Matt is the main character of the book, as well as its author. The story is told from his point of view. The stories he tells are real events that have happened to him, though he admits to having edited them a little for dramatic effect, as well as playing around with the order in which events happened. 'Bao Mosi' is Matt's Chinese name, which is what he uses to introduce himself to a person when in China.
