With the rapid development of the times, people also have to speed up so that they can keep up with the pace of the times. The fast-paced life of the north, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen also makes some people want to escape, but fleeing also means losing the original high income.
However, for some people who have accumulated wealth, it is very simple to live Tao Yuanming's life of "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the South Mountain".
Wei Zhen was one of the earliest Internet "beneficiaries" in China, graduating from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2003 with a major in computer science, and after graduation, he successfully entered Huawei and became a programmer with "just right meal".
A year later, Wei Zhen jumped ship to join Tencent, although Tencent at that time was not as famous as it is now, but the prospects were better, and it was preparing a listing plan at that time. After Wei Zhen entered Tencent, he developed with Tencent until he was ready to resign and retire to the mountains.
Since the Internet had not yet become a mainstream industry at that time, and the number of programmers was also very scarce, Wei Zhen became the CTO of Tencent at that time with his excellent professional skills, and was also one of the elders.
As a veteran-level figure of Tencent, it is conceivable that the income must also exceed that of ordinary people. After that, Wei Zhen resigned from Tencent to start his own business, and the explosive games such as Versailles Moore Manor, which we are still familiar with, are related to him.
The company that Wei Zhen co-founded was successfully listed 3 years later, and his wealth also jumped up.
In 2017, just when people thought that the former elder of Tencent and now one of the founders of the listed company was ready to expand his business territory, he made a surprisingly bold decision - retirement.
Many people think that his move is too crazy, after all, his current wealth and status are how many ordinary people dream. However, Wei Zhen did not hesitate to leave Shanghai with his wife and children and return to life itself.
Now Wei Zhen and his wife and children have been living in Zipeng Mountain in Hefei, Anhui Province, for many years, and the things they do every day are to plant flowers, drink tea, and live a moist life.
Using the wealth they had accumulated before, they chartered hundreds of acres of land and transformed it into farms and orchards. I am also an avid gardener, and almost all the projects are done by myself. After quitting his job, he no longer has to spend time on work, so he has a lot of time to spend on his hobbies.
Like Wei Zhen, there are now more and more people who give up their original wealth and reputation and choose to return to the hidden mountains and forests and live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes. After achieving financial freedom, many people will choose to leave the big city of struggle and return to the small city to enjoy life.
Even as many celebrities say, isn't making money to live the ideal life you want?
