This book tells the story of Shen Yang, the son of a wealthy businessman who has been divorced for many years. He meets Wenwen by chance at a party, and the two soon fall in love. When the relationship went from the top of the mountain to the trough and finally disappeared, Shenyang underwent tremendous changes from his heart to his actions. His game life began: hunting for women online, tampering with traffic signs, breaking into his boss's office at night, deliberately disrupting the company's opening ceremony, playing tricks on people related to or even unrelated to him... But this game did not bring him happiness, and in the end he became a loner again.

I am increasingly convinced that writing is a form of resistance. Yes, as a logical conclusion that often causes abstract ambiguity, the meaning of resistance is often not something that a writer can realize at the beginning of writing. It is the result of our gradual summary and refinement in the long practice of writing. For example, this is like the earliest clothes made by humans, which were only designed to cover the body and keep out the cold. But later, the main function of clothes was to help humans beautify themselves. What is the purpose of writing to resist? This issue can easily lead to ambiguity and misunderstanding. But there is no way. All human languages ​​and writings, no matter how accurate, will be accompanied by ambiguity and misunderstanding. To remove the obscuration and extract the essence, the only thing we can rely on is the breadth of our hearts.

This is a letter from Diao Dou that appears in his novel "Testimony" ("Testimony" was published in an issue of "Harvest" at the end of the last century). The male protagonist wrote this letter early and told his divorced wife to have his daughter Diao Chan memorize it until she was familiar with it. When he was woken up in the middle of the night to go to jail, he asked his daughter to recite the letter over the phone. Diao Chan was about to wake up, so she instinctively carried this letter that she seemed to understand but didn't understand. In my opinion, it is the best contemporary Chinese novel so far. In terms of narrative structure, it is similar to my favorite Korean movie "Peppermint Candy". It also hides the main plot, and then uses detailed hints to allow readers to guess and construct the untelling story. In addition, the protagonist's attitude towards life and the insights revealed inadvertently are both moving. It is a novel that can be read over and over again with endless aftertaste.
