"Opening a book is opening a new world...... On the morning of April 22, the classic lecture hall of the classic bookstore on Nanbin Road sounded the sound of reading aloud. The teachers and students of Wenfeng Primary School in Nan'an District recited the poem "Reading Nanshan and Endless Life" to open the curtain of "Literature Illuminates Life - 'Literature Open Class' for Chinese Writers and the 2024 National Reading Launching Ceremony in Nan'an District". The event invited Li Junhu, chairman of the Shanxi Writers Association and writer, to walk into Nan'an to talk about the practical significance of literary inheritance in the form of a literary open class, so that the whole people can read more deeply in the hearts of the people.
Li Junhu is a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, a member of the Central Committee of the Democratic League, a member of the National Committee of the China Writers Association, the chairman of the Shanxi Writers Association, and the winner of the Lu Xun Literature Award.
"I'm no stranger to Chongqing. I used to work in Sichuan to promote the development of literature in Chengdu and Chongqing, and I have a great affection for the mountains and rivers of Chongqing. In the open class, Li Junhu talked about his career and creative experience, and talked about the development of modern literature. "After the founding of the People's Republic of China, rural novels became the mainstream, and writers sought creative inspiration from the aspects of social structure, culture and customs, and penetrated the ...... of the world's people." He took the Lu Xun Literature Award-winning work "The Wheat Season in Front" as an example to explain how to enrich one's spiritual world through literature.
Li Junhu's lecture was thorough and in-depth, winning bursts of applause from the audience. During the event, the audience asked Li Junhu questions about "the relationship between bestsellers and classic books" and "the regional creative differences between Shanxi writers and Chongqing writers", and Li Junhu answered in detail, and the interaction made the atmosphere more enthusiastic. During the event, Li Junhu presented his representative books to the Nan'an District Library.
"A young person's thirst for spiritual culture is consistent with his spiritual pursuit in his youth. Reading is a kind of personal cultivation and a good habit, which will play a great role in the formation of an individual's worldview. Li Junhu sent a message to the majority of young people to read more, read good books, take their own life path, and form a good cultural atmosphere through continuous and in-depth study through reading.
This year, April 23 marks the 29th World Book Day. The event was also the launching ceremony of the 2024 South Bank District National Reading Series, marking the official launch of the 2024 South Bank District National Reading Series Activities.
