Because she likes to read Jin Yong's

Gu Long's martial arts works

In her spare time, she writes online novels for self-entertainment

Never thought of it After publishing the novel, one day at the suggestion of her classmates, she sent the manuscript of "Shuo Tan Jing" to the "Flower Rain" magazine, which caused a sensation and won the first Huayu "Flower and Dream" National Romance Award Novel essay contest first place. Since then, she has successively published works such as "Lianhualou with Auspicious Patterns", "Jiugong Dance" and "Ziji Dance", which has gained a large number of fans and established her position in the field of martial arts romance online novels. She is known as the "Queen of Chivalrous Love". Now, with more than 20 years of creative experience, she has already written a body of books, "There should be forty or fifty, I haven't counted them in detail." In her opinion, the fun of the creative process is far more important than the result.

won the "Mao Dun Newcomer Award·Internet Literature Award" this time, and Ye Pingping was also quite surprised—"I didn't expect much when I sent the application materials. Awarded." In fact, as early as 2019, Ye Pingping was nominated for the "Mao Dun Literary Newcomer Award·Internet Literature Newcomer Award". When the organizing committee called to inform her to go to the scene to receive the award, it also triggered her professional sensitivity - thinking it was a scam call. Ye Pingping said that the nomination award is already the pinnacle of her life in her opinion, and it is even more unbelievable to be directly included in the list this time.

The police work makes her works more down-to-earth

The "Mao Dun Newcomer Award" to Ye Pingping's award speech reads: "Tengping is famous for 'romance', but she continues to expand on the route of martial arts 'romance'. Many elements of suspense, thriller, reasoning, and science fiction are added to different works, which makes the works have profound connotations and have distinctive characteristics of cross-border and comprehensive", from which we can see the diversity of his novels. After graduating from

university, Ye Pingping joined the Xiamen Municipal Public Security Bureau. Compared with the works of her student days, although she is still writing fantasy novels after work, the parts involving characters, behaviors, and motivations have become closer to real life. Ye Pingping believes that this is inseparable from her work experience. Ye Pingping has been in the police force for nearly 20 years, from household registration police to immigration police, Ye Pingping has rich experience. "The police work has a wide range of social contacts, which has increased my experience, and the things I write are naturally more down-to-earth."

But many people are curious: As a policeman, why don't you start with the things around you and write some stories about the case? Ye Pingping explained that there are many types of police officers, with different job contents and workflows. Because her understanding is not comprehensive enough, she is reluctant to write lightly, for fear of misleading readers. However, recently she has also begun to try to create a work "Who's Mr. Yu" related to the theme of public security. This is a novel about preventing Internet fraud. Speaking of the original intention of writing this novel, Ye Pingping said, "Because I have come into contact with too many fraud cases in the front desk work, sometimes I am really angry, so I want to write something of social significance." Works, warn the public, and fulfill the writer’s responsibility and social responsibilities.”

The “Tengda” of online literature is very low-key in daily life

Many years ago, a publishing house once persuaded Ye Pingping to resign and concentrate on writing, but she declined. Ye Pingping said, "I am a very ordinary person. Only when I have a job can I feel safe. Writing novels is a hobby, and it will be very stressful to turn my hobby into a job." At the same time, "I don't think a good novel can be written if a person is out of touch with society."

Ye Pingping's readers call her "Teng Da". In the world of online literature, she is the "great god" in the hearts of readers. Back in real life, Ye Pingping said that she is just an ordinary person - busy with work and raising a baby. She seldom shows up as "Tengping" in public, and she doesn't mix with any writing circles, so she is very low-key.

Ye Pingping said that she is a writer with a very slow update speed, "I can grind articles of two to three thousand words from morning to night." She also said sweetly, "My husband often urges me, 'Why don't you hurry up? Write, the time for submission is coming'." Although she is busy with work and has less time for writing, she still insists on finding time to create every week.
