Guo Yu, a 28 year old programmer with financial freedom, is more free this year after retirement?

如果你年轻，经济自由，你会怎么做？

If you were young and financially free, what would you do?

一年前，90后程序员郭宇在社交媒体上发布了一封辞职信，宣布他"28岁退休"。在此之前，他毕业于政治和行政专业，自学代码，进入支付宝，创业，公司被收购。。。。。。

A year ago, Guo Yu, a post-90s programmer, released a resignation letter on social media, announcing that he "retired at the end of 28". Prior to that, he graduated from the political and administrative profession, he taught himself the code, entered Alipay, entrepreneurship, the company was bytes beating acquisition......

郭瑜关于28岁退休的文章在互联网上引起了激烈的争论

Guo Yu's article on retirement at the age of 28 has caused a heated debate on the Internet

他的经历去年在互联网上引发了热烈的讨论。28岁时，他经济自由，退休了。这些关键词牢牢地吸引了年轻人的注意力，满足了公众在互联网浪潮下积累财富的想象。

His experience triggered a heated discussion on the Internet last year. At the age of 28, he was financially free and retired. These keywords firmly caught the attention of young people and met the public's imagination of wealth accumulation under the Internet wave.

我们观察了郭宇一年，并对他进行了独家采访。

We observed Guo Yu for a year and had an exclusive interview with him.

因为失去了时间的线性性感，回首今年，很多事情失去了很多坐标，不再像往常一样迅速出现。有点麻烦。制定旅行计划时，我不知道一周中的哪一天。暂时外出后，他达到了晚上的高峰。有一两次，郭宇开始不做长期旅行计划。这个计划太远了，但出了问题，他随时都可以开始。

Because of the loss of the linear sex appeal of time, looking back on this year, many things lost many coordinates and no longer emerged as quickly as usual. A little trouble. When making travel plans, I don't know the day of the week. After going out temporarily, he hit the evening peak. Once or twice, Guo Yu began not to make long-term travel plans. The plan was too far, but it went wrong, and he could have started at any time.

五年前他在北京工作时，他不是这样的。他计划了一次旅行。他很清楚这是一个月中的一天，一周中的一天，甚至是一小时一小时。这条路堵住了吗。在双11上，他将购买明年上半年的所有门票，并安排每个周末。

When he worked in Beijing five years ago, he was not like this. He planned a trip. He knew very well that it was the day of the month, the day of the week, or even the hour to the hour. Is this road blocked. On double 11, he will buy all the tickets for the first half of the next year and arrange every weekend.

"在最密集的飞行期间，我每两周乘坐海航hu7919和hu7920，周五晚上9点起飞，周一凌晨2点回来，5点30分着陆，6点30分回家，睡了一会儿，起床去上班。"他曾描述过这段时间。当然，这些都是过去式。

"During the most intensive period of flight, I took HNA hu7919 and hu7920 every two weeks, took off at 9 p.m. on Friday, came back at 2 a.m. on Monday, landed at 5:30, returned home at 6:30, slept for a while, got up and went to work." he once described that period. Of course, these are the past tense.

如果你不得不说"常规"，那可能是节食。在过去，他不是很克制，体重增加了。他开始尝试生酮饮食，并学会了自己做饭。每天吃沙拉和金枪鱼，在家喝牛奶，自己煎牛排和鸡肉。两个月后，我瘦了十多公斤，比过去瘦了很多。

If you have to say "routine", it may be diet. In the past, he was not very restrained and his weight went up. He began to try ketogenic diet and learned to cook by himself. Eat salad and tuna fish every day, drink milk at home, and fry steak and chicken by yourself. After two months, I lost more than ten kilograms, which is much thinner than in the past.

4月底，他完成了为期两周的联合住宿（即联合住宿的强化培训形式）学习如何驾驶，并成功获得了手动变速器驾驶执照。6月底，郭宇看中了一款深绿色718 Spyder 6mt手动装备。一周后，他买了这辆车，花了大约110万元。

At the end of April, he finished two weeks of joint accommodation (which means the intensive training form of joint accommodation) to learn how to drive and successfully got his manual transmission driver's license. At the end of June, Guo Yu took a fancy to a dark green 718 Spyder 6mt, manual gear. A week later, he bought the car and spent about 1.1 million yuan.

去年夏天，他开始体验野营。今年，他买了一本书，教人们独自露营时如何做饭，并在家里练习；他花了15万买了一辆二手车Jim Ni，升级了他的露营装备，甚至拿出了他的a7s3，拍摄并编辑了两部露营录像，并记录了他在长野露营、在半岛鹿儿岛站观看电车以及7月份在高地徒步旅行的经历。

Last summer, he began to experience camping. This year, he bought a book to teach people how to cook when camping alone and practiced at home; He spent 150000 to buy a second-hand car, Jim Ni, upgraded his camping equipment, even took out his a7s3, filmed and edited two camping vlogs, and recorded his experiences of camping in Nagano, watching trams at Kagoshima station in Peninsula and hiking in highland in July.

当然，他没有忘记驾照考试。了解了之后，他发现在东京注册更快。八月底，他签约了。10月初，郭宇拿到了驾照。他希望新的旅游模式能给他带来更多新的旅游视角。日本有许多离岛，在海上行驶，没有速度限制，也没有道路。

Of course, he didn't forget the driver's license test. After understanding it, he found that it was faster to sign up in Tokyo. At the end of August, he signed up. In early October, Guo Yu got his ship driver's license. He expects the new travel mode to bring him more new travel perspectives. Japan has many outlying islands, driving at sea, no speed limit and no roads.

"但从一个角度到另一个角度来说，这并不是那么简单。你需要了解航海的各种知识，需要不断的训练才能掌握它。开车时，你可以在累了的时候停下来休息和吃饭，但在船上，如果你不带食物，你可能真的需要学习钓鱼。这样的旅行更深刻，你会到达一些地方平时是够不着的。"

"But from one point to another, it's not so simple. You need to know all kinds of knowledge about sailing and need continuous training to master it. When driving, you can stop to rest and eat when you're tired, but on the ship, if you don't bring food, you may really have to learn fishing. Such a trip is more profound, and you'll reach some places you can't reach at ordinary times."

它就像公路上的汽车和海上的轮船。与那些同龄人的朋友相比，他选择了一条不同的人生道路，他们有家庭、有孩子，并且痴迷于他们的孩子想上什么样的国际学校。

It's like a car on the road and a ship on the sea. Compared with those friends of the same age who have families, children and are obsessed with what international school their children want to go to, he has chosen a different path in life.

类似的"矛盾"也反映在他关注的话题与现实生活的对比中。他曾经写过这样一篇微博，"有时候想一想真是太好了。当世界疯狂发布新的电动汽车时，我正在学习手动档位，体验如何掌握半离合器状态……"

A similar "contradiction" is also reflected in the contrast between the topics he focuses on and the real life he lives. He once wrote such a microblog, "sometimes it's wonderful to think about it. When the world crazy releases new electric vehicles, I'm learning manual gear and experiencing how to master the semi clutch state..."

他关注并愿意分享一些科技感强的前沿话题，如元宇宙、区块链等老业务互联网相关问题。但他也说，他有一个"完整的生活"，学会了手动拦网，通过徒步旅行、潜水、冲浪和帆船拥抱和感受现实世界，这与他所想的世界完全不同。他所考虑的本质上是一项投资。观察世界和采取行动是一种习惯，也是他的主要收入来源。

He pays attention to and is willing to share some cutting-edge topics with a strong sense of science and technology, such as metauniverse, blockchain and other issues related to the Internet of his old business. But he also said that he had a "full life", learned to block manually, and embraced and felt the real world by means of hiking, diving, surfing and sailing, which was completely different from the world he thought about. What he is thinking about is essentially an investment. Observing the world and taking action is a habit and the main source of his income.

但他对世界这种潜在的发展方向没有热情。"也许有些年轻人认为元宇宙是未来，我也想过这样的生活。戴着虚拟现实眼镜，生活在互联网上，成为一个数字漫游者。我不会。你看我的生活选择，你知道我没有这样的想法。我希望我活的每一天都是平静、稳定和充实的，我可以过一种非常传统的生活与大自然同在。"

But he has no enthusiasm for this kind of potential development direction of the world. "Maybe some young people think that the meta universe is the future, and I also want to live such a life. Wearing VR glasses, living on the Internet and becoming a digital wanderer. I won't. You see my life choice, you know I don't have such an idea. I hope that every day I live is peaceful, stable and full, and I can live a very traditional life with nature."

从频繁的日本旅行到近年来在日本定居。从温泉酒店延伸到其他领域的日本社会环境和人际沟通模式所表现出的传承感和工艺感受到郭宇的喜爱和认可。

From frequent travel to Japan to settling in Japan in recent years. The sense of inheritance and craftsmanship shown by the Japanese social environment and interpersonal communication model extending from hot spring hotels to other fields are loved and recognized by Guo Yu.

发达国家年轻人的生活也在一定程度上影响了他。那些夏天整天在海滩上冲浪的年轻人可能会辍学一年，因为他们不想在高中三年级后上大学；如果我在一段时间内不想工作，我就辞职去送外卖。我能挣100多万日元，大约6万元一个月；建筑公司工人的年薪可达200万元。

The lives of young people in developed countries have also impacted him to some extent. Those young people who spend all day surfing on the beach in summer may just drop out of school for a year because they don't want to go to college after their junior year in high school; If I don't want to work for a period of time, I resign to deliver takeout. I can earn more than 1 million yen, about 60000 yuan a month; The annual salary of workers in construction companies can reach 2 million yuan.

有时看到这一点，郭瑜似乎有点忧郁。"我们可能已经努力工作了10年，但我们已经达到了发达国家年轻人的水平，他们一开始可能就是这样。"

Sometimes seeing this, Guo Yu seems a little melancholy. "We may have worked hard for 10 years, but we have reached the level of young people in developed countries, and they may have been like this at the beginning."

这可能是在一个年轻人实现了阶级飞跃之后，与其他有经济自由的人相比，最直接的观察是几年前年轻的自己和年轻的群体。在经济自由之后，似乎一切都很轻松，这也符合郭瑜的"生活"说法。

This may be that after a young person has achieved a class leap, compared with other people with financial freedom, the most direct observation is the younger self and younger group of people a few years ago. After financial freedom, it seems that everything is light, which is also in line with Guo Yu's statement of "living".

在投资方向中，太空旅行是他真正感兴趣的为数不多的事情之一，但这也符合学习新技能以打开新世界的逻辑。他对死亡没有太多的想法，但他想象着他的葬礼——把自己放进火箭，发射到太空中。"这是一个很好的商业方向，你不认为吗？"

Among the investment directions, space travel is one of the few things he is really interested in - but it is also in line with the logic of learning a new skill to open up a new world. He didn't think much about death, but he imagined his funeral - putting himself in a rocket and launching into space. "This is a good business direction, don't you think?"

他的口头表达和他的话一样"冷漠"。我问他，"说到这些，我觉得你有欲望，但没有那么强烈，或者你只是表达得很平静，你的心还是很热？"

His oral expression has the same "coldness" as his words. I asked him, "talking about these, I feel that you have desire, but not so strong, or are you just expressing very calm and your heart is still hot?"

他给出了一个非常"有钱人"的回答-"我没有什么特别想要的。我认为这件事是可以做到的，应该做到的，我相信我能做好。事实上，世界上没有一个地方是我特别想去但不能去的。这就是为什么那些有钱人要花数千万美元买票，绕低地球轨道旅行。"

He gave a very "rich man" answer - "there's nothing I particularly desire. I think this thing can be done, it should be done, and I'm confident that I can do it well. In fact, there's no place on earth that I particularly want to go but can't go. So that's why those rich people have to spend tens of millions of dollars on a ticket and travel around low earth orbit."

《城市画报》：在中国，在讨论金融自由的同时，我们也在谈论"996"和"内卷"。你如何看待现在年轻人的斗争？

City Pictorial: in China, while discussing financial freedom, we are also talking about "996" and "inner volume". What do you think of the struggle of young people now?

郭宇：我现在不太注意这种信息。但国家似乎对此负责。我希望每个人，特别是年轻人，都能过一种更轻松的生活，这可能会对生育有更强烈的渴望。我认为这是一个好的方向。因为即使政府不从这个角度进行管理，互联网行业也已经进入了一个股票竞争的领域。如果您强制每个人添加更多的类，将不会有更多的新用户。这件事本身毫无意义。

Guo Yu: I don't pay much attention to this kind of information now. But the state seems to be in charge of this. I hope everyone, especially young people, can live a more relaxed life, which may have a stronger desire for fertility. I think it's a good direction. Because even if the government does not manage from this perspective, the Internet industry has entered a field of stock competition. If you force everyone to add more classes, there will be no more new users. This matter itself is meaningless.

既然我们想做长远的事情，有长远的眼光，我们就必须考虑长远的事情，比如每个人的幸福感和人生目标。

Since we want to do long-term things and have a long-term vision, we must (consider) the long-term things such as everyone's sense of happiness and goal in life.
