Character introduction:
Ma Ruifang，Born in 1942 in Qingzhou City, Shandong Province into a traditional Chinese medicine family。Graduated from the Chinese Department of Shandong University in 1965。Currently a professor at the School of Literature and Journalism of Shandong University、PhD supervisor in ancient literature、Academic leader in ancient literature。From 2005 to 2007, he lectured on "Ma Ruifang Talks about Liaozhai" at CCTV's "Hundreds of Forums"，The "Liao Zhai Fever" is set off across the country。
Ma Ruifang is a professor at Shandong University，A famous scholar who studies Chinese classical literature。She writes novels、Write prose、Engage in academics，They are all good players，Has the reputation of "professor writer"。Teaching "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" through the platform of CCTV's "Hundred Schools Forum"，It made her even more famous，He Yi Zhongtian、Yu Dan、Wang Liqun、Yan Chongnian and others became "star scholars" together。Recent，Another biography of Pu Songling written by her, "Fantasy Life - The Biography of Pu Songling" was published。A reporter from Global People Magazine called her to ask for an exclusive interview，She happened to return to Jinan from Beijing，Meet her once。
Yi Zhongtian said Ma Ruifang was "straight、Shuang、It’s fun”，Interviewed by phone，I can also feel her fun、Humor、Cheerful、Optimistic aura。She compared the fox demon to the "white-bone spirit" in the modern workplace，Calling "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" the most "environmentally friendly" novel... "We must promote and popularize classic works，‘Explaining things in simple terms’ is the necessary way。" She said: "But I want to study it in depth，The key is to read the original work，One word and one sentence、Read steadily。I hope to find out by listening to lectures by so-called ‘academic stars’，That is absolutely impossible。”
My childhood dream was to be a table tennis world champion
Ma Ruifang’s mother is a lady，Well-off family，The dowry is quite generous when you get married，There is a book box filled with books she read as a child，There are classical masterpieces、Tang poetry, Song poetry, etc.。Influenced by mother，bet365 online sports betting liveShe loved reading "Xianshu" since she was a child。While studying in college，Ma Ruifang chose literature，The popular saying at that time was "learn mathematics, physics and chemistry，I’m not afraid of traveling around the world”。Actually，For her，Literature is only the next best option，Her biggest ideal at that time was to become the world champion of table tennis。
When I was in junior high school，She was selected to the county team，Winner of many competitions。But later，The physical education teacher poured cold water on her father: "Look at how short she is，Arms so short，How is it possible to win the championship。Hurry，Go ahead and do what you have to do！”Ma Ruifang’s championship dream is broken。Many years later，Ma Ruifang saw Deng Yaping。“She is shorter than me，The arms are shorter than mine，But he also won a few Grand Slams。I knew it，That coach missed me。”Talking about the past，Hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone。
"Drove two rabbits into the same path"
1965，Ma Ruifang graduated from the Chinese Department of Shandong University，Assigned to work at the Institute of Hematology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences。Soon she wrote an article "Li Zhishan Climbs the Peak of Science"，The abbreviated version of this article was seen by Chairman Mao，Very appreciated。But soon the "Cultural Revolution" began，Li Zhishan was labeled a “fake model worker” by the rebels，Ma Ruifang also became a "black pen holder"。
“Ma Ruifang，You made up false examples，Deceive the great leader Chairman Mao，Sin worthy of death！"The rebels yelled at her。She retorted: "Chairman Mao is wise and great，See everything，Who dares to say that he was deceived，Who is the counterrevolutionary！”The rebels were dumbfounded for a moment，I don’t know how to deal with it，Later, she was sent to the kitchen for labor reform。
After the end of the "Cultural Revolution"，Ma Ruifang was transferred to Shandong University。With a background in literature, she picked up the pen again，Started creating，And famous for his prose。
1978，She began to publish essays and study Pu Songling。“At that time, Shandong University established Pu Songling Research Laboratory，People's Literature Publishing House asked me to use prose style，Write a "Critical Biography of Pu Songling"。”So，Ma Ruifang began to study on the "cold bench"。“I was really diligent then，Made tens of thousands of cards。”With solid academic style，Ma Ruifang spent 4 years sorting out the chronology of Pu Songling，It took another 4 years，Written the first "Critical Biography of Pu Songling" in domestic academia at that time。This book was favored by academic leader Xiao Difei、Praise from Cheng Qianfan and essayist Liu Baiyu，Ma Ruifang once felt that Pu Songling had been "thoroughly studied" by him。
1994，In the magazine "Pu Songling Research"，An article titled "Falsecutions on "Pu Songling's Critical Biography"，Point out errors bet365 online betting appin Ma Ruifang’s work without politeness。After Ma Ruifang saw it，I was annoyed at first，Looking at it，Cold sweat broke out on my head，“Something is really wrong”，She also realized that there is no limit to learning，Recognize mistakes and correct them，Thanks to those who pointed out the error，Modify bit by bit，Published two more biographies of Pu Songling，And many monographs such as "The World of Gods, Ghosts, Foxes and Demons - A Theory of Characters in Liaozhai"。
Ma Ruifang has many academic interests: she has studied "A Dream of Red Mansions" for more than 30 years，In addition，Has dabbled in both "Jin Ping Mei" and "Water Margin"。Literary creation has never given up，The novel "Blue Eyes, Black Eyes" was considered by critic Chen Huangmei as "inheriting the tradition of "Dream of Red Mansions""。Including the later "Eye of the Sky" and "Feeling the Four Seasons"，All won awards。
There is a strange theory in colleges and universities: research and creation are contradictory，Literature department teachers engaging in literary creation are not doing their job properly，Novel、Prose、Poems are not included in the workload。Someone asked Ma Ruifang: “Creation and research are like cars running on two lanes，We must take into account both aspects，It’s so hard and you still do it？" Ma Ruifang said: "They are like two rabbits，I drove them to a road。Research Novel，I can write novels。Cao Xueqin、Pu Songling、And Lev·Tolstoy、Shakespeare，They are all my teachers。When doing research，I pay special attention to details，Can find some unique angles。”
2004，After writing "From Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio to A Dream of Red Mansions"，Ma Ruifang is thinking that she can let Pu Songling go for a while，But CCTV's "Hundred Forum" program came to invite，Ask her to tell "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"，I became popular as I talked about it，After that, there was an endless stream of invitations from various publishing houses about "Liao Zhai"。
The "most environmentally friendly" novel in ancient China
"The Fantasy of Life - The Biography of Pu Songling" is the fourth biography about Pu Songling written by Ma Ruifang，Recalling the time when I received the invitation from the Writers Association，She said she was hesitant at first: "I have spent half of my life studying Pu Songling，Is it necessary to write another book？” Later I agreed。The process of writing a book is not easy，She spent more than 500 days checking more than 100 historical materials，Strive to achieve "no word has no origin，No word without source”。In the process of reorganizing，She also made many new discoveries，For example, Pu Songling has always loved a woman named Gu Qingxia，Finally got married with her in the work。In more than a year，Ma Ruifang gets up at 6 o'clock every morning，No break at noon，Worked until late at night: “Pu Songling is not dead yet，I’m almost exhausted！”
Once a scholar has devoted many years of energy，Research bet365 online betting appa certain dynasty、someone，I often like my research subjects more and more。In the process of research，Ma Ruifang did it the other way around。“The more I studied at first, the more I liked Pu Songling，Because he is knowledgeable，Almost every word used in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" has no origin。In case of failure in the imperial examination，Perseverance、I will spend my whole life writing this work of corruption and cruelty，worthy of admiration。Later, I disliked him less and less，Because he is a bit obsessed with officialdom: he has been trying to gain fame for fifty years，I also simulated writing so many memorials and poems praising the emperor。I often joke，Fortunately there is a Gongyuan in Shandong that blocked Pu Songling，Saved a great novelist。”
But for the male protagonist in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"，Ma Ruifang gave full affirmation。"Pu Songling has never been admitted to the imperial examination in his life，The talented scholars in his works are often depressed and frustrated，Very sad。Xi Fangping fights with iron bones and fierceness，Sun Tzu Chu left his soul because of love，These are all worthy of praise。But because men are burdened with more social pressure，Of course they are not as popular as Liaozhai women who are mainly responsible for marriage and love。”
Speaking of those female ghosts and foxes，This is when Ma Ruifang is most popular。She summarized the female ghosts written by Pu Songling in 5 words: "Poetry of beauty, weakness and coldness"，Beautiful、Weak、Afraid of cold、Sadness、Write poetry。“Their dresses are fluttering，Throw out flowers，Playing ding dong music，Reciting beautiful poems，Come here。They are all kinds of charming，Open-minded，Full of energy，Open-minded behavior，Not bound by feudal etiquette。They specialize in standing up when men are helpless，For example, ruby，When a man’s family is ruined, he comes back to help him revive his family business；Fengxian gave her husband a mirror，Supervise him to study and become famous。Some vixens let their men’s wives raise them even after they have given birth，I won’t be his wet nurse，Be a second-class citizen。It is their sense of modernity、Independent spirit，This is what makes them completely different from secular women。”
Ma Ruifang also emphasized，"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is the "most environmentally friendly" novel in ancient China，Full of magnificent imagination。"Every animal、Plant、Utensils transform into adults，Interacting with people，Just call it a fairy、Elf。Pu Songling has created the most types of fairies，What creatures are there in nature，Pu Songling created something accordingly。The little green bee turns into a graceful lady in green；The parrot turns into the sweet and talkative Ah Ying；The crow turns into the goddess Zhuqing。People and flowers fall in love，Peony、Chrysanthemum、Lotus turns into a scholar’s wife。The gods in the Bet365 gamesbook are also different from the past，Often serve others。Poor scholar who is a diaosi cannot pass the exam，No money again，A beautiful girl is here，No money, no house。This is a utopian world imagined by men。”
“Not all research can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people”
Although "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is the most studied，But let’s talk about Ma Ruifang’s favorite classical novel，Still "A Dream of Red Mansions"。She often said: ""A Dream of Red Mansions" is first-rate and beautiful，"A Dream of Red Mansions" is the ultimate in fun。"She gave 37 lectures on "Dream of Red Mansions" on Shandong Satellite TV、"Wang Xifeng" 24 lectures，Very well received。“Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio” can still be a dream，Still believe in dreams。"A Dream of Red Mansions" created the Grand View Garden in order to destroy it。"A Dream of Red Mansions" is waking up from a dream，No way to go。”
She likes Cao Xueqin even more than Pu Songling，Because Cao Xueqin is not an "official fan"，There is no such sour androcentric thought。Ma Ruifang’s father was a member of the Standing Committee of the Shandong Provincial People’s Congress、Provincial CPPCC member，Someone once advised her to pursue an official career，Her father knows her better，He said that if she were to serve as an official for three days, she would definitely offend everyone。
Among the lecturers of "Hundred Schools Forum"，The straightforward Ma Ruifang is also the most popular one。Yu Dan said: "The relationship between the speakers of "Hundred Schools Forum" is so harmonious，To a large extent because of Mr. Arima，She is everyone’s ‘personality hub’”。She gave everyone nicknames，"Big Brother Yi" Yi Zhongtian，"Xiao Nizi" Yu Dan，"Old Fool" Wang Liqun，"Old Man" Yan Chongnian... everyone called her a nickname after her，Mingle as one。
At home，The children call her "fat mom"，The grandson calls her "fat"，Ma Ruifang listened very happily。Published a few years ago，My daughter once asked her: "Fat Mom，What if no one buys your book？" Ma Ruifang said with a smile: "Then I will come back in despair with my fat tail between my legs！”
Some people say that Ma Ruifang is an academic star who became famous through television media，She disagrees，She said: "TV spreads classics，I think it mainly plays a role in popularization，Not all academic research can be explained in a simple way、Appreciate both refined and popular tastes，Like a version of a literary masterpiece、Research on the writer’s life，This all requires ten years of hard study。So-called academic star，If it weren’t for the hard study back then，The same cannot be said。”In her opinion，There should be more scholars doing popular work，But the premise is: go deep first，Zai Qian Chu。As for young scholars，Still "I never tire of reading old books a hundred times"，First, do a solid job in basic research。
