It can be seen that the titles of his books have been carefully thought out, and they were not randomly installed.He spent about ten years revising and polishing after he stopped writing, and his creative attitude can be compared with any great writer. Jin Yong creates with his own life, he does not repeat his predecessors, nor himself. He injected new blood into the traditional thinking mode and made an attempt for the modernization of martial arts culture.Especially through Guo Jing, Yang Guo, Linghu Chong and other young heroes who despised the desire for power, they exalted the spirit of dignity, independence and personal freedom, which is the "only reliable source of progress" for human beings.

The world of temperament described by Jin Yong is full of human nature, and the love between Guo Jing and Huang Rong, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv, Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying, Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua has captivated countless readers. Jin Yong's works have completely broken the boundary between "pure literature" and "popular literature".Here, everything is integrated and directly pointed to people's hearts.It is what you say it is, and boundaries and distinctions are meaningless.A strong feeling of compassion for heaven and earth permeated it.This is a sentiment that all great writers share.

Jin Yong said this: "I think literature is mainly to express people's feelings. Literature is not for reasoning. If it can express people's feelings deeply and vividly, it is good literature....After all, novels still reflect In terms of life, I think emotions are still a very important part of life in the final analysis, so we should focus on reflecting the most important emotional issues in life experience." When it comes to the great sorrow of life, the dreamlike sentiments, the desolation of impermanence, and the tears of emotion, Cao Xueqin and Jin Yong are probably the best writers in the history of Chinese literature.In a word, they have written the Chinese people's feelings about life.

He has written so many martial arts and is also known as a "hero". Can Jin Yong know martial arts?And listen to his own confession: It seems that the hero Jin Yong is just a scholar. An important contribution of Jin Yong's novels is that they corrected the bad habits of Europeanization in the new literature and art since the May Fourth Movement, and truly wrote the verve of Chinese.As early as the 1950s, Jin Yong realized the importance of language issues.He pointed out: In the history of world literature, almost no writer has ever written a great work in another language.English and French are very close, and many British people can speak French since childhood, but no British writer has ever written a great work in French.Of course, it is not difficult to write ordinary articles. The difficulty lies in the many subtleties in the text, and many differences that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words, which foreign writers cannot grasp.According to my writing experience, because this is a novel set in the Qing Dynasty, I have tried my best to avoid all modern vocabulary and concepts. Instead of "thinking" and "consideration" and so on; use "careful" and "careful" to replace "note" and so on.This novel is just an entertaining popular book, but I think that those sinologists in France and Germany, although they have done a lot of research on "Shang Shu" and "Chu Ci", and I can't understand many ancient books, However, they may not be able to distinguish the subtle difference between "watch out" and "note".This is already the case for indifferent popular novels, but when it comes to real literary works, it is even more important.

The brushwork used in Jin Yong's novels is not pure vernacular, but a unique brushwork in traditional Chinese novels.In the first paragraph, the method is vivid, and even the word "Zhemo" is used.But if it is used properly, it will never hinder the appreciation of the novel by modern readers.Although it is not pure vernacular, the degree of colloquialism is even higher than that of vernacular. In modern martial arts novels, Jin Yong undoubtedly has the status of a master, and is a veritable "Wulin leader".He is not only the shaper of modern martial arts novels - I am afraid that there are no martial arts novel writers after Jin Yong who have not been influenced by him - what is especially valuable and difficult for other writers is his extremely extensive knowledge of history, geography and classical literature , and a deep understanding of human nature.He can write works with real and rich content, profound and reasonable artistic conception without any effort, so that his martial arts novels can not only be entertaining, but also have something to do with the heart, so they have full literary value.

"Are martial arts novels literature?" Jin Yong said: "I personally think that no matter what kind of novel it is, it doesn't matter much whether it is a literary work or not, and what kind of novel it belongs to. The question is whether a work can move people. It’s meaningless, and it’s not about whether it’s expressed in the way of martial arts.... Some people also ask why so many people like to read martial arts novels. I think the most important thing is that martial arts novels are more based on Chinese traditions. It’s written It is Chinese society, and more importantly, its values ​​are traditionally acceptable to Chinese people. It is written about Chinese morals and ethics, and has a strong national color, which is one of the reasons it attracts Chinese readers.”

The famous scholar Xia Ji'an is very fond of reading martial arts novels.Before Jin Yong wrote martial arts, he said to his friends: There is great potential for martial arts novels, because no one has ever written them well.He also said that if there is really no other way in the future, he will definitely find a way to write about it.Later, when he saw it in Taiwan, he said: "The real man has appeared, so I have no choice but to go to Fuyu country." Critic Lin Yiliang said: "Where there are Chinese and Chinatowns, there are Jin Yong's martial arts novels." In fact, from scholars and professors who won the Nobel Prize to traffickers, from dignitaries to ordinary people, from the Loess Plateau to the United States, from the elderly to children, there are fans of Jin Yong in all walks of life and in all places.Jin Yong is the Jin Yong of the Chinese (Chinese).Since this century, which Chinese writer has gained such wide acceptance?What works can be written so well?

Professor Jin Yaoji said: "I believe that there is no one like Mr. Cha who can use Chinese past novels and literary materials so freely." Ni Kuang praised enthusiastically: "I read Jin Yong's novels over and over again, and every time I read them, I am amazed and amazed." From the 1950s to the mid-1970s, Jin Yong's novels were popular in Hong Kong, Macao and overseas, but the Chinese in the mainland and Taiwan hardly knew his name, and even if they knew it, they only got it from underground channels. Jin Yong was at the front, denouncing the arbitrariness and tyranny of the "literary prison".This kind of mentality, which has existed since ancient times in Chinese history, contains the ruler's hatred for culture and knowledge, and the fear of free personality. In the final analysis, it is a manifestation of the policy of ignoring the people.The ten-year catastrophe in the mainland has brought this "tradition" to the extreme.And in Taiwan, the same way of thinking looms large in various cultural policies. Until September 1979, Jin Yong's novels were still listed as "banned" in Taiwan.In fact, since the 1970s, Jin Yong's novels have flowed into Baodao through various informal channels and won the love of many people.Mr. Shen Dengen, publisher of Vision Publishing House, recalled: .At that time, my work was not as busy as it is now, and I had plenty of free time every day. In less than a day and a night, I finished "Shooting the Condors", and my mind was full of Hong Qigong, Guo Jing, Huang Yaoshi, Huang Rong, and Zhou Botong. , Ouyang Feng...'s shadow. Shen Dengen found out the "Prohibited Catalogue" and found out that all Jin Yong's novels were included in the banned list.But almost no one knows why the ban was imposed, anyway, the "superior" stipulated it this way.Perhaps the probation officer himself loves to read Jin Yong's novels, but he can only follow the rules, there is nothing he can do, and the rules of the "superior" cannot be changed.As for who the "superior" is, it is unclear. Anyway, there is such a "superior", and his instructions must be carried out, that's all. It is said that when Chiang Ching-kuo was the executive president, he once held a year-end reporter's garden party and counted the heroes among overseas scholars.Yan Jiagan (who once served as the president of the Kuomintang) also sent guards to the publishing house to look for it.When Sun Ke was ill, it was Jin Yong's martial arts novels that he could not forget.Even Song Chuyu, director of the KMT's Information Bureau, borrowed from Shen Dengen in private.Despite this, Jin Yong's book was inexplicably banned. Around 1977, Shen Dengen proposed to the Kuomintang authorities that the ban on Jin Yong's works should be lifted.After many twists and turns, finally in September 1979, Mr. Shen got an official document stating that "no inappropriateness has been found in Jin Yong's novels", and he agreed to publish Jin Yong's novels in Taiwan by Vision Publishing House.Since then, Jin Yong fever has appeared in Taiwan. Taiwan's two major newspapers "China Times" and "United Daily News" launched a fierce battle, but also look at the memories of Shen Dengen: First published in the newspaper, and formally meet Taiwan readers. On the first day of publication of Lianhe News, Gao Xinjiang (Chief Editor-in-Chief of the Times Supplement) appeared in Yuanjing's editorial office in a state of dismay before 10:00 a.m.He said that if he loses the battle with Jin Yong, Mr. Yu Jizhong will definitely fire him and ask me to give up all Jin Yong's novels to be serialized in "Human Supplement".Brother Xinjiang, like me, is a very competitive person. We are old friends, and I have no reason to reject him.What's more, to make Jin Yong's novels read by more readers is the biggest purpose of my fight to lift the ban on Jin Yong's works, so I immediately agreed.Only then did Brother Xinjiang start to have a smile on his face. After the ban was lifted, the media showed great enthusiasm, and the film and television industry also actively participated.The Chinese in Taiwan can finally fully understand the most outstanding Chinese novelist of this century—from his works to his creations.However, occasional turmoil also appeared. His novels and TV series were considered by some to be politically charged, and were banned and banned.It was renamed "The Legend of the Desert Heroes", but it still couldn't pass. The "Asian" magazine published on April 5, 1985 disclosed this incident: , Recently, there has been news on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.On the CCP’s side, the public Beijing “Friendship Publishing Company” announced the publication.In Taiwan, TTV announced that it was about to start filming, but was immediately banned by the Ministry of Security. It was renamed "The Legend of the Desert Heroes" in Taiwan, and was published by Yuanjing Publishing Company.Jin Yong's other martial arts novels have all been banned, but this novel has not lifted the ban so far. It resulted in extremely high ratings. Therefore, after the news of the shooting came out, it immediately shocked the other two TV stations. Jin Yong himself once wrote an article to defend himself. He said: "Shooting eagles is a long-standing martial act of the northern Chinese people. In "Historical Records·Li Guang Biography", Li Guang once said: "It is the one who must shoot the eagles/Wang Weiyou Poetry: "Looking back at the place where the eagles are shot, the clouds are flat for thousands of miles." There is another poem: "When the clouds are empty and the moraine is empty, the horses are driven, and the sunset is good for shooting the eagles on the plain." Yang Juyuan's poem: "The sky is greener when shooting the eagles, and the plug is still yellow when you blow the horns." "Wen Tingyun's poem: "Go to Saichen to graze the horses, and the beacon fire shoots the eagles back." Huang Tingjian's poem: "In peace with thousands of miles of sand, frost eyes to see the eagles." Chinese literature describing life outside the Great Wall often mentions the eagles, "two birds with one stone" The Chinese idioms are even more common. In Mao Zedong’s Ci, there is no combination of the words “shooting the eagles” and only one sentence: “I only know how to bend the bow and shoot the big eagles.” Everyone has the right to use Chinese characters, not just because Mao Zedong wrote them. , monopolize it, and no one else can use it.” Censorship belongs to banning, but characters like Guo Jing and Huang Rong have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the mainland, since the early 1980s, a large number of Jin Yong's works have flowed in.But in more than ten years, only Tianjin Baihua Literature and Art Publishing House has been authorized by the author.Thousands of other versions are pirates. Many versions are shoddy and full of mistakes.There are also people who write and publish martial arts novels and even pornographic works under the name of "Jin Yong". It was not until 1994 that Sanlian Bookstore formally signed a contract with Jin Yong to publish the "Complete Works of Jin Yong" in simplified characters in mainland China. This was a major event in the Han cultural circle.After decades of circulation, Jin Yong's works have finally been published on a large scale in China. There has long been a "Jin Yong Society" overseas, and Taiwan's Vision Publishing House once released a set of ten volumes of "Jinology Research Series", which pioneered the study of "Jinology".Since the end of the 1980s, mainland China has also successively published various research works.Sanlian Publishing Co., Ltd. launched a new edition of "The Complete Works of Jin Yong", which set off a craze for Jin Yong and martial arts in mainland China.Now, the upsurge of "Golden Studies" has swept across China.
