#我眼中的实力派 #
The 1998 version of the TV series "Water Margin" in addition to the good Han song of "the big river flows east" was remembered by the public, but also Song Jiang, played by teacher Li Xuejian, who was ridiculed for speaking in a somewhat lewd tone, has no heroic spirit, does not speak hard enough, has a heavy bureaucratic atmosphere, and so on. These comments have generally improved when Zhang Hanyu plays Song Jiang, but the audience still does not buy Song Jiang. In fact, Song Jiang's acting like this has nothing to do with Mr. Li Xuejian's acting skills.
Mao Zedong and Lu Xun both believed that the Water Margin was originally a story of a peasant rebel army going to the surrender faction, and that there must be a leader to surrender, so Song Jiang is of course a surrender faction among the surrender faction, or how can he be the leader? The capitulation faction here is not completely derogatory, and it is not the same as the national crisis during the Anti-Japanese War. In the Song Dynasty, the so-called surrender was also to fall to the official government and return to the regular ranks, not to sell the country for glory. But do not expect that at that time Song Jiang and others already had bourgeois or even socialist ideas, knew that they wanted to establish a democratic government, and knew that they would mobilize the proletariat to rise up and seize state power. At that time, there were only two ways out for Song Jiang and others, Zhao'an or cutting the emperor like Fang La.
In fact, what about calling an emperor like Fang La? The greatest extent is nothing more than to be a grass king, waiting to be destroyed by the Song army when he is old and weak, and finally end up in disgrace and destroy the Nine Races. Song Jiang was the director of the county government office, and knew that death is small, fame is great, and in the future, children and grandchildren will have an anti-thief ancestor, not only can not read, can not be an official, even can not be a squire (Song Jiang has no ability to foresee, knows that the Northern Song Dynasty will soon die). So everywhere he goes, he tells his brothers that the falling grass is temporary, and we can still be civil servants in the future!
But his brothers were divided into two factions, wanting to be civil servants and not wanting to be civil servants, so Song Jiang's recruitment in the later period mainly revolved around the former type of people. Can he be blamed for this? No. In that era, every normal man would agree with Song Jiang, worthy of the ancestors and ancestors at the top, and conspirated for the brothers below, and the dead were posthumously regarded as martyrs, and those who were big brothers could do this to this extent, what was there to complain about?
Of course. Li Xuejian's Song Jiang is not likable, because Song Jiang itself should not be likable. The emperor never liked the rebels, the peasants never liked the robbers, the readers never liked the murderer, the officials never liked their black-and-white colleagues, these Song Jiang all occupied, who would like it? No one will like it no matter how you act, because it is these people who watch the Water Margin and listen to the Water Margin.
