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.

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.
[Edit this paragraph] < 2 > Sanmao's 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.

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 continued to flow, 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.

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, 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.
[Edit this paragraph] < 3 > San Mao's letter to Jia Pingwa
Attachment: San Mao's letter to Jia Pingwa
Mr. Pingwa:
It's two o'clock in the morning on 199 1 year 1 month 1 day. It is raining.
The first letter I wrote this year was addressed to you: my favorite master. Respectfully
Thanks to this pen, how many sleepless nights have been brought to readers like me. Although I have only read your two masterpieces, The Dog and Impetuousness, I have read them again and again, which is equivalent to forty books.
Among contemporary writers in China, your writing is the most sensitive, but after reading it, it seems to be a kind of loneliness. I love reading all my life. I am a scholar. Unfortunately, few friends can talk about this experience. It's very lonely to read your book. People who can't read your book have to look out of shape.
In Taiwan Province Province, I have a girlfriend who is reading your book and is willing to discuss it with me, but she doesn't read it deeply and can catch some flavor. I had no choice but to tell this friend about "Tiangou". For a year, there has been a backlog of depression in my heart. This is not from my personal life, but because I know your book. On the mainland, someone will take my words as "Jia Pingwa is good!" I stared at people and asked, "What's the best way?" I couldn't say it, so I suffocated myself again. I'm not happy that people who read your book are waiting to read it.
Mr. Pingwa, you are an excellent writer. After reading your novel, my chest was stuffy for a long time. This happened when I watched A Dream of Red Mansions and Zhang Ailing, but it was still not so "contrapuntal" until someone in Hong Kong talked about mainland writers and mentioned your name. I bought dozens of books in one breath and read them one by one. It was not until your book appeared that I was relieved and wanted to scream. By the way, it's a master. The birth of a superstar is like this. I'm not mistaken. From now on, I will take those two books and read them to you for four or five hours every day.
If it weren't for your book, you might not have the motivation to write such a letter all your life. Even if I write now, I think this feeling-what I got from your book-is "recreated" through my personal reading experience. Even if I face the author myself, I still feel closed, but maybe we can communicate, that is: your work is too profound. Not the background: it's your own soul.
I have read the works of three people for more than twenty times today. One is Cao Yu, the other is Zhang Ailing, and the other is you. Thank you very much.
Without saying a polite word, this heavy gift you gave me should be well preserved and cherished in my life. This is a book that I value very much. The reason why I didn't send you my book is simple. In contrast, Sanmao's works are written for ordinary people, and Jia Pingwa's works are written for Sanmao who has really read all his life. My book won't be on your shelf unless it's friendship, not words.
There is a writer named "Grade Seven Student" in Taiwan Province Province. His books are not for sale, but they are very unique. If you want to meet him, I'll be happy to introduce them to you.
I think we are all bookworms. Looking through your Selected Works yesterday, I saw your prose part, which was a bit scary for a while. When I read your novel, the author hides behind the scenes, prose is a part of life, and the author has no curtains to stop. I turned a few pages gently. I want to return the book after I close it. Prose is so direct and more obvious sincerity that people don't want to walk into the author's home at once. That's not the life confession of Blackstone, it's yours. I'll read it again this morning. I will watch it again and again in the future, and I will tell you how I feel in the future. I read Observation three times first (the second miscellaneous talk about human nature and literature, Taoism).
I got off the plane in Xi 'an at the end of April 1990 and stood outside in a daze in the big square. I am greatly disappointed when I think that Jia Pingwa lives in this city. I smoked a few cigarettes and watched the smoke slowly disperse in the cold air. Then I left. If I lost anything, it was a step.
I wrote this letter after taking painkillers. I will be hospitalized for surgery the day after tomorrow. I can't travel for a while, I can't work for at least a year, and I have a serious illness.
If you are not so tired, maybe you can come to Xi 'an to see you in four or five months? I don't have to play with you. I just want to talk to you about Jia Pingwa, a contemporary master I know and feel in my mind.
I write to you with the most precious wool paper. The writing paper here is too white. This kind of paper is hard to buy in Taipei. I keep it. My address is on the envelope.
Your hometown has become my dream charm. Shangzhou does not exist.
Sheng Mao Jing Shang
After reading this letter, I found that there was no trace of Sanmao's imminent death, and Sanmao's death was even more mysterious. But since the old friend has left, let her go with peace of mind, and we should respect her. )
