Summary of Simu Liu's We Were Dreamers
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born in 1989 in China, to a working-class family that lacked the money or influence to travel abroad. I spent my first four and a half years with my father’s side of the family in Harbin, without my parents. I was named 思慕, meaning introspection or ideation. #2 The kitchen was a series of open flames, next to a sink made of blackish-brown concrete, surrounded by a jungle of exposed pipes. My grandparents didn’t get a refrigerator until after I was born, and they stored water in buckets. I didn’t need anything more. #3 The importance of keeping your word was explained to me by my yéye. I was too old to be acting out like that, so he took me shopping to Héxìnglù and made me promise not to throw any tantrums. #4 I was a happy child in Harbin, and I definitely did not speak about how difficult I may or may not have been for the ones tasked with taking care of me. Regardless of whether I threw a tantrum, pooped my pants or drank dirty fishbowl water, I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was loved unconditionally.

"This is a fascinating book. It will educate you. Schwartzel has done some extraordinary reporting." — The New York Times Book Review “In this highly entertaining but deeply disturbing book, Erich Schwartzel demonstrates the extent of our cultural thrall to China. His depiction of the craven characters, American and Chinese, who have enabled this situation represents a significant feat of investigative journalism. His narrative is about not merely the movie business, but the new world order.” —Andrew Solomon, author of Far from the Tree and The Noonday Demon An eye-opening and deeply reported narrative that details the surprising role of the movie business in the high-stakes contest ...
