In the Archives Bureau, we have invited criminal investigation experts and forensic doctors. They used their own experiences to take you through the thread and find the truth behind the case.
You must have heard of the famous Tang Feng! In the writing of the author @Yes is me , the old criminal policeman Tang Feng and his apprentices solved many intricate cases and became the guardian of peace and justice.
At the very beginning of the Archives Bureau, we invited this old criminal policeman to share with you the thrilling cases he had experienced and the stories of serious cases that happened in real life.
Today, the director will take everyone to review the classics, and listen to the man behind Tang Feng tell his own story, that’s right, he is!
This “Tang Feng” is exactly him
“Perfect Murder: 7 True and Serious Stories from an Old Criminal Police Officer” is the first salt-selected story column published on Zhihu by the respondent “Yes, it’s me”, and it is also the beginning of his own short story creation.
The two protagonists in the column – senior criminal investigator Tang Feng (also the pseudonym used by the respondent at the same time), who has twenty years of police experience and participated in solving several serious cases, and his colleague and apprentice Han Dongsheng – passed the front line. In the tone of the criminal investigator’s narrative, the story presents 7 “perfect” criminal cases.
“Perfect Murder: 7 True Crime Stories from an Old Detective” paper book
These cases are either the crime scene is a seamless back room; or the suspect has an impeccable alibi; or the killer is so close, but there is no evidence to arrest him…
But what is most fascinating is the truth behind these stories. The creation of the column is not completely fictional, and they are more or less related to the respondent’s own work.
In the real world, the respondent “Yes, it’s me” is a post-80s senior legal practitioner and a criminal science and technology researcher.
And what motivated him to become a writer is also very strange.
At that time, the popular work “Ghost Blowing the Lamp”, because the author of the world was too slow to update, the third uncle of the Southern School simply wrote “Notes on Tomb Robbers” by himself.
And the reason why “Yes, it’s me” started writing is because there were too many unfilled holes in “Notes of Tomb Raiders” by the third uncle of the Southern School. “It was really uncomfortable to wait, so I started to write it myself.”
As a generation who has read more books than TV since he was a child, and regarded words as an important medium, “That’s Right” began to publish articles in domestic fiction journals when he was in college, and began his own journey of creating suspense novels. At that time, he serialized on Tianya Forum, which attracted huge attention. In 2010, he published his first mystery novel.
Publishing a book not only helped him improve his ability to systematically plan long-form literary works, but also allowed him to meet a group of loyal and professional readers. Among them, there is today’s Zhihu Yanxuan column producer.
In 2019, at the invitation of the Zhihu column producer, “That’s right is me” entered the Zhihu column. Based on personal experience, he created various crime stories that combine reality and reality to explore the subtleties of human nature.
In Zhihu, write justice
In addition to the fact that the material is not completely fictional, “Perfect Murder” has a strong personal style imprint in its narrative techniques and value orientation-
First of all, even though the title of the column contains the word “murder”, in the story, the author deliberately avoided the detailed description of the modus operandi and the bloody scenes, and those “born criminals” characters rarely appeared, almost all of them were It was written in two or three sentences, briefly stating the facts of someone’s murder and the general process of committing the crime. He didn’t intend to use these curious contents to catch people’s attention.
“There is no question of keeping confidentiality,” said “That’s right,” said, “Many modus operandi can be seen on the Internet and on TV. I just don’t like to write about such intensely sensual things. I focus more on it. On whether a character can empathize with you.”
Many creators of the same theme are prone to over-digging the logic of the crime and forcibly pursue high-energy reversal. “That’s right is me” does not agree with this point. “In reality, not all crimes follow perfect logic and are full of randomness, which is the normal state of criminal motives.”
He has been in the business for more than ten years, and he is well aware that the identity of a good person and a bad person is not constant, but depends more on the context. This became the reason why he abandoned the black-and-white setting and tried his best to create complex characters.
Secondly, the high-energy front-line criminal investigation work scene makes the stories he wrote present a spectacle in itself. However, the answerer did not stop at reproducing the spectacle, but took a step forward, giving guidance on values—that is, at the end of each short story, through the mouth of the protagonist “Tang Feng”, expressing the author’s views Simple values.
At the end of the story “The Suspect Died Three Years ago” , “Tang Feng” said to Ma Li, the murderer who planned to murder his father: “Once the fire of hatred is ignited, it will either motivate people to forge ahead or backlash. And this fire, rather than being used to perish with those who hate it, might as well be used to illuminate your future.”
At the end of “The Body Appearing Out of Nowhere in the Rental House “, “Tang Feng” reassured his apprentice Han Dongsheng, who was disappointed with human nature due to the complicated case, not to be discouraged: “No matter how strong the wind is, the sun can’t be blown away.”
Such treatment is directly related to the purpose of his writing. The introduction of “Yes, it’s me” on Zhihu is “writing justice”, which is not a wish that can be realized only by subjective prayer, but also requires action.
Specific to an author, the choice of “it’s me” is to write this value into the work. This is not intentional. Writing with values has always been difficult to disguise. In his own words, “words are fingerprints. Police, judges, and prosecutors all face the dark side of society. Only those who recognize this very simple value can stick to this position in a disciplined and lawful manner.”
The optimism and yearning and respect for positive energy revealed between the lines of these stories are wishes that have long been integrated into his blood and will be revealed subconsciously.
In addition, the “Yes, That’s Me” Shio selected works are also “three-dimensional” from the text. At the end of 2021, the drama “The Fourth Interrogation Room” adapted from the “Perfect Murder” column will be launched on the video platform. In the post-epidemic era, the criminal investigation journey of the master and the apprentice is like a booster, injecting “justice” into more people. “the power of.
And this year, the paper version of “Perfect Murder”, “Edge – Tang Feng Detective Notes” has also been published.
He wrote his thoughts on Zhihu: “It has been two years since “Perfect Murder” was launched. I am fortunate to see it climb the top of the column day by day, which is exciting and gratifying. What makes me even more happy is that many readers are under the column. Messages, large paragraphs of words, like lava gushing out, hot and surging, but also rational and gentle.
They talk about the root of sin, write their own insights, and love and cherish life. More valuable, they have persistence and love for integrity. This world, because of such people, is moving towards a better place step by step. “
Draw the perfect circle for “fairness and justice”
The respondents believe that almost all progress in society is driven by positive things.
“I think one of the reasons why I like Zhihu is the readers here. I can really feel the yearning for fairness and justice and the determination of many readers to maintain it. They can keep a clear mind and a clear mind in a very complex society. They are very professional, very young and very confident, which I think is a sign of a strong country.”
Most of his readers are post-90s and post-00s. These young people who have just entered the society are the most energetic group in society. They are also at the age of forming three views. He hopes that his writing can bring hope to these people.
When “Perfect Murder” was serialized, a female reader left a message saying that she was inspired to take the police exam after graduation. “That’s right, it’s me” reminded the other party to consider carefully while being surprised, and reminded the other party of possible risks. But the next time we talked, the girl still sent her own admission survey form for public security majors. For a creator, his works are seen by readers and have an impact on readers, and this process is fed back through the actions of readers, which makes him heartily moved.
Reality and works seem to be intertextualized at this moment. As the absolute center of the murder universe, “Tang Feng” has always been the focus of the author’s writings. In the setting, this is already an extremely stable and perfect police officer. Today, “That’s Right” has added more ink to Tang Feng’s apprentice Han Dongsheng. In the new column, Han Dongsheng appears more and more frequently, grows faster and faster, and becomes Tang Feng’s right-hand man. with best friends. Just like the progress of society, it is also completed in such a stick-to-stick handover.
“That’s right, it’s me” admires Luo Xiang. He believes that for a legal worker and legal worker, it is not easy to balance real work and human nature. Many highly rational people in the world lack a little humanistic care, but he appreciates Luo Xiang’s care when interacting feel. At the same time, the writer he admires most is Yu Hua, because “his words are humorous and simple, but you can read a kind of sadness.”
With more than ten years of professional experience, he has witnessed the magnificent and complex human nature. During the interview, we asked the Lord what instructions he had for the young people in this world. He solemnly expressed—
“This world is cruel, but it is also beautiful. Be kind, but you must always be vigilant and keep a cautious optimism about life in order to walk more steadily. If possible, be a good person, if you have enough concentration And will, to be an upright person. To a certain extent, being an upright person is more difficult than being a good person, because the latter only needs to be yourself, while the former has to influence others. The beauty of this world is determined by every good person forged with the upright.”
After chatting with the shaper behind Tang Feng, we deeply realized the hard-won peace and tranquility. Thinking of that sentence, “The years are quiet, that’s because someone is carrying the load for us.”
Finally, if you are a serious suspense story lover, want to watch the criminal police’s case handling process, and want to know the truth behind those bizarre cases, just watch it! The director took a step first, and brushed it three times~
