Features: The Simplified Chinese version of "Pu-erh Tea" contains certain discrepancies in some discussions and historical accounts. Additionally, the author's publishing peers believe that there are already too many tea books in the market, making the prospects unoptimistic. The author had to repeatedly emphasize their: If we set aside the flaws in historical accounts due to time and geographical limitations, "Pu-erh Tea" should be a work with profound cultural significance and strong artistic sensibility, capable of inspiring respect for Pu-erh Tea in every reader. At the time, the upward trend of the Pu-erh Tea market was largely attributed to this book. Regarding the claim that there are too many tea books in the market, the author continuously stressed: There was no specialized book on Pu-erh Tea at that time! It has been proven that these two books ("Yunnan Pu-erh Tea" and "Pu-erh Tea") were successful, and the tea book fever they sparked became a new feature in the publishing industry. This success was both the result of the author's decade-long accumulation and an inevitable outcome of the development of the mainland market economy and the improvement of people's living standards. Subsequently, the market was flooded with creative new works and a large number of poorly executed copies, and the publication of Pu-erh Tea books seemed to have entered a saturated phase. Where is the new path forward? "Practical Pu-erh Tea" (the CD-ROM and its accompanying book) is the author's new attempt. As an independent researcher, without funding or any organizational support, success could only be achieved through sharp judgment and a unique perspective. The hardships involved are difficult to fully describe.
