4.连句成篇
Mo Yan, whose real name is Guan Moye, was born in an ordinary peasant family of Shandong Province in 1955, when people didn't live a rich life and attached little importance to school education. As a consequence, he dropped out in the fifth grade in primary school. While working as a young peasant, out of a strong passion for literature, he committed to a variety of Chinese classics and gradually practiced writing stories.
Mo Yan created many famous literature works, including Red Sorghum and Frogs. Frogs won him Mao Dun Literature Awards in 2011 and he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2012.
In my opinion, what makes Mo Yan so extraordinary is not only his famous works but also his commitment to what he loves.
