Chen Qingyang's appearance of "sexual revelry" in "Golden Age" has always been the focus of heated discussion.
She is a high-achieving student, who has never engaged in "broken shoes", but inexplicably carries this insult;
She wants to prove her innocence, but because she is called by "great friendship", she leaves her legs again and again;
She indulged her body without feeling guilty, but after being slapped on the buttocks twice by Wang Er, she felt deeply defiled and innocent;
She became a real "broken shoe", but never shy away from it, and was very cooperative and enjoyed the struggle and confessing materials.
In fact, behind Chen Qingyang's seemingly absurd attitude towards life, there is Wang Xiaobo's profound ideological connotation and artistic characteristics.
01, the search for the lack of physical morality

Chen Qingyang has outstanding physical conditions: "The chest is very plump, the waist is very thin, and the ass is round." In addition to this, her neck is slender and her face is beautiful."
But as a delegated zhiqing, this has brought her a lot of trouble - it is said to be a "broken shoe".
Because in the eyes of everyone, "a married woman should have a dark face and sagging breasts", while Chen Qingyang has "a black and white face, and her breasts are not sagging and towering".
And, although she was a doctor, the people who came to her were not really for medical treatment, they were all people who came to see her, to see her body.
Chen Qingyang can't stand this reputation, she has never stolen a man, why is it said that "broken shoes"? So she strongly wanted to prove herself, eager to be recognized by others and restore her reputation.
Until he met Wang Er, who really came to see the doctor instead of her body, Chen Qingyang felt that he was as upright as a clear stream.
Chasing after the place where Wang Er lived, Chen Qingyang wanted him to prove himself, but not wanted Wang Er not only could not help her prove it, but instead proposed the concept of "great friendship", kidnapped the relationship between the two, and tried his best to pay for each other, including the body, like a life and death knot.
And since it can't be proved that it is not a broken shoe, instead of losing money on the reputation, it is better to steal the man. Under Wang Er's bandit logic, Chen Qingyang was at a loss for a moment and agreed to Wang Er's request for "great friendship". But in her heart, she was not very willing.
The first time in houshan "Dun Great Friendship", Wang Er felt very depressed, "she did not say a word, her head rested on her arms, and looked at me thoughtfully, so from beginning to end it was me alone in the performance", after finishing the matter, Wang Er was both angry and frustrated.
In the countless "Great Friendships of Dun" later, Chen Qingyang has always been less enthusiastic, and she often "spreads her hands flat, bites her lower lip with her teeth, and does not make a sound." She didn't even want to call out in front of Wang Er, "There is no man in the world who can make her willing to call out in front of him."
At this time, Chen Qingyang's original intention was only to find the identity of physical morality and satisfy the promise of "great friendship", which is why he was so cold.
02, great friendship and physical resistance
As a married female doctor graduated from Beijing Medical University, Chen Qingyang is not a pure girl who cannot stand the test. She was well aware that towering breasts, fair skin, and pretty faces could not be identified with physical morality from jealous women and men full of lust.
Therefore, from the beginning of practicing the "great friendship" with Wang Er, Chen Qingyang gradually shifted from seeking the identity of physical morality to using the body to resist public prejudice and pursue self-balance.
Since you can't get rid of the reputation of "broken shoes", enjoy being a real "broken shoe". Chen Qingyang regarded Wang Er as his only friend, for the sake of "great friendship", but also for the right to resist the right to speak, simply release his desire and enjoy the real sense of existence in the surging passion.
At that time, Chen Qingyang said: "When she went to the mountains to look for me, she climbed over the bare hills. The wind blew in from under her clothes and blew through her sexually sensitive bands, and the sexual desire she felt at that time was as uncertain as the wind. It spreads out like the wind in the mountains. ”
When the matter was revealed and criticized, Chen Qingyang's bound curves were exposed, and the men of several teams around her ran to admire, and she was always very cooperative, thinking that she should do everything she wanted, and the desires of those men had nothing to do with her.
She is very proud of this, and said that it is the most beautiful one in the local batch of broken shoes. Moreover, "every time I had a bad fight, I was sexually aroused." ...... In the farm, after each struggle, Chen Qingyang also asked for Dun's great friendship. Chen Qingyang said that at that moment she felt like a gift box, opening the package. So she was overjoyed, and she was finally relieved of all her troubles. ”
When asked to write confession materials, she not only did not escape the voyeurism of the leader, but reached an agreement with Wang Er to cater to the intention, so that Wang Er could present the process of "Dun Great Friendship" truthfully. She admitted to leaving her legs apart and was more honest in love with Wang Er's sins. After the materials were red-faced with the leaders and the people's security team, they were no longer allowed to write.
All this seems absurd, but in fact, Chen Qingyang gradually recognized the reality of "describing people who are not broken shoes as broken shoes, and letting go of the real broken shoes", frankly accepting the devastation of life, enjoying the physical pleasure of sadomasochism in the exile of the self, so as to prove his true existence, and try to resist and subvert the oppression of power.
03, the emotional redemption of love and desire
The suffering of reality has become very helpless for Chen Qingyang to survive. In the process of interacting with Wang Er, she felt the vitality and passion of life, and became more and more dependent on the emotional redemption brought by Wang Er.
At first, he left his legs for the sake of "great friendship", Chen Qingyang coped with things, so that Wang Er felt that she was not frigid. At this point she doesn't think she's wrong, because the original sin is the reputation of "broken shoes" that she wants to get rid of.
Therefore, although Chen Qingyang wanted to call out in the depths of her heart every time "Dun Great Friendship", she was not happy, she did not want to fall in love with anyone. Even when Wang Er kissed the heart of her foot, a pungent feeling drilled into her heart, and she had to not react.
However, as the two continued to develop deeper, when Wang Er carried her across the river, he inadvertently slapped her on the buttocks twice, but Chen Qingyang "felt weak and paralyzed", and at that moment she found that she had fallen in love with Wang Er.
Later, when she and Wang Er "Dun Great Friendship", the nature is different, she is obsessed with the satisfaction of physical desires, even if "a light rub on the navel can not sustain herself", and the awakening of love makes her once sexually passionate pursuit of desire, producing a sense of guilt. That is, as Wang Er said, Chen Qingyang believes that falling in love with Wang Er at the moment of patting her ass is "completely defiling her innocence."
In fact, it is not so much that Wang Er's inadvertent actions have stimulated Chen Qingyang's love, but rather that some of Wang Er's unconscious gentleness has influenced her imperceptibly, and it also fits her desire to be loved. Therefore, I felt emotional pity in the action of kissing the heart of the foot, rubbing the navel, and patting the ass.
Moreover, after many years have passed, the two have met, and Chen Qingyang still retains the marriage certificate at that time. When she "made a great friendship" again, she no longer had a sense of guilt, because it was a physical intercourse with love, even if it was against moral norms, but it was very pleasant in her heart.
Chen Qingyang's process of physical feelings and emotional changes, from the passive of following the "great friendship", to the carnival of turning to desire, and finally to the emotional redemption of love and desire, is intertwined with Wang Xiaobo's complex guilt and innocence debate in the environment of the times. We can't read it as a color novel, otherwise it will be difficult for you to understand Wang Xiaobo's value thinking in the dilemma of reason and desire. And this is the most attractive place of "Golden Age".
04, write at the end
"Lifestyle is like a long story, or like a labyrinth that makes people lose. Any negative lifestyle has a lot of messy details that make it interesting. Man sinks in this taste, fundamentally forgetting that this life needs to be changed. ”
