Looking at the river of dust, what flows is earthly cause and effect. Qiucheng Li writes about the true nature of the world.
The series "Wangchen River·Needless to Say" is divided into three parts, the first part is "The World of Teachers and Students", the second part is "The Ups and Downs of College", and the third part "Jun Jie Chao Jie" is a realistic group portrait novel set in a university. There are no superpowers, no time travel, only the ups and downs of the workplace and the competition for professional titles inside and outside the classroom, between professional titles, the ups and downs of human relationships. Everyone is making their own choices. Some people go to appointments, and some people run away. Someone is drawing, someone is holding a knife. Some people changed words and sentences in the dark night, and some people spread the news outside the partition wall. And the river keeps flowing. There are no absolutely good guys or absolutely bad guys - there are only different positions and choices.
Li Mei is the narrative anchor throughout the series. She never actively intervened in the conflict, but happened to stand not far from the incident - across the office wall, across the cafeteria table, across the twilight river bank - saw some fragments, heard some rumors, and then put all the "unknown" and "uncertainty" in her heart. The narrative temperament of the "Wangchen River" series is restrained and non-sensational enough, making the inscription not an "ornament" but a window. Readers read the story through it, which gives them a layer of haziness and distance than watching it directly. This is exactly the original intention of the title "Looking at the River of Dust" - to watch the world flow by from a distance. This is a river that runs through the campus. On this side of the river are the review of lesson plans, projects, and professional titles; on the other side of the river are thesis, proposal, and graduation destination. The river is calm, but no one knows whether there is an undercurrent underneath.
Intention: Each has chosen his own path, each has taken his own river.
