I believe that many post-80s and post-90s are not unfamiliar with the name "Zhang Yueran". She once went hand in hand with Guo Jingming and Han Han to jointly create a temple of youth trauma literature.
Today, these 3 young adult fiction writers who are almost confused have embarked on a completely different life trajectory. Han Han and Guo Jingming grew from writers of stories to shoot stories, gaining fame and profit, and mixing well in the entertainment industry. Zhang Yueran gave up the pursuit of creative speed, readjusted the direction, gave himself time to grow, groped forward, and gained literary freedom.
In the interview of "Willing wisdom lecture hall", we found that Zhang Yueran has always been by our side, guarding literature for us.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" > – young and famous, but voluntarily removed the aura</h1>
Zhang Yueran, who is only 14 years old, has published many works with his writing talent, among which works such as "Tao Zhi Meteorite" and "Black Cat Does Not Sleep" were published in "Sprout" magazine, which was like throwing a boulder into the youth literary world, stirring up thousands of ripples. His excellent works have also been reprinted by many newspapers and periodicals such as Xinhua Digest.
In 2001, at the age of 19, Zhang Yueran won the first prize of the third "New Concept Essay Competition" and became famous in one fell swoop. Subsequently, at the speed of almost one book a year, she published "Sunflower Lost in 1890", "Cherry Far Away", "Are You Here to Review My Sorrows", "Ten Loves", "Narcissus Has Gone by Carp", "Oath Bird", each of which was very popular and set off a reading trend among the student community.
In 2006, Zhang Yueran won the 23rd place in the "2006 First Chinese Writers Rich List" with a royalty income of 3 million yuan, which aroused widespread concern in the society. Just when everyone thought that Zhang Yueran would continue to maintain the speed of release of his works and gain fame and fortune, Zhang Yueran took the initiative to unload his identity as a "young literary writer" and hide himself from the public vision.
< h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > - "slow down" and rush to the heart Chinese learning benchmarks</h1>
When the host asked "why did I unload it", Zhang Yueran admitted frankly, "Because I have a literary standard in my heart, this standard was established by reading a lot of classic works in my early years of reading."
Zhang Yueran does not want to output according to the public's ideas, with the frequency of one work a year, because such a speed of publishing books runs counter to the direction of his heart. Instead of galloping on the road that the public is optimistic about, it is better to give up the pursuit of "speed", readjust the direction, give yourself time to grow, grope forward, and gain literary freedom.
Before the speed of "giving up", Zhang Yueran had foreseen that after leaving youth literature, he would lose the readers he once had. However, after the speed under the "she", with the increase of age and the improvement of cognition, Zhang Yueran has a deeper understanding of the "she".
In 2016, Zhang Yueran, who had been silent for 10 years, returned to the public eye with a new novel "Cocoon", which won the second Bookstore Literature Award for Annual Book. Subsequently, "Big Qiao Xiaoqiao", published in 2017, won the 2017 Wang Zengqi Chinese Novel Award Novella Award; was selected as a candidate for the 3rd Chinese Young Writers Award; and won the "First Wang Zengqi Chinese Novel Award" Novella Award.
These honors are enough to prove that Zhang Yueran's "house" is correct. Although it is still far from the benchmark of Chinese learning, Zhang Yueran at this moment is free and sober to enjoy the happiness brought to her by literature.
In the face of the sunshine road that can go faster, there are very few people who can say "no". But it is only a small number of people who, in a limited life, feel life and realize the meaning of life. In the new year, let's put down the speed and cherish the beautiful moments in life.
