Features: There are two sentences that say: foreigners looking at Chinese people is completely different from Chinese people looking at Chinese people; and Chinese people looking at foreigners is also completely different from foreigners looking at foreigners. There are also two sentences that say: foreigners coming to China are just there to see something new and novel; while Chinese people in foreign countries always think about themselves. This small book contains these two sentences: foreigners looking at Chinese people is completely different from Chinese people looking at Chinese people; and Chinese people looking at foreigners is also completely different from foreigners looking at foreigners. Thus, this book still cannot escape the perspective of Chinese people looking at foreigners and their observations, feelings, and insights. There are also two sentences in this small book that say: foreigners coming to China are just there to see something new and novel, while Chinese people in foreign countries always think about themselves. Therefore, this book still cannot escape the perspective of using a comparative eye to look at others and reflect on oneself. Writing to this point, I recall an old saying: if there is nothing to say, then be brief. This is not accurate; it should be that if there is nothing to say, then stop, and that's enough.
