Although this movie is no stranger to everyone, and it was also a sensation in the country at the time, this movie makes people firmly remember one of the protagonists, his name is Pan Dongzi. In fact, Pan Dongzi still has a prototype in our lives. We see Pan Dongzi, whose prototype is Xu Guang, the eldest son of the legendary general Xu Shiyou. Time was born to Xu Shiyou and his wife, the only surviving son, Xu Shiyou is a famous legendary general in everyone's mind, although Xu Guang does not have the earth-shattering story of his father, but his life is also full of legends.
In 1932, when the Eyu-Anhui base area was lost, Xu Shiyou followed the Red Fourth Front army from Dabie Mountain to Sichuan and Shaanxi, when Xu Guang was not yet three years old, and could only live a turbulent and displaced life with his grandparents. It was not until he was 19 years old that he was reunited with his father again, after all, his father was a great general, so he followed the troops to learn, became the first batch of naval officers in China's army after the founding of the Country, and he also worked in the army, Xu Shiyou's mother often came from his hometown to visit his son and grandson. Xu Shiyou also repeatedly advised his old mother to stay in the army, but the old man insisted on returning to his hometown, so Xu Shiyou talked to Xu Guang, hoping that Xu Guang could replace himself and perform filial piety to his mother.
After all, he has been outside for many years, and his guilt for his mother is very deep, in 1965, Xu Guang gave up his position in the Navy and returned to his hometown, until his death, where he lived was a 70-square-meter old house. It is reasonable to say that having such an identity, such a status, wanting a big house is a common thing, even in his hometown, building a big house can be achieved, but he did not do it, until the media exposed, everyone did not know, the original Xu Guang is a low-key person. It was only from a warrior monk of the Shaolin Temple to the road of revolution, he was a legendary general, and Xu Guang returned to his hometown from the revolutionary base area, through the study of naval officers, the story of the two of them is like one legend after another.
Xu Shiyou is a great filial piety, after 28 years of leaving his hometown, he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives again, once knelt on the ground, holding his mother's leg and crying bitterly, and everyone present was in tears when they saw this scene. Xu Guang's eldest son Xu Daokun graduated from high school in 1978, he had a dream to become a soldier since he was a child, but Xu Guang rejected his son's wish to become a soldier, although the second son went to become a soldier, but he was demobilized in a few years, and the troops who joined the army were not Xu Shiyou's subordinate troops, and now the two sons are doing ordinary work in the county town and living an ordinary life.
It is reasonable to say that with such an identity and such a status, it is still very easy to get a good position, but Xu Guang has chosen to be a clean and low-key person with two sleeves. He has always lived in a small house of only 70 square meters where he was born, his deeds have touched generations of people, he is a noble person, but also a pure person, he is like a shining star, always illuminating the direction of our progress, spurring us, to be a useful person to society.
