In the 1980 s,the all-round opening of the historical turning point in China triggered a new wave of "Western Learning Spreading East",and also opened the door to the entry and spread of the Magical Realism master Marquez's works and his creative ideas.Since then,Marquez's brushwork of “turning reality into fantasy without losing its reality” has quickly received attention and has produced a strong response.In the Chinese literary world,many writers have learned from his magical techniques and used them for their own creations.As one of them,Yan Lianke was deeply influenced by Marquez.Since the publication of <The Year,Moons,Days >and <The Day the Sun Died> in 1997,its creative style has been attributed to "China's magical realism." Yan Lianke once said on many occasions that "Marquez told me what is true." Marquez's true concept inspired Yan Lianke,infiltrated in his works,and the external representation is the convergence of intertextual and narrative styles of the storyline.However,"like" Marquez is only one side.After accepting Marquez's true view,due to the writer's writing personality and the change of cultural context,Yan Lianke gradually stepped out of the other's myth and transformed his creativity into "Mysterious realism”,and constantly innovating from the structure and style,forming a unique style of Yan,pointing directly to the "invisible" reality in Chinese society.It is worth noting that Yan Lianke's acceptance of Marquez was not achieved overnight.His attitude towards Marquez experienced the instinctual rejection of the1980 s.After the recognition of the mythology of the other in the 1990 s,he resonated.After the 21 st century,Yan Lianke gradually began to look for self-images,and carried out the process of transfer and transformation of the extracted things.Rejection-Resonance-Reconstruction reflects a dynamic process.Yanlianke uses his cultural pen to transform into a style of self-writing,and gradually constructs the subjectivity of literature.This paper is divided into five parts: The introduction mainly studies the research status,research methods,research ideas and academic significance.The fisrt chapter begins with the literary marriage of Yan Lianke and Marquez in the 1980 s.In the hottest era of Marquez in the 1980 s,Yan Lianke was out of culture.The persistence of tradition and the limits of its own comprehension have created a repulsive instinct from Marquez.The second chapter,combined with the text,tells the story of the 90 s,when Yan Lianke was sick,he accidentally picked up "One Hundred Years of Solitude".The special understanding of the disease made him quickly enter themagical world of Marquez,and opened his novel to the truth.Based on this,Yan Lianke's writing style and Marquez gradually converge.The third chapter focuses on Yan Lianke's “reconstruction” road.Due to the change of cultural context and the need of his own writing,Yan Lianke constantly innovates from narrative and stylistics,and returns to the Chinese cultural tradition.The realism of dynamic reconstruction directly refers to the invisible reality on the surface of Chinese society.Concluding remarks: Yan Lianke's acceptance of Marquez is a kind of dynamic construction that combines literary tradition with local experience and modernist techniques.This not only helps him find his own writing personality,but also points out a path for Chinese contemporary literature.That is to say,how to find the "self" through the "other".Under the long-term cover of Western discourse,Chinese modern and contemporary literature,how to get rid of the assimilation crisis and strive for its independence,integrating into the world literature.
