"His book is all about the big events that took place in Chinese society in recent years, and it leads readers like me to achieve a deeper understanding about these issues and also deal with it with a more objective attitude, rather than a sheer outrage towards social unfairness. His articles would guide readers to discover the reasons behind all these happenings."
Leung was born into a Catholic family in Hong Kong in 1970, with his ancestral home in Shunde, Guangdong. Leung was raised in Taiwan.
In 1999, Leung joined Phoenix Television and co-hosted a talk show called Kengqiang Sanrenxing with Dou Wentao since that year. Though labeled as a media veteran and critic, Leung never thinks his book is sharp or sarcastic but expresses a neutral attitude.
"Some people think I am so critical in my book Key Words. In fact, what I intend to convey through this book is discovering the changes in modern Chinese society and depicting it using those nowadays popular expressions."
In addition to this latest commentary collection, the author has previously published two other books titled: Common Sense and Atma Graha.
