# Annotated Consolidated Edition of the Charter of Life Action (2026-09-26) **The Charter of Life Action for Cosmopolitanization, Globalization and Internationalization (60th Principled Final Revision) — Main Text · with Commentary in the Style of the Tang Code with Sub-commentary** **Editorial Basis**: The Commentary on the Charter of Life Action (in the format of the Tang Code with Sub-commentary · consolidated master edition; date of compilation 25 September 2026) **Version**: Main Text (2026-09-26 edition); Commentary (2026-09-25 edition). Format: the Main Text is the warp and the Commentary the weft; after each article's text follows that article's 【Commentary】 note. --- # Volume Front: Introduction to the Commentary ## General Rules 1. **The nature of this Commentary**: This Commentary is a systematic interpretive text on the system of the Charter of Life Action (Main Charter + Amendments + Annexes); it is an auxiliary tool for understanding and for uniform application, and does not itself constitute any amendment, supplement or alteration of the Charter's text; the provisions remain subject to the authoritative text signed by the Author. What is called "currently in force" is determined by what is recorded in the Complete Catalogue of the Subject and Annex System of the Charter of Life Action (Final Updated Edition · 20260822). 2. **The format of this Commentary**: Following the Tang Code with Sub-commentary, each article is divided into: - 【Statute】 — the original text of the provision (transcribed verbatim; where exceptionally lengthy enumerative text exists, its gist is excerpted, with a note "the full text is subject to the authoritative text"); - 【Commentary】 — "The Commentary says" (shuyi yue), explaining the purpose for which the article was established, the institutional evolution, and its position within the Charter system; - 【Discussion】 — "The Discussion says" (yi yue), explaining sentence by sentence and word by word the meaning of the provisions, the rules of application, and exceptional circumstances; - 【Question】【Answer】 — where a meaning is doubtful or an application disputed, a question and answer are set to resolve it; - 【Cross-ref】 — marking the provisions, amendments or annexes related to the article, so as to permit mutual verification. 3. **The arrangement of the volumes**: The Main Charter, by its content and drawing on the spirit of the chapter divisions of the Tang Code with Sub-commentary, is divided into twelve volumes; the amendment system into one volume (with eleven sections); the annex system into nine volumes. The ordering of the volumes is detailed in the Table of Volumes. 4. **Application of terminology**: At the end of the Charter's text it is expressly provided that "all references to 'employee' in this text, whether or not specially stated, shall mean one or more of civil and commercial partners, civil and commercial cooperators, and employees (the same throughout)". This Commentary follows this principle in all respects: wherever expressions concern organization and manpower, compliant terms such as "company member", "partner", "cooperator", "governance", "collaboration" and "review and countersignature" are uniformly used, and expressions of the employment system or the hierarchical-bureaucratic system are not adopted. Only where 【Statute】 transcribes the original text are the old terms in the original retained as written, in order to make the contrast clear; under the exemption clause of the comparison table of the TERM-REVIEW-001 General Rules for Terminology-Consistency Review, their very appearance is itself compliant and is not regarded as a violation. 5. **Basis of citation**: This Commentary cites only currently effective formal documents, namely: the Main Charter (including the currently effective portions of successive amendments), the documents of the amendment system, the documents of the annex system, and interpretation letters and interpretive documents that have taken effect through formal procedures. Appended materials (Part Four · documents requiring filing), analytical and summary-type documents, and repealed historical versions are not cited at all. 6. **Versions and evolution**: The Charter system adopts the conflict rules of "new rules prevail over old" and "special prevails over general". Where a provision has been modified by an amendment, a corrective act or a revision, this Commentary notes the evolution in 【Commentary】 and 【Cross-ref】; where article numbers have been adjusted in successive revisions, a 【Legislative History】 note is set at the end of the article, and its application is determined in accordance with Article 126 【The Principle of Applying the Latest Charter】. --- ## Consolidated General Preface The Commentary says: In any book of a charter, one first gives the general and then the particular, the root and then the branches, and only then does it form a system. Now, upon instruction, the Commentary on the Main Charter, the Commentary on the Amendments and the Commentary on the Annexes have been consolidated into one and compiled into a single book. The order of its arrangement, according to the hierarchy of effect and the nature of the documents, is divided into three parts: **Part One — The Main Charter** — article-by-article commentary on Articles 1 to 145 of the Main Charter, in twelve volumes. Beginning with Volume One, the Chapter on Names and Purposes, it passes through the Chapter on the Ideal Life, the Chapter on the Baseline of Life, the Chapter on Survival and Core Assets, the Chapter on Core Principles of Action, the Chapter on Career and Business, the Chapter on Debt Repayment, the Chapter on Thinking Models, the Chapter on Civil Activities and Political Neutrality, the Chapter on Intellectual Property and Marriage and Family, and the Chapter on Growth and Iteration, and ends with Volume Twelve, the Chapter on Supplementary Provisions and Civilizational Belief. The Main Charter is the fundamental law of the system; the entire philosophical foundation, ranking of values, baseline of conduct and ultimate goal of life are all contained in this part. **Part Two — The Amendment System** — the commentary on the First to Third Amendments, the Amendment 20240609, the Supplementary Amendment on the Boundaries of Helping Others, Corrective Act (2), Corrective Act (3), Annex A.06.001 the Civil-Cooperation Amendment, the newly added provision of Article 144 on the Binary Iron Rule of Organizational Participation, and Corrective Acts (4) and (5), in one volume with eleven sections. **Part Three — The Annex System** — the commentary on Series A (Individual Ethics and Life) to Series H (Interpretation Letters), in nine volumes. The order of all three parts proceeds from the fundamental law to the amending and modifying amendments, and then to implementing rules of the same effect — from the root to the branches, from the outline to the detail; the whole picture of the Charter's interpretation is fully seen herein.

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article is the general outline of the entire Charter; it clarifies the reason for legislation and where the purpose lies. A charter is not the ordinance of a state nor something imposed by others, but the fundamental law enacted by a "sovereign individual" for his own life. It is established with three meanings: first, **to set the direction** — to clearly set for "the Author" the direction of life advancement (namely, the life-development path of "Yujun-Characteristic Cosmism"); second, **to establish sovereignty** — to reduce the influence of the outside world upon the Author's life course to the "minimum necessary limit", which is precisely the origin of the "minimum necessary" principle found throughout the text; third, **to establish the basis** — to enumerate the several grounds on which the charter is founded: life perspective, vision, dream, ideals, ultimate target identity, mission, values, minimalism and logic. By coming straight to the point, it establishes the Author as the legislator and sovereign of his own life. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Yujun-Characteristic Cosmism" is the proper name of the Author's life path, formed by combining the characters of the Author's own name (Yujun) with the idea of "cosmism", denoting his unique path of transcending nations and taking himself as a cosmic citizen; it is the two sides of the same coin with Article 7 【The Ideal of the Universal Cosmic Citizen】. The phrase "to reduce the influence of the outside world ... to the minimum necessary limit" is the general spirit of all the Charter's prohibitive provisions and self-determination provisions: any intervention, evaluation or interference by the outside world that is not "minimum necessary" should be excluded. "Minimalism" is not only a way of life but also the methodology of charter-making — cutting away the redundant and keeping the essential, paring the complex down to the simple. The "principle of logic", akin to "essentialism" and "first principles", is the keynote by which this Charter governs subjective wishes with objective reason. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** Since the Charter is established for "the Author", does its effect extend only to the Author personally, or does it also bind others? | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Answer】** The Charter is a charter of self-restraint by the Author; the bearer of its obligations is the Author alone. Others are not bound by this Charter, nor may they assert rights against the Author on the basis of this Charter. Yet when the Author conducts external dealings on the basis of the baselines and principles he has set for himself, the spirit of the Charter naturally extends to all his actions. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 1-2 【Supreme Programmatic Ideal】, Article 7 【The Ideal of the Universal Cosmic Citizen】, Article 33 【The First Principle of Personal Values;

and, on that basis, with a sustained altruistic mindset to continuously learn–think–act, and with the ideal of the cosmic citizen, to continuously help promote the building of an open, inclusive, mutual-learning, mutual-benchmarking, jointly-consulted, jointly-built and shared, universally safe, commonly prosperous and universally win-win world-class and cosmicized new ecology, as the supreme programmatic ideal of life. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** To promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind and a cosmic-civilization community with a shared future;

and, on that basis, with a sustained altruistic mindset to continuously learn–think–act, and with the ideal of the cosmic citizen, to continuously help promote the building of an open, inclusive, mutual-learning, mutual-benchmarking, jointly-consulted, jointly-built and shared, universally safe, commonly prosperous and universally win-win world-class and cosmicized new ecology, as the supreme programmatic ideal of life. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: The preceding article clarifies the reason for charter-making; this article establishes the Charter's "supreme program". The program has two aspects: the first is the **personal goal** — a sojourning venture-capital-style life and the establishment of three types of corporate legal-person entities (a private investment bank, a private internationalized sound asset-management company, and a private fundraising fund company); the second is the **civilizational goal** — with the ideal of the cosmic citizen, to help build the universally win-win ecology of the "community with a shared future for mankind" and the "cosmic-civilization community with a shared future". This article elevates the striving of individual life to the height of civilizational concern, and is the fountainhead of the "altruist" keynote of this Charter. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Community with a shared future for mankind" and "cosmic-civilization community with a shared future" are the core concepts of the Author's life ideal; the former extends to all mankind, the latter further extends to the cosmic scope, echoing Article 7's "cosmic public law" and "cosmic-level political ecology". "With a sustained altruistic mindset to continuously learn–think–act" prescribes the dynamic mechanism of the Author's life: taking altruism as the mental method and "learn–think–act" as the cycle, renewing day by day. The sixteen characters "open, inclusive, mutual-learning, mutual-benchmarking, jointly-consulted, jointly-built and shared" and "universally safe, commonly prosperous and universally win-win" are the civilizational prospect this life seeks to contribute to. Note that the "three types of corporate legal-person entities" of this article were adjusted in Article 8-4 and in the First Amendment; see the 【Legislative History】 of that article for details. |

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article takes the "ideal personality" as its key and enumerates all the qualities, abilities, identities and visions that the Author aspires to (thirty-two or more items in all), forming the "general register of personality" of the whole text. Its legislative purpose lies in setting, on the condition of "simultaneously conforming to all of the following descriptions", a coordinate of personality by which the Author may calibrate himself, so that all action may have something to rest upon. The Tang Code with Sub-commentary has the "Ten Abominations" in its Chapter on Names and General Principles; this article, inverting that meaning, establishes an "ideal personality of complete goodness", which is the grand summation of the Charter's values. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: These thirty-odd items may be broadly divided into four categories: the **dispositional category** — such as unconditional self-confidence, not being arrogant or proud, seeking truth from facts, strong inner drive, an extremely peaceful state of mind, lifelong learning, and long-termism; the **baseline category** — such as the tiered baseline standards of the "anti-illegality principle" in items (11) to (15); the **ability-and-identity category** — such as multilingual person, multilingual writer, international sojourner, professional entrepreneur, investor, private-fund manager; and the **ultimate-vision category** — such as item (32), "establishing a private transnational family-office group corporate legal-person entity". Item (32) was amended by the **First Amendment**, changing the original "private investment bank group corporate legal-person entity" to "private transnational family-office group corporate legal-person entity", adapting to the adjustment of the direction of life development from traditional financial institutions to the field of family wealth management. Item (19) takes "before the age of 35 earning at least 1 million yuan per month in non-labor income and being able to earn a total amount of currency of 1 billion to 10 billion yuan" as a financial yardstick, dovetailing with the goals of Article 8 and Article 21. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** If the Author fails to conform to all the items enumerated in this article, does he violate the Charter?

Its legislative purpose lies in establishing an unshakable order for the trade-offs of life's values: wealth may be lost, but rights may not be taken away; things may be discarded, but body and freedom may not be exchanged. Together with the "ranking of values" in the following article, it forms the value skeleton of the Charter. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: Among the thirteen rights, the first three (the right to life, the right to subsistence, the right to basic health) are rights of the body and are absolutely non-transferable; the middle group (rest, independent and autonomous decision-making, freedom of action, learning and growth, independent thinking) are the freedoms of mind and action; the latter group (speech, publishing, assembly, association) are the freedoms of expression and union; and (13) the autonomy of corporate legal-person operation is the institutional guarantee for the Author's life "venture-capital" undertaking. The phrase "greater than money and assets" does not negate the value of money but establishes a hierarchy — whenever the two conflict, one takes the right and gives up the goods. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 4 【Ranking of Values】, Articles 12 to 17 【The Baseline of Life】, Article 57 【Working for Others, Entrepreneurship and Other Sources of Cash Flow】, Article 98 【The Absolute Ultimate Baseline of Life Activities】. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 4 【Ranking of Values and the Order of a Natural Person's Transfer of Rights】 The Author's ideal life values follow, in overall principle, the ordering of "truth / law" greater than or equal to "human wishes / interests" greater than emotion ("truth / law" ≥ "human wishes / interests" > emotion).

Its meaning is threefold: first, the **general order** — "truth / law" ≥ "human wishes / interests" > emotion; second, the **detailed items** — forty-seven subject matters in all, arranged in order of importance from first to last; third, the **method of transfer** — in exchange and transfer, one transfers from the last toward the first, and items 1 to 10 "may never be transferred at any time". | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The general order reveals the rational undertone of the Author's life — objective truth and law stand above subjective wishes and interests, and still more above transient emotion. The method of transfer is the operating rule of a "transactionalized" outlook on life: what may be transferred begins from the last, and what may not be transferred (the first 10 items) is guarded with one's very person. The items listed above may be grouped into three layers: the **baseline layer** (items 1–10: life, subsistence, bodily integrity, health, freedom, conviction, trust, exploration of truth, learning and growth, life ideal); the **resource layer** (items 11–21: credit, intangible resources, influence, leadership, decision-making power, reputation, connections, etc.); and the **asset layer** (item 22 "long-term asset subject-matter system" and item 23 onward: political rights, social responsibility, currency, family responsibility, etc.). Under item 22 are further listed equity interests, shares, IPR assets (copyright, trademark rights, patent rights), passive income (usufructuary rights, funds, precious metals, insurance, trusts, etc.), dividend rights and the like — in effect an "asset constitution". | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** If two non-transferable items conflict (e.g., the right to life and the right to freedom), how should one deal with it?

The right to life (item 1) occupies the supreme place; wherever the right to life conflicts with the remaining items, the right to life is given priority. Yet, in accordance with Articles 12 and 13, the Author also takes "not personally violating the punishment of fixed-term imprisonment of seven years or more" as an absolute baseline; the two should be viewed together. |

| **【Statute】** The essential summary of the common sources of human fear is as follows: (1) the loss of one's own life; (2) deprivation of personal liberty and of the freedom of the right to think

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article dissects the essence of fear; it is in truth the reverse projection of the ranking of values of the preceding article — whatever one fears is whatever one treasures. By clarifying the sources of fear, one knows the target of prevention. The legislative purpose lies in turning the vague "fear" into identifiable subject matters, so that the Author may govern emotion with reason and aim with precision. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The sources of fear correspond broadly to the value list of the preceding article, while further revealing its psychological mechanism — fear is born of the expectation of "loss". On this basis, the Author's risk management takes "not losing what he treasures" as its key: protecting his assets by insurance, trusts and identity allocation (item 6); protecting his developmental opportunities by multilingual and cross-cultural abilities (item 12); protecting his credit by prudent promising and maximum good faith (item 4); and protecting his social recognition by few but deep associations (item 13).

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: With sixteen characters this article establishes the general rule of the Author's conduct — concise in words yet rich in meaning, it is the "mental method of conduct" of the whole text. The first eight characters speak of "faithfulness" — the way toward others; the middle eight characters speak of "change" — the way toward oneself; the last eight characters speak of "constancy" — the way toward time. The three assist one another, constituting the complete posture of the Author in dealing with the world. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Prudent promises, maximum good faith" means to be doubly cautious before making a promise and to keep the promise as good as gold after making it; it is mutually referential with the principle of good faith of Article 90 and the exemption mechanism of Article 91. "Dare to correct, abandon face" is the psychological premise of the Author's life "self-iteration" (Articles 108, 109) — the courage to admit error surpasses the cleverness of glossing over faults. "Long-termism, steady progress far" is the general source of the long-termist thinking of Article 70. "Faithfulness" and "change" appear contrary but in fact complete each other: faithfulness toward others must not be lightly altered, while one's own faults must be bravely corrected. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 90 【The Principle of Good Faith】, Article 91 【Exemption from the Principle of Good Faith】, Article 70 【Long-Termist Thinking】, Article 108 【Bug Discovery and Iteration】, Article 109 【A Growth Mindset】. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 7 【The Ideal of the Universal Cosmic Citizen】 The ideal of the universal cosmic citizen is an idealistic belief: the mind of the universal cosmic citizen does not harbour any constraint by concepts such as any existing state, political party or political proposition, and holds that every place in the world, even the entire cosmos, may be gone to, without any restriction; any matter that does not violate mandatory legal provisions may, under specific conditions, be done; it advocates establishing a "cosmic public law" and a "cosmic-level political ecology", and seeking the life state of "universal win-win" and "the sovereign of all under heaven". +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The ideal of the universal cosmic citizen is an idealistic belief: the mind of the universal cosmic citizen does not harbour any constraint by concepts such as any existing state, political party or political proposition, and holds that every place in the world, even the entire cosmos, may be gone to, without any restriction;

Its essential meaning is threefold: first, **freedom from national-ethnic constraint** — not bound by the concepts of any existing state, political party or political proposition; second, **universal accessibility** — every place in the world, even the cosmos, may be gone to; third, **acting in accordance with law** — any matter that does not violate mandatory legal provisions may, under specific conditions, be done. This is the intellectual fountainhead of the provisions on "political neutrality" and "non-participation in war" in Articles 94 to 99. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Cosmic citizen" is not a legal status but an idealistic status — a self-identification and worldview transcending national boundaries. This article is the formal declaration of "cosmism", in the same lineage as the "cosmism" path of Article 1 and the "cosmic-civilization community with a shared future" of Article 1-2. The phrases "cosmic public law", "cosmic-level political ecology" and "the sovereign of all under heaven" mark the ultimate configuration the Author aspires to. It must be noted, however, that this article takes "not violating mandatory legal provisions" as the boundary of action, jointly safeguarding the legal baseline together with Article 98 【The Absolute Ultimate Baseline of Life Activities】 and Article 125 【Response to Amendment of Laws and Regulations】. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** Being a cosmic citizen, may one then be free from the binding of the law of any state? | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Answer】** No. A cosmic citizen is a transcendence in ideal, not an exemption in law. Wherever one is within the territory of a state or place, one is bound by its currently effective law; Article 125 of the Charter expressly provides that where the Charter irreconcilably conflicts with the mandatory provisions of the laws and regulations of the place where one is, the Charter's provisions shall be amended in accordance with law and then implemented. Thus the "cosmic vision" of this article and the "legal baseline" are not mutually exclusive. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 1 【Purposes of the Charter】, Article 1-2 【Supreme Programmatic Ideal】, Article 93 【The Meaning of Patriotism and Exemptions】, Articles 94 to 99, Article 125 【Response to Amendment of Laws and Regulations】. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | ##

and, on that basis, to engage in activities related to international business, finance, trade and operations — entrepreneurship, investment, private fundraising fund (including equity-investment and securities-investment types) operation and management, establishment and operation of asset-management companies, and global asset allocation for the individual and the family — and thereby, through a monthly cash-flow income of RMB 100k+, ultimately to enjoy the maximally feasible liberalized ideal life state and mode of a private and independent sojourning-style private office mode and way of life. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article sets out in detail the Author's "picture of the ideal life", as the concrete unfolding of the "direction of life advancement" of Article 1. Its structure is threefold — "means – path – object": with the sojourning and the planning and organizing of foreign-related affairs as the **means**, with entrepreneurship, investment, private funds and asset management as the **path**, and with "a monthly cash-flow income of RMB 100k+" and "a private and independent sojourning-style free life" as the **object**. Together with Article 8-2 (sequential direction), Article 8-3 (red lines for venture capital), Article 8-4 (substitutability of a private fund) and Article 8-5 (non-monetary capital contribution), this article forms the complete norm of the "ideal life". | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "A sojourning manner" is not a matter of touring, but the core working-and-living form of the Author's life (interlinked with Article 22 【The Life Condition of Global Sojourning】). "Foreign-related affairs", grounded in language, cover consulting, planning, agency, exhibitions, translation, publishing and the like, conforming to the Author's identities (Article 2) as "a multilingual person, a multilingual writer and an international sojourner". "A monthly cash-flow income of RMB 100k+" is the quantified threshold of the free life, linked into a financial ladder with Article 18 【The Daily Cash-Flow Baseline of USD 45】, Article 19 【Cash Reserves】 and Article 21 【The Final Goal】. The bracketed note "the minimum feasible condition is to obtain ... the fund-practitioner qualification and the securities-practitioner qualification" is the compliance premise for entering the field of private funds. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Articles 8-2 to 8-5, Article 21 【The Final Goal of Life】, Article 22 【The Life Condition of Global Sojourning】, Article 57 【Sources of Cash Flow】, Article 107 【Smooth Career-Industry Leaps, Part One】. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 8-2 【Sequential Arrangement of the Directions of Life's Advancement】 The Author's directions of life advancement are arranged in the following order; at each step it suffices to perform only the "minimum feasible essentialist step": (1) by means of such industries as consulting, planning ³, intermediary, agency, leasing and finance (including private equity funds, private securities funds and their internationalization and globalization), conduct small-amount transactions aimed at specific subject matters of specific needs; (Note: ³ it may be done orally or in writing.) (2) when the minimum feasible conditions provided by the Company Law are met, establish a corporate legal-person entity, and when revenue reaches 100 million+ yuan, at the same time plan and design the top-level structure of a 【group-oriented】 corporate legal-person entity; (3) when revenue stabilizes at CNY 300k+, begin to recruit 1–2 assistants; (4) when revenue stabilizes at CNY 1 million+, begin to recruit 1–2 company members, civil and commercial partners, civil and commercial cooperators, engaged personnel, civil and commercial partners, civil and commercial cooperators, engaged personnel (workers); (5) when revenue reaches 1 million+, begin to document and standardize the business; (6) when revenue reaches 10 million+, begin to strengthen marketing activities and raise the per-client transaction value; (7) when revenue reaches 100 million+, begin to restructure the business model of the entire operation (carrying out the top-level design of a membership system and a club system, and of internationalization and ecologicalization); (8) when revenue reaches 100 million+ and the individual's idle surplus funds on hand reach 1 million+ or more, begin to establish a private fund and conduct equity investment, and thereafter an asset-management company should be established. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The Author's directions of life advancement are arranged in the following order;

This "laddering + minimum feasible" method of advancement is the methodological feature of the Author's life strategy, of the same mental method as Article 49 【The MVP Principle】 and Article 59 【The General Model of Business Development】. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The order of the ladder proceeds from "small-amount transactions" to "establishing a legal person", "forming a team" and "group-oriented structure", echoing Article 54 【The Core and Critical Matters on Which to Focus at Each Stage from Penniless to the World's Richest】. Wherever the expression "recruiting personnel" is involved, in accordance with the express provision of terminology at the end of the Charter's text, the words "company member", "engaged personnel" and the like should be understood as one or more of civil and commercial partners, civil and commercial cooperators and engaged personnel; the organizational form of the Author's life takes partnership and cooperation as its main body, and does not adopt the employment-and-hierarchy system. |

--- ### Article 8-3 【Red Lines for the Author's Venture-Capital Activities】 The Author's red lines for venture-capital activities are as follows: (1) assets with negative cash flow are impermissible: ① total cost amount; ② down payment or monthly instalment; ③ macro composite interest rate; ④ cash flow; ⑤ total liabilities; ⑥ own funds. (2) loans whose bank monthly instalment and interest exceed the positive cash inflow are impermissible. (3) In financing from venture capital (VC), one resolutely does not sign a personal joint-and-several guarantee. (4) In principle, one only launches asset-light, zero-cost or low-cost entrepreneurial projects. (5) Other circumstances essentially the same that harm the Author's rights and interests of the same nature or a similar nature in terms of the clauses. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The Author's red lines for venture-capital activities are as follows: (1) assets with negative cash flow are impermissible: ① total cost amount; ② down payment or monthly instalment; ③ macro composite interest rate; ④ cash flow; ⑤ total liabilities; ⑥ own funds.

Together with Article 8-4 "a private fund is not indispensable", Article 8-5, and the series of debt provisions of Article 68, it safeguards the baseline of the Author's financial safety. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: Items (1) and (2) are the "financial red line" — assets with negative cash flow, and loans whose monthly instalment exceeds the cash inflow, are categorically impermissible; this is the iron rule of "cash-flow-ism", in the same lineage as Articles 17, 19 and 21. Item (3) is the "guarantee red line" — once a "personal joint-and-several guarantee" is signed, personal liberty and asset safety are placed in the hands of others, and so it is resolutely not signed. Item (4) is the "asset-structure red line" — in principle only asset-light projects are undertaken, and the burden of heavy assets is contrary to the aspiration of "global sojourning". |

--- ### Article 8-4 【Substitutability of the Establishment of a Private Fund】 In accordance with law and the principles of this Charter, and under this Charter, the Author lists the establishment of a private fund as an optional item, but in no circumstances is it a mandatory life project **#This provision was added under Article 3 of the First Amendment, lowering the mandatory requirement for the establishment of a private fund, providing greater flexibility for life planning and avoiding single-path dependence#*.

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article was added by the First Amendment, loosening the constraints on the "ideal life" — changing the establishment of a private fund from "mandatory" to "optional". Its meaning is: the paths of life run in parallel, not trapped by a single path; this is the principle of "substitutability". | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article is referential with Article 8-2 (sequential direction) and Article 107 (career leaps), showing that the Author's planning of life is wise in "running multiple paths in parallel and advancing at the right time", rather than proceeding rigidly along one. The three major corporate legal-person entities listed in Article 1-2 (an investment bank, an asset-management company, a private fund company) may henceforth all be optional, as conditions and circumstances dictate. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 1-2 【Supreme Programmatic Ideal】, Article 8, Article 8-5, Article 107 【Career Leaps】, the First Amendment (Annex A.01.001). | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 8-5 【Permissibility of Non-Monetary Ways for Shareholders to Enter Investment】 Under this Charter, in the Author's ways of investing (in any corporate, enterprise or other legal-person or non-legal-person entity), non-monetary ways for shareholders to enter investment are permissible and may be realized through: (1) by equity; (2) by debt; (3) by intellectual property rights (IPR); (4) by the right to use specific subject matter that may be contributed as capital in accordance with law and may be appraised; (5) by a combined investment of one or more of the other non-monetary subject matters for shareholders' entry that may be lawfully used **#This provision was added under Article 4 of the First Amendment, expanding the diversity of investment methods, adapting to the investment needs of different asset types (such as intellectual property and rights to use subject matter) and reducing dependence on monetary funds#*. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** Under this Charter, in the Author's ways of investing (in corporate, enterprise and other legal-person or non-legal-person entities), non-monetary ways for shareholders to enter investment are permissible, and the ways of investment may be realized through: (1) by equity; (2) by debt; (3) by intellectual property rights (IPR); (4) by the right to use specific subject matter that may be contributed as capital in accordance with law and may be appraised; (5) by a combined investment of one or more of the other non-monetary subject matters for shareholders' entry that may be lawfully used. *(This provision was added under Article 4 of the First Amendment.)* | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article was added by the First Amendment, broadening the "capital-contribution" means of investment and permitting entry by non-monetary means such as equity, debt, intellectual property and rights to use subject matter, providing diversity for asset allocation and reducing dependence on monetary funds. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article echoes Articles 100 to 103 【Provisions on Intellectual Property】 and Article 21 【The Final Goal of Equity, Debt, Securities, etc.】, showing the Author's asset outlook of "taking IPR as the pillar of the Financial Ark". The valuation and compliance of non-monetary capital contributions must be carried out in accordance with the currently effective Company Law and the relevant departmental rules. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 8, Article 21, Articles 100 to 103 【Intellectual Property】, the First Amendment (Annex A.01.001). | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 9 【On the Formulation, Implementation Expectations and Mechanisms of the Strategies, Plans and Programs Covered by This Charter】 The author of this Charter ought to formulate the relevant expected indicators, implementation mechanisms and supervision mechanisms for the formulation and implementation of this Charter, the Author's life strategy, implementation guidelines, programs and plans, and to make a good deployment of the action content of the relevant persons (including but not limited to the relevant planners, directors, organizers, implementers and supervisors), including but not limited to the relevant specific content statements, evaluation dimensions and their statements, and the relevant data-based indicators; to make a good mechanism for the expectation management and coordination of the relevant persons; to adhere to the principle of disclosing to the corresponding counterparts the relevant minimum feasible necessary information, and to appropriately maintain confidentiality of the relevant specific information from unspecified groups and unrelated persons (including relatives); and at the same time to carry out the implementation of the supervision and inspection of the established tasks. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The author of this Charter ought to formulate the relevant expected indicators, implementation mechanisms and supervision mechanisms for the formulation and implementation of this Charter, the Author's life strategy, implementation guidelines, programs and plans, and to make a good deployment of the action content of the relevant persons (including the relevant specific content statements, evaluation dimensions and their statements, and the relevant data-based indicators); to make a good mechanism for the expectation management and coordination of the relevant persons; to adhere to the principle of disclosing (disclose) to the corresponding counterparts the relevant minimum feasible necessary information, and to appropriately maintain confidentiality of the relevant specific information from unspecified groups and unrelated persons (including relatives);

Its essential points are three: **setting indicators** (expected indicators, data-based indicators, evaluation dimensions) — so that goals may be measured; **establishing mechanisms** (implementation mechanism, supervision mechanism, expectation-management and coordination mechanism) — so that action may be traced; and **setting information rules** (minimum necessary disclosure to counterparts, appropriate confidentiality from unrelated persons) — so that information may be controlled. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article transplants the logic of "goal – execution – supervision – coordination" of corporate governance into the governance of individual life, a feature of this Charter's "governing the person by the way of governing an enterprise". The principle of "minimum feasible necessary information disclosure" is mutually referential with Article 91 【Exemption from Good Faith】, Article 114 【Payment-Based Screening】 and Annex A.05.001 【Credit Evaluation】. The essence of the supervision mechanism lies in the realization of the "established tasks", carried on with Article 119 【The Principle of Regular Review】. |

currency as a medium of trust and as a material foundation, and through creating assets that can run automatically (companies, etc.), to obtain the freedom of the possibility of personal choice and to transform the existing wage structure and corporate governance model, and thereby to fulfil social responsibility and realize the Author's life mission and vision.

Its meaning is: the ultimate purpose of entrepreneurship, investment and private-fund management is not merely to make money, but to **create assets that can run automatically in order to obtain freedom** and to **transform the old wage structure and corporate governance model**, and thereby to fulfil social responsibility and realize the life vision. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Creating assets that can run automatically" is the purpose of Article 20 【Core-Asset Creation】 — exchanging the automatic running of assets for the free choice of the person. "Transforming the existing wage structure and corporate governance model" is the social ideal of de-employment-ization and the promotion of partnership and cooperation, interlinked with Article 10, Article 58 【The Essence of Wages】 and Article 63 【The Stages of the Financial Ark】.

The "comprehensive management ability" includes capital management, fund management, organizational management and core-personnel management, referential with Article 8-3 【Red Lines for Venture

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article is the Charter's **absolute baseline**, declaring the boundary of the Author's conduct that may not be crossed — "fixed-term imprisonment of seven years or more". The establishment of this article does not grant what may be done, but is a **self-imposed limit**: taking the severest punishment of the criminal law as the measure, it draws out a zone that "must never be entered". The absolute baseline standard of item (11) of Article 2, the "anti-illegality principle", originates precisely here. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article takes "fixed-term imprisonment of seven years or more (deprivation of political rights for life)" as the absolute measure, and its legislative technique is ingenious: rather than enumerating prohibited matters one by one, it uses the "magnitude of punishment" as the standard, which automatically adjusts with amendments to the criminal law (see Annex H.01.001, the Interpretation Letter). The nature of the "risk-boundary yardstick" shown in Article 125 【Response to Amendment of Laws and Regulations】 and the final paragraph of Article 127 is manifested here — this article is a "limitation", not an "authorization". Article 13 further, taking "not personally violating" as the limit, enumerates the various absolute prohibitions. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** If the "seven years or more" of this article changes upon amendment of the criminal law, does the Charter not change accordingly? | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Answer】** Indeed. This article takes the magnitude of punishment as its yardstick, not a fixed article number; therefore, when the criminal law is amended, the standard automatically updates with the criminal law and its judicial interpretations, without any need to amend the Charter. Annex H.01.001, the Interpretation Letter, has already given authoritative interpretation on this; see that letter. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 13, Article 14, Article 49, Article 79, Annex H.01.001 【Interpretation Letter】, Article 125. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 13 【Supplementary Explanation of the Declaration of the Absolute Baseline of Life】 The Author's absolute baseline is, in principle, not to personally violate [where necessary, it may be discussed with others for them to implement on his behalf], as applicable at the time the conduct occurs: (1) fixed-term imprisonment of seven years or more (excluding this figure) for a single crime; (2) the corresponding provisions of the criminal law and the judicial interpretations of relevant laws for cumulative fixed-term imprisonment of twenty years (including this figure) or more, or life imprisonment or more, in concurrent punishment for several crimes;

for concurrent punishment of several crimes not exceeding twenty years (excluding this figure, in effect an upper limit); and the Author himself absolutely not subject to death or life imprisonment. Its legislative purpose lies in using a quantifiable term of imprisonment as the boundary, so as to make the baseline clear and discernible. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The phrase of this article, "in principle not to personally violate ... where necessary, it may be discussed with others for them to implement on his behalf", is the operating rule of the "anti-illegality principle": in principle the Author does not personally perform an act that touches the absolute baseline, and where necessary (within the limit of an acceptable term of imprisonment) may resort to agency, while strictly observing the procedures of application and review of Articles 14 and 15. Note that "for a single crime at most ten years' imprisonment, and for multiple acts at most twenty years" is a psychological threshold under "extreme circumstances", not an encouragement to do so; Article 14 expressly provides that it is a "special and extraordinary means" and a "transitional, temporary means", and may not be taken as a long-term strategy. |

Among the items listed, those depriving others of life, subsistence or health are the foremost prohibition; those participating in drug, mafia, terrorist or extremist organizations, owing to the "rigid, criminal" nature of such organizations, echo Article 144 【The Binary Iron Rule of Organizational Participation】 and Article 61 【Negative List of Themes for Organizing Activities】; the gambling items are limited to "areas under the jurisdiction of Chinese law", and spontaneous and scattered gambling abroad is not within the prohibition, reflecting the principle of "territoriality in

it is categorically not to be committed. The object of its protection shifts from the "life and health" of the preceding article to "thought and self-determination", namely the right to independent thinking, the right to strategic self-determination and the right to learn. This is the two sides of the same coin with the philosophical cornerstone of this chapter, the "sovereign individual": do not do to others what you would not have done to yourself; the Author takes self-determination as supreme, and therefore absolutely does not deprive others of their self-determination. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The exception of this article (a serious realistic danger of endangering life) carries the meaning of "necessity" and is opened up only in extreme circumstances.

Article 13-6 further dynamically adjusts the female age standard according to nationality, place of conduct, place of result and the counterpart's nationality, so as to ensure lawfulness and compliance. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Articles 13-2 to 13-4, Article 13-6, Article 99 【Treating Others with an Equal Attitude】, Annex A.07.001 【The Code of Ethics and Etiquette】, the relevant norms for the protection of gender equality. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 13-6 【Adjustment of the Female Age Standard in Accordance with Law】 Notwithstanding the stipulations and declarations of the preceding paragraphs, where one or more of (a) the Author's country of legal nationality; (b) the place where the conduct occurs; (c) the country of residence where the result occurs; or (d) the counterpart's country of nationality is the People's Republic of China, the female age in Article 13-5 shall be not less than fourteen years of age; where the aforesaid (a)–(d) are other countries whose criminal law (code/statute) or the like provides a higher age limit, it shall be adjusted in accordance with their provisions; provided that this does not apply where the Author can no longer satisfy the aforesaid (a) being the People's Republic of China, and the criminal law (code/statute) or the like of the new country of nationality provides a lower age limit and there does not exist (b)–(d) a country whose criminal law (code/statute) or the like provides a higher age limit.

other harm, it shall be stopped unconditionally, and what has not begun shall not begin *< italic > This provision was added under Article 5 of the First Amendment, clarifying the rules for the legal adaptation of the female age standard and dynamically adjusting it in the light of factors such as nationality and place of conduct, so as to avoid compliance risks arising from territorial/nationality differences#*.

occurs / (c) the country of residence where the result occurs / (d) the counterpart's country of nationality is the People's Republic of China, the female age in Article 13-5 shall be not less than fourteen years of age; where the aforesaid (a)–(d) are other countries whose criminal law (code/statute) or the like provides a higher age limit, it shall be adjusted in accordance with their provisions; provided that this does not apply where the Author can no longer satisfy the aforesaid (a) being the People's Republic of China, and the criminal law of the new country of nationality

Its legislative purpose lies in keeping the Author's conduct always in conformity with the criminal mandatory provisions of the relevant legal domain. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article adopts the principle of "choosing the stricter connecting point" — if any one of (a)–(d) is China, the standard of fourteen years of age applies; if a foreign country has a higher standard, the higher standard is followed. The final paragraph sets the "absolute lower limit of twelve years of age" and the rule of "unconditional stopping", which is the absolute baseline of the Author's protection of minors. This article is the setting of a risk boundary (to prevent violation of the criminal law), on the same principle as the "limitation, not authorization" of Articles 12 and 127. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Legislative History】** This article was adjusted under Article 6 of the First Amendment, clarifying the rules for the legal adaptation of the female age standard;

it is a "special and extraordinary means", and its status ought to be a transitional and temporary means; this compliance-first choice should not be taken as a long-term strategy or guideline of action. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The declaration of the absolute baseline of life is the absolutely lowest baseline acceptable in the Author's life; it is a "special and extraordinary means", and its status ought to be a transitional and temporary means; this compliance-first choice should not be taken as a long-term strategy or guideline of action. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article determines the **status** of the "absolute baseline" declared in Article 13: it is a "special and extraordinary means", a "transitional and temporary means", and **may not** be taken as a long-term strategy or guideline of action. This article fits a "braking device" onto the foregoing baseline provisions — the baseline is not the basis for ordinary conduct, but the last resort under extreme circumstances. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Compliance-first-ism" is the expedient by which the Author, in dealing with extreme situations, takes "formal compliance" as the minimum requirement. This article solemnly declares that this expedient is only "transitional and temporary", and that one must return as soon as possible to the normal, lawful and compliant path. Together with Article 8-3 【Red Lines for Venture Capital】 and Article 61 【Negative List】, it is a method of "restraint", preventing the baseline from becoming the norm. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 12, Article 13, Article 15, Article 29, Article 61, Article 79. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 15 【Application of the Declaration of the Absolute Baseline of Life】 When the "absolute baseline of life" is applied, its ROI should be comprehensively weighed, with full consideration of its long-term impact on the Author himself, on the core-team personnel and on the Author's core assets, as well as the greatest possible degree of adverse public response and the scope of impact it may cause, and it should be used only after review through strict procedures; in principle, it should be applied only after at least a compliance-and-legality review (especially a criminal-compliance review); where necessary, consideration should be given to adding a stage of ethical review before application; and in principle, after a corporate legal-person entity has been established, the legal representative (legal representative) of the legal-person entity shall bear the above-mentioned "consequential responsibility" in place of the company and the Author. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** When the "absolute baseline of life" is applied, its ROI should be comprehensively weighed, with full consideration of its long-term impact on the Author himself, on the core-team personnel and on the Author's core assets, as well as the greatest possible degree of adverse public response and the scope of impact it may cause, and it should be used only after review through strict procedures;

and a compliance-and-legality review (with special weight given to criminal compliance) and, where necessary, an ethical review. And after a legal-person entity has been established, in principle the legal representative bears the consequences in its stead. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article restricts the application of the baseline by "procedural constraint", preventing its abuse, and together with Article 14 (restriction of status) forms a double restraint. The phrase "the legal representative bears the consequences in its stead" shows that the Author uses the legal-person system as a tool of "responsibility isolation", consistent with the legal theory of modern company law and referential with Article 21 【The Final Goal, including the corporate legal-person system】. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 13, Article 14, Article 9 【Implementation and Supervision Mechanism】, Article 21 【The Final Goal】, Article 20 【Core-Asset Creation】. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 16 【Declaration of the Relative Baseline of Life】 The Author's relative baseline is as follows: (1) under ordinary circumstances, in principle it suffices that the Author's conduct remain above the degree set out in Appendix One of this Charter (criminal conduct under the criminal law); (2) under relatively special conditions (referring to items 4–15 of Article 91 of this Charter), not violating the criminal law providing for fixed-term imprisonment or more and the relevant laws and regulations applicable at the time the conduct occurs, and in principle ensuring that the Author himself is not subject to imprisonment or to the punishment of fixed-term or life imprisonment 【because the Author regards freedom of thought, freedom of action, personal liberty, freedom of time, freedom of attention and the right of autonomous decision as the Author's supreme rights apart from the right to life, the right to subsistence, the right to health and the right to maintain bodily integrity】; (3) under extremely special circumstances and conditions (referring to items 1–3 of Article 91 of this Charter), the liberty-restricting punishment suffered should follow the "principle of the relative supremacy of five years for a single crime" and the "principle of the absolute supremacy of seven years for a single crime". +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The Author's relative baseline is as follows: (1) under ordinary circumstances, in principle it suffices that the Author's conduct remain above the degree set out in Appendix One of this Charter (criminal conduct under the criminal law); (2) under relatively special conditions, not violating the criminal law providing for fixed-term imprisonment or more and the relevant laws and regulations applicable at the time the conduct occurs, and in principle ensuring that the Author himself is not subject to imprisonment or to the punishment of fixed-term or life imprisonment; (3) under extremely special conditions, the liberty-restricting punishment suffered should follow the "principle of the relative supremacy of five years for a single crime" and the "principle of the absolute supremacy of seven years for a single crime". | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: The preceding articles establish the "absolute baseline"; this article establishes the "relative baseline" — namely the baseline of ordinary conduct manifested to the public in dealings with others. It descends in three tiers: under ordinary circumstances remaining above the crime line; under relatively special circumstances not being subject to imprisonment; under extremely special circumstances observing the "five years – seven years" limit. Together with Article 17 (the status of the relative baseline), this article forms the "relative baseline" system. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article uses the three tiers of "ordinary – relatively special – extremely special" to correspond to the baseline standards under different situations, consistent with the spirit of "relativity" of items (12) and (13) of Article 2 and of Article 16. The two phrases "the relative supremacy of five years for a single crime" and "the absolute supremacy of seven years for a single crime" set the psychological threshold of the liberty-restricting punishment for the Author's life, in order that the criminal liability of his conduct not exceed this limit. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Articles 12 to 15, Article 17, Article 49, Article 79, Annex H.01.001. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 17 【The Status of the Declaration of the Relative Baseline of Life】 The relative baseline of life, also called the Author's general baseline of life, is the baseline of ordinary life conduct manifested to the public (a large unspecified group) in dealings with others (the public legal-cognition baseline and moral baseline). (Note: ⁴ specifically it refers to the "public-occasion situation" in which one must face more than 5 persons (including 5, but not including the Author himself) who are "specific persons" of a different circle from the Author and who are of key significance or potential threat to him; where sensitive criminal-law provisions are involved, it refers in principle to the "public-occasion situation" in which one must face more than 3 persons (including 3, but not including the Author himself) who are "specific persons" of a different circle from the Author and who are of key significance or potential threat to him.) +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The relative baseline of life, also called the Author's general baseline of life, is the baseline of ordinary life conduct manifested to the public (a large unspecified group) in dealings with others (the public legal-cognition baseline and moral baseline). | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article determines the status of the "relative baseline" — it is the general baseline manifested to the public, namely the legal and moral baseline that the public may expect.

This definition shows the wisdom of the Author's life in "governance by scenario": toward the public one observes the general baseline, toward oneself one observes the absolute baseline, adapting to the occasion. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 16, Article 12, Article 47 【Coordination of Ideal-Type Stereotypes】, Article 99 【Treating Others with an Equal Attitude】. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | ## Volume Four — The Chapter on Survival and Core Assets | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 18 【Acquisition of Cash Flow up to the Short-Term Baseline of Funds Necessary for Survival】 In order to ensure the independence of personal decision-making, thought and action, as well as the Author's survival, safety of life and fundamental food and lodging, it should be ensured that the average daily cash flow is greater than or equal to USD 45 (CNY 300, CHF 45, EUR 45, NZD 73), and this average may not be lower than USD 45, while the upper limit is never restricted;

Its legislative purpose lies in safeguarding the Author's survival and independence of decision by quantified cash flow; it is the starting point of this Charter's "financial baseline". | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: Cash flow is the material foundation of freedom (carried on with Articles 20 and 21). The phrase "the upper limit is never restricted" shows that this article is a "floor" rather than a "ceiling", encouraging unlimited enterprise; the setting of the "warning line" shows risk awareness. This article is realized through the cash flow of operations and investment (Article 57).

--- ### Article 19 【The Cash Amount of the Short-Term Baseline of Funds Necessary for Survival】 In order to ensure the independence of personal decision-making, thought and action, as well as the Author's survival, safety of life and fundamental food and lodging, it should be ensured that after starting a business the Author holds on hand a cash reserve of not less than RMB 300,000 or an equivalent or greater amount in foreign currency.

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article establishes the "cash-reserve baseline" — after starting a business, the cash reserve on hand is not less than RMB 300,000 (or an equivalent or greater amount in foreign currency). It is complementary to Article 18 (daily cash flow): one is "flow" and the other is "stock", together forming the twin pillars of survival security. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The reserve fund is established to cope with the unforeseen and to safeguard freedom. The figures of this article were also adjusted by Annex E.01.001 (which organizes them into a cash-reserve range); see the 【Appended Note】 of that document for details. The financial safety of the Author's life proceeds in four ascending layers: "flow (Article 18) + stock (Article 19) + core assets (Article 20) + passive income (Article 21)". |

--- ### Article 20 【The Ultimate Fundamental Purpose of Core-Asset Creation】 The ultimate fundamental purpose of core-asset creation is to enable the asset manager himself, by purchasing others' time, energy, attention and other resources, to attain his own right to life, right to subsistence, right to health, right to maintain bodily integrity, freedom of thought, freedom of action, personal liberty, freedom of time, freedom of attention, as well as the right of autonomous decision, the right to strategic self-determination, and the autonomy to define the key concepts of his outlook on life and worldview; and the ultimate realization of the ideal state of the Author's own life perspective, vision, life dream , ideals, ultimate target identity, life mission, personal values and minimalist way of life.

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article reveals the ultimate purpose of "core-asset creation" — by purchasing others' time, energy and attention, to obtain for oneself the greatest rights and freedom. This is the general logic of "exchanging assets for freedom", the core of this Charter's financial philosophy. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Purchasing others' time, energy and attention" means using the power of institutions, capital and organization to make others' labor serve the Author's goals, thereby liberating his own time and freedom — this is of the same mental method as Article 27 【Concentration on the Most Core Action】 and Article 71 【Positioning and Market-Making】. The object is "the various freedoms and the various rights of autonomy", conforming to the list of rights in Articles 3 and 4. |

funds and bonds, etc.) and dividend rights (passive-income rights and interests), and within the whole cosmos (at least globally), over a lifetime, using ① the corporate legal-person system, ② the

investment bank, global structural investment, international marriage and the formation of a transnational family, and an online, electronic and digital office of a minimum-feasible minimalist way of

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article is a supplementary provision to Article 22 【The Life Condition of Global Sojourning】, expanding the extension of its residential forms. Article 22 establishes the outline of "global sojourning", enumerating homestays, youth hostels, hotels, lodging, leasing, the right of residence, RVs and seven other categories of accommodation together with various travel items; yet as the times evolve and residential technology is renewed day by day, new residential forms such as container houses, mobile prefabricated houses, disaster-relief tents, camping tents, yurts, wooden houses, RV campsites and capsule hotels have emerged one after another, and are especially necessary in times of emergency relief. Hence this article is set to make the matter comprehensive: it first lists the applicable circumstances as the approaches, then lists ten forms as the list, and finally takes the common principles as the constraint. Its legislative purpose is consistent with Article 22 — to make "sojourning" a sustainable and adaptable life form. |

| **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The five circumstances of paragraph 1 are the threshold of application of this article — "temporary, mobile and fluid" (routine sojourning), "emergency refuge" (natural disasters, public-health incidents, emergencies), "disaster resettlement and transitional dwelling", "asset-light, high-mobility, cost-optimization and minimum-feasible minimalism", and "other special sojourning circumstances"; the five are juxtaposed, and the invocation suffices if any one of them is present. The ten forms of paragraph 2 are all the realization of the "asset-light, high-mobility" orientation: container houses, mobile prefabricated houses and disaster-relief tents are dismantlable and relocatable; camping, yurts and wooden houses are close to nature; RV campsites, capsule hotels and home exchange take sharing and mobility as their core. The common principles of paragraph 3 reiterate the "asset-light" red line of Article 8-3 and the "no real-estate purchase" principle of Annex A.04.001; and as for Item 9 "home exchange", it is the exchanging of accommodation by way of civil cooperation such as skill collaboration, service exchange and experience sharing; in accordance with the TERM-REVIEW-001 General Rules for Terminology-Consistency Review, it must not be expressed by words implying labor subordination such as "working in exchange for lodging", and the purpose of de-employment-ization must be firmly upheld here in particular. Corrective Act (4) additionally sets two articles, 【Terminology Correction】 and 【Connection with Existing Provisions】, clarifying the order of its effect and application. |

--- ### Article 22-3 【Waterborne and Other Special Forms of Residence】 〔This article was added by Corrective Act (5) of 25 September 2026; reviewed, countersigned and approved by the Author, and signed into effect.〕 In the following special circumstances, the Author's life of global sojourning may adopt waterborne and other unconventional-carrier residential forms: (1) those for the need of emergency refuge, disaster resettlement and the handling of emergencies; (2) those for the need of unconventional circumstances such as special sojourning experiences and investigation and research. Item 1: Waterborne residential forms such as houseboats and boat lodging; Item 2: Special waterborne carriers such as floating platforms on the water surface and floating waterborne dwellings; Item 3: Temporary waterborne residential forms under special circumstances such as emergency refuge and disaster resettlement. The forms listed in the preceding paragraph are marked only as special forms, used only in particular circumstances, and are not to serve as a standing residential form. Those adopting waterborne and other unconventional-carrier residential forms must conform to the provisions of the laws, administrative regulations and competent authorities on water-area management, navigational safety, public order, fire protection, environmental protection and the like, and must not obstruct the public interest or the lawful rights and interests of others. The adoption of this form is governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of paragraph 3 【Common Principles】 of Article 22-2.

| **【Statute】** In the following special circumstances, the Author's life of global sojourning may adopt waterborne and other unconventional-carrier residential forms: paragraph 1 【Applicable Circumstances】 (1) those for the need of emergency refuge, disaster resettlement and the handling of emergencies; (2) those for the need of unconventional circumstances such as special sojourning experiences and investigation and research; paragraph 2 【Residential Forms】 Item 1 waterborne residential forms such as houseboats and boat lodging; Item 2 special waterborne carriers such as floating platforms on the water surface and floating waterborne dwellings; Item 3 temporary waterborne residential forms under special circumstances such as emergency refuge and disaster resettlement; paragraph 3 【Special-Form Marking】 the forms listed in the preceding paragraph are marked only as special forms, used only in particular circumstances, and are not to serve as a standing residential form; paragraph 4 【Safety and Compliance Restrictions】 those adopting waterborne and other unconventional-carrier residential forms must conform to the provisions of the laws, administrative regulations and competent authorities on water-area management, navigational safety, public order, fire protection, environmental protection and the like, and must not obstruct the public interest or the lawful rights and interests of others; paragraph 5 【Mutatis Mutandis Application】 the adoption of this form is governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of paragraph 3 【Common Principles】 of Article 22-2. (The full text is subject to the authoritative text; this article was added by Corrective Act (5) of 25 September 2026, which has been reviewed, countersigned and approved by the Author, and signed into effect.) | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article is a supplement to Article 22-2, dealing specifically with waterborne and unconventional-carrier dwellings. Houseboats, boat lodging and floating platforms, though also possible forms of "global sojourning", have their dwellings floating on the water and involve the special regulation of water-area management, navigational safety, public order and fire protection, and are entirely different from the land forms; hence they may not be listed together with the ten land forms, but are established in a separate article and characterized separately. Its legislative purpose lies in "recognizing their possibility while limiting their positioning" — not to serve as an ordinary residential form, but only to be marked as a special form and permitted under particular circumstances. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: Paragraph 1 limits the applicable circumstances to two categories, "emergency refuge, disaster resettlement and the handling of emergencies" and "special sojourning experiences and investigation and research", from which its non-normal positioning may be seen. Paragraph 3's "marked only as special forms, used only in particular circumstances, and not to serve as a standing residential form" is the core of this article's characterization, clearly distinct from the land forms of Article 22-2 that may be adopted routinely. The safety and compliance restrictions of paragraph 4 precisely accord with Article 25 【Case-by-Case Deliberation】 and the division of the "express mandatory provisions of law" in G.01.001 — all mandatory provisions concerning water areas, navigation, public order, fire protection and environmental protection must be observed. Paragraph 5's mutatis mutandis application of the common principles makes the purposes of de-employment-ization and asset-lightness run through consistently. Corrective Act (5) additionally sets two articles, 【Connection with Existing Provisions】 and 【Explanation of the Special Form】, to secure the boundaries of its effect and application. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 22, Article 22-2, Article 25, Annex A.04.001, Annex G.01.001;

himself, others may not interfere, nor does he accept any person arranging his daily activities in any way, no exclusion clause is set for this, and any activity must have its time, place and manner

--- ### Article 24 【The Principle of Conditionalist Transactional Essentialism Regarding All Things; the Principle of an Action Model Taking Criminal Law as the Initial Baseline and Maintaining Good-Faith Conduct】 The Author affirms that all matters and all things are constructed on the basis of conditions and are transactional-essentialist activities; attributions that do not reduce to the exchange conditions between the (the) person and (other non-Author) persons are all non-essential causes; cognitive thinking ought to start freely from the attribution of the exchange conditions between the (the) person and (other non-Author) persons, and take the mandatory provisions of the criminal law and its judicial interpretations as the lowest baseline, raising it continuously as the Author's own conditions improve and the persons under his leadership increase, and with a good-faith original intention, perform mutually beneficial conduct.

Baseline and Maintaining Good-Faith Conduct"; the main text explains: all things may be understood transactionally, and all relations are exchanges under conditionalism; the criminal law is taken as the initial baseline of action, while the model of good-faith conduct is maintained.

Its meaning is twofold: first, **transactionalization** — understanding the relations between persons through "conditionalist exchange" (akin to Article 35, "all matters involve equality of personality and exchange based on law and contract"); second, **the good-faith baseline** — action takes the criminal law as the initial baseline while maintaining good faith. This article is the philosophical fountainhead of Article 35 and of the "general principles of civil activities" of Articles 87 to 92. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Transactional essentialism" does not negate affection and righteousness, but is a sober cognitive tool: by viewing relations through the lens of transaction, one is not deluded by false sentiment nor deprived of interests. Yet this article at the same time takes "the criminal law as the initial baseline" and "maintains good-faith conduct", showing that the undertone of transactionalization is "legality + good faith", running in parallel without conflict with the "good faith" of Article 6 and Article 90 【The Principle of Good Faith】. Together with the Author's life "altruism" (Articles 72, 73, 111), this article constitutes two sides of one whole: knowing the reality of transaction and performing the goodness of altruism. |

other principles of this Charter and this principle, implement the approach of case-by-case deliberation and single-occasion analysis, and bear responsibility independently. |

The phrase "in combination with the other principles of this Charter" shows that case-by-case deliberation is not isolated arbitrariness, but a concrete adjudication taking the Charter as a whole as its criterion. Together with Article 26 【Making Decisions Autonomously, Solely in Accordance with Law】, Article 33 【Maximum Self-Determination】 and Article 54 【The Matter of Focus at Each Stage】, this article is a method of "self-determination". | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 1, Article 26, Article 33, Article 74 【Flexibility in Invoking Techniques and Instruments】, Article 119 【Review-ization】. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 26 【The Principle of Making Life Decisions Autonomously, Solely in Accordance with Law】 The Author's life — regardless of in what "state" or "region", under what ruler, and regardless of what any person's evaluations or views of the Author may be — shall, on the premise or at the time that his rights to life, subsistence and lifelong freedom are not under serious realistic threat, accept no arrangement by any non-Author (autonomous will), nor any agency activity for the exercise of the power of choice; as to other persons (whatever labels they may bear), the Author holds a present veto right over any proposal of theirs.

The phrase "regardless of nationality, regardless of evaluation" echoes the cosmic-citizen standpoint of Article 7. It must, however, be read together with Article 125: autonomous decision has as its boundary the non-violation of mandatory legal provisions. |

It is referential with Article 6's "value faithfulness, dare to change" — "dare to change" refers to the courage to correct errors, and "not alter" refers to the firmness of adhering to what is right. The two are not contradictory: change the error that ought to be changed, keep the promise that ought to be kept. | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 6, Article 29, Article 70 【Long-Termist Thinking】, Article 86 【The Intensity of One's Own Motivation】. | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 29 【The Principle of Making No Decision That Is Not for One's Own Sake】 Under the "principle of maximum self-determination and respect for it", the Author, without the counterpart's request, and not for his own sake or involving his own core interests, does not make any decision or determination on behalf of any natural person or legal-person organization other than the Author (including relatives, spouses, romantic partners, paid users and the like). The following circumstances are excepted: (1) where the Author's own right to life and subsistence encounters a (serious) realistic threat, so that a specific decision or determination must immediately be made for a natural person or legal-person organization (real-power holder) other than the Author; (2) where it is necessary for the performance of duties under an identity chosen wholly on the basis of, or purely out of, the Author's own autonomous will (the operator of an international private-fund-manager institution, an internationalized entrepreneur); (3) where it is required by an identity based on personal hobby (e.g., sojourner, freelance writer, translator) to practise, experience or delight the Author's body and mind; (4) where, on the basis of mandatory provisions of the criminal law, a specific decision or determination must immediately be made for a natural person or legal-person organization (real-power holder) other than the Author, failing which the Author would face a realistic, substantive criminal punishment of a term of ten years or more or of life, or a substantive criminal punishment of the nature of deprivation of life; (5) where, on the basis of mandatory provisions of the civil law, the commercial law and their related laws, a specific decision or determination must immediately be made for a natural person or legal-person organization (real-power holder) other than the Author, failing otherwise to avoid a legal (monetary) punishment that is foreseeable at present and in the future and that, after rational analysis combined with the individual case, the Author considers unacceptable; (6) where, on the basis of the express provisions of the contractual terms of a particular Case, and on the basis of the principle of reciprocity or other principles, the Author considers that the immediate making of a specific decision or determination for a natural person or legal-person organization (real-power holder) other than the Author is based on the consensus between the Author and the counterpart (party); (7) where, upon the counterpart's request or for or on the basis of the purpose of operations, finance and investment (long-term development or maintenance of the ultimate essential goal of life ⁵), it is unavoidable to immediately make a specific decision or determination for a natural person or legal-person organization (real-power holder) other than the Author. (Note: ⁵ on the premise of generally not violating, at the moment of the Author's conduct, the criminal law (such as the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, the Swiss Federal Criminal Code, etc.) of the place where the conduct occurs (and, in special circumstances, the place affected by the result of the conduct) — and, in special circumstances, not violating the express provisions of the aforesaid laws (codes) on a punishment of fixed-term imprisonment of ten years or more (excluding this figure) or a punishment equivalent to fixed-term imprisonment of ten years or more (excluding this figure) — as the absolute baseline, and with providing well-being to all, and helping others to achieve the ideal state that the Author is achieving or is about to achieve, out of oneness of mind with the Author's own ideals and values, as the highest ideal state and goal of life, to build for the Author himself an asset system of subject matters providing a monthly inflow of currency of an amount not less than the total living consumption of the party himself for the same period, and by means of engaging others to make it so that for life the Author need not do any work

unless the Author's life or subsistence is facing serious peril, or although not facing serious peril yet with the Author's express oral or written agency authorization, whether on the basis of good

This is the extreme expression of the Author's "self-determination above all", and is a mutual footnote to the "no one has the right to preach" of Article 33.

Its five paths: a self-operated company (automation), stock investment, intellectual-property income, and the use right and income right of re-leasable subject matter.

Items (4) and (5), "high-value subject matter that may be re-leased", require close attention to changes in the laws and policies of the People's Republic of China (such as the policy on real-estate leasing), to be responded to dynamically in accordance with Article 125. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 20, Article 21, Article 57, Articles 100 to 103, Article 125. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | ##

Taking "the person" as the starting point means that all cognition reduces to human nature, the human heart and human relations (akin to Article 45 【The Final Principle of Attribution to the Person】 and Article 56 【The Essence of Gratitude】). | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article is referential with Article 53 【Daily Habits】 (reading, writing, interdisciplinary learning), and is the outline of lifelong learning.

my own inner system of values, together with the essence of all things, first-principles thinking, the essence of human nature and the like, are the ultimate basis and answer; if anyone wishes to tell me, then let them provide me with information and ideas in the form of suggestions, and let the final decision be made by me myself relying on my inner voice and values. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** On this earth, apart from myself, no one (including but not limited to parents, relatives and friends, authorities, experts) has the right to tell me in a preaching manner what I should do;

Its meaning: no one has the right to "preach"; the Author's inner values and essentialist thinking are the ultimate basis; others may provide information only in the form of "suggestions". | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The distinction between "preaching" and "suggesting" is the eye of this article: a suggestion is an exchange on an equal footing, available for reference; preaching is an imposition from on high, to be refused. This article is akin to Article 25 【Case-by-Case Deliberation】, Article 35 【Equal Exchange】 and Article 112 【Prioritizing Praise】, together forming the Author's outlook on dealings of being

voluntary on the Author's part, except for statutory liability, or on the basis of commercial relations or express contractual relations, the Author is not obliged to solve any problem for any person.

express-contractual matters are exceptions.

Together with Article 110 【The Right to Withdraw from Endorsing Moral Views】 and Article 114 【Payment-Based Screening】, it is a method of "self-boundary". | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 84, Article 85, Article 110, Article 113, Article 114. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 35 【The Principle That All Matters Involve Equality of Personality and Exchange Based on Law and Contract】 Whenever talking with anyone, the following principle should be considered, namely the principle that "all matters are equal exchanges". With a negotiating mentality — with a negotiating mentality — where consensus can be reached, continue; where consensus cannot be reached, replace the counterpart (treating the counterpart as the other party to the negotiation) or take the next step; there is no need (no necessity whatever) for any sentimental emotion; every interpersonal activity between human beings, whatever the other party says, does or however they respond, may be treated as an exchange based on currently effective law and contract, under conditionalism, and based on human wishes and interests. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** Whenever talking with anyone, the following principle should be considered, namely the principle that "all matters are equal exchanges".

This is in the same lineage as the "transactional essentialism" of Article 24, and is the Author's method of "governing relations with reason". | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: "Equality of personality" and "exchange of interests" are mentioned together: equality in personality (akin to Articles 44 and 99) and exchange in interests (akin to Articles 35 and 73). "No need for sentimental emotion" is not heartlessness, but not being enslaved by emotion and retaining the freedom of rational choice. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 24, Article 44, Article 73, Article 99. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 36 【Mandatory Requirements Concerning Marriage and the Counterparty to Marriage】 As to marriage and the like, the Author holds an attitude that one may marry or may not marry; but there is one principle, namely that marriage absolutely may not interfere with the way of life described in the preceding article that the Author has chosen, and may not dominate, interfere with, cut off or force the Author to change the above way of life, and may not distribute any property other than the minimum feasible property provided by law and the property to which the Author consents. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** As to marriage and the like, the Author holds an attitude that one may marry or may not marry;

This is the "principle of non-encroachment" of marriage. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: This article, together with Article 37 【Non-Conformity Means Living Alone】, Article 104 【The Essence of Marriage】 and Article 105 【Ranking of Aspirations】, forms the Author's view of marriage: marriage is not indispensable, and must be subordinated to the Author's fundamental freedom.

exists on the earth and can no longer continuously exert influence upon the persons, matters and objects on the earth.

| | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Discussion says: Taking an essentialist perspective, this article defines "death" as the state of "no longer existing and unable to exert influence", laying the cognitive foundation for the subsequent articles (the fear of death, inheritance, bequests). |

| | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: By clarifying the essence of death, one knows that the essence of life lies in "exerting influence and fulfilling wishes" (akin to Article 42); this is the psychological fountainhead of the notions of "long-termism", "inheritance" and the "Financial Ark". |

--- ### Article 42 【The Essence of the Fear of Death】 A person who fears death is in essence fearing that the things he wishes to do are not finished before he no longer exists on the earth and can no

| | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Discussion says: This article dissects the essence of the "fear of death" as the "fear that wishes remain unfulfilled", showing that the Author's life takes "completing tasks and fulfilling wishes" as the method of mastering fear. |

| | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: Carrying on Article 41, this article turns the "fear of death" into "the driving force of action" — the clearer the wishes, the lighter the fear. This is consistent with the spirit of "continuous altruism, continuous action" of Articles 1 to 100. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 41, Article 1-2, Article 62 【The Macro Periods of Life】. | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 43 【Construction of a Worldview from the Perspective of the Cosmic Citizen and the Cosmic-Civilization Community with a Shared Future】 All activities of this world are carried out around "the person"; the persons engaging in the various activities form circle after circle, specifically including political-circle persons (scholars), economic-circle persons (scholars), cultural-circle persons (scholars) and science-and-technology-circle persons (scholars), specifically including: (1) philosophy persons (scholars); (2) economics persons (scholars); (3) law persons (scholars); (4) education persons (scholars) 【persons of the education world】; (5) language-and-literature persons (scholars) 【persons of the language-and-literature world】; (6) history persons (scholars) 【persons of the history world】; (7) science persons (scholars) 【persons of the science world】; (8) engineering persons (scholars) / engineering persons (scholars); (9) agriculture persons (scholars); (10) medicine persons (scholars); (11) military persons (scholars) 【persons of the military world】; (12) business persons (scholars) 【persons of the business-operation world】; (13) art persons (scholars) 【persons of the art world】; (14) interdisciplinary persons (scholars) 【cross-boundary persons】; (15) disciplinary-innovation persons (scholars) 【pioneers of disciplines】 Whatever activities are analyzed, they are all unfolded along the dimension of "the person"; the specific dimensions of analysis are as follows: paragraph 1.

In personality all are equal; in social consideration they differ according to division of labor; and what determines the fundamental difference in life is the "mode of thinking". This is the philosophical basis of the "growth mindset" (Article 109). | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The essence of this article lies in "changing one's mode of thinking means changing one's life" — it endows persons with the hope of change, akin to Article 108 【Bug Iteration】 and Article 109 【Growth Thinking】.

hence the so-called "state" does not in fact exist in the physical world, but is only a subject matter existing in people's ideas and inner emotions; and at any moment it too may be in a state of telling the truth (honesty and good faith) or telling lies (deception); hence, at all times one should (in principle to the greatest extent) be unconditionally self-confident, but should, on the basis of believing the counterpart in principle, conduct a dialectical reverse review and believe any other counterpart cautiously, yet in principle also not be subjectively and completely distrustful, and ultimately take the criminal law (the upper limit), policy and actual circumstances as the criterion. +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** Because the leaders of any organization in any country or region on earth are in essence persons ... so long as he is a person, at any moment he may be in a state of telling the truth (honesty and good faith) or telling lies (deception);

oneself and the specific other persons who cooperate (generally through the media or commercial advertising), behind which is reflected the founder's inner belief and vision, generally an essential logic based on the Author himself and the various groups of people, human (kind) and human nature, human hearts and dreams (erecting a barrier of information asymmetry between high-level and grassroots persons, the abstract and the concrete, the macro and the micro), so as to achieve the interests of specific persons; in essence any institution is composed of natural persons, and at most is the (essential, macro) consensus of the inner ideas of the persons at the top of the institution.

Author's own country, or the ideological, conceptual and value system of human consensus) and passes through the essence of economics (the exchange of human wishes, the exchange of value) — law (political policy, international and national law) — education (the instrument for shaping the ideas of the political-circle strata) — linguistics and literature (the instrument of human education) — history (the record of all key events of mankind and the summary of trends) — science (the ideas of the natural sciences of mankind: physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy, geography, etc.) — engineering (the compilation of all the tangible techniques, methods and processes of mankind) — agriculture (the ideas and techniques relating to all the cultivation of plants and the rearing of animals by mankind) — medicine (all the research disciplines of mankind on the principles and branches of bodily health, disease, drugs, poisoning, etc.) — military affairs (the study of all the violent apparatuses of mankind and their mechanisms) — management and business (the study of all the persons engaged in the production and operation activities of enterprises and their mechanisms) —

--- ### Article 55 【The Population-Selection Model for Entrepreneurship】 Starting from the essential logic of the highest disciplinary theme of the one thing one wishes to do, one determines the What, Why, How and How much cost; proceeding from the common (all are persons, and activities and wishes all follow the essential commonalities of human nature) to the particular (each person's different details and phenomena), and from the macro into the micro, one first provides solutions to the urgent, difficult, dangerous and heavy specific problems of the elite of the served (positioning at the

difficult, dangerous and heavy problems of the elite, and afterwards the general needs of the masses.

where the right to life and subsistence is under serious threat, it may come from temporary labor-service income based on point-to-point labor services and remunerated according to the results of the work; the Author does not accept wage-type income remunerated by the hours of labor, except in any of the following circumstances: where the Author's subsistence or life is under an extreme realistic threat, and failure to take timely measures could cause the loss of the Author's life or imminent death, and within a foreseeable length of time there is no other income channel or disposable income; where the Author's subsistence or life is under an extreme realistic threat, and failure to take timely measures could cause the Author's body organs, limbs or other key personal subject matters to suffer lifelong irreversible damage, and within a foreseeable length of time there is no other income channel or disposable income; where the institution paying the wage-type income remunerated by the hours of labor (generally a corporate legal-person entity) enables the Author to learn a specific equity structure, business model or key core commercial information, conducive to the Author's subsequent engagement in independent entrepreneurial and investment activities. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The cash flow sustaining the Author's life comes from the Author's independent entrepreneurship initiated personally on the basis of the supply-and-demand relations of the market population (e.g., a small-micro enterprise legal person), team entrepreneurship (forming a team to start a business), dividends from legal-person entities, personal portfolio investment, and the property income of IPR (intellectual property rights);

This article is in the same lineage as Article 10 【Mission】, Article 58 【The Essence of Wages】 and Article 63 【The Stages of the Financial Ark】 — the Author's life takes "creating assets that can run automatically" as its occupation, not selling time for a living. Wherever historical expressions such as "wages" and "working for others" are involved, they are transcribed verbatim from the original to make the contrast clear, and fall within the comparison-table

| **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: By clarifying the essence of wages, one knows that the Author's way out lies in "changing from the purchased to the purchaser" (Article 20 【Core-Asset Creation】). This article, together with Articles 57 and 10, forms the Author's "self-awareness of economic identity".

The principle is "good faith"; the mechanism is "mastering bad faith"; the two assist each other: toward the good-faith party, good faith; toward the bad-faith party, law (within lawful limits). | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 6, Articles 68-3 to 68-6, Article 90 【The Principle of Good Faith】, the Third Amendment (Annex A.03.001). | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 68-3 【Tiered Response Mechanism Based on the Creditor's Communication Attitude】 However, in order to maintain the good faith and harmony of commercial dealings and to optimize transaction costs, a tiered response mechanism is hereby established according to the creditor's communication attitude: the friendly-and-collaborative tier: for a creditor who consistently upholds good faith and rational communication, repayment should be arranged with priority when the debt falls due, or convenience in performance should be granted on equal conditions, so as to nourish and consolidate a benignly interactive commercial ecology; the malicious-presumption tier: for one who, without factual basis, presumes and presses for the debt by maliciously goading, publicly insulting or defaming personality, the principle of the "effect of expected realization" established in Article 68-4 of this Charter applies. *#This provision was added under Article 2, paragraph 2 of the Third Amendment, distinguishing the creditor's attitude through tiered response, balancing good-faith collaboration and risk prevention and control, and reducing the cost of commercial communication#. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** However, in order to maintain the good faith and harmony of commercial dealings and to optimize transaction costs, a tiered response mechanism is hereby established according to the creditor's communication attitude: **the friendly-and-collaborative tier** — for a creditor who consistently upholds good faith and rational communication, repayment should be arranged with priority when the debt falls due, or convenience in performance should be granted on equal conditions, so as to nourish and consolidate a benignly interactive commercial ecology;

toward the malicious one, the "effect of expected realization" is invoked.

It must be read together with the "proviso" of Article 68-4, strictly observing statutory priority rights and contractual stipulations. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Article 68-2, Article 68-4, Article 68-5, Article 68-6. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --- ### Article 68-4 【Application of the Principle of the Effect of Expected Realization】 (a) When the creditor exhibits the conduct of the "malicious-presumption tier" described in Article 68-3(2) of this Charter, the Author will invoke the principle of the "effect of expected realization" as a systematic response. (b) Core purport: the creditor's malicious expectation that "the Author intends to default" will, in the way the creditor least wishes to see, be realized at the level of rules — that is, the Author will, strictly within the maximum limit permitted by law, exercise his right as a debtor to choose the order of performance, and adjust the repayment order of that creditor's debt to the last position. (c) Proviso clauses: the application of this principle must strictly observe the following boundaries that may not be crossed: it must not violate the mandatory provisions of law on the order of repayment of debts with statutory priority such as security interests; it must not violate the stipulations in an already concluded contract on a clear repayment deadline so as to constitute a statutory or contractual breach. What this principle adjusts is only the order and time of repayment, and absolutely not the responsibility and obligation of repayment. *#This provision was added under Article 2, paragraph 3 of the

The evidence of the creditor's conduct of "malicious presumption" must be completely preserved through lawful forms such as audio recording, screenshots and documents. This procedure is not for provocation, but to ensure that the Author's response stands on an indisputable foundation of facts and rules, in preparation for verification in any form of dispute. *#This provision was added under Article 2, paragraph 4 of the Third Amendment, emphasizing procedural justice and, through the preservation of lawful evidence, avoiding disputes and connecting with the requirements of the "supervision mechanism" of Article 9 of this Charter#. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The premise for applying the principle of Article 68-4 lies in the clarity of the facts and the justice of the procedure.

At the beginning of, or at the inception of, a debt relationship, the Author may, in an appropriate manner that does not constitute a threat, declare or notify the other party of the response principles contained in Articles 68-3 to 68-5 of this Charter, affirming that "the attitude of communication is an important variable in the efficiency of repayment", in order to guide benign interaction from the source and reduce unnecessary friction and internal depletion. *#This provision was added under Article 2, paragraph 5 of the Third Amendment, clarifying the rules through prior notification, guiding benign communication from the source, and conforming to the "long-termist" thinking of this Charter (Article 7)#. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The Author's commercial principles are open and honorable.

resources (a "cake-dividing game"): by market-making one occupies a certain amount of stock resources, and then, by team-ization and reasonably distributing these resources to one's followers, "altruism" brings "success"; yet the whole process requires fairly rational and agile action over about five years, and the continuous maintenance of one's position.

(The mechanism by which all punishments take effect is based on a person's fear of possibly losing an existing subject matter of his own — the sense of gain and loss.) The existing corresponding subject matters of the sense of gain and loss are now summarized and set out as follows: (1) acting in compliance with a certain stipulation on the basis of a punitive measure infringing upon the right to life; (2) ... on the basis of a punitive measure infringing upon the right of the person ... (3) ... on the basis of a punitive measure infringing upon freedom ... (4) ... on the basis of a punitive measure infringing upon one's own right to strategic self-determination ... (5) ... on the basis of a punitive measure infringing upon existing property (currency or assets) or property rights (ownership, usufructuary rights, intellectual property rights) ...

--- ### Article 92 【General Principle Five of Civil Activities】 The green principle — in engaging in civil activities, a civil subject should be conducive to conserving resources and protecting the ecological environment; this principle both inherits the traditional cultural idea of harmony among heaven, earth and humanity and of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, and embodies a new development philosophy, and is conducive to easing the contradiction between our country's ever-growing population and its resources and ecology.

--- ### Article 93 【The Meaning of Patriotism and Exemptions】 The essence of the state is purely a concept in the human brain, and is in essence an aggregate of specific persons (groups) based on interests; the bare essence of patriotism is the ideological "identification of interests" and "binding of interests", as well as identity identification on the basis of the above identification; hence it (the ideas of "patriotism" and "the state") may be used as an instrumental means of "identification of interests" and "binding of interests". But the use of "patriotism" may or must be exempted in the following circumstances: (1) where, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's right to life and right to subsistence are (unlawfully) restricted for a long period (exceeding 7 or 20 years) or are under a realistic threat from another subject; (2) where, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's right to bodily integrity, physical and mental health, etc., are under a realistic threat from another person or other subject; (3) where, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's right to freedom, right to autonomous strategic decision, freedom of thought and action, etc., are under a realistic threat from another person or other subject; (4) where, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's right to choose a free way of life, the right to choose a place of sojourn, or the right to choose an occupation or career are under a realistic threat; (5) where, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's core rights and interests as set out in items 1–10 of Article 3 of this Charter are under a realistic and substantive threat from another person or other subject (including but not limited to the state subjects of the country of current residence or the so-called motherland such as the governing and administrative bodies), by any means including but not limited to the military, violence, or imprisonment under law; (6) other circumstances in which, because of the practice of the idea of patriotism, the individual's core interests may suffer loss.

| **【Statute】** The essential logic of maximizing altruism is, through a certain design of institutions and mechanism processes, to enable all participating parties (every person) to have a sense of

--- ### Article 112 【The Principle of Prioritizing Praise of Others on the Premise of Inner Objective Dialectical Neutralism】 The Author upholds the principle of prioritizing praise of external persons on the premise of inner objective dialectical neutralism; that is, in most cases, there is no need to point out others' errors or to argue with persons of other circles about differences of values; one merely retains one's own opinion while maintaining priority of external praise, except in any of the following circumstances: (1) where the counterpart is a paying client consulting the Author for a fee on a specific matter, and the specific matter here is the same as the matter requiring the pointing out of another's error or the difference of values; (2) where not pointing out the said "other person's" error or the matter of difference of values may cause the Author's core interests to suffer loss, including but not limited to the following matters: paragraph 1. the counterpart is the Author's core shareholder, partner or senior manager; paragraph 2. the counterpart is the Author's core backbone member, civil and commercial partner, civil and commercial cooperator, engaged personnel, civil and commercial partner, civil and commercial cooperator, engaged personnel; #This provision balances "neutral dialectics" and "protection of interests", both maintaining interpersonal harmony and guarding against harm to core interests, connecting with the principle of "all matters are equal exchanges" (Article 35) of this Charter#.

--- ### Article 113 【The Principle of Acting from a Willing Heart】 In any action of the Author at any moment, so long as it is performed, the Author should ensure that the action is based on the willingness of the subjective (inner conceptual) person. Where not subjectively willing, or unless adjusted to a willing state, the Author in principle undertakes no action. The following circumstances are excepted: (1) where the Author's own right to life and subsistence encounter a substantive realistic threat, so that special action must immediately be taken; (2) where the Author's own personal liberty, freedom of psychological state, freedom of thought and right of autonomous decision encounter a substantive realistic threat, so that special action must immediately be taken; (3) where based on the strict-stipulation undertaking of a genuine, wholly autonomously decided, non-subconscious oral, written or data-teletransmitted agreement. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** In any action of the Author at any moment, so long as it is performed, the Author should ensure that the action is based on the willingness of the subjective (inner conceptual) person.

--- ### Article 114 【The Principle of Payment-Based Screening】 When another person seeks help from the Author or asks the Author to solve a problem, the Author should in principle require the other to pay; the subsequent effects are as follows: (1) screening out those who acknowledge by payment, and serving them in a concentrated way, is conducive to safeguarding the Author from the threat of unnecessary trouble (including but not limited to threats to person, life and health); (2) it is conducive to finding people of the same frequency; (3) it is conducive to coordinating the allocation of the Author's energy, time, etc.; (4) it is conducive to ensuring that "non-payers obtain no service from the Author, gradually raising the monetary value of the Author's intangible resources such as time, energy and attention"; (5) it is conducive to eliminating "freeloaders", "barnacle-type consumers" and the like, screening high-quality clients, helping to raise the efficiency of making money in one's life, and at the same time optimizing and transforming the persons close to oneself with whom one closely deals, indirectly optimizing the quality of the Author's life. #This provision optimizes resource allocation through "payment-based screening", conforming to the principles of "concentrating on the most core action" (Article 27) and "positioning clients toward high-quality groups" (Article 85) of this Charter, and raising the input–output ratio of time and energy#.

life that the average person (ordinary person) cannot live in an entire lifetime, he must act somewhat differently from the average person (the majority); at the same time he must find his ideal-type model, first studying the model's mode of thinking and then studying the model's mode of conduct, ultimately making his own mode of thinking, mode of action, business model and way of life become what

own ability to pay (the review of the client's ability to pay should be relaxed at the outset of the venture, and the standard and requirements continuously raised as the scale of the venture company's own cash flow increases); (4) the client's own willingness to pay; (5) the intensity of the client's own motivation to change the status quo and the intensity of action; #This provision clarifies the core dimensions of client screening, balancing "flexibility in the initial stage of a venture" and "quality control in the later stage", connecting with the "principle of providing

--- ### Article 119 【The Principle of Regular Review (Review-ization)】 The Author's summarization of life experience follows the rule that every experience must be reviewed, thought over and summarized down to the first-principles essence (the essence of human nature, human desires, interests & the exchange of wishes), and thereafter one thinks from the first-principles essence in a movement from the intangible to the tangible and from the macro to the micro. #This provision strengthens the depth requirement of "review", connecting with "case-by-case deliberation" (Article 25) and "data-oriented thinking" (Article 76) of this Charter, ensuring that experience is converted into reusable strategic capability#.

--- ### Article 120 【Summary of Currency-Earning Models】 The common currency-earning models are summarized as follows: (1) the governmental model — positioning-ism — dividing the cake (the distribution of interests / profits), tasks + skimming and taxing under various names + collecting money (fines / penalties) for unlawful conduct; (2) the financial model (investment model / capital model) — market-making-ism — taking currency, marketable securities, etc. as the main instruments and obtaining returns by the mode of the leverage of borrowing (the future monetary return) + the present interest; (3) the typical company-and-enterprise models: paragraph 1. the "quasi-governmental-rule-ism" positioning-and-market-making model project: item 1 conducting skimming and profit-sharing with other platform participants through actions such as building a platform, setting platform rules and altruistically giving platform participants a part of the profits first (following the principle of governmental "taxation"); item 2 conducting non-compliance-penalty revenue with other platform participants through actions such as building a platform and setting platform rules (following the principle of governmental "taxation"); paragraph 2. the cash-flow-operation model project: item 1 the partner model project (e.g., the all-staff shareholding plan for high-quality personnel, the strategic-cooperation and personnel-cooperation plan of a legal-person entity, etc.); item 2 the membership and club model project (e.g., private board meetings, closed-door seminar clubs, etc.); item 3 the franchise model project; item 4 the model project of agency (fees), of handling commission / service fees collected in advance in a centralized manner; item 5 the model project of intermediary and information-asymmetry bridging commission; paragraph 3. the training-type and 【information】 consulting-type fee-collection model project (a model of zero marginal cost after pure-profit documentary standardization); paragraph 4. the relatively larger-scale (one-to-many service) capital-gain (price-difference) model project (the most ordinary, popular and most widely used model); (4) the mass operational model project — the mode of thought and action of the self-employed: paragraph 1. the smaller-scale (one-to-one service) capital-gain (price-difference) model (the most ordinary, popular and most widely used model); (5) the mode of thought and action of purely selling time, physical strength and energy: paragraph 1. the working-for-others model (company member, civil and commercial partner, civil and commercial cooperator, engaged personnel, civil and commercial partner, civil and commercial cooperator, engaged-personnel model / engaged-personnel model); #This provision systematically sorts out the currency-earning models, connecting with "core-asset creation" (Article 20) and "the direction of life advancement" (Article 8) of this Charter, and providing a reference for profitability choices at different stages#.

To the Author, a self-interested logic of conduct is altruism toward others; for others are also persons (what the legal provisions omit by default is also the three words "any person") (or a threefold meaning): (1) taking the single individual 【and their real needs】 as the foundation vs. taking (all) humanity 【and its consensual needs】 as the foundation; (2) taking the idealized person of theory as the foundation vs. taking the fleshy, human-natured person as the foundation; (3) taking the person's concrete manifested needs as the foundation vs. taking the abstract common needs summarized in theory as the foundation. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** This Charter of Life Action takes effect from 13 August 2022. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Commentary】** The Discussion says: This article expressly provides the effective date of the Charter — 13 August 2022.

(2) extreme personalities and their survival philosophy are marginalized and rendered harmless, unable to form an impact on the mainstream values of civilization; #This provision was added under Corrective Act (3), expanding the value dimension of the Charter, extending from "individual life planning" to "the identification of civilizational values", and conforming to the supreme program of this Charter to "promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind" (Article 1-2)#. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 【Commentary】 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Statute】** The core definition of civilizational success is the elimination of the shadow of human nature (such as the extremely egoistic personality), specifically including: (1) the majority can stably enjoy an abundant life based on trust, cooperation and love;

philosophy: through legislation and the guidance of public opinion, defining the unlawfulness and harm of extreme belief; (2) perfecting systemic constraints and compressing the "survival" space of extreme conduct: establishing a cross-departmental monitoring mechanism to intervene promptly in unlawful activities induced by extreme belief; (3) empowering individual choice and expanding the "support" space of positive belief: providing resource support for positive belief practice (such as funds, venues and publicity channels); #This provision was added under Corrective Act (3),

--- ### Article 143A 【Personal Decision Boundaries and Matters of Proactive Help】 〔This article was added by the Fifth Corrective Act of the Charter of Life Action (the Supplementary Amendment Concerning Matters Related to the Boundary of Helping Others) on 20 October 2025.〕 This provision is formulated on the basis of Article 30 【The Principle That No One Other Than the Author May Make Any Decision for the Author】, Article 33 【The First Principle of Personal Values】 and the principle of a "sustained altruistic mindset" in Article 1-2 【Supreme Programmatic Ideal】; it clarifies the boundary of intervention in personal decisions and the applicable circumstances of proactive help, both upholding the core standpoint of "reducing external interference and making decisions autonomously" and practicing the action logic of "altruism that is controllable", ensuring complete congruence with the spirit of the provisions of the original Charter. ㈠ The scope of matters in which the individual does not intervene in decisions. As to the following three categories of matters, the Author in principle does not actively intervene and does not bear decision-making responsibility, unless the "applicable circumstances of proactive help" of this provision are met, and this boundary may not be changed by any external interference contrary to the Author's will: ⑴ Broadly unrelated matters: as to affairs of which the Author is unaware, in which he has not participated, and to which there is no legal connection (including a relation of rights and obligations) or factual connection (including an involvement of interests or of conduct), he does not actively intervene in decisions. This provision aims to implement the original Charter's original intent of "reducing to the minimum necessary limit the influence of the outside world upon the course of life" (scattered through Articles 1 and 25), avoiding unrelated affairs occupying core energy. ⑵ Matters without a statutory mandatory duty of assistance: where, although the Author is aware of or has participated in the matter, there is no duty of assistance or help of an "ought to" or "must" nature under currently effective law (including criminal law, civil law, administrative law and the corresponding judicial interpretations), and the Author has expressly stated that he is unwilling to provide help, he does not passively bear decision-making or action responsibility. This provision strictly observes the original Charter's principle of "taking the mandatory provisions of the criminal law and its judicial interpretations as the lowest baseline" (scattered through Articles 1 and 64), refusing the imposition of obligations without legal basis. ⑶ Matters without a dual legal and moral duty: where there is neither a legal mandatory requirement of assistance, nor a clear constraint of social morality (excluding subjectively conjectured moral expectations) or a moral duty agreed in the original Charter, and the Author is expressly unwilling to help, he does not forcefully intervene in decisions. This provision conforms to the standpoint of Article 33 【The First Principle of Personal Values】 of the original Charter that "apart from the Author, no one has the right to tell the Author in a preaching manner what he should do", safeguarding decision-making autonomy from unnecessary moral kidnapping. ㈡ The applicable circumstances of proactive help. As to the matters listed in items 2 and 3 of paragraph 1 of this article, if all of the following conditions are simultaneously satisfied, the Author may proactively provide help; if only some are satisfied, the helping conduct may not be initiated. The specific circumstances are as follows: ⑴ Limitation of the object of help: the object of help must be groups such as girls, women, children, the sick and the frail who genuinely need help, and must, upon objective judgment (in the light of their actual situation and ability to obtain resources), belong to the "good-faith non-advantaged groups" — namely, a group that has no provocative conduct and no intent to seek improper benefits through help (such as extra demands for property or unreasonable assertions of rights), while genuinely having a real need for help (such as being unable to independently resolve problems related to survival or health), ensuring that the helping conduct conforms to the core orientation of the original Charter's "sustained altruistic mindset". ⑵ The manner of request and exceptions: ① Ordinary circumstances: the "good-faith non-advantaged group" — the person himself, or his relatives, guardians and other interested parties — must make the request for help in a manner of "no provocative conduct and polite expression", and there must be no threatening, coercive, insulting or disrespectful words or conduct; this requirement echoes the principle of "taking respect as the basis of communication" in Article 118 【The Meaning of Equal Respect for Others】 of the original Charter; ② Exceptional circumstances: if, owing to an emergency such as a sudden illness (e.g., a heart attack) or accidental injury (e.g., injury in a traffic accident), a person of the "good-faith non-advantaged group" is unable to autonomously make a declaration of intent (e.g., coma, loss of speech capacity), then no proactive request by the person himself or an interested party is required, and the Author may, on the basis of objective judgment, initiate necessary help; this exception continues the action logic of the original Charter's "flexible adaptation under extreme circumstances" (scattered through Articles 1 and 64), balancing altruism and realistic reasonableness. ⑶ The boundary of the content of help: the helping conduct must simultaneously satisfy three requirements: ① Lawfulness: it must not violate currently effective mandatory provisions of law (e.g., it must not assist in evading legal liability); ② Protection of interests: it must not cause damage to the Author's core interests (including the right to life, the right to personal liberty, the right to autonomous strategic decision, and major property rights and interests); ③ Measure: it must strictly follow the action logic of the original Charter's "minimum feasible contribution" (scattered through Articles 1 and 8), investing only necessary time, energy or resources, and avoiding, through excessive help, impairing the advancement of one's own life goals (such as global sojourning and the founding of a private fund).

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: This article is the general outline of the "boundary of helping others". Its difficulty in legislation lies in two meanings that are opposed yet must run in parallel: one meaning is "autonomy", namely the "reducing to the minimum necessary limit the influence of the outside world upon the course of life" established in Article 1 of the Main Charter, the "no one other than the Author may make any decision for the Author" established in Article 30, and the "first principle of personal values" established in Article 33; the other meaning is "altruism", namely the "sustained altruistic mindset" established in Article 1-2. Were there only autonomy, it would degenerate into self-guarding; were there only altruism, it would lose all measure. The establishment of this article is precisely to draw the boundary for these two meanings: with the "boundary of non-intervention" guarding autonomy, and with "the circumstances of help" extending altruism. Hence this article self-declares its basis in three matters (Articles 30 and 33 and Article 1-2), and takes "both upholding ... and practicing ..." as its legislative method — this is no empty rhetoric. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The three categories of paragraph 1 follow a logical order from the outside inward: broadly unrelated matters take "connection" as the boundary (no legal connection, no factual connection); matters without a statutory mandatory duty of assistance take "legal duty" as the boundary (no duty of assistance of an "ought to" or "must" nature, and the Author having expressly stated his unwillingness to provide help); matters without a dual legal and moral duty take the "two-tier test of law and morality" as the boundary (whether mandatory legal requirements, or clear constraints of social morality, or moral duties agreed in the Charter). All three take "express statement of unwillingness to help" as their common pre-requisite, and thus it is not an implied abandonment but an express statement followed by adherence. These three "non-interventions" are not negative shirking, but the implementation of the three meanings of "avoiding unrelated affairs occupying core energy", "refusing the imposition of obligations without legal basis" and "safeguarding decision-making autonomy from unnecessary moral kidnapping". | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | The three conditions of paragraph 2 follow the logic of "initiation only when all are complete": condition one is "the person" (must belong to a good-faith non-advantaged group, with no provocation and no intent to seek improper benefits through help, while genuinely having a real need for help); condition two is "the request" (must be made in a manner of no provocation and polite expression; in emergency circumstances an exception is set, permitting the initiation of necessary help upon objective judgment); condition three is "the boundary" (lawfulness, protection of interests and measure must all be satisfied). The words "if all of the following conditions are simultaneously satisfied, the Author may proactively provide help; if only some are satisfied, the helping conduct may not be initiated" are an express provision of "cumulative conditions", and thus the absence of any one makes it impermissible. Among them, the one condition of "measure" takes "minimum feasible contribution" as the criterion, making clear that the help must "invest only necessary time, energy or resources", and must not, through excessive help, obstruct the advancement of one's own life goals (such as global sojourning and the founding of a private fund). This is the correct understanding of "altruism that is controllable": only altruism that does not damage one's own foundation is sustainable altruism. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Question】** The help of paragraph 2 is expressly stated to be "as to the matters listed in items 2 and 3 of paragraph 1 of this article", and does not extend to item 1 "broadly unrelated matters"; what is the meaning of this? **【Answer】** This is the key boundary of this article. As to the "broadly unrelated matters" of item 1, the Author is neither aware of nor has participated in them, and there is no legal or factual connection; hence, even if a good-faith non-advantaged group makes a request, it does not fall within the scope of the help of this article — otherwise the boundary of "unrelated" would be entirely abolished, contrary to the purport of "reducing to the minimum necessary limit the influence of the outside world". Hence the help of this article takes "being aware of or having participated in" as its premise; this is the point to which those interpreting this article should first attend. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Cross-ref】** Articles 1, 1-2, 8, 25, 30, 33, 64 and 118 of the Main Charter;

| **【Commentary】** The Commentary says: The establishment of this article has three purposes. First, "guarding autonomy": the Main Charter takes the absolute freedom and development of the sovereign individual as its philosophical cornerstone; any participation in an organization may introduce an external will, temporality and evaluation, and thus whatever is neither self-established nor voluntarily joined is enough to shake the Author's autonomy. Second, "consistency of structure": Article 94 of the Main Charter prohibits enlisting and going to war, Article 95 prohibits joining political parties, and Article 96 establishes not taking a political stance; these three are "non-participation in specific domains", whereas this article is "the access rule for participation in all organizations", and is thus the general outline of the preceding three. Third, "preventing circumvention": in establishing any principle, the greatest concern is the way of evasion; under names such as "taking a post", "attaching", "secondment" and "external engagement", one may, under the name of "unwillingness to join", reap the substance of "actual subordination". This article takes "participation" rather than "joining" as its object, and hence any substantive participation, whatever its name, falls within its scope. The three together make this article not merely a newly added provision but in truth the "organizational gate" of the whole system. | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | **【Discussion】** The Discussion says: The structure of this article is "binary + catch-all exclusion + authorizing detailed rules", in clear layers. (1) The "self-established organization" of paragraph 1 has two requirements: first, "personally founded by the Author"; second, "whose members (personnel) are selected and determined personally by the Author". Hence the criterion of identification lies not in the name of the organization but in "whence the personnel come" — wherever the personnel do not come from the Author, it does not satisfy paragraph 1. Annex A.08.001 additionally sets the identification standard that "selection by delegation, upon the Author's review, countersignature and approval, is deemed personal selection", which is an extension of "personally": where another is delegated to select on one's behalf and the Author reviews, countersigns and approves, it is deemed personal selection; this is a feasible adaptation, yet still takes the Author's review and approval as its invariable core. (2) The "organization voluntarily joined" of paragraph 2 also has two requirements: first, "fully endorsing the organization's purposes and core members", the word "fully" being essential, and any reservation failing to satisfy it; second, "on the basis of a specific, clear purpose", the four characters "specific, clear" being essential, and any vague purpose failing to satisfy it. Only when the two are combined is it "voluntary". (3) Paragraph 3 is the "catch-all exclusion": "apart from the two circumstances listed in the preceding two paragraphs, the Author does not participate in any organization" is the first exclusion; "in particular, he does not accept participation in rigid institutional organizations including but not limited to the civil service" is the second, enumerative exclusion; "whatever benefits, status or treatment may attach" is the third, value-based exclusion. With the three superimposed, the path of "tempting by benefit" is also blocked — whatever uses status, treatment or position as bait, this article rejects in advance. (4) Paragraph 4 is the "authorization": the detailed circumstances, identification standards, exceptions and implementation of this article are all delegated to Annex A.08.001, the Detailed Implementing Rules of the Binary Iron Rule of Organizational Participation. Provisions value brevity, detailed rules value fullness; this article establishes its outline briefly and completes its items through Annex A.08.001 — this is precisely the system's division whereby "the Main Charter is the fundamental principle, and the annexes are the implementing detailed rules of specific domains". | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

| **【Question】** If the Author, out of the urgent need to make a living, must take a post in an organization that is neither self-established nor voluntarily joined, may it be said to conform to this article? **【Answer】** It may not. Apart from paragraphs (1) and (2) of this article, there is no third path; hence "the urgent need to make a living" is not a ground for accommodation. When pressed by livelihood, one should follow the income-generating paths established in Articles 8 and 8-2 of the Main Charter (consulting, planning, intermediary, agency, leasing, finance, etc.) and their "minimum feasible essentialist steps", or examine, under paragraph 2's "specific, clear purpose", whether it is truly a voluntary joining — one may not break the iron rule on the spur of the moment. |

| **【Question】** What is the relationship between this article and the "necessary exceptions" of Article 96-2? **【Answer】** They operate at different levels and cannot be invoked for one another. What Article 96-2 resolves is the exemption of the "principle of not taking a political stance" in the circumstances of "key and essential work appointment and performance of duties", its object being "the expression of a political stance"; what this article governs is "participation in an organization" itself, its object being "whether to participate or not". Hence, even with the exception of Article 96-2, one may not thereby participate in an organization excluded by this article; conversely, whenever participation satisfies the binary rule of this article, the expression of political stance is still bound by Articles 95 and 96 and their exceptions. Only when each keeps to its own domain is there no disorder. |

--- ### Article 144B 【Emergency Response Mechanism for Belief Crises】 When a large-scale belief crisis arises (such as the spread of extreme belief), the emergency response mechanism is activated: (1) establishing an emergency team: composed of the government, social organizations and experts, coordinating the response work; (2) information disclosure: promptly releasing to the public the progress of the crisis and the response measures, avoiding the spread of rumors; (3) concentrated intervention: mobilizing resources to carry out concentrated education and guidance for the groups affected by extreme belief.
