At that time arrival, at the university dormitories, where they can speak English, did not think North so international, I thought I would completely say the Chinese can be roll into the Chinese environment, but that time I realized that the Chinese There are many foreigners, after they knew I was a foreigner, can communicate in English, North inside without any difficulty. but my family is very worried that a large number of masks they send me back.
years: never speak Chinese to Chinese writer

Ka Kato A: Writing is the last, all languages have heard read and write, I was Japanese, Chinese characters will. then look at the newspapers, I basically can read about what to say. then reading, then listening, reading and oral and written, I learned six months to a year, with the basic skills I now almost, but that is nonsense, just saying. writing should have a logical, there must be a special kind of expression, they have to stand in the perspective of the Chinese people to write. for which the author can not self-satisfied , himself, must stand the perspective of readers, then I think, how not possible to write with Japan's color, how your own language localization, which is my own 05 years later to explore I slowly began to write, of course, this exercise should be a gradual process. write Chinese now feel more comfortable than to write in Japanese also.
Moderator: Are you from 2003 to now has been living in the north of the atmosphere, North is what you kind of feel?
Ka Kato A: North is the place where I learned life is also my understanding of China's place. I took the government scholarship, I will be holding the attitude of gratitude towards North. This five to six years is full of twists and turns of Sino-Japanese relations, and crisis period, so I often go with the driver with the Beijing University students to discuss some sensitive issues. In this process, I honed my language skills, but also to understand China's youth ideas.
