This book delves into the historical context surrounding the Cold War, specifically exploring the world of Chinese language systems in Singapore and Malaysia. It sheds light on the overlooked Chinese film culture of early Singapore and Malaysia, examining how Chinese filmmakers responded to ideological shifts before and after the Cold War through anti-imperialist and anti-colonial discourses. Through the analysis of decrypted files from British and American colonial governments, as well as anti-communist films, and the comprehensive collection of early Chinese and English newspapers and periodicals on film culture, this book explores the role of the Chinese community in the Cold War. It not only uncovers the forgotten memory of "Chinese" and "Chinese films" in Singapore and Malaysia but also reflects on cultural production, local consciousness, national identity, and the complexities of Chinese identity from a mass communication perspective.

Social interaction refers to the interaction between people; Chidu is the old name for letters. This book is written by Mr. Tan Zhengbi, a modern Chinese popular literature researcher.

Each category has one outgoing letter and one reply letter, paired together, with brief notes and vernacular translations, which are clear and concise, and can be regarded as a tool book for the format of daily letters in the old days.

Are you tired? Where is the promised happiness? ""Original Love"" spans twelve volumes, delving deeply into the complexities of love. Despite this, people continue to encounter obstacles and frequent heartbreak in their pursuit of love. What lessons has love taught us? What wisdom have we gained from it? Perhaps it's due to repeated disappointments from those close to them, or the weariness stemming from an unending cycle, or maybe it's the dwindling hope after waiting for too long that has turned into despair. Regardless of their efforts, optimism, and positivity, the outcomes remain unsatisfactory. Happiness seems to evade them, and luck appears to favor others. Consequently, they have lost patience, grown weary of love, and even sworn off believing in it, vowing not to pursue it in the future.
