About This Novel
"Lao Zhang's Philosophy" tells the story of a rogue villain in old Beijing who held multiple professions and believed in multiple religions. He relied on his naked philistine philosophy to commit all kinds of shameless acts. In a humorous tone, it vividly mocks the secular philosophy of patriarchal suburban areas. "Cat City" tells the story of "I" who survived a crash on Mars and was taken to Cat City by a group of aliens with cat faces to start a difficult life in Cat City. The author used the description of the chaotic life and ugly behavior of cat people to criticize the chaos caused by various disputes in the country at that time.

This is a novel that describes the life of college students in an all-round way and is a deconstructive reflection on the image of students during the May Fourth Movement.

It describes the heroic behavior of the Chinese army taking advantage of the emptiness of the "Wencheng" occupied by the enemy and sending plainclothes teams to sneak attack the city.
