CZ talks about his experience in prison: serving a sentence brings fear and pressure, and he will publish a new book about his life in prison

CZ admitted in an interview with Rug Radio that serving four months in prison in the United States was "extremely difficult and terrifying". Upon entering prison, he felt intense unease facing tattooed, noisy, and large-bodied inmates. His cellmate, who was serving a 30-year sentence for double murder, was still manageable to interact with. Due to his non-US citizenship, he was placed in a low-security prison and could not access the lowest security level facilities. CZ stated that the mental pressure was the most unbearable, especially his concern about potential sentence extension. This experience made him re-examine his life, emphasizing that "health is most important, followed by family, and then work". He also revealed that he will publish a new book about this experience.
