Writer Liang Xiaosheng taught Hubei writers: the side of realistic works should also show the "what should people do"

The senior seminars of the Hubei writer of Lu Xun Literary School opened a class in Han. On the morning of September 24th, the famous writer Liang Xiaosheng came to Han to teach in the training class to talk to Li Shidong, the president of "Youth Literature" magazine.

Liang Xiaosheng, the same age with New China, was born in Harbin. He worked in the Heilongjiang Production and Construction Corps during his youth. He studied at the Chinese Department of Fudan University in the mid -to -late 1970s. Later, he worked in literary editing in Beijing Film Studio. Beijing Language and Culture University. He has created "This is a magical land", "Tonight Snow Snow", "Annual Wheel", and "Analysis of Chinese Society" and other literary works that influenced generations of Chinese people. Earlier this year, the TV series adapted from Liang Xiaosheng won the Mao Dun Literature Award "The World" was broadcast on CCTV, which aroused widespread attention in the society and became a phenomenal cultural hotspot.

At the lecture site, Liang Xiaosheng was wearing a green jacket, his eyes was like a torch, and he faced more than 100 young and middle -aged writers in Hubei with his consistent severe expression. In the explanation of the long -term words, he emphasized "the kindness you think about others", and revealing the compassion of compassion.

Your own creation benefits from diversified reading and exchanges with the predecessors of the North Film Factory

Liang Xiaosheng said that the relationship between literature and writers is a question that everyone cares about. He feels first related to his reading history. The type of contact with literature, including what the items are, have an impact on their future literary concepts. The second aspect is the concept of literature, and the third aspect is the creative experience.

Even if you are writing novels, you like to read prose, sometimes you can write about reporting literature, and you do not even rule out that you like to listen to opera and like to enjoy dramas. These may form the concept of literature, or at least it has an impact on the realistic literary concept. At that time, there was a benefit of us. You want to read which writer only reads. At that time, there were not many works published at that time. It is close to all read. The translation works of that period were all famous books, and it was quite concentrated in the period of the 18th and 19th centuries. stage.

His creation also benefited from communicating with colleagues in the Beijing Film Factory. Including Sister Jiang's old actor, her gentleman is the original director of the film factory, and Tian Zhuangzhuang is their son. There are also exchanges with Ge You's parents, Chen Kaige's father and others. At that time, he was very young. He talked about movies with his predecessors in these film industry, and talked about the differences in movies and literature. For example, movies emphasized more emphasis on characters than literature. His future creation has an impact.

In addition, early movies pay attention to details, which are all serving characters. Many of our current movies are in a limited period of time. We must constantly conflict and plug in more plots to satisfy people’s kind of kind. Modernity of viewing. These will form my creative style.

There must be "the kindness for others"

Regarding the relationship between literature and people, Liang Xiaosheng said that he had said four words, the last sentence was "the kindness for others". He felt that in the process of at least with the publishing agency, he often reminded them that they are selling well now, don't be impulsive, don't print more, restrain a little, don't stagnate there.

Before 1949, the president of Anhui University Liu Wendian, a scholar who studied traditional culture. There are a lot of interesting things about him. He talks more about literary appreciation, mainly poetry, and his students like to create. Ask him if he can talk about it. After a few days later, he wrote "Guanyin Bodhisattva" on the blackboard, saying that all literature includes in these 5 words. Observation is observation; the world is to have the mood of entering the WTO and the birth of the world; the sound is a modified word; the Bodhisattva is to pay attention to all beings, and to have a warm heart.

Writers in ancient and modern Chinese and foreign writers, Pu Songling is like this, Hugo and Tolstoy should be like this, Turgenev is like this, Dickens is like this, including Hardy's writing "Tess" like this, Sitangda wrote " "Red and Black" is like this. They all have a relatively warm feeling of paying attention to their destiny. If literature is only understood as a technical thing, and a lack of a caring and temperature for life, no matter how long it is to toss in the circle of skills, it is not seen.

Why do you propose the concept of good people literature

"Why do people read novels? Because no one can be able to understand the entire life through the limited people in the reality of their own contact with themselves."

In Liang Xiaosheng's view, when you do not read the fate of more others, your love is frustrated, the workplace is frustrated, and the lottery has bought so many times without winning. You will think that you are the most unfortunate person in the world. When you read more, the more people you like at this time, you will not think I am so successful. Because if you want to contribute to society itself, how many people are obscure? Medical workers, scientists, and even our courier brothers in this era may not be less important than your writer themselves, they are equally important for society.

"This is why I put forward the concept of good people literature."

Liang Xiaosheng told Wang Liulang's story in "Liao Zhai Zhi Yi". When a fisherman fishing by the river, he would think of how many people who lost enough water in the river, he first voted for a few glasses of wine to respect the river and prayed for the undead spirit. Get out early. Later, a teenager Wang Liulang was drinking with him in the river. The two were familiar, and the fisherman knew that Wang Liulang was not an ordinary person and was a water ghost. After the last drink, the fisherman sneaked into the grass by the river to observe what was going on. As a result, the next day, a mother was holding a child. She walked towards the river and was beaten back by Dalang three times. He was strange, asking Liulang why? Liulang said that yesterday was the mother and son. He couldn't live with his own life with his two lives.

Liang Xiaosheng said that when he was a teenager, he read this work and was shocked. For what kind of state can reach one realm of human nature, for Liulang, the opportunity to be born next time may be a few years later, after a few decades, decades later, it may be a thousand years later. But a teenager can make such a choice, and he can see Pu Songling's realm as a person.

"Can Pu Songling write a novel and move me. Can I write a novel in the future to move others? When there are more such works, will there be a good life for our real life?"

Liang Xiaosheng raised several examples. The teenager in Gorky's works took out his heart as a torch, illuminating the road of the tribe, and finally fell into a little star everywhere. Tugenev's prose poem "Threshold", wrote a young woman. If she pushed the door away, she would lose her loved ones, lose love, and even her own life. She was questioned again and again. Push away.

"She is not us, nor the people we know, not the people we are familiar with, we can't do it, and even most of the people I know may not do it. But this does not mean that there is no such thing in life. People, they clearly exist. "

Liang Xiaosheng said that he understood it as a realism. Realism is not just about writing people in reality. The people you see are in reality, and people in reality are not just like this. There are so many people in reality, Zhou Bingkun in "The World" is such a person. Realist literature is actually two types: what people are in reality, and in reality, for responsibility and mission, what should be done and to what extent.

If literature is written in reality, it is limited to every writer. You didn't see what kind of people who did it in reality, and you only saw those who failed in reality. If you repeatedly write, it is equivalent to only half of the reality.

The new work "Father and Son" has compressed the story of several generations to 300,000 words

In the question session of the students, some students said that "The World" used a family perspective, showing the history of the Chinese people's half -century life, so that each character has a clear personality, warmth, bright, life suffering and pair The longing of life, everyone moved the audience. The trainees asked Liang Xiaosheng's novel creation how to choose the perspective, how can we grasp a unique perspective?

Liang Xiaosheng used the commonly used "dear comrades" to call the students who asked questions. He said that each work is different. For example, the novel "Father and Son" he will launch in November, from 1937, was written until the early 1980s, and wrote generations.

After writing and one generation, the novel will be very long, but it will compress it to 300,000 words. Everyone will be confused about such a long period of time. How can it be compressed to 300,000 words? That is the change of perspective. If you write your parents 'experience, write the parents' words and deeds from the perspective of "I", and write "I" in the next chapter. After writing the son, the son is growing, and what the son sees in the eyes of the son. Choose the perspective you want to use, the rhythm will be faster.

There is a clip in the novel "The World" novel. Mrs. Jin took a wheelchair to the light -like sheet. There was a plot. She was pushed by aunt. The road was very narrow. When she met Zhou Bingkun on the road, they did not know. Give Way. Mrs. Jin let her aunt stop and pour back, and thank Zhou Bingkun. Thank you. "This is the details we talk about. It is not a conflict, not a contradiction, it is life. Literary works are not the original life after all. Of course, it must highlight the contradictions and conflicts. The breath is packed in the details of life, making readers feel that life has come, not naked contradictions. Our current film and television creation may be the problem to emphasize this conflict. Many film and television dramas lack the lack of film and television dramas. The texture of life, bare, conflict for conflict. "

Liang Xiaosheng said that his creation, his requirements for himself, at least to let readers read on page 50, forget to read a novel, and feel that he has entered a life instead of showing the writer himself.
