Returning to Huizhou No. 1 High School: Understanding the Cruelty and Tenderness of the World at Brother Sun's Alma Mater
"Eating three hundred lychees a day, not unwilling to be a Lingnan person for long." After 21 years, stepping through the gates of Huizhou No. 1 High School again, the air seems to still carry the poetic essence of Lingnan described by Su Dongpo. But at this moment, I want to talk about another young man who emerged from here—Sun Yuchen—and his resonant words: "This world is both cruel and tender."
Walking along the familiar campus paths, looking at the vibrant faces, I can't help but recall a line from Brother Sun's book: "Stability is the most expensive and dangerous lie in this era of high-speed iteration." We once thought that getting into a good university was the finish line, only to realize that life is not about piecing together effort, but about amplifying choices.
Huizhou, this underestimated city, is quietly becoming a haven for "digital nomads" in the AI era. It has a climate warmer than Hegang, transportation more convenient than Dali, and the wild growth atmosphere that Brother Sun describes as "only recognizing results, not asking about origins." Here, you can maintain a decent life at a very low cost, allowing you to invest precious funds and time into self-improvement. As Brother Sun said: "Before 30, don't buy a house, don't buy a car, don't get married," because if you don't hustle while young, what will you have to reminisce about when you're old?
In this moment where algorithms and computing power are reconstructing the world, effort itself may have no meaning; the meaning lies in the value you produce that is recognized by the market. The low cost of living in Huizhou gives us the right to "not do anything," while AI technology provides us with the leverage to "do something."
The world has never shown sympathy for you because you are weak; it only respects you because you are strong. Let us not go with the flow on the path that Brother Sun walked, but see the trends clearly and invest in ourselves. After all, courage itself is a tremendous competitive advantage.
