——Congratulations on the publication of Ke Yunlu's works collection Wenfeng Ke Yunlu is undoubtedly the most outstanding contemporary political novelist.The political novels mentioned here are not broadly defined as novels with political life as the background, but refer to directly writing about political struggles, and writing about the complex human nature and tactics in political struggles. It is the author's first full-length novel, and it is also a political novel of outstanding significance in the history of contemporary Chinese literature. The TV series of the same name has caused a sensation that has rarely been surpassed until now. Few people over the age of 30 do not know the name of the protagonist Li Xiangnan.Nearly two decades later, when Southern Weekly and other media mentioned it again, they called it an "epoch-making" novel.

When it was published overseas, it was called "The Presentation of Contemporary Officialdom". In the mainland, it was once known as the "Guidelines for the Secretary of the County Party Committee to Engage in Politics". It has made people generally see the true story of China's political struggle under the brilliance of idealism, and also made people familiar with politics see authentic political manipulation methods.The sensation that year was called by the overseas media as "changing some of China's political landscape". Rereading it today is probably indispensable for understanding contemporary Chinese political life.

Ke Yunlu is also a writer who describes contemporary life in an encyclopedic style. The novels "Night and Day" and "Decline and Prosperity" are undoubtedly representative works of contemporary Chinese encyclopedic depictions of social life. In these two books, Ke Yunlu described nearly 200 people, dozens of families, and more than a dozen courtyards in Kyoto in a vast space of one million words, from high-ranking officials to the poor. Yes, it brought out the Kyoto in the 1980s vividly.These two works were popular and sensational because of their strong sense of reality. Not long ago, when the author’s new works were serialized on Sina.com, some netizens posted a post saying that when these two books were published, they were published overnight by many students from Peking University and Tsinghua University.

An encyclopedic description of social life requires first a broad social and humanistic vision, second familiarity with all kinds of characters from all walks of life, third the ability to outline characters in a few words, and fourth the ability to structure a large number of characters and scenes and a magnificent momentum .

Ke Yunlu is undoubtedly a rich man in this regard. Looking at Ke Yunlu's creations in the 1980s, we can also perceive that he had a willingness to follow the mainstream of literary development at that time, but in the end he could not fully twist himself because of his own unique qualities, and the result was somewhat deviated from the literary fashion And show aloof side. After nearly twenty years, many words that seemed fluent and beautiful at that time have become a thing of the past. But "Night and Day" and "Decline and Glory" let us review the heavy value of literary works copying real life.

Year of the Dragon Files is another political novel published by the author after 18 years of publication. Because this novel was published after a period of ups and downs, the People's Literature Publishing House, which published it, called Ke Yunlu's "return to the rivers and lakes" work.As soon as the work was published, it attracted widespread attention.Many literary critics have made positive comments on this work.

It demonstrates the release and disintegration of mellow accumulation, permeates the domineering comeback, and is full of familiarity and confidence in creating best-selling works.

Chen Xiaoming said that the book fully demonstrates the vitality endowed by power to human nature. In the narrative, the spectacle of the scene is pushed to the extreme, and it can even be said to create a "post-modern spectacle".He believes that in the contemporary era when novels have become an almost exhausted art form, "The Year of the Dragon Files" not only allows us to see the spectacle of human nature, but also reminds us of the issue of localized resources of literature. If it is said that the political struggle of a county epitomizes the social and political life of China, then "Year of the Dragon Files" epitomizes the social life of contemporary China with the political struggle of a city.As the publisher said, "The Year of the Dragon Files" is larger than the struggle, and the plot is more tortuous. However, the author's mature and concise narrative almost makes many readers want to read it. The characters and stories that have appeared in various colors have left a deep impression on people.

"The Year of the Dragon Files" clearly shows that the game in the political power field is not one-way correspondence but complex. Ke Yunlu first entered the literary world in 1980 when he won the National Award for his debut short story, and he has never been able to stop since then.
