In 2005, Shi Tiesheng, who was ill, won the prose prize of Lu Xun Literature Award for his Broken Pen. After awarding the prize, he said: "The essence of the dilemma hurts people the same. If you don't look for the meaning of life, life is meaningless. " Shi Tiesheng 2 1 year-old was disabled by illness and spent more than 30 years in a wheelchair. However, he has written excellent works, such as the short story My Distant Qingpingwan, the philosophical novel My Meditation Notes and the essay Me and Ditan. Later, he suffered from kidney disease, developed into uremia and needed dialysis to maintain his life. This tenacious man is always dying, and writing becomes extremely difficult. The winning broken pen has been written for four years, sometimes only a few lines a day. Generally speaking, such experiences and experiences must be painful and sad. But Shi Tiesheng is optimistic. He said: "A clear understanding of pessimism is optimism." At this time, the power to support his creation comes entirely from the will, because he realized: "You can't let go, or you may let go completely."

On the last day of 20 10, Shi Tiesheng left ... claiming that "his occupation is illness, and his spare time is writing", sitting in a wheelchair, he once taught us to think with a pen-he left a series of heavy works, which contained sparks of thought and uttered sounds and full thoughts with a broken body. Of course, these words condensed with sweat and hard work will not lose their value because of the writer's death.
