Twenty years ago, Zhang Haidi was still a young and vigorous young man when she was clutching her fate. Twenty years later, is she still knocking on the door of fate? Let us take a look at Zhang Haidi's inner world.
About reputation
Twenty years ago, Zhang Haidi had a prominent reputation. Such a reputation is something that an actor or a star can only dream of. It's a pity that Zhang Haidi lights up life with reading
Zhang Haidi is not Zhang Haidi. Zhang Haidi has a strong will and a fragile soul. She is now a writer, but she said: "In recent years, I have been very clear that my reputation outside of literature is greater than my literary creation itself...". She also said, "I never care about those things, I only care about the literary creation itself. How can I make my works better..." But everyone can see that she cares. She always felt that her works were not good enough, and that her books were selling well because of her reputation rather than her works, so she kept squeezing herself. However, as a disabled person, the society she had access to was too limited, so she had to desperately dig into her heart and fantasize. In such oppression and helplessness, Zhang Haidi became more and more painful. The physical pain can be seen by others, and she can also express it. However, Zhang Haidi cannot express the inner pain. Even if she expresses it, no one will care. Zhang Haidi said: "Twenty years have passed. Looking back now, I have always been very calm when facing the media. When you suddenly face so many flashes, laughter, and applause, the most important thing is to adjust yourself. What should I do? My heart is always like a clear water, so blue and so deep. My outer personality makes people feel very friendly. Everyone calls me sister or aunt when they meet me. In fact, there is something deeper in my heart, which is tranquility. This is what illness and reading have given me. It makes me feel what is most beautiful and what should be pursued. I have always believed that thinking women are the most beautiful, and knowledge changes destiny. I feel the most profoundly when I think about that today. Over the past few days, I have been grateful for the 150,000 letters. Although I cannot reply to them all, they are always in my heart. I want to thank everyone who loves me and cares about me. I understand more and more why people love the sea. Di, that’s because she has the courage to face illness and difficulties. This is also what I am proud of in this life. Maybe I haven’t done enough in other aspects, but I believe that I am a strong and brave woman, no matter when Never give up on my dreams and pursuits, never give up every bit of my efforts. Looking back on the past, I did not spend every step of my life in vain. When I had no voice, it was when I was trudging along the long river of my career. Many friends around me also said to me, Heidi, why do you always refuse various interviews? This will make people suspicious.
I think I should have no voice. First of all, I am one of thousands of ordinary people. Secondly, I am a writer. This profession does not require performing on the front stage, but requires thinking, studying, researching and writing behind the scenes and at the desk. The life of a writer is not colorful, not to mention that I belong to the kind of writer who finds it difficult to write. ”
About walking
Walking is actually very simple. It only requires three props: a leisurely mood, pleasant scenery and healthy legs. Zhang Haidi has none of these three. But she can still take a walk. She has her husband Wang Zuoliang. Their walk is like this: Wang Zuoliang pushes Zhang Haidi, so that her legs are strong. In order to avoid the crowd of onlookers, she chooses the place for the walk at her home. The mood of leisure is also there. As for the pleasant scenery, Zhang Haidi kept describing the scenery he thought of, leaning on her husband's back, a tree, a willow tree, the willow leaves are green, a lake, a lake. It's blue, a telegraph pole, a strong wind, a heavy rain... The scenery is vivid in Zhang Haidi's description. For 20 years, the couple has been like this, holding each other's back, talking together, and supporting each other for more than 10 years. He has never gone out to get a haircut, and all his hairstyles were done by Zhang Haidi himself. In the past 20 years, Zhang Haidi has lived in poetry and his own simple world. Wang Zuoliang is the one who reads poetry. When it comes to her husband, Haidi said. : “He was a very quiet man. Looking back on my 20 years of married life, I feel very pleased. We have both achieved results in our respective jobs. We face life calmly and never pay attention to various speculations. I think time will prove everything, and I am also very strange. After being married for so many years, when he went to Canada to study At that time, even though we were separated by oceans, our letters would still be the same as they were back then. It was really interesting. I never believe that a marriage without love can survive. Without constant renewal of love, the flowers of marriage will wither. ”
