in memory of Jia, Haoyu

In memory of Jia, Haoyu

he was called Weiwei when we were both little. my mother used to take me to their place to visit his mother, an college friend of my mom. we used to run around in Qingyuan and spend time in the playground with athletic instruments.

now news came saying that he jumped from top of a 12-floor in Qingyuan, where he grew up, where his and my parents studied and lived together.

I haven't met him since primary school. heard that he went to nankai high school and got admitted by qinghua. after coming back from jp after two years of graduate school, he had some trouble finding a job in China, because of his major, but finally started working in bj three months before the tragedy.

words from multiple acquaintances suggested he had some depression and had taken some medicine when in Japan, but somehow he was pushed back to the wave of billions of busy lives of Chinese young people, and lost himself.

this is the first real people I know that killed himself.

韩寒与韩寒的粉丝

（说韩寒，不是特指他。也适用于别的粉丝很多的人物）

韩寒的粉丝很多，我们来按网民和读者来分：

网民而非读者——看新浪博客抢沙发，爱到weibo上转发只字片语，爱骂那些骂韩寒的人，不买韩寒书，也不太自信看下载的韩寒的书

读者而非网民——书，每本都买来看，可能还去豆瓣评论，博客也跟，但不到weibo上追星。

当然也有既是网民又是认真读者的，我也不知道有多少，就不去追究了。如果有，那么这么迷韩寒的是不是也会跟着对赛车感兴趣？

就说网民这一块。韩寒如果不写博客杂文，只写写书，网上能有这么多人追捧这么多人打骂么？不会，因为没地方复制粘贴。也就说很多网民粉丝，因为看韩寒的杂文博客，写的幽默俏皮，合网民口味，所以转发，好像是自己写的一样，很有面子。你要让他从书里面找东西，打字敲进来，加引号，加出处，可难为死了。

可韩寒其实也是经常骂这些网民的，你们都是人民的代表/取样，代表了全中国在网上闲逛的人的素质。可是韩寒还是很多人粉，因为骂网民的话一出来，大家就都觉得自己是素质比较高的网民，而被骂的是素质比较低的，以后看见讨厌的，就可以把韩寒的话搬出来，说骂的就是你这种。当然对面可能搬出来另外一句话也说骂的就是你这种。

韩寒能受这么多关注，也是个有意思的现象，也就是在咱中国。在哪个国家，一个作家/车手，写写博客，能有这么好几百万的粉丝？就像他自己说的，在哪个国家，畅销书作家也没有像在天朝收入这么低一样。这都是天朝特有的现象。
