购票链接 TICKET LINK: https://yoopay.cn/event/35838509
2026 开年之际,
我们想把这杯酒,
敬给那些愿意为热爱长期投入,
也愿意把时间重新交还给生活的人。
这一夜,属于「时间自由者」
As the new year begins,
we raise this glass to those who choose to invest deeply in what they love—
and who are intentional about giving time back to their lives.
This evening is for the Time-Free.
他们可能正在经营一人公司,
或以自由职业、内容创业为主要路径;
也可能是博主、数字游民,
或一边工作,一边搭建属于自己的副业系统
身份不同,但有一个清晰的共通点:
对时间有意识,对选择有判断,
并持续探索一种更适合自己的生活方式
You might be running a one-person business, working independently, or building a content-driven path. You might be a blogger, a digital nomad, or someone balancing a main job while developing a side project of your own.
Different paths, one shared mindset: a conscious relationship with time, thoughtful decision-making, and an ongoing search for a better way to live and work.
这一次,我们选择在淮海中路百年历史保护建筑中的 Geographer 地理学家酒馆相聚。原始洞穴般的空间结构,结合优雅的法式浪漫氛围,为这场夜谈,提供一个有腔调的发生场域
We’ll be gathering at Geographer, located in a century-old heritage building on Huaihai Road. Its cave-like architecture and French romantic atmosphere create a character-rich setting—the perfect backdrop for an night of conversation.
这是一段为同频者准备的夜晚
在舒适的空间里,自然交流
聊正在发生的工作、创作与生活
也在彼此的经验中,找到新的灵感与方向
This is an evening designed for people on the same wavelength. In a relaxed, carefully curated space, conversations flow naturally—
about work, creation, and everyday life—
and through shared experiences, new ideas and directions begin to emerge.
Attendees 参与人群
本场活动邀请以下类型的城市时间自由探索者:
一人公司主理人 / 创业者 / 联合创始人
自媒体人 / 博主 / 内容创业者
自由职业者 / 顾问 / 独立服务提供者
数字游民 / 远程工作者 / 时间自主型工作者
正在搭建副业、关注 lifestyle 与长期成长的人
我们期待的是对生活有判断力、对交流有边界感、愿意倾听、也愿意分享真实经验的个体。
共同营造一个『松弛、精致、私密、自然』且真正聊得下去的高质量社交场

Hi, my name is Nigel.
I graduated from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and began my career designing rocket components for China’s aerospace program. So unlike the so-called “rocket scientists” on Wall Street, I am the real deal.
For the past 20 years, I have helped foreign businesses achieve a smooth landing in China, navigating everything from market strategy and regulatory compliance to local partnerships and execution. I speak the languages of engineering, mathematics, and cross-border business.
Let us have a cup of tea at a peaceful Buddhist temple and talk business. We can brainstorm practical, real-world approaches to doing business in China.
My associate and I also host business networking events and organize trips around China for professionals and entrepreneurs.
Please add the WhatsApp contact above to connect and confirm details.

The Power of One Thought with Special Guest Dr. Mohit Gupta
**Join globally respected cardiologist , Dr. Mohit Gupta, as we explore how our thoughts impact our physical health and overall well-being.**
Our thoughts are far more powerful than we often realize. A single thought has the capacity to influence our emotions, shape our health, strengthen or strain our relationships, and quietly guide the course of our lives.
The Power of One Thought is an insightful session that explores how conscious and intentional thinking impacts the brain, heart, and overall well-being. Through a thoughtful blend of scientific evidence and meditative practice, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how thought patterns influence stress, emotional resilience, mental clarity, and long-term health.
In this session, Dr. Mohit Gupta seamlessly integrates modern neuroscience and cardiology with the wisdom of Raj Yoga meditation, offering practical insights into emotional regulation, cardiovascular health, and the slowing of biological aging. He uses his own life stories of Belief and Resilience. The experience is designed to be reflective, engaging, and immediately applicable to both personal and professional life.
This session is ideal for individuals seeking inner clarity, emotional balance, and a deeper understanding of how one consciously chosen thought can create lasting transformation.
**About Dr. Mohit Gupta**
*Dr. Mohit Dayal Gupta, MD, DM, FACC, FRCP, is a globally respected interventional cardiologist and Director–Professor of Cardiology at GB Pant Hospital, New Delhi, and serves as Cardiologist to the Parliament of India. A four-time TEDx speaker, he has authored more than 150 peer-reviewed scientific publications and is a Fellow of leading international cardiology institutions.*
*A distinguished clinician–scientist, Dr. Gupta’s current research focuses on the effects of Raj Yoga meditation on biological aging and cardiovascular resilience.

Game Dev Working Session (Tysons-Pimmit VA Library Conference Room)
**Location**: Tysons-Pimmit Regional Library (Virginia) Conference Room
A game development **Working Session** involves 3 key parts:
1. Tell people what you're going to do
2. Actually do stuff
3. Show people what you did
That's what we'll be doing for this meeting. We'll briefly tell each other what we're going to do, then work on our projects, then at around 5:30 wrap up to show each other what we did and chat for a bit.
You don't have to stay the whole time, so feel free to drop in and out as you have time.
All game development skill levels welcome. Whether you're bringing a game you're trying to ship in a month, or you're just planning on following some tutorials or trying out a new tool to improve your skills, use this time to make progress.
Working sessions also train you to think about the scope of your work: pick a chunk of work that you can complete in the time that we have. That way you can end the working session with a feeling of accomplishment!
**What to bring**: Laptop, Charger, maybe a power strip if you have one handy, any other game development tools you need. Try to download any software you need before the working session. There is Wifi at this location, but it may be slow if you have to download any large files.
