Just read the MOE dialogue incident.
Just shows how some people never read a book besides school textbooks and they expect others to be the same.
I have lots of books and practically all the IDs would propose a small book cabinet when I mentioned I needed a book cabinet. When I mentioned I needed a full-wall book cabinet, an ID asked,”You got how many books? Need so big meh?”
I used to think that it’s a metaphor when people told me they have never touched a book after they left school, until I witnessed for myself someone who didn’t read a book for close to 2 decades. Such people really exist.
I bet NCM is one of them. That’s why he had meant the question as a sarcasm but was taken aback that there were people who do read.
