As you probably know, we are always fond of certain proverbs. Whoever asks a question is stupid for 5 minutes, whoever doesn’t ask is stupid all his life.

Chinese proverb that delights the interviewer that I am, since I have a bag full of questions about a sinologist, Lun Zhang, professor of Chinese Studies at the University of Cergy-Paris who, in his first life, had the audacity to question the Chinese dictatorship. When he looks in the mirror today, he is still this magnificent activist of the pro-democracy movement in Tiananmen Square in 1989, a fight he will continue in Hong Kong, the island of refuge that has become one of the stages of his exile. Epic, heroic, painful story told through two poignant comics, published by Delcourt TianAnMen 1989 Our shattered hopes et Hong Kong revolutions of our time.
