problem_description: Statement
  
  There is a grid with infinitely many rows and columns. In this grid, there is
  a rectangular region with consecutive N rows and M columns, and a card is
  placed in each square in this region. The front and back sides of these cards
  can be distinguished, and initially every card faces up.
  
  We will perform the following operation once for each square contains a card:
  
    * For each of the following nine squares, flip the card in it if it exists: the target square itself and the eight squares that shares a corner or a side with the target square.
  
  It can be proved that, whether each card faces up or down after all the
  operations does not depend on the order the operations are performed. Find the
  number of cards that face down after all the operations.
