Features: It's been thirty years since I haven't seen Eileen Chang. Thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye. As a loyal reader of Eileen Chang, I long to see her new The Golden Cangue and Love in a Fallen City. – "The moon of thirty years ago has long," I hope, "The story of thirty years ago hasn't ended." This is a collection of essays by famous people about famous people. My relationship with Wu Zuoguang has spanned 50 years. In my heart, Wu Zuoguang is one of the most uniquely valuable figures in contemporary Chinese culture, even an extraordinary one. I don't mean the widely recognized achievements he has made in dramatic creation, nor his erudition and literary talent. I mean him as a person, as a cultural figure, who has lived through such a unique historical environment in China, enduring continuous blows and humiliations in political circumstances, yet has managed to maintain the character, dignity, and freedom of mind of a cultural figure through sheer resilience. That is truly a miracle.
