Features: The creation of the book "Starry River of the Milky Way" (Chinese Lexicographical Publishing House). The book records twenty-eight cultural celebrities, including poets such as Zang Kejia, Feng Zhi, Ren Jun, Xin Di, and Yan Yi; novelists like Zhou Erfu, Jun Qing, Dai Houying, and Shi Zhecun; translators such as Sun Dàyǔ, Qian Chunqi, and Bian Zhilin; and scholars such as Liu Dajie, Wan Yunjun, Wang Yunxi, and Xu Zhongyu. Additionally, it includes several artists such as He Luting, Qin Yi, Chen Congzhou, and Zhang Ruifang. Despite their diverse personalities, they all possess shining qualities. For example, He Luting's quick wit, humor that exudes grandeur, and a gentle demeanor without lacking firmness; Qin Yi's elegant appearance and pure, kind-hearted nature; Zang Kejia's amiability and magnanimity; Li Junmin's erudition and sincerity; Jun Qing's approachability and integrity; Chen Congzhou's straightforwardness and versatility; Qian Chunqi's simplicity and humility; Feng Zhi's sincerity and passion; Wang Yunxi's gentleness and kindness; Bian Zhilin's meticulousness; and Gu Yisheng's harmonious and amiable nature—none of these left an extremely deep impression on me. From this, we can reflect that some of the fine traditions and outstanding qualities of our motherland and nation are always passed down to future generations through certain carriers; and the vivid and powerful core of these carriers may well be these respected and highly skilled cultural celebrities!
