Haoran and Sanhe
In today's literary world in China, there are many topics about Haoran, either praise or disparage. However, the real integrity gives people the impression of kindness, simplicity and simplicity, and looks like an old farmer. The old farmer attaches great importance to spring sowing and autumn harvest, because he must work hard, not have holidays and be lazy, otherwise there will be no harvest. Haoran is a famous writer, who has published100000 words and more than 50 kinds of literary works. His masterpieces Sunny Days and Cotai Strip are well known. Since the new period of reform and opening-up, China has risen again with his novel Ordinary Life, but he still hasn't changed his original intention and missed the noise and utility of the literary and art circles in metropolis. He plunged into the grass roots and settled in Sanhe, Hebei Province. It's really commendable.
Haoran, whose real name is Liang, is from Shanjiazhuang, Baodi County. Because of his poor family, his father worked as a miner in Zhaogezhuang Coal Mine in Tangshan in his early years, and then his family moved and settled down. He was born there in March 1932. After his father died, he went with his mother to his uncle's house in 1942 Jixian County, where he spent a miserable childhood with his sister. Haoran/kloc-joined the revolutionary work in 0/946, and began to aspire to literary creation at the age of 0/7. After only three years of primary school, he studied hard and wrote hard while working, and embarked on the road of self-study. He took the oath of "going deep into the countryside all his life, writing about farmers all his life, and being a loyal spokesman for farmers all his life" and spent 50 years of hard life savings and artistic accomplishment in rural areas in eastern Hebei and Beijing suburbs. His achievements are naturally recognized by the world.
1986165438+10. In October, he and his wife came to Sanhe to live in depth, and first worked as deputy mayors in Duanjialing Town. 1May, 1987, approved by the meeting of the CPPCC in Sanhe County, and was appointed honorary chairman of the CPPCC. 1987 autumn, elected honorary mayor of Duanjialing Town. /kloc-in the summer of 0/988, the county government built a new house (6 main rooms and 6 inverted rooms) for the Haoran couple in a secluded place in the courtyard of the government guest house. So Haoran settled down here, named the bedroom "Niwo", and wrote by himself on the side of the yard, meaning "laying eggs" (writing works) and "incubating young" (raising literary writers).
Sanhe city (county) Party committee and government have always been very concerned about Haoran's life and health, and often go to the "Niwo" to be caring and attentive to solve practical difficulties. In view of childlessness and his wife's infirmity, Haoran arranged for his niece and son-in-law to live in the countryside with him, and the Sanhe county government solved their work problems and handled farmers. After the Federation was founded, the county government provided Haoran with a "Volga" sleeping car and a full-time driver. 1at the beginning of 993, the county magistrate raised funds in various ways and bought Haoran a new Audi car. City (county) Finance Bureau also repaired Haoran's house in time, and provided necessary office equipment and reception conditions, which facilitated his work.
Haoran participates in necessary social activities every day, writes at his desk, reads and revises the author's manuscript and reads newspapers every day. In my spare time, I practice calligraphy, listen to the recordings of Beijing Opera and sometimes take a walk. He is very concerned about the country's political and economic situation and insists on watching CCTV news broadcast and focus interview every day.
1On June 5th, 993, Haoran had a sudden cerebral thrombosis and was admitted to the 263 Hospital of Tongxian County on June 7th, 65438. Sanhe city No.5 Team * * and people from all walks of life visited for many times. During his hospitalization, he still paid attention to the "literary greening project", presided over two office meetings of the chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles in his ward, and also reviewed and revised a large number of authors' manuscripts.
19961On October 22nd, Haoran went to Xi 'an to write. 1654381October 4th, a sudden cerebral coma lasted for three days and two nights. The hospital issued a critical notice. After the rescue, he was out of danger. 165438+1October 10, the secretary of Sanhe Municipal Party Committee sent the Minister of Propaganda, the Secretary-General of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the Director of Culture to visit Haoran in An. 165438+1On October 23rd, Haoran was discharged from the hospital and returned to Beijing from Xi 'an.
1On August 8th, 1998, Haoran and his wife moved into a newly-built two-story building with a single house and a single courtyard, which covers an area of 200 square meters and is located in Juhewan, north of Sanhe, with a comfortable and quiet environment and elegant decoration. On May 26th, 1999, Sun Diangao, the new member of the Standing Committee of Langfang Municipal Committee and secretary of Sanhe Municipal Committee, visited Haoran in Juhewan, bringing sincere greetings from the Party and the government. Sanhe city Mayor Li Hongwei and other city leaders also visited Haoran many times. Writers and politicians have forged a deep friendship.
During the spring and autumn period of Sanhe for more than ten years, Haoran wrote and published eight novels with a total of 3.3 million words, revised and reprinted seven novels with a total of 4.83 million words, and wrote a large number of articles such as literary criticism. His creative life is dominated by "Niwo", and he has also set foot in Tongxian, Miyun, Pinggu, Langfang and Lechang in the suburbs of Beijing.
He founded sanhe city (county) Federation of Literary and Art Circles and sanhe city (county) Writers Association, and personally served as the chairmen of the two associations. He founded Literature of the Disadvantaged for ten years, providing a garden for amateur authors to publish their works, running around, raising funds for key authors and publishing special collections. He also personally prefaced their books, trained a large number of new scholars, published a series of books on earth literature and literary greening to fill the gaps in the history of Sanhe literature, and established the Haoran Literature Foundation and the Board of Directors for the Literature of Disadvantaged Groups, actively raising funds for the literary greening project, for sanhe city and its surrounding areas and even. Among the writers who are "hot" and "red" in China's literary world today, who can make wedding dresses for others? Who wants to be a paving stone?
Haoran deserves our praise.
representative works

Peer review
"Haoran is definitely not a person who caters to power, but a writer with strict style, diligence and self-discipline and high moral standards." Qi Shuying, a famous writer, once wrote in an article published in 1999, "The Literary World of Integrity and Smiling-Looking for the Footprints of Integrity". Qi Shuying heard the sad news of Haoran's death, and her eyes filled with tears. She and Haoran entered Hebei Youth League School in the same year and became alumni. Later, they worked in Hebei Daily, became colleagues, and forged a deep friendship with Haoran. She told reporters about the dribs and drabs that Haoran admired and moved before his death.
Determined to be a writer
195 1 year, Qi Shuying and Ran He went to Hebei Youth League School at the same time. There was no dining room in the school at that time. After eating together, they squatted on the ground and talked about their ideals while eating. Because the conversation was speculative, they soon agreed to the topic of becoming writers. After graduation, Ran He and Qi Shuying came to work in Hebei Daily. After becoming colleagues, they have more common topics and established a profound friendship. Later, after Haoran was transferred to Beijing to work, he created Sunny Day. Twenty years later 1973, Qi Shuying went to Jixian for an interview and met Haoran at the dinner table of the county guest house. At that time, Haoran was experiencing life in Jixian County, so he chatted with his old friends whom he hadn't seen for many years. Qi Shuying said that she told Haoran that he had realized his dream-a writer and a journalist. "Anyway, Haoran is always approachable, very honest and has never lost his temper." Qi Shuying recalled, "According to the current words, he is already a celebrity and a big shot, but he has never put on airs and looks very kind. Even when talking to a girl, he will blush first. "
Students are giving lectures in the university.
A German sinologist once commented that Sunny Day is "a swan song to describe the life of farmers in China." At that time, the publication of Sunny Days also caused a shock in the literary world of China. Some critics said, "Haoran always goes to the countryside so tirelessly, so tirelessly writes about farmers and praises them." But it was Haoran who wrote such a work. He was just a person who had only attended primary school for three years. Qi Shuying commented on Haoran like this. Although I have only been in primary school for three years, I can finally give lectures in universities in Beijing, and it is particularly popular. According to Qi Shuying, Haoran still couldn't let go of his studies after dropping out of school. The book that the village aunt used to clip shoes is his best reading. As soon as he heard that someone had a library, he ran to borrow it. After reading the book in his village, he borrowed it from a neighboring village. In this way, he put The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, The Legend of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, The Water Margin and The List of Gods.
Keep your true colors, don't be picky about food and clothes.
Speaking of integrity in life, Qi Shuying said: "He has always maintained the true nature of a farmer and never picky about food and clothing. Once I went to his house, he invited me to dinner, eat fried dough sticks and drink millet porridge. He is dressed very casually and casually, which is an ordinary Chinese tunic suit. " Recalling the time of studying and working together, Qi Shuying said admiringly: "His style is particularly high. During our study at school, we ate from the same pot. I don't like tofu, so I picked it for him. He put the meat in my bowl and gave it to me. " In writing, Haoran never stopped writing, and he was never interfered by the outside world. When he was a reporter at Tongzhou reporter station, he was on duty during the Spring Festival one year. Others beat gongs and drums to sing a ditty, and he was busy writing. In life, Haoran is very low-key, rarely participates in social activities, and has always maintained a noble personality and adhered to his own life creed. After getting sick in his later years, he really couldn't write any more, so Haoran focused on cultivating literary youth and founded the magazine Literature of Disadvantaged Groups, which built a good platform for literary youth, especially in rural areas.
Reaction of all parties
Liang Hongye: My father taught me to be a man.
Being ill in bed for many years, Liang's children have already been psychologically prepared for their father's departure. "I knew this day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come. It pains me to think that this farewell will last forever. " Haoran's daughter Liang Chunshui said sadly.
To outsiders, being the son of a famous writer is a wonderful thing. Liang Hongye, Haoran's eldest son, doesn't think so: "In my eyes, he will always be a father, not a writer with a halo." Liang Hongye said that he had read his father's works since he was a child, especially on sunny days. When he was a teenager, he watched them repeatedly. "The more I look at them, the more interesting they become. This has taught me a lot about being a man. " As a writer, Haoran didn't ask his children to be creative like him in the future. "My father is very open-minded and respects our choice. He often tells us that he should not always think about being rich and expensive. Peace, harmony and health are his greatest expectations for children. "
Liang Hongye said that his father's greatest influence on him was to teach him to be a good eldest son. "When I was a child, I was fierce and always quarreled with my brother and sister. One day, my father told me earnestly that as a big brother, you have the responsibility and love to take care of your younger brothers and sisters. They are your relatives. I didn't understand what he said at that time, and then one day, I suddenly understood what he meant. Our brother and sister have got along very well so far. "
Liang: He has a writer's conscience.
Liang has no friendship with Haoran. "We have only met twice." However, Haoran's works have long been familiar to Liang. "In the early years, as an educated youth, I read many works of integrity when I was in the Great Northern Wilderness. The most familiar is his "The Magpie Climbs the Branch". At that time, in order to master the writing skills, a group of young artists also discussed an awe-inspiring children's novel, which benefited a lot. " Liang said.
According to Liang, he and Haoran met at a dinner in the mid-1990s. "At that time, I sat next to him and only had a short conversation in the dining room, but through words, I could feel that he was a kind person, simple and sincere, which left a deep impression on me."
In Liang's view, Haoran's works during the Cultural Revolution, including Children of Xisha, are indeed very close to politics. "But at that time, he was completely out of his control, and he was also trapped by the times. I can understand him. " Liang believes that Haoran, who was thrown high above the times in those years, still maintains his conscience as a writer and has not done anything out of line like some dignitaries, which is commendable.
Xiao Fuxing: Mistakes or contributions are peasant-style.
Xiao Fuxing first met Haoran 20 years ago. "At that time, he and I were invited to Tianjin to revise the manuscript for young writers. We live on the same floor of the first guest house in Tianjin, and we chat together at night when we have nothing to do. We had a good time during that time. " Xiao Fuxing said that when I heard Haoran's name, I didn't expect him to be so modest and approachable.
The biggest feeling that Xiao Fuxing and Haoran get along with each other is that they are very frank. "We unconsciously talked about what happened to him during the Cultural Revolution. Regarding his creation and his own thinking about current events, I can feel that his heart was contradictory, hesitant and struggling at that time. On the one hand, he is reflecting on his past actions. On the other hand, he has to face the future, how to cheer up and make a comeback and join the literary career in the new era. " Xiao Fuxing said.
Xiao Fuxing also said: "He is a farmer, and all his mistakes or contributions are peasant-style." Xiao Fuxing believes that although Haoran's creation was greatly influenced by the political concept at that time, his creation always cared about farmers and people's livelihood.
Radar: The Last Singer of "Seventeen Years Literature"
Radar was deeply moved by the news of Haoran's death. "He is also a writer I have been paying attention to for a long time. I wrote a paper about his creation in my early years. " In Radar's view, Haoran is an important writer in the history of contemporary literature, and his Sunny Days has great research value and cognitive value in the history of literature. "Although it has the color of serving the politics and class struggle at that time and distorting life, due to the author's familiarity with farmers in China and people's understanding, some of the main characters it created are still flesh and blood, which is quite commendable. Looking at his creation, we can see that he is a writer with conscience and people's consciousness. " Radar said.
At the same time, in view of the tendency of Haoran's works to serve the politics at that time, Radar thinks that Haoran is the last singer of "Seventeen Years Literature". "All the works, including" The Cotai Strip ",gave a distinct label to Haoran's creation, which was too close to the political consciousness at that time. For a writer who is really engaged in literary creation, it goes without saying. But Haoran doesn't seem to be fully aware of this. He is sincere and stubborn. " Radar said that Haoran also made great efforts after the Cultural Revolution and created some influential works, such as Vulnerable Groups.
Social assessment
He is enthusiastic about Beijing's literary and artistic undertakings and is committed to discovering, cultivating and bringing up literary and artistic talents and prospering Beijing's literary and artistic creation. He implemented the "literary greening" project in the suburbs of Beijing and Sanhe County, Hebei Province, and achieved fruitful results. It is highly praised by writers and literary lovers in the suburbs of Beijing, and is regarded as a kind act and feat with boundless merits and far-reaching significance. His strong "literary greening complex" and the spirit of giving up his life for the ladder are worth remembering and learning by future generations forever. "Writing about farmers, writing for farmers", "going deep into the countryside for a lifetime, writing about farmers for a lifetime, and being a down-to-earth spokesperson for farmers for a lifetime" are his life vows and goals. Some scholars have commented that his works are "vivid pictures of rural areas in China in the past half century", "write the two-way truth between individuals and society", "unpretentious autobiography gives people a brilliant artistic feeling" and "have historical and artistic value".
