In Beijing, there is a man on the roadside of Houhai, sitting silently and concentrating on writing things on rice every day. His name is Zheng Liang.

He writes on well-rounded Thailand long-grain rice, which is the most suitable for rice writing, as it is comparatively rounder and bigger.

There are lots of foreigners hanging out in Houhai. They generally prefer English characters on the rice. They say it's absolutely amazing to write on such a tiny object like rice grain.
