Character experience

1946, Jiang Rong was born in the northern Jiangsu base area. His father, Lu Bingkui, participated in the old revolution of the New Fourth Army during the Anti-Japanese War. After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), he served as director of Jiangsu Provincial Health Department. His mother, an intellectual, was injured and disabled on the battlefield because she participated in the revolution.

Later, my father was transferred to Beijing to work and became the Ministry of Health. Jiang Rong moved to Beijing with his father.

At the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution", Jiang Rong posted the first poster in the middle school attached to the Central Academy of Fine Arts, where he attended, opposing the working group's stationing in the school. Because of this 10,000-word poster, Jiang Rong and two other students were labeled as members of the "anti-Party Trio" in the "Four Clean-ups" movement, and they fought at the student meeting of the whole school. Later, with the change of political situation, the working group withdrew, and Jiang Rong and his classmates set up the "Revolutionary Committee". At the age of 20, he became the "Deputy Director of the Revolutionary Committee".

1967 1 16 10/6 years ago, Jiang Rong, who was 2 1 year-old, and 120 Beijing educated youths left Beijing for Xilin Gol, Inner Mongolia.

1977, Jiang Rong once went to Xilin Gol grassland and cut in line there. Only a meadow near the border was not destroyed-that was outside the border highway. During the Cultural Revolution, it was a national defense military restricted area and grazing was not allowed.

1978, in the wave of educated youth returning to the city, Jiang Rong left the grassland and returned to Beijing.

1April, 1979, with good examination results and a paper on national system reform, he was admitted to Yu Guangyuan, Su Shaozhi and Zhang Xianyang of the Institute of Marxism-Leninism of China Academy of Social Sciences.

From 65438 to 0983, Jiang Rong entered a university in Beijing to teach and devoted himself to academic research.

Wolf Totem was written in 1998, and the whole writing process was called "nuclear fission" by him. On the basis of his experience of jumping the queue and living in the grassland, Jiang Rong wrote his philosophy of life, the differences and integration of nomadic culture and farming culture into Wolf Totem.

On June 5438+February 65438+May, 2006, the "2006 China Writers' First Rich List" was released, and Jiang Rong was ranked 10 in the writers' rich list with a royalty income of 7.2 million yuan, which aroused widespread concern.

In 2008, Wolf Totem has signed more than 20 foreign language translation contracts. Seven foreign language versions, including Italian, Japanese and French, have been published overseas.

External evaluation

Wolf Totem is the only "fantastic book" in the world that describes and studies Mongolian prairie wolves so far.

affect

Reading this book will be an inexhaustible spiritual feast of wolf totem in our time. Because it is heavy, because it can't be copied. Because the nomadic grasslands where Mongolian soldiers and Mongolian wolves roam freely are disappearing or have disappeared, all those legends and stories about wolves are degenerating from our memory, leaving only some moral curses and vicious verbal symbols for us and future generations. If it weren't for this book, wolves, especially Mongolian coyotes, the engine of totem worship and natural evolution of ancient civilization in China, would be like dark matter in some universes, far away from our earth and human beings and floating in the unknown forever.

Close contact with wolves

Thanks to Mr. Jiang Rong, the author of this book. More than 30 years ago, as an educated youth in Beijing, he volunteered to jump the queue in the Oroqen prairie on the border of Inner Mongolia 1 1 year. Until 1979 was admitted to the Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. In the grassland, he drilled through the wolf hole, dug up the wolf cubs, raised the wolf cubs, fought with the wolves and made love with them. Together with his dear little wolf, he experienced the painful spirit of "nomadism" in his youth. The Mongolian wolf took him through the Millennium fog of history and went straight to the mysterious center. It is the wolf's cunning and wisdom, the wolf's military talent and indomitable character, the love and hate of the grassland people for the wolf, and the magical power of the wolf, which makes Jiang Rong and the wolf have an indissoluble bond. Wolf is the ancestor, master, god of war and model of grassland people; Wolf's team spirit and family responsibility; The wisdom, tenacity and dignity of wolves; Wolf's training and guidance to Mongolian soldiers and grassland ecological protection; The supreme worship of wolves by nomadic people for thousands of years; Mongolian ancient and mysterious celestial burial ceremony; And wolf howling, wolf ears, wolf eyes, wolf food, wolf smoke, wolf flag, the author is addicted to it and wrote this novel about man and nature, human nature and wolf nature, wolf way and heaven. Nowadays, when China's social transformation and the national character derived from farming civilization became a heavy fetter, Jiang Rong finally put an end to his masterpiece which he devoted half his life to, and finally completed the mission of reappearing the "wolf totem" and became the "terminator of the truth of wolves". However, there are still some misunderstandings and misleading about the relationship between "wolf nature" and the cultural history of China's powerful dynasties, which has caused some controversy and criticism.
