As the Reform and Opening has started a brand new time forMODERN CHINESE LITERATURE ,"Teenager writing"has been moreand more significant and trendy. At the beginning of 1990s,which was written by a high school student who wascalled Yuxiu started the new trend of teenager writing, and brought alot of new ideas of writing not only to the society but also to the wholeliterary circle. The book with a new perspective showed us the changesof some high school students'lives, and all the changes were caused bythe Reform and Opening. And it showed us what was in teenagers'head, at the mean time it showed us new life style and new character.Another outstanding teenager writer at the beginning of 20th centurywas really unique and talented. And his first novelwas also based on school live, but it reflected lots of aspects of our life.And he satirized all the things out of him. His name is Hanhan.Both of Yuxiu and Hanhan finished their first novel when theywere high school students. But each work has its own style and theme.Just ten years later, the teenager writing has been really different from it was. Even both of Yuxiu and Hanhan have changed their ownstandpoints .And all the changes are due to the changes of the time andsociety. Yuxiu experienced the time of changing into market‐orientedeconomy from planned economy, and that was just the anarchy periodin China. Knowledge and money, planed and market‐oriented, materialand spiritual, all these things contradicted so strong. And all thesethings were really confusing, especially to a teenager. At the mean timethey were impressed by the changes which took place in their families.But Hanhan was grown up in 1990s, that's was the time of peace. Andalso the confusion of money and politics were gone, instead theeconomy was increasing rapidly. And just because of this the societystarted changing as well. All the changes brought various side effects toall the teenagers. They started being disappointed and suspected to thesociety. In addition, after the Reform and Opening, the changes of theliterary circle also impressed them unobtrusively and imperceptibly,and their thoughts were changing gradually and separately. Since theGreat Cultural Revolution ended in 1976, the literary also started a newdeveloping time. Young Yuxiu or unconsciously, will she recovery ofthe 1980s literary trends of the emancipation of the mind and understanding into her work, in the words revealed scar literature fromtime to time, to reflect on the reform of literature and literary shadow.At the same time, the 1980s ideal of the cultural atmosphere of Yuxiugeneration of young people?s outlook on life and values has also had abig influence in the works Yuxiu, the embodiment of a more in thefuture filled with hope and optimism confidence . Since the 1990s, asthe socialist market economy in full swing, literary activities alsoincreasingly become a social production and entered the market.Literature Centre inevitably gradually retreated from the brink of thisliterature has marginalized the situation so that it can be a space forcreative freedom, personal writing and Whispers tendency to become anew craze, which also coincided with Hanhan generation is in a periodof rebellious young hearts match, making Hanhan instinct in the worksshowing a tendency of personal writing. At the same time Vanguardwriting subversive and rebellious characteristics of the art of literatureHanhan a subtle influence. Hanhan works continuously in thedigestion depth model, the negative rules, abolition of the Centre, thedestruction of traditional, showing contempt for the classics, and bycontinuously ?digestion? and realize the social and external constraints resistance has revealed post‐modern deconstruction tendencies.Although Yuxiu and Hanhan works from the contents of the formare formed two distinct style. But through careful analysis of the text,revealed that the pair were in the hearts of young people have someunique characteristics of the common law. 16‐year‐old Yu Xiu andHanhan is in transformation from child to adult transition period,during this period the young people?s awareness of childhood have agreater or lesser extent insist that they have the instinctive curiosityand thirst for knowledge, both keen awareness of the unknown‐ theemotional, and the uncertainty with the fears of the outside world. Insuch complex emotions under control, the same duo in the works toreflect on the self‐awareness to the community a high degree ofconcern over the resistance of parents and teachers, the opposite sexand love interest, and other youth‐specific Character. At the same time,?Self? the awakening of the awareness and the ultimate establishmentof the ideological make young people in need of social recognition, therecognition of their independence as a person rather than parentsappendages?s autonomous status, such eager to agree with thesentiments of the two Works are also embodied. In addition, Yuxiu Hanhan and after the Cultural Revolution in the new period of socialistgrew up, when puberty and before they have a different generation oflife experience, their spiritual world and the adults are very different.They coexist with the rebels inherited holds the attitude of, or active orpassive integration into the adult world.Writing since the beginning of youth began Yuxiu, under theimpetus of the Hanhan created an upsurge, and the other ?after 80?writers have appeared together in the field of literature, and books setoff a new round of market strength of the shock wave. These age donot have a youth writers at the beginning of the Popular LiteratureLiterature consumer side, hovering in the popular literature and theliterary pure literature, it at least means that the concept of the changein the literature is a consumer progress. At the same time, many youngpeople love literature has its own arena, the words to express his socialawareness. However, these young people experience life less richenough accumulated knowledge, the direct decision of the works theyhave created their own artistic value is not high. In addition, theoffering of killing in the media speculation and commercial mechanism,and youth writing more inclined to public entertainment, with great concentration makes the original writing of young people indulging inthe pursuit of being rich man, and ignore the literary value and charmof its own.With Teenager a large number of emerging writers, ?New Writing?gradually ?after 80? concept alternative, youth writing itself embarkedon a decline and transformation of the road, no one is a succession ofembarrassing predicament. But young people writing such a literarytrend has already boarded soon after, the new batch of young writerswill be new perspective of their feelings about the new growth ofyoung people encountered in the past with new and differentproblems , puzzles and new solutions, they will show a new adolescentunique spiritual world.
