In this era, the most popular type of people are naturally performing artists.

In the eyes of some people, some national events are not even as good as the gossip news of a star.

The death of a hero of the War of Resistance Against Japan is not as good as the injury of a singer.

Today, with networking, capital has a relatively large voice, and the direction of guiding public opinion is worrying.

Just like Guo Dalu, in fact, in terms of the quality and depth of his works, the "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" he wrote now cannot compare with Tiesheng's works at all.

Whether it is the depth and breadth of the work, or the emotions revealed in the text, martial arts is not bad.

But writing well may not necessarily sell well!

The deepening of literature will inevitably lead to the difficulty of reading words and sentences, which hinders the pleasure of reading.

This kind of meticulous article needs to be read slowly. If you read it at a glance, you will naturally not be able to experience the beauty. However, in today's impetuous society, fewer and fewer people can really calm down and read it, and the fast food culture of fast food is beginning to rise.

People nowadays read books just to relax and do not expect to draw any nutrition from them. As long as they write fresh and interesting, they are willing to spend money on it.

In contrast, although some books written by traditional authors have taken a lot of time and think that they have a certain level of ideological and literary nature, their sentences are difficult and the plot is slow, which is naturally not popular among most readers.

The reader is not the author, and the literary literacy and reading depth are very different from the author group.

Most readers still like to read more relaxed articles. It is impossible for serious literature to do popular literature in the market.

Just like Tiesheng's works, although everyone applauds, they are not very popular.

The fees he has received for more than 20 years of writing are basically the royalties and literary awards, and as for royalties, there are very few.

Traditional literature is gradually entering a period of death. If you want to grow and grow, you can only look forward to the next rebirth from the ashes.

If it follows the normal trajectory, the sales of Tiesheng's portfolio may exceed that of some traditional writers, but it will never be popular.

But with Guo Dalu's assist, the popularity and sales of this collection spread in China at a striking speed. Many readers and fans of Guo Dalu became interested in this life-strong author.

Most of them have never read Tiesheng's works or heard of this person's name. But after reading his life online, they were immediately moved by him. When Tiesheng's works started to be sold, most of them paid for a set.

The reason why these people bought Tiesheng's works was not for the sake of the work itself, but for the hard life of Tiesheng and his strong qualities.

Of course, the most important thing is Guo Dalu's influence. If it weren't for the help of Guo Dalu, no one would be interested in such a writer.

The writers who can even admire Guo Dalu naturally need to understand and understand them well, and then they saw the long preface written by Guo Dalu for his collection.

Guo Dalu wrote at the beginning of the preface:

It is difficult to have a definite definition of what life is from ancient times to the present, but its existence is unquestionable.

Although the groups of life have been reproductive, individuals always die, and no one can escape, including you and me.

This is cruel and real, and it is the ultimate problem that everyone must face and will eventually face.

Life can only be regarded as a process. For an actor, he is a movie or a TV series. For an actor, life is a big drama. For the author, it should be regarded as a book. The thickness of this book is related to his wisdom experience.

The movie will eventually end, the drama will eventually end, and the book will be finished.

Just like the fire of life, one day, it will eventually be extinguished.

Since we cannot escape, how to make ourselves calm or exciting in this process during the performance or reading is what we need to do...

Tiesheng did this very well. Perhaps because of the long-term illness and torture that he has suffered, he can get closer to the essence of life, so he has a unique understanding of life itself.

He has read the great book of life calmly, and what is revealed from his pen is exactly what many of us need but cannot explain.

His works are suitable for recommendations to anyone, regardless of their status, because life itself does not have high or low status.

If you want to interpret life, it is recommended to start with his works.

The following is a short article I wrote with his vision after reading all his works. This article belongs to him, not to me, and I am just returning it to him now.

After this preface, readers will see the name of an article called "Me and Ditan".

Below the title, people see this article carved by life and wisdom:

one,

I have mentioned an abandoned ancient garden in several articles, which is actually Ditan.

Many years ago, the tourism industry had not yet begun, and the garden was deserted and neglected like a piece of wild land, and was rarely remembered.

Ditan is very close to my home.

Or my home is very close to Ditan.

In short, I had to think that this was fate.

Ditan was located there more than 400 years before I was born. Since my grandmother brought my father to Beijing when she was young, she has been living not far from it - she has moved several times in more than 50 years, but she is always around it, and the closer she evacuated it.

I often feel that there is a sense of fate in the middle: it seems that this ancient garden has been waiting there for more than four hundred years to wait for me.

It waited for me to be born, and then waited for me to live to the most arrogant age and suddenly became disabled.

For more than four hundred years, it has eroded the exaggerated glazed on the eaves of the ancient palace, faded the vermilion on the door wall, collapsed the high walls and scattered with jade carved railings. The old cypress trees around the altar have become more and more secluded, and the wild grass and vines everywhere are lush and free and open.

I guess it's time for me to come.

One afternoon fifteen years ago, I entered the garden with a wheelchair, and it prepared everything for a lost person.

At that time, the sun was getting bigger and redder along the eternal journey. In the quiet light that filled the garden, it was easier for a person to see time and see his own figure.

Since I accidentally entered the garden that afternoon, I have never left it for a long time.

I immediately understood its intention. As I said in one article: "In a densely populated city, there is such a peaceful place, like God's painstaking arrangement."

When Tiesheng's portfolio was selling well, Song Taiping, as vice chairman of the Writers Association, also bought a set out of his own pocket for study purposes. Of course, what he studied was Tiesheng's works, and it had nothing to do with Guo Dalu.

But since I bought this book, I always have to read it.

After opening the book in the office, Song Taiping wanted to turn over Guo Dalu's preface and not read it, but he just watched the main text, but a dissatisfied mentality made him start from scratch.

He made up his mind that as long as Guo Dalu didn't write well, he would have people below post a message to refute it, and he would not make any move forward and provoke Guo Dalu's cannon.

When she saw Guo Dalu’s preface, Song Taiping sneered, “It’s a cliché, nothing new!”

When he saw the title of "I and Ditan", Song Taiping was even more disdainful, "I used Ditan as a gimmick just to attract readers' attention. What's the point? It's sensational!"

When he saw Guo Dalu say "a short article written with Tiesheng's vision", Song Taiping was even more disdainful, "Who do you think you are? You still put yourself into Tiesheng's vision? What a big tone!"

Then he continued to look down, and after this, he looked for nearly half an hour. During this period, his face changed constantly, with surprise and disbelief, and a trace of insignificant admiration.

He kept his eyebrows pinching in the office for a long time, and he was still a little dazed.

It was not until he took out the key and opened the door that he realized that he was still holding the collection of works he had just read.
Chapter completed!
