In Zhang Liangze's speech, he took out the "Contribution to Taiwan Literature" written by Zhong Yiren, the former captain of the "27th Army" who died a few days ago. He said that there were two catastrophes in the history of modern Taiwan literature. The first was the 228 incident. Many Taiwanese For fear of being caught, writers burned the materials they had collected all their lives and the books they brought back from overseas, causing a major fault in Taiwanese literature, and related research could not find materials; the second time is happening now, when computers and mobile phones replace paper In this era, if we don't quickly set up a park to fully preserve the materials of these predecessors, the second cultural fault will soon be caused.

Therefore, I hope that after the establishment of the Association, there will be a formal organization to facilitate the division of labor and cooperation, and work hard to build the spiritual fortress of Taiwanese people.

People from the literary circles who participated in the meeting then planted neem seeds, saplings or cuttings in potted plants, and then pinned their literary works on the saplings and chanted to the saplings, echoing the words of Taiwanese writer Ye Shitao, "If there is no land, where is the land?" There is literature" and "Writers are the salt of the earth".

Shang Yufang said that the saplings cultivated by these writers will be planted in every corner that is willing to be associated with literature, bringing literature and trees into the lives and spaces of contemporary Taiwanese, and will be transplanted after the Taiwan Literary National Park is established. to the park.
