[Meeting the Intellectuals in the Spring Hills] Liaozhai and Chat—Why We Chat?

Edward Lam: "Starting from nothing, the theatre shows are brought to the world stage one after another. One day, you may even be convinced that you can be another Sherlock Holmes."

For this time, he will lead us through an exploration of the heart on thoughts about this world, on the confusions about the times, on one's own self-expectation and on the answers we have been long searching for.
