Stars
Fei Ming
The stars in the sky are said to be eternal spring flowers.
The shadows of begonia flowers on the east wall,
the clusters are said to be the eternal autumn moon.
Wake up in the morning is like a dream in winter night.
The stars at midnight last night,
are as clean as a bright net,
sparse but not missing,
so are the spring flowers and the autumn moon. ,
Zifeiyu Anzhiyu.
Feng Wenping integrated his beloved Lao Zhuang into his poems, and his thoughts flowed everywhere in his works. Those so-called philosophical poems are simply not on the same level as him.

He was sickly as a child and received a traditional private school education in his childhood. He entered Huangmei Bajiaoting Junior Normal School at the age of 13. In 1917, he was admitted to the National Hubei No. 1 Normal School. He was exposed to new literature and was fascinated by new poetry. He determined that "I want to devote my life to literature." above". After graduation, he stayed in Wuchang to teach in a primary school, during which time he began to associate with Zhou Zuoren. In 1922, he was admitted to the preparatory English class of Peking University and began to publish poems and novels. While studying at Peking University, he had extensive contact with new literary figures, participated in the "Asakusa Society" and contributed to "Yu Si".

The following year, he and Feng Zhi and others founded the literary weekly "Camel Grass" and presided over the editorial affairs, publishing 26 issues.

[Edit this paragraph] Literary style
Fei Ming is considered to be a disciple of Zhou Zuoren, and is regarded as a representative writer of the Beijing School in the history of literature. His representative works include "The Story of the Bamboo Forest", "The Bridge", "The Biography of Mr. Mo Xuyou", "After Mr. Mo Xuyou Takes a Plane", etc. Fei Ming's novels are famous for their "prose culture", and his unique creative style is known as "Fei Ming Style", which has influenced writers such as Shen Congwen and Wang Zengqi. Although Fei Ming is famous, he has few readers because of its obscurity. In literature, Zhou Zuoren and Yu Pingbo are his two famous confidants. When Zhou Zuoren explained Fe Ming and Yu Pingbo's "astringency", he said: "There are generally two reasons for obscurity, that is, the profundity or confusion of the thought, but it can also be due to the simplicity or strangeness of the style. I think today's What I am talking about belongs to this aspect."
In "Selected Novels of Fei Ming: Preface", Fei Ming commented on his own style: "As for the way of expression, I am clearly influenced by it. Influenced by Chinese poetry, when I write novels, I write them in the same way that people in the Tang Dynasty wrote quatrains. A quatrain has twenty or twenty-eight characters to make a poem. Of course, one of my novels is much longer, and it actually uses the method of writing quatrains. I don't want to waste words. Is there any merit in this? I think it is. The work I put in at that time was really tenacious. It was my earliest work. When I wrote it, I couldn't hold it with a pen, and the signs of difficulty could be seen. When I got to "Taoyuan", I became more familiar with it. When I got to "Lingdang", it really has the characteristics of Tang Dynasty quatrains, even though it is a May Fourth poem. Future novels."
[Edit this paragraph] Feiming's philosophical research
Feiming has done considerable research on Buddhism and is the author of "Alaya Theory of Consciousness", which is devoted to discussion. Consciousness-only theory in Buddhism. However, his philosophical research went unnoticed. Zhou Zuoren said, "Then he talked about the Analects of Confucius, Zhuangzi, and Buddhist scriptures, especially admiring the Nirvana Sutra. However, when he talked about it, I didn't understand metaphysics, so I felt that I couldn't understand it." I sent a philosophy paper to Zhou Zuoren, but failed to get a response, which made him very disappointed. The poet Bian Zhilin said, "When I came back from abroad in 1949, he showed me a manuscript that seemed to be an interpretation of some Buddhist scriptures. He talked about it with great interest, thinking that it was in line with the true meaning of Marxism. I am just a mortal, so I never believed him. Those 'sudden enlightenments'... I have no time or intention to read them, I just find them warm and touching." The tone is slightly sarcastic, which is the words of someone who has no interest in Buddhism. Scholar Zhang Zhongxing also studies Buddhism. He said that Feiming "argues with Mr. Xiong Shili and claims that he is correct and proves that he represents the Buddha. Therefore, to refute him is to slander the Buddha. This seems quite ridiculous to a person like me who has little faith, but Seeing his serious and pious look, I had no choice but to remain silent and smile. " His attitude was similar to Bian Zhilin's. Only Xiong Shili, although his views were completely different from Fei Ming's, was willing to argue fiercely or even fight with him.
[Edit this paragraph] About the origin of the pen name
Fei Ming wrote in his diary on June 10, 1926: "From yesterday, I don't want my name, I will give it a new one." My name is called a waste name. I have really shed a lot of shells in the past four years, especially in the past year, so I will just consider yesterday as a anniversary.
