Why is it said that "since the release of "Dream of Red Mansions", traditional thinking and writing methods have been broken?"

Lu Xun once pointed out: "In short, since the publication of "Dream of Red Mansions", traditional thinking and writing methods have been broken." What Lu Xun means by "all broken" refers to "the courage to describe truthfully, without concealment, and the narrative of previous novels."

The good guys are completely good and the bad guys are completely bad, they are very different, so the characters described in it are all real characters."

"A Dream of Red Mansions" does not describe the characters as the incarnation of a certain thought or personality, nor does it use the characters as a preaching tool.

The author uses delicate pen and ink to show the inherent vividness, richness and complexity of life itself.

"A Dream of Red Mansions" breaks the single-line structure of traditional novels.

It takes the love and marriage relationships of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai as the central clue, and also unfolds the description of other characters and events in the aristocratic family.

While firmly grasping the love and marriage tragedies of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai, it also unfolds a broad description of the social environment, thereby writing out the social roots of this tragedy.
