Today when I surf on the Internet, I find a piece of information which makes me very surprised.
The Times begins its annual activity choosing 100 the world’s most influential people all over the world. What makes me surprised is that Han han, a young Chinese writer, is in the list of candidates. What’s more, he gets the most votes among the Chinese candidates. Even the president of USA gets fewer votes than him. The explanation of the Times is that he is one of the best sellers in china and he arouses the debate about quality-oriented education.
Now his fans are calling on people to vote for him. To be honest, I have to admit that Han han is very popular in china. And he dares to criticize the officials. But what I want to ask is that when does Han han have a global influence? On the one hand, most of his fans are Chinese, so his international influence is very limited. On the other hand, the amount of the fans is not the largest in china.
Finally, I want to say the ballot constitution is not very proper. Because china has the largest population in the world. So Han han is very likely to appear in the final list.
In my opinion, the fans of Han han should be calm. Because now Han han doesn’t have global influences. Being chosen as one of the world’s most influential people can bring him nothing but embarrassment.
To be honest, I do not consider Han han as a high reputed writer, for I think many of his novels consists of some insulting words.
ReplyDeleteI think we should look at the results critically. Actually Han Han is not only known by Chinese, He is also well-known by some foreigners. I like him in some aspects. Such as he dares to critise all the bad phenomenas in the society which is the basic responsiblity of a writer. I think if he influences China greatly which has the largest population in the world, he did a great contribution definitely.
ReplyDeleteI cannot agree with you on it is an embarrassment because all these votes are voted by his fans one by one. Maybe in his fans herat Han Han is the greatest writer! Voting for someone is everyone's freedom, we should repect their freedom!
ReplyDeleteI don't like Han Han very much. I just like few books written by him. Some of his critiques are very extreme.
ReplyDeleteOn one hand I do appreciate Han Han's courage to expose the dark sides of our society.But on the other hand,I think his comments are too aggressive and even dirty.What's worse,it seems that he has already turned into a so-called writer for the sake of commerce not for the sake of pure writing and expressing ideas.
