Yu Hua and Ma Yuan old friends reunite again. Ye Zhaoyan recalls his grandfather Ye Shengtao.

Ye Zhaoyan, vice chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Writers Association, appeared as a guest at “Boundary Bookstore” and had an in-depth and enlightening literary dialogue with two friends in the literary world, Yu Hua and Su Tong.In this rare gathering, the three writers not only shared their creative experiences, but also had a heated discussion on the inheritance and continuation of literature.

Ye Zhaoyan candidly reviewed his writing process.He said that it was not smooth when he first started writing, and he even encountered rejections for five years.The experience of having a novel rejected more than a dozen times made him feel frustrated.However, it was with the encouragement of Gao Xiaosheng that he persisted. Even if the work was returned, he insisted on continuing to create and put the written work in the drawer.This persistence and love for literature not only allowed Ye Zhaoyan to continue to grow in adversity, but also inspired him to constantly pursue a higher literary realm.

When talking about the inheritance and continuation of literature, Cheng Yongxin also expressed a lot of emotion.He believes that the inheritance of literature is not only through words and stories, but more importantly, it is a spiritual inheritance.This spirit includes love for life, insight into human nature, and a sense of responsibility to society.Through the efforts of generations of writers, literature has continued and developed, becoming an important part of human spiritual culture.

At this gathering, Su Tong also accidentally discovered a special book - One Hundred Years of Solitude -.This book was a gift specially sent to them by the famous avant-garde writer Ma Yuan.
