Personal life

He used to be a young man in the countryside. When he grew up, he worked as a soldier and a worker. Later, he became an excellent writer. His works were controversial, and almost every new work would cause an uproar. He is a rare "heavyweight" writer in today's literary world. His works not only won many awards, but also are well-known. He has a very good reputation His face was once nicknamed "No.1 evil god". However, his seemingly cold appearance hides a kind and upright heart. He is straightforward and sharp, and he depicts a different sky with his own brush strokes and life. He is the legendary writer Jiang Zilong. Writers are the brains of society and the wise men of the times.

Jiang Zilong's works are highly refined because of his special age and special experience. In his short stories and novellas, he concentrates rich life content and complex conflicts. He is good at grasping the main contradiction and the key of the problem, so as to carry out it compactly, with proper details and rigorous structure. He is also good at grasping the most representative character of the characters. Jiang Zilong is a brilliant storyteller with tortuous plot, novel conception, meticulous structure and unique language. The multi-level artistic structure in his works enables readers to appreciate the theme and resonate with each other. The purpose is to arouse readers' spiritual awakening, rather than to deceive readers by whitewashing peace.

In his early works, Jiang Zilong devoted himself to shaping the reformer's image. With his bold and vigorous style, he expressed the reformers' individual psychology, mental outlook and their lamentable struggle for modernization construction with great appeal. Qiao Guangpu, Che pengkuan, Niu Hong, Wu Gengxin and other powerful figures occupy an important position in his novel world.

Starting from Yin cuoyang Cha, Jiang Zilong put his thinking viewpoint into the collision of character and history and culture, trying to show people's psychological mystery from the realistic social relations, thus depicting a three-dimensional panoramic society, showing a strong intention of criticism, and his writing is more and more calm and spicy.

Jiang Zilong's "Stinky and hard" character is well-known in the literary world, and his chivalry is also one of the few in the literary world. When he had a few glasses of old wine, and raised his neck and chest to talk about heroes with his brothers, he would occasionally boast about the "beauties" present. To catch up with "I" and other "rough" women who don't know how to praise them, they will say, "I used to be a beauty, but now I have to add" Twilight ". Although you can be called a hero," I "also have to add" past breath. " At this time, Lao Jiang would put on a good posture of fighting between men and women, and raised his arms and raised his glass: "come on, let's drink to the late beauty!" And then a rare smile, laugh very heroic, very infectious, that kind of "heroic spirit" is reflected in the laughter incisively and vividly.

Jiang Zilong is very popular. Along with him, whenever we go to any place, cultural officials from all over the province, city and county recognize him. They all agree that we grew up reading your works. Some of them Retell some chapters, some listed a list of works, some brought Jiang Zilong's works for his signature, and some asked for a group photo. But no matter how well Jiang Zilong felt on such occasions, his face was still "serious". Therefore, many people who meet Jiang Zilong for the first time think that he is not easy to get close to. The appearance of "serious" is innate, and the texture of his face has nothing to do with his mood. This face is a "natural disaster". It takes courage to get close to him.

Jiang Zilong is not a person who can "adapt to the situation". He is sure to be strong when he is forced to do something. But he can run around and do his best for the sake of his friends who are hard to refuse. There was a seminar where "I" happened to sit next to Jiang Zilong, listening to the commentators' rummaging out some insincere and embarrassed speeches. Jiang Zilong said to me: aren't you Hu? It seems that you have to make up a story about this meeting.

At the meeting, the host invited Jiang Zilong to speak several times, and "I" gloated on one side: Lao Jiang, you are also vice chairman of the Chinese writers' Association. The speech of this kind of meeting depends on the level! Jiang Zilong, with no expression on his face, wrote a note and handed it to me: "I seldom attend such meetings. It's a waste of my life to accompany others on their birthdays. If you see me at such a meeting next time, I'll treat you to dinner. This is the basis. " Jiang Zilong took off his glasses and wrote a note. He put on his glasses and spoke with sincerity and sincerity, without flattery. "I" from his carefully worded words, in addition to finding the reporting angle of this meeting, but also a sudden increase of respect for him.

Jiang Zilong is the kind of person who can make fun of relaxation and create happiness. Especially when acquaintances get together, they are free. Once when we looked at fingerprints and said palms, Jiang Zilong's hand was pulled back and forth. Everyone who had seen it frowned, but no matter how good their eyesight was, the final conclusion was that there were ten dustpans, none of them. Everyone says it's a different face! Flatter him: every appearance must be a genius! Lao Jiang recaptured his east hand and West hand from the people's hands. He said with regret, "if you don't fight, you don't fight. Your two little thumbs are not straight."

Then he studied his palms with interest: "when I was a soldier, I used to grind my gun hard. When I was a worker, I used to paste oil mud for a long time. Later, I knocked on the keyboard every day and rubbed it much more. For decades, I couldn't swim every day." What's the internal relationship between the texture on Jiang Zilong's hand and the texture on his face? It's really unknown that his parents gave him. Shakespeare has a line like this: cold hands, warm heart. Apply to Jiang Zilong: "cold" face, "hot" heart. He went to Shenyang in the cold winter to "sign books" for a little brother. It's true that he is chivalrous, righteous and warm-hearted.

In the middle of winter, the temperature in Shenyang has reached more than ten degrees below zero centigrade. A friend sent a message to tell him that he had opened a small bookstore and wanted to invite him to engage in "book signing". He rushed to Shenyang overnight and got off the train in the middle of the night. Before the people who met him got out of the warm blanket, he had to walk in the waiting room until dawn. In the morning, I arranged to have a dialogue with college students in a university. I didn't finish talking at 12 noon, and I began to sell books at 1 pm. I was so nervous that I didn't even arrange the time for dinner.

When I got to the small bookstore, it was already full of people, and the brand-new counter went back. Little boss brother embarrassed to Jiang Zilong said: "teacher, you go outside to sign line?"? I'll get you a table. Don't crush the new counter This "great Xia Jiang" Zilong, with a "chivalrous" on the street. When it was dark and the hands were stiff, I realized: "good boy, I'm not as valuable as a counter!" What he should have said and what he should have scolded, Jiang Zilong left Shenyang in a hurry, but he left an eternal warmth to his friends. Since then, small bookstores have been booming day by day.

It can be concluded that as long as we can break through Jiang Zilong's "serious" defense line, we can feel his warmth. In fact, he is humorous, amiable and warm-hearted.

An interesting story about Jiang Zilong: at a reception of Chinese and American writers in Los Angeles, the American poet Ginsberg asked Chinese writer Jiang Zilong to guess a riddle, saying that the riddle had not been solved for 20 years. Jiang Zilong claimed that since he was three years old, he had not encountered a riddle that he could not guess. Ginsberg's riddle is: put a 2500 gram chicken into a bottle that can only hold 500 grams of water, and how to take it out. Jiang Zilong immediately replied, "what are you doing
