Features: The soul, music, and visuals flow like a gentle stream through the movement of his hands, permeating Cai Zhizhong's life and creations. Starting to work outside at the age of fifteen, Cai Zhizhong jokingly refers to himself as "not heavily polluted by institutional systems." Driven by his own interests and efforts, he eventually developed a unique learning and creative model. Today, his works have been sold worldwide, becoming a pride of the Chinese comic industry. What's even rarer is that he doesn't attract readers with pornography or violence, but rather with the profound wisdom of interpreting classics such as The Analects, Tao Te Ching, Zhuangzi, and Buddhist scriptures. After turning thirty-five, he had an epiphany: "The rest of life is what you earn, not fully yours, and you should do more for others." The prerequisite is: "You must first please yourself; only by moving yourself can you move others." "Just do it" almost became his mantra. He kept drawing, kept writing, and kept completing his thoughts. The visuals became the language of his thoughts, and his thoughts became concrete visuals, intertwining, merging, and reorganizing. The line between reality and dreams seemed to blur, no wonder one of his favorite songs is the "Beyond Dreams" by the Japanese talented woman. Music in Cai Zhizhong's life is another form of manifestation. He transformed the music of Hayashi Kage and Kitaro into the nutrients of lush green plants in the room, while also transforming it into thoughts and visuals.
