I understand basketball is not my entire life. It's only a part of my life. And there are a lot of other things that interest me a great deal ... other goals to seek, and this is how I have balance in life.

To me, first and foremost, basketball is a fun sport. It is a hobby, an interest. And second, it is a profession. I feel that I am very fortunate that I can find a professional job that I really, really love.

Putting our ecosystem in great peril is certainly not a part of Chinese culture that I know.

I am a basketball player, and I would like to focus my energy on basketball. The other things, I would rather not do. It is not something I am greatly interested in, but I know it is my responsibility.

The Olympic Games is holy. Athletes from around the world, including myself, of course, dream to participate.

If we buy ivory it makes all of us killers as well.

I'm just one of the 1.3 billion Chinese.
