80年代的某大學食堂，人很多，學生們擁擠著排隊買飯，這時有個痞了痞氣的小伙子端著剛打的飯慌慌張張地往外走，迎面撞在一個女生的身上，那女生漂亮的連衣裙被菜湯灑了一身，“你他媽怎么搞的！老子剛買的雞塊！”那小子很心疼灑在地上的菜，一邊罵著一邊往外走，那女生哭了……這時有一只手攔住了那個男生，“去，給人家道個歉！”“我，我要是不去呢？”“那我就揍你！”那小子猶豫了一下，然后還是去給那個女生賠了不是。
　　這伸手攔人的就是占山。
　　這不是武打片中的片斷，這是生活中的真事兒。路見不平，拔刀相助是占山的性格。
　　占山性情中的豪爽痛快影響著周圍的人，很多的朋友因有了占山這樣的哥們兒，性格中的率真與憨暢得到了極大的張揚，這使每個人的生活狀態增加了很多痛快和歡愉，驅走了那么多的消極和悲觀。我在遇到困難時總是想起占山說的一句話—“這算個屁！”這是一種承受力，也是一種胸懷。有這樣一個朋友，你不會覺得孤單和無助。
　　占山的情感是真誠的，記得有一個哥們兒剛離婚，我們把這喝醉的朋友在那間租來的簡陋的房中安排好，剛一出門占山已是淚流滿面。為朋友的傷感而悲，為朋友的愉快而喜，他就是這樣的人。
占山做事的態度是極端認真和投入的，他今天的成績是他做事態度的必然結果。他精力充沛，每天坐在畫前十多個小時，這不是每個人都能做到的。面對作品，他完成每個細節的認真態度和驚人的勞動投入足以讓人服氣了！
　　有著豪爽樂觀的性格，真誠細膩的詩人般的情感，認真投入的做事態度，具備這些品格，不能不說他有著驚人的人格魅力。
　　占山是我最好的哥們兒，這是我最值得吹的事兒！

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,
Li Guijun
