"Meeting Japan" follows the style and format of Xu Jingbo's "Quietly Observing Japan", "The Japanese Way of Living" and "Quietly Talking About Japan", interpreting Japanese people and Japanese spirit through short stories one by one. From the Emperor of Japan to ordinary people, from the Prime Minister of Japan to the Governor of Tokyo, from Japanese actresses to Kyoto geishas, from Tanaka Kakuei to Ishiguro Kazuo, it can be seen what kind of people the Japanese are; from the 731 Troops to the Apa Hotel problem, from Nakano to Ginza, from women's kimonos to men's leather shoes, from tea drinkers From cups to chopsticks for eating, you know a little about what kind of country Japan is; from Kobe Steel's counterfeiting to Toshiba's bankruptcy, from driverless driving to precise GPS positioning, from smog control to post-disaster reconstruction, from investment immigration to self-guided tourism, what kind of "lost twenty years" the Japanese economy has experienced is open to comment.
