“The New Prisoner” is set in an era where the goal is to create a "better new world", where the city is transformed into a factory with the seven deadly sins as its gravitational force. The calm daily life has long been infiltrated by the directives of thinking: under the blessing of capital, social software and media act as its mouthpiece, entertainment to death is prevalent, consumerism is rampant, reversing black and white and playing with public opinion ...... The rapidly developing information network has transformed into shackles stained with honey, and the traps of arrogance, greed, lust, envy, overeating, The traps of pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth are pressing, and human beings are gradually turning into the ant monsters, being "penitentiated" into "voluntary prisoners". The design of "New Prisoners" takes this as the starting point, and the treacherous space reflects the pathological ideology, which becomes an important tool to imprison people. The "prisoners" are characterized by different original sins, bound by space and shaped by space at the same time; seven deadly sins are viruses that eat and infect different "organs". By the end of the story, the minds have been successfully controlled and the transformation of the "new humans" is complete. However, the "new humans", who think they have been successfully transformed and are full of superiority, become capital goods forever and are imprisoned in a cage.
