"two boats return to the border at night, lonely clouds and weary birds fly back. the moon is bright at night by the bridge in wuzhen, and i still wake up to see the mountains in my dreams." on the day of the wuzhen event, he released a song on his own platform, composed music for the poem in the ming dynasty history book, and sang it freely with a ukulele.
