The words in Gossips on the Sea are the collection of the random thoughts pf Chen Xueyong and Gunong. Almost all of them are published on a magazine called Shanghai. Both of the two writers have their individual way of writing, but they have something in common in pursuing the vividness of the writing. They all get rid of the direct way of expressing, but try to open up a new way to pass down and reform the national tradition. Except from criticizing the social problems, they sneer the corrupt customs in reality, which can benefit the general spirit of the society and the spirit of the people. Gossips on the Sea contains Dear Leaders, After the Disloyalty of the Chief of the Bureau, The Change of the Mind for longing for Death, Thinking of the Rational Numbers of Chen Jingrun and so on.
