WORK / LIVE 干活 Zhang Xiuliang 张秀良

Zhang Xiuliang on fishing: he has gone fishing since childhood. He lived near a river and would skip school to fish. The act is slow and focused, and can make you better tempered. Nothing matters, everything can be forgotten in that moment.

“Out of 24 hours, only five belong to me – when I’m asleep, and then I’m unconscious. Fishing is a suspended time, away from work and life.”

Zhang Xiuliang 张秀良 (born 1985 in Qiqihar) has worked for four years on the assembly line at Bernard Controls. His main job is assembling valve actuators.
