Reprinted] "Kanye" De Mao's life in Shu.

■ Zhang Hongping Yu Xianghua Song Yajuan

Under the root of the imperial city, it is the first 10 generation of Kangxi. In the historical city, he is a "stranger"; In the art world, he is unique in carving, painting, writing and photographing. The river in Zhugongxi is not as clear as it was a few years ago. The only constant is the clear birdsong from the vast bamboo forest and Zi Shan nearby. This is a very secluded corner of Leshan City. During the period of 10, the descendant of the royal family of the Qing Dynasty, Aisinji Yolodemao, moved to the "old nest" four times and finally chose this place. 10 years is enough to change the mood of many people, not to mention a person who abandoned Beijing's prosperous life to Leshan City for love. The story happened in 1996. That year, Demao was 48 years old and his son was 9 years old. For "running far away", a friend beat him: "Are you out of your mind?" He said, "I just got hit by a door." That door is called sex. This love drama with no ending, the protagonist is Demao and a Leshan girl, who connect Beijing and Leshan. In the early 1990s, Demao, who had divorced, lived alone with his son. By chance, I met a Leshan girl who came to Beijing to study. In recent years, the beauty has spread books, and their feelings have "warmed up". 1March, 996, Demao resolutely decided to go to Leshan to pursue love. Before he left, he visited his cousin, a famous artist. Demao and Qigong have a special feeling. They also love art. Qigong has three seals, all carved by his cousin Demao. I heard that Demao, who is in his thirties, is going out of town, and Qigong is very worried. On the day of departure, in front of the railway station platform, my good friend who saw me off held his head and kept beating: "Are you out of your mind?" He replied blankly, "There was no water, just being hit by a door." Saying goodbye to Beijing, he never looked back. "I dare not look back, I am afraid that I have changed my path in an instant." Four years after arriving in Leshan, Demao finally returned to Beijing, only to know the pain of her sister leaving without saying goodbye. My sister went all over the street to look for him, and looked everywhere my brother loved to go. Finally, someone couldn't bear to tell her, "Your brother has gone to Sichuan." Four years later, I saw my brother suddenly bump into my eyes, black and thin, with whiter hair on his head. My sister was too distressed to say a word for a long time. Demao finally had a chance to tell her in front of her sister. During his four years in Leshan, Demao felt the deepest homesickness. One night, Demao walked on the binjiang road in Leshan, and people came and went, carefree and happy, written on different faces. A little boy of seven or eight years old ran over and grabbed his skirt. When the child ran away, the sense of loss suddenly climbed into my heart. When I got home, I spread out the paper, and my emotions spread wildly. A sleepless night, 180 pages of letters piled up on the desk. Then I trotted to the post office and sent my homesickness to Beijing and my sister. A strange love affair between Demao and Leshan girl finally came to an end for various reasons. However, Demao, who is open-minded, has forged an indissoluble bond with Leshan, a spiritual city. After returning to Beijing for a few days during the Spring Festival, my son asked, "When will you go home?" He was surprised: "Which home?" Are you not at home now? "In Leshan City, Demao has changed four places, namely Zhanggong Bridge, Yutang Street, Niudang Bridge and now Zhugongxi. In his memory, the most unforgettable one was in the primary school residential building of Niushao Bridge. This is an old building with three floors. He lives on the first floor with his son. The house has been in disrepair for a long time, and the crack of the door is one inch wide after deformation. At night, mice are like nobody's business, and the story of Demao and his son getting up in the middle of the night to catch mice also happens day after day. When he first arrived in Leshan, he was unaccompanied, and a friend he just met provided him with a house. Later, he made many friends, including artists, national cadres, and masters who shined shoes and pedaled tricycles. Some friends will give generously when you are stolen in the street and are at a loss; When he suddenly fell ill and his life was dying, it was also several friends from Leshan who sent him to the hospital, which saved him from danger. Once, a painter from Leshan came here and found Demao's home in Zhugongxi. The house without the hostess is in a mess, and the painter with a brush in his hand washes clothes in a hurry. This incident made Demao quite touched, and he felt that the most difficult thing to give up was the deep human touch of the small town in central Sichuan. Now, Demao's son 19 is used to living in Leshan. When I returned to Beijing during the Spring Festival one year, my son who didn't stay for a few days suddenly asked his father, "Are we going home for a long time?" Demao asked his son in surprise, "Go home? Go back to which home? Isn't this home? " Someone asked, "What is stilted beef?" He hurried to the study and then replied, "People are short, so we have to put the stool on a higher shelf. "De Mao has a lot of ink in his stomach. Besides seal cutting and calligraphy, he is also a standard "Kanye". As long as he is here, this place will not be deserted. He learned to sing Sichuan Opera and enthusiastically studied the local culture of Leshan. " Kanye told the local people that the origin of "Box Street" was related to "a group of foreigners carrying boxes sold combs there in the past", and many old Leshan people were also greatly surprised; He also studied the famous stilt beef in Suji Town, Leshan, and said, "Why do diners use stools higher than tables? It turns out that the people here are not high, so we have to put the stool higher. "Demao traveled all over the remote Leshan town, where his series of paintings were created. His series "Hometown in Central Sichuan" shows the beauty of Fujian and Hubei in many ways. He used the atmosphere of Beijing painters to draw a graceful and ethereal history. After living in Leshan for a long time, I invited my relatives and friends in Beijing. Seeing Demao's comfort, everyone's worries disappeared without a trace. Now Demao is a busy man, and his calligraphy, painting and seal cutting are collected by many people. Recently, he has been fascinated by photography again, and he runs around with his camera bag on his back whenever he has time. In a university in Sichuan, De Mao took 18 graduate students to teach and study Qing history. He also presided over the work of Leshan Painting and Calligraphy Collection Association. No one asked Demao where he would go in the future. For him, going south 10 years ago may have doomed his life to be related to Shushan and Shushui.

Aisingiorro Demao: Leshan Daily Beijing painter Buju Leshan/Wei 1996 A Beijing painter came to Leshan because he fell in love with a Leshan girl. Although the relationship ended soon, he didn't leave. He said: "Leshan's beautiful mountains and rivers, the charm of profound cultural accumulation, and the corresponding popularity have irresistible temptations." So far, he has lived in an apartment by Zhugong River for 10 years. His name is Eisengiro Demao. 1948 was born in Beijing, a descendant of the Qing royal family. 1982 graduated from the graduate class of Chinese painting of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. China Academy of Fine Arts is a full-time painter and a national first-class artist. He is good at calligraphy, painting, epigraphy and seal cutting, and also likes music. This is a refined man who likes to deviate from convention in artistic exploration and publicize his unique personality. His calligraphy is mainly running script, coarse and fine, bold and vigorous. "Biography of Contemporary Literary Talents in China" commented: "Demao ... devoted himself to studying the unique decoration, deformation and exaggeration of modern calligraphy, and the change of ink color was similar to the melody rhythm of symphonic music, striving for innovation, being brave in practice, seeking merit outside the words and taking his own path." In painting, landscapes, flowers, birds and figures are presented simultaneously, especially the ethereal inspiration of famous mountains and rivers is the most infectious. Its stone seal cutting, ancient knife method, powerful point strokes, thick and simple, has been used by more than 20 thousand people at home and abroad for 30 years. His works have been exhibited in Singapore, Korea, Japan, Canada and other countries for many times, and he has also held solo exhibitions in Beijing, Yinchuan, Shijiazhuang and Chengdu. Many fine works have been collected by Zhongnanhai, Diaoyutai State Guesthouse and foreign friends in Beijing. 1995, China Painting and Calligraphy Artists Association held the "National Masters Cup Invitational Tournament for China Famous Painters' Works" and won the gold medal. Although Mr. Demao has traveled all over most of the famous mountains and rivers in the motherland, he has a special liking for Leshan. In recent years, he has traveled all over history. The majestic Leshan Giant Buddha, the picturesque Emei Mountain, the Huangge Tree of Wu Tong Bridge, the thorny Grand Canyon of Xiba, the ancient town near Mabian, the Yi people's customs in Ebian, the rushing Dadu River and the calm Minjiang River all fascinated him. He often carries a picture clip on his back, wading through mountains and rivers, and sketching in inaccessible places. The fog of the sea of clouds, the bamboo hedges of firewood, exotic flowers and grasses, ancient trees and rocks, withered vines and moss, and the simple folk customs in the countryside all triggered his inspiration and aroused his creative impulse. His series of paintings "History of Shuxiang" shows the beauty of the land of Fujian and Hubei in many ways, many of which dig out unexpected and moving interests from ordinary scenery, reflecting his infinite affection for Leshan, a hot land. Mr. Demao especially likes to make friends with Leshan people. In his "Zilezhai" studio, there are not only literati, but also government officials and employees of enterprises and institutions, and he also warmly receives them to paint. He told the author that there were two unforgettable things that made him feel special about Leshan people. First, when I first arrived in Leshan, I was a stranger and had no friends. It was a friend of Leshan who just met him and enthusiastically provided him with housing. A few days later, he was robbed in the street, penniless and helpless, and this friend generously supported him. Second, a sudden illness, several Leshan friends quickly sent him to the hospital for rescue, which made him out of danger. Since then, he has lived in Leshan for a long time. Whenever he is free, he will wander around the street, listen to Sichuan Opera, watch the 1920s and 1970s, learn to speak Leshan dialect, read Leshan Daily and Leshan Evening News every day, and collect various cultural materials of Leshan. Today, he knows the geography, history, cultural relics and anecdotes of Leshan like the back of his hand and has become an expert in Leshan. On one occasion, Yang Rudai, vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, once served as secretary of Leshan District Committee, "sounded him out" face to face: "I heard that you are familiar with Leshan. Do you know Niukouer Bridge? " After answering the exact location, Demao added: "Leshan people are good at making words and adding a mouth to their ears is the original creation of Leshan people." Then, he said that Zhang Gongqiao was built by Zhang, an official of the Qing Dynasty. Ding Dong Street is named after Ding Dong Well, and Xiao Lao Peak was originally named Shen Xiaoyu Qing Wanshou Palace ... Yang Rudai smiled and said, "It's really a Leshan boy!" Through frequent mutual learning, Mr. De Mao and people in Leshan calligraphy and painting circles have enhanced their friendship and merged into one. In May 2004, he was elected president of Leshan Calligraphy and Painting Collection Association. Today, the 57-year-old Beijing painter is still splashing ink on the banks of the Zhu Gong River day after day, tirelessly pursuing his artistic realm. I asked him how long he would stay here. He smiled and replied, "I like Leshan, so stay!" " (End)
