Old Wang was a well-known "Fu collector" in his company. Every year during Alipay's Five Fu collection event, he would get as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood, searching everywhere. This year was no exception. He opened Alipay on time every day, scanned for Fu characters, watered energy trees, and wished he could poke a hole through his phone screen.

This year was different. Alipay had launched a "Universal Rare Card." The official promotion stated that this card could be used to randomly redeem any Fu card, greatly increasing the probability of collecting all five Fu. Old Wang, of course, was no exception. He put in all his effort, running around, and asking people to scan his Fu characters. Finally, on the last day of the event, he got what he wanted, a golden, sparkling Universal Card.
