That close-up live listening was shared by writer Xiao Su in a unique way.

It was late autumn last year, at the end of October. I didn't expect to visit a university, and a very small writer shared it on the spot.

It was Yu Hua's lecture at first, which made me very happy. Later, it was corrected to belong to Xiao Su. To tell the truth, I didn't read his novels at that time, so I quickly charged Baidu. It turns out that he is a famous writer in Hubei Province and an ordinary professor in the college. Coincidentally, he can see real people and listen to them on the spot, which satisfies his inner desire.

Early in the morning, we went to the eighth floor of Xinhua Building of Huazhong Normal University. The room is not big and there are not many people.

First of all, Professor Wu Anxin (only after the introduction did he know that he was a chemist) introduced himself, and "threw a brick to attract jade" to Mr. Xiao Su.

Literature: the end of poetry and human growth is in the distance;

1. Write, smell and taste the breath of life! Accurately, meticulously and euphemistically record and describe the behavior tracks and forms of individuals and groups in life. Reflect the "times"

2. Writing and thinking are the media to visualize people's inner world and brain activities! Materialize intangible things into things that can be communicated. Embody "philosophy"? 」

3.？ Literature and "spirit" are carriers to visualize the empty world of human soul spirit! Materialize the invisible virtual world into something that can be communicated and a world that can be touched. Reflection? "Religion? 」

4.？ Literature, through "color", is a means to paint the plain, dull and indifferent ordinary world colorful, full of business and lively! Can give life rich and colorful, full of harmony and profound connotation. Embody "artistry"

5.？ Literature, through "history", is the messenger who records, collects and transmits the important tracks, events and experiences of human history! Reflect "historical materials"

6.？ Literature, through "teaching", is educated in "goodness"! This "goodness" covers two levels. On the one hand, it describes the integrity of the material world and the empty world, and extends the world of six senses, such as "vision, hearing, touch, smell, taste and perception of ears, nose, eyes, mouth, body and heart", which makes up for the lack of cognition; On the one hand, it is to educate human beings to be kind and altruistic, cultivate self-denial, and repay gifts through literary expressions! Reflect "educational"? 」

——? Wu Anxin concluded

He is a chemist from science, with rigorous logic and a certain knowledge of medical physiology. )

He said the writer is "? A group of knowledgeable, elegant and interesting, insightful, sensitive to six senses, smart language, extraordinary determination, delicate emotions, rich experience and sensible elites. The feeling of admiration is from the heart.

"Village Sage" said? Bite the same wax, eat like chicken ribs, dry and boring "love letters", can a woman with taste enter her eyes? "This is also the touchstone for screening quality partners!

I love literature from the secular heart? Love letters should be written better than others!

Not all women expect to marry a writer or a writer. My mind is wandering again, so I can understand, because real life may not be happy. Think about the feud between Yu Dafu and Wang Shaoxia. The last good things are gone. How to discredit Wang Yingxia? And the marriage between Shen Congwen and Zhang Zhaohe. The beautiful love letter touched Zhao He, and the result was short-lived happiness. Let's take a look at Lu Yao again. He is writing with his life, and his body is seriously overdrawn. He can't write and eat on time all day. At noon in the morning, when you are hungry, order pickles to fill your stomach. How can his liver disease be cured by this spelling? Why didn't his family take care of his diet? Don't leave at the age of 42)

It's easy to tell jokes.

Woman: I got a haircut today. Why does it look so ugly? 1

An Xin: Nothing, I don't dislike you.

Xiao Su: That's good! If you put a pressure on Yan value, you will give me a way out, and don't let passers-by call me cow dung!

Woman:? Good night, baby!

An Xin: Good night, baby, sweet dreams!

Xiao Su: Good night, I'm going to meet my baby somewhere else!

Beginning part

? Learn the dregs one by one? Many things happened during my growing up, and one of them made me unforgettable. ...

? Learn to bully one by one? If memory is a treasure chest, I have a lot in this box, and one thing is as dazzling as a huge crystal clear night pearl. ...

? Learn the gods one by one? After the rain clears, the rainbow flies. When I am amazed, that amazing moment is the admiration in the depths of my soul, and I can't stop sighing. I was very successful in the past, and I can't forget that thing that went deep into my soul. ...

Hahaha! (? )?

Professor Wu Anxin also talked about the books he read during his college years. He made a list of books and recommended "Minimum Literary Literacy for Science Students" as a required reading, both at home and abroad. I extracted some parts:

Xiao Su's speech? One by one? "the expression form of literature"

The whole morning lasted nearly 4 hours. Xiao Su was completely talking about the manuscript, while Kan Kan was talking about it. He was worthy of being a teacher in the university. The observation of creative experience, rich experience and life experience makes his story seem confusing, flexible and vivid, but in fact, he doesn't stray from the topic, doesn't feel that he is listening to the class, is not boring, dogmatic and sometimes funny.

What impressed me deeply was what he said. After the work is written, people in different periods have different understandings of the same article. About the misreading and more explanations of the works (maybe the writer didn't think so when he wrote this, but the works don't belong to him after they are put on the market), these are almost all in the form of telling stories.

Including the people he met on his own road, how he observed and captured interesting content, and analyzed and explained it layer by layer. The language is humorous, vivid and profound. It makes me feel that as a writer, he has a strong insight.

He also said that he likes to write "interesting novels".

He said: "An interesting novel is based on mood and interest. It does not pursue grandeur or profundity. In other words, it does not pay much attention to the construction of meaning, but only seeks to render an emotion and convey an interest. This kind of novel does not put on airs, keep a straight face, put on a show or pretend to be a ghost. It often looks low-key, plain and sometimes secular, so it makes readers feel kind, relaxed and interesting, in other words, interesting!

Another reason why we like interesting novels is that our real life is so boring. Frankly speaking, we live in a boring era. Material morbid prosperity, crazy progress in science and technology, sharp class division, serious social injustice, unprecedented indifference ... most people feel heavy, depressed, nervous and uneasy, really boring! Because our life is boring, we especially need interesting novels. I hope this novel can bring readers a little mood and interest, let people's hearts get a little relaxation and comfort, and make the boring life more interesting.

From the relationship between literature and life, I think interesting novels are closer to the essence of literature than meaningful novels.

Xiao Su mentioned that his temperament is suitable for writing short stories, and then added that this innate temperament includes aura, volume, breath and other factors, which can be said to be the sum of a person's inner charm.

Judging from his writing achievements, short stories are the most prominent. Last year, he published a collection of short stories, Evening Primrose Hotel, with an index of Xiao Su's short stories in the new century. From 2002 to 20 18, he wrote 175 short stories in seventeen years, which shows that Xiao Su has a special liking for short stories.

"Short stories are also more in line with the current situation of the times and the reading situation of human beings, and can more effectively show the fragments, despair and warmth in daily life. Xiao Su's special growth experience, knowledge composition, aesthetic taste, identity background and other factors, he chose different narrative strategies when expressing memorabilia of the times and personal anecdotes, and borrowed rape slope and university town to construct his own literary topographic map, showing a unique folk memory and siege experience.
