Features: All items in your order will be shipped around April 12th. This is a collection of the author's commentaries, entertainment critiques, essays, and short anecdotes published in newspapers, magazines, and his blog over the past two years. The commentaries and entertainment critiques mock the various oddities in contemporary society and the entertainment industry, with humor, wit, and sharpness. The essays depict everyday life, paint subtle interests, sketch friends' faces, and also include playful and biting remarks on various matters around them, truly embodying Wang Xiaofeng's "in-between black and white." The anecdotes section mimics scriptwriting to tell stories, serving as an exaggerated and concentrated expression of the commentary part. The author has distinctive skills in language use, often twisting and interpreting words to make ordinary phrases suddenly lively and meaningful. The Beijing-style language in the text also adds to the reading enjoyment, allowing readers to experience the characteristics of contemporary Beijing popular culture. The illustrations in this book are by "Goat Beard" Xie Feng, making it a harmonious combination of text and images, complementing each other.
