Lu Yao: In order to find inspiration, he vomited blood and wrote a long masterpiece. He signed the divorce papers in tears three days before his death.

Lead: What a writer is most gratified about is not how high his achievements were before his death. But decades or even hundreds of years after his death, people still miss him and talk about his works.

1991March 10, Ordinary World won the first prize of Mao Dun Literature Award. From Lu Yao's speech, we can see the difficulty of his creation of this work.

The Third Mao Dun Literature Award

This award should be regarded as the last gift for Lu Yao, because one year later, he died of illness in Xi 'an at the age of 42.

Lu Yao is not tall, with a round face, small eyes, squinting and bowlegged. He walks with one shoulder high and one shoulder low.

1949, a native of Yulin, Shaanxi, formerly known as Wang Weiguo, is a peasant family. At the age of seven, he walked 50 miles before he found out that his father wanted to adopt himself to his uncle's eldest brother. This sadness will be remembered many years later, even at the moment of his death.

He clearly remembers watching his father disappear a little, and then he cried hysterically.

His childhood should be unhappy. He once learned to call a dog in order to eat a classmate's steamed stuffed bun. Since then,? Poverty? The word is deeply engraved in his mind.

Lu Yao when I was a child

Fortunately, I didn't delay my study. After graduating from primary school, the adoptive father saw Lu Yao's excellent academic performance and had to sell iron for him to study.

1968, as an adult, Lu Yao served as the deputy county magistrate of Yanchuan County. A year later, he returned to his hometown to farm, and he could only bury his ideal in his heart.

From 65438 to 0973, Lu Yao's life began to change. This year, he read many Chinese and foreign classics in Yan 'an University, and then a novel he wrote was published.

20-year-old Lu Yao

In the following years, many works were published one after another. Until 1984, Lu Yao began to prepare for the creation of "Ordinary World", so he came to Chenjiashan Coal Mine in Tongchuan to find materials and inspiration.

He goes down to the mine with his workmates every day, eats and lives together, just for inspiration. At that time, there was not enough food and I often worked hungry. No matter day or night, I will write it down with a little inspiration. Some people say that these days have also caused harm to Lu Yao's body.

Fortunately, the first part of Ordinary World was successfully completed, and he was very excited. He wanted to continue publishing his works in the contemporary era (previously published), but the editor refused.

This can't be blamed on the editors, who feel that this book has no suspense and is not suitable for contemporary people.

But he didn't give up because of it. Later, he wrote a second film in the county guest house. The weather is cold, and he often suffers from frostbite. After his hands became stiff, he just warmed himself up with a thermos and continued to write.

The road to physical fatigue is still far away.

Ordinary World is really a work of vomiting blood. At that time, Lu Yao's body had changed, and he sometimes coughed and bled when writing.

Until the beginning of the third film, his family advised him not to write, and he said? Read the last book even if you die? !

1986, The Ordinary World was published in the first and second parts. As an ordinary worker's novel written by realism, people don't think highly of it.

Because in the past few years of his creation, the contemporary literary world has been changing, many writers have begun to try new ways of writing, and many people laugh at his writing style, which has long been out of date.

In this case, Lu Yao is very stubborn, he said:

! Did Tolstoy, Cao Xueqin and Liu Qing become students of these boys overnight? ?

Jia Pingwa also recalled that Lu Yao was persistent in literature and often called names. For example, Lu Yao once vented his emotions to him. Son of a bitch, don't even know literature! ?

Young Shaanxi writers such as Lu Yao, Chen and Jia Pingwa.

In fact, in Lu Yao's heart, he always thought? A writer can't produce a work, not at all! ?

It turns out that he did it. Ordinary World has become a myth in the history of China's literary creation, and this book has also inspired countless young people.

Until the end of the third book, the whole book * * * counted 10 million words, and the whole article spanned10 years.

In order to write such an article, Lu Yao collected a large number of newspapers, magazines and related background materials. Fortunately, during his college years, he read a lot of literary works, which laid the foundation for him.

With the creative experience of the first two films, the third film is not so difficult. The only difficulty is that his body can't stand such suffering.

The workload is unimaginable. Is it incredible that a writer can grind his fingers and bleed when writing and reading materials?

Supporting wall thinking

Some people say, just write a work, can't you imagine it yourself?

Here, in the words of Lu Yao, let today's writers have a look:

He said:? Life can be a story, but history can't be made up, and there can't be specious things. ?

It is said that before writing Ordinary World, he read A Dream of Red Mansions three times and Liu Qing's History of Entrepreneurship seven times.

For literature, Lu Yao is serious. He values literature more than life!

Of course, he also said:? Fuck literature? !

With the spread of Ordinary World more and more widely, 199 1 year, Lu Yao won the third Mao Dun Literature Award for this work.

After receiving the notice that he was going to Beijing to receive the prize, Lu Yao choked up, because? Poverty? The world has never abandoned him.

Seminar on "Ordinary World"

Sure enough, he had no money to receive the prize.

Fortunately, my brother Wang Tianle borrowed money and invited him to receive the prize. At the moment he got on the train, there was a conversation:

Wang Tianle:? Don't win the lottery again. If you win the Nobel Prize, I can't find foreign exchange for you. ?

Lu Yao:? Fucking literature ?

This is because my mind is full of love for literature to say such a thing!

He never looked back to the ground and got on the train. This award is the best reward for his efforts.

But he didn't know that one of his feet had stepped into the coffin. 1992, Lu Yao was seriously ill in hospital and had a hard time, but now he has to face his wife's forced divorce.

Lu Yao and his wife Linda got married soon.

In fact, Linda has mentioned this divorce many times, but Lu Yao has never agreed. She knew that if she didn't get divorced this time, it would be too late.

Many people turned to Linda and said that she was heartless. For this, the article does not describe too much, because of fate.

However, according to Wang Tianle, Lu Yao's brother and sister-in-law Linda's request is not too much. He said that as a brother-in-law, she can actually understand her behavior.

You know, being a writer's wife is sometimes really difficult, and Yao Lu has many bad habits.

Moreover, at that time, his wife Linda, as an educated youth in Beijing, always wanted to go back to Beijing and seek her own happiness. There is nothing incomprehensible.

Three days before he died

As can be seen from the photo above, this is what he looked like three days before he died in his hospital bed. He endured the pain and signed the divorce agreement with tears in his eyes.

In the same year165438+1October 14, Lu Yao died in the hospital bed of Xijing Hospital at the age of 42.

It's just that although he left, he left a precious fortune in the history of literature.

He once said in his acceptance speech:

Ordinary World has become a thing of the past for me. Compared with the hardships paid by the workers in the book to create a life, the labor paid for six years of creation is not worth mentioning. ?

What he doesn't know is that in the nearly 30 years after his death, Ordinary World has influenced thousands of people.
