I'm an astronomer. I grew up in Lanxi, Zhejiang Province, China. My interests focus on exploring the physics and phenomenology of quasars through multi-wavelength and multi-epoch variability with modern surveys. To be an astronomer could be a dream of many lads, and I am lucky. I love my job very much. I am also an astrophile and astronomy photographer. When I am not looking at the stars, I like hiking. Conquer 14 of the world's 8000-meter peaks is always a dream of my next life ...
