The bookstore also organized a literary salon between me and Hu Shaoqing, a professor of Chinese literature at the University of International Business and Economics, on the topic of "dark writing"-a literary genre focusing on the dark side of humankind and the world. I have written a lot of novels of this genre based on my past experience as a policeman.

I also made a booklist for readers, which includes short stories by Franz Kafka, Edgar Allen Poe, Ernest Hemingway, novels by Dostoev-sky and Tolstoy, drama by Lao She and Shakespeare and so on.

But I don't recommend essays, especially arguments and political criticism, because I think we have read enough arguments and most of them are explaining the same moral judgment over and over again.

Overall, I think the project is quite good for me to meet readers, as I could not receive them at home, and I also look forward to visiting the following in-store writers. It is a good chance to meet new friends in literary circles. Otherwise it is hard to find them and make an appointment.

Some suggestions for the project: It would be ideal to invite writers of similar backgrounds or focus to come to the bookstore one after the other, such as holding a young writers' month or Spanish literature month to showcase one aspect of literature in a concentrated period of time. Cooperating with universities and cultural institutes is also a good way to reach more people.

I hope the project can gradually form something like the "Left Bank" in Paris during the 19th century and early 20th century, where great artists, writers and philosophers met and talked, creating the cultural space that celebrated ideas and fostered creativity.
