Since 1980, a new school of poetry has appeared in the poetry circle, which is called the "misty poetry school". A group of young poets, such as Shu Ting, Gu Cheng, Bei Dao and He Jiang. There is no unified organizational form, and no declaration has ever been made, but it has formed a "rising poetry group" with its own independent artistic thoughts and creative achievements.
At first, their poems seemed to inherit the tradition of modernism or postmodernism, but soon they opened up new fields, went further and became a kingdom of their own.

Poetry was sent in the late 1970s and early 1980s, with representatives of Beidao, Shuting, Gucheng, He Jiang and Yang Lian. As a creative group, misty poetry once caused controversy in the literary world at that time.
The spiritual connotation of "misty poetry school" has three levels: one is to expose darkness and social criticism; Second, looking for light in the dark, reflecting the sense of exploration and strong heroism; Third, based on humanitarianism's special concern for "people".
The "misty poetry school" rewrote the traditional model of describing "reality" and illustrating policies in the past, regarded poetry as an important way to explore life, and reached an unprecedented height in philosophical significance. In a sense, the rise of "misty poetry school" is also the rise of the life tree of China literature.
