十一月 8 in Beijing, Wang Hao (online name “Yituhao”) organized a special event he called a “half funeral” to mark the 15,000th day of his life, which he views as the midpoint of an average human lifespan. Using a stand-up comedy style, he reviewed the successes, failures, and lessons of his first half of life, hoping to officially “lay the past to rest” and welcome a new beginning. More than 50 friends and family members attended.

The most widely discussed part was the eulogy delivered by his 11.75-year-old daughter. Having never been to a funeral before, she struggled to write it, and even AI tools couldn’t help because it was a eulogy for a living person. After guidance and several drafts, she presented a nearly five-minute speech at the event, expressing her love and hope that “Dad will never die and can stay with me forever.” Many netizens praised this moment as a valuable form of “death education” for children.

Wang Hao said he has always valued ritual, having celebrated milestones like buying a house, buying a car, and getting married in creative ways. After going through personal setbacks and a serious car accident this year, he wanted a symbolic ceremony to release the past and restart life. The three-hour “half funeral,” filled with both laughter and tears, became a farewell to his first 15,000 days and a blessing for the future.

11月8日，北京男子王昊（网名“一土昊”）举办了一场别出心裁的 “半个葬礼”，以纪念自己人生的 第15000天，象征生命的中点。他以脱口秀的形式回顾前半生的成就、挫折和思考，希望通过“告别过去”来开启新的生活阶段。当天有 50多位亲友 到场参加。

最受关注的是他 11.75岁的女儿现场致悼词。因为从未参加过葬礼，女儿最初不知道如何写悼词，甚至连人工智能工具都无法提供参考。经过父亲的引导、数次修改后，她最终在现场发表了近五分钟的悼词，回顾父亲的经历，也表达了“希望爸爸永远不死、永远陪在我身边”的心愿。许多网友称这是一次非常有意义的“死亡教育”。

王昊称自己一直很注重仪式感，从买房、买车到婚礼都以独特方式庆祝过，而“葬礼”是他人生中唯一未体验的仪式。今年他经历人生低谷及一场车祸后，希望借这场仪式彻底放下前半生，重新出发。这场三个小时的“半个葬礼”，既有欢笑也有泪水，既是告别，也是新生的开始。
