Cai Sheng, a great writer in our county across provinces
Author | Feng Enchang
Cai Sheng is a 51-year-old from Linqu and works in the county education bureau. He is engaged in literary creation, and from the beginning he was a bit "strange", he was good at writing novels and short stories, and the general authors first published them in the local literary and art garden. However, he was ingenious and wrote a work that was directly sent to shanxi literature magazine, which touched Han Shishan, the editor-in-chief of the famous writer "Shanxi Literature", personally handled the work for him, and was touched by him and praised. He was to preside over the compilation of a set of "Tong Ye Wen Cong", which was published by the Yuanfang Publishing House. After Cai Sheng got the news, he sent the accumulated 19 novels, the integrated manuscript "If You Can Howl, Howl," to Mr. Han Shishan. He said in the Preface: "I wanted to look roughly, but when I looked into it, it became a careful look." "I am afraid of being moved and fascinated by the editor-in-chief, and after he has looked at it, or made simple modifications, he can not only pass, but also rank in a good grade." Han Shishan said very proudly: "What attracts me is the author's open-minded mentality, there is almost nothing he can't say, one moment to ridicule himself, one moment to ridicule his family, wife, father-in-law, and parents; second, his writing, so relaxed, so free, and so alert and humorous, let you laugh for a while, sigh for a while, and tickle your heart to read this article and read that article." ”
Cai Sheng's novel, rushing out of Linqu, rushing out of Shandong, a hit in Shanxi, and famous throughout the country. Mainly because of the preference of Han Shishan's editor-in-chief. As the saying goes, the master leads the door skillfully in each person, and also says that people's lives depend on fate, and when they meet noble people, they can achieve good things. Cai Sheng has a fate with Shanxi, he does not submit articles in the local province, but the light of hope in his heart is shot at "Shanxi Literature", and he also encounters a famous writer and editor-in-chief in the country who is similar in fate, Han Shishan said very sincerely: "The reason why I admire Mr. Cai Sheng's article is because his style of writing is in line with some of my thoughts on the style of writing over the years. "Some famous people in the literary world, at the level of reading words, are like eating tofu spinach, each with their own love. In many things in life, a person's opportunities are very important, and meeting a confidant in the interaction, things that could not have been done, but unexpected success. As far as I know, Cai Sheng was originally a farmer's child, did not have great skills, a young man in a mountain village who was less than 20 years old, engaged in creation and aimed at Han Shishan. His works were favored by famous artists, and a great lucky thing came to him, which aroused his desire to soar. In 2007, when the luck was the most prosperous, a young man who rarely went far away plucked up enough courage to go to Baibole twice, once the editor-in-chief came to Jinan for a meeting, Cai Sheng made a special trip to visit, and the second time held an appraisal activity in Taiyuan, Cai Sheng went, and both times he left a good impression on the editor-in-chief, and twice awarded him the "Shanxi Literature" Outstanding Writer Award. In creation, being a good person and loving learning with an open heart is the basis for the success of creation. Han Shishan said very clearly: "It is not his level, in the more than 20 people who won the award at the same time, it really took the tip, more is appreciation and preference." ”
Cai Sheng has published two novel collections, one is "Howl You Can Howl", and the other is "Who Burned My Hooves", two books with nearly 500,000 words and 33 novels. After the first book was published, I wrote a review for him and published it in Weifang Daily, highlighting his reputation as a great writer in Shandong. After I read Cai Sheng's novels, I was fascinated by his special style of writing, as Han Shishan said, his writing is bold and spicy, he can say anything in his pen, the language is lively and witty, humorous, sharp, there is no shadow of imitating other people's language, it is a creative language from the heart. Some readers say that he is somewhat straightforward, and I think about this matter, thinking that I don't forget that he is writing a novel, not documentary literature, the novel is fiction, don't take it seriously. I admire Cai Sheng's writing and language, I have written all my life, honed my life in literature, but no matter how I write, I can't give birth to his style of writing, such a humorous language, this is genius, this is the ability to become a famous artist.
Times are moving forward, and writers and poets must follow suit. I haven't seen Cai Sheng's new work in seven or eight years, and I and many of his friends and readers are looking forward to his unique new work, and he says that he is writing it.
