F2F Class Notes (Tibo) [S]

It is a novel and it changed to be a TV and some very famous actors they made the TV and I’d like to read some traditional Chinese novels but I don’t have enough time so podcast is a useful way to let me have enough time

it is on a podcast platform but it used way like audiobook because they just read the book.

I can use the time when I am on the road. I cannot read the book when I was on the subway or taxi because it will make me to feel uncomfortable and I can do some other things.

When I was 20 I can read books on the car I can even play the game on my phone although the driver is very aggressive but now I cannot do that again.
the fashion trendy right now the girls only wear a small bag so I cannot bring a kindle but when I was on a business trip I will put the kindle in my luggage.
I saw a lot of people they read books in the subway in the European countries like Chicago or London. It is interesting because they will bring the paper book everywhere it is different between china. Chinese people they don’t like to bring the books. Is that maybe because/

most of them they are just watch TV or tik Tok but I don’t see anyone watch the video on the subway in foreign cities.
But I also know Tik Tok is popular in US and Canada.
Subway is the most important means of transport for Chinese people so we will waste most of our transport time on subway so we need to find something to do and when I took subway subway in US or London most of people they sit or stand and don’t do anything but in SH most people they had to do something. They cannot just stand there.

It is a novel and it was adapted to a TV program  and some very famous actors acted in the TV show and I want to read some traditional Chinese novels but I don’t have enough time so listening to a podcast is a useful/good way to let me have enough time / to save time / is time efficient
