Fang Xiang

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world.  Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice.  The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos –  human and nonhuman –  into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more.  Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Bu Qiangdong was glad to hear that. He admired Chen Mu's power to the point of adulation, never believing there was anything the boss couldn't do. He had only been afraid the boss wouldn't want to do it, in which case there would be nothing he could do. He knew how important the opportunity was for Heaven's Wings. Provided they succeeded this time, Heaven's Wings' reputation would rise to unprecedented levels.

When the time came, never mind Pomelo; they would also get a reputation in the entire Ming Zheng District. It was not easy for a fantasy card advertising company that wanted to achieve that, and even the biggest fantasy card advertising firm in Pomelo, Easy Sailing, wouldn't have any way to accomplish such heights.

After closing his apparatus, Chen Mu turned around to Lu Xiaoru and said, "Tell me about the Central Island Firm."
