Escaping Xierqi! I met a lot of new friends

Translated from Chinese

In Xierqi, every day is the same ashen two-point commute. Work doesn't give anyone a pleasant face, okay! Every day I have no heart to tidy myself up and enjoy life. On the weekend I came across the bread street in Dongsi. As a bread person, there was no way I was going to miss a single good bakery! I tried the very popular Baker's Farm and the 24 Bakers master sea-salt roll and cinnamon roll. Neither was a miss. The sea-salt roll is salty-sweet, but eating a whole one in one go might be a bit too rich. Right around then a friend also recommended T46's mystery-box drinking night. Because I like a small drink and I like listening to other people's stories, I decided to make more interesting memories for myself before leaving Beijing… I thought it might be pretty interesting, but I didn't expect it to be this much fun!! I don't need to spell out how much an all-women table match is worth. Everyone had an interesting soul. The experiences and views each person shared gave me something to think about right then. And it was incredibly fated that I met an older sister born in the same month and on the same day who also follows EXO. The two of us even have the same phone password… How small is that probability, I ask. Fate is sometimes just this strange. It brought six girls who didn't know each other together on a night like this, to feel the same joy and happiness…

在西二旗每天都面如土色的两点一线,上班根本不会给任何人好脸色好吗!每天都无心收拾自己享受生活🥲周末刷到东四的面包街,我这个面包脑袋不可能会错过每一个好吃的面包店!尝了很火的面包师的农场和24个面包师的大师海盐卷,肉桂卷。这两款都不踩雷,海盐卷是咸甜口但是可能一次吃一整个会有点腻。 正好还被朋友安利了T46的盲盒酒局,因为本人是一个喜欢小酌又喜欢听别人的故事的人,所以决定在离开北京前给自己制造更多有趣的回忆…想过可能挺有趣的,但是没想过居然这么有意思!!同桌匹配的全女局什么含金量不必我多说好嘛🤤大家都有有趣的灵魂,每个人分享的经历、观点都能让此时此刻的我有所启发。而且超级有缘的是遇到了同月同日出生同时追exo的姐姐,我们两个人连手机密码都相同…求问这个概率究竟有多小🤯 缘分有时候就是这么奇妙,让六个素不相识的女生在这样一个夜晚相聚在一起,感受同一份喜悦和幸福…

An international student back in Beijing shares trying a mystery-box dinner

Translated from Chinese

This time back in Beijing, because my friends have all gradually started working, and I was a bit bored day to day, I took the chance to try the recently popular mystery-box dinner and ate with five strangers. I'm an E and I love socializing. I've been a few times and the experience was good each time, so I immediately recommended it to people around me. Even my mom has been once, haha! This post shares what a few mystery-box dinners were actually like. Friends who know me should have seen me looking for meal buddies on a solo trip in Europe. A few years ago I also hosted a "strangers' little dinner table" myself in Glasgow, UK. I really like this kind of light socializing, stranger meetups with no agenda, so the nature of a mystery-box dinner suits me. There's no pressure that you must stay in touch. Most of the time it's just an easy meal, and it avoids chats going dead in your contact list. That's a point I really like. The tablemates I've met all have a good sense of boundaries. You can clearly feel that everyone comes with an open, accepting attitude to meet new friends. Before matching, you choose your purpose for joining the dinner. I chose that I like hearing more people's stories and expanding my social circle. Under that filter, the tablemates you meet share the same expectation. You can also choose an all-women table. I met a lot of cute older and younger sisters. Another thing that feels easy is the form of eating: you just talk through one meal, and at worst you can put your head down and eat. It's friendly to I people. I went in with that attitude, and the result far exceeded what I expected. Not only could most people talk well with each other, I also tried many new restaurants I wouldn't normally go to. And six people eating really lets you order a lot of dishes. You can pretty much order each signature dish once, and splitting the bill still comes out pretty worth it. I even ran into two friends at a Table for Six table whom I had met somewhere else! The algorithm brought us back together. In all of vast Beijing, how is that not a kind of fate? And I think this kind of event is much more reliable than randomly fishing for companions yourself. The organizers review users and pick reliable people. There is customer service, SOS, and other layers of safety. T46 tables are even less likely to be boring. They customize icebreaker cards based on the participants. There are tons of questions you can ask each other. It doesn't get awkward. Weekday tables skew younger. People talk less about work. There are more students and freelancers. Weekend tables are more mixed. You really can meet every industry. There's more talk about finance and AI. If anyone is interested in other events, or curious about mystery-box dinners, you can ask me. You're also welcome to connect.

这次回北京由于我的朋友们都已经陆续上班,平时略感无聊的我趁机体验了一下最近很火的盲盒饭局,和五个陌生人一起吃饭🥂本人本身就是E人热爱社交,去过几次体验感都不错,立马推荐给周围人,甚至我妈妈还去过一次哈哈哈!这篇来分享一下参加几次盲盒饭局的真实体验~ 熟悉我的朋友应该看过我之前在欧洲solo trip找饭搭子,早在几年前我也自己在🇬🇧格拉做过“陌生人小饭桌”。我很喜欢这种轻社交,不带目的性的陌生人社交局,因此盲盒饭局的性质很对我胃口。不会有必须要保持联系的压力,多半情况下就轻松一顿饭,避免了列表躺尸,这是我很喜欢的一点。我遇见的同桌都很有分寸感,可以明显感觉到大家都是抱着包容开放的心态认识新朋友的。在匹配前会选择来参加饭局的目的,我选择的是喜欢听更多人的故事,扩大社交圈。在这样的筛选机制下遇到的同桌都会有同样的预期,而且还可以选全女局,认识了好多可爱的姐姐妹妹💅🏻 另一个我觉得很轻松的点是吃饭这种形式,彼此之间就聊一顿饭,最差还可以闷头干饭,i人友好。抱着这样的心态去参加,结果是远超预期的,不仅大多数人都很能聊得来,也尝试了很多家自己平时不会去的新餐厅。并且6个人吃饭真的能点很多菜🤤🤤差不多招牌每个都能点一遍,a下来也蛮划算的。我还在[@Table for Six](https://www.xiaohongshu.com/user/profile/668fcaef000000000b030cfd?xsec_token=ABxdT8DeHlUzbbndObkL7sdTp_2gp6WeeK6cAciT4IHzE%3D&xsec_source=pc_user) 的局上遇到过两个在其他地方见过的朋友!算法完全把我们又重聚在一起,在整个茫茫北京这怎么不算一种缘分呢🫲🥹🫱 而且我觉得这种活动比自己瞎摇搭子靠谱多了,组织方会帮用户审核,挑选靠谱的人,有客服以及sos等多重安全保障。T46的局更不会无聊,会根据参与者定制卡牌破冰,有超级多问题可以相互交流,不会尴尬~周中的局更年轻,聊工作的少,学生和自由职业会比较多;周末的局更多元,真是各行各业都能遇到,聊金融聊AI的更多😇大家还有什么感兴趣的活动或者对盲盒饭局有什么好奇的都可以问我,也欢迎建联💃🏼

An I person braves a Beijing mystery-box drinking night. Chatting with the girls was really lovely

Translated from Chinese

I happened to come across a mystery-box drinking night online. I went with a friend just to try it, and I didn't expect to actually get matched to an all-women drinking table. It was a full-on unwind. Before I went I thought this drinking night would be awkward, but the moment I walked into the bar, two girls already seated smiled at us and greeted me. My uneasy mood was soothed at once. It was like falling headfirst into a warm quilt: soft, comfortable, relaxed. We started with simple hellos, got to know everyone through the labels on the cards, and mixed in interactive topics. We basically talked the whole night. The drinking night started at 8:30 in the evening, and we somehow talked until nearly 12. For those three-plus hours I didn't even glance at my phone. I was talking face to face the whole time. In a society where phones never leave our hands, that is really rare. The atmosphere this time was so good that after it ended we made a small group and added each other as friends, and we made plans to meet again later. I didn't expect that I, an I person, would actually make new friends through a mystery-box drinking night. The mystery-box drinking night was good, the girls were good, happy happy!

偶然在网上刷到了盲盒酒局的活动,抱着试一试的心态和朋友一起去参加了,没想到真的匹配到了👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻全女酒局🍻,一整个大放松🥳。 去之前还以为这次酒局会很尴尬,但是一进酒吧看到已经落座的两个女孩笑盈盈的看着我们和我打招呼,我忐忑不安的心情一下子被治愈了,就像是一头栽进温暖的被窝,柔软,舒适,放松☁️。 我们从简单的寒暄开始,通过卡片的标签了解大家,再穿插上互动话题,大家简直是热聊一整晚😄。晚上八点半开始的酒局,我们竟然就这样聊到了快十二点。这三个多小时我甚至都没有看一眼手机,而是一直在面对面交谈聊天,在现在这个手机不离手的社会真是太难得了🥹。 这次酒局氛围太好了,结束后我们还建了小群加了好友,大家约着后面一起再见面。没想到本i人就这样真的通过盲盒酒局交到了新朋友🥹。盲盒酒局好👍🏻,女孩们好👍🏻,开心开心!

A Beijing mystery-box drinking night that eased the loneliness | I finally found people on the same wavelength

Translated from Chinese

After working in Beijing for a long time, there are moments when I feel very lonely. Every day is the same two-point commute, soaked in work. My circle is so small I basically can't meet new friends. I always wonder what people my age do after work… Last week, on a rainy night, I went to a Beijing mystery-box drinking night on the chance it might work out. It opened a door to a new world! No socially anxious awkward small talk. The event had topic cards prepared. Questions you don't want to answer can be skipped. It wasn't awkward at all. The mood was relaxed. I talked with everyone for more than four hours. The people I was matched with span a huge range of jobs: a male college student, a forensic examiner, a producer… Listening to people from all kinds of work share their days was like hearing a few small life stories for free. The feeling of different ways of thinking bumping into each other is really strange. The little shop felt gentle. The dim lights came with a slightly tipsy filter. There were also small World Cup decorations, and the atmosphere was cranked all the way up. The one small downside: the drinks tasted ordinary. Friends with nothing to do on the weekend, I personally recommend going once to widen your social circle.

在北京工作久了,有那么一瞬间就会感觉很孤独 每天两点一线泡在工作里🫠 圈子窄到根本认识不到新朋友 总好奇同龄人下班都在干嘛… 上周雨夜抱着碰碰运气的心态,冲了北京盲盒酒局 直接打开新世界大门!👋 不用社恐式尬聊,活动准备了话题卡牌 不想回答的问题可以直接跳过,完全不尴尬 氛围很松弛,和大家聊了四个多小时🗣️ 匹配到的伙伴职业跨度超大 在校男大、法医、制片人…✍🏻 听各行各业的人分享日常 像免费听了几场人生小故事🥃 不同思维碰撞的感觉真的很奇妙 小店氛围温温柔柔,昏暗灯光自带微醺滤镜 还有世界杯小装饰,氛围感拉满 唯一小缺点:饮品口感普通 周末没事干的朋友,个人很推荐冲一次,拓宽社交圈

A Beijing weekend | Let candles stand in for every light

Translated from Chinese

A weekend in Beijing. The rain wouldn't stop. It was so damp it felt like I'd been teleported back to the south. A mystery-box drinking night with girls I didn't know. The more we talked, the more this AI matching felt oddly sharp… For example, of the six people, half were E and half were I. For example, of the six people, half came from the same company (? that's too much of a coincidence). Our jobs and ages were all different, and yet at certain moments we could catch each other's jokes exactly. After a few rounds of drinks, for one second I became an onlooker, floating in midair, watching six heads crowded together splitting two bowls of liangpi as a late-night snack. It felt like watching six fluffy little animals. This moment is precious. It seems to belong only to us.

周末的北京 雨下得没完没了 潮湿得仿佛瞬移回到南方 和陌生女孩们的盲盒酒局 越聊越觉得这个AI匹配机制有点诡异的灵敏… 比如六个人里一半是E一半是I 比如六个人里一半来自同一个公司(?也太巧 明明职业、年龄各不相同的我们 却能在某个瞬间精准地接住彼此的梗 酒过三巡的时刻 有那么一秒我变成一个旁观者 漂浮在半空里看六个脑袋凑在一起分两碗凉皮当夜宵 感觉看到了六只毛茸茸的小动物 这个时刻好珍贵 好像只属于我们

Beijing | A strange encounter, tonight

Translated from Chinese

Saturday night. Time to get my E self back. I was matched with five other tablemates I clicked with. We had things in common and different experiences. The conversation never died. We talked easily all the way until the place closed. (At the end we also got in on some delicious northeastern liangpi.) Whatever topic someone started got a serious reply. "There is actually someone like me who talks to the appliances at home." "There is actually someone so unlike me who eats breakfast every day, rain or shine." "There is actually someone this cool who gets a memorial tattoo every year." Those exclamations happened countless times. Grateful for tonight.

周六晚上 是时候恢复一下我的E人本色 匹配到聊得超投机的另外五位桌友👧 有共同话题 又有不同经历的我们 完全不冷场 一路畅快聊到了闭店 (最后还蹭上了美味的东北凉皮) 随意开启的话头都会被认真答复🥳 “居然有和我类似 会跟家里电器对话的人” “居然有和我这么不一样 每天风雨无阻吃早饭的人” “居然有这么酷的 每年给自己做一个纪念纹身的人” 以上的感叹发生了无数次🥹 感谢有今晚🍷

Came this weekend for a first try at a blind-box drinking night!

Translated from Chinese

A very interesting event. After you sign up, they match you with a suitable table based on the personality questionnaire you filled in. Everyone has a different introduction and a different summary word. At the end there are also the corresponding cards, and an introduction card that belongs only to you. You only learn the meeting place 24 hours before the event starts! You stay expectant the whole time, wanting to know where you will begin this strange experience. It is completely like coming to open a blind box! The place that opened this time was also very good, a high-rated tavern in Dongsi, and there were many snacks too. The setting was also very comfortable. The lights dim as night falls, very suitable for everyone to deeptalk together! Because the cards guide things, even an I person does not need to be afraid! Everyone talked especially happily. It felt very relaxed! I painlessly experienced five kinds of lives! Hearing other people's thoughts is also a very interesting thing! And everyone is a very excellent person! A really great experience. If you have just arrived in this city and want to meet new friends, or if you like lively chatting, you can come and try it!!!

非常有趣的一个活动呀 报名之后会根据填的性格问卷匹配合适的同桌 每个人都有不一样的介绍和总结词~ 最后也会有对应的卡牌和专属于自己的介绍卡 活动开始前24h才会知道见面地点哦!会一直保持期待想知道自己会在哪里开启这段奇妙的经历呀!完全是开盲盒来的! 这次开出来的环境也是非常好,在东四的一家高分酒馆,也有很多小吃。环境也非常舒服,灯光会随着夜晚降临调暗,很适合大家一起deeptalk! 因为有卡片的引导,即使是i人也不用怕!大家聊的都特别开心,感觉很松弛! 无痛体验了五种人生!直到别人的想法也是一见很有意思的事情呀!而且大家都是很优秀的人! 非常棒的一次体验呀,刚来这座城市想要认识新朋友或者喜欢热闹聊天的都可以来试试!!!

Our meeting was like:

Translated from Chinese

One day, a system appears and assigns you an invitation to go look for five girls similar to you. Your first meeting is arranged at a random bar on a Beijing street. Do you have the courage now to accept, and start a one night journey? We talked from each other's hobbies to our favorite movies, from events to the ability to choose, and from the blur of questions and answers we slowly built a clear picture of their lives, and from positive-feedback input I built the output of my thinking. When I answered that I choose freedom / stability, they noticed my pause and asked what I thought. I said I could not make a choice or be sure whether I am seeking, inside stability, the furthest boundary of freedom, or looking for stability inside freedom, because the things I am trying also include novelty I have never come into contact with, such as drinking and talking freely with a group of girls I was matched with and meeting for the first time. I was surprised at how many deep layers of a topic we could talk out of a simple explanation of a noun, and at finding, inside their telling, the part that belongs to me. We are going through different stages of life, but there are interesting similarities. After hearing everyone's suggestions, I also relaxed my fear of the future. It turns out we are all just here on Earth to take a walk. Relax. When we finished the last card task, Q30: nature, fate, surprise.... is our definition. If there is a next time, it would be in any of these scenes: Liangma River, a bar, Japanese food. We are all looking forward to the next time.

有一天,系统出现,给你分配邀请函去寻找和你相似的五个女孩,你们的第一次相遇安排在一个北京街头随机的bar,现在你有勇气接受去开启一个one night旅途吗? 我们从彼此的兴趣爱好聊到最爱的电影,从事件聊到选择的能力,从问答的模糊慢慢构建出清晰的她们的人生 ,从正反馈输入构建我的思维输出 当我回答选择自由/安稳,她们看出来我的停顿询问我的想法 我说我无法做出选择和确定, 自己是在安稳中寻求最大限度自由的边界,还是在自由中寻找安稳,因为我在尝试的事情也包含了我从未接触过的新奇,比如和一群第一次见面配对上的小女孩一起喝酒畅聊 我惊喜于我们可以从名词的简单解释中聊出多深层次的话题,从她们的叙事中找到属于我的那一部分,经历着人生不同的阶段但也有趣的相似,听完大家的建议也放松了自己对未来的恐惧。原来我们都只是来地球散散步,放轻松 在完成最后一个卡片任务Q30: 自然、缘分、惊喜….是我们的定义 如果还有下一次那会是在亮马河、酒吧、日料的任意场景 我们都在期盼下一次

What to do after work today | open a blind box

Translated from Chinese

At work it is spraying perfume. After work it is drinking by myself. When you get to the root of it, I am still dealing with alcohol. I have long been used to walking, after work, into a bar I often go to and having one drink, sitting at the bar and saying a couple of sentences to the owner or the bartender, or just sitting there and quietly enjoying a while of my own time alone. The T46 blind-box drinking gathering is a new find in my recent drinking alone. You only learn the place you are going to drink 24 hours before the gathering starts. (Of course it is generally in the city, otherwise there is not quite enough time. Although I am a P person, I really dislike being late!) It turns out T46 means table for six, hahahaha. Drinking together with 5 strangers, I had still felt a tiny bit nervous. It turned out they were all very warm girls. It did not go cold at all. Grateful! On the second floor of a very cozy little Western-style house. It seems the places they find are all little shops like this, not too loud, and with enough room for 6 people to move. They prepared question cards to break the ice and get to know each other. After it ended we also went to eat a late-night meal. On evenings in this season, a city walk in the plane-tree district makes a person happy.

上班是在喷香水 下班是自己喝酒 归根究底还是在和酒精打交道🚰 一直习惯下班后走进常去的bar喝一杯 坐在吧台和老板或者调酒师聊两句🥒或者就坐在那里默默享受一会儿自己的独处时间 T46盲盒酒局 最近独饮的新发现🤔 在酒局开始的24小时前才会得知去喝酒的地点(当然一般都在市区 不然有点来不及 虽然是p人 但很不喜欢迟到!⏰ T46原来是table for six的意思哈哈哈哈哈 和陌生的5个人一块喝酒本来还觉得有丢丢紧张 结果都是好亲切的女孩子 完全不冷场🥲感激! 在一个很温馨的小洋楼二楼 好像找的都是这样的小店 不会太吵又足够6个人活动的空间 准备了问题卡破冰互相了解 结束了还去吃了宵夜 这个季节的晚上在梧桐区city walk🌃让人幸福

0820, turning a birthday into a collision of ideas | 纵横四海 × T46

Translated from Chinese

I had the luck, on the day of my birthday, to take part in a blind-box drinking gathering this special and this meaningful. I rushed straight to the place covered in the smell of work. I thought the start would be a while of awkward chat, but after we met face to face I found it was a completely unexpected experience. A table of strangers, probably because we all listen to 四海, felt like the base color was very much on the same frequency. There was no need at all to think about how to break the ice. We sat down and, very naturally, just started talking. How should I describe this feeling? It is, very remarkable. Everyone was very sincere, and yet had a just-right sense of measure. What I took away that night was really a lot. Everyone's circumstances were each different. Spreading out along the podcast, we talked about life choices, the drain inside the workplace, and the confusion of a third-year graduate student about to step into society. We also, very realistically, asked inward: "What kind of person do I want to become," and "What kind of life, in the end, is the one I want?" I was amazed that the INTJ girl had both rational reviewing and the ability to carry things out fully on at the same time, and still had not lost the optimism, the cheer, and the odd cleverness that ought to belong to her at this age. I also really envied that steady force of self-affirmation on another product teammate at Duoduo. The idea of living that "one day is one lifetime," which Shiyi shared, was the biggest gain of the night. I, who am right in the middle of how to wlb, really felt after hearing it that this trip was not for nothing!! The rough sense is that a life is piled up from countless single days. How you spend each day is how you will spend this whole life. Focus and self-discipline, or putting things off and going through the motions, are all hidden in the small scattered matters of ordinary days. Do not always leave hope for later. From the present, go live the days you want. Each day is a life in miniature. We talked from 20:30 straight through to midnight, and still felt the words had not said all we meant. In the fast-rushing pace of Shanghai, getting a deep conversation like this, with no gain calculated into it, was a very precious birthday gift this year.

有幸在生日当天,参与这样一场特别又有意义的盲盒酒局🎂 满身班味儿直奔目的地,以为开始会尬聊一会儿来着,但见到面之后发现完全是意料之外的体验: 一桌陌生人,是因为都听四海的原因吧,感觉底色很同频。根本不需要想如何破冰,坐下很自然的直接开聊了 怎么去形容这种感觉呢?就是,很神奇。大家都是很真诚,但又有着恰到好处的分寸感。当天晚上收获真的很多! 大家境遇各不相同,顺着播客发散,聊人生选择、职场内耗、研三即将步入社会的迷茫。也很现实地向内发问:“我想成为什么样的人”、“到底什么样的生活才是我想要的” 惊叹于INTJ女孩儿理性复盘、执行力双双在线的同时,又没有丢失本应该属于自己这个年纪的乐观开朗、古灵精怪;也很羡慕另一个多多产品小伙伴身上那股稳稳的自我肯定的劲儿 十一分享的「一日即一生」的生活理念,是当晚最大收获,正处于如何wlb的我,听完真的觉得,这趟没白来!! 大意是,人生就是无数个一天堆砌起来的。你怎么过每一天,就会怎么过完这一生。专注、自律,或是拖延敷衍,全部都藏在日常细碎小事里。不要总把希望留给以后,从当下就去过你想要的日子,每一天都是一生的缩影。 从20:30一直聊到零点,仍觉言不尽意。 在节奏湍急的上海,收获这样一场不带功利的深度对谈,是今年很珍贵的生日礼物🎁

Shanghai blind-box drinking gathering: an all-women big discussion on making money!

Translated from Chinese

Table for Six, Shanghai blind-box drinking gathering, unboxing day — today's topic: the small matter of making money. Today I was matched to an all-women table. Everyone was excellent young people of different ages, from all walks of life, from a student who had just gotten into graduate school, to a female corporate executive, to an independent female boss. After everyone took turns introducing themselves and the icebreaking was done, we opened the topic and focused straight on women's predicament in companies dominated by male power. The opening turned toward how women refuse companies of male power and open their own doors in business. Later we also discussed AI's effect on how work develops, how to tell at work whether a job is a good job, the logic of life choices, plans for developing a side job, the necessity of building a personal IP, and so on. The pace the whole time was tight, with no empty talk. The whole process of the event was left in our own hands, with no one else interrupting. The friends who joined were all very sincere and glad to share. From their own posts and their experience, everyone offered newer discussions of work and angles on starting a business. Even when there were some questions, no one was stingy about giving suggestions I would not think of in ordinary times. Two more senior people ahead of us gave the young ones just entering the workplace a lot of advice on work and on the direction of a life. The course of the event was very brilliant. Lines worth quoting burst out again and again. "When you are young, do not save money. Go travel, go gain experience, and spend money investing in yourself, let money flow through you and truly become part of yourself." "Every life is a math problem. The key is each person's method of solving it." ... Most important, after the event ended today, I got to know 5 new friends! The rough process is: sign up — do the personality questions — matching — receive the invitation (the place blind box opens) — meet offline (the role blind box opens) — enjoy.

🍻Table for six上海盲盒酒局开盒日——今日话题:搞钱这个小事。 💃今天匹配到全女局,大家是不同年龄段,来自各行各业的优秀青年,从刚考研上岸的学生到企业女高管到独立女老板,大家轮番自我介绍破冰完后后,打开话题直接聚焦女性在男权主导企业困局开场转向女性如何拒绝男权企业开辟自己的商业门户,后面还讨论到AI对工作发展影响,工作中如何识别是否是一份好工作,人生选择逻辑,副业发展规划,个人IP打造必要性等,全程节奏紧张没有废话,活动流程全程独立自主,没有旁人打扰。 🗣️参与活动的朋友都很真诚且乐于分享,大家在各自岗位和经验提供了更新的工作探讨和创业视角,即使有一些问题,大家也都不吝啬的给出我平时想不到的建议。两位更资深的前辈给了初入职场的小朋友们很多工作和人生方向建议。活动过程非常精彩,金句频频爆出。 “年轻的时候不要攒钱,要去旅游去长见识花钱投资自己,让钱流过自己,真正成为自身一部分” “每个人生都是一道数学题,关键是看每个人解题方法。” … 👭最重要的是今日在活动结束之后,有认识到了5位新朋友! 🔁大体流程是:报名-做性格题-匹配-收到邀请(地点盲盒开盒)-线下见面(角色开盒)-enjoy🍺

Out of the room and raiding, I charged straight into an interesting blind-box table of mad people

Translated from Chinese

I cannot stand online dating-app socializing, swiping back and forth, anymore. So I went to socialize offline, hahahahaha. Yes, we ENFPs are forever looking forward to the surprise of a chance meeting. The moment I sat down I was praised, ahhh hahaha. The emotional value was filled right up. From family, how society develops, and personal choice, to history, geography, and traveling to countries, and also the five elements, the eight characters, and star signs, and we could also play little games (I like this so much; I go to bars for this), and I even learned very front-edge AI knowledge, hahaha. (Yes, there was a handsome finance guy, the only I person in the whole place, and we really toyed with him.) The people at the table all said I kept coming out with lines worth quoting, that the way I talk is very interesting, and that I am very suited to filming short bits, hahaha. It turned out the person beside me was a big name in self-media, hahaha. They agreed to take me as an apprentice. The offer is in hand. So satisfying, so satisfying. Shanghai really is suited to charging up offline.

我再也受不了线上dating app划来划去的社交 于是,我就去线下社交了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈 是的,我们ENFP就是永远期待偶遇惊喜 一落座就被夸啊啊啊哈哈哈,情绪价值拉满啰。 从家庭、社会发展、个人选择,到历史、地理、国家出行,还有五行八字和星座,还可以玩小游戏(好喜欢,我去酒吧就为了这个),甚至还学习到了很前沿的AI知识哈哈哈(是的 有一个帅气的金融哥,全场唯一i人,被我们狠狠玩弄)! 同桌们都说我金句频出,讲话很有趣,非常适合拍段子哈哈哈,结果旁边就是自媒体大佬哈哈哈,答应我收我为徒,offer到手。 太爽了太爽了,上海实在是适合线下充电🔋

Also a night for nothing

Translated from Chinese

I actually never expected I would talk so much in sync with friends I had just met. At the start we followed the guidance of the cards to share and to play games. Later we played "you have it, I don't," and slowly opened each person's fragments of a life. I found that everyone around me was this alive and this full, this interesting and this lovely. No one was only bent on pouring things out, and no one made not a sound. We took turns being the one putting words out, and also patiently served as each other's listeners. Laughing without holding back, we almost forgot time passing, until we heard rain falling on the bar's glass roof and only then realized with a start that this was a rainy night before the typhoon came. The rain grew heavier and heavier. We looked at each other and smiled with a shared understanding: then let us stay a little longer. So, even if in the days ahead the physical distance may be very far, at least on this night the distance between our hearts was especially near. The most beautiful meeting between people is maybe that a night like this, which cannot be copied, is already enough.

其实从来没预想过会和刚见面的朋友聊得如此投机 一开始跟随卡牌的指引进行分享和游戏 后来玩起「你有我没有」慢慢剖开各自的人生碎片 发现身边每个人都是如此鲜活又丰盈、有趣又可爱 没人只顾着倾诉,也没有人一声不吭 我们轮番做着输出者,也耐心当着彼此的听众 放肆地大笑几乎忘却了时间的流逝, 直到听到雨水滴落在酒馆的玻璃顶上 才惊觉这是台风来临前的雨夜 雨越下越大, 我们默契地相视一笑:那就再久一点吧 于是尽管在未来的日子里物理距离也许很遥远 但至少在这个夜晚我们的心的距离格外近 人与人之间最美好的相遇 也许就是这样的一个不可复制的夜晚已经足够

I will always remember today's blind-box drinking gathering

Translated from Chinese

I will always remember this blind-box drinking gathering. A group of friends who had never met sat around one table, talking about each person's life, regrets, and what they looked forward to. The glasses knocked together, and what was on our minds passed between us. No need to already be familiar, yet we fit especially well. It turns out that between strangers, you can also have a rare sense of ease.

永远会记住这场盲盒酒局 一群素未谋面的朋友围坐一桌 聊着各自的生活、遗憾与期待 酒杯相撞,心事互通 不用熟络,却格外合拍 原来陌生人之间,也能拥有难得的松弛感

The blind-box drinking gathering understands fate too well

Translated from Chinese

Who understands the happiness that random matching is for a big E person!! Checked in at an interest blind-box drinking gathering: tablemates are matched entirely by personal hobbies and a personality questionnaire. It is not awkwardly filling out the number. They are chat companions who really are on the same frequency. As an ENFJ I smoothly took the role of holding the atmosphere, and fully completed the small goal of not letting it go cold. The most interesting part was that the offline bar the system randomly assigned turned out to be an old place I had been to before. I rushed on short notice to an unknown gathering, and where I arrived was a place I knew. An unexpected sense of familiarity. The sense of fate was instantly filled up. One card question that left a deep impression was: "Have you ever met a gloomy mouse?" Hahahahaha. The tablemates I was matched with were each very clear-seeing and gentle. Someone shared a way of living that heals their own negative energy. Someone shared niche tricks for finding a companion when they go traveling, and all kinds of odd encounters. No matter what we talked about, everyone's views could always be on the same frequency. So impressive. We were clearly strangers meeting for the first time, yet we talked from scraps of daily life to thoughts inside, an easy deep talk the whole way, with no need for polite formulas and no need to pretend. I really like this feeling: jumping out of the fixed circle of day after day, and being arranged by random fate to meet. Unfamiliar people, a familiar little shop, three views on the same frequency. This unexpected and gentle socializing that broke out of the circle really did heal, hard, the tiredness in life.

谁懂随机匹配对于大E人的快乐!! 打卡兴趣盲盒酒局✌️:全靠个人爱好、性格问卷匹配同桌,不是尴尬凑数,是真的会同频的聊天搭子。 作为ENFJ顺利担任气氛担当,圆满完成不冷场的小目标😎😙✨ 最有意思的是系统随机分配的线下酒馆,居然是之前去过的老店。临时奔赴一场未知局,到的竟然是自己熟悉的地方。不期而遇的熟悉感,缘分感瞬间拉满🫧🍬 印象深刻的一个卡牌题是: 「你有没有遇到过阴暗鼠🐭?」哈哈哈哈哈哈 匹配到的桌友们个个都很通透和温柔,有人分享治愈自己负能量的生活方式,有人分享自己出去旅游找搭子的小众技巧和各种奇遇。无论聊什么,大家的观点总是可以同频,好牛👍 明明是第一次见面的陌生人,却从生活碎片聊到内心想法,全程轻松的deep talk,不用客套、不用伪装。 很喜欢这种感觉,跳出日复一日的固定圈子,被随机的缘分安排相遇。陌生的人、熟悉的小店、同频的三观,这场意外又温柔的破圈社交,真的狠狠治愈了生活中的疲惫感💛

The first social event of the new year, with five strangers

Translated from Chinese

On the first day of the new year, I did something that, for me, is not especially easy. I went to a blind-box drinking night. Six people, one table. Apart from me, the other five were complete strangers. What made it more interesting was that I found I was the only student at the table who had not really entered the workplace yet. Everyone came from all over, living in completely different cities and environments. Some people had already been working for several years, some had just changed tracks, and some were standing in a transitional period of life. Among us there wasn't really anyone who was especially E. At the start the conversation was a bit held back, but as we slowly adjusted to each other, it didn't feel awkward. Drinks came one glass after another, and the topics were slowly opened up. We talked about work, about hobbies, about the stage of life each of us was in, and also about some things that are not so "useful," but are very real. As a student, I actually got a lot of precious experience and nourishment from what the older brothers and sisters said. The feeling was not of being lectured. It was of seeing several different life paths ahead of time. In that atmosphere, identity seemed less important. No one was in a hurry to give advice, and no one talked down to anyone. We just listened to each other very seriously. At the end, we left New Year wishes for each other. Very simple, but very sincere. For me, this was the first social event of 2026, and a very gentle step out of my comfort zone. Happy New Year! This conversation will probably keep nourishing me, in some way, through the year ahead. Maybe later, Table for Six blind-box drinking nights will become one way I make friends.

新年第一天,我做了一件对我来说不算特别容易的事。 我参加了一场盲盒酒局。六个人,一张桌子,除了我以外,其他五个都是完全不认识的陌生人。更有意思的是,我发现自己是这桌唯一一个还没真正走进职场的学生。 大家来自天南海北,生活在完全不同的城市和环境里。有人已经工作了好几年,有人刚换了赛道,也有人正站在人生的过渡期。 我们之中其实没有那种特别 E 的人。一开始聊天有点克制,但慢慢磨合下来,也并不觉得尴尬。酒一杯一杯地上,话题也被慢慢打开。聊工作、聊爱好、聊各自的人生阶段,也聊一些没那么“有用”,但很真实的东西。 作为学生,我其实从哥哥姐姐们的发言里,得到了很多宝贵的经验和滋养。那种感觉不是被说教,而是提前看见了几种不同的生活路径。在这样的氛围里,身份好像没那么重要了。没有人急着给建议,也没有谁居高临下,就只是很认真地听彼此说话。 到最后,我们给彼此留下了新年祝福。很简单,但很真诚。对我来说,这是 2026年的第一场社交,也是一次很温和的走出舒适圈。 元旦快乐!这场聊天大概也会在接下来的一年里,以某种方式继续滋养我。也许以后,Table for Six盲盒酒局会成为我交朋友的一种方式~[害羞R]

Shanghai blind-box drinking night | talked with 5 strangers until I didn't want to go home

Translated from Chinese

I was a bit socially anxious at first, and then I had to admit it was good. The place: hidden near 巨富长. The brightness of the lights is just right. The sofa is so soft you sink in and cannot get out. The Aperol Spritz here is still that bitter-sweet little sweet water, but the alcohol is not casual. With a tolerance like mine, I actually blacked out after 6 glasses. The people: the blind box opened 5 interesting humans. A young woman who is a teacher, a guy from a big tech company, a younger girl who is a nurse... all of them can really talk. From complaining about work to recent dating, from MBTI to zodiac signs and Eight Characters, there was no joke they could not catch. The props: T46's topic cards are pretty good at this. The question that stayed with me most: "If we decided not to go home tonight, where would you want to take everyone?" My answer was: take everyone to the nearest 24-hour convenience store, buy oden and cold beer, then sit on the curb and watch the designated drivers race. It passed with every vote. We almost really went. Too bad we old people cannot stay up, haha. Anyway, a blind-box drinking night suits people who want to meet new friends on the weekend and do not want it to feel too deliberate. I will come again next time!

本来有点社恐,结果真香了。 🏠场所 藏在巨富长附近,灯光亮度刚刚好,沙发软到陷进去出不来。这里的Aperol Spritz‌,虽然依旧是苦甜小甜水,但是酒劲不马虎🍹酒量如我。居然6杯断片了 👯小伙伴 盲盒开出了5个有趣人类,做老师👩‍🏫的小姐姐、大厂🧑‍💻小哥、护士👩‍⚕️妹妹……都嘎嘎能聊,从工作吐槽到近期的dating,从MBTI聊到星座八字,就没有他们接不住的梗 🎲道具 T46的话题卡有点会,印象最深的问题:“如果我们决定今晚不回家,你会想带大家去哪里?” 我的答案是: 带大家去最近的24小时便利店,买关东煮和冰啤酒,然后坐在马路牙子上看代驾师傅飙车。 结果全票通过,差点真的去了,可惜老年人熬不动了😂 总之,盲盒酒局太适合周末想认识新朋友又不想太刻意的人了。下次还来!🙋

Shanghai | At first, everyone thought this was an ordinary drinking night

Translated from Chinese

I am about to turn 30. At a time like this, a person always falls into thinking. Life is an open wilderness. Besides the original track, where else can it go. I wanted to see more possibilities, and with that expectation I came here — T46. — When the agreed time came, I followed the instructions to the event location with an uneasy heart, picked up a free whiskey sour, and sat beside the long table waiting for everyone to arrive. — The box held all kinds of process cards, question cards, game cards, and dice. The person who designed the event clearly understands how awkward strangers can feel, and had set the ice-breaking devices in place beforehand. We talked from zodiac signs and tarot to MBTI, and found that we have a lot that is the same and also so different. We all keep pets, and we all do work related to design and product, but there are i's and e's, and there are j's and p's. Slowly the topics began to go deeper: travel, relationships, work, happiness and sadness, the things we want to change, similar confusions... — At the end there was a part: write "I thought you were —, but actually you are —." A first meeting between people is a classic projection. It is very easy to pour the love and the hate one felt toward people before onto someone one has just met. Old wounds ache faintly in a given moment. But projection itself is not right or wrong. It is only one of the ways we come to know the world. What matters is that we have the ability to correct it. She is not anyone else. At the end, I will come to know the real, complete her. —

马上30岁了,这个时候人总会陷入思考,人生是旷野,除了原本的轨道还可以走向哪里。我想要看到更多的可能,抱着这种期待来到了这里——T46 —— 到了约定的时间,我心怀忐忑的按照提示来到了活动的地点,领了🆓的威士忌酸,坐在长桌边等人齐。 —— 盒子里有各种流程卡、问题卡、游戏卡和骰子。显然设计活动的人很懂陌生人的尴尬,提前布好了破冰的机关。我们从星座塔罗,聊到了MBTI,发现我们有很多相同又那么不同,都养宠物都做着设计和产品相关的工作,但又有i有e,有j有p。慢慢的话题开始深入,旅行、感情、工作、快乐与悲伤,想要改变的,相似的困惑…… —— 结束时有个环节:写下“我以为你是——,但其实你是——”。人与人的初次相遇,就是一次经典投射,很轻易的会把对前人的爱恨,浇注到新认识的人身上,过去的创伤会在某个瞬间隐隐作痛,但投射本身没有对错,它只是我们认识世界的方式之一。重要的是我们要有矫正的能力。她不是其他任何人,在结束时,我会认识真实的、完整的她。 ——

Graduated in Shanghai and on my own; a blind-box drinking night unlocked new friends

Translated from Chinese

After graduation, classmates all went their separate ways. It is hard to find people I can still hang out with. I joined an offline event and learned that t46 uses an algorithm to match you with 5 people who have the same interests and hobbies. I have taken part three times, and here I have also met friends from different industries. Before you take part you need to fill out a questionnaire. The system matches participants according to personal traits. The bar address is given at random 24 hours before the event. Six people to a table, with name cards plus question-and-answer cards and game cards. What stayed with me was that the first time I went, it was a typhoon day. I didn't expect everyone to show up on time. We also talked until very late. After the shop closed, we moved somewhere else and kept going for a long time.

毕业后,同学们都各奔东西,很难再有可以玩到一起的人。 参加了一个线下活动,了解到了t46是根据算法给你匹配5兴趣爱好一样的人,我参加过三次,也在这里认识到了不同行业的朋友~ 参与前需要填写问卷,系统根据个人特质匹配参与者,酒馆地址会在活动前24小时随机告知。六人一桌,搭配姓名牌与问答、游戏互动卡~ 印象较深的是第一次参加时是在台风天,没想到大家都准时赴约了,我们也是聊到了很晚,门店打烊后又转场继续玩了很久。

Strongly recommending that girls in Shanghai all come join this event

Translated from Chinese

Yesterday I went to the very popular T46 social dinner in Shanghai. The experience felt maxed out on the spot. It started at 20:30, and we talked until 00:30 and still weren't done. I have to press this on every sister who wants to widen her circle and meet interesting souls. About the matching. After you sign up, you fill in a detailed personal profile and interest tags, and the organizers use that information to match you precisely with 5 strangers on a similar wavelength. All 6 people at our table showed up. The lineup was really something: a senior finance headhunter, a big name in the tech industry, an intern in e-commerce, and two lively girls who had just come to Shanghai and were exploring opportunities (two of the groups were friends who came together). Although everyone's backgrounds were different, there was no barrier when we talked. Different viewpoints actually struck a lot of sparks. Yesterday's highlight. On site there was a topic-card segment made for us. One question was: "Who do you think is the person who has influenced you the most?" This question was drawn by one of the girls who had come with a friend. When she looked at the friend in the clockwise direction (the one who came with her), we all thought she had made a mistake and wanted the other person to answer first. Instead she looked at her and said: "On this question, my answer is you." At that moment the whole table went quiet. Then she told their story, slowly and in detail. I heard how two people who had been parallel lines got tangled up where fate crossed, and then grew tighter, winding more and more. That fine flow of feeling moved everyone there. I even felt a bit like crying. This, I suppose, is the appeal of socializing with strangers. You don't only get to hear different views. You also get a glimpse of precious fragments of someone else's life. Why recommend that girls join? 1. A full sense of safety: the setting is open and transparent, and many girls come with friends. The atmosphere is very friendly and safe. 2. High-quality socializing: you can meet excellent seniors and peers from all kinds of work, and break the life circle you're already in. 3. In-depth exchange: it isn't that kind of pointless wine-and-dine gathering. It is a real, from-the-heart collision of ideas. If you are also in Shanghai, and if, outside busy work, you also want to add a bit of unknown surprise to life, you can give it a try. Maybe that "parallel lines" story of yours is waiting for you at the next drinks night or dinner.

昨天参加了上海超火的t46社交饭局,体验感直接拉满!20:30开始,最后聊到00:30都意犹未尽,必须按头安利给所有想拓展圈子、认识有趣灵魂的姐妹们👭 ✨ 关于匹配机制 报名后会填写详细的个人画像和兴趣标签,主办方会根据信息精准匹配同频的5位陌生人。我们这桌6人全员到齐,阵容简直绝了: 💼 一位资深金融猎头 💻 一位科技行业大佬 🛍️ 一位电商领域的实习生 🎒 还有两位刚来上海正在探索机会的活力女生(其中两组是结伴来的朋友) 大家虽然背景各异,但聊起来完全没有隔阂,反而因为视角的不同碰撞出超多火花! 💡 昨天的高光时刻 现场有专属的话题卡环节,其中一个问题是:“你认为对你影响最深的人是谁?” 这个问题是由其中一位结伴而来的女生抽取的。当她看向顺时针方向的朋友(也就是和她一起来的那位)时,我们都以为她弄错了想让对方先回答。 结果她看着对方说:“关于这个问题,我的答案是你。” 那一刻全场都安静了,接着她娓娓道来她们的故事。我听到了原本是两条平行线的人,如何在命运的交错中缠上,而后愈发紧密、越缠越绕的故事。那种细腻的情感流动,让在场每个人都深受触动,甚至有点想落泪😭。这就是陌生人社交的魅力吧,不仅能听到不同的见解,更能窥见他人生命中珍贵的片段。 🥂 为什么推荐女生参加? 1. 安全感满满:环境公开透明,且有很多女生结伴参加,氛围非常友善安全。 2. 高质量社交:能遇到各行各业优秀的前辈和同龄人,打破固有的生活圈子。 3. 深度交流:不是那种无效的酒肉局,而是真正走心的思想碰撞。 如果你也在上海,如果你也想在忙碌的工作之余,给生活加点未知的惊喜,可以尝试一下哦!说不定你的那个“平行线”故事,就在下一场酒局/饭局里等着你呢~

What do Shanghai's workhorses do after work?

Translated from Chinese

While scrolling Xiaohongshu, I happened to see a post called a mystery-box drinks night. Out of curiosity I clicked in, and found it was a group of strangers put together to drink. Maybe it's boring? If this were before, I definitely would not have had the impulse to want to go. But now I have become an adult who has entered the workplace, living a plain weekday life from 9 in the morning to 6 in the evening, and the circle around me is very narrow. I hope some interesting, fun things will happen. Plus my personality leans outgoing, so I just signed up, haha. I turned out to be the first to arrive. Damn it, two guys were late on top of that. The atmosphere there was okay. On the table were small cards of questions we had asked in advance, plus identity cards and some flow charts. As an E, I just started hosting, hahaha. Our topics directly helped us break the ice. Everyone was talking and laughing. I was really happy while we chatted. What stayed with me most was a guy who drank three or four drinks during a game. He said it was a reward, hahaha. Talented people from every line of work in Modu, hahaha. This guy is young and already financially free. He said every day is very boring. PS <let me be bored, hahaha. I can stand being financially free and bored>. We finished around 11. I also set a next time to go swimming with one girl. We live so close, aaa, it really is fate! Everyone was lovely. Hi, one girl looks like Li Meng. Truly beautiful! This really was an unforgettable experience for me.

刷小红书时,不经意间看到了一个po文叫盲盒酒局,由于好奇便点进去看,结果发现是一群陌生人被组在一块喝酒,可能是无聊?换做以前,我是肯定不会想去参加的冲动的,但是现在,我变成了步入职场的成年人,过着周九晚六的平淡的生活,周围圈子也很窄,我会希望有一些有趣好玩的事情发生,加上我本人性格偏外向,我便直接报名了哈哈,结果我是第一个到的,可恶,两个男生还迟到了。到现场氛围还可以,桌上放置了我们事先提问的小卡片,还有身份卡以及一些流程图,作为E人的我,直接就是做起了主持人哈哈哈,我们的话题直接帮助我们破冰,大家有说有笑,聊天过程中真的很开心呢,印象最深的是有个哥们玩游戏过程中喝了三四杯酒,他说这是奖励哈哈哈,身处魔都的各行各业的人才了哈哈哈,这哥们年纪轻轻已经财富自由了,他说每天很无聊,PS<让我无聊吧哈哈哈,我可以忍受财富自由且无聊> 最后我们结束大概在11点,我还约到了一个姐妹下次去游泳,我们住的好近aaa真的是缘分!大家都很美好啊,hi有一个姐妹长得像李梦,真美!这真的是我的一次难忘的经历咯

A person who draws randomly meets new friends in Shanghai on the weekend

Translated from Chinese

On ordinary days I'm busy with work every day, and after work I also livestream drawing. Alone in Shanghai there isn't much to do each day. Life is stuffed full by work (I don't get off until 8 at night — who can stand that). But on weekends, when I'm on my own, I go to mystery-box gatherings. I've met quite a few friends from all kinds of work. To say it straight, this is pretty meaningful for me. When people chat idly, each of them has their own story, and those stories sometimes give me ideas. The people I've met are all nice and friendly. There's a jianghu air to it, like those taverns in games where you trade information and intel, haha.

平时每天都在忙工作,下了班也会直播画画, 一个人在上海每天也没有什么事做,生活被工作塞的满满当当(晚上8点才下班这谁遭得住)但在周末一个人的时候会去盲盒局,认识不少各行各业的朋友,有一说一,这对我来说蛮有意义的,每个人在闲聊的时候都会有自己的故事,这些故事有时候会给我创造灵感!遇到的人也都很好很友善!有种游戏里交换信息和情报小酒馆的江湖气息哈哈

Guangzhou | An empty wine glass can hold a lot of stories

Translated from Chinese

As an INFP with nowhere to put my feelings, it's hard for me to start a conversation with strangers. I still got up the courage to go to a mystery-box drinking night. Here, no one asks where you came from. Introverted, sensitive, interesting souls are all accepted. The story starts when you tear open the mystery box. You use the box's questions as a lead, then slowly go deeper and trade the feelings at the bottom of your heart. Although everyone's life paths are very different, people on the same wavelength naturally end up talking together. One question asked everyone to recommend one thing. A wine glass was chosen. Someone said it was for holding all their feelings. Someone said it was one their hand could lift. Someone said they would leave one wine glass empty to hold everyone's stories. In the end everyone clinked glasses with a kind of unspoken agreement. It seems everyone is gentle inside. That's why we were matched to meet here.

作为一个情绪无处安放的INFP 很难跟陌生人搭话 但还是鼓起勇气参加了一场盲盒酒局 在这里 不问来路 接纳所有内向 感性 有趣的灵魂 故事从撕开盲盒开始 用盲盒的问题做引子 再慢慢深入地交换心底的情绪 虽然大家的人生轨迹都十分不同 但是同频的人自然能聊到一块 有一个问题是让大家种草一件东西 选择了一个酒杯 有人说用来装下所有情绪 有人说是他的手能举起的 有人说他会空着一个酒杯来装下大家的故事 最后大家有默契地碰了一杯 看来大家都是内心很温柔的人 才让我们匹配到这里相遇呀

Guangzhou mystery-box drinking night | Unlocking a very soothing kind of stranger socializing

Translated from Chinese

I usually drink with the same old group of friends. This was the first time I got up the courage to try a mystery-box drinking night. I only went in with a whatever, I'll-try-it attitude. I didn't expect to be completely caught by the surprise!! I had been worried the atmosphere would be awkward and the conversation would die. That worry was completely unnecessary!! The few of us fit together extremely well. We talked freely from 8:30 at night until after midnight. Following the mystery box's process cards, we slowly shared our own lives, past experiences, and small scattered stories. No awkward small talk, no forced politeness. Relaxed and comfortable the whole way. The strangest part was how high the fit was! Our mix was ENFJ + ENFP. Our values were on the same wavelength, our sense of humor matched, and our hobbies overlapped to a surprising degree. We all love sports, and our taste in music is highly similar. We recommended hidden-gem playlists and favorites to each other like crazy. Even our tastes lined up: we all love spicy food. On the spot we set a next time specifically to get a meal! When the program ended, nobody had had enough. We each ordered another small drink and kept chatting. We talked for more than half an hour, and we only reluctantly stopped when the owner closed. I genuinely fell for this kind of stranger socializing. No need to force yourself to go along. You easily meet people on the same wavelength. It soothed the everyday social tiredness.

平时喝酒都是和固定老友局 第一次鼓起勇气尝试盲盒酒局 本来只是抱着随便试试的心态 没想到直接被惊喜狠狠拿捏了!! 原本还担心氛围会尴尬冷场 结果完全多虑了!! 我们几个人超级合拍 从晚上8点半畅聊到凌晨12点多 跟着盲盒的流程卡 慢慢分享各自的生活、过往经历和细碎小故事 没有尬聊、没有刻意寒暄 全程松弛又舒服✨ 最奇妙的是超高契合度! 我们的组合是ENFJ+ENFP 三观同频、笑点一致 爱好更是惊人重合 都爱运动、听歌口味高度相似 互相疯狂安利宝藏歌单和心头好 连口味都统一爱吃辣🌶 当场敲定下次专门约饭! 流程结束大家完全没尽兴 又各自点了小酒继续唠嗑 畅聊了半个多小时 直到老板打烊才依依不舍结束 真心爱上这种陌生人社交 不用刻意迎合,轻松遇见同频的人 治愈了日常的社交疲惫🥰

The mystery-box table wasn't a miss. I talked so much I didn't want to leave | Guangzhou

Translated from Chinese

You who can talk this much actually found five people all at once. I went in aiming to catch wonderfully weird people, and the result was unexpectedly good too! New friends +4. On the way: uneasy plus curious. Would it be awkward? Or would I run into someone with that creepy, self-important guy vibe? At the venue: low mountain, foul water, and I met noise. The matching is pretty particular: you do a matching test inside T46. It's basically MBTI plus an interest questionnaire. That day I was put with 3E and 1I — of the four people, three were ENFP! Damn, I was recognized right away because the dog smell on me was too strong. (Is it that obvious?) I was surprised you can choose a mixed-gender group. I just wanted to hear views from different angles, so I went straight for it! (The unease was actually for this reason too. I rarely know any guys.) The topic that stuck with me most: absolute fairness vs. full of opportunity. Sister vv was the only one among us who chose fairness. Because there is no absolute now, she was more curious about what the world would be like "if there really were." Puppy-style directness vs. the other person's feelings and boundaries. The angle that shocked me: if the person across from you doesn't like you (friendship, a crush, or love), nothing you do is any use. If they do like you, there is already a more forgiving threshold. So just let yourself be happy. If you have something to say, say it. Say how you feel directly. Don't guess at each other! So getting out of overthinking is this simple. I used to overthink for nothing. Honestly, I had never thought of this angle before!! The best part was that when we later flipped through what was on the topic cards, we had already talked about it. I predicted your prediction!! I ordered a Jade Breath (non-alcoholic, green-apple flavor, really good!). The place was quiet, great for chatting and laughing. (The only reason I didn't drink is that I couldn't resist durian while wandering a supermarket. My life mattered more.) From 8:30 we talked until after 11. We talked until one table left and then another, and at the end we still weren't done and made plans for a late-night snack. Four new friends from different lines of work (IT, trade, games, and a public-sector job; besides me, basically people born after 1995). It's just nice to make some grown-up friends, haha. A few more years at work really does change your perspective. They gave me a lot of new channels of information, completely different from friends my own age. The hard problems in work and life — it turns out they've run into them too. After hearing how they handled them, the hurdles that felt impossible at the time, once you step over them, are just that. A table of strangers is actually zero burden. Pure newness plus sincerity. In the end I only want to say: my luck was decent! I got a full lineup of good people! They talked me happy! I hope next time we can still make plans to go out and hang.

[棒R]这么能聊的你居然一下子能找到5个 本来冲着捕捉神人去的,结果也是意外好结果了!新朋友👫+4 路上:忐忑+好奇,会不会尬?or遇到登味狂人? 到现场:低山臭水遇噪音 📋匹配机制挺特别的:在T46里做匹配测试,基本上是mbti+兴趣问卷 我那天分到3E1I——4个人里3个ENFP! wc我因为狗味太浓直接被认出来了(有这么明显吗) 👀居然能选混性别组,就想听听不同视角的看法,于是直接冲!(忐忑其实也是这个原因,很少认识男生) 💬最印象深刻的话题: ❓️绝对公平 vs 充满机遇 vv姐是我们之中唯一选公平的 因为现在没有绝对,所以更好奇“如果真有”世界会怎样 ❓️小狗式直球vs对方感受/边界分寸 ☝震惊的角度:如果对面不喜欢(友情/暧昧/爱情),你怎么做都🈚用;🥚对面喜欢你,本来就是会有更包容的一个阈值,so让自己开心就好,有话就说‼️直接表达自己的感受不要互相猜! [完啦R]原来破局内耗这么简单,我以前都白内耗了,讲真我以前没想到过这个角度!! 最绝的是,后面翻话题牌上的内容我们早就聊过了 我预判了你的预判!! [棒R]点了杯翡翠呼吸(无酒精青苹果味超好喝!)环境安静,超适合唠嗑大笑😆 (没喝酒单纯因为逛超市没忍住吃榴莲了小命要紧) 🕣从8点半聊到11点多,聊走一桌又一桌,最后还意犹未尽约了宵夜🍢 ✅4个各行各业的新朋友(IT/贸易/游戏/体制内,除了我基本95后) 就好交点大朋友哈哈哈[棒R] ✅多上几年班视角真的不一样,给了我超多新信息渠道,和同龄朋友完全不一样 ✅工作生活里的难题,原来他们也遇到过,听完他们的处理方式,觉得当时觉得过不去的坎,迈过去其实也就那样 💡陌生人局反而0️⃣负担 纯新鲜+真诚 最后只想说:运气不错!分到全好人阵容!给我聊爽了!希望下次还能约出来玩🙏

Guangzhou operations corporate-drone PLOG | swapping life modes for one night

Translated from Chinese

Life seems trapped in a seven-day loop of an infinite-cycle story. After starting work, life fell into a long standstill, going round and round, like the sticky heat wave of high summer that will not leave. After work I sink into the flood of what the internet pushes at me. Our sense of the outside world slowly fades. This numbness is far more deadly than a monotonous daily routine....... In this repeating rhythm, one weekend, after playing ball, reading, and finishing the work on hand, I signed up out of curiosity for a social blind-box drinking gathering. I filled out the long signup form and wrote down my own mysterious tags, and the organizer pieced together a table of strangers on a similar frequency. The people at the table then started a sincere conversation. Junjie quit his job to see the world, and on the road he met all kinds of people...... During his gap he followed a friend to interview many people who were further along. At a mountain estate he met a master who ferries others and also ferries himself, and he also heard a boss who runs a new-style incense business reinterpret death from a completely new angle. Talking to this point, death seems like a question a person cannot cross in a whole lifetime. Death ought to be held in awe. There is no need to stay sunk and avoid the subject. Even a materialist who chooses to make offerings to objects in order to place their longing is only leaving themselves a soft thought and some comfort. A topic card asked whether we are better at expressing love or at receiving love. We followed the subject of love into a heated discussion. Ah Xian said she does not know how to speak what she feels. She is willing to rush back and forth to meet her partner. She feels she gives quietly, yet the other person may not be able to read it. On what love is, someone once thought love was salvation. Someone lost themselves inside a relationship and tried to find themselves through another person. Later everyone came to understand that the lesson of the self can in the end only be finished by oneself, stumbling through it, and other people can only walk one stretch of the road with us. Junjie said you have to make yourself whole first, and then go love someone. For me, love is giving the other person what they truly need, not stuffing your own feelings out at them on your own terms. You have to learn to stand in the other person's place and think from there. As the topic cards threw out question after question, they also let me understand myself, and understand the people at the table, on a deeper level. For example, on walking out of a relationship, everyone felt there has never been a definite time limit. If we did not have to work, most people would want to travel around the world. Talking about plans, J people are used to planning school and work, but they all also understand that plans can never catch up with change. We described ourselves with images. Ah Xian and I both compared ourselves to the sea. The inside is relatively plain and calm, and relatively accepting, and the sea also carries a thread of sadness. In the joking around, a card asked who talks to small animals in a pinched cute voice, and everyone pointed straight at me. All right. I really am that kind of person, hehe. I am often stuck in my own small patch of the world, and I often feel bored and lonely. I long to travel far, but time and weariness always trap my steps. The meaning of travel, when you get down to it, is to go see the wide world, to meet people who are not the same, and to listen to all kinds of life stories. It turns out you do not have to cross a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers. You can also come across a group of strangers on the same frequency. In a city of steel and concrete, may we all be able to meet souls that fit each other.

人生好像被困在了七天循环的无限流, 工作之后,生活坠入漫长停滞, 周而复始,如同盛夏挥之不去的粘稠热浪。 下班便沉于互联网推送的洪流之中, 我们对外界的感知慢慢消退, 这份麻木, 远比单调的日常更加致命....... 就在这样重复的节奏里, 一个周末,打球、阅读、处理完手头工作之后, 我抱着好奇报名了一场社交盲盒酒局。 填完长长的报名表,写下自己的神秘标签,由主办方拼凑起一桌频率相近的陌生人。 一桌人,就此开启一场真诚的交谈。 俊杰辞去工作去看世界,在路上遇见形形色色的人......Gap期跟随友人采访许多前辈,在山庄遇见渡人亦渡己的大师,也听过新式经营香火生意的老板,用全新视角重新解读死亡。 谈到这里,死亡好像是人终其一生都无法跨越的命题,死亡应当心怀敬畏,不必一味消沉避讳。哪怕是唯物主义者,选择祭拜物件寄托思念,不过是给自己留一份柔软的念想与慰藉。 一张话题卡问我们擅长表达爱还是接受爱? 我们顺着爱的命题展开热烈讨论,阿贤说自己不懂诉说心意,愿意来回奔波来与伴侣见面,觉得默默付出,却未必能被对方读懂。 谈及爱是什么,有人曾以为爱是救赎;有人在感情里迷失自我,企图借别人找寻自己,后来大家都懂得,自我的课题终究只能自己跌跌撞撞完成,旁人只能陪我们走过一程。俊杰说要先圆满自己,再去爱人;于我而言,爱是给到对方真正需要的东西,不是自顾自地把心意强行塞出去,要学会站在他人的立场换位思考。 随着话题卡抛出一个个问题,也给我更深层次了解自己,了解同桌,比如走出一段关系,大家都觉得从来没有确切的期限;倘若不必工作,大多人都想环游世界;聊起计划,J人们习惯规划学业与工作,却也都明白,计划永远赶不上变化。我们用意象形容自己,我和阿贤都把自己比作海,内心比较平淡平静,比较包容,大海也带着一丝丝感伤。玩闹之间,一张卡片问谁会对着小动物用夹子音说话,所有人齐刷刷指向了我!好叭,我的确是这样的一个人,嘻嘻。 我常常困在自己狭小的一方天地, 时常觉得无聊又孤独。 向往远行,却总被时间和倦怠困住脚步, 旅行的意义,说到底,是去看广阔世界,去遇见不一样的人,聆听各式各样的人生故事。 原来也不必跨越千山万水, 也可以邂逅一群同频的陌生人。 钢筋水泥的城市里, 愿我们,都能够遇见彼此契合的灵魂。

What does an intern in Guangzhou who has not graduated do after work?

Translated from Chinese

I happened to scroll onto a T46 blind-box dinner, felt it was pretty interesting, and booked one to try. I am someone who fairly likes socializing, but now, when I want to meet new people, it is no longer simply in order to make friends. More of the time I want to come into contact with people I would never run into at all in ordinary life, and hear what they are doing and what they are thinking. Before I went this time I was actually a little worried, because this kind of stranger shared-table event easily turns into everyone not knowing what to talk about, or staying very polite the whole time. But after we actually sat down it was much more natural than I had imagined. The 6 people at our table were all about the same age, so not long after the start we got talking. The most interesting part was that, although everyone was close in age, the lives they are living now are completely different. Some are still in graduate school, some have just quit, and some have already been working for a while. I myself am still an intern who has not graduated, so listening to them talk about their jobs, graduate school, and how they are after quitting felt pretty new. And it was not that kind of very deliberate self-introduction gathering. The event has some conversation cards. The questions are actually all pretty everyday. They mainly talk about work and life, and also about the direction of life choices. Some of them get to things you care about more. Everyone talks on down along the questions, and it easily pulls in your own experience. What left a deeper impression on me was a girl who had quit not long before. She talked about why she left her last job, and what she does every day now after quitting. Another graduate student also talked about things at school. If it is an ordinary commute to work and back, I actually have a hard time meeting these people who are in completely different states of life. And the atmosphere among the girls at our table was especially good. There was none of that feeling of testing each other the first time you meet. Later it was no longer the cards asking something and us talking about that. Basically we talked wherever the thought went. A few times, one question even went far off the track. Everyone complained together and told their own experiences. The whole process was much more relaxed than I had expected. This is also the part of this time that felt better to me. I have also joined some similar social events before. Some event formats are good in themselves, but if the people at the table are in states that differ too much, there is still a bit of little being said. The people matched this time were all about my age, so it was clearly easier to get talking together. Although everyone came from completely different fields, that made it more interesting, because you hear a lot of things you originally did not know at all. I was also fairly satisfied on the point of the restaurant. The restaurants T46 picks are all in the center of Guangzhou. They are not the kind of place found at the last minute just in order to hold an event. They are all Western restaurants that have been open for a fairly long time. The setting of the restaurant I went to this time was also pretty good. It was in Tianhe District. When the restaurant was revealed I was quite looking forward to it. For me, what was more special this time was not actually that I had met a few new friends. It was that on one evening I sat at one table with 6 people I had not known at all, and heard 6 completely different lives. For me, whose days are basically just the two points of the company and home, this feeling was pretty new. At least for those few hours, I felt I had briefly jumped out of my original circle of life.

偶然刷到T46盲盒饭局,感觉还挺有意思的,就约了一场试试看 我是一个比较喜欢社交的人,但我现在想认识新的人,已经不是单纯为了交朋友了。更多时候是想接触一些平时生活里完全碰不到的人,听听他们在做什么想什么 这次去之前我其实有一点担心,因为这种陌生人拼桌的活动容易出现大家都不知道聊什么,或者一直很客套的情况。但实际坐下来之后比我想象中自然很多。我们这一桌6个人年纪都差不多,所以刚开始没多久就聊开了。最有趣的是,虽然大家年纪接近,但现在在过的生活完全不一样 有还在读研的有刚刚辞职的,也有人已经工作一段时间了。我自己还是一个没毕业的实习生,所以听他们讲自己的工作、读研、辞职之后的状态,会觉得挺新鲜的。而且不是那种很刻意的自我介绍局 活动里会有一些聊天卡片,问题其实都挺日常的,主要是聊工作和生活还有是聊人生选择的方向。还有一些会聊到自己比较在意的事情。大家顺着问题往下聊,很容易会扯到自己的经历。我印象比较深的是,有一个女生刚辞职不久,她聊到自己为什么离开上一份工作,辞职之后现在每天在做什么。另一个研究生也会讲学校的事情 平时如果是正常上下班,我其实很难认识到这些完全不同生活状态的人。而且我们这一桌女生之间的氛围特别好,没有那种第一次见面互相试探的感觉。后面已经不是卡片问什么我们聊什么了,基本上就是想到哪里聊到哪里 有几次甚至一个问题直接聊岔出去很远,大家一起吐槽讲自己的经历,整个过程比我预想中轻松很多。这也是这次让我体验比较好的地方 以前我也参加过一些类似的社交活动,有的活动形式本身很好,但是同桌的人如果状态差太多,还是会有一点话少。这次匹配到的几个人都和我差不多年纪,会明显更容易聊到一起。虽然大家来自完全不同的领域,但反而会更有意思,因为你会听到很多自己原本完全不知道的东西 餐厅这点我也还挺满意的。T46选的餐厅都在广州市中心,不是那种为了做活动临时找的地方,都是营业比较久的西餐厅。我这次去的餐厅环境也还不错,选在天河区,当时揭晓餐厅的时候我还挺期待的。 对我来说,这次比较特别的地方其实不是认识了几个新朋友。而是某一个晚上我跟6个原本完全不认识的人坐在一张桌子上,听到了6种完全不一样的生活。对于每天基本就是公司、家两点一线的我来说,这种感觉还挺新鲜的至少那几个小时,会觉得自己短暂地跳出了原来的生活圈子

A brief same frequency healed the dull days in Guangzhou

Translated from Chinese

Telling things is always in the habit of using set words to trap those flowing, hazy experiences of life. Tired of useless socializing that forces a lively mood. A T46 blind-box drinking gathering is just the opposite. An unknown blind-box invitation. An algorithm screens strangers on the same frequency. A slightly tipsy long talk. No need to make small talk on purpose. No need to strike up a conversation for gain. With the topic cards, slowly open yourself. In a relaxed deeptalk, exchange stories and thoughts. Collide with souls of different experience. We stepped out of our fixed circles of life, and in the small pieces of talk we saw ourselves clearly again. A brief meeting on the same frequency healed the dullness of ordinary days. After daybreak, tomorrow is another day.

叙述总习惯用既定的言语 困住那些流动 朦胧的人生体验 厌倦强行热闹的无效社交 而T46盲盒酒局 刚好相反🍸 一场未知的盲盒邀约 算法筛选同频的陌生人 微醺漫谈 不必刻意寒暄 无需功利搭讪 借着话题卡牌慢慢打开自己 在松弛的deeptalk里交换故事与思绪 和不同阅历的灵魂相撞💬 我们跳出固有的生活圈子 在细碎交谈中重新看清自我 短暂同频的相逢 治愈日常的沉闷 天亮之后 Tomorrow is another day

First-year MTI student | I went to a blind-box drinking night the week before starting work

Translated from Chinese

On Saturday I was out all day. I had originally come out for a medical checkup, but my home is fairly far from the city center, so I figured I might as well go out and have some fun. The checkup found a lot of problems with my teeth. I had two front teeth filled. No wonder the private clinic's service is good. So that's how it is, hhh. In the afternoon I booked 45 minutes of tuina and massage. After it ended I rested in the room and watched TV. 开端 is so good. How am I only watching it now! I had a simple dinner at the supermarket, then went to the blind-box drinking night! I myself am someone who likes chatting. For that reason I even organized my own coffee chats. Later I scrolled onto T46's blind-box drinking nights. I like this matching mechanism. An all-women table makes me feel more at ease. I figured that, as women together, we would have more to talk about. And that was in fact the case. All six of us were I people, and the atmosphere was fairly easy together. T46 had also prepared cards. A real surprise! Every question was just right. They didn't pry too far into private matters, but they still made you think, and the conversation didn't die. There were also little interactive games, very suitable for a chatting gathering. Actually, strangers you meet in passing and see only once can make me let my guard down. I thought, after tonight I might not know any of them again, so I can say whatever I want. Actually T46 has a mutual-selection mechanism. After the event, you can see each other's WeChat only if both sides select each other. It is just that I hoped to keep time stopped on that night.

周六在外面玩了一天,原本是出来体检的,但是我家离市中心比较远,干脆出来玩一下吧。 体检发现牙齿有很多问题,补了两颗门牙。怪不得私人诊所服务好,原来是这样hhh 下午约了45分钟的推拿和按摩,结束之后在房间里休息,看电视。《开端》这么好看我怎么才看! 在超市简单吃了晚饭,就去盲盒酒局了!我本身就是喜欢聊天的人,为此还自己组建coffee chat,后来刷到T46的盲盒酒局,我喜欢这种匹配机制,全女局更令我放心,觉得同为女生会更有话题。 事实确实如此。我们六个都是i人,气场也比较融洽。T46还准备了卡牌,真的很惊喜!每一个问题都恰到好处,不会过多打探隐私,也能够引发思考,不会冷场,还有互动小游戏,很适合聊天局。 其实,萍水相逢、只见一次的陌生人反而能让我放下戒备,心想,过了今晚,我或许不会再认识大家,可以畅所欲言。其实T46有一个互选机制,活动结束后,双方互选了才能看见vx。只不过,我希望把时间停留在那个晚上。

An intern's first time charging into a blind-box drinking night (the successful version)

Translated from Chinese

Babe, if you are the one fighting to convert to a full-time job, careful and cautious at your desk during the day, running things through your head three times before you hand them in — a summer intern — then after work, you can come open a blind-box drinking night. You will sit down among five strangers. After you sign up, your heart is still uneasy, but the matching mechanism is more interesting than you imagined. Everyone shares some common thread, yet they come from completely different industries. When you talk, there is both overlap and collision. You will notice an I-person girl. She talks the least of anyone there, but every sentence makes people want to pick it up. When others speak, she is really listening: that quiet listening, without interrupting, that makes you feel respected. She can always toss a topic to a silent person at just the right moment, and help everyone carry the talk forward. You will find yourself moved, without meaning to, by this gentleness and keenness that come from a woman. You will also meet a girl who is the complete opposite of you. She speaks directly and cleanly. When she throws a view out, you even want to argue back. But babe, the essence of socializing is an exchange of value, so good socializing is not necessarily people whose values match. On her you will see something you yourself lack — not tangling yourself up, not wearing yourself out inside. You may not agree, but it is worth learning. You will find yourself noticing the next table. Those are the "lightly mature" seniors. Everyone is in their late twenties or early thirties, talking about industries, about choices, about stages of life. In what they say, you will feel the ease of people who have already been through it. Then you will look forward and wonder whether, next time, you will have become one of them too. Babe, clock out! The words you start and then swallow — you don't have to think them over three times. Here you can talk with strangers about the confusion you don't dare talk about during the day, the real picture behind different industries, the anxiety and the hope you have about the future. There is no relationship of interests. There is no one who has to judge anyone. Here, what the blind box opens is not a surprise. It is a group of strangers treating each other with sincerity.

宝贝,如果你是那个要争取转正的,白天在工位上要小心翼翼,交付前要在脑子里过三遍的暑期实习生—— 那下班后,你可以来拆一场盲盒酒局。 你会坐进五个陌生人中间,报名后心里还在忐忑,但匹配机制比你想象中有意思,大家有某种共性,却又来自完全不同的行业,聊起来既有交集又有碰撞。 你会注意到一个i人女孩,全场话最少,但每句话都让人想接。别人说话时她是真的在听,那种安静的,不打断的,让你觉得被尊重的听。她总能恰到好处地抛话题给沉默的人,帮大家把话接下去。你会不自觉地为这种来自女性的温柔和敏锐而感动。 你还会遇到一个和你完全相反的女生,说话直接利落,观点抛出来的时候你甚至想反驳。但宝贝,社交的本质是价值互换,所以好的社交也不一定是价值相投的。你会在她身上看到一种自己缺少的东西——不纠结不内耗。未必认同,但值得学习。 你会不自觉留意隔壁桌,那是“轻熟版”的前辈们,大家在二十末三十初的年纪,聊行业、聊选择、聊人生阶段。你会在他们话语里感受到一种过来人的松弛。那时候你会期待,下次的你,会不会也成为了他们。 宝贝,下班!你的欲言又止,可以不用再三思。在这里你可以和陌生人聊白天不敢聊的困惑,不同行业幕后的真实,对未来的焦虑和期待——没有利益关系,没有谁要评判谁。在这,盲盒拆开的不是惊喜,是一群陌生人的真诚相待。

Six people, and we go

Translated from Chinese

I just came to Shenzhen for an internship, and I had been wanting to make some interesting new friends. I scrolled onto this event, and it became the most interesting one among the events I have joined recently. The overall logic is that they match five other people according to traits such as MBTI and hobbies. After you arrive at the assigned place, you follow the instructions in the card box and take part in some small games to break the ice. First, a word of praise for the bar's environment. It was completely beyond my expectations. The decor has a real vibe, and every drink has its own character. It is the kind of place I would come back to on my own later. Strongly recommended! Then, about this event's theme and how the games were set up. The event I signed up for was themed on making money. Hearing everyone talk about small ideas for making money inside their own fields, I learned a lot. I even wanted, right after it ended, to go run some of the ideas through AI myself, haha. Plus: p6 was a very cute little skull cup I saw at the time. It looked dazed. All in all, if there are similar events later, I still really want to go. Especially if there is a making-money theme again, haha.

最近刚来深圳实习,一直想交点有趣的新朋友,就刷到了这个活动,也成功成为我最近参加的活动里最有趣的一次~ 整体逻辑就是会根据mbti,兴趣爱好等特征来匹配另外五个人,抵达指定地点后,根据卡盒里的指示参加一些小游戏来破冰 🍹首先夸夸bar的环境,完全出乎我的预期,装修很有vibe,每个酒也都好有特色,是后面会自己再来的那种,强推! 🃏再说这次活动的主题以及游戏的设置,我报名的这次活动是以搞钱为主题,听到大家谈论自己领域内的一些搞钱小思路,学习到了很多,甚至想结束以后就马上自己用ai跑跑看一些想法哈哈哈 plus:p6是当时看到的一只很萌的☠️骷髅小水杯,呆呆的感觉 总而言之,后面有类似的活动还是很想再去参与的~尤其是再有搞钱💰的主题哈哈哈

Work is a chaotic rush, done efficiently; after work, one drink and a slow talk

Translated from Chinese

I am a pure I person. My usual fixed weekend plan is to go hiking alone and quietly spend time with nature. But recently a muscle strain forced me to lie flat, and I suddenly realized something: after graduation, it seems I really have not made a new friend in a long time. Hiking feels great, but a mountain will not talk with you deep into the night and still be unwilling to leave. So, as if something pushed me, I signed up for a T46 blind-box drinking night. Honestly, when I used to go to bars I drank quietly by myself, at most saying a couple of sentences to the bartender. I never thought of striking up a conversation with the person next to me. Social anxiety itself, that's me. And then! A blind-box drinking night really is different. Six people showed up. More or less, each of them had a point in common with me — there was actually someone from my hometown, a schoolmate, someone in the same line of work, and someone with the same MBTI... Whether it was the interactive questions on the game cards or just casual chat, we talked to the point where we could not stop. If we did not all live far apart, and if we had not had to break up at 11, I feel we could have talked until dawn. Anyway, I am very glad I got to meet everyone, although they probably will not see this post, haha.

我一个纯I人,一般周末的固定节目是独自去徒步,安静地跟大自然相处。 但最近肌肉劳损被迫躺平,突然意识到一件事:毕业以后,好像真的很久没交到新朋友了。 爬山是爽,但山不会跟你聊到深夜还舍不得走啊⛰️ 于是,鬼使神差报了T46的盲盒酒局。 说实话,以前去酒吧都是一个人默默喝,顶多跟调酒师聊两句,从来没想过跟旁边的人搭讪。社恐本恐了属于是😂 结果!盲盒酒局还真就不一样哦 酒局到场6个人,多多少少都跟我有共鸣点——居然有老乡、有校友、有同行、有相同MBTI… 无论是游戏卡的互动问题,还是随便聊聊,都聊到停不下来那种。 要不是大家住得都不近,11点不得不散场,我感觉能聊到天亮🌅 总之,很高兴能认识大家,虽然大家估计看不到这条,哈哈🤝

The body rewards, in time, people who "go out." The world does too

Translated from Chinese

Yesterday I scrolled onto a video of rain in Shaoxing. The hazy, restrained grace and tenderness of Jiangnan stirred my heart again. I sent it to a friend in Nanjing. She said: "With the degree of freedom you have now, you are free in terms of time." In theory, yes. But my mind is not free. I enjoy, too much, the emptying-out that comes after a stretch of full, busy time. And now the state of my life has stopped flowing, and I feel I have gone still. The body being still is not frightening. What is frightening is the mind sinking into quiet. "When you are still, you are a container, and all emotions settle into silt." The reason for the stillness is simple — in a familiar environment, the information you take in is highly repetitive, thinking gradually hardens, the view narrows, and curiosity is lost. Like a machine with no oil, the movements grow dull and slow until it ages. Going back and forth, agonizing and thinking over whether to act, is also a drain on willpower, like an unoiled machine making a last stand and decaying faster. The silt was stirred again because last night I went to a blind-box drinking night and met five vivid, interesting living people. The premise of everything unknown was that everyone was open, inclusive, and curious. That let me, in a comfortable and natural posture, go visit other people's lives, and let lively thoughts and varied ways of living enter my system again. Running water does not go stale. A person's spirit, cognition, and emotions need flow with the outside world in order to stay fresh. Staying fresh is the key to life making a sound. For that, I need to keep an open channel of perception, so the world can touch me. For example, even if it is only a walk. Unless someone is a total shut-in, most people, when they go out, quickly feel light and pleased. That is actually because sunlight on the skin stimulates the synthesis of vitamin D and regulates the level of serotonin, so mood improves, and a clear, pleasant feeling follows. And there is also dopamine, which supplies energy. The body always rewards, in time, the person who goes out. Because of this, I believe completely in the positive-cycle miracles a human body can produce — go out, get washed over by new things, openly welcome "gifts of randomness," personal improvement, calibrate one's knowledge of oneself, spark wisdom and raise the power to act, build a structure for life and enrich the experience of living, become more willing to go out, and so on. "Keep swaying, my naive old friend." "Only a rolling stone can stay free of moss."

昨天刷到绍兴下雨的视频,江南雾气迷蒙的婉约与柔情重新搅动心魂。发给南京的好友,她说: “以你现在的自由程度,时间上是自由的。” 理论上是,但我心不自由。 我过于享受一段充实的忙碌之后的放空,而如今,生活状态停止流动,我感觉自己静止了。身体的静止不可怕,可怕的是心神的沉寂。“当你静止时,你是容器,所有情绪都沉淀成淤泥。” 静止的原因很简单——在熟悉的环境里,接收的信息高度重复,思维逐渐固化,视野缩窄,失去好奇心。如同机器没有机油,动作迟钝缓慢直至老化。 反复纠结和思考是否要做出行动同样也是一种意志力损耗,如同没油的机器负隅顽抗,加速衰败。 淤泥再次被搅动源于昨晚参加了一趟盲盒酒局,遇到五个鲜明有趣的生命个体。所有未知的前提是所有人的开放、包容与好奇心,这得以让我以一个舒适自然的姿态,去参观别人的人生,让灵动的思想和多样的生活方式重新进入我的体系。 水流不腐,人的精神、认知和情绪,需要与外界的流动来保持鲜活。保持鲜活是生命发出声响的关键,为此,我需要保持一个开放的感知通道,让世界能够触碰到我。 比如哪怕只是散步。 除非死宅,大多数人出门时,总是会很快感觉到轻快和愉悦,这其实是因为阳光照在皮肤上,刺激维生素D的合成,调控着血清素的水平,情绪因此改善,清醒愉悦感随之而来。 又还有多巴胺提供活力。 身体总会及时奖赏出门的人。 正因如此,我无比相信人体所能发生的正循环奇迹—— 出门-接受新事物冲刷-开放式迎接“随机性馈赠”-个人提升-校准自我认知-激发智慧提升行动力-构建生命架构丰富生命体验-更愿意出门-...... “继续摇摆吧,我的天真老朋友。” “只有滚动的石头,才能不长青苔。”

Zhongda master's year 0 | Met 5 strangers at a Shenzhen mystery-box drinks night

Translated from Chinese

On Saturday I went to a mystery-box drinks night. Through an online survey done in advance, everyone was matched to a table. The matching still has something to it, hahaha! It directly collected a full set of big-company "coworker attributes," maxed out. Everyone was a girl, and the chatting was pleasant too. Each person had an introduction card of her own. The organizers also gave us topic cards made for us. Love, career, life, and so on — we talked through all of it! You could clearly feel that everyone is very strong in their own field. There were people in AI product, people in MKT, and people in project management. I am currently interning in overseas mkt, and I gained a lot from everyone's different professional angles. It was my first time trying this kind of stranger socializing. From the icebreaker at the very start all the way later, everyone was very willing to think over whatever they themselves had happened to hear. It really is a very interesting thing, and you can also make friends with each other! In particular, I learned a lot of work habits and suggestions from the older girls. All of it was very helpful. I heard there are mystery-box dinners on weekdays too! I'll join again next time.

周六参加了一场盲盒酒局 大家通过提前线上调研匹配到了一个桌位 匹配机制还是有点东西哈哈哈哈!直接集齐各个大厂“同事属性”拉满 大家都是女生聊天也很愉快~每个人都有专属于自己的介绍卡牌 主办方也为我们提供了专属定制话题卡 包括爱情、事业、生活等等啥都聊个遍!也能明显感觉到大家在各自领域都很厉害!有AI产品方向的 MKT方向的还有项目管理方向的 作为目前实习海外mkt方向的我也从大家不同的职业视角收获很多 第一次体验这种陌生社交,大家从刚开始的破冰到后面都非常愿意思想自己的随便所闻,真的是一个非常有意思的事情,而且还能和互相交朋友!尤其是和姐姐们学习到很多工作习惯和建议 都很有帮助听说周中还有盲盒饭局!等下次再参加

Shenzhen social mystery box | A real surprise party

Translated from Chinese

Recently my courses ended, so things are relatively easy. But day to day there isn't much to do for fun. Most of the time I'm just in the dorm. The bad part of studying away from home is that my friends are all back there, and I don't have much of a social life here. There are few chances to come into contact with new fields or meet new friends. A while ago I happened to learn about the social mystery box. Out of curiosity I signed up. I completely did not expect an experience this happy!! Before the matching, an AI assistant asks you questions. The questions mainly include MBTI, personality, topics you're interested in, and so on. Actually, when I first did this test, I didn't hold out much hope, because I had filled in similar questionnaires before. But I never would have thought it!! The five tablemates matched to me really did go far past what I expected!! Lately, because of some questions about future career planning, I've been a little lost. Among the matched tablemates, two are already working, and one of them is the job I'm aiming for. I was really very surprised at the time, so I talked with them a lot, about choosing a career and about what abilities are required, and we also exchanged a bit of how the same question looks from the different angles of working and of studying. In short, I gained a great deal. The remaining tablemates were matched according to my interests and hobbies. Everyone got along very well, and I even made a new friend from my own school. This was simply a very happy experience in my dull life as a graduate student!! The one I went to was an all-women table. Every girl had a good personality, and they matched one E to the five of us I's, so we were never left unable to speak because of awkwardness. The chat went very well! And with the topic cards they provided, there was no need at all to worry about having nothing to say. There were also some questions that make you think, and for some of the confusion I've had lately there were answers worth thinking hard about. In short, it was an evening of talking to our fill. Everyone thought we'd hang around a bit and go back, but we didn't break up until the early morning. After I got back I couldn't wait to share this experience with my friends. They all thought it was quite good too, and hoped it could spread across the whole country, hahaha. I'll recommend it to people as well. I think, for me, this event really can count as an easy, pleasant exchange. Very stress-relieving. This I is wildly happy!!

最近这段时间课程结束,比较轻松,但是平时没有什么娱乐活动,大部分的时间就是在寝室里,在外地读书的不好就是朋友都在家那边,自己在这里没什么社交,很少有机会可以去接触新的领域,认识新的朋友,前段时间偶然了解到社交盲盒,出于好奇就报了名,完全没想到会有这么开心的一次体验!! 在匹配之前,它会有AI小助手来向你进行提问,问题主要包含mbti,性格,感兴趣的话题等等,其实最开始在做这个测试的时候并没有抱太大的希望,因为之前也有填过类似的问卷,但是万万没想到!!给我匹配的五个同桌真的肥肠超出我的预期!! 我最近因为一些未来职业规划的问题有一点迷茫,匹配的同桌里有两个是已经工作的,而且有一个是我的目标职业,当时真的非常惊喜,就和她们聊了很多,关于职业选择,关于能力要求,也交换了一点工作和读书不同视角下对同个问题的认知,总之收获非常大。剩下的同桌是根据我的兴趣爱好去匹配的,大家也都很投缘,而且我还结交到了同校的新朋友,这简直是我枯燥的读研生活里非常开心的一次体验了!! 我去的全女局,每个姐妹都性格很好,而且给我们5个i人匹配了一个e人,就完全不会因为尴尬说不出话,聊的很好!再加上提供的话题卡片,根本不用担心没话聊,里面还会有一些比较有思考性的问题,对我近期的一些迷茫也有了一些值得深思的回答。总之就是聊的很尽兴的一晚上,大家都以为玩一会就回去了,结果聊到凌晨才散场。回去之后就迫不及待的和我的朋友们分享这次经历,大家也都觉得很不错,希望可以全国普及哈哈哈哈哈,也安利给大家,我认为这个活动对我来说真的可以算是一次轻松、愉悦的交流,很解压,本i人狂喜!!

Mystery-box drinks night | A new experience of socializing while drifting in Shenzhen

Translated from Chinese

I had only meant to go have a drink after work on a weekday. I didn't expect us to talk into the early morning. Sat down at half past eight. Ordered a cocktail. Saw the labels of the people at the table, and started looking forward to the night. "A composed, calm problem-solver." "A sharp roast-style graduate student." "A socially anxious E who loves trying new things." "A practical doer who pushes the topic forward." "A J." And me — "A deep-talk type with a sense of rhythm." Six strangers. Six completely different lives. Like having barged, by mistake, into a short stretch of each other's lives. Someone talked about work. Someone talked about love. Someone talked about people they had already let go of, but still think of now and then. We got onto "how to make peace with the feeling that life is meaningless." Someone was silent. Someone said they still have never made peace with it. Someone else said, laughing, then first find something to love. Later the topic turned into all kinds of gossip. We laughed until the tears were about to come out. Quite marvelous. Things I'd never tell people I know came out, softly, to someone I'd only just met. Perhaps because we have no past with each other, we don't have to carry any expectations either. No need to play a part. No need to prove anything. We just happened to be sitting at the same table, and seriously exchanged a few hours of life. When it ended, I suddenly felt that people meeting each other doesn't seem to be for the sake of leaving something behind. Sometimes, just briefly lighting each other up is already very lovely.

原本只是想工作日下班去喝一杯。 没想到聊到了凌晨。 八点半落座。 点了一杯鸡尾酒。 看见同桌的标签,开始期待今晚。 「沉着冷静的问题解决者」 「犀利吐槽流研究生」 「爱尝试新事物的社恐e人」 「推进话题的实干派」 「一个J人」 还有我—— 「有节奏感的深聊派」。 六个陌生人。 六种完全不同的人生。 像误闯进彼此生命的一小段。 有人聊工作。 有人聊爱情。 有人聊那些已经放下, 却偶尔还会想起的人。 聊到「怎么和生活的无意义感和解」。 有人沉默。 有人说, 一直都没和解。 也有人笑着说, 那就先找点事情热爱。 后来话题又拐进了各种八卦。 笑到眼泪都快出来。 很奇妙。 很多平时不会告诉熟人的话, 反而会轻轻地, 说给一个刚认识的人听。 或许是因为彼此没有过去, 所以也不用背负任何期待。 不用扮演。 不用证明。 只是刚好坐在同一张桌子, 认真地交换了几个小时的人生。 结束的时候, 突然觉得, 人与人的相遇, 好像并不是为了留下些什么。 有时候, 只是短暂地照亮彼此一下, 就已经很美妙了。

Tonight's drinking companions were unboxed! | Shenzhen mystery-box drinks night

Translated from Chinese

Shenzhen finally has mystery-box drinks nights too!!! Formed a drinks table with 5 strangers whose personalities match each other. Every frd who showed up brought a very novel experience. The drinks night had no preset framework or purpose for the chat, but under the lead of the topic cards and an easy atmosphere, everyone's talk was actually more on the same wavelength, and we hit it off more. "People on the same wavelength are few. "But tonight I met 5." The toast and the high-five when the drinks night ended were the truest wish to celebrate, from the bottom of our hearts, this strange turn of fate. We raise our glasses!

深圳终于也有盲盒酒局了!!! 与 5 位性格互相 match 的陌生人组成一个酒局, 每一位 frd 的出现都带来十分新奇的体验 酒局没有预设的聊天框架和目的, 但在话题卡片和轻松氛围的引导下, 大家的交谈反而更加同频而投机。 “ 同频的人很少, “ 但今晚我遇到了 5 位。” 酒局结束时的干杯与击掌, 是我们心底对这奇妙缘分最真实的庆意。 我们干杯!🥂

Don't anyone pass up this Hangzhou all-women blind-box drinking gathering. The talk was lovely......

Translated from Chinese

I did not expect to be healed by five girls who were strangers. First time at a blind-box drinking gathering. I had been worried it might go cold, and worried that with little in common it would be hard to get talking. Luckily we followed the card process and talked from the start all the way to the end. In the middle there were also very interesting little interactions that brought us closer. Very lucky to meet people on the same frequency. What left a deep impression was everyone talking about the subject of close relationships. Most of them brought up friendship. I heard many stories that were interesting and moving, and my heart felt warm.

没想到被五个陌生人的女孩治愈了! 盲盒酒局初体验! 本来担心会不会冷场 担心没有什么共同话题很难聊起来 还好跟着卡牌的流程走 从头聊到尾! 中间还有很有趣的小互动拉近彼此距离 很幸运的遇到了同频的人🥂 印象很深的是大家聊到亲密关系的话题,大部分都提到友情,听到很多有趣又感动的故事,心里暖暖的~

In Hangzhou, a way to meet some new friends

Translated from Chinese

After lying around in Hangzhou for a weekend I still decided to go out and socialize a bit, but I do not really like that overly loud and noisy bar atmosphere, so I tried a blind-box drinking gathering. This time it was an all-women table. I met five girls of different backgrounds and different ages. Because there were all kinds of topics guiding the sharing, it did not get awkward or go cold. It was still pretty interesting. The drinks at Xingyuan were pretty good too. (ps. The Maison Margiela coffee is very easy to photograph, and it suits a white dress very well.)

在杭州躺了一个周末后还是决定出去social一下,但又不太喜欢那种过于喧闹嘈杂的酒吧氛围,所以尝试了一下盲盒酒局。这次是全女局,认识了五个不同背景不同年龄的女孩,因为有各种话题引导分享所以也不会尴尬冷场,还是蛮有意思滴,杏园的酒也挺好喝的🍹(ps.马吉拉咖啡很好拍捏,很适配白裙子🥹🫶)

Work on pause | making friends as it comes, and unexpectedly meeting a group of Hangzhou friends on the same frequency

Translated from Chinese

Daily life is two points and one line. I wanted to look for some change. I signed up with a try-it mindset, and the other 5 girls I was matched with were all super nice!! There was none of the awkward going-cold I had imagined. We went from complaining about work to relationship gossip, from life plans to bizarre experiences. The more we talked the more into it we got, and the more we talked the more we clicked. There were I people and E people, and the ages were different too, but the strange thing was that everyone was so sincere and so gentle. There was none of that politeness and distance of social occasions. We talked until almost midnight before we broke up. Girls really are the most beautiful creatures in the world! Feelings get gently caught, and confusion also has someone answering it seriously. It turns out you can also get along this comfortably with strangers. Who understands this feeling of being caught by people on the same frequency! I really spent a very beautiful and very happy night. Thanks to the self who bravely took the step. Girls really are the most beautiful creatures in the world! (repeating loudly)

日常生活两点一线,想寻求一些改变。 本来抱着试试的心态报了名,结果匹配到的另外5个女生都超级nice!! 完全没有想象中的尴尬冷场,从工作吐槽聊到感情八卦,从人生规划聊到奇葩经历,越聊越嗨,越聊越投缘🥹 有i人有e人,年龄也不一样,但神奇的是每个人都好真诚好温柔,完全没有那种社交场合的客套和距离感,一直聊到快0点才散场。 女孩子真的是世界上最美好的生物! 情绪会被温柔接住,困惑也会有人认真解答。 原来和陌生人也能有这么舒服的相处,这种被同频接住的感觉谁懂! 真的度过了一个非常美好非常愉快的夜晚,感谢勇敢迈出的自己~ 女孩子真的是世界上最美好的生物!(大声重复)

Hangzhou night talk: when 5 strangers sit down and share about life

Translated from Chinese

Recently in Hangzhou I tried a blind-box social drinking gathering. It brought this "I person" a comfortable experience of experiencing other people's lives. Of the number originally set for the scene, one friend could not attend. In the end five companions showed up: two INTJs, two INFPs, and one ENTP (I guess the one who was absent was also an ENTP). I have to marvel at how precise the big-data matching was. The whole evening everyone could listen well to each other, and sincerely share experience in life, work, love, and life goals. Unlike the next table, whose lively atmosphere strongly felt like a déjà vu of extroverted personalities (E people), the interaction at our table was a bit more reserved. Everyone getting together actually looked especially harmonious. In the story-sharing part, the one who left the deepest impression was Lala. She moved for work and, with one foot on the gas, drove herself from Qingdao to Hangzhou, strictly following a rhythm of resting at a service area every 1.5 hours along the way. When a friend offered to drive with her, Lala replied in a carefree way: "No. The car is full of luggage. It cannot fit you." There was also Toby's "transporting the dog" adventure. At the time Toby kept an Eskimo dog. When he came back to China from the United States, because the domestic US flight leg did not allow pets on board, he specially drove six hours and took the dog from home to the airport where the international leg started, trying to let the dog fly straight to Shanghai from there. The plan was refused, so the six-hour drive was basically for nothing. But he had a sudden idea, and in the end he successfully persuaded a flight attendant on the same flight who also kept a dog. Not only did the dog board smoothly, but after landing in Shanghai they also "flexibly" arranged for it to get through customs. Besides that, there was Ruby's adventure of being invited to take part in the filming of a Korean variety show while traveling in Iceland, and Lüdong's run of exploding luck, running into a meteor shower while climbing a mountain. Everyone's life experiences were full of interest. Even more interesting, everyone present is currently single. The views of love everyone holds are also quite varied. Some people believe in fate, and think love is beautiful only when two people achieve "1+1=2". Others feel that even if two people are all right, on a journey of one person you still have to be able to take good care of yourself. The interesting part is that the people willing to get back together with an ex actually made up two fifths. On the setup of the process, the "answer cards" the organizer designed really took some thought. From the actual effect, the answering and interaction across the various dimensions really did, in a short time, take five strangers from complete strangers toward a first understanding.

最近在杭州尝试了一场盲盒社交酒局,给本“I人”带来了一次体验他人生活的舒适体验。 现场原定人数中有位朋友未能出席,最终到场的是五位搭子:两位 INTJ、两位 INFP 和一位 ENTP(推测缺席的那位也是 ENTP)。不得不感叹大数据的精准匹配,整个晚上大家都能很好地倾听彼此,真诚地分享在生活、工作、爱情以及人生目标等方面的经验。与隔壁桌那种外向型人格(E人)既视感强烈的热闹氛围不同,我们这一桌的互动略显内敛,大家凑在一起反而显得格外和谐。 在故事分享环节,印象最深的是辣辣。为了工作搬家,她一脚油门从青岛自驾到杭州,途中严格遵循每隔 1.5 小时在服务区休息的节奏。当朋友提出想陪她一起自驾时,辣辣潇洒地回复道:“不行啦,车里装满了行李,装不下你。” 还有 Toby 的“运狗子”奇遇。当时 Toby 养了一只爱斯基摩犬,从美国回国时,由于美国国内段航班不允许宠物登机,他特意开车六个小时,将狗狗从家里运到了国际段的始发机场,试图让狗狗从那里直飞上海。结果计划被拒,六个小时的车程算是白跑了。但他灵机一动,最终成功说服了同航班一位同样养狗的空乘人员,不仅让狗狗顺利登机,还在降落在上海后“灵活”地安排出了关。 此外,还有 Ruby 在冰岛旅游时被邀请参与韩综拍摄的奇遇,以及律动运气爆棚、爬山时偶遇流星雨的经历。大家的生活经历都妙趣横生。更有意思的是,在场所有人目前都是单身状态。大家秉持的爱情观也颇为多元:有人相信缘分,认为只有当两个人实现“1+1=2”时爱情才美好;也有人觉得,即便两个人不错,但在一个人的旅途中,也要有能力把自己照顾得很好。有趣的是,有意愿和前任复合的人竟然占了五分之二。 在流程设置上,主办方设计的“答题卡”确实花了一番心思。从实际效果来看,各个维度的答题与互动,确实在短时间内让五位陌生人从完全陌生走向了初步的了解。

Saying goodbye to dating apps, I met five friends on the same wavelength

Translated from Chinese

I originally thought a blind-box drinking night was just an ordinary social event. I didn't expect that what opened were life stories, one after another. There was a girl who had been hurt in love, yet still believes in love and is full of expectation for life; a guy who left a top finance company and turned to exploring international education, which he truly loves; a writer who has been to many places and, among the lights of countless homes, felt the world was gentle enough to bring tears; an operations girl who keeps challenging herself and trying all kinds of possibilities; and an explorer who left a big tech company, took a gap year, and is looking for 100 kinds of life experiences. The biggest gain of that night was discovering that every seemingly ordinary person is hiding an extraordinary story. A blind-box drinking night is not just 8+1. It is a meeting where you exchange fragments of a life with strangers.

本来以为盲盒酒局只是一次普通社交,没想到打开的是一个个人生故事。 有被感情伤害过,却依然相信爱、对生活充满期待的女孩;有从金融top公司离开,转身探索自己真正热爱的国际教育的小哥;有走过很多地方,在万家灯火里感受到世界温柔到落泪的作家;有不断挑战自己、尝试各种可能的运营小姐姐;也有从大厂离开,gap一年寻找100种人生体验的探索者。 那一晚最大的收获,是发现每个看似普通的人,都藏着一段不普通的故事。盲盒酒局,不只是8+1。是一次和陌生人交换人生片段的相遇。

A 30+ I person braves a blind-box drinking night! A wonderful night

Translated from Chinese

My best friend said it was a lot of fun, so last weekend I went to a 6-person session. Before I went I was still quite nervous, and a little expectant at the same time (I people really are not good at chatting...). After I got there, the bar's atmosphere was fairly relaxed: dim yellow light, a lazy BGM, and everyone a little tipsy, haha! The people at the table were also very nice, so I slowly loosened up. There were topic prompts the whole time. We talked from work and interests in daily life to feelings, and from views on life to imaginings of the future. I could feel how fine-grained each person is inside, and I saw broader, different lives. Pretty good~

闺蜜说很好玩,于是上周末参加了一个6人场的[回招呼] 去之前还是蛮紧张的🙂‍↔️,同时有点期待(I人真的不擅长聊天… 到了现场后,bar的氛围比较放松🌃,昏黄的灯光、慵懒的bgm和🍧🍸微醺的大家哈哈! 加上同场的小伙伴也很奈斯,所以也就慢慢松弛下来🥹 全场都有话题引导,大家从工作、生活兴趣聊到情感,从对人生的看法聊到对未来的畅想,能感受到每个人内心的细腻,看到更广阔、不一样的人生🎨 挺好~

ENTJ: the highest form of socializing is having no purpose, yet being on the same wavelength

Translated from Chinese

I originally went only with a novelty-seeking mindset, to test the waters of a blind-box drinking night. I actually don't believe an algorithm can read a person's frequency, yet I was unexpectedly matched with 5 girls at different stages who were on the same wavelength. No utilitarian small talk, no empty courtesy. A box of carefully designed topic cards made for us let us completely take off the social masks adults wear, and formally begin a stretch of time that belonged to "them." Guess what 6 girls who had just met would talk about? Not gossip, and not celebrities. She said, about The Seventh Day, "Death is a festival that is bound to arrive," and so she decided to be braver. And she said, "Desire is the prophet of the soul," and so she is not afraid of having ambition. She shared facing up to those emotions of letting go, cutting off, and parting that still exist. It was as if we opened windows for each other and saw the different possibilities of life at each stage. Really good. As an ENTJ who is always goal-oriented and used to going it alone, I have always believed in a way of relating that is efficient, utilitarian, and has a result. But this gathering made me suddenly understand: high-quality socializing is not only a binding of interests in which people borrow strength from each other. The strength of these girls is also in calmly sharing vulnerability and sincerely witnessing each other's growth. No keeping up with each other, no draining each other, no performing to fit in. Allow yourself to take it slowly, and still always dare to take one step forward. The gentleness and the strength between girls are pure and burning hot. Each shines on her own, and they light each other.

原本只是抱着猎奇心态,试水盲盒酒局。 其实我并不相信,算法能读懂人的频率, 却意外被匹配到5个不同阶段的同频女孩🥂 没有功利寒暄、无效客套, 一盒精心设计的专属话题卡牌, 让我们彻底卸下成年人的社交伪装, 正式开始一段属于“她们”的时间。 你猜6个刚认识的女孩,会聊什么? 不是八卦,也不是明星。 她说《第七日》“死亡是一个必然来临的节日”,因此她决定更勇敢; 而她说“欲望是灵魂的先知”因此她不害怕拥有野心; 她分享正视那些舍断离但仍然存在的情绪; 我们好像互相打开了窗户, 看到每个阶段人生不同的可能性💕真好 作为永远目标导向、习惯独闯的ENTJ,一直信奉高效、功利、有结果的相处模式。 但这场局让我顿悟:高质量社交,不只是互相借力的利益捆绑。 女孩们的强大,也在于坦然分享脆弱,真诚见证彼此成长。 不攀比、不消耗、不迎合,允许自己慢慢来,也永远敢向前一步。女孩之间的温柔与力量,纯粹又滚烫。各自闪耀,又相互照亮💫

A Chengdu ukulele girl meets music people on the same wavelength

Translated from Chinese

During summer break a friend and I signed up for a mystery-box drinking night. Once it officially started, we took turns setting persona cards. I set the card "a push-things-forward type who can play the ukulele." Following the card's prompt, I introduced a small hobby of mine and mentioned, in passing, that when I have nothing to do I hold a ukulele and let out everyday anxiety. The girl sitting across from me suddenly lit up. She picked up the thread and said she had also learned ukulele in school, then set it aside because school got busy, and she had always missed the days of holding the instrument and relaxing. That one line of recognition led us on. We slowly opened up along instruments, everyday ways of letting off stress, and hobbies in fragments, from stiff politeness to opening up and complaining about the small exhaustion in life. A group of strangers who originally had nothing in common slowly pieced together their own small, gentle stories. Running into a stranger on the same wavelength, and trading a small story that is ordinary and soothing. You don't have to force yourself to fit in. Just be yourself easily, and you can get back a sense of ease you haven't felt in a long time.

和朋友趁着放暑假报了盲盒酒局,正式开局后轮流设置人设卡,我设置了「会弹尤克里里的推进派」这张卡片,顺着卡牌的引导开口介绍自己的小爱好,随口说起平时没事就抱着尤克里里排解日常焦虑的小事。 坐在对面的女生突然眼睛一亮,接过话茬说她上学也学过尤克里里,后来因为学业忙碌搁置了,一直很怀念抱着琴放松的日子。 就这一句话的共鸣,我们顺着乐器、日常解压、碎片化爱好慢慢聊开,从拘谨客气到敞开心扉吐槽生活里的小疲惫,一群原本毫无交集的陌生人,慢慢拼凑出各自细碎又温柔的小故事。 偶遇同频的陌生人,交换一段平凡又治愈的小故事。不用刻意合群,只用轻松做自己,就能收获久违的松弛感。

What kind of drinking-night talk teaches you a Europe trip tutorial?

Translated from Chinese

A mystery-box drinking night that was very much not what I expected! I originally thought everyone would be workhorses still on the clock. I didn't expect to meet several friends with especially rich gap experiences. One girl had been to quite a few European countries, and she shared, without holding back, small tips for starting a gap year at zero cost. You could say I drank the most worthwhile glass of my life (tuition included, haha). Really looking forward to the next drinking night! P.S.: p4 and p5 are pictures we found while we were talking.

非常意料之外的一次盲盒酒局!原来以为大家都是牛马上班ing 没想到会遇到好几个gap经历特别丰富的朋友 有一个小姐姐去过好多个欧洲国家 而且毫不吝啬地和我们分享了0成本开启gap year的小技巧 可以说是喝到了人生中最值的一杯酒(包括学费哈哈哈) 非常期待下次的酒局!ps:p4、p5是我们聊天时候找的图片

In Chengdu I talked with 5 strangers until midnight

Translated from Chinese

Since the new project started, I've been up early and home late, busy to the point of exploding. I urgently, urgently, urgently needed a gap to catch my breath. I came across this mystery-box drinking night in Chengdu: six strangers, an unknown night of conversation. Pretty interesting. I signed up right away and specifically chose "I don't want a pair at the table." I wanted to see what five strangers could talk their way into. Having an unknown thing to look forward to in life felt good. I went back and forth about whether to drive. Then I thought: if I don't drink, doesn't that waste this rare chance to empty my head? I decided to go home, leave the car, change into a cool summer outfit, and take a taxi out. Not driving myself, the air-conditioning on, watching the street outside the window slide backward — I had already started to relax in that moment. That felt good. The bar is called "Emergency Entrance." Before I even went in I saw a bored little dog lying on a seat. Pet the dog first, as a greeting. That felt good. At the bar I had trouble choosing a drink. The girl poured two craft beers for me to try. The first was good. The second, lychee, hit today's taste buds surprisingly well. That one. No expectations, and then a surprise. That felt good. I arrived right on time and turned out to be the second person there. I sat next to the woman who had arrived first and chatted for a few minutes. The other tablemates showed up one after another. Three men and three women. A simple hello, we drew identity cards, and topics started. Some were I and some were E, but everyone was open. We didn't know each other anyway, so no one had to put on an act or worry about saying the wrong thing. That felt good. I had planned to leave at 10:30, but we talked until 12. From MBTI to favorite foods, from "why this city" to things we've been thinking about lately, from abstract philosophy to favorite movies. No need to deliberately invent topics, no need to choose words carefully. Say whatever you want to say. When you're thirsty, take a sip. I hadn't spoken this freely, with nothing weighing on me, in a long time. That felt good. One glass of a sweet little drink, a few new friends, a night of talking however we wanted. A rare easy night inside busy work. That felt good.

新项目开启以来,起早贪黑,忙到爆炸。急需急需急需一个空档喘口气。 刷到成都这个盲盒酒局:6个陌生人,一个未知的聊天夜晚,蛮有意思。立马报名,专门选了"不希望同桌有双人组",我就要看看五个陌生人能聊成什么样。 生活里有了未知的期待,真好。 纠结要不要开车。转念一想,不喝酒不就白瞎这个难得的放空机会了吗?果断回家换车,换上一身凉爽夏装,打车出门。不用自己开车,吹着空调看窗外街景后退,那一刻就已经开始放松了~真好。 活动酒吧叫"紧急入口",还没进门就看见一只百无聊赖的小狗趴在座位上。🐶先撸为敬,真好。 吧台选酒犯了选择困难,小姐姐直接打了两杯精酿让我试。第一杯不错,第二杯荔枝味出奇地正中今天的味蕾。就它了。不带期待反而有惊喜,真好。 踩点到,居然是第二个。坐到先来的美女旁边聊了几分钟,其他桌友陆续到场。三男三女,简单打招呼,抽身份牌,开始话题。大家有i有e,但都大大方方的。反正不认识,不用凹人设,也不怕说错话,真好。 原计划10点半走,结果聊到了12点🕛 从MBTI到喜欢的食物,从"为什么在这个城市"到最近在思考的事,从形而上的哲学到最喜欢的电影。不用刻意想话题,不用小心措辞,想说什么说什么,渴了就喝一口酒。好久没有这样毫无负担地说话了,真好。 一杯小甜酒,几个新朋友,一个随意畅谈的夜晚,这样一个繁忙工作里难得的闲适夜晚,真好:)🍸

Getting away from social drain, and meeting souls on the same wavelength at T46 in Chengdu

Translated from Chinese

Work is nine to five, and my circle of life keeps getting narrower. Every time I'm forced into a lively gathering, all I want is to slip away. It wasn't until I found this kind of mystery-box drinking night that I found a way of being together that feels comfortable. I was randomly placed in a quiet bar full of atmosphere and ran into five friends I didn't know. Everyone came from different paths in life. The personalities were different, but everyone was gentle and sincere. No need to hunt for topics on purpose, no need to force yourself to go along. Sometimes a real deep talk, sometimes light teasing. The mood was relaxed and soothing. It turns out that in the same city there are this many interesting, warm people. Some people you meet briefly, and they become a nice interlude. Some people click at once and become close friends you can tell anything. This kind of unplanned fate is especially precious. Set the tiredness down, drop the restraint, and come only for a meeting of minds. I've already started looking forward to the next meeting.

工作朝九晚五,生活圈子越来越窄,每次被迫融入热闹局,都只想悄悄逃离。直到发现这种盲盒酒局,才算找到舒服的相处方式✨ 被随机安排在氛围感满满的清吧,和五位陌生的朋友不期而遇。大家来自不同生活轨迹,性格各异,却都温柔又真诚。不用刻意找话题,不必勉强迎合,或是走心深聊,或是轻松打趣,氛围松弛又治愈。 原来在同一座城市,藏着这么多有趣又温暖的人。有的人短暂相逢,成为一段美好插曲;有的人一拍即合,变成无话不谈的挚友。 这种不期而遇的缘分格外珍贵,卸下疲惫,抛开拘束,只为精神共鸣而来。已经开始期待下一次相遇啦~

Don't worry. Every step counts | A Chengdu mystery-box dinner

Translated from Chinese

Before I went to this mystery-box dinner, I was actually a little curious. A group of complete strangers sitting together — what would they talk about? That night, the people at the table came from different cities and were at different stages of life. Some were in their twenties, just starting to explore the future. Some were in their thirties, going through new choices in life. Some were in their forties, with a more stable and unhurried life. Some had come to Chengdu for work. Some had just changed cities and started over. Some had always lived here and knew everything about this city. What stayed with me most was a friend in their thirties sharing a worry. He said that lately he sometimes feels lonely too, and hopes someone will eat with him, talk, and share life. But in the adult world, everyone has their own busyness, and you can't always find a person who happens to be free. In that moment I suddenly realized: people in their thirties can be like those of us in our twenties. They get lost, they hope for company, they want to look for small happiness in life. What is different is that at thirty, you may already have the courage to face problems and the methods to solve them. We talked about TV shows we'd watched recently and hobbies we like, and we recommended a few local restaurants we like to a friend who was in Chengdu on a business trip for the first time. This was the first time I sat and talked, as a "stranger-friend," with people older than me. There was no distance that age brings, and no so-called standard answer for life. Being twenty has the exploring of being twenty. Being thirty has the ease of being thirty. Being forty has the richness of being forty. Later I found that there doesn't seem to be any stage of life you need to be afraid of. Every road you've walked, every person you've met, is quietly shaping who you are now. So don't worry. Going slower is fine too. Every step counts.

参加这场盲盒饭局之前,我其实有一点好奇。 一群完全陌生的人坐在一起,会聊些什么呢? 那天晚上,桌上的人来自不同的城市,也处在人生不同的阶段。 有20多岁,刚刚开始探索未来; 有30多岁,正在经历人生新的选择; 也有40多岁,拥有更加稳定和从容的生活。 有人因为工作来到成都,有人刚换了一座城市重新开始,也有人一直生活在这里,熟悉这座城市的一切。 让我印象最深的是一位30+的朋友分享自己的烦恼。 他说,最近有时候也会觉得孤单,希望有人陪自己吃饭、聊天、分享生活。但成年人的世界里,每个人都有自己的忙碌,并不是随时都能找到一个刚好有空的人。 那一刻我突然发现: 原来30多岁的人,也会和20多岁的我们一样,会迷茫,会期待陪伴,会想寻找生活里的小确幸。 但不同的是,30岁的你,或许已经拥有了面对问题的勇气和解决问题的方法。 我们聊了最近看的电视剧、喜欢的兴趣爱好,也向第一次来成都出差的朋友推荐了几家自己喜欢的本地餐厅。 这是我第一次和比自己年长的人,以“陌生朋友”的身份坐在一起聊天。 没有年龄带来的距离感,也没有所谓的人生标准答案。 20岁有20岁的探索, 30岁有30岁的从容, 40岁也有40岁的精彩。 后来发现,人生好像没有哪个阶段需要害怕。 每一步走过的路,每一次遇见的人,都在悄悄塑造现在的自己。 所以别担心。 慢一点也没关系。 每一步,都算数。

Chengdu · Trying a city mystery-box social drinking night

Translated from Chinese

First time trying a mystery-box drinking night in Chengdu! Drinking and chatting with the other five strangers at the table. After you pick a time and fill out the questionnaire, you get matched with tablemates based on what you wrote. The day before the event you're told the mystery meeting place. I didn't expect it to end up an all-women table, hahaha. The box prepared in advance has interactive questions and little games. Everyone spoke freely and the atmosphere was really good… As an E, I really want to open up my social circle, hear different ideas and different life experiences. Getting to have this kind of experience is such a happiness (wiping-tears.jpg).

🥂第一次体验成都的盲盒酒局! 和同桌其他五位陌生人一起喝酒聊天~ 选好时间、调好问卷之后, 会根据填写内容匹配同桌人, 活动前一天通知神秘碰头地点。 没想到最后组成了全女局哈哈哈哈, 提前备好的盒子里会有互动问题和小游戏, 大家一起畅所欲言氛围好好哦……🥺❤️ 本e人真的很想打开自己的社交圈, 听听不同的想法、不同的人生经历, 能有这种体验好幸福(抹泪.jpg)!!

A strangers' drinking night | It felt like meeting another 5 "selves"

Translated from Chinese

It was my first time at a blind-box drinking night. I chose Wednesday, a weekday, but the incredible part was that the 6 people at the table talked, and it felt like meeting other "selves." On a weekday someone is bound to be late, but each of them would tell the people who had already arrived, ahead of time. It felt very safe. The people who came later and the ones who arrived early broke the ice quickly under the cards the host had prepared. The matching mechanism really has something to it! In a sea of people, everyone's life and experience are so different. One topic that stayed with me: interesting places people have gone, or experiences they have had. It is a common topic, and I had not imagined that everyone would share so readily and listen so seriously while others told their own stories. This feeling, of being respected and taken seriously even the first time you meet strangers, is really good. Interesting experiences among them: one person, because his business failed and a big change happened in his heart, went to Seda to study Buddhism together with a master, and at the same time worked in sky burial. One year of that experience gave him a new understanding of life. A girl I had thought was a very cool motorcycle beauty turned out to also be a guzheng teacher. Another person who looked very J told easy, funny jokes the whole time, haha. I also really like the slogan: let same-wavelength chance meetings happen naturally. The event had no utilitarian flirting, only serious listening and treating each other honestly. From other people, I could almost see another side of myself. There is also a meal format. I will come again next time! Looking forward to sparks flying, hahaha.

第一参加了一场盲盒酒局,选择了工作日的周三,但不可思议的是,一桌6人聊下了却感觉遇到了另外的“自己” 工作日难免有迟到,但都会提前告知已来的人、安全感满满,后来的人和提前到伙伴在主办方的卡牌引导下很快就破冰了。 ✨匹配机制真的有点东西[偷笑R]!人海中大家的人生和经历都好不一样呀,其中印象深刻的话题:大家去干什么有趣的地方或是经历。这种大众的话题,没想象到大家都很分享和认真去听他人讲自己的故事,这种陌生人第一次见面也会被尊重、被认真对待的感觉,真好呀~ 其中有趣的经历: 👦一个伙伴因为生意失败心里发生了很大变化,就去色达和大师一起学习佛教,同时从事天葬,1年的经历对人生有了新的感悟; 👧本以为很酷的机车美少女却有古筝老师的一面; 另外一个看起来很J的伙伴却全场说着轻松搞笑的笑话哈哈哈 ❤️slogan也非常喜欢:让同频奇遇自然发生~ 活动没有功利搭讪,只有认真聆听和坦诚相待🥂🥂还能从其他人身上仿佛看到自己的另外一面 还有饭局形式,下次还来!期待碰撞火花哈哈哈哈

At an all-women table | cups raised, talking freely

Translated from Chinese

An all-women blind-box drinking night. Here I met a graduate student living in Chengdu for a while, Lili, who is about to go far away to Australia, a makeup artist at a coser photo studio, a metaphysics master who reads tarot, and an entrepreneur who rides a motorcycle. We are occasionally similar, but not completely the same. On this scorching summer night we shared each other's lives, caught a glimpse of each other's freedom, and felt other people's troubles. This format is really interesting. For an I person, it is like a small adventure.

一场盲盒全女酒局,在这里遇到了 来成都旅居的研究生 即将远赴澳洲的里里 coser写真工作室美妆师 算塔罗的玄学大师 骑摩托车的创业者 我们偶尔相似却不完全相同 在这个炽热的夏夜共享彼此的人生,窥见各自的自由,感受他人的烦恼 这个形式好有趣,对i人来说就像一场小型冒险活动

Changsha mystery-box drinking night | A new, relaxed way to socialize

Translated from Chinese

I had heard from a friend who went to a T46 mystery-box drinking night in Beijing that this kind of mystery-box socializing is strange and interesting. I happened to find that Changsha has it too. I was between jobs, so I signed up for one right away. After you sign up, the organizers match six strangers along three dimensions: age, personality, and topics. One day ahead, the venue and your tablemates' tags are unlocked. Occasionally they also run a Zongheng Sihai podcast special. If you're interested, you can sign up for that too. Women-friendly: you can choose a mixed table or an all-women table! Non-drinker-friendly: you can choose a non-alcoholic drink! You can also sign up for a mystery-box dinner! The dinner cost is split. Social-anxiety-friendly: topic cards guide the chat, so you don't have to worry about the conversation dying! No awkwardness: after it ends, a mutual opt-in unlocks contact details. One night I talked about everything with new friends from all kinds of work: work, interests, relationships. We didn't leave until after 12. It was basically an immersive variety-show experience, haha. So much fun! I'll do it again next time!

之前听朋友说参加了北京的T46盲盒酒局,觉得这种盲盒社交很奇妙很有意思,偶然发现长沙也有,正处于职业空窗期的我立马报名了一场。 报名之后,主办方会根据年龄/性格/话题三个维度匹配6个陌生人,提前一天解锁酒局地点和同桌伙伴的标签。偶尔还会开办纵横四海播客专场,有感兴趣的也可选择报名~ ⭐️女生友好:可以选择男女局或全女局! ⭐️不喝酒友好:可以选择无酒精饮料!也可以报名盲盒饭局!(饭局费用需AA) ⭐️社恐友好:配套话题卡牌引导聊天,完全不怕冷场! ⭐️拒绝尴尬:结束之后双向互选可解锁联系方式~ 一晚上和各行各业的新朋友们谈天说地,聊职场、聊兴趣、聊情感,一直到12点多才散场,简直是一次沉浸式综艺体验hhhh太好玩啦!下次还要玩!

Wait, is this how Changsha hangs out now? Full of suspense…

Translated from Chinese

On the weekend I went to a very particular offline experience. It kind of refreshed how I think about social meetups. Table for Six. You sign up online. Data matches you with drinking buddies. The venue is only unlocked 24 hours ahead. The moment I saw the location unlock, a small, nameless thrill of the unknown hit me. What is going on? I went straight there after work. A small table of five was just the right number. The organizers thoughtfully prepared interactive question cards, so you no longer have to worry about strangers meeting and having nothing to say. Friendly to I people. No obligatory politeness, and no forcing yourself to liven the mood. On the contrary, in front of strangers everyone seemed more able to be themselves for real. Stepping out of an ordinary day for a while and chatting with a group of interesting strangers, this low-pressure offline socializing really can get addictive!

周末赴了一场很特别的线下体验,算是刷新我对社交局的认知了。 Table for six,线上报名,数据匹配你的喝9搭子,提前24小时才解锁场地,看到地点解锁的那一刻,一种未知又莫名的小刺激感朝我袭来是怎么肥事? 下班直奔现场,5个人的小局人数刚刚好,主办方贴心准备了互动提问卡,再也不用担心陌生人见面无话可聊。 I人友好,没有应酬式的客套,也不用勉强活跃气氛,相反的,大家在陌生人面前好像更能真实的做自我。 暂时抽离平淡日常,和一群有趣的陌生人闲谈,这种低压力的线下社交,真的会上瘾呀!

What can a Changsha workhorse do after getting off work?

Translated from Chinese

After starting work, besides colleagues it feels hard to make new friends. I happened to see the mystery-box drinking night. Tablemates are assigned based on your answers. It seemed pretty interesting, so I went just to try it. I was still a bit nervous, but I didn't expect us to start talking as soon as I sat down. It was very comfortable and natural. The whole atmosphere was good too. Everyone came from different industries and different ages, sharing their own stories and views. Later everyone got really into the conversation. It was very interesting!! The start of the event also had a sense of ceremony: opening the box and receiving each person's own identity card, with your own name and keywords on it, plus lots of game cards that guide you step by step, so you don't have to worry about awkwardness at all. If any friends feel stuck socially, I really recommend coming to a mystery-box drinking night. You might have a different experience.

工作后除了同事感觉很难交到新朋友了,刚好看到盲盒酒局,根据答题分配同桌伙伴,感觉挺有意思的,抱着试一试的心态参加了[自拍R] 本来还有点紧张,没想到刚入座就开聊了,非常舒服自然,整个氛围也很好,大家来自不同的行业,各个年龄阶段,分享各自的故事和观点,到后面大家都聊嗨了非常有意思!! 活动开始也很有仪式感、开箱领取每个人自己的身份卡牌,上面有属于自己的名字和关键词,还有很多游戏卡牌引导一步步进行下去,所以完全不用担心尴尬 如果有朋友感觉陷入了社交困境,非常推荐来参加盲盒酒局可能会有不一样的体验~

A Changsha finance grunt's secret base after work

Translated from Chinese

By day the suit and leather shoes are welded onto me. I bang the keyboard until it nearly takes off. The pressure is huge. After work I took off my badge and came across a T46 mystery-box drinking night. The place and the companions are randomly matched. This time the box opened at Furong Square, super close to me! I braced myself and went for the first time. Random shared table. Before you're grouped you fill out a questionnaire. The tablemates you get will have things in common. Drinking, shaking dice, playing cards. The alcohol was just tipsy enough. The table was just lively enough. It wasn't awkward the whole time. So this is another way to live after work. A new spot for office drones to keep themselves going. Unlocked.

白天西装皮鞋焊在身上,键盘敲到飞起,压力山大😵‍💫下班摘了工牌,刷到T46盲盒酒局,地点和搭子都是随机匹配的,这次开盲盒在芙蓉广场,离我超级近!👣 第一次壮着胆子冲了,随机拼桌,组队之前会填写问卷,分到的桌友会有共同话题,喝酒摇骰子玩卡牌,酒刚好微醺,局刚好热闹,全程不尴尬,原来下班后还能这样活✨社畜续命新据点,解锁了✔️

An INFP braves a Changsha mystery-box drinking night: meeting similar and interesting souls

Translated from Chinese

About the mystery-box drinking night: I first saw it on xhs and thought it was pretty interesting. A few strangers are matched to the same table based on MBTI, interests, background, and social preferences, and a deep talk unfolds from custom topic cards. As an INFP, I'm usually socially anxious, slow to warm up, and don't like socializing. This time I got up the courage and signed up feeling both playful and uneasy. It was my first time showing up offline. I unexpectedly opened a table of odd, free, and interesting souls: sq, who likes drinking, says little, but is sharp; jz, an experience-seeker who says they're timid but isn't afraid of living alone deep in the mountains; xj, a healing practitioner who gets called a rain-maker by friends because of daily singing-bowl practice; xmkp, a laid-back Purple Star Astrology expert who still sets the pace; and zw, a science-and-engineering guy who says little but stays curious about everything. Six I people with very different personalities sat around one table. We went from personal experience to niche hobbies to life questions, and in the end found it was actually a "metaphysics" table! We talked freely for nearly three hours and it didn't feel long. It was really interesting!!! Nothing sought, something gained. It turns out a mystery-box drinking night isn't an adventure. You don't have to explain your strangeness and your delicacy. Here, everyone is similar and on the same wavelength. Once again, I'm struck by how precise the T46 algorithm's matching is. Looking forward to the next meeting.

关于盲盒酒局,一开始是在xhs看到,觉得还挺有意思的:几个陌生人,基于mbti、兴趣、背景、社交偏好被匹配同一桌,根据专属定制话题卡展开deeptalk~ 作为infp,平时社恐慢热不喜社交,这次鼓起勇气,抱着好玩又忐忑的心情报名,第一次尝试线下赴约,意外开出一桌奇奇怪怪自由又有趣的灵魂: 喜欢喝酒话少但犀利的sq、说自己胆小但不惧独居深山的体验派jz、因日常颂钵被朋友说是求雨的疗愈师xj、佛系但带节奏的紫微斗数大拿xmkp、话少但对一切保持好奇的理工男zw~ 六个性格迥异的i人围坐一桌,从个人经历聊到小众爱好再到人生命题,最后发现竟是一个“玄学”局!畅聊近三个小时也不觉漫长,真的很有意思啊!!! 无所求,有所得。原来盲盒酒局不是冒险,不用解释自己的奇怪与细腻,在这里,所有人都相似又同频。 再次感叹t46算法的精准匹配,期待下次相遇~

Bent over the desk by day, drinking for pleasure by night

Translated from Chinese

This blogger's main job is actually that of a post-production laborer. Lately I sit in front of the computer every day, and the mouse is about to be swung until it smokes. A friend really could not stand watching anymore and signed me up for T46. A brief step off the Premiere track, trying to chat idly with strangers. As a typical I person, before I walked in I was ill at ease and full of dread. But I have to say this matching mechanism has something to it. The tablemates I was matched with all had, more or less, some unexpected points of being on the same wavelength. Slowly I stopped being stiff. The more we talked, the more at ease I became. Quietly listening to other people's experiences, and seeing different lives. I think only an occasional escape keeps a person from being buried by footage. I wish you and me always fully in it, always free.

本博主主业实为一名后期民工💻 近期每天守在电脑前,鼠标快要抡到冒烟了[哭惹R][哭惹R] 朋友实在看不下去,给我报名了T46 短暂的脱离PR轨道,试着和陌生人闲聊 作为一名典型的I人,进门之前局促不安诚惶诚恐 但这匹配机制不得不说有点东西 匹配到的同桌或多或少都有一些意外的同频之处 慢慢的不再拘谨,越聊越从容 静静的聆听他人的经历,看见不一样的人生 我想 偶尔的出逃,才不会被素材淹没 祝你我 永远尽兴🥂 永远自由[烟花R]

A university student interning in Changsha over the summer | a new all-women way of making friends

Translated from Chinese

That night we talked about a lot, from work and life to ideals and the future. Before I came, I had thought that with strangers there would not be many topics in common, that everyone would just drink a little and chat a little. I didn't expect every girl to be so cute and so lovely. Everyone was very willing to listen to each other, give each other suggestions, and share their own view of life and their values. By talking with people in different jobs and with different ideas, I also got more answers to the problems in front of me now. Even though everyone is a different person, we can always give each other something to think about. When we said goodbye, we said some blessings to the sister on our left. Every person was very sincere, and it made me feel happy. I want to experience it again next time!

那天晚上我们聊了很多,从工作、生活聊到理想与未来。 来之前,我本来以为和陌生人不会有很多共同话题的,大家只是喝喝酒聊聊天,但没想到每一个女孩子都很可爱很美好,大家都很愿意听彼此说话,给彼此提建议,分享自己的人生观与价值观。 通过和不同职业、不同理念的人聊天,我也有了更多对当下问题的答案。即便大家是不一样的人,但总能给彼此带来启发。 我们告别的时候,给自己左手边的姐妹说了一些祝福,每一个人都很真诚,让我觉得很幸福。 下次还想体验!

Push open the bar door and talk with 5 strangers

Translated from Chinese

On a weekday I went to a Table for Six blind-box drinking night. The place was 流体酒吧. I ordered a drink as soon as I walked in. There were alcoholic and non-alcoholic choices. After I ordered, I was led to the seat. I was half an hour late. When I arrived, the 5 people were already talking, but nobody looked cold. Instead they stopped and said, "You're here, come sit," and then introduced themselves again. There were men and women. Two of them were still in school, and they happened to also be students at the same famous 985 university in this city. The other three each had a stable job or a business of their own: a university teacher, a programmer at a big tech company, and a freelance blogger. Although the five came from different environments and places, they had already found their way into a conversation together. I am the kind of person who turns I as soon as I join a social event alone, and in that moment I stopped feeling nervous. The topic cards were very interesting. It was easy to talk deep. We drew a card that said, "Which kind of job do you think is more interesting?" Everyone's views were completely different — someone said the coolest people are those who can turn what they love into everyday life, someone said being interesting and making money are hard to have at the same time, and someone else said they themselves had chosen the latter and are now looking for a balance. There was no right or wrong, but everyone was thinking and speaking seriously. I had not met that kind of atmosphere in a long time. When the event ended there was also a round of commenting on each other. I received some comments that were quite unexpected. Seeing myself through other people's eyes really is more interesting than I imagined. The biggest feeling of the whole night was this: it turns out talking with strangers can also be this comfortable. No need to force a topic, no need to act like we are already close. A few cards, one drink, one evening. Just right. I hope that later I can meet more people in the blind box. 流体酒吧: the setting photographs well, and the drinks are good too. Recommended for going at night.

周中去了Table for Six盲盒酒局,地点在流体酒吧。 进门先点酒,有酒精和无酒精可选,点完被带到座位。 我迟到了半小时。 到的时候5个人已经聊上了,但完全没有冷脸,反而停下来说“来啦快坐”,然后重新自我介绍了一遍。有男有女,其中有两位还在上学并且恰好也是同一所本城市的著名985大学学生,其他的三位则是各自有稳定工作或自己的事业,有大学的老师、大厂的程序员和自由职业的博主。五个人虽然来自不同环境和地方,但是都已经聊到了一块去,感觉我这个独自参与社交活动就会变I的人,瞬间就不紧张了。 话题卡牌很有意思,很容易聊深。抽到一张“你觉得哪种职业比较有趣?”,大家观点完全不一样——有人说能把热爱变成日常的人最酷,有人说有趣和赚钱很难兼得,还有人说自己选过后者现在在找平衡。没有对错,但每个人都在认真思考和表达,那种氛围很久没遇到了。 活动结束还有一个互相评价的环节,收到了一些挺意外的评价,从别人眼里看自己,确实比想象中有意思。 整晚最大的感受是:原来和陌生人聊天也可以这么舒服。 不用硬找话题,不用装熟,几张卡牌、一杯酒、一个晚上,刚刚好。 希望以后能在盲盒遇见更多的小伙伴~ 📍流体酒吧,环境好拍,酒也不错,推荐晚上去。

A way for a PhD beast to relax | The Wuhan all-women drinks night was so easy to talk at

Translated from Chinese

In Wuhan, this week's happiness for a woman doing a PhD in education was given by an all-women mystery-box drinks night. I went straight from getting out of dance class to the mystery-box drinks night. Everyone at the table came from different industries, and there were also quite a few fellow enthusiasts who love sports, fitness, and climbing. Two people at the table were ENTPs, the same as me! The matching is still very accurate. From the icebreaker on, we went from everyday complaining to plans for life. Topics got picked up naturally. Four hours passed in a blink, and when it ended I still felt we hadn't talked enough. Socializing with no aim, and everyone could say what they really thought. Comfortable, and fully satisfying. Completely past what I expected. A very strange experience! I hope all of us can make real the blessing from the person on our left. I'll come again next time.

在武汉,教育学女博这周的快乐是全女盲盒酒局给的✨ 从舞室下课直接奔赴盲盒酒局,同桌的大家分别来自不同行业,还有好多爱运动、健身、攀岩的同好。同桌有两个和我一样的ENTP!匹配机制还是非常精准。 从破冰开始,从日常吐槽聊到人生规划,话题接得自然而然,四个小时一晃眼就过去了,结束的时候还觉得没聊够。 没有目的的社交,大家都能聊出真心话。舒服又尽兴,完全超出预期,很奇妙的体验! 希望我们都能实现来自左手边小伙伴的祝福。 下次再来~

The mystery-box drinks night that is everywhere in Shanghai has come to Wuhan!! The purple group loves it

Translated from Chinese

I have to say this matching has something to it. Who gets the happiness and satisfaction of a purple-person group chatting (INTJ x2, ENTP x4). A group that quickly understands what the other person is saying! And hearing them put things with logic and with rigorous thinking really feels so good!!! I chose the all-women table. There was a pretty girl who had just graduated and, like me, is in a gap period; there were also peers the same age who are doing a PhD; there was also an older girl who currently loves her work; and there were people who came together with friends. When we got to "life is an experience," everyone resonated extremely hard. All past experiences are what fill out the self of now. Talking with five people who are similar at the base but completely different otherwise, you can gain a different total of experience points. We just talked flat out for nearly 5 hours. At the start we used the card process to break the ice, and at the end we all decided to pick the interesting topics and say whatever we wanted. Identities and jobs are all different, but it was people on the same wavelength who met too late. It really is an interesting chance meeting, and I very much want to come again.

不得不说这个匹配机制是有点东西的 谁懂紫人组(intj*2 entp*4)聊天的快乐和满足 一群迅速理解对方在说什么!并且有逻辑和严谨思维的表达听着真的好爽!!! 我选的全女局,有刚毕业同样跟我一样gap期的漂亮妹宝,也有博士在读的同龄人,还有目前热爱工作的大姐姐、还有跟朋友结伴一起来的 谈到“生命就是一场体验”的时候大家都超级共鸣 / 过去的所有体验都是丰满现在的自己 跟五个底层相似,但是又完全不一样的人进行交流,就能获得不一样的经验值~ 直接怒聊近5个小时,一开始使用卡片流程破冰,最后一致决定挑有趣的话题畅所欲言 身份和职业都不一样但就是同频的相见恨晚 是真的很有意思很想再来一次的奇遇💪💪

Wuhan | Talked freely with five strangers for a whole night...

Translated from Chinese

First time trying to make friends in the form of mystery-box socializing. It opened the door to a new world! The all-women atmosphere was very good. Although everyone comes from different industries and has no overlap at all in real life, the matching groups people with similar personalities together, and makes one meeting point out of all of us who seem to be living on parallel lines. Talking carried no burden at all. At the start the event cards have a lot of icebreaker topics, and you quickly get into an atmosphere of free talk. Slowly, everyone talks more and more! I feel that I's joining this kind of event can also fit in completely. When we got to topics about feelings and a partner, everyone shared their own love life. Maybe because we were all strangers, nobody held back while sharing, and they shared whatever came to mind. Some shared that they had just ended an unhealthy ambiguous relationship and are currently lost about their own feelings. Some shared what it has been like after getting married. Others shared what they long for in a future partner. Once girls open the floodgates, the detail goes all the way up. Tiny emotions, little feelings other people wouldn't notice, all get said. The more we talked, the more absorbed we got. Time was simply ignored. We talked straight through to past one o'clock. At the end everyone was still reluctant to leave. I think this time felt perfect mainly because it was an all-women table. Every girl was good. There were no jokes at the wrong moment, and no smug lecturing. Everyone listened patiently, and gave each other affirmation and support. After talking, I felt my whole self relax.

第一次尝试以盲盒社交形式交友,打开了新世界的大门!全女的氛围很好,虽然大家都来自不同的行业,在现实生活中毫无交集,但是匹配机制会把性格相似的人组在一起,把所有看似生活的平行线上的我们形成的一个交点,聊起来完全没有负担~ 活动卡牌一开始会有很多破冰的话题,会很快进入一个畅聊的氛围,慢慢的每个人都会越聊越多!感觉i人参加这种活动也完全可以融入进来 在聊到有关感情和另一半相关的话题时,每个人都分享了自己的感情生活,可能是因为都是陌生人,在分享的时候都没有顾虑,想到什么都会分享[萌萌哒R]有的分享了自己刚结束一段不健康的暧昧关系对自己目前感情处于迷茫,有的分享了自己结婚后的体验,还有的分享了对未来另一半的向往 女孩子之间的话匣子一旦打开就会细节拉满,什么细碎情绪、别人注意不到的小感受都会讲出来,越聊越投入,时间直接被忽略,直接聊到了一点多,聊到最后大家还是恋恋不舍[哭惹R] 我觉得这一次体验感完美主要是因为全女局,每一个女孩子都很好,没有不合时宜的玩笑也没有登味说教,每一个人都在耐心倾听,互相给予对方的肯定和支持,感觉聊完后整个人都放松了下来~

Wuhan mystery-box drinks night | High-quality, low-desire socializing for adults

Translated from Chinese

I prefer quiet, loose gatherings, and I refuse noisy, perfunctory, useless socializing. I went to a mystery-box drinks night on short notice. The experience was unexpectedly clean and high-grade. At a cocktail bar on Taipei Road with a very comfortable tone. Dark-toned atmosphere, lights soft and not showy. No clamor. Very suited to emptying out, idle talk, and a light buzz. Everyone at the table had a sense of measure, and mild temperaments. No awkward stiff chat, no deliberate warming-up of the room, no useless small talk. The topic cards broke the ice gently and quickly took the edge off the unfamiliarity between strangers. Not awkward, no social death, no forced interaction. After the icebreaker, free idle talk the whole way. The pace was very slow, and very loose. Everyone chatted as they liked and shared ordinary days. Being together was comfortable and at ease. Compared with deliberate liveliness, I love this kind of high-quality socializing that is full of a sense of measure. No need to cater, no need to pretend, no need to force yourself to fit in. A brief meeting with strangers on the same wavelength. It wore down the tiredness, a moderate relaxing, a just-right kind of lovely. A rare easy in-person experience.

偏爱安静松弛的局,拒绝喧闹敷衍的无效社交 临时赴了一场盲盒酒局 体验感出乎意料的干净高级🥂 在台北路一家调性很舒服的鸡尾酒吧 暗调氛围、灯光温柔不浮夸 没有嘈杂吵闹,很适合放空、闲谈、轻度微醺🌃 同桌都很有分寸感、性格温和 没有尴尬尬聊、没有刻意热场、没有无效寒暄 话题卡牌温柔破冰,快速消解陌生人的生疏感 不尴尬、不社死、不强行互动 破冰过后全程自由闲谈,节奏很慢、很松弛 大家随性聊天、分享日常,相处舒服又自在 比起刻意热闹更爱这种分寸感十足的高质量社交 不用迎合、不用伪装、不用强行合群 和同频的陌生人短暂相遇 消解疲惫,适度放松,恰到好处的美好 难得一次轻松的线下体验🤍

A new social experience in Wuhan: a mystery-box drinks night

Translated from Chinese

Lately my mood has not been very good. I happened to see the social mystery box and tried it. A very new way of socializing. Beforehand I had no idea at all what the tablemates would be like. I didn't expect to be so surprised after I got there. Everyone had their own table card. Through the table cards you could see each person's personality and how they differ. The chatting was also very happy. I could learn about many fields I didn't know. There was a photographer, a university teacher in business, and a younger girl who had come back from a gap in Shanghai. Every one of them has a lot of their own thinking. Through this conversation, I felt that a part of my own thinking opened up. Especially, during her gap, the younger girl talked about many AI-related directions. I really learned a great deal. The little cards also had some very interesting topics, for example: when was the last time you felt sad? Why? These questions look very simple, but they can actually get people thinking and discussing. No fear of an awkward silence at all. There was always a topic to talk about. Every card face had a lot on it. I talked a lot, from the heart, with strangers. It felt like I had been given a very relaxing massage of the mind. I hope next time I can still have an experience this happy.

最近心情并没有很好,刚好看到了社交盲盒,体验一下。 很新颖的社交模式,事先完全不知道会是什么样的同桌,没想到去了之后很惊喜,每个人都有自己的桌牌卡,可以通过桌牌卡看到每个人的性格和不同,聊天也是非常开心,能了解很多自己不知道的领域。 有摄影师,有大学商科老师,有从上海gap回来的妹妹,每个人都非常有思想。通过这次交谈,感觉打开了自己的一部分思维,特别是在gap期间妹妹讲了很多AI相关的方向,真的长了很多见识。 小卡还有一些很有意思的话题,比如最近一次难过是什么时候?为什么?这些问题看起来很简单,但其实还挺能引人思考讨论的。 完全不怕冷场,一直都有话题聊,每张卡面都很有内容。跟陌生人交心的聊了很多,感觉好像做了一场很放松的精神按摩,希望下次还能有如此开心的体验。

Such an interesting event in Nanjing! Randomly meeting a few new friends on the same frequency

Translated from Chinese

The blind-box drinking gathering that is very popular in Shanghai is in Nanjing now too!! Every day I cycle inside a fixed social circle, and I rarely have a chance to meet new friends. This time I went to a blind-box drinking gathering. The place and the tablemates were both unknown (the venue is told 24 hours before the start). The venue was near Xinjiekou. The setting was comfortable, and the house specials tasted good too. When we arrived, everyone had their own social identity card, and there were also topic cards customized from our interest tags. The icebreaking was easy. This time a whole table of girls was filled, and there was no awkward going-cold at all!! We sipped and chatted at ease, sharing each person's daily life with each other. After it ended we signed and left messages on each other's cards. (They give you a card sleeve and a magnet!! You can stick the card right on the fridge! It really means something as a keepsake!) No need to go to the trouble of putting a gathering together. Running into a group of people on the same frequency added some surprises to a plain workday. Please throw a lot more of this kind of interesting event at me.

上海很火的盲盒酒局南京也有了!! 每天循环在固定的社交圈子里,很少有机会去认识新的朋友。这次打卡了盲盒酒局🍸 地点和同桌都是未知(开场前24h会告知场地)场地在新街口附近,环境舒服,特调口感也👍🏻 到场每个人都有专属社交身份卡,还有根据我们的兴趣标签定制的话题卡~轻轻松松破冰❤️ 这次凑齐了一桌女孩子,完全没有尴尬冷场!!一边小酌一边自在闲聊,大家互相分享着各自的日常,结束后在对方的卡片上签名留言(✨会送卡套和磁铁!!刚好可以把卡片贴到冰箱上!好有纪念意义!) 不用费心组局,偶遇一群同频的人,给平淡的工作日增添了一些惊喜🤩这种有意思的活动请多多砸向我

Nanjing nightlife | the blind-box drinking gathering was really so healing

Translated from Chinese

My first time experiencing a blind-box drinking gathering in Nanjing was a complete unexpected surprise. The feel of the experience was maxed out right away. Before I set out I was actually a bit uneasy. Mild social anxiety really fears awkward chat and a cold silence with strangers. It turned out I had really worried too much. The tablemates the blind box matched me with were all extremely good people. A table of young people from different industries and completely different paths through life. There was a gentle, sensitive admin girl who is especially good at listening. She speaks softly and is very healing. There was a sunny guy, cheerful and funny, who carried the atmosphere the whole time. He is very good at catching a joke and never lets it go cold. And there was a same-age girl, clear-headed and easygoing, whose three views fit extremely well. A lot of ideas clicked at once. The whole time we broke the ice easily with topic cards. They really understand social anxiety. No need to force a topic, no need for awkward greetings. We slowly opened the talk along the cards. The card that left the deepest impression: what small thing has healed you recently? Everyone took turns sharing ordinary, unremarkable fragments of their own lives. Someone said it was the evening wind after work, when you are not rushing the time. Someone said it was a nice sunset glow they happened to photograph. Someone else said that the self who occasionally empties out and does not have to hurry on the road is the most healing. No inspirational talk, no showing off. All of it was ordinary people's most real small, sure joys. The more we talked, the more relaxed it got, and in an instant it pulled everyone's distance closer. There was another very interesting topic: if you had one completely free day, how would you spend it? Everyone's imaginations opened up, and they shared each person's ideal relaxed life. Someone wanted to stay home, lie flat, and binge shows. Someone wanted to wander the streets and look in on shops with no aim. Someone just wanted to sit in the wind, stare into space, and properly empty out. Each person's way of living is different, but everyone listened gently and respected each other. Views collided, and yet it was especially comfortable. The atmosphere was really so good. From daily hobbies and ways of letting off pressure, we talked to mindset at work and thoughts on life. The whole time was sincere and easy. No socializing for gain, no awkward politeness. A few people who had been strangers, without noticing, got very absorbed in the talk. The highlight of the whole event that hit me most was, before the end, everyone handwriting blessing cards together, seriously writing gentle messages for strangers they had spent only one night with. The kindness of a chance meeting, sincere and burning hot. I was really moved hard by this unfamiliar tenderness. I really love the atmosphere of this little Nanjing bar. Warm, soft light, quiet and relaxed. So suited to putting down tiredness at night and slowly emptying yourself. After we broke up, I walked slowly home into Nanjing's evening wind. On the way I also ran into a lazy little cat. The gentle evening wind, the cute little cat, the warm strangers. Suddenly I felt that Nanjing's nights are really so gentle. I used to habitually stay in my own comfort zone. Only today did I find that occasionally jumping bravely out of a fixed track of life really can bring a whole lot of unexpected warmth and surprises.

A Nanjing night of 6 strangers, heavenly socializing that hooks you more than dating

Translated from Chinese

First time experiencing a blind-box drinking gathering. I was still picturing a scene of social death in my head. In the end I laughed the whole night until my face was sore. You really can be hit by a stranger's kindness. A table of six people, different paths through life: a curator who spends the years soaking in art museums; a travel lover who just quit and is on a gap; a gentle programmer who deals with code every day; and a startup guy who comes with joke-king qualities built in. The topic cards are simply good news for the socially anxious. "What is one small thing that has healed you recently?" From movies we like, we talked to how we understand life. This kind of meeting that carries the unknown is the most moving. The bar lights were gentle, and a big golden retriever was sitting at the door. You never know, with the next glass, what kind of soul you will meet.

第一次体验盲盒酒局🍸 本来还在脑补社死现场 结果一整晚笑到脸酸😬 真的会被陌生人的善意戳中 一桌六个人,是不同的人生轨迹: 🎨常年泡美术馆的策展人 🏄刚辞职gap的旅行爱好者 💻每天和代码打交道的温柔程序员 🧑‍💼还有自带梗王属性的创业男生 话题卡牌简直是社恐福音 ✨「你最近治愈你的一件小事是什么」 从喜欢的电影聊到对生活的理解 这种带着未知的相遇才最动人 酒吧灯光温柔,门口蹲着大金毛🐶 你永远不知道下一杯酒 会遇到什么样的灵魂👀

Nanjing drinking gathering | a blind-box talk after finals week

Translated from Chinese

I pulled myself out of the chaos of finals week and signed up for a blind-box drinking gathering. There was no social script set in advance. I brought an emptied brain, and I got a relaxed, same-frequency late-night talk. The 6 people at the table came from completely different industry tracks. Planets that had been parallel, because of one active try and cards the organizer designed well, shared each other's paths over a few drinks and a stretch of time. The topics on the cards had both depth and breadth. No need to look for a topic on purpose. We opened the talk along the questions. Everyone was very sincere and accepting. The bar owner was also especially cheerful and interesting, and from time to time joined in to chat. During it there was a topic that left a deep impression on me: "Would you rather have a brief brilliance, or a long and ordinary life?" I chose "a brief brilliance," and I also gave my own explanation. The minerals of rock-color pigment have an extremely strong "attribute of time." Minerals are almost eternal in the long river of time. In daily work and study I am always dealing with this kind of material that "lives as long as heaven and earth," so instead I have no fixation on an individual's "long life." For me, a long life is more like a long farewell in which you keep watching the people beside you leave. A companion at the table who chose "a long and ordinary life" said they know brilliance can be met but not sought, and because they are at ease with that, they chose a long and ordinary life. But this is also the reason I chose a brief brilliance. Precisely because brilliance can be met but not sought, I want it. What left a deep impression was another companion at the table who chose "a long and ordinary life" saying, "Life is a practice to begin with." Everyone just quietly listened to each other's different views of life. The respect, the listening, and the empathy of that moment were a particularly gentle thing. We talked about a lot all night, about life and about choices. Actually, which specific sentence was said by whom, I can no longer quite remember. But this state of "not quite remembering" instead proves that it was a pure, immersive, comfortable and relaxed field of energy. When we broke up, people did not have that tiredness of socializing coming to an end. Instead, with a shared sense of it, everyone was looking forward to seeing each other next time. From this moment until the next time we meet, this stretch of time, because there is one more share of "looking forward," has all become shining. In this fast-paced city, being able to meet a group of people who are gentle, interesting, and know how to respect each other really was a very happy and comfortable experience. Grateful for the meeting.

从期末周的兵荒马乱里抽离出来,报名参加了盲盒酒局。没有社交预设,带着一个放空的大脑,收获了一场放松、同频的深夜Talk。 同桌的6个人,来自截然不同的行业赛道。原本平行的行星,因为一次主动的探索和主办方设计得很好的卡牌,在几杯酒、一段时间里,分享了彼此的轨迹。牌面话题有深度也有广度,不需要刻意找话题,顺着问题聊开,大家都很真诚、包容。酒吧老板也特别开朗有趣,时不时加入进来一起聊天。 期间有个话题我印象深刻:“你更想要短暂辉煌,还是长寿普通?” 我选择了“短暂辉煌。”也给出了自己的解释。岩彩矿物具有极强的“时间属性”。矿物在时间的长河里几乎是永恒的,日常工作学习里总是跟这种“与天地同寿”的物质打交道,我反而对个体的“长寿”没有什么执念。对于我来说长寿更像是一场不断看着身边人离开的、漫长的告别。同桌选择“长寿普通”的伙伴说知道辉煌可遇不可求,因为坦然,所以选择了长寿普通,不过这也同样是我选择短暂辉煌的原因,正因为辉煌可遇不可求,所以我想要。印象深刻的是,同桌另一个选择“长寿普通”的伙伴说,“人生本就是一场修行。”大家只是安静地听着彼此不同的生命观,那一刻的尊重、倾听和共情,是一件特别温柔的事。 一晚上聊了很多,关于生活、关于选择,其实具体哪句话是谁说的,我已经记不太清了。但这种“记不清”的状态,反而证明了那是场纯粹地、沉浸地、舒适放松的能量场。 散场时大家没有那种社交结束的疲惫,反而都很默契地期待着下一次再见。 从这一刻开始,到下一次见面之间的这段时光,因为多了一份“期待”,都变得闪闪发光。在这个快节奏的城市里,能遇到一群温柔、有趣、懂得尊重彼此的人,真的是一次非常幸福舒适的体验。感恩遇见 💙

A Nanjing night | who understands the happiness of one slightly tipsy glass

Translated from Chinese

To wash off the work smell after getting off, you have to join some interesting gatherings. A blind-box drinking gathering, a random group of 6, an all-women table, was really so satisfying!! Everyone has their own identity card. The interaction part was really very interesting. Questions raised online appear offline in the form of cards. Everyone drank and talked, sharing what they had seen and heard. The atmosphere was really very relaxed!! Everyone was the best listener. Everyone's work histories were also rich. People of different ages got to know each other through just a few hours of late-night free talk. There were internet workers, a pianist, freelancers... all of them shining in the fields they are good at. The question that left a deeper impression was what kind of life you want: lris wants one that is free, spontaneous, and without restraint; Holly wants to bravely be herself; as for me, I like a plain, happy, and healthy life. I ordered 2 small drinks with a friend, and they were good too. Little Jerry's Staple: the taste of the drink was very rich, and the outside wall was scattered all over with crumbs of cheese, making a special feeling. Matcha Floating Cloud: a particularly fresh taste, and the milk cap on top was very good to drink. Refreshing and good. Really very nice. I have already started looking forward to the next date.

下班扫除班味就得参加一些有意思的聚会 盲盒酒局 随机6人一组全女局真的太爽了!! 每个人都有专属身份牌~互动环节真的很有意思 线上提出的问题会在线下以卡片的形式出现 大家边喝酒边聊天分享自己的见闻 氛围真的很松弛!!每个人都是最好的倾听者 大家的职业经历也很丰富,不同年龄段的大家经过短短几小时深夜畅聊了解彼此..有互联网工作者、钢琴家、自由职业者..都有在自己擅长的领域闪闪发光✨ 印象比较深的问题是你想要怎样的人生: lris想要自由随性无拘无束的;Holly则是想要勇敢做自己;我的话是喜欢平淡幸福且健康的人生. 和朋友点了2杯小酒也很好喝哦⬇️ ·小杰瑞的主食 酒的味道很浓郁 外壁撒满了芝士奶酪碎,营造一种特别的感觉 ·抹茶浮云 是特别清新的口感,上面的奶盖很好喝 清爽又好喝 真的很不错 已经开始期待下一次的约会了🥺

Between the cups it is wine, and it is also stories

Translated from Chinese

Pushing open that door was like opening a blind box. I did not know who I would meet tonight, and I did not know what kind of life I would hear. When the wine was poured full, the talk opened. What we talked about was not how far each person had walked before, but where they still wanted to go. Someone said that next month they would wander by the sea for a few days. Someone planned to save up enough courage to change to another city and start again. Someone said, smiling, that they wanted to learn a new skill, and that it was all right even if it was a bit slow. A girl told about going to chase the aurora. She said she had originally set out alone, and on the road she picked up a few companions to travel with: a young woman from Korea, and a guy who had just left the army. Everyone laughed and talked the whole way, competing to carry her bag, take photos for her, and, in the middle of the night, wrapped in blankets, keep her company waiting for the sky to clear. She smiled and gestured, and said that without quite knowing how, she became the group's favorite, and was taken care of properly and thoroughly. As she told it, she herself started laughing first. She said she actually did not wait out the most brilliant display of the aurora, but the feeling, over those few days, of being surrounded and cared for by a group of people was brighter than the aurora. In that instant I suddenly felt that it turns out everyone carries a journey like this in their heart. The destination may not have been reached, but the kindness and warmth along the way last longer than any scenery. It turns out the most charming thing about this drinking gathering was watching a group of strangers seriously tell what tomorrow looks like. Those places not yet reached, and the selves not yet become, were spread on the table, hotter than the wine. The gathering broke up, and each person set out on their own road, but the light of that night will follow for a long time. I hope we have a better future. Listen to other people's directions, and along the way sort out your own road. We are all still on the road, and we are all still lit.

推开那扇门,像拆开一个盲盒,不知道今晚会遇见谁,也不知道会听见怎样的人生。 酒倒满,话就开了。聊的不是从前走了多远,而是各自还想去哪儿——有人说下个月要去海边晃几天,有人计划攒够勇气换一座城市重新开始,有人笑着说要学一门新本事,哪怕慢一点也没关系。 有个姑娘讲起她去追极光的事。说原本是独自上路的,结果路上捡了几个搭伙的小伙伴——一个韩国来的小姐姐,一个刚退伍的兵哥哥,大家一路上有说有笑,抢着帮她拎包、替她拍照、半夜裹着毯子陪她等天晴。她笑着比划,说自己稀里糊涂就成了团宠,被照顾得妥妥帖帖。讲着讲着,她自己先乐了,说极光其实没等到最绚烂的那一场,但那几天里被一群人围着关心的感觉,比极光还亮。 那一瞬间忽然觉得,原来每个人心里都装着这样一段旅程。目的地也许没去到,但沿途的善意和温度,却比任何风景都长久。 原来这场酒局最迷人的,是看着一群陌生人,认认真真地讲着明天的模样。那些还没抵达的地方、还没成为的自己,摊在桌上,比酒还热。 散了场,各自上路,但那一晚的光,会跟着走很久。 希望我们拥有更好的未来。听听别人的方向,也顺便理一理自己的路。我们都还在路上,也都还在亮着。

Facing data at work, facing a countersign after work | a blind box that talked its way into the heart

Translated from Chinese

By day I am a manufacturing PM. A squat beside the production line is half a day. Paperwork until I see stars. Even if a supplier's quote is off by a zero, I have to pull it out and battle. In the boss's eyes I am "that very nitpicky person." But if I don't face the data, how do I watch the yield rate? After work I ducked into a blind-box gathering. Tonight's rule was — there are no rules. No need to face the data, no need to write minutes. Who sits across from you is decided entirely by one card. I thought it would just be casually having a couple of drinks and relaxing. I didn't expect that a few strangers at the table would talk and talk until we got carried away. Someone had just quit a big tech company with nothing lined up and was preparing for a gap year. Someone had just graduated and decided to switch from architecture to it. Later on, everyone suddenly sighed: each stage of life does not have to follow a script. There is nothing that is "a thing you must do when the time comes." That sentence hit me directly. Lately I happen to be stuck on some life decisions. After I heard it, I suddenly felt I could let out that breath. It turns out that giving up the "sense of control" and embracing randomness brings not only relaxation, but also an unexpected new way of seeing things. A night in Suzhou, it turns out, does not have to be spent talking about KPIs.

白天是制造业PM,产线旁一蹲就是半天,paper work做到眼冒金星,连供应商报价差个零都要揪出来battle。老板眼里我是“那个很计较的人”,但不对数据怎么盯良率?🤯 下班钻进盲盒局,今晚的规则是——没有规则。不需要对数据,不需要写纪要,坐对面的是谁,全凭一张卡牌说了算。✨ 本以为就是随便喝两杯放松一下,没想到同桌几个陌生人聊着聊着就上了头。有人刚从大厂裸辞准备gap year,有人刚毕业决定从建筑转行做it,聊到后来大家突然感慨:人生每个阶段并不是非要按剧本走,没有什么是“到点就必须做的事”。 这句话直接戳中我。最近正好在卡一些人生决定,听完突然觉得松了那么一口气。原来放弃“掌控感”去拥抱随机,收获的不只是放松,还有意外的新视角。 苏州的夜,原来可以不用聊KPI。🥂

A record of an all-E mystery-box drinks night! | Suzhou

Translated from Chinese

Deep Water Zone bar. A cute little tavern that is a cafe by day and a bar by night. There is a black cat in the shop, and a lot of regulars. The illustrations were drawn by the barista, and they are especially fun and cute. The craft beer is easy to drink too, a sour-sweet white-peach flavor, and the alcohol doesn't feel very strong. The setting made tonight feel more like an easy version of a coffee chat than a drinks night. This matching randomly put me with an almost all-E lineup. The strange part is that the five people come from all over and from different industries, but we easily found hobbies and topics in common, for example all liking cats and dogs, loving badminton and swimming, liking city walks, and enjoying life... Another coincidence: all five people sitting there are the age of those born from 2000 to 2002! Their education backgrounds are fairly similar too. Everyone is strong at expressing themselves and at thinking, and the personalities were all very nice. Meeting here was entirely an unexpected joy. Before we noticed, we had talked until eleven. After it ended we arranged the next gathering. Looking forward to seeing each other next week!!

📍DEEP WATER ZONE深水区酒吧🐈‍⬛ 一家可爱的日咖夜酒小酒馆,店里有一只黑猫和很多熟客,插画是咖啡师画的特别有趣可爱,精酿也很好入口,是酸酸甜甜的白桃风味,酒精感不会很重,这里环境让今晚比起酒局更像轻松版的coffee chat☕️ 这次的匹配机制让我随机匹配到了几乎全 e 人阵容,很神奇的是五个人来自五湖四海和不同行业,但是很容易找到了共同的爱好和话题,比如都喜欢猫猫狗狗、热爱羽毛球和游泳、喜欢 city walk 和享受生活……😋 很巧的是在座五个人都是00~02年的年纪!教育经历也比较相似,大家都是表达能力和思考能力很强的人,性格也都非常 nice,在这里相遇完全是意外之喜,不知不觉就聊到了十一点,结束之后又约了下一次的聚会,期待下周相见!!

What strange fate! The Suzhou mystery-box friends are all art students!

Translated from Chinese

This six-person mystery-box drinks night I randomly showed up for really was beyond what I expected. Although our ages and jobs are all different, we actually unboxed a whole table of art students. This matching is too uncanny! At the start I was still worried it would be very awkward. In fact, outgoing friends led us along. The name interaction at the very beginning also left the deepest impression on me. Everyone's names were super interesting, hahaha! Then we relied on the topics and interactive games on the table. Everyone took turns sharing their views. No perfunctory politeness. Each person was listening seriously. None of the restraint I had imagined. The whole thing was loose and comfortable. The shortcoming is that time passed super fast, hahaha. At the end of the event, we wrote a blessing meant for that person on the back of each other's identity cards. A special arranged gathering. I got to know new friends who were different. I spent this evening very happily!

🗯这次随机赴约的六人盲盒酒局,真的出乎意料,虽然我们年龄工作都不相同,但竟然开出一桌全是艺术生,这匹配也太神奇了! 🔆最开始还担心会很尴尬,实际上有外向的友友会带着我们一起,最开始的名字互动也让我印象最深,大家的名字都超级有趣哈哈哈! 🧩然后我们依靠桌上的话题和互动游戏,大家轮流分享观点,没有敷衍客套,每个人都在认真倾听,没有想象的拘束感,整场下来松弛又舒服,缺点就是时间过的超级快哈哈哈。活动最后,我们互相在对方身份卡背面写下了专属祝福语。 💞一场特别的组局,认识到了不一样的新朋友,这个晚上过的很开心!

Tried a One Night Only once in Suzhou

Translated from Chinese

I went to a mystery-box drinks night for strangers. Before the event starts, the platform, based on the information each person filled in, uses an algorithm to match six people to sit at the same table. Before I showed up, I roughly knew the tablemates' interests and lines of work. The little box on the table held identity cards and topic cards. Maybe because it was an all-women table, or because of the algorithm's matching, we got talking quickly. A lot of things you wouldn't go out of your way to say to people you know can instead come out very naturally at a drinking table of strangers. Without our noticing, we sat together for a few hours, drinking and talking, and briefly entered each other's lives. It gave me a very concrete sense of company. It's a kind of company that makes no promises about later and doesn't ask for anything in return. It only existed that night, and it was still real. I started to understand that line on the opening screen: "Seek nothing, and there is something gained." It is not telling people to arrive with truly no expectations at all. That we are willing to sign up, fill in information, and spend time going out already shows that we still expect something of connection between people. We just no longer require that every meeting must produce a result. It doesn't have to expand a network. It doesn't have to be meeting love. It doesn't have to become long-term friends after it ends. It may only be that, outside a life that repeats, you want to hear a few unfamiliar lives, and spend one evening together with a group of people you otherwise would never have met. Relationships at work carry cooperation and benefit. Relationships with acquaintances need to be kept up continuously. Social apps quickly put people into screening by looks, conditions, and purpose. We still need a kind of relationship that sits between acquaintances and strangers. No need to take on a long-term...

我去参加了一场盲盒陌生人酒局。 活动开始前平台会根据每个人填写的信息, 通过算法匹配六个人坐到同一张桌子上。 赴约前大概知道同桌们的兴趣/行业 桌上的小盒子里装着身份卡和话题卡。 可能是全女局或者算法的匹配 我们很快就聊开了。 很多平时不会特意对熟人说的话, 反而可以很自然地出现在一张陌生人的酒桌上。 我们不知不觉一起坐了几个小时, 喝酒、聊天,短暂地进入了彼此的生活。 给我一种很具体的陪伴感。 这种陪伴不承诺以后,也不要求结果。 只存在于那个晚上,却依然真实。 我开始理解开屏那句“无所求,有所得”。 它不是让人真的不带任何期待来到现场。 我们愿意报名、填写信息、花时间出门, 本身就说明我们对人与人之间的连接仍然有所期待。 只是我们不再要求每一次见面都必须产生结果。 不一定要拓展人脉,不一定要遇见爱情,也不一定要在结束后成为长期朋友。 可能只是想在重复的生活之外,听听几种陌生的人生,和一群原本不会遇见的人,共同度过一个晚上。 工作中的关系带着合作和利益, 熟人关系需要持续维护, 社交软件让人快速进入外貌、条件和目的的筛选。 我们还需要一种介于熟人和陌生人之间的关系。 不用承担长期责

About the first time I joined a Suzhou mystery-box drinks night

Translated from Chinese

First time at a mystery-box drinks night. More than who I got to know, I like that feeling of "so this is how everyone is living." This year of coming to Suzhou for a master's, I have kept feeling that this city is very big. Aside from classmates I met at school, it is hard to widen any other circle of my own. So I joined this mystery-box drinks night with a let's-try-it attitude. Among the new friends met at one mystery-box table, only one is a local girl born and raised here. The rest had all made their way here from elsewhere. There is even one who had been in Suzhou for only a month. Very strange. Fate brought us together. The differences in where everyone is are interesting too. Only I am still on campus doing a master's. The other friends have all already entered the workplace. Experiences from all kinds of work let me see many different ways of living. Stepping out of a student's point of view, I saw lives with more variety. Everyone's different jobs are like different prisms, refracting a spectrum of life different from mine. Worth mentioning: when I said "I really want to go to work so badly..." all the girls said: "Don't!! School is still the best!" Sure enough, only after you have started working do you understand the pain of working... A comfortable all-women lineup. The chat was loose and at ease. No stiff politeness. No awkward silence. No being looked over. No forced socializing. From work to daily life. From the city to feelings. Then, for no clear reason, we got onto MBTI (laugh). MBTI really is a very good social lifesaver. When we broke up, the daytime heat had already been blown away by the evening wind. We come from all over, but on this night we shared the same Jiangnan night. I very much look forward to a next time, a chance to meet more interesting people. Maybe next time I can switch to another city.

第一次参加盲盒酒局 比起认识了谁 更喜欢那种“原来大家都这样生活着”的感觉 . 来苏州读研的这一年 一直觉得这座城市很大 除了在学校认识的同学 很难拓展自己其他的圈子 所以抱着试一试的心态参加了这场盲盒酒局 一桌盲盒结识的新朋友里 只有一位是土生土长的本地女孩 其余都是奔赴到此的异乡人 甚至还有一位刚来苏州一个月 很奇妙 缘分让我们相聚在一起 · 大家的状态差别也很有意思 只有我还在校园读研 其余的朋友都已经步入职场 各行各业的经历 让我看到许多不一样的生活模式 跳出学生视角看见了更多元的人生 大家不同的工作岗位像不同的棱镜 折射出与我不同的人生光谱 值得一提的是 当我说出 “我真的好想上班…”的时候 所有女孩们都说:“不要!!还是上学最好!” 果然只有上班了才会懂上班的痛… · 舒服的全女阵容 聊天氛围松弛自在 不用拘谨客套 没有冷场 没有审视 没有硬社交 从工作到生活 从城市到感情 再莫名其妙聊到MBTI(笑) MBTI真是很好的社交救星啊 · 散场时白天的燥热已经被晚风吹散 我们来自五湖四海 却在这一晚 共享了同一片江南夜色 十分期待下一次能有机会遇见更多有趣的小伙伴 或许下次我可以再换个城市🧐🥰
