The responses were sarcastic and mostly expressed discontent, and later spawned publications that nurtured more independence among writers.

In an introduction to Zhu Wen's short stories, translator Julia Lovell characterized his 'trademark narrative style' as "a loosely punctuated, first-person voice in which speech, both direct and indirect, run on within sentences of descriptive prose, designed to capture the unceremonious, free-flowing rhythms of action and dialogue in contemporary China."

As a writer, he was labelled as part of a 'newly-born generation' (xinshengdai) movement.
