Publishing in China ....

Is politically sensitive and is tightly regulated by the gov
-ernment. A publication must secure a "kanhao", or publicat-
ion number, before it is deemed legal and can be distributed
to the public. An eight-digit alpha numeric number that beg-
ins with the letters CN. It looks like CNxx-xxxx (where x is
a numeric digit). It's a bit like ISBN but not as elaborate.

Ms. Hu Shuli, formerly of Caijing, is now waiting for one.

Her latest publication, New Century News, is scheduled to be
hitting the news-stands by Jan. 4, 2010. Her backer, the pub
-lisher of the new magazine, is in Hainan Island - China In-
stitute for Reform and Development. Its 70+ staff, have been
working out of their office in Beijing.

In China, where there is no freedom of press, getting a kan-
hao is, in that vernacular of Californese, a big deal. It is
strictly controlled and limited. Getting one will surely put
all of hers and her publisher's connections to utmost test -
financial, social, political. If issued one, thing is almost
certain:

It will have a ginormous number of strings attached .... :)

PS: Happy New Year to all.

Under scenarios like this, could China produce that many top-notched
intellectuals domestically?

Only another rhetorical question ....

Can do justice in answering a rhetorical one. China has five
-thousand year history, the world's longest civilization and
one in four men on earth is a Chinese.

In that light, one is entitled, and has the right to wonder:

Why has there not been the Chinese Galileo, Newton, Einstein,
Darwin, Smith, Plato, Hume, Kant, Dante, Milton, Shakespeare,
Beethoven, Mozart, Handel, Rubens, Rembrandt, Picasso .... ?

And whence the Chinese Hollywood ....

That's an easy question to answer, Albert. China was and still is too
busy memorizing Confucius words and practicing 2,500 year-old thoughts
to focus on anything new.

That’s right. Confucianism has made a big comeback in China and your
Maoism dropped dead for 30 years. That's why Confucianism not Maoism
was celebrated in 2008 Beijing Olympics Games? Oh, I see, you Rusty
are too stupid to understand it, right?

The guy who invented gun powder was a Chinese but afterwards his
invention was not further used aside from making crackers.
