I currently run a startup in the 3D printing industry and organize offline entrepreneur meetups in People's Square, Shanghai. This is **not** a language-exchange event. Please do not attend if your sole purpose is to practice English. However, if you have an entrepreneurial mindset and a basic working level of English, this event may be a very good fit for you. Our meetups are bilingual (Chinese and English) and focused on startups, business ideas, and real networking. Some of our members are native English speakers who also speak fluent Chinese, either because they use Chinese at home or have studied at universities in China. There is always someone willing to help when you have difficulty expressing your ideas in English. If you want to pitch ideas, make meaningful business connections, and improve your practical business English in a real-world setting, you are very welcome to join us. 📍 **Location:** People’s Square, Shanghai 🗓️ **Time:** Saturday afternoon 💴 **Fee:** 50 RMB (includes unlimited beer & soft drinks) **如果我说我的MEETUP创业者人脉交流活动在上海排第二，没人敢说自己的排第一 :)**

✨ 每一本好书都值得反复阅读，每一次阅读都可能遇见新的自己。 欢迎参加2026年3月14日城市部落英文读书会，社交英语角 weekly Language exchange & bookclub meetup Topic discussion主题讨论: 《Everything Is F\*cked: A Book about Hope》 中文名《果敢的活法》，在操蛋的时代寻找希望，春季英文读书会。 Venue: People Square in Shanghai 上海人民广场 Cost: RMB 18元/人，. Date & time: Mar 14th 上午 10:00-12:30 **After sign up, please add the host wechat via hawk_cn** **“** 别希望更好，去变得更好。**”《果敢的活法》在容易焦虑的年代，做果敢、清醒、反脆弱的自己。如果说要了解人类的历史，必读《人类简史》的话，要了解自己的内心，必读《Everything is fucked》。** **Life is about solving problems. Therefore,learn how to pick good problems. Avoiding problems just makes everything worse.** New York Times Bestseller ＂Just because everything appears to be a mess doesn’t mean you have to be one. Mark Manson’s book is a call to arms for a better life and better world and could not be more needed right now.＂ -- Ryan Holiday, bestselling author of The Obstacle is the Way and Ego is the Enemy From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F\*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope. 作者马克·曼森以独特的视角剖析了人类对“希望”的依赖与矛盾，指出希望既是生存的动力，也可能成为焦虑和逃避现实的根源。书中结合哲学、心理学和现实案例，揭示了现代人陷入“希望危机”的原因，如过度追求未来目标、忽视当下体验等，引发读者对自身生活状态的反思。 1. 除了理论分析，书中提供了具体的行动建议，如如何面对痛苦、培养反脆弱心态、建立真实的价值观等。作者强调“行动而非希望”是改变生活的关键，鼓励读者通过实际行动提升自我，而非依赖虚幻的未来承诺。 2. 书中融合了哲学、神经科学、历史等多个领域的知识，从尼采的“命运之爱”到康德的人类发展阶段理论，为读者提供了丰富的思想资源，帮助读者从更宏观的角度理解人类行为和心理，具有较高的学术价值和启发性。 We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it’s ever been—we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f\*cked—the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn’t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. Now, in Everthing Is F\*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom—and even of hope itself. What’s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it’s Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F\*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn’t—and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the “subtle art” of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain. The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries. With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f\*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven’t considered before. It’s another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.

Not at all. If you plan to read or have read it, that’s great; if you haven’t touched it, you’re still more than welcome to join. Come and meet like-minded people and connect over the topic as well as the book. **How can I contribute to the discussion if I haven’t read the book?** The book is simply a conversation starter - our discussions often branch out into related themes, personal experiences and broader topics of interest. Our gathering is more about socialising and engaging in decent conversations with book lovers, rather than a formal seminar. **Can I also discuss my own fav book or the book I recently read?** Absolutely! Our gatherings are all about open conversations, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on any book that’s been captivating to you. **Is this group open to everyone?** Yes - this is a friendly and inclusive group, welcoming everyone regardless of gender, sexuality, or background.
