Life is like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind. I previously compiled a list of finance-related books, and today I saw a list of 16 books recommended by Dai Yusen, a partner at ZhenFund, for the New Year, including six autobiographies: *The Net, Agassi's Autobiography* *Boom* (The Bubble of Venture Capital) *Rethinking Entrepreneurship* *Because of Uniqueness* (Written by the founder of Pop Mart) *Source Code* (Bill Gates' first autobiography) *Huang Renxun: The Core of Nvidia* Recently, I finished reading *Hillbilly Elegy* by former US Vice President Vance. Today, some friends were having dinner at a Chinese restaurant in New York, and one friend mentioned that his mother is from Vance's hometown of Appalachian, which is nothing like the description in the book; it's a working-class region with many German immigrants. This book, about family background and social issues, has become a form of political capital, more like a novel. I've recently become fascinated with autobiographies and am looking forward to a book by Binance founder CZ.
