When it comes to the writer Liu Renyuan, the first thing that many people think of is his work "Long Wind and Sunset", which integrates the novel of Zhang Hui body to write a legend of resistance that swings back to the intestines and composes a humane ode that turns thousands of times. This is a novel that pays tribute to classical literature and traditional art, and it is also a work that expresses compassion and conveys the great love of chivalry.
This novel depicting the struggle for power, the layout of the whole book is grand and exquisite, the plot content is rich and concise, the author is not stuck in the strange plot and grand narrative, but through the writing of a capital person, thus depicting the human world that penetrates the back of the paper. On the occasion of the official release of "Long Wind and Sunset", Liu Renyuan was interviewed.
Liu Renyuan, author of "Long Wind and Falling Xia"
Liu Renyuan, an outstanding writer after the 90s, a native of Liaocheng, Shandong, is now a university staff, keen on literary creation, committed to writing about the warmth and cold of the world, and willing to turn his own words into messengers who convey love and hope, so that readers can feel delicate emotions, deep concerns, and the power of endeavor.
The young man did not know the meaning of chivalry, and then understood that he was already the author
"Compassion, great love of chivalry" is exactly the theme of "Long Wind and Sunset". According to Liu Renyuan, he loved traditional culture since he was a child, read poetry when he was young, and was quite yearning for Jing Ke's chivalrous feelings of "the wind is xiaoxiao, the water is cold, and the heroes will not return once they are gone", and he has also had heroic dreams, fantasizing that he can one day fight the sword to go to the end of the world, wander around, and fight righteousness and wealth.
With the growth of age, Liu Renyuan's yearning for chivalry has gradually precipitated from the youthful spirit of fresh clothes and angry horses into a sense of family and country. He began to realize that the so-called chivalrous guest is not just a lonely person, although thousands of people are looking forward to the lonely courage, not just "let the bones of the heroes die, not ashamed of the world's heroes", the belief that the eternal fragrance is flowing, but also with the heart of the world.
Whenever he reads verses such as "Whoever lives since ancient times has not died, keep his heart in The Heart of Dan to take care of Khan Qing" and "Wang Shi Bei Ding Zhongyuan Day, the family sacrifice has not forgotten to tell Nai Weng", he often has tears in his eyes, and whenever he reads such verses as "Poor bones by the river, like people in deep dreams", "The side court bleeds into seawater, and the King of Wu opens the border without hesitation", he often sighs.
When he read the tragic plots in literary works and the records of massacres in epic materials, he felt extremely painful and helpless. Under the guidance of these feelings, he gradually came up with the characters and certain plots of "Changfeng Sunset" such as Yuan Nianfeng, Liu Xiaoxuan, Emperor Liu Yushi, Qiu Zhengfeng, Mu Yitong, Erqiang Khan and so on. Since then, the initial conception of the whole book has been completed.
Writing the meaning of chivalry, compassion for the heavens and compassion for people first
Liu Renyuan believes that the real hero should be one of the most classic martial arts images with great love, no one is Jin Yong's Guo Jing hero. "The great hero is for the country and the people", this famous saying is from Guo Jing's mouth, which can be described as deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and inspiring the deaf. Guo Jing's "chivalrous" spirit, whether it is for the people of the Great Song Dynasty or the People of Mongolia, has feelings of compassion for heaven and man; But Guo Jing's compassion for people is not a passive avoidance of the world, nor is it a denial of struggle, nor is it a complete prohibition of killing.
Liu Renyuan's work "Long Wind and Sunset"
In fact, killing is inevitable in itself, and the use of force against those who are committing crimes and the aggressors who slaughter the people is necessary and just. Therefore, in the "Legend of the Archery Hero", when the Mongol army was preparing to slaughter the city of The Great Song, he stood up and saved the lives of 100,000 people. In "The Condor Heroes", he twice defended Xiangyang, even when the Mongol army threatened him with his daughter to surrender the city, he was awe-struck and unmoved.
And Yuan Nianfeng in "Long Wind and Sunset" also has the temperament of a hero who cares about the world, Liu Renyuan puts the character in the turbulent court storm, Yuan Nianfeng as a famous general, although he has experienced war and chaos, he is compassionate and compassionate, and has a heart of great love. He scrupulously fulfilled his duties for the officials, and for the sake of loyalty and courage, he always put the safety of the people of the world first. In order to prevent the people from suffering, he was willing to suffer himself.
His beloved heroine Liu Rongxia, but Liu Rongxia is a person with deep obsessions, in order to achieve the goal, unscrupulous people, even to use Erqiang, blackmail external forces to eliminate internal thieves, and do not hesitate to use national turmoil to achieve their dream of empress. And this is very likely, the situation that led to chaos in the world has a violent conflict with the concept that Yuan Nianfeng adheres to. Therefore, at the last moment of a thousand guns, Yuan Nianfeng chose to stand up and protect the prince and use his life to stop the killing. It can be said that he is a loyal practitioner of humanitarianism. Some readers may think that he is so good, is it a bit out of touch with reality?
In this regard, Liu Renyuan clearly pointed out that Yuan Nianfeng's image is not divorced from reality, and his various behaviors are a microcosm of the compassionate people in ancient and modern China and abroad. As the Book of Rites of the Han Dynasty said: "The deceased does not kiss his relatives alone, nor does he have only sons and sons." Let the old have an end, the strong have useful, and the young have growth. The reclusive, widowed, lonely, lonely, and the sick are all supported, and the male has a share, and the female has a return. "What a lofty social ideal and what a deep humanitarian concept.
The chivalrous wind blows the literary circle, and "The Long Wind and the Sunset" promote harmony
In recent years, the martial arts style that has disappeared for a long time has blown into the literary and film and television circles, and new martial arts works have emerged, but their popularity is often limited to a relatively narrow youth cultural circle, and word of mouth is also controversial, and it has not become an artistic image that has been hotly discussed and widely praised by the whole people.
"Long Wind and Sunset" was well received by the whole network
The reason is precisely because most of these works revolve around the bizarre living situation of individuals, although there is a chivalrous spirit but lack of heroism, there is a cultural atmosphere but lack of historical pattern, but also the lack of a grand scene of vertical and horizontal, so it is difficult to trigger social resonance. Liu Renyuan believes that the spirit of martial arts is a precious treasure in traditional Chinese culture, and it is also a clear symbol of Chinese kung fu going to the world. Whether it is the feeling of joining the WTO at the same time as "helping the world at the same time", or the responsibility of "a soldier must not fail to carry out his duty", or the freedom of "poetry and wine years, fighting swords and the end of the world", they have attracted the yearning of generations of people, combining the traditional martial arts spirit with humanitarian feelings, which is Liu Renyuan's motivation for writing "Long Wind and Sunset".
The emergence of "Long Wind and Sunset" can be said to have brought a fresh atmosphere. At present, it is a new era in which the personal dreams and national dreams of the Chinese nation converge and move forward. The self-confidence, courage, wisdom and humane feelings that stir in the hearts of heroes and are proud of heaven and earth, as well as the great righteousness of the country and the compassion of heaven and earth, are still the most indispensable spiritual qualities of this era.
True humanitarian sentiments are not empty talk, nor are they complete denials of struggle, but the need to care as much as possible to protect the life and basic rights of every specific person, which are vividly reflected in his "Long Wind and Sunset". In this environment, this requires more literary creators to correctly interpret the spirit of martial arts, our "heroes" are more, every corner of society is full of bright and upright righteousness, this society will be more harmonious and stable, and the people can better live and work in peace and contentment.
