People soon remembered this novel and its author, Huang Liang. This emaciated young man named Huang Liang is the first Jinjiang literary writer to win the Fujian Literature Prize.
At that time, Huang Liang, who had just turned 26, worked in Jinjiang County Cultural Center. Few people know that he has written novels for five years before. What is well known to the public is that since then, he has published several novels with local characteristics in Fujian literature, and his reputation has been greatly shocked. Joined Fujian Writers' Association and became a leading figure in the field of novels in Jinjiang and Quanzhou.
Today, Huang Liang is still the most frequently mentioned novel. Shi Xiaoyu, a professor and writer of Fuzhou University who wrote the article Looking for Huang Liang 20 years ago, spoke highly of Huang Liang's novels The Story of the Stone and The Stone Statue at the symposium on the centenary of the founding of star house in Jinjiang last month: "The Story of the Stone expresses Huang Liang's love for his hometown land and his poetic interpretation of his pastoral yearning consciousness."
"I dare not use my novels to decipher the thoughts of our nation, but every time I write, I try to reflect the land of Jinjiang where I was born and the people on this land." Huang Liang said that writing a novel, like building a house, is a "boring" thing. Thirty years ago, in a village near the sea in Jinjing, he worked as a stonemason, carpenter, painter, chicken breeder and substitute teacher ... At that time, writing almost became his only spiritual pillar in the depressed reality.
Whether living in a corner of the country or in a bustling market, Huang Liang can sit on the bench for 20 years and write a trilogy of life with millions of words-essays, novels, misunderstandings in life, poetry collections, life essays and essays. When Jinjiang Economic News was first published in 2006, he was invited to write a column for Wuliqiao Supplement and published more than 50 essays. The essay "Hahaha" also won the first prize of Fujian Newspaper Supplement in 2007 and the second prize of 17 Fujian News Award.
20 10, 10 In February, Huang Liang unexpectedly hit the literary world again with his historical prose "Castle Peak Outside the Forest", which quickly set off a wave. A young writer in Nan 'an was shocked to read this essay in Fujian Literature. He rode his motorcycle on Lingyuan Mountain looking for traces outside the forest. Faced with more than 6,000 ups and downs of historical figures, critics exclaimed: Huang Liang has transformed, and he turned from novels to historical prose. Faced with this so-called theme jump, Huang Liang did not agree: "Our ancestral culture is very broad. Jinjiang is one of the few Jinshi counties in China with strong economic strength. Culture is not a desert, but a lack of publicity. " As a native of Jinjiang, Huang Liang has always been deeply in awe of Jinjiang's history and culture. He intends to spend two years writing ten historical celebrities and ten long articles related to Jinjiang, interpreting Li Zhi, Zheng Chenggong and Li Shutong from different angles, and then publishing them in a collection.
"Literature, like life, has rich and colorful forms and profound connotations." Huang Liang believes that literary creation can believe everything for the world and even the society. When I was a teenager, I wrote poetry because of love. When I was young, most people would believe that they wrote prose because they had faith; When people reach middle age, most people don't believe it. Because of rationality, they write novels. When I was old, I didn't trust all of them. Because I have thoughts, I write essays.
Literary dream of literary convener
From 65438 to 0999, Huang Liang, a scholar, was transferred from the post of director of Jinjiang Museum to the full-time vice chairman of Jinjiang Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and presided over the work of the Federation two years later. Young Huang Liang began his "marriage" with Jinjiang Federation of Literary and Art Circles for more than ten years.
From the literary youth to the chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, there are many administrative affairs, and they are very busy all day, but Huang Liang never forgets to take time to read casual books. In the process of reading local chronicles and historical materials, he often thinks about how to export Jinjiang culture and let more people know its splendid history and culture. From 2002 to 2065438+00, he presided over the compilation of books introducing Jinjiang's scenic spots, economy and society, such as Visiting Jinjiang, Ten Years of Brilliant Road, Guanyin Rhyme and Jacket Style. In 2007, he participated in the planning and shooting of the TV series "General Shi Lang" broadcast on a prime-time program of CCTV, and won the "Five One Projects" award of the 10th spiritual civilization construction in Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China. In mid-May, 20 1 1, his book "Jinjiang people who influenced China" will meet with readers. "These literary and artistic products have become eye-catching signs of Jinjiang's urban culture and enhanced Jinjiang's urban humanistic character." Huang Liang said, as a book describing historical figures with great influence in various periods in Jinjiang, Jinjiang People who influenced China tells the ups and downs and experiences of eight outstanding Jinjiang people in ancient and modern times, including not only the famous anti-Japanese stars Yu and Shi Lang, the great painters Hong and Cai Qijiao, but also the godfather of Jinjiang business and the shoe king of China.
At the same time, Huang Liang has strengthened its support for local literary talents. After many efforts, the Jinjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attached great importance to literary and artistic work, established the Jinjiang Municipal Government Starlight Literature Award, and set up a literary and artistic creation fund, which enabled Jinjiang's literary and artistic garden to flourish.
"Jinjiang literature and art have blossomed and achieved fruitful results. Literature, art, calligraphy, photography and other fields have emerged a number of good works with unity of ideology, artistry and appreciation, which is a big leap compared with 10 years ago. " Huang Liang said that up to now, there are 40 national members, 290 provincial members and 6 provincial directors in various literary and art societies in Jinjiang, and more than a dozen literary and art figures have been elected as deputies to the people's congresses in Quanzhou and Jinjiang and members of the CPPCC, actively participating in public affairs at all levels of society. Jinjiang has formed a literary and art army with talented people, talented people and famous artists. Literary and art research groups from all walks of life have also been established. There are 75 literary and art societies, societies and research institutes in Jinjiang.
Life drifting
Poetry has lost its good reputation since its birth. "Pigeons in Guanguan, in Hezhou, are my fair lady and gentlemen are good", like a warm current, injected into the hearts of listeners and readers, and the long river of human history has been far away from now on, with blue sea and clear sky. Ancient sages and sages were all masters in the field of poetry. Tears of sadness are dancing on the Miluo River. Taoling east is leisurely picking chrysanthemums under the fence, and it is too difficult to climb the Shu Road. Li Qingzhao looked for it with sadness. Ma Zhiyuan sunset heartbroken ... When we sing, we will be suddenly enlightened or ecstatic.
-This is the enduring charm of poetry.
I have been writing poetry for almost twenty years. He poured a lot of passion and piled up countless words in an attempt to get a place in Jinjiang poetry group, but he was often laughed at by his brothers. Many years ago, I published a long poem entitled "Salute, Morning of the Motherland" in Haiyan Supplement of Xiamen Daily, and the payment was enough to invite a table. During the dinner, the two brothers cynically said that this was an "old tradition, nothing new". This incident greatly stimulated my poetry creation and left me with a deep impression. So far, I can accept some views, but I don't want to disagree. As the oldest literary genre, the reason why poetry thrives in China lies in that generations of poets consciously or unconsciously regard poetry as the best choice to understand the inner world of human beings, spread and carry historical civilization. This statement is utilitarian, but it is positive and realistic. Therefore, with its popularity and nationality, poetry has become a popular literary form in all walks of life. At present, the core of the innovative theory and practice of some X-school poets, such as modernism, postmodernism, dead X-school and new dead X-school, is actually to ignore society, escape from life and imprison their hearts in a birdcage alone. This kind of ideological viewpoint and artistic practice is naturally spurned by readers. Then, poetry has fallen into an unprecedented crisis of survival, and people write more poems than they read them, so there is no need for sophistry. Theoretical circles prescribe prescriptions indiscriminately and take a lot of fierce drugs, but it is still difficult to treat. The crux is actually self-evident. Stupidly, if a poet always loves a lover who is "good enough to help the world and poor enough to be alone", then the revival of poetry is not empty talk.
Some people say that an era has an era of fashion. How can modern people have time to ponder the leap words of this branch? Poetry should be carefully withdrawn from the historical stage.
Will this oldest art form die out in our time?
I wonder if anyone agrees with this statement.
I absolutely don't believe it.
In recent years, I don't know whether to go with the flow or keep pace with the times, but I have followed suit and published a book. First, in 2000, he published the prose collection "Platform of Life" in China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Press, and then published the novel collection "Misunderstanding of Life" in Huayi Press 200 1. Now, the poetry collection "Life Drifting" has been officially published by the international cultural publishing company, and some friends have dubbed it "Life"
I am either a fool or a madman, and I want to stay in history. I want to be an ordinary person.
