He is the winner of two Lu Xun Literature Awards, and has won many major literary awards such as the Lao She Prose Award, the Media Literature Achievement Award, and the Youth Literature Award.
His essay "Me and the Temple of Earth" was included in the middle school textbook and was praised as the best prose in China in the past 50 years.
His novel "Fate like Strings" was adapted into the movie "Singing While Walking", which was adapted into operas, dramas, and stage plays.
During his lifetime, he wrote 20 short stories, 2 novellas, 6 novellas, 18 essays, and 2 film scripts.
For most of his life, he struggled with illness and death, pursuing the truth of literature and pondering the meaning of living.
He is a famous writer - Stetson.
In 1951, Stetson was born in an old hutong in Beijing. Since childhood, he has been an uncompromising proud son of heaven.
When he went to school, Shi Tiesheng attended Tsinghua High School, a top middle school in Beijing.
In the Tsinghua Affiliated High School, where there are many school bullies, Shi Tiesheng's achievements are top-notch and have attracted much attention.
He can not only recite poetry, but also engage in radio, the best at 80 meters hurdles, he runs with his figure-eight feet, walks like a fly, and wins prizes every time he competes.
Until the age of 21, that day happened to be his birthday.
He was hospitalized with leg pain, sitting on a hospital bed, and this sitting was a lifetime.
At the beginning of the paralysis, friends advised him to be optimistic, "you see how beautiful life is" is often the words of friends. This did not inspire Stetson at that time, and even exacerbated his irritability.
What inspired Stetson was Chaplin's last silent film, City Lights. The heroine is about to commit suicide, and Chaplin goes to save her. The girl said:
"Why are you saving me?" What right do you have not to let me die? ”
Chaplin's answer was so wonderful that Stetson would never forget it, saying:
"What's the hurry, we're not going to die sooner or later."
Stetson realized that this was the attitude of a master, which had not only extraordinary wisdom, but also deep love.
After this, Stetson began his writing path.
Despite the hardships of the day, there was a man who shone like a ray of morning light into the atrium of his heart.
She is Shi Tiesheng's first love, a beautiful, beautiful, intelligent girl, excellent in all aspects, and now she is a typical white rich beauty.
The two have been in love for a long time, the first love has a deep love for Shi Tiesheng, and the fate makes the two young hearts, putting aside the world, closely linked.
The first love is heartbroken for Shi Tie, not that he does not marry, but like the TV series, her family knows about this matter and strongly prevents it.
Under the strong opposition of his first love family, Shi Tiesheng also felt that such a self could not give his lover happiness, and took the initiative to choose to give up, and this relationship ended abruptly in one summer.
Later, he met Chen Ximi, who also had a leg disease with him, and was also the woman who accompanied him through half his life.
In the years of writing, his kidneys died and declined, and developed to uremia, relying on dialysis 3 times a week to maintain his life, saying that writing needs to travel thousands of miles, integrating what he sees and hears into words, but the conditions limit his walking.
Because of his love of words, he wrote over and over again in the night when no one knew, and in that era when there was no computer, he used paper manuscripts to revise them over and over again, tirelessly.
Finally, a few years later, his work appeared in the newspaper, and the money he received was able to support himself.
In 2010, when Stetson died in the hospital at the age of 59, many readers, knowing this, mourned for him: May there be no disease and pain in heaven.
There is one less great literati in the world, and there is one more humorous writer in heaven, and before Shi Tiesheng died, he had already made certain achievements in literary creation, and the readers were innumerable.
Many people read his works, and what they feel is not the majestic majesty, nor the pity of self-pity, but in the warm words, seeing his bright and sunny mentality, what they learn is optimism about things and people.
When we think of Stetson, we will think of "Me and the Temple of Earth" that we once studied, and his words are gentle and sunny, giving people a special warmth.
How much influence this work has, there is no need to repeat it too much. Han Shaogong commented:
Even if there are no other works, the literary world in 1991 has Shi Tiesheng's "I and the Temple of Earth", which is already a good year.
And the Temple of Earth has also become a popular attraction in Beijing because of this work, until now, many people are still saying: to Beijing, you can not go to the Great Wall, do not go to the Ming Tombs, but you must go to see the Temple of Earth.
Speaking about his understanding of death, Stetson wrote in Me and the Temple of Earth:
Death is something that needs to be done in a hurry, something that will not be missed no matter how much it is delayed, a festival that will inevitably come. Fate can always destroy all the glamorous skin bags, but it can't kill strong souls.
If you think life is difficult, then you must read Stetson, you will feel that it is just a lifetime. It's better than a day, it's a bad day, so why not live well.
If you feel that you are lucky in your life, then you must also read Stetson, you will feel that your life should be full of sunshine, everything in front of you is nothing, and when your life is over, it will be over.
