In Shanghai, I met another key figure in China?s evolving free-speech landscape, Han Han. A teen heartthrob, novelist, race-car driver, and perhaps the most popular blogger in the world, Han plays a cat-and-mouse game with his censors. When he wants to write something especially provocative, he?ll post it in the middle of the night, or over a holiday weekend, when he figures that a personal censor who plays one-on-one defense goes off-duty. Sometimes Han?s posts get taken down right away, sometimes they?re removed later, and sometimes they?re deluged with negative comments he traces to officaldom. But with more than 500 million visits to date, Han?s blog is too popular to shut down. As he calibrates what he can get away with in relation to the government, the government calculates what it can get away with in relation to him. ?
