Luck doesn't befall everyone, but are those who are hit by luck really lucky?
I don't know if everyone remembers the "koi" girl who was hit by Jack Ma, Xin Xiaodu.
She once lightly forwarded Alipay's lottery Weibo with just one finger and won 100 million.
From a social animal, she became a travel blogger who traveled the world.
For ordinary people, this is a fortunate thing, how many people dream of life.
After many years, how is that lucky "koi" girl now?
With a bonus of 100 million, did she really complete the counterattack in life?
01
After winning 100 million, he decided to resign naked
Xin Xiaodu is a post-90s girl who studied at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and worked in a state-owned enterprise after graduation.
Without the unexpected luck of the lottery, her future would be bright, with a stable 9-to-5 life.
During the National Day in 2018, when Xin Xiaodu was surfing the Internet as usual, he saw the activity of Alipay, just forwarded it casually, without any hope, but he was hit by luck.
After all, before this, she had also forwarded other lotteries, and none of them had been able to win.
This time, he was selected by the Alipay Weibo lottery platform and won the lucky gift of "100 million".
Overnight, she became a koi from the sky, attracting the envy of a large number of netizens.
Netizens commented: "Don't worry about the second half of your life!" ”
In fact, she didn't react at first, and thought she had been deceived.
After a few days of psychological construction, coupled with communication with Alipay staff, she completely believed and smiled completely, she never dreamed that there would be good luck from heaven.
However, in this lottery held by Alipay that year, the prize of the event was indeed "100 million".
But this "100 million" is a combination of some popular digital products, skin care products, hotel coupons, discount air tickets, etc., not 100 million cash.
Winning the lottery turned Xin Xiaodu's life upside down, and she cooperated with the promotion of Alipay, the "winner": recording programs, receiving advertisements, and publicizing for various merchants.
In a short period of time, her Weibo account quickly increased from 1,000 to 1 million, becoming a personal brand that became popular in Alipay in just two months - "Koi Girl".
At the same time, many netizens with a curious mentality also wanted to rub her good luck, and in a short period of time, she changed from an ordinary girl to an Internet celebrity.
And she herself sighed, "I don't have to go to work for the rest of my life." ”
This 100 million, even if it is all kinds of coupons, she has to spend it.
So she did what everyone would do – quit.
After that, she began her journey around the world.
02
Is this luck really "lucky"?
However, in the eyes of everyone, is luck really lucky?
Later, it turned out that this "gift" that made the eyes of people around the world turned out to make her life far more painful than happy.
Because of this 100 million yuan jackpot, all the prizes in it have a time limit, and most of the coupons must be used up within one year according to the use regulations.
Therefore, Xin Xiaodu had to speed up his pace of travel and walk on the road every day.
Sometimes, there is not even time to rest and sleep, and when it is busiest, you can only sleep three or four hours a day, while the rest of the time is busy clocking in.
Her schedule is very full, she goes to one or two countries a month, and she has to check in with netizens every time she goes to a place.
Because this is also the request of the organizer, she has also become an Internet celebrity of Zheng'er Bajing.
The initial freshness passed, and her travels began to become utilitarian.
The true meaning of tourism has been lost, and the popularity of netizens for her has also greatly decreased.
Xin Xiaodu began to be forgotten, and fewer and fewer people paid attention to her, which also turned her from a hot Internet celebrity into a passing travel blogger.
All of us feel that the Koi Girl's gift package worth 100 million yuan should be the icing on the cake for her bright future.
Perhaps in the end, even she did not expect that the success and happiness brought by good luck did not last long, but gradually felt tired and sleepy, and even depressed and bored in the process of her busy "enjoying good luck".
Xin Xiaodu later broke the news that most of the gifts in these winning packages have a redemption time, which means that if the redemption period is three months, the eligibility for redemption will be lost after three months.
In addition, some gifts are not only limited to the time limit, but also have restrictions such as designated merchants.
Therefore, all this is a marketing tool of Alipay.
Although the big gift package is indeed worth 100 million, it is believed that the gift package does not include the cost of food and accommodation during the trip, which is to let people spend money to receive a gift in a strange place, and then go to another place to get another.
And some gifts are practical items in life, but some gifts are very picky.
For example, some particularly high-end luxury goods that need to be used and consumed on special occasions are really not very useful for ordinary people.
And according to her later reveal, she had maxed out her credit card in order to travel the world.
Therefore, she also owes a debt, but if she doesn't exchange it, she is unwilling.
At the same time, she also transferred her prizes on the Internet, but unfortunately everyone watched more lively, and no one was fooled in the end.
After all, this luck is really not so "lucky".
In this way, Xin Xiaodu suffered from depression and did not come out for a long time.

Not all luck can catch it
The "Koi" girl seems lucky, but in fact, the real winner is Jack Ma and Alipay.
At that time, Alipay took the lead and relied on this wave of marketing methods to save an unknown amount of advertising costs.
How can ordinary people win a game for ordinary people and capitalists?
Xin's "lucky" journey is not over.
After Xin Xiaodu became famous, many merchants saw her residual value and wanted to use her fame to open up popularity.
So, she also launched a campaign that only needs one yuan to forward koi, and the prize includes a sea-view house and a luxury car, which is also 5 million if converted into RMB.
Many netizens have seen the successful case of Xin Xiaodu, so they all want to become lucky darlings and enthusiastically sign up.
However, what Xin Xiaodu didn't know was that this step directly ruined her future path.
Because, after investigation, it was found that this merchant was actually a scammer, there was no company, and even the official seal was stolen.
Through this incident, Xin Xiaodu's reputation was discredited, and she was also sued by the real company, and finally Xin Xiaodu was sentenced to cash out all the prizes, which became her new burden.
In the end, she finally let this "luck" consume money, coupled with the practical pressure of not having a job, made her feel haggard, and even found to be depressed.
Now, as before, she lives a life of social animals every day, plain, hard but steady.
She will post the fun and interesting things happening around her, will be angry and complain, and will also be confused about the future.
This is a truly ordinary but down-to-earth normal life.
Life is too hard, and each of us hopes to be blessed by the god of luck, hoping to be hit by unexpected luck.
After decades of struggle, you can have a car and a house, enjoy a prosperous and wealthy life, and have a life of financial freedom.
But not all lucky, everyone can catch it.
Where in the world is there a free lunch, those who rely on their own hands to work hard can really hold it.
There is a lot of sand, but it is easy to lose; There is only one stone, but it can be held tightly and not easily dropped.
Ordinary and ordinary life, in fact, is quite good!
At the very least, those simple happinesses and joys we can have at our fingertips.
