I haven't read a book in a long time. Some time ago someone criticized me and Pony Ma for being uncultured, for rarely reading books, for walking into the office and having no books on the bookshelf. Are all those books on the office bookshelf ones you've read yourself? They're there for other people to see, to make you look very learned. Who puts books in their office? Whenever I walk into an office and see someone with a lot of books on display, I basically know that eight out of ten of them are frauds.

Come on, now, a show of hands: who has a whole row of books behind their desk, please raise your hand. Those who've read a lot, come on. In childhood I had already read Journey to the West, The Travels of Marco Polo, Zuo Qiuming, the Zuo Zhuan, My Homeland, Natsagdorj, Strange Tales of the Fair Lady, The Gardener, Stray Birds, The Crescent Moon, Tagore, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, Laozi, Confucius, Mozi, Mencius, Zhuangzi, Voltaire, Montesquieu, Diderot, Rousseau.
