Some readers were interested in the novel that Peng Jianming wrote at that time, such as "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog", and asked him under what circumstances he wrote it. He said that in 1982, the second year of writing, he hid in a mountain town in his hometown of Pingjiang. At that time, there was no telephone, and the contact with the outside world was by writing letters, so he could only go to the rural post office where only one person was on duty. The attendant told him that they were very hard, carrying parcels, running between the mountains and mountains for many years, running a post for four days, so that it would take decades to go. So Peng Jianming wrote this detail provided by the duty officer into a novel "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog."

The novel tells the story of an old postman and his son delivering a letter together in the 1980s in rural Hunan: the old postman in the mountains is old and sick and about to retire, and his son takes over his shift. The first time I went to deliver a letter, the old man was not at ease, so he went with him. On the long mountain road, father and son were together for the first time for such a long time, and the affection shown by the mountain people to the old postman made the son have a new understanding of his father. The strangeness caused by the lack of time together gradually disappeared, and the son shouted out "Daddy" from the bottom of his heart, and the old man's lonely work in his life has gained the greatest satisfaction from this moment on. The story content of the novel is basically the same as the content of the movie of the same name.

"The theme of professionalism and father-son relationship is the reason why "Na Shan Na Dog" is popular in Japan." Peng Jianming said. Dedication is a traditional Chinese virtue, and the affection between father and son is an emotion Chinese bones.

The famous poet and critic Zhou Seser said: "Teacher Peng Jianming is my literary enlightenment teacher, in the 1980s when I started literary creation in my hometown, I got his help, he was already a front-line writer in the country at that time, he cared about us beginners from life, but also gave us selfless help to embark on the road of literature." Listening to his lecture again in Shenzhen today, I saw that the soul of a writer is always true and powerful. ”

After listening to the lecture, Teacher Luo Xiujian of Shenzhen Hongling Middle School said: "Teacher Peng Jianming told his own creative story, described the most vivid rural life in the most simple words, unfolded like a picture scroll, I listened very familiarly, felt warm and real, as if returning to the most primitive happy childhood in my hometown. Teacher Peng Jianming seems to be flat and straightforward, but he is the most powerful hypnotist, perhaps this is the charm of storytelling.

One of the reasons for sharing my reluctance to trouble others comes from my own humility, which immediately makes people feel the most real humanity, and also touches the most reluctant part of my heart, as a rural child who relies on his own continuous efforts all the way, that stubbornness and tenacity, only I know best that this motivation comes from humility. This is the power of writers and literature, allowing readers to identify, purify and understand, so as to accept where they come from in the process, and also accept the humble, weakest part of their own life as a child. ”
