In a recent blog post, well-known Chinese author and satirist Han Han adamantly denied accusations that some of his famous works were ghostwritten.

Han's reputation was blemished by a blogger named "Maitian" (an online alias translated as "wheat-land") on Sina.com.cn. The blogger disputed the originality of Han's works, accusing the post-80s author of hiring people to write for him.

According to Maitian, Han finished most of his writings at night while he racing his car in the daytime. Therefore, he questioned how a person could be so energetic and concluded that most of his writings were probably ghostwritten.

He hence presumed Han's first ghostwriter was his father Han Renjun, who he alleged might have been involved in the writer's first novel "Triple Door". Han also earned praise by influential publisher Lu Jinbo, which contributed to his success. Han responded furiously to the accusation on his blog on Jan. 16.

"As a writer, (the accusation) goes beyond my bottom line", Han wrote on his blog. "I wrote every word myself."

"Anybody who could show any evidence to prove the ghostwriting as they suspected, I would like to reward them with 20 million yuan (US$3.17 million), stop writing and give all my copyrights from the published books to the accusers."

Even though Han registered his outrage to the ghostwriting claim, he by no means forgot his characteristic sense of humor. He responded to the questioning of his ability to write at nights, especially in the days when he drove race cars. "Maybe you will pant heavily when raise a finger to press the button of elevator, but somebody might feel good even after a 10,000-meter marathon," Han wrote in his blog. "So I suggest the friend do more exercise, maybe just walking out of your dim, damp corner into the sunshine will do you good." He finished the sarcastic sentence by saying: "Maybe someday, you will be able to write until 1:00 AM, like me."

Han's blog post was published simultaneously with his father's. The senior Han asserted in his blog that his son's writing style was unique and hard to emulate. "There is no other person in China who can write the way Han Han writes, if there is, I'd like to take him as my son," the father said, "Farmers will immediately distinguish the grass from wheat when it peeps up from the soil."

The junior Han, who rose to fame with his talented submission to a new-concept writing competition for high-school students in Shanghai in 2000, is famous for his rebellious streak. He failed his college entrance exams and became a freelance writer and car racer afterwards. He has been involved in numerous verbal arguments with prominent cultural figures, such as the musician Gao Xiaosong.

素以調侃和不羈的黑色幽默聞名的中國名作家韓寒，最近在其博客上 對于針對他一些著作是槍手代寫的指控予以了堅決的否認。

一位網名為“麥田”的新浪博主對韓寒的聲譽進行了攻擊。他質疑韓寒的作品并非原創，并指控這位80后作家雇人寫作。

據麥田稱，韓寒的作品大多在他參加賽車比賽后的當天夜晚完成。因此，他質疑道，一個人怎么會精力過剩至如此，并因此下結論道，他的很多作品都有可能是別人代寫的。

該指控者推測韓寒父親韓仁均可能是他的第一位槍手， 據麥田推測，他父親可能參與了韓寒第一部小說《三重門》的寫作。此外，麥田認為韓寒還受到過出版界達人路金波的肯定，這對作家的成功有了一定的幫助。韓寒于1月16日對此在博客上予以了猛烈的抨擊。

“這（指責）已經觸犯我作為寫字人可以容忍的底線，”韓寒在他的博客中寫道。“我的每一個字都是我親手寫下的。”

韓寒說凡是有人列舉出有人代他寫作的，他愿“獎勵人民幣兩千萬，本人也愿就此封筆，并贈送給舉報人所有已出版的圖書版權。”

然而即便在怒斥代寫之訴時，韓寒也沒有忘記幽默一下。他回應對其晚間，尤其是在賽車期間寫作的質疑，說道：“也許你抬手摁電梯都喘，但有些人就是跑一萬米也輕松，”韓寒在他的博客中寫道。“愿這位朋友多鍛煉身體，哪怕是只從陰暗潮濕的角落里走出來多曬曬太陽對身體也有好處。”他繼而以這樣一句話結束這段諷刺：“也許終有一天，你也能像我一樣，寫到半夜一點鐘。”

在韓寒發表博客的同時，他的父親也發表了一篇。韓仁均在博客中斷言他兒子的寫作風格獨一無二，難以模仿。“韓寒的行文風格目前在中國找不出第二個，如果有，我愿認他作兒子！”韓父說道。“田里長的是麥是草，老農一看便知。”

韓寒成名于2000年在上海舉辦的高中生新概念作文大賽。后以叛逆聞名。在高考失利后他成為了獨立的作家和賽車手。他曾與包括高曉松在內的眾多文化名人間進行過口誅筆伐。
