Gao Qiqiang and Su Dongpo in "Crazy" each treat the "enemy"

Author of this article: Love Water

For more than ten days, I have been chasing "Crazy". Now, every day is still in the second brush and three brushes.

It's just that last night, I accidentally watched a small video and was instantly drunk. A little boy, lying in the bed, watching the finale of "Crazy", Gao Qiqiang's scene in prison. The little boy was about ten years old, and while watching, he cried tears, and his mouth was still chanting, "I don't want you to die, I want to die for you."

Obviously, Gao Qiqiang in the finale, even if he cuts a thousand times, is not enough to eliminate his sins. Such a heinous person, in the eyes of the little boy, is indeed a great hero who is willing to die for him.

After watching this video for a few seconds, I snorted. If a good-looking TV series blurs children's outlook on life and values, what is the practical significance of such a TV series?

Could it be that the drama "Crazy" is intended to guide our children to do Gao Qiqiang?

All right. It's just a blind view. Like, recently, it was proposed to remove "Water Margin" from the text. This is not something that we little citizens consider.

I watched the first episode of "Crazy" carefully several times. I can fully understand the original intention of the creator. Gao Qiqiang is a very good person, kind and loyal, hardworking and down-to-earth. How did a good person who relied on self-labor to provide for his younger siblings transform into a devil-like evil person?

The TV series expresses it very hastily, attributing all this to the evil forces represented by Tang Xiaolong and Tang Xiaohu. It was under the close pressure of these two people step by step that the good man was forced to become the boss of the underworld.

Does this possibility exist?

The director is still very smart. He designed a scene for Gao Qiqiang and An Xin to eat together, during which, speaking of reading, Gao Qiqiang said that he saw a text in the "Youth Digest" that said, how to imagine your enemies as your friends.

That's what he learned. In fact, he did the same. Tang Xiaolong and Tang Xiaohu, who had originally persecuted him, were both taken in by him as private horse boys. Whether it is Gong Kaijiang, Zhao Lidong, or Lao Mo, Gao Xiaochen, for Gao Qiqiang, everyone is just a stepping stone for him to achieve his personal goals. The plot of the TV series unfolds because of this.

When I was running today, when I was recalling this storyline, I suddenly remembered Su Dongpo, Su Shi, and Bachelor Su.

Gao Qiqiang, when facing the enemy head-on, is using various means to use the enemy for my own use. And Bachelor Su, how did he do it?

Su's first "enemy" was his brother-in-law and his own cousin. Su Dongpo had an older sister named Su Baniang (Su Xiaomei has always been a legend), married to his uncle's son Cheng Zhicai, and died shortly after marriage. Su Cheng's two families, therefore, turned against each other and have not interacted for decades.

After Bachelor Su was demoted to Huizhou, some ill-intentioned people in the imperial court specially arranged for Cheng Zhicai to be sent to Guangdong to do an official post specifically in charge of justice. However, Bachelor Su and his former brother-in-law let go of their previous suspicions and became their best friends. The most existing ruler of Bachelor Su is his correspondence with this first "enemy".

People who are familiar with Bachelor Su know this person Li Ding. The biggest initiator of the "Wutai Poetry Case" that everyone knows about is Li Ding. Li Ding, who was an imperial historian at that time, was a disciple of Wang Anshi. It was precisely because of his hollowing out mind and fabricating charges that caused Bachelor Su to be degraded to Huangzhou.

After leaving Huangzhou, Bachelor Su worked in Penglai, Shandong Province, for five days in Dengzhou Zhizhou, and was transferred to the imperial court. At that time, Li Ding served in Qingzhou. On the way back to Kaifeng, Bachelor Su specially went to Qingzhou to visit Li Ding, and the words "meeting each other were extremely happy", which were preserved in the "Su Shi Anthology".

Shen Kuo, the author of "Mengxi Pen Talks", was originally a friend of Bachelor Su. When Bachelor Su was serving as a Hangzhou general judge, Shen Kuo came to Hangzhou on business. In addition to the warm hospitality, Bachelor Su also handed over the original manuscript of his poems to Shen Kuo to read without reservation. Who knows, Shen Kuo secretly copied it down, and handed it over to Li Ding and those people. In other words, the initiator of the "Wutai poetry case" is the great scientist we are familiar with.

Later, when Bachelor Su was serving as Zhizhou in Hangzhou, Shen Kuo was trapped in Zhenjiang. According to historical records, the two "exchanged respects and greetings." That said, they were very close and still very good friends.

Regarding Zhang Wei, he can definitely be regarded as Su Dongpo's first "enemy". In the Northern Song Dynasty, for literati and doctors, exile to Hainan Island was a punishment second only to beheading and exterminating the tribe. Bachelor Su's innocent calamity, the operator behind the scenes, all came from Zhang Wei's handwriting. Once upon a time, Bachelor Su and Zhang Wei were close friends and good colleagues who could drink together at home. The son of the latter is also a junior disciple of Bachelor Su.

Later, Su Dongpo returned north from Danzhou to amnesty, but Zhang Wei was demoted to Leizhou, Guangxi. Bachelor Su's medical path is profound, and he wrote to Zhang Wei without reservation about the precautions he had experienced in the south and the prescriptions he should take.

When I code these words on my phone, I always feel a chill in my back. Comparing a character like "Gao Qiqiang" with Bachelor Su, for me, this is almost equivalent to slandering Buddha.

Bachelor Su is my religion, and I cannot have the subjective will to blaspheme. The reason for this comparison is also a re-reflection on one's own inner mood.

What is the so-called enemy?

The villain is long, and the gentleman is frank.
