It's all about perspectives
Young people, see what's out there!
How you visulaize something si very important
Young people, you need a vision
I can give it to you
To elevate our political standing, first elevate our cultural standing
When times are difficult you spend money to live
now you spend money on getting a lifestyle
Why do people buy something
It's the design
It's a concept that's lacking in our country
If it wasn't for New York I dont think I would have the ideas that I have today
Reading these magazines thinking it would be great if China had its own
I waited 20 years for the right time to do it
China's entry toWTO means country being turned into a factory for the world
Unless
it establishes it own identity
It's all in the packaging of things
Why can't we pacage our own labels
why can't we have our own ideas?
China needs to see what's the best out there so people can move towards that
I didn't create this to leave it to other people to run
I am very hands-on
Money is a tool for me to pursue other things
You know waht I spend the most money on?
Books I have 70,000 of hem
I can fly to Paris for the opening of my show for one night and be back in Shanghai the next day
9:30 a.m.: It's meeting with different people
discussing general issues at work
p.m. private sessions to solve specific problems
evening: devoted to painting
My business and art side have a healthy relationship
without all the other exposure, my art will not grow
I am just passing a message to others that this is the way Chinese people should progress
I can't ossibly do everything well
i just dont want people to forget me
