Sanmao, formerly known as Mao Ping, Han nationality, born in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, 1943 was born in Huangjiaoya, Chongqing on March 26th. "Mao" is the ranking of her generation in the genealogy, and "Ping" is the great mission of "peace" given by her father in the hope that there would be no more wars in this world when she was born. Later, the child began to learn to write, and she could not learn to write the word "Mao" anyway. Every time I write my name, I will jump out of the middle word and call myself Chen Ping. Not only that, but also moved Chen's left ear to the next room and became his right ear. When she got off the bus, her father had to surrender. She gave herself a name. She is only three years old. Later, the word "Mao" was removed by her brothers.

I study in the Philosophy Department of Chinese Culture University. After studying in Europe, he settled in Canary Island in the Western Sahara Desert and wrote a series of well-known works according to local life. 198 1 returned to Taiwan Province and taught at the Culture University. 1984 resigned to concentrate on writing and speaking. He died on 199 1 year 1 month 4 at the age of 48.

Her footprints are all over the world, and her works are also widely circulated in the global Chinese society, and there are also a large number of readers in Chinese mainland. Her life works and translations are very rich, including 24 kinds.

Sanmao's English name is ECHO, and Sanmao is a pen name. From San Mao's Preface to Brain Studies, only the word "San Mao" is mentioned, which contains a divination in the Book of Changes. But what is the mystery, it is not clear. However, Sanmao himself once said: At first, I took this name because I liked Mr. Zhang Leping's "Sanmao Wandering Story" (later worshipped as michel platini); Another reason is that what you write is very ordinary, only worth 30 cents.

Sanmao resume

Sanmao was born in Chongqing on March 26th, 1943 (February 2nd of the lunar calendar1). Sanmao showed her love for books since she was a child, and she saw a dream of red mansions for the first time in the next semester of grade five. When I was in junior high school, I almost read all the world famous books on the market. I dropped out of school in the second grade and was carefully taught by my parents, laying a solid foundation for ancient poetry and English. He studied under three painters: Gu, Han Xiangning and Shao. Sanmao recorded these three painting teachers in her essay My Three Teachers.

65438-0964, was chartered by Mr. Zhang Qijun, the founder of Culture University, as an observer of the philosophy department of the school, with excellent academic performance.

1967 dropped out of school again and went to Spain alone. During this period, I studied at the University of Madrid in Spain and Goethe Institute in Germany, and worked in the Law Library of the University of Enoch in the United States. It is of great help to her life experience and Chinese learning.

/kloc-returned to China in 0/970 and was invited by Mr. Zhang Qijun to teach in the Department of German Literature and Philosophy of Wenda University. Later, due to the sudden death of her fiance, she left again and went to Spain. Reunion with her beloved, her 6-year-old Jose.

1974, he married Jose in the local court in the western Sahara desert. Life in the desert inspired her potential writing talent. With the encouragement of the editor-in-chief of the United Daily News at that time, her works kept flowing and she began to collect and publish books.

The first work, The Story of the Sahara, was published in May 1976.

1On September 30th, 979, her husband Jose died in a diving accident and returned to Taiwan Province Province.

198 1 year, Sanmao decided to end her life in a foreign country 14 and settle in China. In June+10 of the same year, United Daily News specially sponsored her to travel to Central and South America for half a year. After coming back, she wrote "Thousands of Waters in Qian Shan" and gave a speech around the island. After that, Sanmao taught literature and art in the Cultural University, teaching novel creation and prose writing, which was deeply loved by students.

1984, due to health reasons, resigned from the teaching staff and concentrated on writing and speaking.

I returned to my hometown in Chinese mainland for the first time in April after 1989, and found that my works also have many readers in Chinese mainland. I made a special trip to visit Mr. Zhang Leping, who is famous for his comic book The Wandering of San Mao, and fulfilled his long-cherished wish.

1990 engaged in script writing, and finished her first Chinese script, which is also her last work, Rolling the Red Dust.

199 1 65438+ died in the early morning of1October 4th at the age of 48.

Personality assessment

My daughter always says that life is not about length, but whether you live happily. I think this statement is: truly grasp the meaning of life and live. At this point, although I was heartbroken by her burning, I agreed.

-San Mao's father Chen Siqing

In my mother's eyes, she is ordinary, but she is just my child.

Sanmao is a pure man. In her world, she can't stand being false. It is this kind of truth-seeking character that makes her live very steadily. Maybe her life and her experience are not perfect, but we can be sure that she didn't escape her fate, and she faced life bravely.

-San Mao's mother Miao Jinlan

Sanmao once said that she envied my love with Qin and Han dynasties and wanted to find a partner who cared about herself and could talk to her at work. Unfortunately, she failed to find the ideal object. She still misses her dead husband very much. She is too careless to protect herself ... I once advised her not to be too headstrong, even if she doesn't care about her body, she should take good care of her body for her parents.

-Actor Brigitte Lin.

Sanmao is not a beauty. She is tall and has long hair, and she wanders around the world with books and pens. Young, strong and lonely, Sanmao's charm to young people in Chinese mainland is beyond anyone's imagination. For many years, everyone has been talking about Sanmao everywhere, and I am one of the readers. Art exists by conquest. I worship Sanmao, a real writer.

-Writer Jia Pingwa

Some nouns with beautiful meanings become vulgar when used too much. Talented people and talented women walking around the street is an example, as is the strange girl who frequently appears on the screen. Originally, I didn't want to put this tacky title on Sanmao, but there is no more suitable description. Let's call her a strange girl. The positive meaning of "strange" should be "maverick". According to Ci Hai's explanation, it is also called noble and unwilling to go with the flow.

-Writer Liang Yusheng

Sanmao is very friendly, but I have a bad impression of her. Sanmao said that she was "not a person who likes to talk in a box", but I think it's just the opposite. I think she has been fiddling with her box all day, and this box is her repeated love story, with Foucault as a white tiger star, Bai Yunxiang as an escape from the world, leukemia as an international route, and feelings overflowing like boiled water. If Sanmao is a beauty, maybe she can have a lingering romantic aftertaste, because this is the privilege of beauty. But Sanmao is obviously not, so her "beautiful" love story is too much for her. ...

-Writer Li Ao

If life is a cloud, its beauty, its brilliance, its changes and its drift are all natural, just because it is a cloud. Sanmao is like this. With her misty life, she unfolded into an arbitrary image. No matter how she feels about life, whether it is sweet or sad, she has no intention of affectation. Between the lines, there are silent songs everywhere. We can hear that kind of song with our hearts, which is as beautiful as nature. People who are bound by civilization are often accustomed to worldly triviality and get lost unconsciously. Reading Sanmao's works, we find a world created by life, like a blooming flower in the desert. She values life above the common customs, which requires clever wisdom and great courage.

-Writer Sima Zhongyuan

Many people criticize Sanmao and think that she is just dreaming in her own small world, but I don't agree. Basically, literary creation is the highest expression of a person's sublimation. If she can sublimate such feelings, it shows that she has such a level, much higher than many writers.

-Actor Hu Yinmeng.

San Mao's outlook on life is different from that of ordinary people. She believes that there are two forms of life: the body and the soul after death. She rationally chose to pursue the second stage of her life. We should respect her choice and not be too sad. Sanmao must have her reasons for choosing suicide.

-Writer Ni Kuang

Works review

There are more than ten kinds of essays and novels, such as The Story of the Sahara, The Crying Camel, The Rainy Season Never Comes, The Gentle Night, How Many Flowers Fall in My Dream, My Back, My Baby, etc. Sanmao's prose has a wide range of materials, including exotic customs, simple, romantic and unique writing style, which expresses the author's feelings of loving human beings, life, freedom and nature. His travel prose "The Story of the Sahara" and "Thousands of Rivers in Qian Shan" are full of knowledge, interest and artistry, and have high cultural aesthetic value. Essays describing mourning, such as Yun Shan Yue Tian, The Immortal Bird, The Back of the Figure, The Return of a Swallow, etc., are gloomy and indifferent in style, perfect and more readable.

Sanmao is romantic by nature. When he was three years old, he read Zhang Leping's "San Mao's Wandering" and was deeply impressed. Later, he took Sanmao as his pen name. In pursuit of her "olive tree", she traveled all over Qian Shan. However, neither the lifestyle of a foreign city nor the exotic customs of the ends of the earth can dispel her deep-rooted China complex. Although married to a foreigner with deep eyes and high nose, she is still an out-and-out oriental woman. Sanmao never deliberately pursues a certain skill and style, and everything seems dull and natural. But in her writing style, there is infinity, which may be a higher skill and style. Sanmao and her husband Jose

Some readers believe that "wandering" is her real name. No matter the many works she left behind, her travels, and the turning point of her heart and emotions, there is a little wandering around the world.

On one occasion, Sanmao's mother Miao Jinlan mentioned in an article entitled "My daughter, everyone's Sanmao" that among the four brothers and sisters, Sanmao, the second daughter, is the most unconventional, unconventional and intolerant of falsehood. Therefore, parents should be around her to see if she walks steadily every step.

In fact, San Mao's works, especially The Story of the Sahara, are narratives of her travels and feelings. In those years when he lived with Jose, Sanmao's articles were full of laughter and joy. When readers read her novels, they seem to feel her happy married life. Even in the face of sandstorms, she is positive and optimistic. But since Jose's death, Sanmao's article has suddenly become "dark", and there is no smile between the lines, replaced by endless sadness. At this time, the works have shaped Sanmao into a sad passerby image.

Emotionally, San Mao is also a legend. 1990, when San Mao's screenplay "Rolling Red Dust" won eight Golden Horse Awards, she had a sincere love affair with China folk song master Wang. At that time, she even went to Urumqi to live with Wang. Finally, although Sanmao and Wang separated because of different backgrounds. However, Sanmao's bold character and passionate feelings in her works complement each other, which is why countless readers in Taiwan Province, Hongkong and Taiwan Province love her works.

Sanmao ancestral home

Sanmao's ancestral home 192 1 was built by Mr. Chen Zongxu, the grandfather of Sanmao, a famous female writer in Taiwan Province Province. The five main rooms of Sanmao ancestral home were transformed into Sanmao memorial rooms, featuring "a life full of strange stories", "Sanmao's works that are popular all over the world", "Traveling all over Qian Shan", "affection, love, friendship, nostalgia" and "I miss you!" "San Mao" and other themes, showing San Mao's relics, works of various versions, photos of various periods, and articles commemorating San Mao by Chinese and foreign people. The north wing room is equipped with a video room and a tea room for the trip to Sanmao's hometown. Many precious exhibits displayed in Sanmao Ancestral Temple were mailed by Sanmao's younger brother, Mr. Chen Jie, from Taiwan Province. Every exhibit is permeated with San Mao's deep homesickness and love for the country.

[Edit this paragraph] San Mao Quotations

When I smile, my face looks like spring flowers, which will definitely make people move, no matter who he is.

Don't look at that wound, it will scar one day, and the scar won't fade, but it won't hurt any more.

Every time I miss you, a grain of sand falls from the sky, forming the Sahara from now on!

Good boy, what you are looking for is often not found. Everything in the world comes and goes in his time.

A wonderful record of love

▲ It is difficult to have eternal love in the world. There is absolutely eternal affection in the world. Once love is integrated into feelings, the foundation is not built on sand.

▲ Some people's love is just a kind of "emotion at that time". If the other person mistakenly regards this feeling as a long-term love, it is naive.

▲ The moment of truth cannot be said to be false. Love is eternal, not just a moment.

▲ Love will not last long if it is not implemented in the real life of dressing, eating and sleeping.

▲ Love is not necessary, but it is bleak without love. The desolate days are sad. Sadness is more than love?

▲ Love is a mystery. When there is an excuse in love, an excuse is an excuse. Obviously, there is no excuse for passion. It came and went without a trace. If love dies, it is equally unreasonable for one party to force it back for any reason.

▲ Love is a colorful balloon, and no matter how gorgeous the color is, it can't stand the sting of the needle tip.

▲ Take part in accidental amusement, even as a child's play. Only the most boring people in the world can play this kind of love game. If you really have temperament and a serious family-run drinking capacity, you can also be a brave man and a brave woman.

▲ The taste of love is very complicated and definitely worth a try.

Wonderful quotations of friendship

▲ Friends are a kind of interpersonal relationship outside the five ethics. This is because people have not defined the meaning of this term.

▲ Friends you know in an instant are short-lived and long-lasting, and there are always complications in that kind of fit.

▲ friends still need to be classified-for example, books can't be mixed. Too confused, too hasty, often in the wrong category.

▲ No matter how close a friend is, he can't be wrong. He thinks he is very familiar. As a result, they were isolated.

▲ The meaning of friends is hard to change.

▲ Friends are definitely falling in time and space. Once the childhood playmates are gone, when we meet again, emotion is just a promise in memory. It's hard to say anything except in those days.

▲ between friends, ask for small things, follow the crowd and be reasonable. Asking too much, pushing your luck, is the fastest shortcut to deliberately lose friends.

▲ It is absolutely necessary for friends to be happy together and add icing on the cake. Friends share weal and woe, unless they are in the same boat, there will always be ups and downs.

▲ It is unwise to seize friendship, and it is a joy to touch friendship. Once you lose a friend, the most open-minded idea is that no one belongs to anyone.

▲ You can enter and leave, and if you leave, you can be cute and resentful, and you can't get together. It is an everlasting good friend.

▲ I care about others carefully to keep my emotions from flooding.

▲ I will never be too enthusiastic about people, which made me master proper limit.

▲ I ignore unnecessary gossip, which makes me feel very comfortable.

▲ I seldom ask for help, which makes me very free.

▲ I don't owe money, I am very at ease.

I made others owe me money, which made me a fool.

▲ I study and let me live a few more lives.

[Edit this paragraph] Cause of death related.

Sanmao, a female writer in Taiwan Province Province, has been dead for many years, but the exact cause of her death is still a mystery. Recently, a book named San Mao died of murder appeared in major bookstores in Shanghai. But many things about Sanmao have been questioned, which makes people have to doubt his motivation to help himself and Sanmao become famous together.

San Mao roamed 54 countries in his life. 199 1 year 65438+ 10 was admitted to Taiwan Province veterans general hospital for endometrial hypertrophy on February 2, and the operation was completed on March 3. On the morning of the 4th, the cleaning staff of the hospital entered the single dedicated ward of obstetrics and gynecology on the 7th floor. When cleaning the bathroom, she saw Sanmao's body hanging on the hook of the drip stand next to the toilet by nylon stockings. She was wearing red pajamas with a white background, and there was no suicide note at the scene.

The medical examiner concluded that Sanmao died at 2 am. The next day, all the newspapers in Taiwan Province Province reported Sanmao's death, and more than 80 newspapers in Hong Kong also reported it in detail. However, less than half a year later, people from all walks of life questioned Sanmao's death. They think that the police's on-the-spot investigation is too hasty, and his conclusion of "hanging himself against the world" is too arbitrary. Will there be a real murderer at large?

Sanmao worships love.

1974, San Mao married a handsome Spanish guy Jose in Sahara. 1979, Jose was killed while diving in North Africa. Sanmao cried her eyes out and lived in Jose's thoughts from now on.

Sanmao loves the motherland. She put forward long ago that "the two sides of the strait can no longer be separated" 1985, and she sang National Anthem of the People's Republic of China March of the Volunteers in a speech attended by thousands of people. She was the first person in Taiwan Province Province to publicly sing march of the volunteers. There was silence backstage, and many people were worried about her.

Sanmao has an extraordinary friendship with Zhang Leping, Yao, Jia Pingwa, Wang and other mainland cultural celebrities. 1989, San Mao went to Shanghai to meet the painter Zhang Leping and recognized the painter as "Dad". She told the painter in Shanghai dialect: "I left Shanghai when I was over 3 years old. I was just sensible at that time. The first book I read was Sanmao's wandering story. The boy who wandered around and never grew up had a great influence on me. Many years later, when I wrote my first book abroad, I used the pseudonym' Sanmao'. "

Sanmao wrote a song "Olive Tree": "Don't ask me where I come from, my hometown is far away, why am I wandering, far away ..." This song was banned in Taiwan Province for more than ten years, because the authorities thought that the word "far away" in the lyrics meant Chinese mainland. 1990 12, Sanmao's film "Rolling Red Dust" participated in the Taiwan Golden Horse Award Competition and won eight awards, but there was no Sanmao Award for Best Original Screenplay. The rolling world of mortals aroused the anger of some authorities in Taiwan Province Province: "Deliberately praising the Communist Party of China (CPC), wantonly attacking the government, and vilifying the national army ..." Some people think that Sanmao may become a political victim.

In the book, various speculations about Sanmao's death, such as incurable disease, loneliness, being trapped by love, Jiang Lang's exhaustion and suicide complex, are refuted one by one. The book also quoted 10 celebrities talking about Sanmao, thinking that Sanmao died strangely and suddenly, and she had no reason to commit suicide. It is unfair to San Mao to interpret her death as suicide, and even an insult to her personality.
