Mr. Jin Bo is a true "child whisperer"
Li Jingze, member of the party group, vice chairman and secretary of the Secretariat of the Chinese Writers Association, believes that "The Collection of Jin Bo Beiji" is a classic work full of childhood heart and a masterpiece of children's literature. In this work, Mr. Jin Bo has made the most perfect interpretation of the theme of "heaven, earth and man". He transcends age boundaries and breaks through the definition of childhood, writing innocence and beauty with beautiful, elegant, delicate and agile brushstrokes, so that children with different reading preferences can find deep emotional resonance in it.

His world is a world of animism.

Liu Guohui, former president of the Encyclopedia of China Publishing House and editor-in-chief of this book, said that Mr. Jin Bo is a pure children's literature writer and a professional poet. The principle of life adheres to truth, goodness and beauty; The principle of treating others insists on love and eternity; In today's society, this principle is rare, rare and precious, and the principle is the highest state of "and".
Project wonder, warmth, and love onto the weak

Mr. Jin Bo once took them to the lilac garden to look for five-petal cloves. Later, when he photographed the three-petal and eight-petal cloves he found to Mr. Jinbo, Mr. Jinbo was so surprised. From this, I think that children's literature is the literature of surprises and surprises, full of surprise discoveries, surprise searches, surprise thoughts and surprise memories. "Jin Bo Collection" through ingenious planning, unique art design, and ingenious content collection. Let us see Mr. Jin Bo's eternal childlike innocence and constant curiosity.

Mr. Jin Bo's works can sketch a poetic picture at any time, enter a kind of artistic conception. The work is full of rhythmic beauty, and the mind will jump with it.

Mr. Jinbo's words are as gentle as the moonlight, and he is full of love for all things in the world. Mr. Jin Bo writes about the sincere love from the heart of life and life, which is equal between life and life, and writes about the intimacy between children and nature that is so innocent and harmonious. Grandpa Jin Bo is also "Grandpa Moon".

Mr. Jin Bo projects his wonder, love, and warmth on everything in the world, especially the weak things, and projects his meticulous understanding and care for life and heart.
Back to "the true state of human life"
Qian Liqun, senior professor of the Department of Chinese at Peking University, said that "childishness" is not only nature, but also concentrates the essence of "human nature", and returning to childhood is to return to "the true state of human life". The nature of children to be one with nature, the nature of love (truth, goodness, beauty), the "freedom" behind the nature of curiosity, intuition, imagination and play, after development and improvement, should be able to become an important aspect of the ideal form of human survival and development in the future. Children's literature is not just a child's reading, but should be a direct future. Even in the age of artificial intelligence, there is still significant value in the discussion of returning to childhood. The purpose of "Kim Bo Betsu" is to evoke childhood, return to childhood, re-understand childhood, and enjoy childhood.
Wu Shulin, chairman of the Publishers Association of China, mentioned that the International Alliance for Academic Publishing officially issued a proposal to all member states in 2024 to make 2024 the first year of large-scale use of artificial intelligence. Publishers should therefore actively keep abreast of the use of new technologies. The complete set of "Jin Bo Betsu" uses nearly 3,000 illustrations, which not only improves efficiency, but also allows many readers to feel the tacit understanding of illustrations and words. Let the writer's creation be combined with the innovation of technology, take off with wings, and better disseminate knowledge.
Zhang Lu, former deputy director of the Children's Literature Committee of the China Writers Association, chairman of the Children's Working Committee of the China Film Association, and a writer of children's literature, mentioned that Mr. Jin Bo's prose and poetry gave him a very good feeling, like a natural sound, and a spirituality. When I saw "Kim Bo Betsu Collection", the binding and illustrations were very beautiful, and I later learned that it was an AI illustration. This made him feel very impressed that the level of illustration of AI surpassed that of too many painters and reached a certain level. In recent years, artificial intelligence has developed very rapidly, and it is also rapidly absorbing human wisdom. This makes this set of "special collections" very distinctive, and also highlights the intention of the publishing house.
Ma Guangfu, a literary critic, former director of the publishing department of the China Children's Center, and deputy director of the Children's Literature Founding Committee of the Beijing Writers Association, mentioned that when he saw "The Collection of Jin Bo Bei", his first reaction was that it was very exquisite. Mr. Jin Bo wrote the beauty of children's poems and children's prose poems, which are beautiful, and each poem is full of childlike beauty, spiritual beauty, literary beauty, poetry beauty, charm beauty, music beauty, and Chinese character beauty. Every poem in the book is a fine work, expressing the poet's world view of beauty, the beauty of life, and the idea of truth, goodness and beauty. We can feel the virtues of the world, the love of the world, and all the beauty of the world from the poems. The overall design of "The Collection of Kimbobets", the binding of the whole book, and the very beautiful illustrations allow readers to read poetry and look at beautiful pictures. The book series has the common characteristics of words and pictures, and can be seen as a new picture book. At the same time, there is a new understanding of the creation of artificial intelligence.
Children's literature writer Zhang Ling'er mentioned three "different things" in "Jin Bo Beiji". The first is a different kind of exquisiteness, the second is a different kind of intention, and the third is a different kind of value. According to the arrangement of "Heaven, Earth and People", the celestial album uses the color and blue of the sky, the earth album uses bright and mild yellow, the human album uses the green of life, and the harmony album uses the enthusiastic and unrestrained red. The use of AI technology makes books more readable and arouses children's empathy.
