Features: This collection, personally compiled and arranged by the author in chronological order, spans over one million words and includes all of the author's significant works, such as Shanghai Memories, The Qingyi, and Women in Lactation. In the past two years, Bi Feiyu has become a favorite among film and television directors. After the television drama The Qingyi gained nationwide popularity, renowned director Yang Yang and actress Song Jia selected the short story Women in Lactation, which won the First Lu Xun Literature Prize, for adaptation. Famous director Ye Daying adapted the short story Wang Zhuang on Earth into a film of the same name, while the highly acclaimed middle-grade novel Corn, which caused a great stir in the literary world, also attracted the attention of several heavyweights in the film and television industry. It seems reasonable to say that Bi Feiyu has a special connection with film and television. However, like most accomplished writers who have achieved significant success in their creative endeavors, Bi Feiyu does not wish for his prominence in film and television to interfere with the evaluation of his overall literary value. The four-volume collection, in a sense, has become a remedy for him to "set things right." In the collection, we can see that as a writer, Bi Feiyu exhibits astonishing versatility in his creative style. Early Bi Feiyu made his debut in the literary world with a certain avant-garde attitude. Having self-studied philosophy, he began interpreting the world with a boundless textual form and an irrepressible metaphysical interest. However, soon, his focus shifted from constructing his spiritual edifice to paying attention to the daily lives of ordinary people and exploring their inner worlds. From Island to Narrative and then to A Good Story and Lin Hong's Holiday, we see a more composed, and increasingly wise Bi Feiyu. From a narrator completely uninterested in stories to a skilled storyteller, Bi Feiyu has completed his transformation. Through Bi Feiyu's Collection, we can see that a good writer always gets closer to the softer parts of the human heart through the continuous evolution of their personal creative style.
