近年来,中华文化“走出去”的影响力不断扩大,在全球文化多元化发展日益兴盛的背景下,中国文化译研网(CCTSS)联合中国作家协会《小说选刊》杂志社,启动“新世纪中国当代作家、作品海外传播数据库”项目,将100位中国当代优秀作家的简介、代表作品以及展示作家风采的短视频翻译为10种语言,集结成1000张中国作家名片向全球推介。千张“作家名片”将鲜明地向世界宣告:我是中国作家,我在进行中国创作。
此种形式和规模是中国故事走向世界的一大创新,会让世界更加全面、客观、公正地了解中国优秀作家作品,同时也是打通中国文化走向世界的“最后一公里”。
欧阳黔森,男,1965年10月生于贵州铜仁市。一级作家。现任贵州省文联主席、中国作家协会全委会委员。著有长篇小说《雄关漫道》《非爱时间》《绝地逢生》《奢香夫人》,中短篇小说集、散文集《味道》《白多黑少》《莽昆仑》《水的眼泪》《欧阳黔森短篇小说选》《枕梦山河》等十二余部。任编剧、总制片人的有电视连续剧《雄关漫道》《绝地逢生》《奢香夫人》《二十四道拐》;电影《云下的日子》《幸存日》等十五部。曾十八次获得中国电影、电视剧、文学类奖项,以及贵州文艺奖一等奖等省部级奖五十余次。欧阳黔森早年曾当过八年地质队员,每天拿着地质锤和放大镜奔走一百多里路,不仅翻山越岭,还要承受风吹雨淋日晒,奔走间隙一抹胡子,手心里留下的就是一把盐。
长期的野外生活让欧阳黔森对贵州的秀美山水和风土人情有着特殊的感情。著名评论家孟繁华曾说:“欧阳黔森对贵州古老风情风物的描摹,继承的是一个伟大的传统,(他的作品)是他热爱贵州的家乡情结的文学呈现。” 他的小说创作不仅传承了蹇先艾、何士光等中国现当代贵州作家的新文学现实主义传统,而且复活了志怪、志人、博物、搜神、传奇、方志、笔记等中国古代文学传统资源,把专业的现代地质学知识融入到小说叙事中,用诗意的笔触展示贵州的地理风物,形成了独特的现代知识性叙事模式。
欧阳黔森的小说和剧本《奢香夫人》,写的是“奢香夫人”这位古代贵州少数民族女政治家对家乡的热爱和维护民族团结的坚定信念,浓缩了贵州少数民族群众世代传承的家国情怀。在他笔下,那些在恶劣环境中坚韧不拔的农民,为了改变自己的生存状态,凭着毅力和乐观精神创造出美好生活。获得第二届蒲松龄短篇小说奖的小说《敲狗》,被认为“由狗性引申出来的是对人性的思考、对提升人的精神品质的呼唤。小说不仅在结构上有中国古典小说的神韵,在道义和人性的刻写上也见出传统文化的底蕴。小说通过写狗对主人的依恋,厨子对情感的冷漠及徒弟的被感动折射出人性的光芒,把人性解剖这个文学的宏大主题用‘敲狗’这个断面展现得曲尽其妙,称得上是短篇小说的典范文本” 。
2018年第3期《人民文学》杂志发表了欧阳黔森的纪实文学新作《报得三春晖》。作品记述在脱贫攻坚的最后决胜阶段,生活在毕节这片热土的老百姓们所经历的艰苦奋斗、努力生存的不平凡岁月。

Ouyang Qiansen
Ouyang Qiansen, a first-rate writer, was born in October 1965 in Tongren City, Guizhou Province. He is currently chairman of the Guizhou Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles and a member of the National Committee of the China Writers Association. He has written the novels, Xiongguan Mandao, Non-Love Time, A Desperate Place Meets Life, The Lady of Extravagance, 12 collections of short stories and essays including Taste, Lots of White and Little Black, Mang Kunlun, Water Tears, Ouyang Qiansen’s Short Story Selection, and Pillow Dream Mountain River. He screenwrote and took on the role of executive producer for fifteen TV serials including Xiongguan Mandao, A Desperate Place Meets Life, The Lady of Extravagance, The Twenty-four Turns in the Road, 15 movies including Days Under the Clouds and The Day of Survival. He has won 18 Chinese film, TV and literature awards, as well as more than 50 provincial and ministerial awards including the First Prize of the Guizhou Literary Award. Ouyang Qiansen was a geological prospector and tester for eight years in his early years. He walked more than a hundred miles every day with a geological hammer and a magnifying glass, climbing over the mountains come wind, rain or shine. It was hard work that left him with little to no free time.
Long periods of living outdoors has given Ouyang Qiansen special feelings towards Guizhou’s beautiful scenery and customs. The famous critic Meng Fanhua once said: “Ouyang Qiansen’s tracing of ancient customs and styles in Guizhou inherits a great tradition. (His works) are a literary representation of his love for Guizhou’s hometown complex.” His novel creations not only inherited the Neo-literary realism traditions of contemporary Chinese Guizhou writers such as Jian Xian’ai and He Shiguang, but also revitalized traditional Chinese literary resources such as tales of mystery, ambition, natural sciences, searching for gods, legends, local records, and notes. The professional knowledge of modern geology is integrated into the narrative of the novel, and the geographical features of Guizhou are displayed with poetic brushstrokes, forming a unique modern narrative mode of knowledge.
Ouyang Qiansen’s novel and screenplay The Lady of Extravagance is about “The Lady of Extravagance”, an ancient Guizhou ethnic minority politician who is firm in her belief of a love for her hometown and the maintaining of national unity. The feelings towards country and family of ethnic minorities in Guizhou, passed down through the generations, is condensed. In his writing, those gritty and perseverant farmers create a beautiful life in a harsh environment with perseverance and optimism in order to change their living conditions.
The novel Knocking the Dog, which won the second Pu Songling Short Story Award, was considered to be “thinking about human nature from an extension of canine nature and a call for the promotion of people’s spiritual qualities. The novel not only has flavors of classical Chinese novels in its structure, it also sees the heritage of traditional culture in the writing of morality and human nature. The novel reflects the attachment of a dog to its owner, the indifference of a chef to emotions, and the affectedness of an apprentice to reflect the light of humanity, using “knocking the dog” to skillfully and subtly display the grand literary theme of humanistic anatomy. It is regarded as a model text for short stories.”
In 2018, the 3rd issue of People’s Literature magazine published Ouyang Qiansen’s new work on documentary literature, Baode Sanchunhui. The work is described in the final stage of the poverty-relief campaign, the hardships that people living in the hot land of Bijie experienced, and the hard times they survived through.
