河南的小伙子樊金林1997年出生，现在已经是四家养老院的院长了，也是国内粉丝最多的养老院院长。
他大学毕业以后，在家人的支持下开了自己的第一家养老院。
一个偶然的机会让他改变了想法，决定把自己的养老院变成免费的。
一位老人曾对樊金林表示，希望能长期居住在养老院，并且希望费用可以便宜一点，老人也愿意为养老院和樊金林做点别的事情。
这个请求让樊金林开始考虑创办一个免费的养老院。
他计划投资120万元钱，让老人们免费住，但是这里的老人们需要拍摄一些视频，把免费养老院变成一个网红养老院，这些视频的收入可以帮助养老院的运营。
樊金林还给老人们准备了一个电子游戏房，因为很多老人非常希望了解年轻人的东西。
他认为，养老院也应该充满活力和欢笑。
