Acheng's novels show the traditional culture of the nation. In the practical sense of excavating the national spirit, Chess King is very powerful and infectious. In Chess King, the author did not set more life content and personality components for the hero, but highlighted his eating and playing chess. Wang Yisheng's image is relatively simple. His experience in the novel can be divided into two periods. The previous period was his spiritual establishment period. Because of his poor family, he never has enough to eat, so the whole meaning of survival is focused on? Eat? In fact, I was forced to bear the special feeling of hunger. For this kind of life, he has no possibility of getting rid of it except to endure it, and he can only play chess for a short time? Freedom? . In Wang Yisheng's later period, eating no longer posed a threat to him. The contradiction between eating and playing chess was solved, but his spirit was more empty. He completed his arduous journey in his spiritual world by playing chess, thus bearing unprecedented loneliness and sorrow. Wang Yisheng's final state is brilliant, but this glory itself is contained in the tragedy of history. Here, the author actually intends to symbolize the path of national spirit with a person's spiritual path and hint at the historical fate of traditional culture with a person's fate. This is also the basic point of Acheng's creative consciousness. (1 points)

The characters in Acheng's novels always try to keep inner peace and freedom, and they are happy with the situation, which is both broad-minded and detached from Taoism and persistent and firm from Confucianism. This kind of emotion is particularly prominent in Chess King. Acheng often keeps the background of his novels in silence, which constitutes a harmonious unity with the spiritual temperament of the characters and the leisurely rhythm of the author. Therefore, the basic structure of his novels implies the cultural spirit of China. (1 points)
