[散文·杂文] 好友占山

　　80年代的某大学食堂，人很多，学生们拥挤着排队买饭，这时有个痞了痞气的小伙子端着刚打的饭慌慌张张地往外走，迎面撞在一个女生的身上，那女生漂亮的连衣裙被菜汤洒了一身，“你他妈怎么搞的！老子刚买的鸡块！”那小子很心疼洒在地上的菜，一边骂着一边往外走，那女生哭了……这时有一只手拦住了那个男生，“去，给人家道个歉！”“我，我要是不去呢？”“那我就揍你！”那小子犹豫了一下，然后还是去给那个女生赔了不是。
　　这伸手拦人的就是占山。
　　这不是武打片中的片断，这是生活中的真事儿。路见不平，拔刀相助是占山的性格。
　　占山性情中的豪爽痛快影响着周围的人，很多的朋友因有了占山这样的哥们儿，性格中的率真与憨畅得到了极大的张扬，这使每个人的生活状态增加了很多痛快和欢愉，驱走了那么多的消极和悲观。我在遇到困难时总是想起占山说的一句话—“这算个屁！”这是一种承受力，也是一种胸怀。有这样一个朋友，你不会觉得孤单和无助。
　　占山的情感是真诚的，记得有一个哥们儿刚离婚，我们把这喝醉的朋友在那间租来的简陋的房中安排好，刚一出门占山已是泪流满面。为朋友的伤感而悲，为朋友的愉快而喜，他就是这样的人。
占山做事的态度是极端认真和投入的，他今天的成绩是他做事态度的必然结果。他精力充沛，每天坐在画前十多个小时，这不是每个人都能做到的。面对作品，他完成每个细节的认真态度和惊人的劳动投入足以让人服气了！
　　有着豪爽乐观的性格，真诚细腻的诗人般的情感，认真投入的做事态度，具备这些品格，不能不说他有着惊人的人格魅力。
　　占山是我最好的哥们儿，这是我最值得吹的事儿！

My Best Friend Zhan Shan
　　It was in the 1980's. The university cafeteria was very crowded and students were lining up to buy their meals. A young rogue-like fellow was walking toward outside with the meal he had just got and bumped into a female student. Her pretty one-piece dress was all splashed with vegetable soup. "What the hell is it? The chicken nugget I've just got!" The fellow was distressed with the meal that was splashed on the floor and he scolded while walking outside, leaving the girl crying...At this moment someone blocked his way. "Go! Give the girl an apology!" "What if I don't?" "Then I'll punch you!" That fellow hesitated, and finally apologized to the girl.
　　The one who blocked the fellow was Zhan Shan.
　　This is not a scene in a kung fu movie, this is a real life anecdote. Always lend a helping hand is the character of Zhan Shan.
　　Zhan Shan's bold and straightforward personalities influence the people around him. Many friends' sincere and straightforward dispositions are greatly expanded because they have Jain Shan as a friend. This brings a lot of happiness and mirth to everyone's life and drives out gloominess and pessimism. Whenever I encounter difficulties, I always remember Zhan Shan's saying "I won't give it a damn!" He has profound endurance as well as a great mind. With a friend like this, you won't feel lonely and helpless.
　　Zhan Shan's emotions are genuine. I remember once our friend who had just been divorced got drunk and we settled him in his basic rented room. As soon as we had left, Zhan Shan's tears were streaming down his face. He feels sad about the grief of friends and he feels happy about the joy of friends. Zhan Shan is such a person.
　　Because of his very earnest and devoted personalities, his present achievement is the predictable outcome of his working attitude. He is energetic and can sit before his painting for over 10 hours. This is something which not everyone can achieve. When facing his work, his earnest manner in completing every detail and his astonishing devotion definitely convince us all!
　　With his straightforward and optimistic dispositions, a poet's sincere and exquisite emotions, earnest devotion of his working manner, we must say he has astonishingly charming personalities.
　　Zhan Shan is my best friend, and this is something that I find it most worthy of bragging!
His good friend,
