"No Results: Hu Liang's Essays" contains 28 poetic essays written by the author in the past six or seven years, and is accompanied by "Minutes of the Seminar on Hu Liang's Poetry". The book discusses classical poets such as Chen Ziang, Su Dongpo, and Zhang Chuanshan, as well as contemporary poets such as Jidi Maga, Xiang Yixian, Lu Yimin, An Qi, Jiang Hao, Yang Qingxiang, Chen Ge, and Cheng Yiyi, as well as Omo Gayamo and William Shakespeare. Shakespeare and other foreign poets, covering important topics such as new poetry and tradition, new poetry and ecologicalism, new poetry and ethnic minority resources, new poetry and Chinese, new poetry and cosmology, new poetry and rhetoric, new poetry and foreign cultural resources. The author adheres to the "perceptual criticism" he has always advocated, and provides new possibilities for contemporary Chinese literary criticism, especially new poetry criticism. Bai Hua, a poet, scholar and professor at Southwest Jiaotong University, believes: "Hu Liang's perceptual criticism is brilliant and corresponds to what Stephen Owen calls 'entertaining the mind' and what Roland Barthes calls 'the joy of writing.' It is an inviting writing full of sensual beauty that makes people cheer. The writing of 'the setting sun and the solitary owl fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky' has the 'possibility of making people curious and fascinated.'"
