Features: "Rethinking the Man-Insect" is the latest work of the new generation "Beijing-flavored writer" Liu Yida. "The Man-Insect" can be said to be Liu Yida's masterpiece. After its publication, the book caused a sensation in society, selling well for many years. It has been reprinted twice and printed six times, with a circulation of over a million copies. It was adapted into a 21-episode television series with the same title, which was broadcast on more than 30 television stations across the country, ranking first in viewership ratings. As a result, "The Man-Insect" became a topic of discussion across the nation and was well-known in Beijing. Liu Yida was jokingly called "The Man-Insect Master" and was introduced by numerous television stations such as China Central Television, Phoenix TV, Beijing TV, Hunan TV, Tianjin TV, and over 80 domestic and international newspapers and magazines. "Rethinking the Man-Insect" is a sequel to "The Man-Insect." The book includes eleven new "insects" created by Liu Yida. It reveals many little-known social behind-the-scenes stories and vividly portrays the survival states of some eccentric yet lifelike small characters—the "" of Beijing, who, if they cannot become dragons, must at least become "insects." The language of the book is humorous and witty, with a realistic and vivid depiction of the social realities.
