Yang Fan Note Book - what is this?

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

Hi folks.

I've had good luck identifying mystery office items here before, for example in 2007:

Ok ATOT, what's this then?

I found this attached (via the magnet in the bottom of it) to my desk at work.

Once or twice while allowing the thing to attract to the metal desk and hit it with sufficient force, the small square in the transparent covered part of the top lit up orange.

Rubycon correctly identified it as a rave light

Well I've found a new item... far less mysterious though unfortunately

A co-worker of mine was cleaning out her office last week and found a "Yang Fan Note Book".
Knowing that I have kept some unusual objects that I've found around the office... like my 1969 Maintenance and Servicing of Vaporizers clipboard, she gave the "Note Book" to me.

So, the "Note Book" in question looks like this

I tried searching a bit just to see if there was any information about it, but didn't turn up anything. This afternoon she came by and said that she saw an article in a newspaper about someone with the name Yang Fan and thought of it again.

I figured I'd ask ATOT if they had any insight on the notebook or could translate the text from the back cover. It's probably just some lame notebook, but it would be fun to know how old it is or where it came from, etc.

Thanks!

The Yang Fan Note Book grants its user the ability to kill anyone whose face they have seen, by writing the victim's name in the notebook with a picture of the victim in his mind.

So should I be worried that there are used pages torn out of it?

Well that's less fun

As in "Here, come in to see some of our available ship models. Take a brochure and this Yang Fan Note Book while you consider your options"?
