In 2008, a top student at Jilin University suddenly and mysteriously disappeared, and four years later, someone found him in the corner of an Internet café.
At this time, he was unkempt and had nothing to do with high-achieving students, what was the reason why the proud son of heaven who scored 648 points in the college entrance examination became a homeless man in an Internet café?
Top student or homeless person?
The man's name is Jin Aibing, and for four years, he has spent time in an Internet café, and according to the Internet administrator of the Internet café, he has hardly left seat 77 of the Internet café except for eating and going to the toilet.
After a long time, the network administrator and more and more people knew that Jin Aibing only sat in seat 77, and the network administrator simply gave him the nickname "Seventh Brother".
Although Seventh Brother was in an Internet café, he was like a "god" in the forum of Jilin University at that time, which also made him a beautiful scenery in the Internet café.
Every time Brother Qi went to the Internet café, he felt very surprised, the No. 77 position was always empty, maybe someone else wanted to see him, or it may be that the network administrator specially reserved it for him.
Later, the seventh brother simply stopped going out of the Internet café, a dusty suitcase, a bucket of water, and a pair of slippers, and stayed in the Internet café for 4 years, during which he only played games and never went to class.
was asked how often to take a bath, Seventh Brother said that it was washed once every month in the summer, and if you can not go out in winter, you won't go out, just because it's too cold outside, and the clothes can be washed without washing, and Seventh Brother told that he has never washed his down jacket.
Many people will wonder why such a top student from a double-first-class school would stay in an Internet café for so long?
Embrace new things
Seventh Brother's hometown is a rural village in Hebei, and his parents have been very strict with him since he was a child, and he can't tolerate any mistakes.
Seventh brother's academic performance is also very good, is a well-known good student in the eyes of the school teacher, in 2004 in the college entrance examination, Seventh Brother scored 647 points.
However, at that time, Brother Qi's high school had a rule that all students who were admitted to the first class could receive a reward of 30,000 yuan.
In order to get the reward of 30,000 yuan, Brother Qi gave up his favorite chemistry major and chose to choose a computer major with more admissions.
Because Seventh Brother has been controlled by his parents since he was a child, the sternness of his parents is not any childhood at all for Seventh Brother, and his childhood is spent under the control of his parents.
After arriving at the university life, Seventh Brother was full of curiosity about this place, because it was very free, and no one controlled himself too much.
Because Brother Qi is very curious about such a living environment, when school first starts, Brother Qi is still very honest and will go to class on time.
But for Brother Qi, the computer course can't be interested at all, so Brother Qi gradually let himself go, and Brother Qi described that no one cares about it at all, and he can do whatever he wants.
Brother Qi also said that if he didn't have classes in college, he could still sleep lazily in the morning, and he had to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning at home.
Addicted to games, you can't extricate yourself
In 2005, a game called World of Warcraft became popular, and by chance, Seventh Brother came into contact with this game.
Because of the magical scenes and bloody battles in the game, this made the seventh brother, who was under strict discipline, suddenly fascinated, no matter where he was, the seventh brother was always discussing various strategies with his classmates.
As long as there is time, Brother Seven will go to the Internet café with his classmates, and on Saturdays and Sundays, he will work overtime in the game.
The great sense of accomplishment brought to Seventh Brother in the game has won the envy and recognition of many classmates, and it is also from that time that Seventh Brother has been completely addicted to the game.
With the continuous improvement of the achievements in the game, Seventh Brother's grades in school continued to decline, and in the second semester of his junior year, Seventh Brother failed many grades, and he simply began to lie flat, completely ignoring his grades, and playing games wholeheartedly.
Many people don't understand, is it true that if Brother Qi doesn't come to class, he doesn't care if his grades fail in school?
Tube, of course it did, but Brother Qi thought of a way.
The school grades had to be sent home, but because the seventh brother had too many failed grades, he didn't know how to face his parents, so he simply gave a fake address, so he didn't know where to send these results.
Even though the school had demoted Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother never went through the formalities because he didn't know how to face this matter, so he fell deeper and deeper into this quagmire.
After four years of wandering, he was taken home
Soon came to graduation, and all the classmates got their graduation certificates and went out to find jobs, but the seventh brother had nothing except for his achievements in the game, and he lied to his parents that he had successfully graduated.
At the beginning, Seventh Brother also went out to look for a job, but he ran into walls everywhere, and soon he had no money on him, and finally Seventh Brother went around and returned to the Internet café.
But it was this time that went back to help me a lot with this game that destroyed Seventh Brother, who relied on reselling equipment in the game to level up, and the money he earned every month could at least maintain his daily expenses.
Seventh Brother knew that he couldn't explain his life in an Internet café to his family, so he simply cut off contact with his family.
Brother Qi lived in an Internet café for several years, until an interview with a reporter made his incident quickly popular all over the Internet.
One day in 2013, Seventh Brother's younger brother and his third uncle appeared at the door of the Internet café, but they didn't dare to go up and asked someone to find Seventh Brother.
The seventh brother has not heard from him for a few years, and he is both aggrieved and excited to see his relatives for the first time, and the third uncle does not scold the seventh brother, but cares more.
The next day, the third uncle took the seventh brother to buy a new set of clothes and took him on the train home.
Now Brother Qi has lived a normal life, I heard that Brother Qi later worked as a manager of the software research and development department in a company in Beijing, and also solved problems for some "Internet addicted" teenagers on the Internet.
Presumably, there are still many people in life who are parasitic in Internet cafes like Brother Qi, and they are now in the frustration and confusion of life, but Brother Qi bravely walked out of the predicament, and I believe that they can do the same.
