There is a question online:
If you are suddenly dragged into an insane asylum, what do you do to prove that you are a normal person?
Standard answer: That must be calm and calm, not impatient, in order to make people believe that you are normal.
The second question - how long do you want to be impatient and calm? Others believe you're normal?
The answer is – 17 years!
Not one day less.

In the WeChat public account "True Story Project", Mr. Huang Yi interviewed and told the story of Xu Ge.
Brother Xu, who went abroad in his early years, went to Australia to pan for gold.
When I arrived in Australia, I let myself go and went to the casino.
The God of Gamblers fell in love with him, and he won a big win, winning $200,000 in one go.
He decided to take it when he saw it was good - to win another 100,000 and then take it.
But his good fortune ran out.
Lose it quickly.
With no money left, he thought about asking for food in Australia - but Australia is sparsely populated, walking in the wilderness for a day, and he can't see a person, and the begging experience is extremely poor.
Helpless to return.
After returning to China, the more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I became, why... Why can't I understand?
So I called the embassy to complain.
This strange thing about him is really not easy to complain about. But he was very persistent, constantly making transoceanic calls, the phone bill rose sharply, and the father and eldest brother concluded that the child's brain shell was broken.
Twist to the lunatic asylum.

This mental hospital, very standardized, has three social hierarchies:
Doctors and nurses are rulers.
The second level is the sick head, the violent machine of the hospital.
The third level is the patient, whose main task is obedience and not to squeak when beaten.
On the first day of hospitalization, Brother Xu did not understand the rules and was beaten very badly by the sick head.
He was very sad and indignant, felt that this society was unfair, and was about to protest, when he saw a patient who was beaten by a sick head and was sent to an electric hemp chair by a doctor and nurse to be electric, and Brother Xu was immediately honest.
Be obedient, and resist the electric hemp chair.
Since then, patients have continued to resist and have been suppressed. The patient complained about Brother Xu: Why don't you help us?
Brother Xu shrugged: Useless, I will help you, only one more electric hemp chair.
Because Brother Xu understands the rules and is very well-behaved, he only stayed for one year and was "cured".
Healed.
Brother Xu was released and returned home.
Soon after returning home, he quarreled with his father because of trivial matters, and his father could not argue with him, and sent Brother Xu to an insane asylum for the second time.
Considering that the last time the psychiatric hospital was irresponsible, it was only a year before he was released home, so this time he was sent to the responsible psychiatric hospital at home.
He was locked up in an empty room, and no one paid any attention to him.
He quarreled for many days before a few doctors came and sent him to the general ward.
It turned out that this mental hospital was different from the rules of the previous family. Here, all those who are sent in will be locked up in a small black room for a few days, similar to the ancient meaning of "two hundred killing sticks", that is, to let you know that you are powerful and obedient.
There are no sick heads here, patients are equal, the fireworks in the world are extremely thick, and there are even people selling cigarettes inside.
It's actually a prison without guards.
Everyone here wants to escape.
Brother Xu also wanted to escape, but he did not act rashly.
Just observe in silence.
Stills from the film "Flying Over the Madhouse"
Finally, one day, a new patient came in and beckoned him to flee together. He thought to himself that it would be all right anyway, so let's run away and see. The two fled all the way to the back wall, over which the normal world was outside. But this wall is really high, and the two people stacked arhats, and they can't reach the wall.
Despite this, there are still patients who have successfully escaped.
But a few days later, these patients who had successfully escaped appeared in the ward again.
Why?
Brother Xu fell into deep thought.
（04）
After deep thinking, Brother Xu finally figured it out.
Those patients who escaped successfully but came back, they have no money.
Without money, you can't survive in the normal world, and you will ask for help from society, and this help will be found to have escaped from the insane asylum, and people will send you back.
To escape, you have to have money!
You have to have money!

How can people make money in an insane asylum?
Brother Xu formulates a strategy: in five steps:
The first step, he must appear harmless.
Not noisy, not noisy, not full of the status quo, can not become a problem figure,
Step two: He must become a collaborator.
To show the willingness to serve to doctors and nurses, those who hold power.
The third step is to enter the "public institution".
It is to become a helper for doctors and nurses, to take things for them, to hold trays.
The fourth step is to exercise or cash out "power".
When the doctors and nurses regarded him as "their own person", he naturally got his hands on the business of peddling cigarettes in the ward to make money. Then he contracted all the patients' haircuts, then monopolized the catering business in the ward, and opened a "casino". Many franchised "black industries" made him rich in a mental hospital.
Get rich first.
The fifth step is to get more "privileges".
Gaining the trust of doctors and nurses, he could finally get out of the hospital and hang out in the name of "official business".
He has broken through the madhouse.
But he didn't want to go yet.
He wanted more.

Powerful, rich, developed, hug a beautiful person, shouldn't it?

Brother Xu really took a female patient and ran away without permission.
He fled to the train station and was arrested by the hospital.
He was imprisoned in a small black room.
The hospital threatened them: You must break up or you will not be released.
The brain hole of this hospital is also strange enough to make this request.
The two were unmoved.
It may be that the hospital finally realized that its request was more nervous, and finally released the two people. But Brother Xu is a rich man, bought a mobile phone, and contacted a lawyer. The first lawyer was a liar, decisively cheated him of more than ten thousand yuan, Xu Brother did not mind, but the nurse could not see it, for Xu Brother to get the money back, the second lawyer is a pig teammate, received Xu Brother 7,000 yuan, but identified Xu Brother as mentally ill.
Finally contacted a lawyer master, and then re-identified Xu Brother, the appraisal result is that there is no more normal person in the world than Xu Brother, this goods stay in a mental hospital, actually can become a privileged class to make a lot of money, you dare to say that this person is neurotic, you must have a nerve problem.
After 17 years of being imprisoned in a mental hospital, Xu Ge walked out of the madhouse.
- with his girlfriend.

Brother Xu's story is like a fable.
It tells the secret of the leap of human social class.
First, you have to understand the rules.
There are rules everywhere.
Rules are the way the people who make the rules do things, and this method must make the rule-makers pay the least cost and get the most benefits. If you approve of these rules, you will lose. If you don't approve, you'll be killed.
What do you say you should do?
Second, learn to use the rules.
Rules are for use.
People who are dissatisfied with the rules always want to smash this solidified interest structure. Such an approach is bound to be met with a strong backlash from the rules, and only those who know how to use them are the wisest and most likely to break the game.
Third, become the master of the rules.
The so-called rules are nothing more than an interpersonal structure.
Young people are dissatisfied with some rules because they do not have a place in this interest mechanism. As in a psychiatric hospital, there is no room for patient interest. But Xu Ge keenly found that the interpersonal structure of the rules is not monolithic, and he can become the master of the rules.
In the end, Xu Ge used his insight into the rules to become a "vested interest", he was in a mental hospital, it can be said that black and white eat all, the political circles and financial circles have fished for two, things have come to this step, even if he says that he is mentally ill, others do not believe him at all.
Flying over the madhouse for seventeen years, Brother Xu passed us the secret of breaking through the shackles of class. When it comes to breaking through the shackles of class, some people hope for "rich thinking" or a certain idea, which is like a patient in a mental hospital who always wants to prove that he is normal. The more you do it in this environment, the more people suspect that you are not normal, and the more they will not let you go free. You have to understand human nature, analyze the law, only if you learn to use the rules, master the rules, will you achieve class counterattack. If you can't do this, sooner or later you will be dragged back to the lunatic asylum... No, sooner or later, it will be dragged back to the original class. When you understand this mystery, whether in the lunatic asylum or anywhere, you are free.
