Fascinating discussions at DealBook Summit in NYC this past week. Glad to have taken part in the round table on US-China. Such necessary conversations—but are they easy? Not really. Yet one day we will look back on these times and be glad we insisted. nytimes.com/2023/12/06/bus…


Got *the sticker* on the reprint!

Now it’s nice to have a Pulitzer Finalist sticker on the cover of the amazing book. This is more than just a history book. I recommend whoever wants to understand more about China and why the US and China are such two different nations to read it. History always teaches us…

A fascinating keynote by “Kingdom of Characters” author @tsu_jing about the process of mapping Chinese characters and the various adaptations for inputting characters onto both Western and Chinese versions of computer keyboards!

“China has been studying the West far longer than it has studied China in turn,” says @tsu_jing, author of Kingdom of Characters. It explores China's evolution & its language. “Failure is not something the Chinese shy away from; they see it very much as experiences to learn from”

This is from @tsu_jing’s absolutely wonderful book which I recommend to anyone interested in language, no Mandarin required.
