Extended data:
Jin Yong became famous in the 1950s and 1960s. For decades, reports about him have been saturated, and any news about him always stirs up a thousand waves with one stone.
In an interview in Xu Gehui, Jin Yong once said that he no longer wrote preface inscriptions for young people because he found that some people sold his words for money.
No media can interview him in recent years. Some media made a special trip to Hong Kong and wrote to He Mingshe, the company founded by Jin Yong, hoping to get some news about Jin Yong, but He Mingshe replied: "What is known is known, and what is unknown may be privacy that I don't want to talk about. Keep it unknown. "
It is also difficult to interview Jin Yong's family. It is not impossible to find it, but "silence" to the outside world. Their purpose is very simple, that is, "let the elderly live a clean and peaceful life of' quitting the rivers and lakes'."
It seems to be the plot in Jin Yong's martial arts novels that he became famous in his prime, washed his hands in his later years and retired from the Jianghu. But in any case, the generation influenced by him must always understand his old age from little by little.
In his later years, Jin Yong did not seem to have a great burden. He once said that the secret of his health preservation is not to be sad, but to be happy.
Usually he likes to read history books for about 4 hours every day. When he used to work in a newspaper, he often had to work the night shift and didn't go to bed until four or five in the morning. Sometimes he has to play cards after the night shift. This habit hasn't changed for some time. I also watch TV, but I don't watch much, mainly the news.
Although he was old, Jin Yong never gave up studying. His friend once told the media that Jin Yong wanted to complete his life transformation in his later years and March from the literary world to the academic world, probably because reading is more important than writing novels in his heart.
"Learning is your own benefit and you can be happy." Jin Yong once said, "The lack of knowledge is a great regret in my life".
