Abstract
ABSTRACTAs a Jewish writer writing in German, who mainly lived in Prague, a European city, Franz Kafka has so deeply affected and shaped China’s contemporary culture in a manner beyond his expectations and imaginations. Besides, the large effect is fantastical to those who love and even are obsessed with Kafka. After all, it is exciting and gratifying. Kafka has an influence upon almost every field, such as literature, film, music, painting, media, touring, catering business, housing, furniture, decoration, wedding photography, women shoes, etc. From “Kafka in China” to “China’s Kafka” everywhere, he has become a pop cultural sign in China today: wherever you go, you would bump into Kafka abruptly.

Summary
If man has his or her free will, the existence of God becomes suspicious; if not, man loses the meaning of life. Man signs a compact with God and freely chooses to give up his freedom This is by no means what Kafka means. Kafka’s paradoxical way of thinking and expressing is no more unfamiliar to Chinese readers, even to the teenagers, and a citation from Kafka in the essay question of the National College Entrance Examination is logical
