　　近年来，中华文化“走出去”的影响力不断扩大，在全球文化多元化发展日益兴盛的背景下，中国文化译研网（CCTSS）联合中国作家协会《小说选刊》杂志社，启动“新世纪中国当代作家、作品海外传播数据库”项目，将100位中国当代优秀作家的简介、代表作品以及展示作家风采的短视频翻译为10种语言，集结成1000张中国作家名片向全球推介。千张“作家名片”将鲜明地向世界宣告：我是中国作家，我在进行中国创作。

　　此种形式和规模是中国故事走向世界的一大创新，会让世界更加全面、客观、公正地了解中国优秀作家作品，同时也是打通中国文化走向世界的“最后一公里”。

　　田耳，男，本名田永，1976年10月生于湖南凤凰县。现供职于广西大学君武文化研究院，并为江苏作协合同制作家。2000年开始发表小说作品。迄今已在《人民文学》《收获》《联合文学》《中国作家》《钟山》《花城》《作家》《芙蓉》《天涯》等文学期刊发表小说六十余篇，计两百万字，其中长篇小说三部、中篇小说二十部。作品多次被各种选刊、年选转载。曾获各种文学奖项十余次。 

　　田耳的作品被认为具有现实主义风格，但是在写实的表象之下，田耳一直想指向生活中最幽暗和隐秘的一面。他笔下的人物通常都是亦正亦邪的，被评论家认为是“有齐物之想，而无善恶之分”。虽然他的作品最终都在不同程度地指向对人性和存在的追问，但角度不一，手法各异，总能给人新鲜的阅读欲望。

　　短篇《衣钵》讲述了大学生李可毕业前，父亲无力为他找到实习单位，就让他跟着自己学当村长与道士。李可勉强跟从父亲实习，但慢慢感觉到一位乡村道士的重要。经过道士入行仪式以后，李可主持的第一个丧堂，竟是自己意外死亡的父亲。中篇《一个人张灯结彩》书写了出租车司机于心亮要照顾一大家人，最不省心的是自己哑巴妹妹于心慧，他想把妹妹介绍给五十多岁的丧妻的警察，妹妹却已心有所属，与无业青年钢渣相恋。钢渣知道于心慧的难处，有心为她做些什么，苦于自己两手空空。钢渣便伙同好友皮绊，想制造炸弹抢劫，无奈两人文化低浅技艺生疏，一颗炸弹怎么也造不出来。最后钢渣邀皮绊夜里去抢劫出租车司机，谁知他们抢的竟然是为了多赚钱半夜出车的于心亮，于心亮拼命反抗，但不幸被杀害。老黄破获此案，钢渣得知自己杀死的竟是于心慧的哥哥，也悔恨万分。知道自己已无法见到于心慧，钢渣请老黄代自己赴与于心慧的除夕之约。除夕之夜，于心慧在山顶的理发馆外挂起灯笼，等待心上人的到来，老黄远远地站立等候，搞不清自己该不该走进去。长篇《天体悬浮》主要讲述符启明和丁一腾是基层派出所两名辅警，性格迥异，一个天资聪颖，一个随遇而安，却成为最好的朋友，一同出警一同追女孩一同计划着如何发财。符的能力突出，在刑侦破案上具有惊人天赋，得到领导重用，他也有意无意拉着丁一腾一块干活，将自己破案时的经验悉数传授。因派出所唯一的一个转正名额，两人闹翻，但最后都离开派出所，各谋新路。多年后符启明成为成功人士，丁一腾摸爬滚打艰难地成为一名律师，一起案件，两人再次相逢，兄弟情谊、利害取舍让丁一腾纠结万分……

　　Tian Er’s works are considered to have a style of realism， but under a realistic representation， Tian Er has always wanted to point to the darkest and most hidden aspects in life. The characters in his books are usually both good and evil， as critics say： “There is an ideal state， but there is no distinction between good and evil.” Although his works ultimately point to different degrees in the question of human nature and existence， the angles are different and the techniques are different， always giving people fresh reading desires.

　　The short story Legacy tells of the undergraduate Li Ke and his father’s inability to find an internship for him before he graduates. The father then asks him to follow him to learn how to become a village chief and Taoist priest. Li Ke reluctantly follows his father’s internship， but slowly feels the importance of being a village priest. After the entrance ceremony of Taoist priests， the first funeral that Li Ke presides over is actually that of his own father， who dies unexpectedly.
