Replenish fish tank

Wang Shuo, 1958, a native of Xiuyan County, Liaoning Province. Up to now, Wang Shuo doesn't want to say that he is from Beijing. On the contrary, he confidently said "I am from the Northeast". Shortly after his birth, he followed his parents and settled in a military compound in the suburbs of Beijing. In the compound where he lives, there are people with lofty ideals from all over the country, except Beijingers. Wang Shuo's understanding is that perhaps few people took part in the revolution in Beijing at that time. As a little boy, Wang Shuo didn't know that there were residents in the city, thinking that there were parks besides shopping malls.

No wonder he has only been to Xidan in Beijing, and his knowledge can be imagined. After entering middle school, Wang Shuo moved into the city, at the foot of Chaoyangmen, and had direct communication with the language in Beijing. Before that, he knew little about Beijing culture, and the language in Beijing was strange to him. It can be seen that Wang Shuo's language today has nothing to do with "old Beijing". Old Beijing is a unique language formed after communicating with Beijing language and can only be regarded as one of the new Beijing cultures.

"Teasing" is the biggest feature of Wang Shuo's language. And ridicule itself is a language form that is neither hard nor soft. This language form is regarded as a weapon rather than a tool by Wang Shuo. As an ordinary person, when I was a child, I was not respected but was constantly violated. Street hooligans, serious teachers and overbearing parents can all be aggressive. You can't fight back against this aggression. But you must also take self-protection measures. Wang Shuo's choice of ridicule can not only resolve the insult caused by the other party, but also safeguard his dignity. It should be said that the formation of this ridicule is natural, and it is not the patent of local ruffians and hooligans. However, due to this ridicule, people who think they are decent are mercilessly ridiculed, so one kind of self-esteem competes with another, and Wang Shuo becomes a "rogue" in the eyes of people wearing cultural coats. An instinctive resistance, a trick similar to children's pranks, has made adults angry.

Someone asked Wang Shuo, "What is the purpose of your writing?" "For fame and fortune, of course." Wang Shuo replied. As far as writing itself is concerned, Wang Shuo is a writer, but he is not the kind of writer designed in people's minds: great personality, perfect morality and civilized behavior, a model of mankind and an engineer of the soul. He is not that tall. Nevertheless, his contribution to literature cannot be ignored. He wrote about people on the edge of society. In the past, idleness was not allowed in society, and everyone's social status was very clear. Since the new era, due to the improvement of political life and the relaxation of social atmosphere in China, the division of occupations is not as simple as "workers, peasants and soldiers" and "intellectuals", and many people live on the edge of society. In the past, the middle class in China was attached to the power class and was composed of people from the government, the army and officials. Before the reform and opening up, these people had a strong sense of superiority in politics and their economic situation was above average. After the reform and opening up, this class gradually disintegrated. Many of them have a great sense of loss, their sense of economic superiority has been replaced by private ones, and their sense of political superiority is vague. They are unwilling to engage in manual labor and have little education. Their social status has changed greatly, and they are no longer the best among young people. The promotion of social status is directly proportional to their knowledge. At the beginning, it was a small trader who bent down to lift his spirits. Now, educated and capable people are very proud. Every writer can't write about all kinds of people in society, only familiar people. Just as some people are familiar with farmers and intellectuals, Wang Shuo's understanding of "marginal people" makes his works all about this group of people.

My mother is a doctor and my father is a faculty member of the PLA Political College. Although he is not a scholar, his family is well-off, and he is a typical Beijing citizen family (this background is of great benefit to the description of ordinary life in Beijing in his later works). When Wang Shuo was young, he lived in a military compound. What the children do every day is just group fighting, but that free day left a deep impression on Wang Shuo. His later novella Beast (once adapted into the film Sunny Days) was written about the feelings at that time. Wang Shuo studied in Shaoshan Middle School when he was a teenager. He is not a stubborn student at school. He even took part in the "April 5" incident of 1976 with the belief that every man has a responsibility. Although he was not a mighty and unyielding hero, he was also imprisoned for three months.

1in the summer of 976, Wang Shuo went to Shandong to join the army after graduating from high school. As he described in Beast, he longed for war and wanted to be a hero. However, he did not become a man of the hour in the army. He is just an ordinary "helmsman", a health worker and even a chef. 1978 when the university resumed enrollment, Wang Shuo had the desire to apply for liberal arts, so he began to practice writing. During this period, he accidentally contributed to the "People's Liberation Army Literature and Art" and was selected. This is his first novel, the short story Waiting. Waiting is a novel with a strong sense of the times and quite childish, and its writing is still very student-like. However, when the Gang of Four was just smashed in 1978, it was undoubtedly fresh and gratifying, and its popularity clearly showed Wang Shuo's creative potential.

Since then, Wang Shuo has written several works on military themes, but the response is not great. In the meantime, he tried to do business, but it seems that the timing is not good. Not only did I not make any money, but I also experienced many feelings of being cheated. This experience of making money was later recorded in Rubber Man (adapted into the film Panting) and Xu Ye.

When his business failed, he began to create in idleness again. The merchant's perspective let him know what is suitable for sale, so he chose this mysterious "flight attendant" as his description object, which really hit it off in the contemporary era.

He said: "Physical development coincides with three years of natural disasters, and when I was educated, I caught up with the Cultural Revolution. The so-called global malnutrition. He has no skills, only knows about three or five thousand words. It is the kind of person who has ambition and no talent, and should be a stone under others' feet. It is also that life should not be doomed, and social change is difficult and difficult. In order to make the future world stand in a cone, like a pond, dance and write. ]

Born in 1958, 1976, graduated from Beijing No.44 Middle School, and later joined the North Sea Fleet of the Chinese People's Navy as a health worker. 1980 returned to Beijing after leaving the army and worked as a salesman in the drug wholesale store of Beijing pharmaceutical company. He resigned on 1983 to make a living by writing. 1978 started writing literature. Since 1984, when his first novella "Flight Attendant" was published in the contemporary era, he has created 22 novellas and 3 novels, with about1600,000 words, and created dozens of TV dramas. 1997 65438+ 10 went to America in October. 65438+/kloc-0 returned to China in July, 1997, and engaged in freelance writing.

In the 1990s, he became a rogue writer with domineering words. He told me that I was a rogue, and I was afraid of who. He was as straight as a blow and tore off the so-called lofty veil. Next, almost all the media participated in this heated debate. In addition, with the success of TV adaptation such as Desire, Story of Editorial Department, Love You Without Consultation and Addiction, Wang Shuo has really spread all over the country.

As the frequency of publishing books decreased, Wang Shuo began to be somewhat silent. "It looks beautiful" and "Beauty gives me antiperspirant" seem to be a little tired by Jiang Lang. What really caught the media's attention again was his essay "Ignorance is Fearless", which listed Jin Yonghe as the "four major customs", thus causing a large-scale debate between Jin and Wang. Different from the past, the participation of the Internet made this debate escalate rapidly and become heated, but nothing happened.

Recently, a new book "My Chitose Cold" was published, which included six articles. There has been a new breakthrough in language, especially the opening "My Chitose Cold", which is concise and poetic, and endowed with tenses. The last Outline of Materialism is about the universe and matter. Although there are some common-sense mistakes, the language still has Wang Shuo's domineering.
