I’m asked about my opinion on the prospect of future of China, which I think is a public topic rather than a private topic, so I am posting my reply here for everyone to see:
有人问我怎么看日后中国的民主化发展，我认为这样的问题属于公共问题，不应当以私聊形式出现。所以，我把我的答案放到公共平台上来：
这个完全要看中国人会不会行动起来。你应该可以看到我在努力，但是，这必须是很多人团结起来一起努力。人民的力量绝对比拥有国家机器的力量大百倍千倍，但你如果看孙子兵法的各个击破，就可以知道国家力量虽弱于人民力量，但只要人民不动起来，国家力量就总是占绝对优势。所以，不是预测的问题，而是人民有没有信心和意愿的问题。
Basically, my answer to this question is: The future of China lies in the hands of Chinese people, whether they will rise up to actions, as you may observe my efforts in this regard, but it has to be coordinated efforts of many people in great unity. People’s power collectively overwhelms the government’s force by hundreds of times, however, if you have learned the ploy of custodial policy to prevent people from unionization from Suntzu’s Strategies of War, you will know that even though people collectively make way stronger power than the government’s force, as long as people are not mobilized, the state power is always the dominating force amongst everything. Therefore, it’s not a matter of prediction but whether people have the confidence and resolve to rise up.
