莫言，原名管謨業，獲得2012年諾貝爾文學獎後他的名字在中國廣爲人知。這個57歲的人是獲得該獎項的中國第一人。他是一名小說家和短片故事家，1955年2月17日出生於山東省高密縣。由於他的知名度，該地成爲了一個旅遊景點。對於他獲的獎，中國媒體大量報道這則令人振奮的消息。結果，成千上萬的人跳出來說，莫言是他們最喜歡的作家，儘管有的人並不知道莫言是誰。而且，莫言的小說被放到書店最暢銷書架上，有的甚至缺貨了。

As a famouscontemporary Chinese writer, Mo Yan is a prolific author, having published dozensof short stories, most of which are related to the countryside that full filledof complex emotion of nostalgia and complain. His works are deeply impacted bythe magic realism that he creates unique subject feeling world by fantasticalnarration in his novels, bring his works the color of “Pioneer”. The SwedishAcademy praised his work which "with hallucinatory realism merges folktales, history and the contemporary". The Swedish Academy praised his workwhich "with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and thecontemporary". Some people may not know who Mo Yan is before, but theymust know some of his works. For example, a famous film directed by Zhang Yimouthat won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival in 1988 was adapted fromhis novel Red Sorghum which was a tale of the brutal violence in the easternChina countryside, where he grew up, during the 1920s and 1930s.

作爲中國當代著名的作家，莫言擁有很多作品，曾出版了數十篇短篇故事，大部分都是與充滿複雜懷舊情感和抱怨的鄉村生活有關。他的作品深受魔幻現實主義的影響，他通過小說中奇幻的敘事創造了獨一無二的主觀感覺色彩，使他的作品成爲了色彩“先鋒”。瑞典皇家科學院稱讚他的作品是“歷史和當代幻覺現實主義融合的民間神話”。有的人以前可能不知道莫言是誰，但是他們必須知道他的一些作品。比如說，由張藝謀導演，獲得了1988年柏林電影節金熊獎的著名電影《紅高粱》就是由他的小說改編而來的。這是一個關於中國東部鄉村地區的殘酷暴力的故事，那是20世紀20年代至30年他在那裏長大的地方。

Generallyspeaking, his awarded means a lot to China, especially Chinese literature. TheNobel Prize for literature is a dream of Chinese literary field and all Chinesepeople. However, as a large cultural country that owns countless classic works,China had no winner of the Nobel Prize for literature which had become a greatpity. Therefore, this prize finishes a pile wish of Chines people. In addition,although we have a great number of great works, very few people are willing reada book carefully and tranquilly in the impetuous society. I think this excitingnews will renew people’s enthusiasm towards literature, which is a greatmotivation to the development of literature. This is what we are happy to see.

一般來說，他獲獎對中國意味着很多，尤其是對中國文學。諾貝爾文學獎是中國文學界以及所有中國人的夢想。然而，作爲擁有無數經典作品的文化大國，中國還沒有諾貝爾文學獎獲得者，這成爲了一大遺憾。因此，這個獎完成了許多中國人的願望。另外，儘管我們有很多偉大的作品，但是，在這個浮躁的社會，很少有人願意仔細安靜的讀一本書。我認爲這個令人振奮的消息會重新點燃人們對文學的激情，這對文學的發展來說是一個巨大的推動。我們很高興看到這樣的局面。
