“When people use buzzwords they have fun knowing everyone using them will know their meanings”. Ding Xin feels that internet language will create dissimilation problems. “Some words are deconstructed and inserted into today’s conversations which essentially “pollutes” the original semantics of Chinese, but this may also be driven by popular cultural trends”.

She's really different! She has a cybernetic body, but she's kept her human emotions. In the world of the future, photo-electronics, nano-tech, mechanization, biology, networks and artificial intelligence are really developed. People's bodies and even their brains can be replaced with electronic and mechanical organs. You can get on the wireless networks anytime and anywhere, and get into anything from the biggest social organizations to an individual human. This has created all kinds of new crimes based on the networks.
