第七星球 · SIX-HOUR WEEK MANIFESTO THE SEVENTH PLANET · SIX-HOUR WEEK MANIFESTO

人不是机器。Humans are not machines.

未来的人,每周只工作六小时。 In the future, people work six hours a week.

两百年前,工人每天在机器旁站十六个小时,被告知:这就是命。
今天,你一周工作六十个小时,也被告知:这就是生活。

八小时不是自然规律,六十小时更不是。工时的历史只证明了一件事——时间,从来是争来的。

Two hundred years ago, workers stood sixteen hours a day at the machines and were told: that is your lot.
Today you work sixty hours a week and are told: that is life.

Eight hours is not a law of nature — neither is sixty. The history of working time proves one thing only: time is never given. It is taken.

7 天 × 24 小时 = 168 7 DAYS × 24 HOURS = 168

你的一周,本来的样子Your week, as it really is

一周有 168 个小时。在机器接管重复劳动之后,真正需要「人」出场的,只有其中六格——判断、品味、创造,和与人相处。剩下的 162 格:睡觉、恋爱、锻炼、发呆、跳舞、陪孩子、读一本没用的书。

A week holds 168 hours. Once machines absorb the repetitive work, only six of these squares truly need a human — judgment, taste, creation, time with people. The other 162: sleep, love, lifting, daydreaming, dancing, your kids, a book of no use whatsoever.

工时简史 · A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE WORKDAY A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE WORKDAY

「八小时」不是天经地义The eight-hour day was invented

它是喊出来的、罢工罢出来的、最后用利润证明出来的。每一次工时缩短,都始于一群「不切实际」的人。

Shouted into existence, struck for, and finally proven by profit. Every shortening of the workday began with people called "unrealistic."

1817

一句口号A slogan

罗伯特·欧文喊出:「八小时劳动,八小时休闲,八小时睡眠。」这不是科学计算,是把一天三等分的修辞——但好记的话,才走得远。

Robert Owen coined it: "Eight hours' labour, eight hours' recreation, eight hours' rest." Not science — a day cut into three memorable pieces. But memorable words travel far.

1856

第一批八小时的人The first eight-hour workers

墨尔本的石匠集体放下工具,成为世界上第一批「八小时工作、工资不减」的工人。示范样本,永远先于普遍规则。

Melbourne's stonemasons downed tools and became the first workers in the world to win eight hours with no cut in pay. The working sample always precedes the general rule.

1886

干草市场Haymarket

芝加哥,五月。为了八小时,有人罢工,有人流血,有人上了绞架。你每年过的五一劳动节,就是从这里来的。

Chicago, May. For the eight-hour day, some struck, some bled, some went to the gallows. That is where your May Day comes from.

1914

账本开口说话The ledger speaks

福特把日薪翻倍、工时砍到八小时——利润不降反升。从此老板们不再需要被道德说服:道德打开话题,账本关闭争论。

Ford doubled the daily wage and cut the day to eight hours — and profits rose. Bosses no longer needed moral persuasion: morality opens the conversation; the ledger closes it.

1919

写进国际公约Into international convention

国际劳工组织第一号公约确立八小时工作制。距离欧文喊出那句口号,人类走了一百零二年。

ILO Convention No. 1 established the eight-hour day — one hundred and two years after Owen's slogan.

1995

你习以为常的周末The weekend you take for granted

中国开始实行双休日。今天你觉得理所当然的星期六,三十年前还不存在。

China adopted the two-day weekend. The Saturday you now consider natural didn't exist thirty years ago.

2026

该我们了。Our turn.

机器第一次真正会思考、会干活。上一次动力革命把工时从十六小时压到八小时——这一次,轮到六小时了。

For the first time, machines can truly think and work. The last power revolution cut the day from sixteen hours to eight. This one cuts the week to six.

被偷走的预言 · THE STOLEN PROPHECY THE STOLEN PROPHECY

凯恩斯没有算错,
红利被拿走了
Keynes wasn't wrong.
The dividend was taken.

一九三〇年,经济学家凯恩斯预言:到二〇三〇年,技术进步将让人类每周只需工作十五小时

生产率此后翻了几十倍。时间却没有回到你手里——红利被换成了更多消费、更多会议、更多「看起来很忙」。

In 1930, John Maynard Keynes predicted that by 2030, technology would let us work fifteen hours a week.

Productivity has multiplied many times since. The time never came back to you — the dividend was converted into more consumption, more meetings, more looking busy.

技术红利,从不自动兑换成自由。
自由要去拿。
Tech dividends never convert to freedom by themselves.
Freedom is taken.

AI 是第四次机会,也可能是第四次被偷走——取决于你站在哪一边:使用机器的人,还是被机器计时的人。

AI is the fourth chance — and could be the fourth theft. It depends on which side you're on: the one who runs the machines, or the one the machines clock.

三步,把时间拿回来Three steps to take time back

不靠许愿,不等立法。从一个人可以独立完成的动作开始。

No wishing, no waiting for laws. Start with what one person can do alone.

STEP 01

学习 AILearn AI

把 AI 当第二语言学。不是「了解一下」,而是每天用它干真活:写作、检索、编码、分析。会用 AI 的人不会被取代——取代你的,是另一个会用 AI 的人。

Treat AI like a second language. Not "checking it out" — using it daily on real work: writing, research, code, analysis. People who master AI won't be replaced; you'll be replaced by someone who did.

STEP 02

建造系统Build systems

让 AI 代理替你值班:获客、交付、答疑、记账。当收入来自系统而不是你坐在工位上的小时数,「上班」这个词就开始失效了。

Put AI agents on shift for you: acquiring clients, delivering, answering, bookkeeping. Once income flows from systems rather than hours at a desk, the word "job" starts losing its grip.

STEP 03

留下六小时Keep six hours

机器接管重复,人保留不可让渡的部分:判断、品味、创造,和与人相爱。这六小时不是残余——是人之为人的浓缩。

Machines take the repetition. Humans keep what can't be delegated: judgment, taste, creation, and loving people. These six hours aren't a leftover — they're the concentrate of being human.

新的口号 · A NEW SLOGANA NEW SLOGAN
1817 年,他们说:八小时劳动,八小时休闲,八小时睡眠。 In 1817 they said: eight hours' labour, eight hours' recreation, eight hours' rest.
「六小时工作,
一百六十二小时人生。」—— 2026 年,我们说。
"Six hours of work,
one hundred sixty-two hours of life."— 2026, we say.
行动 · 90-DAY EXPERIMENTACTION · THE 90-DAY EXPERIMENT

不是信仰,是实验Not a faith. An experiment.

我们不要求你相信任何口号。我们请你参加一场为期九十天、账本公开的验证。

We are not asking you to believe a slogan. We are inviting you to a ninety-day verification with an open ledger.

  • 每期十人,小到彼此认识,大到互相作证。
  • Ten people per cohort — small enough to know each other, enough to witness each other.
  • 真实运行六小时工作周,其余交给 AI 系统承接。
  • Run a real six-hour work week; AI systems absorb the rest.
  • 收入、时间日志、AI 分工,全部公开复盘——可验证,也可证伪。
  • Income, time logs, AI division of labor — all reviewed in the open. Verifiable, and falsifiable.
  • 无效随时退出。实验不要求忠诚,只要求诚实。
  • Quit whenever it fails. The experiment asks for honesty, not loyalty.
