On August 11th, the novel "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" won the 11th Mao Dun Literature Award. The author of the book, Sun Ganlu, stated in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency on the 15th that the book "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" has been brewing for many years, and is not a temporary "pat on the head" to write, but based on long-term thinking and accumulation. I think writing is a quite lengthy process, gradually growing and emerging, and what we are doing now must be related to the past. As a "red new classic" that illuminates reality and is full of details, the novel "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" entered Shanghai in the 1930s, focusing on a top-secret task codenamed "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", using literary methods to imagine and present hidden and great historical events, Describing the spiritual map of a generation of idealists who fought with blood and pursued brightness. In the open, comfortable, and dense textual space, the novel "Thousand Li Jiang Shan Tu" presents a spatial poetics similar to the famous painting "Thousand Li Jiang Shan Tu", just like the Northern Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng cleverly interspersed static scenes such as fishing villages, wild markets, water pavilions, thatched cottages, and water mill long bridges with dynamic scenes such as fishing, sailing, playing, and markets, achieving a perfect combination of motion and stillness, brightness and darkness, and vastness and close-up. The novel deeply infects and shakes readers with its steep storyline, precise social and human emotions, detailed portrayal of characters' personalities, and in-depth exploration of human secrets. The book title "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" has multiple meanings. It is the code name for an action plan and also symbolizes "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". It is the name of an ancient painting, and the book also describes some situations in the social life of Shanghai at that time, such as calligraphy and painting merchants. "Sun Ganlu said, especially in such a story about underground struggles, people's words, behaviors, and psychology are not isolated, but have multiple meanings. At present, the novel "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" has reached copyright export agreements with 11 publishing houses, including the Saudi Arabian Literature Publishing Center, the UK Unicorn Publishing Group, and the Russian Academic Research Press, and has reached copyright export agreements for more than 10 languages, including English, German, French, and Vietnamese. At the same time as paper books are selling well, this work "Drawing Rivers and Mountains from a Thousand Miles" is gradually incubating into various literary and artistic works. On the same day, Sun Ganlu walked into Shanghai TV Station and personally listened to a segment of the radio drama "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". Radio dramas are known as "plays in the ear", and playwright Cao Yu once praised excellent radio dramas as "able to make people hear the spiritual world of characters, and integrate lines, music, and sound effects, making people captivated and memorable". In Sun Ganlu's youth (1960s and 1970s), in addition to reading, there was also an important source of knowledge and information, which was broadcasting on the radio. In a sense, my writing is a product of the broadcasting era, and the novel series broadcast on the radio station is my novel enlightenment class. That's why I am so eager to hear this novel ("A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains") on the radio. In Sun Ganlu's view, the expressive space of sound is great, which can stimulate the audience's imagination of the characters in the play. He is very excited about the entire presentation of the radio drama. The movie, TV series, drama, and Pingtan of 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains' are all in production
