信中，他拷问了中国的社会现实性悲剧：包括媒体、政府和公民。信的署名是CB小组，这当然与他们声称的行为艺术版解释吻合，校对转载如下：

Hi,
As you may have seen from other media reports, the blog was in fact the group of a work of artists and writers based in and around Shanghai, Moganshan Lu.
Currently the members are working on other projects. One is in Nanjing, where s/he owns an art gallery, one is in Japan, and one is in Australia. The last two members are somewhere on the mainland.
You will appreciate that we are not going to give out any specific details, least of all to the Chinese press. While I am sure you have integrity, you must know that for your superiors there is no such thing as an `anonymous‘ source. China does have the highest number of imprisoned journalist in the world, you know.
Frankly the fact that you even ask for my real name makes me wonder if you really are a journalist. Certainly, your email does not come from a company account.
We wrote the blog to investigate modern attitudes to race, sex, and politics. China claims that it is an open, modern society, that it has
freedom of speech, and that the `mistakes' of the past, such as the Cultural Revolution, belong to history only. The blog contained no forced sex, racism, or unjustifiable claims.
As you are a journalist, you can judge the reaction to the blog yourself, and form your own opinion as to what it says about modern China.
Best,
The CB team

你可能已经从其他媒体报道看到，这个blog就是一群活跃在上海莫干山路的艺术家和作家的作品。
目前，这些成员已经忙于其他项目。一个在南京的他／她的艺术画廊，一个在日本，另一个在澳大利亚。另外两个成员在大陆的其他地方。
你会庆幸我们没有把任何特别细节告透露出来，至少没有给中国的刊物。尽管我相信你的正直，你一定也知道对于你的上级，没有所谓“匿名”来源。你知道，中国投入监狱的记者的确是世界上最多的。
坦率的说，你问我真实姓名的这一事实让我怀疑你是不是真的记者。当然，你的email不是来自一个公司（单位）的帐号。
我们写这个Blog的目的是调查对于种族、性和政治的当代观点。中国声称她是开放、现代化的社会，这个现代化的社会具有言论之自由，所谓过去的“错误”，如文革，仅仅属于历史。这个blog不包含强制性（行为），种族主义或不正当的主张。
既然你是记者，你可以自行判断针对我们blog的反应，并对这个blog讲述的现代中国形成你自己的观点。
敬礼，
CB小组
