This is one of Shujun LI's working tools and also a great hobby. Go there for more details about this great typesetting system.Scientific and Professional Ethics
Shujun LI is strongly interested in all issues about scientific and professional ethics, especially those about China and Chinese researchers. Welcome to visit the most famous web site on this topics in Chinese society all over the world: New Thread (新语丝) (in Chinese). The following are his articles published in New Thread (新语丝). You can also see a list of these articles by clicking this link and this link.Chinese Classic Literature
The favorite Chinese classic literature of Shujun LI is The Dream of the Red Chamber (also called A Dream of Red Mansions, The Story of the Stone or Chronicles of the Stone, in Chinese which is titled 红楼梦 or 石头记) written by CAO Xueqin (曹雪芹) (also known as Hsueh-Chin Tsao), who is the most famous novelist in Qing Dynasty of China. Xueqin Cao didn't seem to finish all the scheduled 120 chapters before his death, so only about 80 chapters were kept by his friends and then spread all over the country. Many years after Cao's death, another two Chinese novelists GAO E (高鹗) and CHENG Weiyuan (程伟元) supplemented the 40 missing chapters and finished a whole story. Since then a lot of critics claimed that Gao and Cheng did a very bad job, mainly because they believed that some original plots of Cao for this novel were completely changed.Electronic copies for free download: 一百二十回本红楼梦(上, 下) 脂砚斋重评石头记
Entertainment
Computer Games: Shujun LI is not a real game fan, but he was used to be very fond of two wonderful games: 1) PAL (仙剑奇侠传 in Chinese, currently it has evolved into a 4th edition with completely different characters and plots), developed by the Softstar Company (大宇资讯 in Chinese); 2) NFS (Need for Speed, 极品飞车 in Chinese), developed by the Electronic Arts Inc. (电子艺界 in Chinese). The two fastest replays of Shujun LI in NFS V are as follows (driving the factory car '98 911 GT1 race version on Autobahn, with keyboard control and automatic gear-box): 2.17'09 seconds and 2.17'18 seconds.Movies and Cartoons: Shujun LI likes to collect classic movies and TV plays, especially good cartoons. His favarite cartoon is Macross (超时空要塞)/Robotech (太空堡垒), which was originally produced by Japanese in 1980s (called Macross), and then revised by American and Japanese (renamed to be Robotech) in late 1980s by adding another two cartoons as sequels of Macross. So, in fact Robotech I is named Macross SAGA that is exactly the Japanese Macross (except that the names of most characters were changed), and Robotech II and III actually have nothing to do with Macross at all. There are also some other sequels of Macross/Robotech made by Japanese and American, but they are not as famous as the original cartoons. The three main characters in Robotech I are: Rick Hunter (一条辉 in Japanese Macross), Lynn Minmei (林明美 in Japanese Macross), Lisa Hayes (早濑未沙 in Japanese Macross).
