In 1997, Li Yinhe, "China's first sexologist", heard that her husband Wang Xiaobo had died suddenly, and she was devastated when she was far away, and a few days later, when she and her friends sent Wang Xiaobo's body to the crematorium, who wanted the machine to suddenly stop running, the staff took a look at it and said softly: "This gentleman, I don't want your things, please help." ”
At that time, 45-year-old Wang Xiaobo lived alone in his home in Beijing's Xiaoqu District, a few hours before his death, still in code words, according to an editor recalled that he received a fax from Wang Xiaobo, but it was blank twice in a row, and he had never encountered such a thing before, and he called Wang Xiaobo to hope that he would re-transmit it.
Wang Xiaobo was very confused, and he said in his mouth that I had not reversed it, and when it came for the third time, it was finally normal. But a few hours later, the upstairs neighbors heard a heart-rending scream from Wang Xiaobo's room, and it was late at night.
But just when they wanted to go downstairs to check it out, there was no more movement.
It wasn't until the next day that the neighbors who realized after their inception knew that this was Wang Xiaobo's cry for help before he died, and when they saw Wang Xiaobo again, they saw that his body was bowed in the corner of the wall, his face was iron blue and his lips were black, his teeth were still bloody, and his entire face looked abominable, looking at the wall ash scattered on the ground, everyone was very distressed, and he must have been in pain before he died.
Li Yinhe, who was interviewing abroad, after receiving his sister's call, suddenly collapsed on the ground, how did a good person suddenly leave? In the 20 years since they were married, they have never had a red face or quarreled, like a pair of fairy lovers.
Thinking of Wang Xiaobo's despair and helplessness before his death, Li Yinhe's heart was like a stranglehold, and the forensic doctor gave the conclusion that Wang Xiaobo was heart failure caused by a dead plug.
At that time, Wang Xiaobo's brothers were also abroad, and there was only an elderly mother in Beijing, and although he was a writer before he died, he did not join any writers' associations, Wang Xiaobo once joked: "I heard that there is a writers' association, but I don't know where his door is." ”
Wang Xiaobo's funeral was cooked thanks to the help of his good friend Hu Bei and others.
After the memorial service, they tearfully sent Wang Xiaobo's body to the crematorium, but no one expected that the "First Furnace in the Far East", which was originally a good end, suddenly failed, and when the operator pressed the switch, there was no movement.
The crowd was very puzzled, who wanted the staff to take a look, and then said softly: "This gentleman, I don't want what you brought, please do me a favor." ”
There is a local custom that the family will generally buy a cigarette and a bottle of wine for the master of the operation, and Hu Bei, at the suggestion of this master, put Wang Xiaobo's exposed feet on the outside, and then covered the cover of the "Golden Age" printed overnight on Wang Xiaobo's body, and when the machine was started again, this time it was a raging fire after a while.
Looking at Wang Xiaobo, who was instantly reduced to ashes, the crowd lost their voices and cried bitterly.
Recalling the scene at that time, Hu Bei said that Wang Xiaobo was reluctant to leave, and he still had a wish!
So what kind of person is Wang Xiaobo?
In the eyes of his wife, he is an ugly man, but he is the most interesting and lovely man, when Li Yinhe thought he was not handsome enough, rejected his confession, Wang Xiaobo relied on his talent to knock on the door of Li Yinhe's closed heart.
His love letters are the most touching love words in the world, and Li Yinhe said that even people with iron hearts will be touched by him.
Thinking of you, my ugly face will smile. Hello Wow! Lee Yinhe!
Knowing that Li Yinhe thought he was ugly, he said angrily and jokingly: "You really should go to the zoo to see, am I better looking than the reptiles there." ”
When he was young, Wang Xiaobo once went to the countryside as a Zhiqing, liked to read novels and tell stories, and published a lot of in-depth, humorous, and realistic essays, such as "A Maverick Pig", and his relationship with Li Yinhe was also because of the love novel "Green Hairy Water Monster".
Li Yinhe was plucked by his soul-filled words.
In 1992, Wang Xiaobo spent 20 years to create the novel "Golden Age" loved by readers, but the publishing process was full of twists and turns, only because the content was too avant-garde and bold, many editors regarded it as "the best in the world", in that era of sexual discoloration, they were reluctant to fight the battle of uncertainty.
Wang Xiaobo in the "Golden Age" used a lot of inner monologues, the male protagonist Wang Er and female doctors dozens of times of male and female love, each time his inner activities are different, although the description is very straightforward, but it makes people feel very clean, pure, someone described Wang Xiaobo's words: "There is elegance in the air, just like the atomic bomb can directly hit people's souls." ”
Good works can always meet Bole, and Wang Xiaobo is pleased that "The Golden Age" was published in Taiwan and won a prize of 200,000 yuan, and Wang Xiaobo also believes that sooner or later China will accept this novel.
Unfortunately, he did not wait for this day, he died suddenly, although he was a writer before his death, but no writer gave him the last journey at his funeral, ironically, three months after Wang Xiaobo's death, he became popular all over the world.
The once unrecognized Golden Age became a sought-after work. How would Wang Xiaobo, who was lonely and nameless before his death and who was canonized after his death, feel if he knew about Izumishita?
In addition to writing novels, Wang Xiaobo also writes essays, and readers praise his essays, comparing him to Lu Xun, and his collection of essays, "The Silent Majority", is second only to Lu Yao's "Ordinary Life" in the university library.
The reason why Wang Xiaobo's works can be so popular is related to his own personality, reading his words will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you reminisce endlessly.
When I first read it, it was easy to look at it as a "little yellow text", but when I looked at it again, I found that in addition to his personality, his characters were actually more "beautiful", an undisguised beauty and truth.
Bai Hua, deputy editor of the China Social Sciences Publishing House, said: The Golden Age has shot all the previous novels!
Today, the "Golden Age Trilogy" has been reprinted more than 10 times, sold nearly 10 million copies, and the "Wang Xiaobo fever" has repeatedly heated up, and the residual heat has not yet gone. Why does Wang Xiaobo's book last so long? Lu Yu said that because it describes the eternal human nature.
Good books and gentlemen!
