Chapter 33 Hualien, a conversation with author Zhong Wenyin

The last time I was invited by the Hualien Cultural and Creative Park under the Cultural Development Council to visit Hualien once. After writing a prescribed travel note to provide Hualien local promotion, I have always had a regret, that is, I encountered a typhoon and felt less of the sunny Hualien. . This regret was quickly vindicated. According to the original cooperation agreement, I must return to Hualien after writing the travel notes, and participate in the symposium on visiting Hualien with the writer Zhong Wenyin, which is basically to report to everyone the process of running around in Hualien, or our feelings.

For me, instead of reporting my trip to Hualien in front of everyone (the travel notes are all written anyway), it is better to focus my observations on Teacher Zhong Wenyin who was present at the meeting.I have always been curious about how other writers view creation and life. Teacher Zhong was invited to Hualien for a visit. She also rented a car and brought her own GPS. Except for these two small similarities, the big difference is that Teacher Zhong revisited the old place. She and Hualien have special memories and feelings. And I have no chance to contact Hualien except for being invited by the school to come to Hualien to give a speech.

Probably because she is too familiar with her, Ms. Chung didn’t talk much about Hualien, but she talked about her travel experience around the world. I benefited a lot from many points of view.For a long time, I have been lacking in the "writer's temperament" imagined by ordinary people, but there is a lot of this writer's temperament in Teacher Zhong Wenyin. I am not a person who particularly likes to travel, but if my friend is going somewhere, I am happy to follow if I have time. On the contrary, because I don’t have the habit of planning what to do, so I am very content to accept my friend’s will when traveling together .It would be even better if there are fantastic places, such as Africa next year.Mr. Zhong has rich travel experience and travels around. Apart from having a lot of time, it is also curious how he can support travel financially.

Everyone knows Sui Yiping, and he often talks about him on TV as a tourist who explores "alien ruins" all over the world, because he doesn't seem to be working (it should be said, it seems that there is no such thing as in the narrow definition) Work).Yes, Mr. Moping is writing a book to educate everyone that aliens are everywhere, but I am very clear about the income from publishing the book. It is absolutely fine to go out to play occasionally, but there is definitely no way to play like that.In addition, Mr. Moping is also receiving TV announcement fees, but I did the calculations for him, and it is obviously not a big income --- I have always been curious about how he can afford the huge travel expenses.

Once when I was watching "Kangxi is Coming", Xiao S asked this question, and Mr. Moping replied flatly: "So you must know how to invest!" Oh!I see!I'm so envious! Although it is a bit impolite to ask such questions, I think Teacher Zhong can understand the basic curiosity of a human being. I asked Teacher Zhong the same question about travel expenses during dinner.Teacher Zhong said very kindly: "The most expensive part of travel is the problem of accommodation, so I always borrow from friends' houses, which can save a lot." And Teacher Zhong has friends in many places, so he can travel The battery life is adjusted to the maximum.

I suddenly realized that friends are very important.I sure can't do that. Teacher Chung also provides a little secret for personal travel, that is, go to a certain place with a group first, and then continue to wander in that place after the group returns to Taiwan. During the period of time with the group, you can consult the tour guide and accumulate the required information. And knowledge, and most important resource, when one explores the place, one will not be too afraid. This is also a very useful method, I should try it some other day. This time I have Xiao Nei to accompany me, because it is more convenient to catch the dog with four hands.

It's a pity that we didn't encounter it when we returned to Liyu Lake the next day. I think he is so obedient and handsome, he must have been brought home by kind people to raise him. Must be!
