THE REVIEW

Chinese is more beautiful, always remember that.

This is what I was taught, this is what I learned from China, this is what I feel like telling you.

An example: if you have little children, get them used to Chinese-made toys right away. You'll notice the difference immediately. Or rather: your children will notice it.

Our local teddy bears remain still, sad, expressionless. Chinese teddy bears overheat and emit electric shocks.

Children are smart, they understand certain things immediately.

If, like me, you have no children, you can still console yourself with Chinese music.

She, for instance, is one of the first pop artists that the People's Republic of China is launching globally. I said globally. Just to be clear, okay? Not just Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan (oh, those pro-Americans…). Globally.

The Party approves of this, know that too. And when the Party approves of something, it means that thing is good and right. And there's no discussion about it. Any debate on the matter would be superfluous.

Furthermore: the Party doesn't fear competition from the likes of Rihanna, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga (who…?). We simply start from the forecast that, in a few years, Zhang Liangying will surpass the aforementioned names in terms of sales. And if the Party predicts something, it means that thing will happen.

Besides: what do the Chinese lack, apart from football and dominance in Pop music? For football (that is, for miracles - we are getting prepared), for Pop music it will be a short thing.

The first miracle will be Inter winning the championship with 30 points over Juve, the second the Chinese national team triumphing in the World Cup.

I don’t know which of the two seems more miraculous to you, but both will happen.

For now: enjoy Jane from your stereo speakers while your children blow tear gas bubbles. And they are happy.

Chinese is beautiful, and the Chinese can do everything: even silence Munch's scream.
