光阴似箭，仿佛转眼之间，金庸先生已逝世一周年了。“有的人死了，他还活着。”（臧克家《有的人》）金庸先生就是这种活在人们心中的人，他活在故乡的大地上，活在香江的云水间，活在金庸迷的江湖中，活在亲朋好友的记忆里。

　　我与金庸先生相识二十多载，特别是1999年7月起在浙大人文学院有幸与先生共事6年，得以近距离亲近先生，聆听教诲。此时此刻，昔日与先生交往的情景，又清晰地浮现在眼前。

作为院长，尽职尽力

　　1999年3月26日，四校合并后的新浙江大学聘任金庸先生为人文学院院长。7月8日，学校就颁发了成立文件，并任命我为人文学院党委书记。能与金庸先生这样蜚声中外的著名学者、文学家共事，人文学院班子的成员们都欢欣鼓舞。但我个人的内心却也颇有些不安，虽然此前已在1994年4月原杭州大学聘请金庸先生为名誉教授时已与先生相识，但尚未深知，担心在具体工作中不知是否好相处。但很快，金庸先生就以他谦谦君子的平易近人赢得了众人之心，更以他对家乡、对浙大、对教育事业的热忱和切实的行动赢得了大家发自内心的敬佩和尊重。

　　新浙大在成立之初，提出要把浙江大学创建成一所世界一流的综合型、研究型、创新型大学的奋斗目标。经过精心的准备后，1999年10月28日，金庸院长亲自主持召开了浙江大学人文学科建设和发展大型研讨会。这次研讨会层次高、规模大，与会专家为浙江大学人文学科的建设发展提出了许多宝贵中肯的意见，不但使浙大人文学科进一步明确了今后发展的重点和思路，也提升了浙大文科在国内学术界的影响力和美誉度，提振了人文社科类师生勇创一流的信心与勇气。这是金庸出任人文学院院长后的第一个大动作，也是漂亮的第一仗。这次会议后，学校启动了人文社会科学“强所、名师、精品”建设计划。

　　2002年初，作为浙大人文学院院长的金庸和经济学院名誉院长查济民又出面邀请了国内外的百余名专家学者，由浙江大学于2002年5月在杭州主办了“新经济条件下的生存环境与中华文化”国际研讨会。3天会议期间，专家学者作了80余场学术报告，场场爆满，取得了很好效果。金庸院长不但提交了题为《全球经济与人文因素》的论文，还亲自主编了该次会议的论文集《新经济条件下的生存环境与中华文化》。

感怀师恩，重情重义

　　金庸先生的青少年时期正值日寇侵华、国难当头，他的求学之路也是颠沛流离、异常艰辛，从家乡海宁、嘉兴，到杭州、丽水、衢州，乃至山城重庆，都留下了金庸求学的足迹。金庸先生对他曾经求学的学校和老师都一直怀着深深的感恩之心。

　　2004年10月27日，金庸先生回到了他阔别60多年、魂牵梦萦的母校衢州一中。《衢州日报》副总编、高级记者许彤以生动形象的文字记录了当时的场景：

　　金庸先生还题诗一首赠予母校：“温雅豪迈衢州人，同学少年若弟兄。六十年中常入梦，石梁静岩夜夜心。”并于诗后写道：“少年时负笈衢中，师长教诲，同学勉励，常自怀念。今访母校，见规模大张，日思昔日，不禁悲喜交集也。”

　　金庸先生的重情重义不仅是对待老师，对待母校，“滴水之恩，当涌泉相报”的中华民族的优良传统也体现在许多小事中。

　　浙大人文学院成立后，于1999年12月印发了一本学院简介。当时学院刚组建，经费很紧张。远在深圳的任前，是我们新闻系1988届的毕业生，他很关心母校，也是一个铁杆金庸小说迷。当他偶然了解到浙大人文学院需要编印一本学院简介后，便慷慨解囊，出资2万余元在深圳印刷出版了600本装帧精美的简介，并快递邮寄给人文学院。

　　半年后任前来电提起，不知能否请金庸先生为他的书画苑题写一副对联。当我和金庸先生提起这一请求时，金庸先生二话没说，爽快答应。

　　此时来杭，金庸院长先是召开人文学院联席会议，会后又给院部机关工作人员和师生们的金庸小说签名。由于金庸先生当晚还有活动，我们请他回宾馆休息。当我傍晚快7点时去电联系时，金庸先生秘书告诉我说，先生还在写那副对联，第一副不太满意，又写了一副，所以连晚饭还没有吃。我听了既惭愧不安，又为老先生这种一丝不苟和重情重义的精神而感动。这就是金庸先生所书之联为：“苕霅溪山吴苑画，潇湘烟雨楚天云。”此联现已成为任前书画苑的镇苑之宝。

　　有人说：活着的时候，读者就以亿来计算的作家，古今中外仅此一人，就是金庸。

　　从中国人的角度来看，金庸先生德高望重，94高龄，为人生旅途画上了一个圆满的句号，可谓了无遗憾。他的1000多万字的15部武侠小说及其所弘扬的为国为民的侠义精神，为国家和民族注入了希望，将熠熠生辉，进入中国和世界当代文学的殿堂。

　　元好问《论诗绝句》云：“论功若准平吴例，合著黄金铸子昂。”若以此语移誉先生对中国文化和武侠小说的贡献，当也毫不为过。

I first met Master Jin Yong about 20 years ago and we worked as colleagues for six years at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of Zhejiang University as of July 1999. What he said and what he did are still vivid in my memory.

On March 26, 1999, he was appointed as president of Faculty of Arts and Humanities of Zhejiang University after the four universities in Hangzhou merged into a new Zhejiang University. On July 8, I was appointed to be the secretary of the CPC committee of the Faculty. I felt both excited and slightly uneasy. I had met the master in April 1994 when he became an honorary professor at Hangzhou University. My worry was whether he and I could go along in our work together at the Faculty since I didn’t know him personally after all. He soon won the hearts of us. His love of his home province and of Zhejiang University was touching. And his dedication to his work was impressive. Shortly after the merge in 1998, Zhejiang University came up with an ambitious objective: it plans to build itself into a world-class comprehensive university of research and innovation. In response to this development strategy, Jin Yong organized and presided at a forum on October 28, 1999 on the developmental strategy of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. The forum was a sensational success. It not only gave birth to a long-term strategy for the Faculty but also enhanced the Faculty’s influence and reputation within the country’s higher education institutions. Shortly afterwards, the Faculty launched an action plan.

In May 2002, Jin Yong and Zha Jimin, a cousin of Jin Yong and honorary president of College of Economics of Zhejiang University, jointly organized an international symposium on the living environment and Chinese culture in the context of new economic conditions. At the three-day symposium, over 80 experts and scholars made presentations. Jin Yong submitted a paper. After the symposium, he acted as editor-in-chief and put together a collection of proceedings of the symposium.

The formative years of Jin Yong coincided with the years of war and chaos. His school education was disrupted frequently. The secondary schools and third schools where he received education were in Haining, Jiaxing, Hangzhou, Lishui, Quzhou and Chongqing. In his adult years, he still remembered his school years and felt deeply indebted to the schools and teachers. In October 2004, he revisited Quzhou No. 1 Middle School after a hiatus of 60 some years. The 81-year-old novelist and educator was warmly welcomed.

Shortly after the Faculty of Arts and Humanities came into being, we wanted to print a booklet for the faculty. It was in December 1999 and we were short of funds at that time. Ren Qian, an alumnus who graduated from Journalism Department in 1988 and who then lived in Shenzhen, learned about this problem by accident and offered to help us out. He paid 20,000 yuan for 600 copies which were printed in Shenzhen and delivered to us in Hangzhou. Half a year later, he called me to see if Jin Yong could write a couplet for him. It turned out that Ren Qian was a fan of Jin Yong’s Wuxia novels. At that time, Jin was in Hangzhou, running a tight work schedule. When I mentioned Ren’s request, Jin said okay without hesitation. Later that evening, I called his secretary for business and I learned that Jin was so busy with writing a couplet for Ren Qian that he didn’t have time for dinner yet. I was touched.

It is said that Jin Yong is a fiction writer of one kind: in his lifetime, he had more than 100 million readers. No one else at home and abroad has so many readers. He injected something special into literature.
