4. The initial formulation of "third generation poetry" began in 1982 and came from college students from several universities in Sichuan, including Hu Dong, Zhao Ye and Tang Yaping from Sichuan University, and Southwest Normal University. Liao Xi et al., Wan Xia and Zhu Zhiyong from Nanchong Normal University proposed it in a poetry debate at Southwest Normal University in Beibei, Chongqing in October 1982. At that time, students at Southwest Normal University borrowed Chairman Mao’s famous formulation—imperial capitalism placed its dream of restoration on our third and fourth generations. However, after this concept was proposed, no specific poetry genre or text appeared. It was not until 1983 that the "Chengdu College Students Poetry Federation" was established by Bei Wang (He Jiming), Deng Xiang, and Niu Huang from Chengdu University of Science and Technology, and Zhao Ye, Tang Yaping, Hu Xiaobo and others from Sichuan University, and then edited and published the "No. "Three Generations" poetry anthology, which included Zhao Ye's poem "Random Thoughts", Deng Xiang's "A Man", "Tell a Story!" and other poems had a wide influence, and then became a poetry group that attracted attention after the Mengwu poets. "The Third Generation" is the earliest poetic text of the third generation poets, and it is also a sign that the third generation poets have stood up after the hazy poets.
