The poem "Standing on the Edge of the Earth and Calling Numbers" shows the image of a giant to readers. The giant stands on the edge of the earth. He can overlook the earth from "all directions" and blow the trumpet that resounds throughout the world. The sound of his trumpet hails the raging white clouds and the magnificent clear scene of the Arctic Ocean, hails the Pacific Ocean that is about to overthrow the earth, and hails the rolling waves coming from all directions in space. An overwhelming torrent not only has huge destructive power, but also contains equally huge creativity. It depends on whether people can master it and control it.
