"The book I'm writing now ('A Hundred-Year-Old Dream') is not just about an aspiration. Rather it tells the story of how China has gotten to where it is today, as well as my personal journey of seeking knowledge," said Xu Yuanchong, a prominent Chinese translator, when asked about the autobiography he's currently working on in an exclusive interview with CGTN. Officially turning 100 years old on Sunday, Xu has a young heart and remains committed to his pursuit of beauty and literature.
