Besides, Zheng also created many well-known characters, such as Cpaing, Lu Xixi, the Wolf and so on, which had a far-reaching impact on the post-80s and post-90s childhood.
At that time, Zheng was loved by many children, and the children actively wrote to Zheng to express their love. Zheng specially bought the 10 suite in Beijing to collect these letters. Now that 30 years have passed, how is he doing?
A gifted child, a primary school dropout.
1June 5, 955, Zheng was born into a military family. His father is always strict with himself in the army, but before Zheng, he is a loving father. His father never strictly educated him and never imprisoned his nature. This kind of education promoted the all-round development of Zheng's imagination, creativity and appeal.
In the fourth grade of primary school, Zheng was expelled from school for writing an essay entitled "The early worm was eaten by the bird". The idea of this composition is beyond the understanding of teachers. Teachers think that Zheng is a little deviant, and such children can't really educate and communicate. Zheng, who was driven home, was not scolded by his father, but comforted by his father and said, "Nothing, I will teach you."
For example, after Edison was expelled from school when he was a child, his mother hid a letter written by the school teacher "Your child is mentally deficient", but told Edison: Because you are a genius, the school is too small and the teachers can't teach you well, so your mother will teach you in the future. Zheng's father, like Edison's mother, believed in his children when they were questioned or even denied, saw their extraordinary abilities, protected their nature and talents, and finally made them the best themselves.
The unexpected manuscript fee is inspiring.
After Zheng was expelled, he never went to school again and has been taught by his father himself. 15 years old, Zheng joined the army and worked as an aircrew for 5 years. After leaving the army, Zheng entered a factory and became a pump worker. Although his job is easy, it is also boring.
By chance, he saw a magazine with contribution information, so he threw a poem he wrote in his spare time into the magazine. One day, Zheng suddenly received an envelope containing 10 yuan. It turns out that his own poems have been published. Zheng was deeply encouraged, and his creative enthusiasm was also high.
In the factory, Zheng met the girl he liked, but the girl's mother thought his education was too low and refused to continue their relationship. Zheng, who was struggling to find a way out, saw hope at the moment he received the manuscript fee, and since then he has devoted himself to literary creation.
According to his childhood experience, Zheng created an eccentric and adventurous boy. He is cpaing. Zheng serialized the story of Cpaing and his sister Lu Xixi in a magazine, which was loved by readers, and the sales of this magazine increased dramatically. However, the manuscript fee given by magazines is very low. Under various considerations, Zheng founded his own magazine-The King of Fairy Tales. This magazine only publishes Zheng's own works. At that time, this move was questioned by many people. No one believes that Zheng can make this monthly magazine so successful on his own.
Be loved and write from all directions.
In the voice of doubt, the king of fairy tales is thriving and has won the love of a large number of readers. No one expected that this monthly magazine could be published continuously for 30 years. Even today, the king of fairy tales is still an irreplaceable existence in many people's childhood. With this monthly magazine, Zheng gained a certain reputation in the world. In 2008, Zheng became the first China native to win the gold medal in international copyright innovation.
It is precisely because Zheng has a rich imagination since he was a child that he can create a large number of fantastic, real, vivid and interesting images like Pipiru and Shukebeta. His works are deeply rooted in people's hearts and loved by readers. The reader's love has become the driving force for Zheng's progress, enabling him to calm down and create more popular works.
Zheng receives letters from readers of all kinds and regions every day, most of which are thousands. Beijing Post Office also set up a special mailbox for Zheng. For every letter from readers, Zheng reads it carefully, and many of them reply sincerely. Later, more and more letters had nowhere to store, so Zheng bought ten houses to store these precious letters.
In the current Internet age, there are few letters from readers, and people express their feelings through those cold electronic products every day. Wechat, Weibo, email and so on have become the main tools for people to communicate, and there are fewer and fewer letters. Now, every letter from those ten schools is precious, and every letter carries the reader's full love for Zheng.
Controversy, monthly magazine closed.
Zheng described the physical changes of Cpaing during adolescence in 200 1. Because of the sensitive topic of adolescence, he was criticized by many media and parents of his children for having "unsuitable for children" in his fairy tales. At that time, Zheng was pushed to the forefront and stopped publishing his new book, The King of Fairy Tales.
In the past two years, the controversy about Zheng's fairy tales has intensified. Many parents think that Zheng's book "ruined their childhood" and they won't buy such books for their children.
Although it is controversial, it can't hinder Zheng's success. In 2009, he became the richest man in the fourth rich list of Chinese writers. The seventh summit in 20 17. Climbed to the top again in 20 17.
Now, Zheng is 65 years old, but his fairy tale heart has never grown old, and his fairy tales are indelible classics.
Zheng's works have experienced peaks and controversial valleys. It is precisely the distinctive features of his works that cause controversy. Zheng's fairy tales integrate the beauty, ugliness, truth, falsehood, light and darkness of the world. Shadows are hidden in the light, but the brightest sunshine is revealed from the shadows, allowing naive children to see the all-round world. In fact, such fairy tales are more profound, thought-provoking and worth learning.
