Everything starts with the tutoring culture in Taiwan.

In the 1950s, Taiwan began to hold the joint university admissions examination. However, due to the small number of schools, the admission rate was quite low. In order to be admitted to the university, students could only continue to study hard in cram schools.
In the 1960s, Taiwan began to implement 9-year compulsory education. Affected by factors such as the pressure of further studies, the placement system, the low university admission rate, and the desire to get rid of poverty through education, the tutoring culture was born and reached its peak in the 1970s and 1980s. .
Taiwan's Nanyang Street once became a "tutorial street" in Taiwanese population, and even spread to surrounding streets centered on it, forming the tutoring business district of Taipei Main Station. On the high-rise buildings on both sides of Nanyang Street, there are star-studded tutoring billboards promoting various famous teachers and schools all the time.After
entered the 21st century, with the reform of the examination system and the increase in the number of universities, it is no longer difficult to take the university entrance examination in Taiwan, but the trend of tutoring has not spread out because of this, but has evolved into more diversification.
According to statistics from the Taiwan Education Department, in January 2013, there were 18,956 cram schools registered in Taiwan, more than double the number of convenience stores that are ubiquitous on the streets of Taiwan. There have also been media reports that 90% of students in Taiwan have attended various cram schools.
's deep-rooted tutoring atmosphere has enabled all kinds of famous schools and famous teachers to gain both fame and fortune in Taiwan.

On March 16, 1991, a girl was born in a family of doctors in Taiwan, named Lin Yihan.
Lin Yihan's father is Lin Binghuang, a well-known dermatologist in Tainan. Seeing a doctor is good and affordable, but Lin Binghuang has an unwritten rule that patients need to listen to his speech before they can take medicine. Therefore, he was nicknamed "Tainan Weird Doctor Black Jack".
As Lin Binghuang's beloved daughter, Lin Yihan naturally cannot escape this "honor", and the outside world often calls her "Tainan strange doctor daughter".
Lin Yihan grew up slim at a young age, with a good family background, good grades, love of literature since childhood, and excellent temperament. Her future can be said to be bright.
In 2007, 16-year-old Lin Yihan studied at Tainan Girls' High School. During his school days, Lin Yihan served as captain of the school's volleyball team and editor-in-chief of the school magazine, and his grades were also very good.
Even so, Lin Yihan could not escape the "charm" of the tutoring culture. She was sent to a tutoring class by her parents. The tutor Lin Binghuang found for her daughter was Chen Xing with the reputation of "North Wu Yue, Nan Chen Xing".
Since then, Lin Yihan's life has gradually entered a dark abyss.
In 2008, Lin Yihan, a sophomore in high school, suffered from severe depression. She went from Tainan to Taipei every Tuesday for in-depth psychotherapy, and every Friday she went to the outpatient clinic to get medicine.
The "busy" life made Lin Yihan lose his ability to be happy and his passion for life and life. In order to keep herself alive, she pinned all her pain on her studies.
In 2009, Lin Yihan was admitted to the Department of Medicine of Taipei Medical University with full credits from Tainan Girls' High School, and became the only student of Tainan Girls' High School who got full marks in the university entrance exam. She is "the most beautiful full-grade baby".
However, Lin Yihan had to drop out of school due to worsening depression after just two weeks of schooling.
According to Taiwan's "Apple Daily" report, in October 2009, Lin Binghuang and his wife had a negotiation after learning about the "teacher-student love" between their daughter and Chen Xing. During the negotiation, Lin Yihan's parents scolded Chen Xing for "being a teacher but ignorant of ethics", while Chen Xing's wife scolded Lin Yihan for "knowing that Mr. Chen has a wife, why did he still fall in love with the teacher?"
Chen Xing's wife Said that if the Lin family did not give her an explanation, they would file a lawsuit. The Lin family immediately panicked when they heard the "sue".
At this time, Chen Xing's wife asked Lin Yihan to kneel and apologize, but Lin Yihan could only do so, and finally the two sides reached an agreement to break up.
But after the incident, Lin Yihan couldn't accept the incident, his mental state became very bad, and he finally committed suicide by swallowing more than 300 sleeping pills.

Three years later, Lin Yihan re-taken the college entrance examination and was admitted to the Chinese Department of National Chengchi University, under the tutelage of contemporary Taiwanese literature research scholar Chen Fangming.
In 2014, Lin Yihan, who was in her third year of college, found that she was not the only student who was seduced by Chen Xing, so she posted an article on the Internet accusing "Master Wolf" and wanted to call on other victims to stand up together, but not only did no one respond, She was also ridiculed by many netizens as being a junior.
Later, Lin Yihan, accompanied by her boyfriend, sought legal aid many times and planned to sue Chen Xing, the "Wolf Master". The result was told that because of insufficient evidence and the age, there was little chance of winning an appeal.
Affected by these events, Lin Yihan's depression relapsed and she was forced to drop out of school again. During the days of school leave, Lin Yihan often suffered from dissociation, which is schizophrenia.
Literary-loving Lin Yihan quoted Plato to call "dissociation" a "spiritual opposition", that is, " The trauma to my body is so great that my soul has to leave my body before I can live. "
During the days of dissociation, Lin Yihan also had another symptom: could not read .
Therefore, Lin Yihan had no way to take the final exam, so she asked the doctor to issue a diagnosis certificate, made many copies and sent it to the professors of each department to explain to them why she could not take the final exam.
In exchange for Lin Yihan's polite behavior, he was called by the head of the Chinese Department to the office for a talk, and the assistant of the head of the department was also present. The
teaching assistant said to Lin Yihan: "I have seen too many mentally ill students, self-harm, suicide. I think you are fine and normal." After reading the diagnosis certificate, the
department director said to Lin Yihan Nine words: "Where did you get this?"
The questioning of bystanders made Lin Yi instantly fall into the ice cave, extremely cold.
She said: "At the moment, I think I am cowardly", "I will never forget those nine words in my life."
In this way, Lin Yihan's study was interrupted twice due to depression.
Talking about this past, Lin Yihan said: "No one knows that I am more unwilling than anyone else, it is this disease, it exploits everything I used to be proud of, and even I can't study, God knows How much I want a college diploma."
In the following years, due to the torture of illness, Lin Yihan has been in a situation of no job and no education. Because of taking psychiatric drugs for a long time, she began to become sluggish, lethargic, and gain weight...
Faced with these conditions, other people's questions were "why should I leave school", "why can I not work", "why should I leave school once and twice" Why don't you take a little medicine?"...
In the face of depression, Lin Yihan has never been able to make his own choices. Among those "useless" feelings of unease, Lin Yihan insisted only on writing articles.
In those dark days, Lin Yihan's boyfriend Feng Xuanye became a light in her life, he taught Lin Yihan "equality".

In 2016, Lin Yihan and her boyfriend Feng Xuanye got engaged. At the engagement banquet, Lin Yihan told the pain and suffering of being a mentally ill patient through a speech of more than 20 minutes.
She said:
If I am a new person today, if I can be a new person, if I can be a new person, if I can be a new person, then what kind of person should I be.
I want to be someone who is more imaginative about the suffering of others, I want to be the kind of person who can tell kids who want to be mentally ill that desire is wrong, I want to be someone who can make money or The kind of person that people who don't have money go to the doctor without scruples, I want to be the kind of person who can actually help de-stigmatize mental illness.
In February 2017, Lin Yihan's feature-length debut "Fang Siqi's Paradise of First Love" was released.
Two months later, Lin Yihan committed suicide at his residence. In fact, many years before this, Lin Yihan committed suicide three times, and he was rescued only because he was discovered by his family in time.
Lin Yihan committed suicide on the second day, her parents issued a statement through the publishing house, Chen Xing, a famous teacher who "seduced female students", was pushed to the forefront, and Chen Xing's past was "human flesh".
In the face of this incident, Chen Xing only responded with eight words at first: "Everyone is dead, it is useless to talk about it." Teacher "hurt".
As the matter continued to spread, Chen Xing's daughter also suffered from cyber bullying. Under the pressure, she committed suicide by cutting her wrists and was sent to the hospital.
On May 9, 2017, Chen Xing, who had been "missing" for 12 days, issued a statement through his lawyer, saying: "I am not a wolf teacher." "This incident seriously involves the safety of my family, so I must not continue to be silent." After having a relationship, we have been dating for two months"...
Because the public opinion of the Lin Yihan incident had too much influence, the Tainan District Prosecutor's Office began to intervene in the investigation. Four months later, the Tainan District Prosecutor's Office found that due to insufficient evidence Chen Xing will not prosecute. The
case is over.
Later, because of the deep influence of "Lin Yihan's suicide incident", Taiwan's "Legislative Yuan" revised the "Supplementary Education Law" three times.
In the short 26 years of Lin Yihan's life, she has been carrying the labels of "sexual assault victim", "depressed patient" and "schizophrenic patient" for a long time. She struggled and tried to get out.Under pressure, she was still admitted to the university with excellent grades, and she also entered into a marriage with the person she loves. She pays attention to the topic of women, corrects the name of the mentally ill, and also tried her best to seek help from the law...
I saw it once After the hopeless times, Lin Yihan began to use the pen in his hand as a weapon to reveal the true face of "Li Guohua" in "Fang Siqi's First Love Paradise".
"Fang Siqi's Paradise of First Love" is Lin Yihan's last cry, no one knows why she chose a dead end, just like no one knows why Leslie Cheung chose that jump.
Lin Yihan's desire for "life" is the same as her desire for "university diploma", but she can't get it.
In Lin Yihan's suicide note, she said: I'm sorry to my family.
are those who are alive, how many people are worthy of her?
