script:
      我刚刚有了微信，我会用了。我在微信里面也看到了很多莫言创作的，但不是我写的，非常好的作品。在北京有一次吃晚饭，有一个非常漂亮的优雅的一个女士就说“莫言老师，我要朗读一首你的诗歌献给你，《你若懂我该有多好》”她朗读得声情并茂，是吧。目光里边就是闪闪的含着泪光。我听了也很感动，是吧。后来他读完了，我就说如果是我写的该有多好。

translation: I only just downloaded Wechat, and I can use it now. I've seen a lot of nice works on Wechat credited to Moyan, but actually a lot of them weren't written by me. Once, I was at a dinner party in Beijing, during the dinner a very beautiful and elegant woman said to me ‘Moyan laoshi*,I will read one of your masterpieces for you—'It would be wonderful if you really understood me’ She reads with the full force of her emotions. I can see her eyes begin to well up with tears, and I was touched. When she finished reading, I said to her 'It would be wonderful if it was me that had written that'.

*here ‘laoshi’is not teacher,refers to respectful title for masters of their field*

01.莫言：网上很多莫言的文章，如果是我写的该多好Moyan :a lot of articles  online credited to Moyan, but actually a lot of them weren't written by me.

The Fox and the Crow is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 124 in the Perry Index. There are early Latin and Greek versions and the fable may even have been portrayed on an ancient Greek vase.[1] The story is used as a warning against listening to flattery.

In the fable a crow has found a piece of cheese and retired to a branch to eat it. A fox, wanting it for himself, flatters the crow, calling it beautiful and wondering whether its voice is as sweet to match. When it lets out a caw, the cheese falls and is devoured by the fox.
