The life of writer Sanmao

Sanmao, formerly known as Chen Maoping (later renamed Chen Ping), is a modern Chinese writer. He was born in Chongqing in 1943. In 1948, he moved to Taiwan with his parents. In 1967, he went to Spain to study, and later went to Germany, the United States, etc.

In 1972, Chen Ping encountered emotional and marital blows and left Spain again. Reunion with Jose, the Spaniard whom I met six years ago. Jose, who was still a high school student at the time, had graduated from college, completed his military service, and had a diver's license.

Originally, Jose planned to take a sailing boat with a group of friends to go diving in the Mediterranean area of ??Greece, and invited Chen Ping to serve as a chef for the trip, but Chen Ping had a special liking for the Sahara Desert.

Later, Jose did not go on a sailing boat, but found a job in the Spanish Sahara Phosphate Mine Factory. In 1974, Chen Ping married Jose in an African desert town (Laayoune in the Spanish Sahara) and began their married life in the Spanish Sahara.

In 1984, due to health problems, he resigned from his teaching position and focused on writing and speaking. In April 1989, I returned to my hometown in Mainland China for the first time and found that my works also had many readers in Mainland China.

We also made a special trip to visit Mr. Zhang Leping, who is famous for his comic book "The Wanderings of Sanmao", and fulfilled his long-cherished wish. In 1990, she engaged in script writing and completed her first Chinese script, which was also her last work "Red Dust".

On January 2, 1991, she was admitted to the Taiwan Veterans General Hospital due to endometrial hypertrophy, and the surgery was completed on the 3rd. Sanmao died in the hospital on January 4, 1991, at the age of 48.

Sanmao’s influence:

Sanmao is a character that cannot be positioned in the history of contemporary Chinese literature. She is not considered a great, but in During her lifetime, she once again set off the "Sanmao fever" that swept across the country and abroad.

After Sanmao passed away, people missed Sanmao, and "Sanmao fever" started again. ?Today, the "San Mao craze" continues. According to incomplete statistics, writers have created more than 100 kinds of books on San Mao's biographies and picture albums.

Sanmao became famous in Spain. The last award Sanmao won was the Spanish "Cervantes Literature Prize". The literary influence of Sanmao has attracted the attention of the Spanish government as time progressed. In particular, many Chinese came to Spain mainly for Sanmao.

The mystery of Sanmao’s death:

Sanmao’s life can be said to be full of misfortunes. I suffered from depression when I was in junior high school. Because Sanmao's math scores were not good when he was in junior high school. In order not to repeat a grade, Sanmao found that every time he took a math test, the teacher would give questions from after-class exercises.

She memorized all the answers to the after-school exercises and got 100 points in the exam. The math teacher insisted that Sanmao was cheating and gave Sanmao a very difficult paper to do. Sanmao got 0 points, and the teacher wanted to humiliate Sanmao.

Using a brush, he drew two circles around San Mao’s eyes, which represented two zero eggs. San Mao was hit hard and suffered from depression ever since. After dropping out of junior high school, Sanmao's father recommended Sanmao to start studying Chinese studies.

The person who helped Sanmao get out of depression was Sanmao's teacher, Gu Fusheng, who encouraged Sanmao's literary creation. Sanmao was very narcissistic at that time, and what he wrote was also full of deep narcissism.

Later, he met his first love Liang Guangming at Wenhua College. In his junior year, Sanmao went through the procedures to study in Spain in order to force a marriage, but as a result, Liang Guangming and Sanmao broke up. In fact, it’s hard to say whether Liang Guangming is too scumbag or Sanmao is too willful.

After Sanmao broke up with Liang Guangming, she self-inflicted 28 stitches. This may be caused by Sanmao's depression, or it may be that Sanmao is too affectionate, but even if the girl does this, it will have no effect at all and will only make him hate himself even more.

The only one you hurt is yourself. ?Later, he went to Spain to study in 1967. When he returned home, he fell in love with the painter Deng Guochuan. It turned out that Deng Guochuan actually had a family. In the same year, she fell in love with a German teacher introduced by her father and agreed to propose.

But he died of a heart attack the day before the wedding. Later, due to emotional difficulties, Sanmao went to Spain again, where he met his old classmate José. They spent a wonderful life together in the Sahara Desert and married José five years later.

José died accidentally while diving in the sea. It wasn't Sanmao's parents who stopped Sanmao from Russia. I'm afraid Sanmao would have gone with Jose at that time. Later, Sanmao resigned as associate professor of the Chinese Department of Chinese Culture University in 1982 due to health problems.

Go to the United States for surgical treatment. Later, in 1985, he lost his memory and became insane. Died on January 4, 1991.
