Winning record

The novella Life Without Language won the novella award in the first Lu Xun Literature Award, and 1996 was selected as the outstanding novel award. This work describes the living conditions of a family of three, one blind (father), one deaf (son) and one mute (daughter-in-law). They can't hear, see or speak, live in a closed inner world, and communicate with each other in their unique way to make them happy. But the outside world has not given up the harm to them. When they gave birth to a healthy third generation, the first ballad that the third generation heard was actually a personal attack on their family, so a healthy person is no different from the blind and deaf. They are three people and one person.

Introduction of works

Unscrambling the Secret Zone —— On Eastern and Western Novels

This book is divided into two parts. The first part is a principled explanation of the creation of novels in the East and the West, and the second part is the masterpiece of novels in the East and the West, Classic Reading. The book puts forward eight "things that can't be ignored", with distinct views, novel ideas, fluent writing and appealing to both refined and popular tastes.

You have no idea how beautiful she is.

She married Niange in the Spring Festival of the year of the earthquake, that is, 1976. Brother Nian's surname is Bei, and his name is Bei Yunnian. He is our neighbor. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I was still dreaming in bed when he woke me up. He said, Chun Lei, let's pick up my sister-in-law. Simple marriage was popular at that time, and the simpler lifestyle was healthier.

Guess the ending

Liu Tie was suddenly called away. At that time, he sat on the sofa yawning frequently, and my son Tiequan and I held his head and pulled out white hair. I am worried that he has grown so much white hair when he is only 35 years old. I said that we have been writing for more than ten years, and the combined payment of the two is not as much as your white hair. He opened his mouth wide and said, why not the other way around? If every gray hair of mine is regarded as 10 thousand, how much do we have to pay for the manuscript?

Personality self-report

The alarm clock squeaks like a bug in the morning. I don't remember lying in bed, but a voice in my body has been urging me. If I don't get up, I'm afraid I will be late. Don't remember why you are so sleepy? As long as I reach out and grab a reason for being sleepy, such as writing, driving a tractor, reading, chatting, and drinking too much tea or coffee, I want to find a beautiful excuse when it turns white outside the window many times, just like Kafka's beetle. Who knows that I can't get up anymore, and I'm still making up reasons for being sick in order to keep a salary? As a person born in 1960s, I don't have a huge legacy, and I don't have the opportunity and courage to get rich in the sea. My salary is still an important guarantee for my life, so I have to get up quickly in the sound of an alarm clock for three days. The first thing after getting up is running. There was too much car exhaust on the road, so I had to buy a treadmill and put it on the balcony, running for 30 minutes every day. These 30 minutes are the guarantee that my body can keep working normally. I was born in 1966. At that time, my motherland was not as well-fed as it is now, and there was milk to drink every day. Because I was poor when I was a child, I was as weak as most people born in the 1960 s, so that I accidentally caught a cold and felt chest tightness after working overtime continuously, so running became my daily necessity. After running, I brush my teeth, wash my face, get dressed, have breakfast, go to work and work, just like everyone who was not born in the 1960s. During work breaks, I will go to the toilet once or twice and answer a phone call or two, but the topics discussed on the phone have become more and more serious and practical with my age. In this way, it will be noon soon. I will fill my stomach casually in the canteen or fast food restaurant, take a nap in bed, replenish my strength and start my afternoon work again. If you are lucky, you will be invited to dinner at night. In order to enliven the atmosphere at the dinner table, you will desperately search for the jokes you heard from other tables in your memory and then resell them to prove that you are well-informed and knowledgeable. Inevitably, when there is nothing to say, I will have a drink and chat again, go home for a while, symbolically ask the children's homework, think that there are still many things to do, I will be upset, and I will hurry to remedy it at my desk and regret wasting a lot of time at the dinner table. If there is nothing urgent, just pick up a book or newspaper or turn on the TV to learn about the world, sometimes find some good DVDs to watch, and send an email or two to distant literary friends when necessary. Scientists tell me that after the age of 30, people's body and memory are going downhill. Out of concern for this assertion and fact, I drink a glass of milk every night before going to bed. It seems that only in this way can we make up for the shortage of milk in the past and make our memory decline less quickly. If you look in the mirror at night, you will find some white hair on your forehead. Is this the "1960s"? Many people say that they are still young.

You can't say the day is over. Some people have a dream or two after sleeping. I flew in my dream and saw1one afternoon in the spring of 966, my 46-year-old mother gave birth to me with difficulty. This is her last birth and the only boy she gave birth to. Joy hung on her tired face, and relatives rushed to tell each other. My second aunt stayed up all night after learning the news. She kept telling her cousin in the middle of the night, this is great, this is great, and the happiness is no less than winning the grand prize. If menstruation can still see this exciting person's 24-hour life, I wonder if she will regret the excitement of that year?

Literary viewpoint

Literature and life

Things: Literature plays an irreplaceable role in human beings.

"In the past, I thought it was extravagant to talk about Shenzhen's literature by clicking on the weather forecast of Shenzhen and more cities, but seeing so many Shenzhen people coming for literature, my anxiety was much less."

On the afternoon of September 15, 2007, the famous writer Dongxi visited the Shenzhen Civic Culture Lecture Hall and gave a wonderful lecture entitled "Literature and Life" for Shenzhen citizens.

Peeling "literary onions" for Shenzhen people

At the beginning of the lecture, things joked that he was neither a star nor a fast man, so his privacy and stories may not be really felt by everyone.

Interest, but his own understanding of literature over the years, but really want to share with Shenzhen people, he felt that this lecture is to give Shenzhen people "stripping their own literary journey."

Onions. "

It is said that everyone's life is under great pressure now, and it is difficult for someone to spend an afternoon sitting at a desk quietly reading a small book.

Go ahead. Although the current reading environment is very severe, he believes that literature brings us the spiritual pleasure of life, which is also electricity.

Video and the internet can't achieve it.

Life is actually imitating literature.

As a writer, things often know the world from the perspective of literature. In his view, literature is not what people think, but an ornament in life. For example, after the "9. 1 1" incident, he saw a news that an American company made a basement product made of steel plates. Rich people bought it. With this basement, if there is a terrorist attack, you can hide underground for three days. There is electricity and water. This product is very popular. Things said, watching the news, he suddenly remembered that Kafka actually wrote this fear in the novel Cave decades ago, which is the greatness of the novel.

Things think that while reading these literary works, we are also expanding our horizons of understanding the world. Literature is not imitating life. On the contrary, life often imitates literature. From 65438 to 0996, the novel Life Without Language became a turning point in the literary career of the East and the West. This novel not only won the first Lu Xun Literature Award, but also was made into a film and won the grand prize at the Tokyo Film Festival. When writing this novel, he didn't want to repeat the previous description of the disabled, so he tied the fate of three protagonists with organ disabilities together. The novel "Wu-wei" reflects a state of our life today-invisible, unspeakable and inaudible. When the characters in the novel have a hard communication through each other's healthy organs, this kind of communication actually puts a lot of philosophy into their lives. This novel is about a problem: in a seemingly colorful world, we live without communication.

Good works should "torture" readers.

People like to read works beyond imagination. If you know the ending from the beginning, who likes to read such literary works? Things jokingly said, "I once put forward a point, that is, don't torture our protagonist when writing. Good works should' torture' readers, but to do this, it is necessary to test the writer's imagination. " Just like Flaubert wrote about Madame Bovary's suicide, you can feel the smell of arsenic in your mouth. So a writer's rich imagination is what he is most proud of.

Things also believe that literature plays an irreplaceable role in human beings. Like a drizzle, it slowly moistens people's hearts and lets beautiful language be passed down from generation to generation. The thing goes like this: "When we are increasingly unable to find words to express our feelings, we will quietly read literary works and let them enrich our lives and emotions."
