I know full well that neither my destiny chart (命盘) readings nor my knowledge community are accessible to young people from ordinary families. The consultation fee speaks for itself — the vast majority of people who seek me out are adults who have already achieved some measure of success in life. But this also means I’ve been unable to help the many readers still mired in mediocrity.
Well then. Let me write something that distills everything I know.
Student Question
Hello, Master Chi. There’s a beautiful female PhD in someone’s circle. She has modest career success, comes from a good family, and achieved basic financial independence in her thirties. She knows it’s hard to find a partner who meets all her standards — and she has no interest in legally registering a marriage with a man and sharing her wealth. After all, for wealthy people, marriage is the most expensive thing. It’s an investment, and if it goes wrong, it shrinks your assets.
Because you were conditioned to be too obedient from childhood. Every hardship you endure doesn’t become the nourishment that strengthens you — instead, it becomes the capital that fuels someone else’s rise.
That kind of suffering? Better not to suffer it at all.
Let me explain this clearly so you can sit with it.
The truth is, many people are destined to become society’s weak the moment they’re born — not because they lack talent, not because they’re slow to learn, not because their destiny chart is poor. None of that.
When I was just starting out, I had none of the experience I carry today. I hadn’t sought out masters at the heights of their fields, hadn’t yet served the elite households of true wealth and influence. And so, like many, I mistakenly believed that breaking through in life came down to one word: hustle.
But after reading an enormous volume of destiny charts (命盘) at the highest levels, I came to a sobering realization: grinding blindly, fighting stupidly, charging ahead without direction — these don’t just accomplish nothing. They drain you of the very energy you can least afford to waste. In the end, all you’ve done is moved yourself emotionally. No real progress. Nothing of substance. Truly absurd.
Among all women, there is one kind I admire above all: the so-called “woman of high discernment.”
Based on my vast experience reading destiny charts (命盘), these women are destined for a path that begins constrained and opens into abundance — their lives grow smoother with each passing year. A woman of high discernment needs only the slightest guidance for her destiny to ignite like a finishing brushstroke that brings a painting to life. Once set in motion, she is unstoppable.
The hottest topic of the past couple of days is, of course, the gossip surrounding Zhang the Gambler and Miss Jing.
The story blew up so completely that even someone like me — someone who hasn’t paid attention to the entertainment world in years — was forced to learn the full picture. That tells you just how wild it got.
Honestly though, I don’t think this topic deserves much more discussion. What’s out there now isn’t even the real story. The truly damning material hasn’t surfaced yet.
Student Question: Hello Master, I’m 32 years old. I have a journalism degree and work in real estate copywriting. Eight years in, my salary has grown from 3,000 to 15,000 RMB. But I’m unhappy at work, and the overtime is relentless.
I want to quit and go freelance — no more nine-to-five. My time would be entirely my own.
But I’m a little worried about what life will look like after that. I’d appreciate your guidance, Master.
Above all else in life, be wary of “pushing too hard.”
What this means is: never throw yourself into hysteria or all-or-nothing desperation just to achieve a goal.
The harder you push like this, the faster you burn through your willpower and mental energy.
There’s simply no need for it. If you want to accomplish great things in this world, the secret comes down to four words: gradual, steady progress.
Student Question Master, I perform well at my job, but being introverted, I rarely feel comfortable knocking on my leader’s door to give updates. Over time, I feel like I’m losing out — yet I don’t know how to calibrate the right level of closeness. I want to get closer, but it fills me with anxiety.
Master Chi’s Response The warmth of your relationship with your leader determines the height of your career. There’s one approach that works especially well — and it comes down to a single idea: when good things happen, treat your leader like an ordinary person.
Starting from absolute zero — hounded daily by Macau debt collectors.
To slowly finding his footing again and reclaiming a net worth in the hundreds of millions — my friend Su accomplished his full comeback in just five years.
I still remember it clearly. Many years ago, a down-and-out middle-aged man tracked me down through a winding chain of mutual connections, determined to find me.
His purpose was simple: he wanted me to read his destiny chart (命盘) and tell him honestly whether he had any chance at all of turning his life around.
