A Glimpse of the New Global Lifestyle in Post-epidemic Era
In “The Art of Life”, Lin Yutang wrote that human beings are the only animals hard working actively. We face the feast of life, but we do not know how much our appetite is. The most difficult thing for everyone to understand is the contradiction between his concepts of work; the work he wants to do and the work that the society needs him to do.
Everything in the world is at leisure, only human beings work to live. Because we have to work, we are becoming more and more complicated in the progression of civilization. We are controlled by all kinds of obligations, responsibilities, fears, obstacles and ambitions at anytime and anywhere. These are not born, but produced by human society.
Many of us believe that this mortal world is the only paradise. Enjoying leisure and life are not only the cognition of respecting life, but also a good remedy for regulating urban diseases. However, the real life in front of us is full of responsibilities and obligations, pressure and fear. How can we balance reality and dreams, and live an ideal life with poetry and far land? What Angela would recommend to you today is Business + Investment + Leisure, the long-term life investment leisure balanced lifestyle. This is a global trend, a Bleisure lifestyle. It is a combination of business activities and personal leisure, a Business + Leisure short-term life and leisure balance. In my opinion, the most ideal way to live is “while picking asters beneath the Eastern fence, gazing upon the world leisurely”.
We are living in the era of mass consumption. People are increasingly dependent on online shopping. Luxury goods that were out of reach in the past are increasingly entering the families of ordinary people. Similarly, the overseas life that had nothing to do with me in the past has become increasingly common. The epidemic has brought the world to a standstill, but the internet and social media have always allowed us to share our lives around the world. The evolution of human history is originally a history of population movement and the penetration of different civilizations. After the outbreak, there is an urgent need to popularize scientific global identity and immigration knowledge, so that we can better balance work, investment and lifestyle.
I recently read an interesting book called “Half-Hour World History Comics” and I would like to share it with you. Let’s understand the five thousand years of world history through comic interpretation, and review the essence of history! When a few historical terms could be randomly uttered at the next dinner appointment, you will definitely impress everyone at the table.
Europe is an important area in the history of human civilization. In order to facilitate our memory, we can focus on the following three classic movies.
Blockbuster 1: Greece & Rome
Reference movie: The 300 Spartans
Greece is the birthplace of European civilization. Great philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, etc. were born here. Crete is the birthplace of Greek civilization, which is also the source of opening the world view of business + investment + leisure. Current immigration index ***** (see below for details)
After the changes of Rome Empire, with the decline of the divided Western Roman Empire, it gradually evolved into the France, Italy and Germany in modern Europe. However, it is not a popular country for immigrants. Current immigration index: 0
Blockbuster 2: The Dark Ages
Reference film: Kingdom of Heaven
The so-called Middle Ages were the millennium from the demise of the Western Roman Empire to the Renaissance. During this period, we have to mention the great Knights.
In 1291, after the fall of the Knights in Aka, the last capital of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, they gave up Palestine and went to Cyprus where they did not stay long. In 1309, they withdrew to Rhode Island. In Rhode Island, the Knights' Navy prevented the expansion of Muslims to the Eastern Mediterranean. When Constantinople fell into hands of Turkish in 1453, the Knights of St. John of Rhode Island were the only Christian force in the Mediterranean. In the Battle of Rhode Island in 1480, the Knights of St. John defeated the attack of the Ottoman Empire. After that, the Knights of St. John moved multiple times, lived in no fixed place. Finally, they came to Malta and evolved into the Knights of Malta.
The Mediterranean civilization is as gorgeous and colourful as its coastline. Investing in life and leisure in the Mediterranean is also one of the life goals. At present, countries in the Mediterranean region also have immigration policies, which are as follows:
Cyprus **** (see below for details)
Malta **** (see below for details)
Turkey **** (see below for details)
Blockbuster 3: The Age of Navigation
Reference film: Pirates of the Caribbean
Epidemics change world history. The Black Death in 14th century had an extremely significant impact on European history and objectively became the driving force and catalyst of the Renaissance. Europe bid farewell to the era of ignorance, a great creativity broke out, and it suddenly became a world leader. It accidentally ran into someone else’s territory.
The first to start is Portugal and Spain. They make money all over the world in a high-key way. It is like a nouveau rich’s style. The entire Europe is filled with jealousy, especially the British. They come to steal when they have nothing to do. Queen Elizabeth once acquiesced to her Pirates (i.e. rogues with business licenses) to rob Spanish ships. In the end, everyone finally tore their face, and European countries came to rob the colonies. Spain and Portugal both declined, and Britain became the last hegemon in Europe and became an empire that never fell. Its territory also constitutes the main immigrant importing countries in today's society.

SHOP THE WORLD
The world is wonderful, life is beautiful and there are many choices. The summary is as follows:

3. Pursue hot stocks, the Hermès of European immigrants. This is suitable for business talents and successful people with unique insight and would like to enjoy life. Reference index*****

Striking a balance between life, business and leisure is the new global high-quality lifestyle we advocate. Investment plus identity is security plus status. If you only need "love" and don't demand status, you can shop all over the world without any restrain. If you pay attention to status, you may wish to take a closer look at our five thousand years of world history and the choice of international identity today. Welcome to leave a message, we have plenty of time to talk about it.
