About the Author · · · · · ·
We are a couple, whether we are called Ding Lin or Linda, we just gave ourselves names when we had to use a name to express something. The man's surname was Ding, and the woman's name has a Lin in it. Usually the woman writes the first draft, so careful people can see the traces of women. The reason why it is not very "showy" is that there is really nothing to "show". If the readers read it and think it makes sense and leave an impression on those stories, we will be satisfied; if you think it does not make sense, you can curse it, and there is nothing wrong with it.
We were middle school classmates, and Mr. Liu Haisheng mentioned in Mr. Zhu Xueqin's article was our teacher at Shanghai Fuxing Middle School.
We both worked in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains in Heilongjiang, doing farm work and herding horses. Later, we returned to Shanghai. The man worked as a street worker and the woman worked as a carpenter in a construction team for a few years. After the Cultural Revolution, we went to university and studied "engineering". After graduation, the woman took the postgraduate entrance examination and studied under Mr. Chen Congzhou. Later, we both worked in the university, but soon we both resigned. That was around 1987 or 1988. After that, we both worked on construction sites. Of course, we had some books and technical foundation, so the work was much easier than that of ordinary laborers, but it was natural for us to live in the shed with the workers. This was until 1991 when we had the chance to go abroad, and the opportunity was still to work.
After going abroad, I worked on the edge of agriculture, warehouses, construction, transportation, etc., that is, you had to do whatever you were supposed to do under your boss. I also took some classes, which were very diverse. I also read a lot of books, which were also very diverse. The term "hawker" is really an accurate term. At local festivals in small towns everywhere, I set up a "stall" to sell small things, such as small things I made myself, handicrafts, etc. It is equivalent to going to a temple fair. It is not easy to make a living this way, so one of us has to maintain a stable job and go to work every day. The advantage of making a living this way is that I have traveled all over the small towns in the south and got used to the black, white, red and yellow country people.
What I fear most is that the editors write "scholars" next to our "names". Do you have to be a scholar to have credit? Can you have common sense if you are not a scholar? We are not scholars anymore. Both of us have calluses on our hands.
Recently, we have been busy building a house by ourselves to improve our living conditions. DIY is very popular here. President Jimmy Carter is from our state, and he likes to do carpentry work in his spare time. We think this is great, what do you think?
