From Ye Zi's weibo:

Due to the success of Mo Yan, some have suggested that members of Mo
family should become leaders of the country and the party. Mo Ruan (Not
Soft) should be Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mo Pa (Not Afraid) should be
Minister of Defense, Mo Tan (Not Corrupt) should be Minister of Finance,
Mo Chou (Not Worried) should be the head of the International Taxation
Department, Mo Niu (No Cow /hard to translate) should be the head of
Organization Department of the Communist Party, Mo Chui (No Lie) should be
the head of Propaganda Department, Mo Sheng (No Birth) should be the
commissioner of Population and Family Planning Commission, Mo Du (No
Traffic Jam) should be the minister of Transport, Mo Yu (No Fool) should
be the minister of Education, Mo Jia (No Fake) should be the director of
News and Publication, Mo Zhang (No Inflation) should be the director of
