After reading Dongpo's biography, I feel like drinking a cup of warm jasmine milk tea in winter. Originally, when I looked at his wandering life through the book, I only felt that the years were cold, but the moment I closed the book, a warm current suddenly surged into my heart. It is the fragrance that comes out of suffering, and it is also the calmness he taught me. His life was like a pearl tempered in suffering. The danger of the Wutai Poetry Case and the barbarism of Huangzhou and Huizhou, if it were anyone else, they might have sunk in the darkness. But he didn't. He had several ups and downs, and was framed by villains many times, but he was never smoothed away by the world. While building rivers and floods, rescuing people and supporting farmers, he was also making wine, cooking, and reciting poems. He tempered his sharp edge, but never tempered his inner light. Real strength is not that you have never been hurt, but that you can brew a pot of tea and brew a cup of sweetness for yourself even in the wind and rain. He spent his life's suffering to brew the most mellow spiritual milk tea for future generations. At this moment, what I drink is not only the jasmine milk tea in my hand, but also the human smoke and eternal compassion that Dongpo left to me.
The author narrates Mr. Dongpo's life through his works of different periods, as well as folk stories and related historical materials. Why is life unhappy? It's just because I haven't read Su Dongpo! Su Shi's life was upright and upright, but he encountered ups and downs. However, he was humorous and open-minded. He looked up at the stars in the mud and smiled at life in the face of difficulties. Huangzhou, Huizhou and Danzhou were framed, relegated and exiled time and time again, and poems that have been popular throughout the ages were born. Through this book, we can learn about Su Shi's life and appreciate his amazing poems and articles.
"The Biography of Su Dongpo" written by Qin Xiao takes the flow of time and regional changes as clues. The whole book has a clear context and rigorous structure. It follows Su Shi's life and fully presents his ups and downs in officialdom, life encounters and the evolution of his thoughts. The biographical narrative is full of twists and turns, not only describing the ups and downs of his official career and the vagaries of the world, but also depicting the richness and complexity of human nature. It also focuses on highlighting Su Shi's attitude towards life that was always open-minded, transparent, calm and self-sufficient despite adversity. The work portrays Su Shi's character in a three-dimensional way, not only showing his talents and character, but also restoring his ordinary temperament and wisdom in life. What is particularly valuable is that the biography always highlights Su Shi's feelings of caring about the people and caring for people's livelihood. People often say that Su Shi was demoted most of his life, either in the place where he was demoted or on the way to be demoted. His official career was bumpy and he encountered difficult circumstances. Even so, no matter what position he held or where he lived, he always cared about the people at the bottom, based himself on the local area, worked pragmatically, and took practical actions to relieve the people's worries, reflecting the rare people-oriented sentiments and responsibilities of ancient scholar-bureaucrats. Reading through the whole book, the author summarizes Su Shi's life in a plain and simple way, presenting readers with the image of a talented scholar who experienced hardships but remained optimistic. However, there is still a certain distance between the Su Shi portrayed in the book and the perception and impression I have formed through poetry and historical materials over a long period of time. Although his character interpretation, spiritual emphasis and detail selection are unique in his own way, they fail to fully fit the fuller, more complex and vivid Su Dongpo in my mind. Overall, this book provides a clear reading path for understanding Su Shi, and also leaves room for further thinking and understanding for a more in-depth reading of Su Shi and his writings.
Mr. Dongpo is really a first-class wonderful person. All difficulties and dangers are dealt with calmly and with a smile. He is talented in literature and is also a first-class person who is willing to do practical things for the people. This book is really well written, vivid and elegant, very good, very good!
This "The Complete Biography of Su Dongpo" allowed me to see a more real and comprehensive Su Dongpo. He is not only a literary giant, but also a "civil servant" who is close to the people. As he said, "This is my hometown where my heart is at ease." No matter where he is, he can face it positively. The description of his versatility in the book is also wonderful, which I deeply admire. On the road to entrepreneurship, you must also learn from Su Dongpo's optimism and open-mindedness!

I like Su Dongpo. He was broad-minded and cared about the people. No matter what kind of blow he experienced, he was indomitable and worth learning.
I couldn't watch it at first, but in the end I felt it was not enough. , This book is so beautiful [Admiration]
It's very beautiful [almost crying] [almost crying] [almost crying] It can be said to be a conversation that has traveled through thousands of years. Every time I read a chapter and see familiar names, I feel emotional that these people really existed and spent every day like us. Very emotional [send heartfelt message] I also like it very much
This book is more in vernacular, with some characters' words and poems translated. It's easier to read, but it slightly loses its original charm. If you pursue the original flavor of the poem, I think Li Yibing's version is better.
Su Shi was repeatedly demoted and relegated throughout his life (such as Huangzhou, Huizhou, and Danzhou), but he always faced adversity with the mind of "taking care of the mist and rain for his whole life" ("Ding Fengbo"). Su Shi always cared about his family and country, paid attention to people's livelihood (such as managing the West Lake, fighting floods in Xuzhou), and practiced the Confucian ideal of "reaching and benefiting the world." He absorbed the "empty view" of Buddhism and the "natural" thought of Taoism, and put forward the philosophy of "change and immutability" in "Red Cliff Ode" to resolve the sense of emptiness in life. Loving landscapes: Su Shi comprehends life through natural scenery, such as "Only the breeze on the river and the bright moon in the mountains... Are the endless treasures of the Creator" ("Ode to Red Cliff"), which embodies the realm of unity between nature and man. Su Shi's spiritual core lies in maintaining spiritual freedom in difficult situations, resolving suffering with an aesthetic attitude, and ultimately achieving reconciliation between the individual and the world. His thoughts still have profound implications for contemporary people to deal with pressure and find the meaning of life, and he is known as "the highest example of the spirit of Chinese scholar-bureaucrats."
Easy to understand, comprehensive, and respectful of history Su Shi was knowledgeable, diligent and talented, humorous, playful, fond of making friends, and sometimes had the style of Wei and Jin Dynasties. He is a complex, a very complex complex, deeply influenced by the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and has become a complicated, complex and true-tempered Chinese. He is excellent and very real. He is like everyone around us, he will also feel scared, he will also feel lonely, he will also be confused, and there will be times when he is powerless. Then I felt that Su Shi was not a person, he represented a group of people. In the dynasty he lived in at that time, it is just that among the group of people represented by Su Shi, Su Shi may be more prominent. Why is Su Shi passed down? One reason is his status at that time. Although his political status was not very high, his influence in society at that time was very great. He was a national idol, so many of his deeds would attract more people's attention. There is also a person who likes to write poems to record his life, so that his life can be more complete, so that we, the future generations, can have a more complete glimpse of his entire life. In fact, aren't there tens of thousands of Chinese people? It's just that in reality there aren't many such people.
Very beautiful, the language is humorous and lively
