On the morning of June 29th, the second "Haiyou Talent Festival" Jinan Library Reading Sharing Meeting was successfully held in the Haiyou Library, the central building of the Municipal Library. The famous writer Fang Yuan gave a wonderful sharing with the readers on the topic of "Literature Enriches Life". During the event, Fang Yuan shared his literary growth experience with everyone in the way he is good at storytelling.
Fang Yuan talked about his personal literary growth experience, combined with the creative process of the novels "The Great River Flows into the Sea", "The Big Fleet", the novella "Love in the Crack of the Door" and "The Wall Has Ears", and shared his creative experience about the conception of the work, preliminary preparation, story structure, reading orientation, magazine selection, etc., as well as the life insights that run through it, giving people profound inspiration and rich lessons.
Fang Yuan said: "The threshold is a wonderful thing, if you step over, you will go up the steps, and the previous painful process will pass. But no one can say where this threshold is, and you need to find out where it is through persistent learning. After crossing this threshold, the confidence was there, and the manuscript was basically published. Fang Yuan sighed to readers, "Literature has changed my life, not only because it has changed my work and given me food, but also because it has changed some key things in my life." The greatest education that literature has taught me is that I have a bottom line in life. ”
Experience is a writer's greatest literary wealth, which has been best verified by Fang Yuan. His keen perception and ability to make up stories also make his unique growth experience the best yeast for literary creation. According to Fang Yuan, he first started to create urban themes, which came from a special growth experience. Fangyuan, who was born in the city and grew up in the countryside, returned to Jinan at the age of 15, was often ridiculed by his classmates because of his "mouthful of county dialect". The impact or harm of this difference between urban and rural areas on a teenager must be unforgettable. But now, Fang Yuan is very grateful for this experience, "looking at the people and things in the city from the perspective of a countryman, it will be fresher, rather than the people who grew up in the city may turn a blind eye."
Li Jingze, a well-known critic and vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, once commented: "In Chinese literature since the 80s, Fang Yuan is one of the early discoverers and explorers of urban experience. The famous writer Liu Yutang also praised: "Fang Yuan is a master of storytelling and a master of urban themes." The on-site reader said: "Listening to Mr. Fang Yuan's lecture, there are real things, they are all dry goods, there are no empty theories, and they are very practical." In the face of knowledge, no matter what age, I admire Mr. Fang Yuan's learning spirit, and I want to learn from him. ”
