The professor used relatable real-life examples to illustrate the distortion inherent in literature, while also sharing some of his own professional experiences. For most Chinese literature students, the question of what career path to choose after graduation is one frequently raised by elders and friends. Yet through the professor's insights, we came to realize that the first step is actually discovering the allure of words themselves. The professor shared that his ideal was for his works to be remembered by the public, while he himself remained forgotten. Yet now, with technological advancements, he felt he might need to adjust his mindset. He observed that in this era of rapid technological change, with ever-evolving social media platforms, his articles were frequently reposted without proper attribution. This is indeed a matter for reflection in our current times.
