With the continuous improvement of our country’s economic strength, the lives of our Chinese people are getting better and better. Many friends will choose to travel during the holidays to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. Some friends who are well-off , and even travel abroad to broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge. Of course, as long as it is within the scope of your abilities, it is understandable.

However, the protagonist in today’s story, despite his family’s obstruction, sold his house in order to travel and spent hundreds of millions of savings. Seven years later, what are they doing now?

His name is Zhang Xinyu. He is a young man born and raised in Beijing. He has been very lively and active since he was a child. Influenced by his family, Zhang Xinyu has longed for life in the military camp since he was a child, so he went to serve as a soldier after graduating from high school. After being discharged from the army, Zhang Xinyu had no idea what to do, so he returned home and opened a snack shop. He usually sold barbecue and late-night snacks, and from time to time he invited relatives and friends to eat skewers together. It was a very cool day.

It was also at a party that Zhang Xinyu met her, Liang Hong, a classmate from elementary school. Although the two had not seen each other for many years, they talked happily. Gradually, the two got closer and closer. Falling in love, Liang Hong became his fiancée.

With a fiancée, he naturally has more responsibilities. Zhang Xinyu can no longer open a small shop to make a living like before. He has to give Liang Hong a better future, so he runs the barbecue shop while He set up a stall selling cold drinks and contracted the public toilets nearby. The hard-working and hard-working Zhang Xinyu quickly developed his business into a prosperous place. His fiancée Liang Hong was extremely pleased. Later, Zhang Xinyu also became a jewelry agent. In just a few years, they earned several million. Adding in the profit from the store, the couple actually had assets of over 100 million.

Zhang Xinyu said: "At that time, we played with cars, spent money, and then worked and made money... Life entered a kind of 'cycle' where 'successful people' look beautiful. But sometimes we both It felt boring, life shouldn't be like this. But at that time, we didn't seem to know how to change it." So the couple just "fucked" until an earthquake in 2008 changed their lives.

On May 12, 2008, an 8.0-magnitude earthquake occurred in Wenchuan County, Sichuan Province. 69,227 people died, 374,643 people were injured, and 17,923 people were missing. It was the most destructive earthquake since the founding of the People's Republic of China and became China's most destructive earthquake. It's a pain that people can never forget in their lifetime.

After the earthquake, Zhang Xinyu and his wife immediately set up the "Beijing Hope" rescue team and rushed to Wenchuan to participate in the disaster relief. They looked at the collapsed houses, broken trees, and the heartbreaking feeling after losing their loved ones. The cries of Zhang Xinyu and his wife were so deeply impacted that after returning to Beijing, Zhang Xinyu suffered from slight depression. The shocking scene made Zhang Xinyu start to think: How should people live?

After discussion, the couple officially decided to embark on a trip around the world. In order to successfully complete this plan, the two people learned various skills, such as driving helicopters, driving motor boats, motorboats, diving, rock climbing, gliding, etc., as well as various survival skills. After five years of preparation, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong were ready to leave. In order to support the travel expenses, they even sold their house.

On July 5, 2013, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong set sail from Shanghai on the sailing ship "Beijing". After 231 days and 35,000 kilometers of sailing, they finally arrived at Antarctica. The reason why Zhang Xinyu chose this place as the first place Actually, he had "selfish" intentions. It turned out that he wanted to marry Liang Hong here.

On February 25, 2014, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong held a wedding at the Antarctic Great Wall Station. They were the first Chinese couple to hold a wedding in Antarctica. They looked at the surprise that their husband had prepared for themselves. , Liang Hong cried happily and hugged her tightly. Then they continued their journey.

In the following days, the two traveled westward, traveling through 16 Middle Eastern countries including Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and Egypt. During this journey, they encountered many dangers. For example, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong used architectural light and shadow technology to restore the Bamiyan Buddhas that were blown up by the Taliban. When the Taliban learned about it, they immediately offered a reward of US$100,000 for their lives.

The couple had no regrets about this. Zhang Xinyu said: "That's culture. We just want to do something meaningful for the local area."

Then they came again Arriving at the Malum Crater, known as the "Eye of Hell," Zhang Xinyu was suspended by a rope and lowered into the crater where the temperature was as high as 1,150 degrees Celsius. Finally, he planted the Chinese flag on the rock wall of the crater. , at that moment, Zhang Xinyu was moved to tears.

But the most unforgettable thing for them was what they saw in Somalia, where war was raging, smoke was everywhere, and displaced people were everywhere. Their eyes were empty and they walked around like zombies, witnessing with their own eyes After all this, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong realized how lucky they were to live in a peaceful China.

The more they saw and the farther they traveled, the more the couple wanted to do something for the world, and their spiritual world became enriched, but soon the funds they prepared for the trip were exhausted. After spending all the money, they began to sell off their domestic properties in order to continue traveling. Their family fortune of hundreds of millions was "lost" in this way. Their family and friends could not understand it, but they still persisted and traveled to more than 100 countries.

At the same time, the couple also made a "reality show" based on what they saw and heard during their travels, called "Couple Travel". Countless people watched it and became a couple. Fans of the two, and even Mercedes-Benz later came to sponsor them. Relying on this show, the couple actually made nearly 200 million, fulfilling their dream and making money at the same time. It was really the best of both worlds.

Now, Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong have their own children, but their travels are still continuing. We look forward to them bringing us more surprises in the future.
