Characteristics of yam egg pie:

Like many revolutionary writers in China, the creative method of Shanyao Egg School naturally adopts revolutionary realism. However, realism, which is also a revolution, is different not only from society and times, but also from environment and people.

Shanxi writers, represented by Zhao Shuli, adopt revolutionary realism in their creative methods, which is characterized by emphasizing on grasping the problems (contradictions in real life) that need to be solved urgently in the revolutionary process, that is, in all work, and giving them prompt and timely reflection to help solve the problems as soon as possible.
