Features: We express in Chinese. We search and record all mature Chinese literature. It may have the tension of a resilient neck, the density of a fine texture, the elegance chasing the void of tradition, or the weight of sound, form, and meaning. It may also be visible in the iron-like glow emitted from the body as contemporary Chinese progresses, or audible in the growth of ideas, the resounding syllables breaking through the void, as well as all the colors, sounds, scents, thickness, and quality needed to drive this fluid narration. In literary circles, people call me an official; in official circles, they call me a writer. In trendy terms, I am an outcast. In truth, I am nothing at all, just an awkward person. The word "official" () is not about officials, but about the "field" (). Once a person enters this "field," they are controlled by it and cannot escape unless they possess divine power, which does not exist in the mortal world.
