In the more than 30 years since Liu Zhenyun's creation, his works have been classified into three major series: "Hometown" series ("Hometown Noodles and Flowers", "Hometown Yellow Flowers", "Hometown Together"), "I" series ("My Name is Liu Yuejin", "I Am Not Pan Jinlian") and "One" series ("One Place Chicken Feathers", "One Nonsense", "One Sentence Top 10,000 Sentences"). In July 2021, Liu Zhenyun's "One" series has a new chapter! As a new chapter in the "One" series, "One Day, Three Autumns" is co-published by the brand "Cultural Interesting" of Beijing Yangtze River New Century and Huacheng Publishing House. Before printing, the publisher produced 100 trial books, which were randomly invited to a number of readers and critics. The trial book was well received. Many readers believe that it conveys the charm of the legend of Chinese gods and monsters, and the magic of reason has not been seen since the Ming and Qing dynasties, calling it Liu Zhenyun "another creative peak after Mao Award's work "One Sentence Top 10,000 Sentences".
Consistent Liu Zhenyun style: cold humor + philosophy in secular life
Readers familiar with Liu Zhenyun know that his novels are humorous and wise, and he is good at salvaging the stories of the nameless people from the family names. "One Day and Three Autumns" quotes the legend of the folk "Flower Second Lady", describes the paintings painted by the sixth uncle in "my" memory with imaginary stories, and explores the nature of humor in Yanjin (Liu Zhenyun's hometown in Henan). Uncle Liu's paintings, with the theme of Yanjin Personnel Affairs, are both everyday and ghostly, both realistic and postmodern, and are deeply loved by the writer "I". After the death of Uncle Six, Aunt Six burned all his paintings, and out of commemoration, "I" wrote this novel based on the paintings of Uncle Six in my memory. The multiple contradictions in the painting, such as outside the painting, outside the drama, outside the dream, the hometown and the historical present, interpret the multiple meanings of "one day and three autumns". As always, this novel, like the previous Liu Zhenyun novels, is full of cold humor, the philosophy contained in secular life, and uses a joke of up to 10,000 sentences to break the seriousness and ease of life, instant and eternity. Liu Zhenyun makes readers realize that there is no need to import the literary concept of "magic realism" in Latin America, and the reality of his hometown of Yanjin is the existence of magic.
Immersive drama style debut Famous actor Guo Tao participated
On July 17, the publisher held an immersive launch ceremony for "One Day and Three Autumns" at the Beijing Gulou West Theater. Readers walk into the scene of the press conference and immerse themselves in the visual situation of Liu Zhenyun's works, and art forms such as recitation, dance, and micro-drama present the characters in the novel in three dimensions to the readers, providing a more substitutionary and viewing theater experience for the debut of the new book. After that, The author Liu Zhenyun, hosted by Shi Hang, and the critic Li Jingze conducted an in-depth literary dialogue.
Liu Zhenyun
In the Gulou West Theater, the reader seems to have traveled through Liu Zhenyun's three works in the theater: the Italian priest Lao Zhan (Bian Yujie) in "One Sentence top 10,000 Sentences" tells helplessness with a monologue, Xiaolin (dancer Liu Shang, reciter Jiang Lihao) in "A Place of Chicken Feathers" expresses confusion with dance; "One Day and Three Autumns" is a micro-drama that interprets a complete plot that exists in the novel with an appendix. Drama director He Yufan plays a well-informed guest. Screenwriter and planner Shi Hang guest starred as antique dealer Lao Jing, Gulou West Theater invited the famous actor Guo Tao to play the carpenter Lao Jin, and the author Liu Zhenyun also appeared on the stage as a reader. Professional lighting, choreography, and costumes are nothing more than a rehearsal clip of a complete drama version of "One Day and Three Autumns".

Li Jingze saw tears after watching it all night:
Wrote a "real Chinese story"
In Li Jingze's view, "Three Autumns in One Day" is Liu Zhenyun's autumn writing, which is as inclusive and mature as autumn. "Liu Zhenyun's novel is a true story of Chinese, and there are Chinese most rooted and deepest experiences and emotions in the novel. The theme is complex, but the tempering of the hundred steel is soft around the fingers, particularly deep, and also particularly calm and natural. At the bottom of Chinese life, the bottom of emotion, the silent experience and situation of really constant operation, Chinese literature since modern times has not been handled well, not fully named, Liu Zhenyun handled it with a subtle and broad, urgent and complicated string, a flute of cool moon. Li Jingze revealed that he really finished reading "One Day and Three Autumns" in one breath, and saw that at three o'clock in the night, "People have many tears, I used to read Zhenyun's books, there was a lot of fun." As a result, when I read this book last night, it was quiet in the middle of the night, it was raining outside from time to time, and the old tears came down in one line or two lines. ”
Li Jingze also carefully analyzed the new work, "In the whole novel, it involves a lot of the most basic and deepest experiences of the heart as a Chinese, such as thoughts. The thought itself is not just that I am thinking about someone, but that I am living my own meaningful life. There doesn't seem to be the word 'thoughts' in Western literature. ”
In the view of Zhang Xudong, a professor in the Department of East Asian Studies at New York University, "'One Day, Three Autumns' is worthy of another peak after "One Sentence Top 10,000 Sentences". It is smaller than "Ten Thousand Sentences in One Sentence", but the form is purer and the narrative is more flexible, so the space for literary imagination and expression is larger. ”
Writer and critic Qiu Huadong also believes that Liu Zhenyun's novel "One Day and Three Autumns" is a masterpiece, "In his new work, the wonderful story has the most daily starting point." In the most homely writing, it presents the richness and vividness of human life and endless possibilities, maintains the dignity of the novel's great narrative ability, and presents a wealth of life experience and life value. ”
