Features: Lin Xingzhi's political and economic short comments and the leisurely reading notes titled "Flowers in the Forest of Trees." Although the titles differ and the tone varies accordingly, his writing direction remains consistent: providing information and spreading knowledge. Therefore, he can be considered a "pragmatic writer" in the eyes of Oates. Pragmatic writers do not speak without substance; they emphasize being meaningful in every word. Lin Xingzhi's reputation as a Hong Kong pen is built on this foundation of integrity. Professor Zhang Wuchang has always been self-effacing, treating his articles as his own wife. Neither a broom nor a comb should be trifled with, and he has even boasted about it, which has long been a celebrated anecdote. This time, even he acknowledges that Lin Xingzhi is a Hong Kong pen, proving that the claim of being a leader in the field is well-deserved.
Although Lin Xingzhi primarily discusses financial and economic events, he does not shy away from social and political issues. In recent years, he has been living a semi-retired life, writing columns instead of social commentaries, and his book reviews have multiplied. His writings reveal a particularly simple yet profound understanding of the world, and his articles have shed several layers of complexity, smoothly entering a new realm.
