When we first met, Mr. Xu Yuanchong was very moved. He is over 90 years old, and he was very cute when he was a child. Facing the translation career I love, I will always be young and energetic like a young man, more like a "fanatical" soldier, full of blood and fighting spirit. Speaking of touching things, he has tears in his eyes.
In order to pursue the girl he secretly loves, he translated Lin's Don't Lose into English, which made him attached to translation. He translated China's profound poems into English and French and brought them to the world. He also translated foreign books into Chinese and brought them to China. It builds a bridge for different languages, and different cultures communicate and spread with each other. This is the beauty of translation.
"At any time, in any country, reading aloud is the best means to spread culture, convey ideas and inherit the spirit." -Dong Qing
This should be the reason why Dong Qing wants to be a reader. Reading aloud is for inheritance. It can't change our present situation, nor can it change our fast-developing and increasingly impetuous society. Her appearance is like the existence of "reading day", telling all of us that we can slow down, listen to other people's lives and feel the beauty of life in our daily busy life. We are not trying to change anything, nor are we trying to create anything. We just regard reading and listening as a habit.
