When Gu Weijing was searching for information about the Little Prince, he came across such a story on Google.
It is said that,
the great playwright Shaw, at the age of 91, bedridden in a nursing home in Dublin, read "The Little Prince" for the first time and was immediately moved to tears.
The old man suddenly burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably.
"This book contains an entire philosophical system," said the 1925 Nobel Prize in Literature winner to a friend. "With a subtle melancholy, it's unbelievably beautiful and moves one to tears."
Gu Weijing wondered if perhaps his own cultural cultivation was too lacking, which is why he couldn't comprehend the mindset of such a great writer.
At least,
when he read "The Little Prince," he really never felt like crying, unlike those sentimental young women on the internet.
Even when Mr. Tree Sloth got the most engaged while reading.
