Zheng: I will give you a real me today.
Reporter: There is an old saying in China, three years old and seven years old. What were you like as a child?
Zheng: When I was a child, I had no ambition. My greatest dream is to be a dung digger. At that time, the media publicized a model worker named Shi Chuanxiang, whose occupation was a dung digger. I am a fan of his. In the second grade of primary school, the teacher wrote a propositional composition "What will I do when I grow up?" I wrote that I want to be a dung digger when I grow up. Most students in the class write about becoming a scientist when they grow up. I didn't expect the teacher to recommend my composition to be published in the school magazine. I guess I may be the only student in this city who wants to be a dung digger when he grows up. The teacher was worried that no one would dig dung in Beijing in a few years and dung would flow everywhere, so she quickly signed a contract with me by publishing a composition and leaving photos.
Reporter: Judging from your resume, you seldom go to school.
Zheng: When I was in the fourth grade of primary school, I stopped studying because of the Cultural Revolution. Later, he was sent to suiping county May 7th ultra-leftwing with his parents and went to the ultra-leftwing children's school, but he was fired.
Reporter: Why?
Zheng: The teacher wrote a composition entitled "The early bird catches the worm". I changed the topic and wrote "The early worm is eaten by the bird". The teacher refused to accept and humiliated me, so I detonated the cannon hidden in me. Firecrackers are a kind of firecrackers. I wonder if it is a specialty of suiping county. There are two ropes on both sides of the firecrackers. When you pull the rope with both hands, firecrackers will ring. I think this is the second suicide bombing in human history.
Reporter: Who was it for the first time?
Zheng: Dong Cunrui.
Reporter: So you were fired?
Zheng: Yes.
Reporter: You haven't been to school since?
Zheng: I went to the driving school. Does driving school count as a school?
Reporter: Well, it should count. That is to say, the highest school you attend is driving school?
Zheng: Yes. My highest degree is driver's license.
Reporter: After all, the Chinese characters learned in primary school for four years are limited, and now you have written more than 10 million words. What books have you learned to read?
Zheng: My father has been tutoring me since I was expelled from school. He asked me to recite the manifesto of the producers' party. I learned more words through this book.
Reporter: You were a soldier and became a worker after you retired. How did you come up with writing?
Zheng: My girlfriend's parents let me take the college entrance examination. I know that exams are my weakness. I took the college entrance examination which brought me shame. So my girlfriend abandoned me under the pressure of my parents. I thought I could masturbate instead of getting married, but later I found that I didn't like it very much. I remembered that there was a composition encouraged by my teacher in primary school, so I whimsically exchanged my writing for the promise of the opposite sex to be my wife. The original intention of my writing is actually to work for my genitals.
Reporter: Why did you choose to write fairy tales?
Zheng: I am a coward. I dare not devote myself to changing the world like Liu Hulan, so I write fairy tales to escape from reality.
Reporter: Why did you start the monthly fairy tale king?
Zheng: I am so narrow-minded that I can't tolerate sleeping in the same bed with other writers in a newspaper.
Reporter: It's incredible that you have been writing for "The King of Fairy Tales" for 20 years.
Zheng: This is a sign of laziness. I have been writing a monthly magazine for 20 years, but I don't want to change my way. I'm too lazy to be saved
Reporter: I haven't seen much of your new work since 2002, but you have been writing and accumulated many unpublished works. Why is this?
Zheng: About 200 1, a legal program of a big bowl TV station said that some words in my work were suspected to be inappropriate for children. I was timid, and I was scared to impotence. As I said just now, the main purpose of my publication is that I don't like masturbation, and I prefer husband and wife life. Since I am impotent, I have no incentive to publish any more works.
Reporter: You have no treatment?
Zheng: I think there is a silver lining behind the dark clouds, which can fundamentally prevent words that are not suitable for children from appearing in my works. That part itself is not suitable for children's organs. Anyone who makes a living by writing for children should have the basic quality of impotence. This move is very clever. Since then, the body parts below the nose have never appeared in my works.
Reporter: Why can't hands appear? Why can't the mouth appear?
Zheng: What you said, in a broad sense, are all organs that are not suitable for children and can be used to do bad things.
Reporter: I saw from the media that someone named China openly admitted that he was the first person with AIDS. Are you the first person in China to publicly admit his impotence?
Zheng: I think this is an honor, much more glorious than the title of writer.
Reporter: There is a saying that writers are engineers of the human soul.
Zheng: God is the engineer of human soul. Among human members, writers are the group that urgently needs to rebuild the soul.
Reporter: You don't seem to have much contact with writers, and you never attend writers' congresses.
Zheng: I feel inferior. Because I don't know anything about literature, I often don't understand what they say when I am with them, and I am worried about making a fool of myself.
Reporter: What do you think of the literature prize?
Zheng: The literature prize is like hemorrhoids. Every anus will get it sooner or later. For the record, this statement is not my original.
Reporter: Have you ever won a literary prize?
Zheng: I have hemorrhoids, and they are not light. It will bleed in severe cases. Wear sanitary napkins with wings.
Reporter: Can you define a professional writer?
Zheng: Anyone who is paid is not a professional writer in the true sense. Real professional writers live entirely on their contributions.
Reporter: Is there a salary?
Zheng: I do, but no one pays me now.
Reporter: Why? Resigned?
Zheng: To put it mildly, it's resignation, but actually it's dismissal. Be fired.
Reporter: What job did you get fired from?
Zheng: a children's literature journal of a city Federation of Literary and Art Circles.
Reporter: I'm a little confused about this. If you are a dung digger, I understand that you were dismissed by the leader. I don't think you can dig shit in your life. And you should have a certain ability to edit publications. The publications you founded by yourself include the monthly fairy tale king and the monthly wolf pictorial. They have gone through a glorious road for nearly 20 years and are still going on. They have created remarkable economic and social benefits and were named as double-effect periodicals by the General Administration of Press and Publication. One of the monthly magazines, The King of Fairy Tales, is completely supported by your own works. As far as I know, at present, newspapers and magazines all implement the appointment system. Should leaders hire people with outstanding abilities?
Zheng: In the late 1990s, the leaders of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles told me why Zheng's elbow kept turning outwards. The fairy tale king and the wolf pictorial were given to others, and the fat water flowed into outsiders. Can you make some contribution to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles? I said that after I had the idea of writing my own diary on 1984, I first told the person in charge of our magazine, and the person in charge politely declined. The boss said, how can our magazine only publish your works? Other writers will have opinions. Besides, even if I agree, how many issues can you stick to?
Reporter: If I were your leader, I wouldn't be so polite. I think you should see a psychiatrist.
Zheng: The leader of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles said, can you contribute now? As a soldier, I know that military orders are like mountains, so I made a plan to double the circulation of magazines and report to the leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles how much money to give each year.
Reporter: What was your position in that magazine at that time?
Zheng: editor-in-chief
Reporter: What is the relationship with the editorial director?
Zheng: Good relationship. He has employed me for many years. Live in peace. But when I tried to pinch off the fat water and throw it away, he suddenly announced that I was fired.
Reporter: I can understand him.
Zheng: I can understand him too. Now I still think he is a good man. If I were him, I would also fire me. At that time, the leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles were very embarrassed, and they didn't expect such a situation. Just come forward to mediate. The editorial director put forward the condition that Zheng could continue to be employed, but he could not come to work. I said, if you can't come to work, why are you still employed? The two sides could not reach an agreement. Later, the leader gave me an idea that I could retire early after working for 30 years. You have worked for almost 30 years, so you can retire early. I said I was only in my forties, and I would live longer after retirement. Let me resign now. So, when I was one month short of 30 years' service, I went through the resignation formalities, took the file to the street, and got the long-awaited "Beijing Urban Unemployed Job Search Certificate".
Reporter: How long have you been longing for it? Zheng: Many years ago, Wang Shuo showed me a certificate. He said it was the best proof. When I saw it, it was a job application card for the unemployed in Beijing, and I was jealous at that time. I think this is a necessary certificate for a writer.
Reporter: This means that you have worked for 30 years for nothing, and you can't get a penny pension.
Zheng: I was not good at math since I was a child, and I often miscalculated my accounts.
Reporter: Now some people are worried about the phenomenon of young writers. You had contact with Han Han. What do you think of young writers?
Zheng: If children don't learn well, adults won't do it. If children learn well, adults won't do it. Just turn them into vegetarians. Every time I see a child being described as a flower of the motherland, I feel that a human flower is just a plant.
Reporter: What should adults do for their children?
Zheng: Praise, encourage and praise to death.
Reporter: There is an old saying that advice is hard to hear.
Zheng: Advice when most needed is least heeded. Encouragement is the best advice. Encouragement can turn idiots into geniuses.
Reporter: why don't you let your son go to school, but compile your own teaching materials and coach him?
Zheng: Cheap. At that time, schools charged fees.
Reporter: Can you tell us something about the family textbook you wrote for your son?
Zheng: Law article Pipiru and 4 19 crime, innovation and query article Down-to-earth and humble Beta, philosophy article Dialogue between Lu Xixi and Socrates, sexual knowledge article Where are you from, my friend, morality article Why Rocco is not ruthless, and safety self-help article I will send you 100 life again.
Reporter: So many, how many words are there?
Zheng: About 4 million words.
Reporter: Not published?
Zheng: I am petty. Worried about taking it out, other children watched it and competed with my son. From the perspective of diploma, sons are a vulnerable group.
Reporter: Never take it out?
Zheng: Now that my son is older, taking out textbooks is no longer a threat to my son. Serialized from the July 2004 issue of The King of Fairy Tales.
Reporter: I heard that you have read the textbook written by the education department twice before you start writing. Are the textbooks you wrote compared with those written by the education department?
Zheng: Compared with the textbooks compiled by the education department, what I wrote was rubbish.
Reporter: Then why do you want your daughter to go to school?
Zheng: I heard that the school has implemented a one-fee system. In addition, according to my observation, my daughter is an addict of exam-oriented education, and most of the games she plays now are about schools and exams. I will always support and encourage her to get a doctorate. My father is so incompetent that he wants to take advantage of his daughter. I plan to write a diary-style literary work according to her school experience every day from primary school to doctoral graduation. That is to say, I will write a comprehensive record and analysis of the educational advantages of China schools from September 2005 to 2025.
Reporter: Why are you dissatisfied with piracy and infringement?
Zheng: I am stingy by nature.
Reporter: You seem to be cynical about academic qualifications.
Zheng: The fox said the grapes were sour when he couldn't eat them.
Reporter: What kind of road do you like to take?
Zheng: A wooden bridge.
Reporter: I heard that you write every morning?
Zheng: Not writing, but taking drugs and addiction. Writing is not a survival need for me now, but a physiological need. I'm not interested in literature itself. Writing is the best way to escape from reality that I have found so far. Every morning, I make up a mirage with words to make myself hallucinate.
Reporter: When did your son Zheng Yaqi start surfing the Internet?
Zheng: 1994.
Reporter: What about you?
Zheng: In 2004. 10 years, my son encouraged me to surf the internet many times, but I refused. I reluctantly agreed this year and I like it very much at present. I like surfing the internet in a high-speed car, and I feel like surfing.
Reporter: Do you think your education for your son is successful?
Zheng: It didn't work.
Reporter: Why?
Zheng: There are great differences between us. We often argue until we are red in the face.
Reporter: What's the difference? Zheng: My son likes sound, light and electricity. He thinks it's time to read the picture. Many years ago, he mobilized me to publish comic books and periodicals. I think written works can stimulate readers' imagination, while comics are unobstructed and have no room for imagination. I think that the era of reading pictures is actually the era of gamblers, betting on the future with their own imagination. He doesn't agree with me. He wanted to adapt my work into comics, comics, film and television dramas and even computer games, but I refused. I will stick to my original words and stick to my own opinions. But now he's getting the upper hand. In June 2005, a comic book named "Cpaing" will be published. In March 2000, he created my official website Zheng's website for me. At that time, I strongly opposed it and had great differences.
Reporter: What do you think of the relationship between two generations or the generation gap?
Zheng: It is the patent of the previous generation to worry about future generations. Shine on you is superior to Blue, which is the patent of the next generation. Everyone will go through these two stages in his life. After being born by parents, shine on you surpassed the previous generation. After becoming a parent, he is worried about the next generation. Even, no one owes anyone. From this perspective, there is no generation gap at all. How can a person have a generation gap with himself? Besides, without children, where can parents come from?
Reporter: Are you saying the opposite? There should be no parents and no children.
Zheng: Can people without children be called parents? Take me for example, I was not a father before my son was born. My fatherhood was born at the same time as my son. Technically, my son and I are the same age. It was my son who made me a father. As a father, don't forget to dig wells, and you can't kick down the ladder. Whenever I disagree with Zheng Yaqi, I tell myself this.
Reporter: How old is Zheng Yaqi now? Is there a job?
Zheng: 2 1 year. Director of technical department of a newspaper in Beijing.
Reporter: You seem to be interested in youth literature recently, and you have published a book called Rabbit Run and Jump.
Zheng: My daughter is five years old. Since she was 1 year old, I have told her stories before going to bed every night. Since the formation of the system, she has been telling stories for an hour every day without telling stories or sleeping. First, I read my story according to the script, and when I was 3 years old, I finished reading it again. My daughter didn't listen to the story she had heard, so I had to make it up on the spot. I asked her to make a topic, and I made it up according to the topic. After two months like this, one day I suddenly realized that I should record, so I started recording at the same time, using a tape every day. There are nearly 700 tapes at present. Rabbit Run and Jump is the first story I recorded after I made up a story for my daughter. It is the first five of 700 tapes. So far, there are 130 fairy tales such as rabbits running and jumping on the tape.
Reporter: I heard that you are a dutiful son.
Zheng: I showed it to my children with ulterior motives.
Reporter: I saw a picture of you and a German shepherd in the study. Why do you like dogs?
Zheng: Many dogs are actually people. Many people are actually dogs. People and dogs have a relationship between you and me. People and dogs must have the same ancestor.
Reporter: Why don't you drink and smoke?
Zheng: Alcohol and tobacco affect sexual desire. It doesn't matter now. I still can't smoke, so I'll have a drink.
Reporter: You have never been a prostitute. Why?
Zheng: whoring readers, I can't do it
Reporter: Why don't you like traveling?
Zheng: Save money.
Reporter: Now you don't have to spend your own money on travel, do you? Which city's Xinhua Bookstore doesn't want you to sign books?
Zheng: I didn't say to save my own money.
Reporter: Money and fame are both things outside the body.
Zheng: What's in your body?
Reporter: Well, it seems that there really isn't.
Zheng: Since there is nothing inside, how can there be anything outside? Anyone who likes to talk about things outside his body is the one who cares most, and those who don't care don't need to find reasons to do things.
Reporter: Some people say that without Pipiru, Lu Xixi and Shuke and Beita, children in China would feel embarrassed or humiliated. They can only make friends with foreign fairy tales such as Astro Boy and Harry Potter.
Zheng: How can it be humiliating to make friends with foreigners? Marx is a foreigner. I don't think I've ever seen people in China worry that Marx is a foreigner. Why should they worry that Astro Boy is a foreigner? In addition, with the globalization of economy, culture should also be globalized. Who is good, who to make friends with. Confucius foresaw thousands of years ago that his descendants would make friends with foreign fairy tales. He stood on the mountain, shouting in the wind, and it was a pleasure to have friends from afar.
Reporter: Speaking of foreigners, if you were the president of the United States, how did you deal with bin Laden?
Zheng: Give him the Nobel Peace Prize. He'll be embarrassed to launch another terrorist attack.
Reporter: What's your favorite book?
Zheng: A dictionary of modern Chinese.
Reporter: What kind of words do you like to read now?
Zheng: I like watching small advertisements. The whole world is up there. Open the door every day and look forward to seeing if there are any small advertisements. If not, it will be very disappointing. When I was driving on the road, I met a man who put a small advertisement in the mirror. If someone ignores me, I will drive to him and argue with him why not give it to me. I bound the small advertisement into a book and watched it again and again. These two days, I received a small advertisement from a regular hospital nearby, which is an advertisement for treating ADHD. It lists nine prominent features of ADHD, and says that as long as you have three of them, it belongs to ADHD that must be treated: 1, inattention, easy to be distracted; 2, there are too many activities, so it is good to play tricks on people; 3. Play while doing homework; 4. Things can't last long, and they often move from one thing to another; 5. Normal intelligence, but poor test scores; 6, talk a lot, often interrupt others or rush to answer; 7. Others talk to him and like to listen; 8. Impulse, willfulness, impatience and irritability; 9, do not listen to advice, not bound. Is this a disease? In my opinion, as long as you meet three of them, you are a genius. As parents, they obviously gave birth to a genius, but they want to kill him with drugs. This is one of the reasons why there is no authentic Nobel Prize winner in China. Such a small advertisement is no better than a world masterpiece?
Reporter: What is your biggest wish now?
Zheng: Having a baby at the age of 60.
Reporter: Aren't you already impotent? How was I born?
Zheng: Are you still 60 years old? In addition, I took preventive measures in 2000 and stored related substances. I hope it won't expire then.
Reporter: Who else do you have contact with besides your family?
Zheng: I have a group of friends. I play with them on the official website every day. Happy.
Reporter: The King of Fairy Tales is about to celebrate its 20th birthday. I see your website is collecting ways to celebrate. What do you think is the most meaningful way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the King of Fairy Tales, which can best prove that this moment is the peak and impress your millions of readers?
Zheng: I committed suicide.
Reporter: Will you choose this way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the King of Fairy Tales?
Zheng: I have submitted an application to my daughter, and she hasn't issued me a visa yet. Before she 18 years old, I was under her jurisdiction.
Reporter: If you were asked to write an epitaph for yourself, what would you do?
Zheng: An illiterate person with the same figure is buried here.
Reporter: Last question, do you have any advantages?
Zheng: Nothing.
Reporter: No way?
Zheng: Nothing. Where did the dust come from?
