author:China News Network

Set in Shanghai in the early 1930s, the spy drama "The Forerunner" is being broadcast simultaneously on Beijing Satellite TV, iQiyi, and Tencent Video, and the drama has repeatedly appeared in Zhang Yu Xie Bainaganhong, who was already popular on the beach at that time, and the "highlights" such as:

【Episode 3】Zhang Yu Xie Baina of Bier's foreign firm

Ma Tianmu, an underground worker who was hired as the manager of the freight department of Bier&M, signed a contract with the boss Biel, and on the coffee table between their seats was placed a bottle of Zhang Yu Xie Bai Na dry red that had been opened, and the wine label pattern and bottle shape system were completely restored to the first generation of Zhang Yu Xie Bai Na.

Attentive viewers may notice that in many scenes of "The Forerunner", the shelves of Bier Foreign Firm are also filled with Zhang Yu Xie Baina.

In fact, during the Republic of China period, Zhang Yu Xie Baina's main target consumer group was precisely foreigners who worked and lived in Shanghai. At least from the 1935 Shanghai English newspapers North China Daily News and the China Press published Zhang Yulao's advertisements, it can be known that David Schkolnik & Sons, located at 505 Henan Road in shanghai's public concession, was selling Zhang Yu Xie Baina, a wine called "claret" at the time, which was a dry red English name in Bordeaux. Zhang Bishi, the founder of Zhangyu Company, wrote the "Outline of Planting Grapes and Making Wine" written in the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu (1898) and translated it as "Ge Di Le".

【Episode 5】The "Zhangyu Wine" sign appeared on the street

When Ma Tianmu drove to the Hujiang Apartment in Huajie, he passed by a shop with a "Zhangyu Wine" sign hanging in front of it, which may just be a sales point for Zhangyu wine.

In the early 1930s, the Shanghai distributor of Zhangyu Company was Qianyuyuan Company at No. 2 Yong'an Fang in the French Concession; in 1936, Zhangyu Company set up a distribution office in Shanghai at No. 20 Jing'an Temple Road, which was then part of the public concession.

In addition, the "Zhangyu Wine" signboard that appears in "The Forerunner" also has the English name of Zhangyu Company, but it is spelled "zhangyu". In fact, the English name of Zhangyu Company since its founding in 1892 has been "changyu" in the Wittoma style, which was later connected to "changyu". Similarly, Tsinghua University still uses the Wittoma pinyin "qinghua" instead of "qinghua".

【Episode 6】"This bowl of wine, respect for Huangpu, respect for the Northern Expedition"

Tang Xianping, director of the police station's investigation department, invited Ma Tianmu, an old classmate of the Whampoa Military Academy and an old comrade-in-arms during the Northern Expedition, to eat raw fried buns together, and on the table were two bottles of Zhang Yu Xie BaiNa dry red, and Ma Tianmu sighed: "When our brothers were in the Northern Expedition, they made a special appointment, and after winning the battle, they came here to celebrate the feast, drink good red wine, and eat the best raw fried. ”

Although there were only two of them, Tang Xianping opened more than a dozen large bowls, poured wine for the brothers who died in the "Songjiang Blood Battle", and then picked up the bowl and proposed with a cold look: "This bowl of wine, respect Huangpu, respect the Northern Expedition." ”

There is no need to pay attention to the goblet here, war has no floral and fruity aroma, only the smell of gun smoke and blood, and it is common to drink wine in large bowls, sometimes even only military helmets can be used as a container for drinking or drinking water.

Episode 15: Zhang Yu Xie BaiNa at Bradini's birthday party

Food and drinks for the French Concession Patrol House Police Inspector Blatini's birthday party were procured by Bierle & Co. At the birthday party, Ma Tianmu took a bottle of Zhang Yu Xie BaiNa dry red and said to Brattini: "Today this red wine is also specially prepared for your birthday party, I don't know if you like it or not." Bradini shook his glass, leaned close to his nose and sniffed it, and said with satisfaction, "It's delicious." ”

It is worth mentioning that in the sixth episode of "The Forerunner", Ma Tianmu also sent a bottle of 1921 Tang Périnon champagne to Fan Yiting, the inspector general of the French Concession Patrol House, and Fan Yiting took this bottle of wine as a birthday gift to Brattini. This wine is named after the inventor of champagne, dom perignon, in 1939, the second issue of the "Brewing Magazine" sponsored by Zhang Yu Company once published a portrait of the priest dom perignon, entitled "The Inventor of Champs - Priest Berry Rong", "Champapernne (Champagne), Berry Rong is dom perignon (Tang Peirinon), which is probably the earliest historical document that let Chinese know Tang Perignon.

"The Walker" is another hardcore spy drama after "Rebel" this year, and "Rebel" has also appeared in Zhang Yu Xie Bai Na Dry Red, although there is no bottle, but there is a wine name: in the seventh episode of "Rebel", Lin Nansheng, a novice novice in the Shanghai district of the Fuxing Society Secret Service, hesitates in holding the menu in the Western restaurant, and the dancer Lan Xinjie, who is full of style, skillfully instructs the waiter: "Two Brion steaks - five points cooked, two mushroom soups, two cups of Xie Bai Na." ”

From "Rebel" to "The Forerunner", spy dramas set in Shanghai in the 1930s frequently appeared in Zhang Yu Xie Bai Na Gan Hong, which fully reflected the popularity of Zhang Yu Xie Bai Na Gan Hong at that time. (Chen Yaoming)
