Features: Mr. Zhang Zhongxing's writing is extremely distinctive. His prose has a short and abrupt rhythm, rapid jumps in thought, vivid spirit, and a natural charm. The language flows smoothly without being rigid. At times, it resembles large and small pearls falling onto a jade plate, as if one can hear the rhythm. Mr. Zhang is a man of great erudition, with a rich knowledge. He sits leisurely in the sun, calmly observing the myriad manifestations of the world. Discussing Zen and Buddhism, commenting on Confucianism and Taoism, he effortlessly picks up topics, turning them into prose. This level of mastery is quite difficult for others to achieve.
