深圳作协于去年12月举办了首届粤港澳大湾区文学发展峰会，邀请了北上广深港澳的著名文化学者，从宏观角度，探讨、展望湾区文学的发展前景，引起了全国文化界的关注和期待。

今年9月，深圳作协举办了第二届粤港澳大湾区文学发展峰会，邀请了“9+2”城市的作协负责人参会，从协同、合作层面，具体讨论了如何推动湾区文学的发展，发表了倡议书。接着，深圳作协与阿里文学联合举办了首届“大湾区杯”网络文学大赛。

我将两次峰会嘉宾的主要论述在此与大家分享。

首届粤港澳大湾区文学峰会上，陈思和教授指出：“如果把城市文学、华文文学放到粤港澳大湾区的架构来构思、建设它的文学理念特别有意思。如果我们放在华文文学这样一个世界文学地图里看，最早是中国本土的文化，然后往南就有岭南文化，有香港文化、澳门文化，再有台湾地区的文化，往外有马来西亚、新加坡一带南洋的华侨文化，再往外就到欧洲、美国、加拿大这样一些地方的华文文学。一个多层次的文化版图就这样形成了。如果我们把它放在一个地图上看的话，恰恰这个大湾区是在中心。”

陈晓明教授认为：“大湾区文学的提出是很有创造力、有当代性的一个概念。大湾区是城市化程度最高的一个地区，也是经济最富有活力的地区，是改革开放的示范区，也是未来中国发展的引领区域。可以从它和未来城市发展相关的意义上来创建新型文学的设想。大湾区文学的特点之一，是它的多元性和多样化。粤港澳地区本身的文化是有一脉相承的基础，同时也有不同的文化滋养。如此丰富多元的文化结合在一起形成一种新的互动。”

王晓明教授说：“面对都市和城市化给我们布下的这许多挑战和危机，我们的理解和应对，常常是太狭隘、太短视，而这与城市文化有关。我们的都市会如何选择，最终取决于生活于其中的人是怎么样的，而人会怎么样，又在很大程度上是取决于他们在文化上是怎么样的。中国的城市如何往前走，甚至这个大湾区如何往前走，都是在不同的程度上，真正关系到天下的大事，因此，在这里将要起很大的决定作用的是文化。一百年前，岭南是出真正大器的新文化的地方，非常期待今天的粤港澳大湾区还能成为这样的地方。”

黄子平教授指出：“进入21世纪，粤语文学的发展，第一就是多媒体扩展了粤语文学的读者群。很多人不在广州也不在港澳地区生活，但是可以听懂广东话，会跟着粤语歌曲唱。多年来香港的粤语写作创造或发掘了许多‘粤语字’，也就是说用电脑写粤语已经很方便，无需另行造字。粤语文学存在着何种可能，这些能否成为现实，还要拭目以待。”

许子东教授说：“网络文学已成为深圳文学未来无限的基础。提出大湾区文化或者大湾区文学，深圳在里面起的作用是非常之大的。尤其是深圳GDP发展快速，而且现在深圳从集中劳动力的形象转到无人飞机、腾讯高科技、第二个硅谷等形象，备受瞩目。网络文学已经成为深圳文学以及中国当代文学未来无限的基础，是我们社会的矛盾的集合，是年轻人的中国梦。”

对于如何去构建粤港澳大湾区文学共同体，这成为第二届大湾区文学峰会的议题。省作协张知干书记在致辞中提到：大湾区文学必定能够在不断的融合中建立一套先进的文学合作机制，探索走出一条超越常规的发展路径，缔造世界级城市群文学发展史的“湾区方案”。努力把粤港澳大湾区建设成为国际文学版图中最璀璨夺目的区域板块。

“9+2”城市代表们探讨了粤港澳大湾区文学合作长效机制。峰会一致通过了由深圳代表提出的粤港澳大湾区文学合作发展倡议书。倡议书倡导：建立粤港澳三地十一城市文学合作长效机制，通过定期或不定期举行文学会议或论坛，不断加强文学交流互动；通过共建城市文学活动载体，互通文学作品发表渠道，不断完善文学交流平台；通过轮值承办粤港澳大湾区文学发展峰会，不断推进文学联动，构建粤港澳三地文学界交流合作新格局，形成粤港澳大湾区文学共同体，使之成为华语文学走向世界、走向未来的重要枢纽。

Preliminary Study Of Literature Development In 

Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area

Li Lanni (China) 

The Shenzhen Writers’ Association held the first the Greater Bay Area Literature Development Summit in last December . We invited famous scholars from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hongkong and Macau to this summit to explore the future development of literature in the Greater Bay Area from a macro perspective which attracted attention and expectation from the national culture circles.

In this September, the Shenzhen Writers’ Association held the second summit and invited people from Writers’ Associations in 9+2 cities. Together we discussed how to promote the literature development in this area in terms of cooperation and coordination and we published a proposal. Then, the Shenzhen Writers’ Association and Ali Literature co-held the first “Greater Bay Area Cup” Network Literature Competition.

I will share with you some of the main points proposed by guests in these two summits. At the first summit, Prof. Chen Sihe pointed out that “It is particularly interesting to re-think and build urban literature and Chinese literature in Greater Bay Area context. When we look at Chinese literature, we will notice China’s local culture first, then going south we have Lingnan Culture, Hongkong Culture, Macau Culture, Taiwan Culture and further beyond we have overseas Chinese Culture in Southern Asian countries like Malaysia and Singapore. The map then reaches to Europe, America and Canada etc., and we have a multi-tier culture map. The Greater Bay Area locates exactly at the center of this particular map.”

Professor Chen Xiaoming: “The concept of Greater Bay Area Culture is creative and contemporary. It is the most urbanized area with an economy with most vitality. It is a model zone for reform and opening up and will surely lead China’s future development. We can boldly connect literature development with future city development. Literature here is diverse. Cultures in this area have the same foundation but with different nourishments. Such a rich and diverse culture will together create a new form of interaction.”

Professor Wang Xiaoming: “Our understanding of and reaction to the challenges and crises that cities and urbanization have given us are often too narrow and short-sighted as a result of city culture. City’s decision depends on people living in it, and people’s decision depends on their culture. China’s cities future development and this Greater Bay Area’s future development will influence the whole world to some degree. That’s why culture matters. Lingnan cultivated many talents and cultures a hundred years ago. I hope the Greater Bay Area will reclaim this honour.”

Professor Huang Ziping: “Cantonese literature in 21st century is expanded by multimedia. Many people who don’t live in Guangzhou or Hongkong or Macau understand Cantonese and sing Cantonese songs. Many Cantonese characters are created by HK’s Cantonese writers and it is very convenient to type in Cantonese without switching to Mandarin. I’m looking forward to future possibilities of Cantonese literature.”

Professor Xu Zidong: “Network literature offers numerous possibilities for Shenzhen’s literature. Shenzhen has a significant role to play in Greater Bay Area Culture or Literature. Shenzhen is rapidly developing in terms of GDP, its label is also shifted from labor-intense industry to high-tech industry like drones, Tencent Technology or so-called the second Silicon Valley. Network Literature is the foundation of future development of Shenzhen literature as well as Chinese contemporary literature. It is a collection of contradictions in our society and represents youngsters’ Chinese Dream.”

The topic issue of this second Literature Summit is how to build a Greater Bay Area literary community. Zhang Zhigan, the secretary of Guangdong Writers’ Association mentioned in his speech that “Greater Bay Area literature will explore an advanced system of cooperation through continuous integration, and a development path beyond conventions, thus creating its own development plan, one that fits in the progress of literature in a world-class city group. We must strive to build it into the most shining part in the international literature landscape.”

Representatives from 9+2 cities discussed the long-term literature cooperation mechanism in the Greater Bay Area. The summit unanimously approved Shenzhen representatives’ proposal to cooperate and develop literature. It advocates to build a long-term literature cooperation mechanism among 11 cities of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau by means of regular or random sessions or forums for further exchanges; it also advocates to co-host literary events and share publishing channels, thus improving the exchange platform. In addition, it advocates to host the Summit in turns to strengthen links and build a new pattern for cooperation and communication among Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau. A literary community will become an important hub for Chinese literature to go global and look ahead.”. The relevant plans are implemented step by step. It has bright future prospects and far-reaching impacts.
