Gong Xiaobing: After so much experience, I am still simple Gong Xiaobing: After experiencing so much, I am still simple

<h1>Gong Xiaobing: After so much experience, I am still simple</h1>

Editor's note: As a special literary phenomenon, the creative career of post-80s writers has gone through 10 years. Most of them became famous at a young age, and their youth was full of passion and freedom. The post-80s writers, once known as the "Beat Generation," stirred up words in their own worlds and spoke of rebellion. They have also been criticized and questioned by the outside world, but they are also considered the backbone of the future of China's literary scene and are full of hope. Now that some of them have entered the age of establishment, their ideological cognition will be more mature, and many of them are also trying to transform literature.

After 5 years of silence in the literary world, Gong Xiaobing's new work "Youth Forward, Vicissitudes Later" was recently published. Speaking of him, there is a title that lingers, that is, the initiator of the concept of "post-80s" in the Chinese world. On a sunny afternoon, 31-year-old Gong Xiaobing chatted with reporters about his literary experience. He said, "After all this, my ideas are still very simple, I said that I am a young old writer, late ripe. ”

"At that time, I was in a street stall in Hefei, I saw the pirated version of the 4th edition of "Nowhere to Escape", and my first feeling was pride and pride." Young fame: I began to flutter. Speaking of the beginning and end of the concept of the post-80s, Gong Xiaobing said that the idea at that time was very simple. "I once read an essay about the post-70s, which evaluated the survival status of the post-70s at that time, and I wanted to make an "interesting summary" for the post-80s, and the advantages and disadvantages were listed. In this way, Gong Xiaobing serialized more than 10,000 words of posts on the Internet "Summarizing the Post-80s", which is full of keywords such as "impetuous", "confused" and "depressed" that belong to the post-80s. In 2004, his autobiographical novel "Nowhere to Escape" was published, and the first print reached 100,000 copies, and Gong Xiaobing, who was named "The Literary Leader of the Post-80s", quickly became famous.

He was an ordinary small-town youth from Huangshan, and he suddenly felt that he was really famous in the face of an appointment from major mainstream media. "At that time, I was in a street stall in Hefei, I saw the pirated books of the 4 editions of "Nowhere to Escape", and my first feeling was pride and pride, and it turned out that my book was so hot." To this day, "Nowhere to Escape" is still the longest novel written by Gong Xiaobing. Since then, I have begun to inflate myself, and I have the feeling of not putting the world in my eyes, but every book that follows is not as good as the results of "Nowhere to Escape", and the psychological gap is very large." "Reading books has enriched my life, I have been writing in prison, participating in competitions and winning awards." 4 years in prison: Reading calms me.

Gong Xiaobing, who is in his adolescence, rebels, skips school, and in his own words, "fights against time." Despite this, he has always loved writing. "There is a cultural station next to the junior high school, the webmaster is very cultured, has published a lot of works, I have tried to submit articles since the third year of junior high school, but I have never seen the newspaper." The price of youthful madness is 4 years in prison, which he says he has attended university. "Reading books calmed my heart, I kept writing in prison, and I won awards in competitions."

Talking about the past now, he seems very indifferent. I think that people become "familiar must be a process of slow accumulation, and the post-80s generation as a whole is still relatively pragmatic, responsible, and inherited." "I'm a person who likes freedom and I'm a person who cares about people and things, but I've always had a good mindset." Business failure: The road to life has only begun

Gong Xiaobing wrote his entrepreneurial experience into the new book "Youth Forward, Vicissitudes Back", hoping to give a warning to countless entrepreneurial youth. I was still working in a newspaper when I was "a", and my life was quite leisurely, and I didn't know how to start a business, but I hit my head and bled. Gong Xiaobing, who has run a cultural company and a physical company, said that writing and starting a business are contradictory. When I went to the sea, I was also writing columns for magazines, but the manuscripts were urged by the editors every time, and I didn't have time to write after doing business. ”

Because of the failure of the operation, Gong Xiaobing, who was in debt, had to choose to run. "To this end, I wrote a long novel this year, called 'The Diary of a Loan Shark Runaway."" Referring to the new book project, Gong Xiaobing said that he is currently writing a "Chengxian Chronicle". "This is a ghost novel, which interprets the legendary story of the erlang god in a big way, and also has the effect of borrowing the ancient irony from the present." After experiencing all kinds of ups and downs in his life, he said that he hopes to become a professional writer in the future. "In fact, I am a person who likes freedom, and I am also a person who is a person who is right about people and things, but my mentality has always been very good, youth and vicissitudes are the cultivation of my soul, and the road of life has just begun."

Gong Xiaobing: Young writer, born in Huangshan in 1982, his ancestral home is Fengyang. At the age of 6, he entered primary school, at the age of 16, he was released from prison in 2000, and at the end of 2002, Gong Xiaobing began to publish autobiographical novels "Nowhere to Escape" (formerly known as "Three Teenagers and a Dog") and "Above the Clouds, Below the Water". At the beginning of 2004, Beijing Ziwenxuan Books Co., Ltd. bought out the five-year copyright of "Nowhere to Escape" for 250,000 yuan, and then propaganda gimmicks such as "Post-80s Literary Leader", "'Post-80s' Concept Proposer", "'Post-80s' Cruel Youth Literature Godfather" and other publicity gimmicks hit him on the Internet. In 2006, Gong Xiaobing, who had successively published 4 literary monographs, became a well-known urban newspaper cultural and entertainment reporter in the provincial city surrounded by many halos.
