Once we want to waste money, the beasts of desire in our chests are awakened, they yell and stamp their feet, trying to control our mind. Deng: “I wanted to be more vivid. I just wanted to stress again that our desire, the importance of controlling that kind of desire. Because what I wanted to say was that desire was like a dreadful monster. If it were awakened, you would be out of control”.
There is a common view in China saying that the three carriages of the economy are consumption, export, and investment. […] we should pay a lot attention to consumption and rationally spend more so that our economy can have a sustainable and powerful driving force. Wang: “What I was thinking at that moment is that, first, the topic is economy and spending, and then I came up with the same Chinese expression that I learned in senior high school so I translate the ‘马车’ into ‘carriages.’ The three carriages are equal to the driving power of economic development. […] I wanted to echo the earlier expression “three carriages,” so I wrote ‘powerful driving force,’ which means the drive that can lead to economic development”.
Basically, love is the invisible power. It has the driving force which can encourage people to achieve some goals. […] love is like the petrol to a car, the battery to a player. Li Y.: “It was, when I was using English to express myself, I worried that the readership might not understand my intended meaning. Maybe there was some of my own subjective understanding in it. I just wanted to mean that love is a strength that can move things forward, just like the function of petrol to a car and the batteries in a player. The strength was dominating because it could make you alive and give you energy, and make you operate and work. This is what I was thinking”.
Pursuing romantic love is the instinct of human, just like hungry people find food. […] the romantic love, just like desert [dessert], can make the hearts warm and happy. Guo: “Here I just want to make it clear that love is positive. It is normal and common, with no negative side. […] Love is sweet. When thinking about sweety, it is easy for me to link with desserts”.
