The protagonist Zhang Yingxiong's father was angered to death because of the compensation issue for a demolition. In order to avenge his father, Zhang Yingxiong targeted Lu Zhiqiang, the person in charge of the demolition project, and wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate. However, in the process of brewing the revenge plan, Zhang Yingxiong spied on Lu Zhiqiang's idiot daughter Lu Shanshan, and his revenge changed accordingly... He always wanted to write a story about demolition. Because there is too much tragedy and too much anger. But is the novel simply about conveying anger? If we just put reality directly on paper, how can the power of fiction be as powerful as reality? Literature pays attention to specific people, and its disagreement with the system and intervention in social issues should also be from the perspective of people. For all suffering, hatred is never the antidote - neither in reality nor in literature. Based on the above understandings, the novel "On the Balcony" was created.

American writer Mark Twain once said: "Sometimes truth is more absurd than fiction." More than a century later, the Internet has completely changed people's lifestyles and ways of thinking. The ways in which people record life and witness history have become more and more diversified.

Based on this question, writer Ren Xiaowen used classic foreign masterpieces such as "Doctor Zhivago", "Les Misérables", "Lyric Poets in the Age of Advanced Capitalism", "Love in the Time of Cholera", "The Master and Marguerite", as well as the works of literary giants Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy as text entry points.
