator" applet, which became very popular. Someone typed "exit marriage" in the search box, someone was calculating "exit the chicken group", and an old man typed "exit the earth", which made Fang Kele laugh so much that he almost fell off his chair. The most amazing thing is that old uncle Shui Heng was roped in as a guinea pig. He entered "Do you want to quit the chess club?" And the calculated result was 68 points. He suggested waiting and watching. The old uncle exposed the algorithm in one sentence - "How did you calculate 68 points? Why not?" It's 67, why not 69? You decide the rules and you decide whether it's a good deal or not. But this is my own business. I don't know whether it's a good deal or not." These words made people laugh and then fell silent. --- The third story: "Withdrawal from the Assistance Organization" After the withdrawal cost calculator became popular, a problem arose - users left messages saying, "I have settled the account clearly, but I still dare not withdraw", "I know that the benefits of withdrawal are greater, but my parents broke off the relationship if they said they resigned." Fang Kele and Lin Shenyi worked together to set up a "mutual aid meeting for those who dropped out", where they met in person, communicated face-to-face, and there was no judgment, no suggestions, and no fees. The first session was held under the grapefruit tree in Fu Shuiheng's yard, and thirty people came. Chen, an elite investment banker with a seven-figure annual salary, said that he was stuck on the viaduct every morning while driving, and what he thought in his mind was, "It would be great if I had a myocardial infarction now, at least I don't have to drive that stretch of road anymore." There is a seventy-three-year-old Uncle Zhou. He spent the first twenty years of his life listening to his parents, the middle forty years to his work unit, and the last twenty years to his children. Now he finally wants to listen to himself. There is Xiao Gu, a girl who wants to make bread but is scolded by her whole family as a loser, and Jing Jing, who has quit all social platforms and finds that she suddenly has too much time and doesn't know how to spend it. Thirty people pass a bamboo tube with flowers, and thirty stories are thrown into the lake like thirty stones. But the most heartbreaking thing came - a woman named Shen Zhiyi asked Fang Cola: "Can you help people exit their memories?" There was a long and slender scar behind her ear, extending from her earlobe to the back of her neck. The answer to this question was not given until the end of the story, but the three questions that the old uncle asked Fang Cola are worthy of everyone asking themselves in their hearts: "Do you really want to help people or have you become addicted to being a leader? Can you afford it if someone is worse off because they quit? Why did you quit?" --- The fourth story: "The Gathering of Those Who Quit" The Mutual Aid Association reached its fifth phase, and the number of applicants increased from 30 to 327. When the registration channel was finally closed, 600 people were confirmed. Six hundred quitters flocked to Chixi Village from all over the world - Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Chengdu, Beijing, and Ili, Xinjiang. The furthest ones took more than ten hours of driving. A wooden platform was set up on the large lawn outside the ancestral hall, covered with an old red carpet borrowed from a wedding shop in the town. There were various chairs on the platform - rattan chairs, wooden stools, plastic back chairs, and a waiting chair borrowed from the village clinic. There was also a "Please do not make noise" label on the armrest. Fang Kele said: "Our conference has no unified standard from the beginning of the chairs. Just like the withdrawals, everyone is different." Six hundred people listened to each other's stories on the grain drying field. No one lowered their head to check their mobile phones, and no one whispered to each other. Someone cried and said that she was besieged on the day she quit the parent group and was "unworthy of being a mother." It was the children who hugged her and said, "Mom is happy." Someone laughed and said that after quitting weight loss, he ate a whole tiramisu the next day, "That was the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life." Uncle Shui Heng was called to the stage by hundreds of people in unison, and he said something earth-shattering - "The key is not whether to retreat or not, but whether you move forward after retreating, or squat in a different place." At the end of the show, Fang Cola asked everyone to stand up, look for a stranger to shake hands, and said, "You are not alone." Lin Shen stood aside and watched this scene, and said something that made people feel a little bit in their hearts: "I finally know what a gathering of quitters is - not gathering together to complain, nor looking for a way out, but gathering together to confirm one thing, it turns out that I am not a defective product." The bonfire reflected six hundred faces, some played the harmonica out of tune, some danced impromptu, and some just sat there quietly breathing. This conference had no guests, no media, no sponsors, just a group of people who were judged as "unqualified" by mainstream standards, holding each other's hands under the old camphor tree in the mountain village of western Fujian. --- The fifth story: This series is not over yet. The threads buried in the first four stories are still waiting for Mr. Fu Shuiheng to pull them out one by one - what exactly is written in the article "That Day" on Shen Zhiyi's USB flash drive? Can the woman with the scar behind her ear exit her memory? Does Meng Zhiyuan, the person who engages in social impact investing, sincerely endorse the quitter movement, or does he regard the quitters as a new investment target? Will Fang Kele and Lin Shen's "Exiter Mutual Aid Association" be hijacked by capital? How many unknown secrets are hidden in the second half of "Original Heart" in the old uncle's coffin? And the mainstream life science and technology side, after being implanted with a small gift by Fang Keke using the "original code", will they let it go? Mr. Fu Shuiheng has dug these pits for us, and we are just waiting for you to sound the creative charge and urge him to bring up the following stories! --- Dear friends, each of the five stories is an independent story that can be read by picking it up; but when strung together, it is a complete big story - about how two "losers" who were eliminated by the mainstream standards of society built a utopia for the "quitters" bit by bit in a mountain village in western Fujian, using taro buns and flowered bamboo tubes, old camphor trees and grain drying fields, Hakka dialect and absurd humor. There is no success story, no chicken soup, and no experts who tell you how to live. In the story, there is only a group of people who do not want to live according to the template. They sit under the grapefruit tree in the autumn sunshine and confirm each other's existence. Okay, enough words.

Finally, Mr. Fu Shuiheng asked my grandpa to pass a message to him - "Dear dear friends, thank you. You took the time to read these things written by grandpa. I feel very grateful to you. Grandpa has no other skills, so he can steam taro buns and tell stories. If you like it, grandpa will continue to steam and continue talking." Okay, the meeting is over! The taro buns are still hot, so go eat two before coming back. ——User 26182811, your own Mr. Fu Shuiheng is waiting for you under the old camphor tree in Chixi Village.
