Features: "Notes on Striving for Serious and Diligent Thinking" is one of the "Six Notes of Yongyu." Mr. Huang said that when Zou Difan went to his place to ask for poetry manuscripts for the Poetry Magazine, he took out these sentences. Mr. Zou took these sentences back and published them in the Poetry Magazine, giving them the peculiar title "Notes on Striving for Serious and Diligent Thinking," which was probably also a characteristic of the era. These sentences and accompanying illustrations have long been lost in the corners of memory. Now, rereading them feels like reading a new book, and they are still as enjoyable as ever. For example, when talking about "laughter," Mr. Huang drew a string of pearls, with a smiling face as the pendant, and the accompanying line was, "In the era when laughter becomes a luxury, that era is in danger."
