If every city has a representative writer, then the representative writer in Wuhan is Chi Li.
Speaking of Chi Li, one of the labels that can never be avoided is "new realism".
In 1987, Chi Li's "Troubled Life" was first published in Shanghai Literature, and the editor-in-chief Zhou Jieren wrote in the opening sentence: A doctrine has begun - new realism.
More than 30 years later, she, Liu Zhenyun, Fang Fang and others are still the most representative writers of "new realism" in the history of modern and contemporary literature in China. Her "trilogy of life", "Troubled Life", "Don't Talk About Love", and "The Sun Is Born", has always been regarded as the beginning of China's new genre of realism.
For ordinary readers, "new realism" is still an abstract definition, but from Chi Li's pen, the resonance felt by readers is real.
This resonance also comes from Lai Shuangyang of "Life Show" and the honey sister of "Her City", "The Wuhan characters I write, there is a category that focuses on inner loneliness. ”
Chi Li, born on May 30, 1957 in Xiantao, Hubei Province, graduated from Wuhan University and is a Chinese writer.
Who are the celebrities of Hubei Xiantao?
At that time, when I said this with my friend, the friend raised a glass and took a sip and said such a sentence: "There are not many celebrities in Xiantao, there were Chen Youyu in ancient times, and now there is Lei Jun." ”
"In ancient times, there was Chen Youyu, and now there is Lei Jun"!
Who is Lei Jun? Everyone knows it.
And the writer Chi Li!
As a child, Chi Li lived in her grandmother's house for many years.
One summer, Chi Li, who had not yet entered the school gate, hid in the attic and struggled to read a vertical traditional "Dream of the Red Chamber" without a cover, and the adults were surprised when they found it, and snatched the book. In the future, whenever Chi Li read a book, adults were vigilant and strictly "checked", but this could not block Chi Li's intimate contact with books. "From childhood to adolescence, reading was the only sustenance. I tried my best to read the literary books I could get my hands on, and I lit them with flashlights in the quilts late at night, writing poems, essays, and novels. ”
1974 - After graduating from high school, he became a decentralized intellectual; in 1983, he took the adult college entrance examination and entered the adult class of the department of Chinese of Wuhan University to study Chinese language and literature; in 1990, he was transferred to the Wuhan College of Literature and became a professional writer; on September 22, 2007, he was elected vice chairman of the Hubei Provincial Federation of Literature and Literature.
Chi Li's life is divided into three parts: reading, walking, and writing, each accounting for one-third of the time.
She reads a lot, and in her house you can find quite a few books about the social sciences like philosophy; walking is traveling; in addition to novels, she also writes some essays.
Chi Li stopped in the literary world with Han-style novels. Her works are like wuhan style paintings.
There is an Auspicious Street in Wuhan, every evening, Jiqing Street begins to be brightly lit, the traffic is busy, the business is hot, the sound of rap and piano is endless, and it has become a unique scenery in Wuhan at night. Chi Li went deep into Jiqing Street for many times to interview, understand the sour, sweet and bitter spicy of self-employed people, make friends with them, and finally created a novel "Life Show" that successfully shaped the image of women in Jiqing Street to double Yang, and the film adapted into it won the "Golden Rooster Award" and "Hundred Flowers Award", and Jiqing Street was also famous throughout the country.
In Chi Li's works, Wuhan is not only a symbol, it is concrete and realistic, and the regional characteristics are soaked into every sentence and every word of the work, becoming a representative spirit of urban culture.
After creating, Chi Li likes to be an ordinary Wuhan woman, she will often accompany her daughter at home, plant some small vegetables and flowers and plants by herself, return to the basics, enjoy life, and accumulate the next step of creative materials.
On December 4, 2016, a new leading body of the China Writers Association was elected, and Chi Li was elected as a member of the presidium.
In 2009, Chi Li published "Children, Thank You for Giving Me Another Life", generously announcing her mental journey from marriage to divorce.
About Who is Chi Li's husband? What is the name of Chi Li's husband?
All along, there has been very little information, Chi Li's husband is very low-key, and the writer Chi Li himself also talks about women more, and a vigorous love has vanished.
In Chi Li's own work, Chi Li wrote about her own love and marriage experience, she described: "My child comes from a vigorous love. Chi Li confessed in the book that after getting her parents' permission to "start thinking about personal problems" at the age of 24, she established a relationship with a tall and handsome engineering man, but the engineering man was not very attentive to her, and she was hospitalized for surgery and did not come to take care of her.
After being disappointed, Chi Li met her daughter's father at a writing workshop, but the other party was married and had children. The two did not suppress their desire for love, but still began to communicate, and in that era they were condemned. Not only have their great futures been ruined, but Chi Li's husband has also been imprisoned for this.
I also looked up a lot of information and found out that Chi Li's husband is called Lu Xiaoyuan, who is engaged in screenwriting.
Chi Li is a professional writer of the Wuhan Municipal Federation of Literature and Literature, and the two are at home, more than exchanging reading experiences with each other, commenting on literary works and literary phenomena, among which there are inevitable arguments, and the natural jokes that lose call each other teachers.
At that time, Chi Li often traveled to various places to experience life and accumulate materials, and she liked to be alone and tired. Sometimes it was half a month after he went out, and the husband was "dried" at home. When Chi Li returned from a trip, she saw that her husband had made the home orderly, and her daughter was dressed neatly, and would often attach herself to her husband's side and whisper softly: "Teacher Lu, it is hard." ”
Lu Xiaoyuan is rough on the outside, but kind and gentle on the inside. He has given a lot to the family and to his wife, including a significant reduction in creation. As long as Chi Li stayed at home, she did her best to be "virtuous", and when arguing with her husband, she always "fell without a fight" and gave more to her husband. She said she owed her husband too much.
After many twists and turns, Chi Li finally married him and gave birth to a daughter, Lu Yichi.
In 1985, Chi Li chose marriage because of "love".
But it is not enough to maintain a marriage and have love, so in the 10th year, Chi Li had her first big quarrel with her ex-husband.
Chi Li divorced and hid her daughter for two years.
Since then, marriage has gradually come to the brink of collapse after a chicken feather. In order to hide the young daughter, "the days pass in disguise".
In 2000, Chi Li signed a divorce agreement with her ex-husband and began a life of room separation. Such a well-built family of three has been hiding its daughter until the end of the middle school entrance examination. To Chi Li's surprise, her daughter already knew about her parents' divorce when she first entered junior high school.
In order not to embarrass the adults, the children cooperated with them to perform the play.
Chi Li talks about marriage: Being a father, he is qualified.
In the book, Chi Li talks about her first marriage for the first time.
For marriage, she confessed: when the limit arrives, they will fly separately.
The matter of my own marriage, I did not want to mention. As far as marriage itself is concerned, there is nothing more to say. Marriage this thing, in the end is still only the old Chinese saying, it is abstract and refined, dashing and solemn——— husband and wife are originally the same forest bird, the limit when each flying. Then there is the thousands of messes, which can be simply boiled down to one word: fate. The fate is exhausted, just like the water on the ground is dried by the sun. I don't talk about marriage itself. I'm talking about children who are involved in marriage. Once the child is involved, it is one word, ten thousand words, countless words, and it is difficult to resolve the contradictions and difficulties. ”
Although she divorced her husband, Chi Li did not have much resentment towards the father of the child, at least from the perspective of fatherhood, she believed that the father of the child was qualified: "The father of the child, of course, he is also an important part of the family." He raised children with me, and his talent in music and painting was even more influential on his children; he also put a lot of effort into creating this green forest for his children. Our family, the only one for the child, is her prairie ranch. ”
In 2004, Chi Li, who was divorced, attended a class reunion, and the marital status of the crowd shocked Chi Li.
One third of those who divorce and one third are ready to divorce. When someone called on the happily married to stand up, no one stood up during the banquet. In the adult world, there is more tacit helplessness.
Chi Li's literary works are good at dissecting married life, and her own experiences, as well as the stories of the people around her, really provide her with material.
In Chi Li's pen, the breakdown of marriage has a reason for infidelity, such as "Miss You Early", a successful woman who witnessed the stealing of her husband and a little nanny, which triggered a big earthquake in marriage. There are not a few people whose marriages are dying but still refuse to divorce, such as "Coming and Going", the wife who grabbed a large husband and betrayed him five times, but finally refused to quit with dignity. There are also those who choose to live together in order to get married, such as "Don't Talk About Love", which really describes the realistic and wronged marriage to the fullest.
Chi Li is also a woman. She is also a woman, an extraordinary woman, and it is not simple for a woman to become a writer, and it seems to let me see that the two more well-known writers in Wuhan, Chi Li and Fang Fang, have experienced divorce, and Fang Fang will divorce earlier.
She is a talented woman, then it is doomed that his husband can only be a mediocre husband, but, in fact, his husband is not a mediocre person, men are generally very difficult to tolerate such things, unless the best of men, so their marriage can not be maintained, but also caused by such a big environment in China, although she said that the divorce is because it is "fate", such a simple word, I am afraid that I can not perfunctory past it, but this is a matter of people, even not full of food to support. Just look at it, the breakdown of the marriage, both parties are responsible, a person who is too tender, hehe, I don't want to say so much, after all, marriage is this thing, we don't understand yet.
Divorce is such a cruel thing, too cruel, a happy marriage relationship, how difficult it is to maintain ah... So I think my dad and mom, so great, huh.
Chi Li's daughter Lu Yichi: "I don't want to be under the aura of my mother." ”
On December 15, 2011, he graduated from the London School of Economics and Political Science.
He has translated "To My Daughter Who Ran Away from Home".
Lu Yichi studied economics and statistics in the UK, and translation can only be regarded as a "play ticket". Although she did not follow the text, her translation was very literary. Maybe that's heredity.
Lu Yichi, the daughter of the well-known female writer Chi Li, is still young, but she already has her first translation, "To My Daughter Who Ran Away from Home". In 2005, Chi Li published the book "Come, Child" dedicated to her daughter, which recorded her birth, kindergarten, primary school, secondary school, until she was admitted to the British key high school and famous universities. After reading that book, I felt like watching Lu Yichi grow up little by little, and Lu Yichi's life footprints were exposed to the public with the advent of this book.
Lu Yichi
In appearance, Chi Li's daughter Lu Yichi is the same as her mother, and like many of the second generation of Qing, she talks about the pain and happiness of her parents and as a descendant of writers.
Writer Chi Li:
I gave my daughter life,
It's just a coincidence.
My daughter doesn't have to thank me,
I'm very grateful to her.
Gave me another life.
Chi Li believes that the widely circulated phrase "don't let the child lose at the starting line" is extremely confusing.
Chi Li talks about education: happiness comes first.
Chi Li believes that the widely circulated saying "don't let the child lose at the starting line" is extremely mixed, so she created her own "three basic principles" of parenting: let her daughter get along and play with children freely; obey the innate nature of children, let her accept natural enlightenment in the most favorite and open state; tell stories for children from an early age and cultivate children's interest in reading. Because she puts happiness first, Chi Li has done a lot of things that surprise parents. Throughout elementary school, she insisted that her daughter go to bed at 9:30 a.m., and did not hesitate to write a false note and sign for the homework she did not complete; in high school, her daughter secretly smashed the door of the school's piano room with a hammer to enter and play the piano, and as a result, she was investigated by the school as a thief, but Chi Li told her daughter, "You did nothing wrong." ”
Chi Li hopes to use her and her daughter's growth experience to tell everyone that there are other options for the way children grow and educate: "I hope that my daughter can first understand the meaning of life from life. If she slowly understands that food and clothing is a big thing, thrift is a virtue, calm is an atmosphere, tolerance is a kind of true love, and knowing is a kind of best, then what lesson in the world can she not get A? ”
