Autor

Li Chunying had been a studious student from the Beijing Foreign Trade Institute but had been assigned to work on board COSCO ocean-going ships. Just as Rose, Li's wife, said, all the years he had tried his level best tso shape and trim himself to become a round peg in a round whole instead of a square peg in a round hole in the unfamiliar environment. He had taught himself to become a second and chief officer from an interpreter and purser on ocean-going cargo ships. He loves people of all countries that he has set foot on. His biography has recorded the factuality he has seen with his own eyes of the various countries he visited.
