Introduction: Lu Xun's Literature and Times
In China at the beginning of the 20th century, social turmoil and ideological turmoil, it was against this historical background that Lu Xun (Zhou Shuren), a literary giant, profoundly depicted the vicissitudes of the times with his sharp brushstrokes. He is not only a literary genius, but also a witness and promoter of the times. Lu Xun's works, like a mirror, reflect the true face of society, awaken the sleeping people, and stimulate their desire for democracy and freedom.
However, Lu Xun's life was not only literary and intellectual brilliance. In his magnificent life journey, the family story is equally gripping. His two marriages, one is the traditional bondage, the other is the soul fit, and the relationship between him and his son Zhou Haiying is full of love and concern. Lu Xun's family story is not only a personal history, it is also a microcosm of the social changes in China at that time.
Lu Xun and Zhu An's marriage
In Lu Xun's life journey, his first marriage was undoubtedly an important turning point. This marriage with Zhu An was formed under the framework of traditional feudal etiquette, which is not only a product of the times, but also a microcosm of personal destiny. Zhu An, a typical traditional woman, whose life is completely bound by feudal rules, from small feet to illiterate, her whole life seems to be preset on a narrow track.
The marriage between Lu Xun and Zhu An is full of contradictions and incomprehension. Lu Xun, an avant-garde writer, longed for a lifetime with a partner who could understand him and connect with his heart. However, Juan was clearly unable to meet such a demand. Her existence, for Lu Xun, is more like a responsibility and burden, rather than a love partner.
In this marriage, Lu Xun's attitude is complicated. On the one hand, he felt unacceptable to Juan's lifestyle and ideology, and even had obvious disgust, and on the other hand, as a responsible man, he did not neglect to take care of Juan's material things. This ambivalent attitude makes their marriage relationship even more complicated and painful.
Juan's life is lonely and helpless. In Lu Xun's eyes, she may be just a symbol of tradition, even backwardness, but for Zhu An herself, she is just living the way she knows. Her filial piety and her conscientiousness to the family seem insignificant in Lu Xun's eyes. This emotional gap made their marriage a tragedy.
In this marriage, Lu Xun's inner world is complicated. He is both a profound writer and a modern man in the shackles of tradition. His marriage is like a microcosm of his struggle with the times, with tradition and with himself. This experience not only affected his personal life, but also influenced his literary creation to some extent.
Lu Xun's family life with Zhou Haiying
Lu Xun's life was not entirely immersed in a painful marriage with Zhu An. As time passed, he met Xu Guangping, a new-educated, open-minded woman who became the other half of his life. The marriage with Zhu An is full of contradictions and incomprehension, and the relationship with Xu Guangping is a fit of soul. In Xu Guangping, Lu Xun found a partner who could understand him and discuss literature and life with him.
In the relationship between Lu Xun and Xu Guangping, we can see a more harmonious family picture. Their exchanges were not limited to everyday life, but also involved literary, philosophical, and social issues. This relationship gave Lu Xun great spiritual support, allowing him to focus more on his literary creation. During this relationship, Lu Xun created many far-reaching works, such as "Death by Injury".
However, Lu Xun's life was not only about literature and love. The birth of his son Zhou Haiying with Xu Guangping brought new meaning to his life. Zhou Haiying is not only the crystallization of the love between Lu Xun and Xu Guangping, but also their spiritual sustenance. Lu Xun's love for Zhou Haiying is full of warmth and care, and he hopes that Zhou Haiying can grow up in a more open and free environment.
Unfortunately, Lu Xun did not have enough time to accompany Zhou Haiying to grow up. When Zhou Haiying was eight years old, Lu Xun died of illness. This sudden change brought a huge blow to the originally happy family. Lu Xun's departure is not only a great loss to the literary world, but also a huge impact on the lives of Zhou Haiying and Xu Guangping.
After Lu Xun's death, Xu Guangping and Zhou Haiying faced many challenges in their lives. As a single mother, Xu Guangping had to take on the heavy responsibility of taking care of her son and maintaining the family. And Zhou Haiying, as Lu Xun's son, was full of thoughts about his father and exploration of the future during his growth.
Zhou Haiying: Lu Xun's only son, his life is full of achievements and honors. After his father's death, he chose physics as his major and graduated from the Department of Physics at Peking University. He has worked silently in the field of scientific research all his life, and has served as a deputy ministerial-level cadre of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and a member of the 11th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. He always kept in mind his father's wishes and teachings, and practiced the spirit of Lu Xun with his own actions. In his later years, he devoted himself to promoting Lu Xun's thought and culture, and made important contributions to inheriting Lu Xun's spirit.
Zhou Lingfei: Zhou Haiying's eldest son, he also experienced many twists and turns in his growth. He has a very strong personality, and the things he sees must achieve his goal. He studied abroad in Japan and chose photography as his career. His photographic works enjoy a high reputation at home and abroad, and he uses his lens to record the changes of the times, and also inherits the artistic talent of the Lu Xun family.
Zhou Yifei: Zhou Haiying's second son, he did not choose a cultural career, but entered a private company to work. However, his love for culture and public welfare has not diminished. During his work, he actively participated in various public welfare activities and made his own efforts to promote the spirit of Lu Xun and inherit the family culture.
Zhou Lingyi: Zhou Haiying's third son, he also studied abroad after completing his studies, and eventually became an excellent videographer. He used his lens to capture the beautiful moments in life and inherited the artistic atmosphere of the Lu Xun family.
Zhou Ning: Zhou Haiying's daughter and Lu Xun's only granddaughter. She married the Japanese Masayochi Tanaka and lived an ordinary life. However, she has not forgotten her family traditions and cultural roots, and still maintains her love and pursuit of culture in life.
Xu Shaoxiong: As Lu Xun's nephew, he has his own achievements and characteristics in the entertainment industry. With his efforts and talents, he has created many vivid characters in film and television works, bringing joy and emotion to the audience.
Hui Shaoxiong, born in Hong Kong, China in 1948, lived in Guangzhou with his mother when he was a child, and his family was well-off. When the family returned to Hong Kong in 1960, Hui Siu-hung visited his father's jade shop for several years. Later, he applied for TVB's artist training course, joined TVB after graduation, worked at TVB for three years, then transferred to Leigh's TV, and returned to TVB four years later.
Xu Shaoxiong has many works in the entertainment industry. In 1974, he starred in the movie "Ghost Horse Double Star" with Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie brothers, and played a little confused in the film. In the same year, he also co-starred with Zheng Shaoqiu, Wu Ma, and Li Xiaotian in the movie "Strange People and Strange Things". Because Xu Shaoxiong is young and old, he has no fate with the protagonist from the beginning, and mostly appears in film and television dramas as a supporting role, but he has won the love and recognition of the audience with his excellent acting skills and unique image.
In addition, Xu Shaoxiong has an interesting nickname - "Benz Xiong". This is because he bought a Mercedes Benz when he was in his 20s and drove the Mercedes to and from work every day, which was very imposing.
