After ten years of hard self-study and tenacious struggle, Haoran realized his dream of being a writer on the occasion of * * * and Guo's tenth birthday. That year, he was 27.
At the end of 1964, Haoran turned to Beijing Federation of Literary and Art Circles and became a professional writer. By 1966, on the eve of the "Cultural Revolution", he had created and published 10 collections of short stories such as Song of Spring, 4 collections of children's literature and essays such as Streets in Beijing, and published 3 volumes of representative work Sunny Days with1.20,000 words.
"Sunny Days" caused a strong response as soon as it came out and was widely praised. Haoran received more than 10,000 letters from enthusiastic readers all over the country. Later, the film of the same name was released, which made this work a household name and had far-reaching influence. 1999, Hong Kong's Asia Weekly, which faces the global Chinese world, selected "Top 0 Chinese Novels in the 20th Century 100". Among Chinese mainland's novels from 1949 to 1976, only Sunny Days by Hao Ran and New Youth of Organization Department by Wang Meng are on the list.
When talking about his creative achievements, Mr. Haoran said excitedly: "Since I decided to engage in literary creation, I never took a nap in my youth, never went to bed before 12 pm, and never indulged in pleasure and wasted time. Even if you are sick in bed, you should study, teach yourself, turn over your notes, or think about stories with your eyes closed and wonder how to write better. "
Haoran misses his hardworking and kind evil mother very much. My mother has been strong all her life, but she is not comfortable. With deep regret and endless concern, she left a pair of young children and died prematurely. "People should be ambitious and upright" is a word she often talks about. This sentence had an important impact on Haoran's life, and he still remembers it. Haoran said with emotion: "Our generation of workers and peasants writers is unprecedented in the history of China literature. I sincerely thank the party, the revolution and the times. I will always take the right path, do the right thing and be an upright person! "
According to the statistics of Xinhua Bookstore, there are more than 50 kinds of Haoran's works widely distributed in China alone, with10 million copies. Some people say that he is the writer with the largest circulation of China's works. He wrote and published as many as 1 1 novels in various historical periods. In the 1960s, when Sunny Days was first published, he paid the full manuscript fee of 1 0,000 yuan. In recent years, a consortium in Singapore offered 2 million yuan to buy all the copyrights of his works, which he flatly refused. He said: "If someone wants to adapt my work in the future and has to go abroad to buy copyright, what is that!" A beverage factory in Guangxi asked him to shoot a TV advertisement for a beverage, and the reward was 654.38+0 million yuan. He declined politely. Haoran said: "My standard in life is not to be ambitious, not to be greedy, and not to hurt people's hearts. Kindness, kindness and integrity. " He has always adhered to this principle.
At the request of the author, Mr. Haoran happily wrote the words "Be honest and clean, express the true feelings of life" and gave them to the author. These two sentences are also a true portrayal of Mr. Haoran's affectation.
