This phrase first originated from a post on the stock bar on December 15, 2011, and the reason for the post was the famous Chongqing Beer Black Swan incident-on December 7, 2011, the listed company Chongqing Beer (stock code: 600132) issued an announcement announcing that the hepatitis B vaccine that the company invested heavily in for 13 years has been evaluated by clinical trials as having no significant efficacy, and its efficacy is only 1-2 percentage points higher than that of a "placebo". As soon as the announcement was issued, the stock price fell immediately. It fell by the limit for 9 consecutive times with the word "one". The stock price fell from 80 yuan to 20 yuan, and the market value of more than 20 billion yuan evaporated instantly. And this stock bar post was published on the night when the sixth "one" hit the limit.
On December 7, 2011, the Chongqing Beer Black Swan incident broke out, triggering continuous limit drops and the stock price falling sharply. On December 15, on the night when Chongqing Beer experienced its sixth consecutive night of "one" falling, a netizen from the Oriental Fortune Online Stock Bar published a post titled "Eating and Crying at the same time" at the Chongqing Beer Bar. The content is very simple, just a short sentence - I came home today and cooked some noodles. I cried while eating the noodles, and my tears fell into the bowl without turning on the light.
This stock investor did not have a word of complaint, a word of curse, a word of grief or anger, or a word of pain, but his state of being numb with sorrow and tortured soul and body was vividly described in just one sentence. come out. "Without turning on the lights" is a true portrayal of the exhaustion of life's desire to shrink after deep spiritual trauma. It can be said to be the finishing touch.
After the post was posted, it quickly aroused uproar among shareholders and netizens. Since then, the phrase "turn off the lights and eat noodles" has been widely quoted, and has gradually become a unique way of expressing the inner pain of my country's stock investors.
