  The Two "Single-Footed Kings" at the Pinnacle of World Literature Nantai Is there a pinnacle of world literature? Many say no, but I say yes . After all, isn’t literature essentially about two concepts:  wen  (form/beauty of writing) and  dao  (philosophical essence/way)? The "pinnacle of literature" lies in the attainment of both "the utmost beauty in  wen " and "the supreme authority in  dao ". As I have stated earlier, the only form that can reach the end of aesthetic pursuit is the "praise-through-comedy" genre—this represents "the utmost beauty in  wen "; while the only culture that can achieve supreme  dao  is one that provides answers to "the three ultimate questions of humanity" and embodies the vision of the "Four Sentences of Hengqu" (a set of Confucian ideals advocating concern for the world, life, and future generations). To achieve "both  wen  and  dao  in perfection" is to stand at...

    The Difference Between Tragedy and Comedy Is Like That Between Humans and Animals   Nantai After talking about comedy for several days, some friends still don’t agree with me. They think comedic novels should hold equal status with tragic novels and shouldn’t be regarded as superior. Today, I’d like to add another explanation.     Who is more superior, humans or animals? If you don’t look at the whole picture, ignore the most crucial aspect, and only focus on a single trait, you’ll find that animals excel over humans in many ways. For instance, birds can fly while humans can’t; a peacock’s natural plumage is more beautiful than a human’s unadorned body; cheetahs run faster than humans; a lion or tiger can kill a human with a single bite; even a small monkey is better at climbing trees than humans. Not to mention an elephant’s strength, a rhinoceros’ horn, or fish that don’t need to surface for air—humans can’t compare in any of these aspects. There ar...

  A comedic hero is the "king of heroes"—the most heroic figure, a hero among heroes. Only the literature that creates comedic heroes can be regarded as truly mature literature. Nantai Whether a country’s literature is mature depends on whether it has shaped "comedic heroes". Heroes stand out among ordinary people and symbolize maturity. For instance, a combat hero is a soldier who has mastered the most sophisticated combat skills. Every profession has its own heroes, and they are invariably the most outstanding individuals in that field. This is a truth understood by all, so no further elaboration is needed. Therefore, literature that portrays heroes can basically be considered mature. However, just as lions are the royal family of animals—and within a pride, there is still a "king of lions"—heroes also fall into different tiers. Which type of hero is the most mature, the "king among kings"? It is presumably none other than the comedic he...

Ode to the "Parent-Child Pen" of Praise-Satire Comedy: One Bow, Three Arrows, Hitting Four Targets Nantai The creation of praise-satire comedy is more difficult than that of humorous comedy. Among the "three brothers of comedy" (satirical comedy, humorous comedy, and praise-satire comedy), it is the hardest to craft and stands at the highest level. To draw an analogy: satirical comedy is like a prince, humorous comedy like a crown prince, and praise-satire comedy like an emperor. Alternatively, we can say, "Comedy is the king of literary arts, and praise-satire comedy is the 'king of kings'." Why does praise-satire comedy hold the most revered status? Hegel stated, "When comedy reaches its mature stage, it also arrives at the endpoint of the scientific study of aesthetics." Among the three brothers of comedy, praise-satire comedy is the only "mature comedy" and the only literary form that can reach the "endpoint of aes...

  [Humorous Comedy, "Yin-Yang Rose Pen", "Kill Two Birds with One Stone", "Mixed Amusement and Embarrassment"] Nantai Humorous comedy is even more challenging to craft than satirical comedy. Satirical comedy often involves twists and turns, but typically only one twist, aiming to "hit the nail on the head" with sharp criticism. In contrast, humorous comedy employs what can be described as the "Yin-Yang Rose Pen"—a technique that achieves "killing two birds with one stone." It often presents a duality of perspectives, as if "a single stroke divides Yin and Yang, laying bare the dual paths of black and white before one’s eyes," evoking a feeling of "neither purely black nor white, yet both black and white; seeming black yet resembling white." This leaves the audience chuckling at the crossroads of these dual paths, marveling at the author’s ingenuity in "killing two birds with one stone." Take,...

  【 Satirical Comedy, "Rose-Thorn Pen", a Smile Hiding a Dagger, Baiting with Sweet Scent 】 Nantai The nobility and difficulty of writing a comedic novel both stem from its higher technical demands compared to tragedy. Therefore, writers aspiring to pen comedic novels, or readers seeking to engage with them, must first understand the mechanics of the "Rose-Thorn Pen" (a metaphor for writing that blends beauty with sharp critique). Comedy never speaks plainly—even satirical comedy, the form with the lowest technical threshold among comedic genres, often relies on devices like "saying the opposite of what one means," "using positive words to convey negativity," "speaking of white but referring to black," "honeyed words hiding a venomous heart," and "a smile concealing a dagger." Without a quick mind to interpret these layers, one can never grasp the true intent. As the saying goes, "A thousand tragedies and a...

 A Tribute to Dramatic Praise Comedy: The Pinnacle of All, the Only Literary Form That Reaches the Heights Nantai Writers aspiring to scale the heights or summit of world literature, and readers seeking truly high-quality literary works, must understand this: comedy is not only the most noble, but also the hardest to write. This is universally acknowledged, so when you encounter a good comedy, you must cherish it.     Why is it so difficult? This is evident from the portrayal of heroic characters. Heroes in serious dramas are praised directly, while heroes in comedies require "dramatic praise" (xizan). Though both involve "praise," comedy includes an additional "dramatic" process compared to serious drama, making it more difficult. Tragedies make people cry, but comedies make people laugh until they cry. While both end in tears, comedy involves an extra "laughing" process, making it harder than tragedy. This is why comedy is the most chall...

  Mature Comedy – The First Major Hurdle on the Path to the Pinnacle of World Literature Nantai If you intend to set your sights on paradise, you must aim directly at God . "Climbing to the pinnacle of world literature" sounds like an effortless phrase, but in reality, the difficulty of doing so is comparable to a woman giving birth – only those who experience it truly know the agony in their womb. Where exactly is the pinnacle of world literature? No one will tell you. In reality, the "pinnacle" recognized by the "Literary World Olympics" held in Norway in 2002 is  Don Quixote  – a "humorous comic novel" with "royal lineage." When an old emperor is still seated on the imperial throne, you must defeat him to claim the throne for yourself. Therefore, to climb to the pinnacle of world literature, one must surpass  Don Quixote . This means we must find a literary form more advanced than humorous comic novels – as Hegel stated: "Wh...

  Testing Whether Comedy Is the Most Popular Through Practice Nantai After digressing for a few days, let’s get back to the topic —“the aesthetic value of literature”. Earlier, I mentioned that “comedy is superior to tragedy”, and made an analogy: “If literature were a beauty, comedy would be a princess; if literature were nobility, comedy would be royalty.” This means comedy is the golden pinnacle of literary and artistic works, and comedic novels are the “kings” among novels. Not only is it the “king”, but comedy is also a  must-have  and the most popular genre across all TV stations. This claim of being a “must-have” and “most popular” is not groundless—it can be verified with a simple test. Suppose a workplace holds three events: first, a leader’s report meeting (analogous to a drama); second, a memorial service for revolutionary martyrs (analogous to a tragedy); and third, an evening gala of comedy skits and crosstalk (a comedy). If attendance to these events is ...

  Which is More Bizarre:  Don Quixote  or  Having No Choice But to Be an Official ? Nantai Having No Choice But to Be an Official  was first published by Guangzhou Huacheng Publishing House in 2002. After the original publishing contract expired, it was reprinted by Motie Publishing Company and remains in circulation to this day. Since its initial release, it has been a bestseller for over 22 years. During this period, sharp-eyed book pirates have reproduced it multiple times; one pirated version even fraudulently listed Wang Yuewen as its author. The protagonist of  Having No Choice But to Be an Official  is named Gao Ju. The book portrays a typical example of someone who "rises to officialdom through mediocrity and muddleheadedness"—a good-for-nothing who embodies "Ah Q’s cowardice, Emperor Adou’s good fortune, Ximen Qing’s cunning, and Zhu Bajie’s laziness, muddling through life with absurd charm." As the saying goes, "He’s incapable of doing anyt...

  Professor Cao Wenxuan from Peking University Uses the Character "Extremely" to Evaluate Have to Be an Official Nantai Professor Cao Wenxuan from Peking University Uses the Character "Extremely" to Evaluate Have to Be an Official] Today, I’d like to enlist the support of a prominent figure to boost Nantai’s reputation. Professor Cao Wenxuan from Peking University is a world-renowned scholar, a doctoral supervisor, and a distinguished literary critic. One year, my novel and his literary commentary were both published in October (a prestigious Chinese literary magazine) — we never met in person, but our names “formed a connection” through this coincidence. Later, when he commented on my “humorous comedy novel” Have to Be an Official (a work I used to challenge the dominant figure in world literature, Don Quixote, back in the day), he employed powerful and weighty phrases like “unprecedented” and “extremely fresh!” He said: “I’ve read far too many lengthy novels...

  Is the benefactor who helps you succeed predestined by heaven? 】【 Is the benefactor who helps you succeed predestined by heaven? 】  Nantai In the world, it's not easy for one person to accomplish things; there must be many benefactors to help. This raises a question: Meeting one or two benefactors might be accidental, but if there are always benefactors to help at every critical moment, could it be that heaven has intentionally arranged it? If not, why would it be so coincidental?   There have been too many benefactors who helped me in my literary career. Looking back now, without their help, I would have been unable to take even a single step forward. I have always thought that when I become famous, I would write about these benefactors who helped me, so that the world would know their virtues. However, I am still an unknown writer, and I always feel a sense of guilt. Today, I will first roughly list their names, to be fulfilled when I become famous in the futu...

  # Grateful to Professor Hu Decai, the Guardian Deity of Literature's " Dragon Gate " Natai Every climber encounters benefactors who lend a helping hand along their journey. In my literary career, there have been more than just one or two such benefactors to whom I owe gratitude. After Professor Wang Chunlin gave me a boost midway, Professor Hu Decai—Dean of the School of Journalism and Cultural Communication at Zhongnan University of Economics and Law in Wuhan—took over and gave me a push at the "Dragon Gate". This push served as the crucial final impetus that helped me reach the pinnacle of world literature.   Mr. Hu Decai holds a multitude of social titles, both domestic and international—so many that I can hardly count them all. Listing them all out would be excessive and might bore some people, so I won’t do that. It’s sufficient to know that he is an accomplished scholar whose reputation extends beyond China’s borders. I had never met Professor Hu b...

  Grateful to Professor Wang Chunlin, the Visionary Who Spotted Me in My Darkest Hour – My "Motivational Refueler" Nantai I have read the story of Hans Christian Andersen, the world-renowned author. When he first entered the literary world, he wrote numerous works, yet they went unnoticed by everyone. Just as he was disheartened, thinking he lacked the talent and was about to give up, a critic discovered him, gave him full recognition, and instantly reignited his confidence. Andersen picked himself up again and eventually became a world-famous literary master. In my own literary career, I have also had several such esteemed mentors. Among them, two stand out the most – even though they are both younger than me, I still willingly call them my "esteemed mentors." The first one can be regarded as the "mid-air refueling aircraft" in my literary journey: Professor Wang Chunlin from Shanxi University, Vice President of the Chinese Novel Society, and also a r...

    My "Four Hao of Shangshan" – Lei Da, Zeng Zhennan, Gao Song, and Chen Xiaoying   Nantai Everyone is familiar with the story of the " Four Hao of Shangshan " (Four Eminent Scholars of Shangshan). When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty intended to depose the crown prince, Empress Lü sought advice from Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang instructed her to invite the Four Hao of Shangshan to assist the crown prince. When Emperor Gaozu saw that these four eminent scholars—whom even he himself had failed to recruit—were now supporting the crown prince, he no longer dared to depose him.     My journey to specializing in comic novels also owes a great deal to four eminent figures in the literary world: Lei Da, Zeng Zhennan, Gao Song, and Chen Xiaoying. The first three are like "immortals who showed me the way" toward comic novels, while the last is the "founding father of comic theory."       ## The First: Lei Da   Lei Da is regarded as the pre...

    [Nantai, Favored by Heaven – See How Solid My Backing Is!] [Nantai, Favored by Heaven – See My Backing!]   Nantai   Why am I so remarkable? Because my backing is rock-solid. Not even writers across the world can find such a strong support system as mine. Today, let’s first introduce the first one: the "China Society for Comic Aesthetics".     To reach the pinnacle of world literature, two conditions are required: first, "literary works attain the ultimate beauty", and second, "ideological connotation reaches the supreme realm". Gaining even one of these two "heaven-reaching pillars" would make one as outstanding as the "Great Sage Equal to Heaven" (a legendary figure in Chinese mythology known for his extraordinary power). Yet Nantai has obtained both – isn’t this a sign that Nantai is "a person chosen by heaven"? It would go against the principles of justice if Nantai does not climb to the pinnacle of world litera...
