前言 Foreword：
有一天，在王府井大街上，余华在人群中看见一个人，泪流满面，不管周围的嘈杂，自顾自的哭。余华想，究竟是什么样的人，有这样的悲伤？这个想法促成他写出了小说，许三观卖血记。一张哭泣的脸，和身体中的血发生关联。
我总天真的以为，画家的工作方法和作家是相反的，画家有自己的经历，有自己的观察，他看到人们忙于对自身的设计、改造、美化和建构，持有、培养并扩张内 心的期望，沉迷于各种有效性幻觉，看到月光照亮一切骨头，看到萎缩的牙床上又长出獠牙，画家把故事画成一张张变形的肖像，而后退到一边，不发一言。

One day, on the bustling Wangfujing Street, Yu Hua's gaze was arrested by a haunting vision, a solitary figure, tears streaming unabashed down his face, oblivious to the surrounding cacophony. Yu had a burning question: how and why did this person experience such misery? This poignant inquiry became the muse for his seminal novel Chronicle of a Blood Merchant, wherein the crying face found a connection to blood in the human body.
I often fell gullible to the idea that the painter's trade stands in antithesis to the writer's, with the brushwork springing from the artist's own experiences and observations. Being omniscient, he saw humanity's perpetual self-design, reformation, beautification and construction; possession, nurturing, and expansion of inner expectations; indulgence in efficient hallucinations; vision of moons illuminating upon all skeletal forms and fangs emerging from desiccated gums. The painter twisted stories into metamorphosis of portraits, then he takes a back step in utter silence.
