last Sunday,
Commissioner Yan
invited me to his home.
He told me a story.
It was about
an ancient minister
who worked tirelessly to help his king
day and night.
Yet he was considered too diligent,
suspected of overstepping his authority.
Not only was he not promoted,
he was demoted
and exiled.
Don't you think
Commissioner Yan's story
is truly sigh-inducing, right?
Commissioner Yan still enjoys
discussing history with young people.
Sir,
I'm here
to
communicate with you
frankly,
so as to help you understand me better
and eliminate any prejudice
or bias you might have.
Please
give me this chance.
You say you want to communicate
frankly with me,
and to have an open dialogue.
