This episode is presented in collaboration with Tmall.

Zhao Qi always speaks with a flow of thought, like when he pauses in a topic and then reflectsively asks himself, "What was I worried about just now?" This habit of self-deconstruction makes him an unusual person who cannot be easily categorized. He won an Emmy Award, once served as the director of the reality show *Life's Little Treasures*, and has worked for over two decades on special programs at CCTV. But now, he lives in Yunnan, wants to learn how to fly planes, and plans to study how to become a "shaman" in the Andes Mountains.

In this episode, we didn't focus entirely on documentaries. We mainly discussed whether there really is a "true self," why we often fight with those perceived as opposites, and whether sometimes our external state might be a performance for ourselves? Zhao Qi says he has experienced a "crash" — when the system accumulates to a certain point, it collapses by itself. After collapsing, instead of patching it up, he switches to a new system. He also says, "Everything can be, nothing can be."

I think this is an interesting episode that presents my views and碰撞 (collisions). So I recommend it to everyone, inviting you to step into the door of that "rabbit hole."

Adults, there's no need to argue right or wrong with anyone. Changing adults' opinions is almost impossible.

Director Zhao uses soft words to convey powerful messages, and Miss Yang breaks down and discusses them, showcasing the skills of two great conversationalists. It's too enjoyable 😁

Listening to this podcast reminds me of the [Good Up Tool]. Previously, facing the unknown,

I would get anxious and couldn't sleep.

Now, I tell myself:

"What if the worst happens? At most, I'll start over."

This phrase comes from something I learned from the visible activities in 'Good Up'. Because I realized many times we can't see things clearly, which leads us to getting stuck. Even sometimes, for some people, expressing themselves becomes difficult.

It didn't teach me any workplace skills,

but gave me a mindset for the workplace.

If you:

· Often feel bored and repetitive in life

· Easily anxious and retreat when faced with difficulties

· Want to spend weekends scrolling through phones but feel empty

· Or simply feel you haven't had a lively feeling for a long time

You might want to try it.

Good Morning Hahaha

1:03:54 "Who do you want your podcast to talk about?"

"People like you"

"Too few people like me"

"So update a bit slower, okay?"

Hahaha! I love how confident and self-assured Sister Tianxuan is 😂. It feels like I'm slowly becoming more like her too, with a sense of inner confidence. As I meet more people, I realize that there are really very few people who are just like me, almost rare.

It's so interesting here. There seems to be an inexplicable connection to the mythological story of Pangu creating heaven and earth. From chaos to heaven and earth, it's not only a hypothesis about the world but also a stage in the evolution of life.
