On August 24, 2008 (July 24, 2008 in the lunar calendar), Wei Wei, author of "Who is the Loveliest Person", died of illness at the age of 88. Wei Wei On August 24, 2008, famous military writer Wei Wei passed away due to illness at the age of 88. On the evening of August 24, Wei Wei, a famous writer who caused a sensation in China with his prose "Who is the Loveliest Person", died of illness. After "Who is the loveliest person" became popular across the country,"the loveliest person" became synonymous with the People's Liberation Army. Wei Wei's simple and unrestrained words sublimated the pursuit of ideals to a touching realm and fixed an era of surging passion. Wei Wei won the first Mao Dun Literature Award in 1983. After co-writing and publishing the novella "The Storm in the Sky" with Bai Ai in 1952, he collaborated with Qian Xiaohui to write the movie novel "Red Storm" in 1956. Extended reading: Looking at Wei Wei's back, what should we think about? Extended reading: Looking at Wei Wei's back, what should we think about Wei: What does 20 years of cross-era creation mean? In middle school textbooks,"Who is the loveliest Person?", I think many people have read it. This was only Wei Wei's famous work. Later, he wrote many excellent works, such as the War Trilogy,"The Red Ribbon of the Earth","Fire Phoenix" and "The Orient". "Oriental" won the first Mao Dun Literature Award. Wei Wei spent 20 years completing this masterpiece, writing from 1958 to 1978. At that time, the work "Who is the Loveliest Person" and the writer Wei Wei were unknown to everyone in China. In 1958, he was already the most popular writer in China's literary world. But he was able to bury his head and write a great literary masterpiece in 20 years, which is an extremely rare phenomenon in China's literary world. In the process, he also participated in the creation of the epic "The East is Red". This epic performance immediately caused a sensation across the country. This not only reflects the resilience of an older generation writer in China, but also reflects the ideological sentiments of an old writer who cares about the motherland and the destiny of the nation. It can be seen from Wei Wei's creations that he had something to say to the world. He tried to make his country richer, his people happier, his army stronger, and even the world better through his creations. Where is the strongest voice of the times? Famous scholar Peng Ding 'an believes that Wei Wei used a short newsletter "Who is the Loveliest Person" to play the strongest voice of an era to inspire the spirit of China people and enhance people's patriotism and internationalism. This is not easy. The strongest voice of the times, where is it? The strength of this newsletter lies in the eternal soul of this newsletter, which is the foundation for the spread of the work. Peng Lao believes that "Who is the loveliest person" plays an important role in building the spiritual world of China people. Jumping away from Wei Wei's works and looking around today's literary world, I am afraid that there are few works that can create the same strong voice of the times as "Who is the Loveliest Person", or none at all. Just imagine, isn't the weakness of contemporary China literature caused by the lack of this soul, this persistence and tenacity? With less soul and less spirit, how can we go far? Times¡¤"Big Self"¡¤"Small Self" Whenever an old writer and artist die, someone will always say,"This represents the departure of an era." The author cannot agree with this. Did Wei Wei pass away and "Who is the Loveliest Person" leave the textbook? Will the reputation of the "loveliest person" of the soldiers disappear? Looking at the works of the great foreign writers of the 19th and 20th centuries, Lu Xun and Ba Jin in China, did their works cease to be circulated because of their deaths? Famous writer Lu Tianming said,"I have not studied Teacher Wei carefully and am not qualified to evaluate his literary achievements. But I know that there are some people who don't approve of Teacher Wei's living and writing methods. They do not want writers, or even literature, to be closely connected with the destiny of the entire nation and the destiny of the times. How to live and how to write is the writer's own business. However, I don't think we can remain indifferent in front of Teacher Wei Wei." On the Korean battlefield, Wei Wei used his own experience to combine the destiny of the nation and the country, and wrote a "big self". This "big self" is as big as the people, the country, and the nation. This is the foundation why Wei Wei's works can be so shocking. Looking at the current popular youth reading books and romance reading books, they are the manifestations of individual writers and the individuals created by writers. Zhang's parents and Li's shortcomings are concerned about the "small self". Crossing the ocean and time and space is also a personal matter, lacking a sense of the times and a sense of depth. Looking at Wei Wei's back, shouldn't we transcend the times and create a batch of works of the "big self"?
