Zhao Puchu composed this mocking poem On Drawing Circles before asking for Hua Junwu's caricature. He wanted to criticize those good-for-nothing officials. Hua's caricature well depicted the buck-passing images in simple but thought-provoking brushwork. Zhao wrote this poem in 1980 at the age of seventy-four.
