Features: Comrade Cai RuoHong is an elder figure in our art circle. Over the decades, he has made significant contributions to the prosperity of socialist art, — especially in strengthening theoretical development. Even at his advanced age, he remains sharp in thought, insightful in vision, concerned with creative trends, and supportive of the growth of young artists, continuously publishing profound works. As a junior scholar, I have benefited greatly from his insights. Recently, I was honored to be asked by Comrade Cai to write a preface for this collection. As a humble and junior follower, I truly dare not add my own words. With a sense of reverence, I can only share some reflections on my reading, driven by a thirst for knowledge.
