In an old house in the countryside of Putian, Fujian, there lives a "gaming genius" — earning tens of thousands of yuan a month through esports, controlling the outcomes of the virtual world with his fingertips. Yet when his peers were moving to cities to settle down one after another, this young man chose to stay in his hometown. His story is far more dramatic than any game.
In this episode of "Happy Encounter User Endorsement", let’s get close to Xiaobai, a post-2000s gamer, and feel the unknown story behind his journey from the virtual battlefield to taking control of his life.
The Price of Gullibility: A Storm Planted by a "Friend"Young loyalty cost Xiaobai a heavy price. He once lent his bank card to a so-called friend, unaware that the latter would use it for fraud. Overnight, his savings were wiped out, and he was swamped with debts. "After this incident, every time I saw my parents, I felt a deep sense of guilt and remorse. I realized that life is no match for games — if you fail in a game, you can start over, but if you fail in life, you might not get a second chance." This misfortune shattered Xiaobai’s esports dream and made him see the gap between reality and virtuality: a lost game can be replayed, but a wrong step in life may take years to make up for.

From Virtual Battlefield to Real LifePutting down the mouse and keyboard, Xiaobai began to learn live-streaming e-commerce on short-video platforms. Though he started slowly, every step was steady. The days of repaying debts taught him to be thrifty and also sparked his obsession with "having his own car". However, his credit issues stood like a high wall in his way. Until one day, he came across Xixiangfeng Group’s car purchase plan on a short-video platform. "I was worried that my qualifications might prevent me from buying a car, but later I learned from short videos that Xixiangfeng had such a solution." He then tried his luck at Xixiangfeng in Fuzhou and passed the review. On the same day, he drove his new car back from Fuzhou.

The Warmth in Details Touches the Heart MostWhen talking about his car purchase experience, Xiaobai couldn’t help but praise it. Even though he arrived at the store late at night, the salesperson patiently explained the plans, helped him choose a model, and stayed busy until past 1 a.m. "Their service was great. They first took us to the lounge to rest and offered us water. Then they asked if I had a favorite car, so I looked around, picked this one, and they presented me with various plans." This responsible attitude made Xiaobai, who once sought comfort in the virtual world, feel reliable support in reality for the first time.

Step on the Gas and Drive Toward a New LifeWith a new car, Xiaobai also set new life goals: renovating the old house and accompanying his child in studies. Xiaobai, who rose from difficulties, proved to us that there is no dead end in life — only new starting points. With flexible plans and sincere services, Xixiangfeng Group has helped countless ordinary people like Xiaobai, who were temporarily down on their luck, realize their dream of owning a new car and accompanied them to a broader future. Here, a car is not just a means of transportation, but a key to restarting life — because Xixiangfeng firmly believes that as long as you’re heading in the right direction, no matter how far the road is, you’ll eventually arrive.
