If I remember correctly, there was an account on Weibo called "Cai Shanghai," and their catchphrase was: Shanghai will always rise...

Even in the so-called winter of 2019, all employees of Ant Financial were eagerly booking villas in Hangzhou Bay, with agents raising prices all the way. Many people paid the down payment without even looking, believing that once it went public next year, even the cleaning lady would receive a million in bonuses. Until January 17, 2020, when those two women driving a Mercedes broke the dragon vein.

In the graduation season of 2015, countless banks, brokerages, and fund companies bombarded my phone. One company offered a signing bonus of 20,000, but I was already sitting under the Eiffel Tower in Paris, sipping coffee and waiting for graduate school to start. I always felt that those positions had too low a salary, and after studying abroad, there would definitely be better opportunities.

In 2009, my family was relocated, and I received 10 million while lying down. My parents didn't tell me, fearing I wouldn't study well if I found out. Currently, all of my original savings come from this.

The Cat General account was established in 2012, and the MBA class at Suzhou University was filled with gilded individuals from banks, brokerages, and wealth management companies. At that time, MBA tuition fees were skyrocketing, once exceeding 200,000 RMB, and EMBA reached 500,000. That's how I met the first Cat General.

The ghostly echoes of the Yalta Conference: how the "Tehran Conference" will determine the fate of other nations.

The ice machine at Sam's has been criticized for being unfriendly to shorter individuals, and they said they would consider providing assistance! Some people even crawled in directly.

The ice maker at Sam's doesn't have a raised platform, so all the ice cubes are pressed down at the bottom. If you buy fresh produce, you can't reach the ice cubes without sticking your head in. That machine has had problems for a long time, and there are no staff available to help retrieve the ice cubes buried at the bottom. My mom went to Sam's yesterday and got frozen just trying to reach the ice maker.

I remember back in 2018 when the Times Joyful Mansion in Kunshan opened for sale. At that time, it was a lottery system for buying houses, and 20,000 people surged in to purchase. It was said that if you won the lottery, you could make a net profit of 500,000 RMB. The park slope next to the lottery site was filled with cars and tents, and the ground was littered with instant noodles. My parents also went to join the excitement without any surprise. When it opened, the surrounding housing prices were already 28,000 RMB per square meter, and by 2021, Times Joyful Mansion had risen to 40,000 RMB per square meter, but by 2025, it had already dropped back to the original price.

No wonder the Chongqing subway is so similar to Osaka.
