Shen Yanbing tells the origin of the pen name "Mao Dun"

After I wrote "Disillusionment" today, I handed it to Ye Shengtao for publication, and I took the name "Contradiction". Because at the beginning I felt that all I saw in this year were contradictions, not only the opinions of the Party Central Committee on the line, but also on tactics and strategies, that is to say, contradictions. Personally, my view of the revolution was indeed pessimistic and disappointed, but I thought it would not be so bad, and there was also a contradiction, so I used this name. However, Ye Shengtao came to discuss with me when he had an opinion: he said that this person knew that it was a fake name at a glance. If someone from Chiang Kai-shek's side who censors the books came to ask him, he said that it would be very difficult for me to answer, but it would be better to add a cursive prefix to the word "spear", then it is a very common surname, and people will not attract attention, even if someone comes to ask me, it can be said that it is a contribution. Therefore, I also agreed with Ye Shengtao's opinion, and for the time being, I took the "Mao Shield" of this grass head.
