1Since March, 979, Dandelion has serialized the poems of Gu Cheng's childhood with the title "Unknown Little Flower". "1Midnight in April, 979", Gu Cheng wrote the eternal quatrain "Generation" of China's modern poetry: the night gave me black eyes/but I used it to look for light. In the winter of the same year, Gu Cheng joined the "Today" Poetry School and became a representative of early obscure poetry. At this time, Gu Cheng's poems became famous.
In July that year, Gu Cheng met the most important person in his life-Xie Ye.
Gu Cheng fell madly in love with this Shanghai girl. According to an article written by my friend Yi Wei in Today's Magazine, Gu Cheng chose Wuyi Road near Xie Ye's home for Xie Ye and bought a very simple house here. "Now that I think about it, this move of Gu Cheng is of course a move of love, but it is not the beginning of a vicissitudes of life."
In the process of falling in love with Xie Ye and pursuing marriage, Gu Cheng has been questioned that he has no fixed job, which has brought great pressure to Gu Cheng. Another question about Gu Cheng is that some people think that Gu Cheng is mentally abnormal and needs to go to the hospital for examination. Gu Cheng is very unhappy. He firmly believes that he is not ill. He thinks he lives in two worlds with those people. However, he said calmly that in order to combine with Xie Ye, he would like to go to the hospital for examination.
Gu Cheng bravely went to a mental hospital. Evie remembers that it was an afternoon, accompanied by Xie Ye from the ancient city. "Attend to city and Xie Ye said when they met me that today in the hospital, Attend to city told the doctor about Freud's psychoanalytic theory, which made the doctor dizzy. The doctor said that your thinking and expression are normal. The doctor even said that Gu Cheng knew Freud better than himself. After detailed diagnosis and examination by the doctor, the doctor concluded that Gu Cheng was not mentally ill. I deeply feel that it is not easy to attend to the city, and I also feel the patience of his inner backlog. Will this backlog of patience erupt? This makes me very uneasy. "
Gu Cheng finally married Xie Ye, and that year was 1983. 1987 Mr. and Mrs. Gu Cheng left Beijing and were invited to attend the "International Poetry Festival" in Mü nster, Germany, and then began to travel around Western Europe and Northern Europe. In March this year, Xie Ye gave birth to his son Auricularia auricula in Auckland, New Zealand. In June this year, he was granted permanent residency in New Zealand to meet the requirements of skilled immigrants.
At the same time, Gu Cheng bought a house on Wasiki Island in Oakland Bay and began to live in seclusion. 1989 resigned from the University of Auckland to concentrate on raising chickens, growing vegetables, painting and writing on the island. The New Zealand government officially signed the permanent residence document of the Gucheng couple. Talking about this experience, Shu Ting recalled, "Although they have been abroad for many years, buying land and houses, settling down and having children, they still give me the feeling of not having enough to eat."
She also wants to go to the United States and meet Xie Ye in 1992. "After dinner that day, we stopped by to go shopping and walked into a small shop. Xie Ye picked a small toy on the shelf and looked at it for a long time. He showed it to me with a smile. That's a little frog. Squeeze it and make a loud noise. Made in China is printed on the bottom and the price is 1.99 USD. Xie Ye said: Buy something from our country for your son. I found out that "Gu Cheng" had been standing at the door with a calm face and didn't come in. When Xie Ye paid, "Gu Cheng" slipped and sat on the ground, which surprised me. I thought he was ill, so I went to help him. Xie Ye snapped at him: Ignore him and let him die. I was even more scared and looked back at Xie Ye. There are tears in her eyes: he is like this when I spend money! "
1992, the writer Wang Anyi met Gu Cheng and Xie Ye in Berlin and was fascinated by their stories. "At that time, I was still young and felt the burden of reality, but I just didn't have the courage and ability to come out. It is also because-this is the decisive factor that divides us and them into two species, which is a normal desire. Therefore, no matter how attractive their stories are, we just watch the fire from the other side. " She wrote in the article "Gu Cheng on an Isolated Island", "During this period, Gu Cheng always walked around the forest and tasted all kinds of plants. In order to see what can be used as food to satisfy hunger, all kinds of grass juice dyed his lips black. Someone pointed to a tree and told Gu Cheng that it was edible. So Gu Cheng began to taste from the root of this tree. " 19931010.8, the bad news came, and the whole world was shocked. "Such a place to stay, if it didn't end in such a tragic accident, would be a beautiful fairy tale, especially suitable for a black-eyed Peter Pan wearing a shepherd's hat. But the fairy tale died in the middle, which was heartbreaking, and at the same time, I felt that it was doomed to be a crisis from the beginning.
Twenty years later, there are still some scattered legends. One person who has heard of it says that Riptide Island is actually not as wild and far away as imagined. On the contrary, it is still very lively, and it is a tourist attraction. The second said that the wooden houses in the ancient city of Xie Ye were uninhabited, and the surrounding Woods were getting denser and denser. It sounds like the log cabin has turned into a bug, which has been swallowed by plants. Didn't Gu Cheng write such a sentence: "What we write is like bugs, finding our way in a pine cone"? Yes, it's a bug that eats pine cones. In this way, the fairy tale has an ending.
