Time background
In the early 1980s, due to the special political environment, the creative trend of "reflective literature" appeared, which gradually became a universal literary spirit in the 1980s. This spirit influenced the long-form creation in the 1990s, and many long-form creations in the 1990s were involuntarily moving closer to this spirit, which also made the long-form creation in this period reach a new height in the reflection on national history and culture.
It is under this literary trend of thought that Chen Meng-sheng has the desire to create White Deer Plain and completed this epic work which can represent this new height of reflection.
