    1. Zhang Ailing.

    is a man with a great story, a rather controversial character.

    Zhang Ailing's character gathers a lot of contradictions: she is a hedonist who is good at turning art into life and living art, and she is also a person who is full of tragedy about life; She is a famous lady, but she proudly declares that she is a self-reliant citizen; She is sad and compassionate, and always sees the "pitiful" behind the "ridiculousness" of all living beings, but in real life, she seems indifferent and unkind; She is well-versed in the world, but she herself does her own thing no matter how she treats others and dresses. She is at home with readers in her articles, but she always keeps a distance from outsiders from peeking into her heart; She was a big hit in Shanghai in the 40s, but decades later, she lived in seclusion in the United States, living in isolation, so much so that some people said:

    Only Zhang Ailing can endure the dazzling noise and extreme loneliness at the same time. ”

    2. Character Profile:

    Zhang Ailing is a modern Chinese writer originally from Tangshan City, Hebei Province.

    Formerly known as Zhang Lang. He was born on September 30, 1920 in a declining aristocratic mansion in the western district of the Shanghai Public Concession.

    In 1944, Zhang Ailing became acquainted with Hu Lancheng and had a relationship with her. In 1973, Eileen Chang settled in Los Angeles, and on September 8, 1995, coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Festival, Eileen Chang's landlord found her dead in her apartment on Rochester Avenue in Westwood, California, at the age of 75 due to arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, and she had been dead for a week when she was found. On September 30, a memorial service was held for her by her former friends, and after the memorial service, her ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean.

    Eileen Chang's works mainly include **, essays, film scripts and literary treatises, and her letters have also been studied as part of her writings.

    3. Character evaluation:

    In 1961, Xia Zhiqing wrote his masterpiece "Modern Chinese History".

    The author excavates and argues Zhang Ailing, Zhang Tianyi, and Qian Zhongshu.

    The status of important writers such as Shen Congwen in the history of literature has a far-reaching influence, especially for Zhang Ailing. Zhang Ailing has always been considered a popular ** family, and in the eyes of critics, she is "not elegant", but Xia Zhiqing gave Zhang Ailing more space than Lu Xun in the ** history.

    is even twice as much, and he even thinks Zhang Ailing's "Golden Lock".

    It is "the greatest novella in China since ancient times". (Phoenix.com).

    Zhang Ailing is of course an unborn genius, and her writing style is interesting, as if bypassing the literature of the May Fourth period and directly from "Dream of Red Mansions".

    In the vein of "Golden Vase Plum", Zhang Ailing's ** language is purer and authentic Chinese, and her traditional Chinese cultural attainments are actually very deep. (Famous contemporary writer Bai Xianyong.)

    Only ** is the meaning of Zhang Ailing. Therefore, the result of the realization is to snatch Zhang Ailing out of **, and then return it to **. (Wang Anyi, a famous contemporary Chinese female writer).

    Her real name was Zhang Ying, and later changed to Zhang Ailing, and her English name was Eileen Chang. The following is the source:

    When Ailing was ten years old, her mother advocated sending her to school, her father repeatedly made a fuss and did not follow, and finally her mother sent her like human trafficking, because she already had a considerable foundation, so she entered the fourth grade of Huang's Primary School. The word describes her mood at the time: ailing, which means sick; unwell; Debilitating. Zhang Ailing's ordinary name was just a casual expression of her mother's troubled mood, but later it resounded throughout the literary world.

    Her mother had always planned to change it for her, but she didn't change it, and then later, Ailing didn't want to change it, and there was no need to change it. (Unity Publishing House, "The Biography of Zhang Ailing").

    Zhang Ailing's translated name is now more Eileen, and it is this name used in the English edition of Mr. Xia Zhiqing's "Modern History of China".
