They are the most successful people in this era, and they have created countless myths. They almost broke free from a very primitive state of existence and became the creators of modern civilization in a very short period of time. They are not the farmers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the 1930s in Fei Xiaotong's vision, nor are they the farmers in northern Shaanxi in the 1940s described by Zhao Shuli. They are not Dazhai-style farmers or farmers in Xiaogang Village. They are themselves. We are looking for a farmer. In fact, we are getting closer to a dream that is being realized. In a broader sense, the farmers we are paying attention to are a microcosm of the hundreds of millions of Chinese farmers who are changing their destiny in the East today.

Why Don't You Harass Me

Wu Xiaobo

Mr. Lu Xun is the best essayist since the vernacular. He disliked everything and always liked to stab people with a small dagger. Therefore, in the photos that remain today, he always looks very serious. Occasionally, he laughs heartily, but he always reveals a very confused melancholy. Essayists all over China regard Mr. Lu Xun as their idol. Therefore, when writing articles, I am very concerned about the country and the people. Eastern intellectuals seem to have this "melancholy complex." A young man once asked a great director in the Soviet era, whose name I forgot, but who seemed to have made a very famous movie, "How can we become a great director?" The old man said, "All you owe is a prison sentence." I am not an essayist, and I don't want to wait for a prison sentence, but I was born to only write articles to make a living. Therefore, I usually write some "serious" financial articles and books. Occasionally, when my hands feel itchy, I make up a character named "Mr. Wu" and let him flaunt around, hit walls, and cause trouble. The more stories this person makes up, the more it becomes a small virtual society. He has a wife, a daughter, neighbors, cousins, and colleagues. He keeps pace with the times every day, lives endlessly, and keeps getting weird. After years of crawling and climbing, his deeds have actually become spectacular. Hence, this book. It should be noted here that "Mr. Wu" has little to do with "Wu Xiaobo". The reason why they have the same surname is purely coincidental. However, in the final analysis, they are ordinary people who like to be smart. In this regard, many people in China are like this.
