Features: Precisely for this reason, no one in the contemporary poetry scene is more in need of interpretation than Hai Zi. Only by dispelling the various mysticistic halos attached to Hai Zi can his unique poetic essence, distinctive poetic artistry, and the poetic significance contained in his poems truly be brought into prominence. Therefore, interpreting Hai Zi is both about removing the various veils that obscure the understanding of Hai Zi and also about promoting a new poetic spirit. Those lonely flowers are the lost lips of spring. He has "three sufferings," which are "wandering, love, and survival"; his "three blessings" are "poetry, the throne, and the sun."
