Features: This book employs a dual-track, combining explicit and implicit lines. The explicit line includes some information publicly reported by national media, as well as reactions from Sina Weibo users and some insightful comments. This is intended to demonstrate that the entire public participated in this anti-black campaign. The implicit line, which forms the core of the book, is presented in the form of investigative notes, narrating the exclusive behind-the-scenes details of the author's pursuit of black referees. Many of these contain "secrets" little known to the public and "mysteries" widely speculated about but shrouded in secrecy.
