On the afternoon of September 12th, the "Samurai Crossing the River - Rainbow Shadow New Book Sharing Meeting" was held at Wenxuan BOOKS Bookstore. Hongying, who came to Chengdu by train from Chongqing, and Lu Yiping, a novelist in Chengdu, exchanged views on Hongying's latest novel, "Moonlight Warrior", essay collection "Women's River: Rainbow Shadow Dictionary" and "When the World Becomes a Pepper". Singer and actor Feng Jiamei came to support and read a letter written by the protagonist in the book. The cover reporter was invited to be the moderator of the sharing session.
We will do our best to make "Moonlight Samurai" a work of art about Chongqing
"Moonlight Samurai" is the latest novel by writer Rainbow Shadow. The story of this novel takes place in Chongqing in the 1970s, and the book has a strong hometown complex of Rainbow Shadow. With the image of "Moonlight Warrior", the novel connects the enmity and hatred of the children of several families on the banks of the Jialing River in Chongqing, and writes the growth history of a generation in resonance with the times. After writing about Shanghai, London, Rome and other cities, she once again returned to the place of birth, and it can be said that "Moonlight Samurai" is the book of life memories of Rainbow Shadow. At the scene, Rainbow Shadow revealed that this time she will serve as a director herself and make this novel with her strong hometown feelings into a movie. At present, the preparations before the start-up are in full swing, mainly in Chongqing.
Rainbow Shadow's novel film and television fate is not shallow. The film "Lyceum Grand Theatre", adapted from Hongying's novel "Death in Shanghai", directed by Lou Ye, written by Ma Yingli, starring Gong Li and Zhao Youting, will be released on October 15 this year. As early as 2017, Hongying's novel "Shanghai King" was put on the big screen.
Talking about why I had to personally shoot "Moonlight Samurai" this time, Hongying said, "Many people around me think I'm 'crazy'. In fact, I am 'crazy' for art. I don't think any other director can know more about what this novel is trying to convey and know more about Chongqing than I do. Although the characters in the novel are all artistic fictions, they all have real archetypes. I'm just artistizing them. I also wanted to challenge myself to do something I had never done before. Rainbow Shadow also mentioned, "Frankly speaking, although there is no shortage of good works in the current film field, I have also seen a lot of bad films." I also want to do my best to make a film artwork that represents the city of Chongqing. ”
A passage from Feng Jiamei's reading aloud
Women should become their own "moonlight warriors"
It is recommended to have an hour a day alone for yourself
Because the works have a lot of ink on the life growth of female characters, Hongying is also known as "a feminist writer". In "Moonlight Samurai", she created a variety of female images, such as the hard-working "artillery mother", the modern workplace woman Su Yan, as well as the brave pursuit of love Fangfang, Qin Jiahui who endured humiliation and burden, and so on.
"Compared to my mother's time, the status of women now must have been greatly improved. But everyone's attention to women is far from enough, I am very concerned about the value of women's self, I hope they find the relationship between the self and this society and the world, women do not expect others to be your moonlight warriors, women should become their own moonlight warriors. Rainbow Shadow said, "Women must find a space to be quiet and alone for an hour a day." During this hour, she can relax and temporarily detach herself from the roles of mother, wife, etc., and return to herself. ”
Novelist Lu Yiping:
Watching "Moonlight Samurai" to see the tears is evoked by the memories of the growth of the post-70s generation
Lu Yiping is a veteran novelist and a senior literary editor. He has edited the works of Rainbow Shadow and analyzed the novels of Rainbow Shadow in the classroom of novels. In Lu Yiping's view, Hongying is a writer with a sense of mystery, a writer with special talents, a writer with a great sense of power in his works, and a writer with the coexistence of classical and modern. "Moonlight Samurai" has been reading carefully since August, and I am reluctant to finish it in the middle, deliberately slowing down the pace and savoring it until last night," she shed tears. I'm a fiction creator myself, and I've edited a lot of novels, and I don't usually cry easily by reading a novel. But this novel fluctuated the emotions that had been buried deep in my heart for a long time, and evoked all kinds of memories of my growth as a post-70s person. ”
In this work, Rainbow Shadow resurrects the style of Chongqing from 1976 to 1996. The details about life in the city over the past few decades are very real. That's what impressed me the most. Chongqing is a city I am very familiar with. My memory of Chongqing is resurrected in the novel Hongying. ”
