1996–2006, ten years, 233 issues of the magazine. Ten years of reflection. To review the past decade, at the beginning, facing stacks of magazines piled taller than a person, the memories of the fierce battles in producing over 200 issues, the over 100 people who came and went from this headquarters—there was so much to record, so much to write about. When it was finally completed, I felt many vivid details were left out. Fortunately, the ten years of New Weekly, the sweet and sour, the joys and pains of its operations, are all etched in the memories of the employees who worked here, while the magazine remains in the memories of its readers.
