I read about the "news" of the Mahua fore-runner, Chen Xuefeng, passing a way, on my flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, China. Noticing his almost last words, " People need Mahua Wenxue ". To be honest, at that moment, I felt a heroic sense in form. And "what kind of people", need "Mahua Wenxue"? That could be the second question.
I have not asked. Of course. Kind of quiet.
I could still remember, during the last "face to face" meeting, in a conference, last months somewhere in Kampar, Chen Xuefeng gave me a very different impression, really quite different from his former "public image" as noted in the history of Mahua Wenxue. He has appeared more serene, quiet, low profiled and in self-control(of speech). One point particularly noticed, was, he mildly said this after his short comment after a section of discussion, " Now I would first listen to the others... .... . " , which appeared really like a if not different, but slightly "new" "Chen Xuefeng". I was a bit surprised.
And I don't know why, at this moment of winter in the northern part of earth, I could, well, admitted a bit, ridiculously related this "wind" to,
" I do not know,
where the wind comes from,
I only know.... .... . " ....
Why?
I do not know.
Ho Khai Leong said, "Chen Xuefeng is the last realist in the History of Ma3hua2 Wenxue". I jokingly thought, " hm... according to style, am I thus 'the second last realist' in the History of Ma3hua2 Wenxue"?
Am I trying to "cou renao" at this moment? Talking about Chen Xuefeng?
I guess not.
This "heat", I do not join,
and can also not join... ....
