Thank you to everyone in Matt City for your enthusiastic response to the interview with@TodayDanteDa'an Store. The preparation of this interview was probably in the middle of February. It took such a long period of time from the invitation to interview, to the interview questions, to the homework process of the article going online. You all laughed while reading the article, to be honest with you, in fact, the one who laughed the most was probably me, who laughed the most every time I read it, in order to compile a response.

At present, there are a total of 11 citizens who have made the action of shaking, setting a record for the most times I have been shaken in Matt City. To express supporters by clapping hands or coining, the family is not as complicated as it is to be loaded, so I will not mark you all here, in short, thank you very much. I have to say that Matt City is really a wonderful writing platform. Any type of writing can be played to new heights here.


Because of this interview, I inadvertently evoked some mottled memories.

When I was in middle school, I was recommended by the school (ㄑ一ㄤˊㄆㄛˋ) to subscribe to a book called "Wen Qingzhi" called "Beijing Youth". I just searched casually, and it's north. This publication is still alive, and there are fans . What's the matter?

I flipped through the "Wen Qing Zhi" that year, and read the victory group of middle school students who went smoothly under the higher education system. It was too hard to be young in writing and writing, and there were too many exams. I wanted to escape from the world outside the textbook, or I wanted to Listen to the wind and the rain alone, eat ice and watch a movie with friends and friends, or go to Wannian Building to skate on ice skates, and then complain that I am lazy by nature and I don’t want to study hard and sleep all the time before the exam. The road to university is uncertain (actually Many people are admitted to National Taiwan University and think that the department is poor).

Using the above-mentioned narrative to show the show of being able to read and play, that is the capital of the students of Lushe Middle School in the latter school. I want to write an article that can be published by "Beijing Youth". Hey, who are you? You don't have the kind of splendid capital to write words, who would want to watch the middle school students in the later schools complaining that the exams are too difficult, the university gate is too narrow, and the school is high-pressure and authoritative. I want to be a fake Wenqing on "Beijing Youth", and I don't have the splendid capital that comes with the status of the victory group in the entrance examination. Don't even think about it. The school didn't use the composition class to arrange the math test, which is already very good. Obediently write the composition of the eight-legged topic for you to practice your writing, you should thank the Lord Longen.


All careers are not afraid of ordinary, only literature can not be ordinary

These days, major media have been broadcasting documentaries of a certain three-generation literary family, and the protagonist sisters have been repeating this passage from their parents' letters. "Rangong Song", which I picked up on the shelf of the library inadvertently when I was in college, although the identity, belief, and campus life in the book have little overlap with my life experience as a backward group in life, but the author was young. Being able to achieve one's own extraordinaryness through writing makes one's heart arouse, and the dream of writing and publishing emerges, becoming a fake literary youth.

Looking through the newspaper supplement, Xiao Qizhong caught a glimpse of the "Literature Handbook" that can be obtained free of charge in a return envelope. The booklet collects various resources, such as literary awards, supplementary contributions, writing courses, and related institutions. Address and telephone (at that time there was no website, let alone a fan club), everything was available. According to the booklet, I first locked a few supplements, and submitted a few manuscripts for the essay on the theme of campus life. I took it for granted that there was no response.

Faced with unemployment after graduation, I didn’t want to be pushed by my parents to the life they expected, so I decided to change the runway, found a temporary job for half a day, saved tuition fees, and spent the rest of the time preparing for graduate school exams. I became a bad historical apprentice, trying to figure out what it was like to read historical materials and write a dissertation, and barely support myself with the occasional tutoring and graduate student grants for living expenses. Playing with words, making words become extraordinary literature, and falsely breaking literary youth, are getting farther and farther away from me.


Teacher, if I want to submit an article to the newspaper, how should I submit it?
Let me tell you, I have a "literary handbook", there are many places where you can contribute, and I will bring it to you next time.

I gave the "Literature Handbook" to the tutor students who were studying at a famous private high school in Taipei at the time. At that time, I had just signed the supervisory professor, put forward the list of qualification examination books, and the road of writing the thesis after that, still had no end in sight. There is no way to use this booklet to become a fake wenqing, so leave it to the seedlings that may become fake wenqing in the future!

Then, after so many years of training in history, I gradually learned that there is a structural context behind what we can become and what we cannot become. Extraordinary literature often has the resources to make it extraordinary. I was not born in a family of manuscripts, and I was not adapted to the system of higher education. Without the label of beauty, I was also deprived of the right to speak. The beginning of writing is difficult and there are many roadblocks. How can there be extraordinary literature?
