In 2009, the TV series "Latent", adapted from the short story of the writer Long Tongming, was broadcast on the four David TV stars, and was strongly welcomed by the audience.
Although "Latent" is an artistically processed film and television work, it also has a large number of real historical evidence, for example, the one we are going to talk about today is a "lurker", her name is Chen Lian, who once served as the head of the Children's Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League.
Chen Lian's father was the Kuomintang political figure Chen Bui, Chen Bui was a very special figure around Chiang Kai-shek, he was Chiang Kai-shek's most trusted countryman, in addition to serving as Chiang Kai-shek's secretary, he also served as deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Kuomintang Central Committee and other positions, known for Chiang Kai-shek's "literary courage".
On October 13, 1919, Chen Lian was born in Cixi, Zhejiang, in fact, Chen Lian's life was tortuous and bizarre, he almost died at birth, Chen Lian's birth made his mother lose too much blood, and before the full moon, his mother died, which made his father Chen Bui angry with this daughter, so he threw Chen Lian out of the window.
Chen Bui quickly blamed himself for his irrational behavior, named his daughter "Li'er", and loved her very much.
Chen Bui and Yang Hongnong had a total of five children, Chen Lian is the youngest, Chen Bui has a very strict family education, he does not want his children to get involved in politics, therefore, Chen Lian's four older brothers and sisters are all focused on learning, no one would have thought that the youngest Chen Lian not only got involved in politics, but also embarked on a completely different path from his father.
Chen Lian has always admired the "Decembrists" in Russia, and she believes that these nobles are not bound by their origins, but do not hesitate to kill themselves for the sake of their ideals and to overthrow the rule of the tsar, and this concept laid the foundation for her to embark on the road of revolution later.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Nanjing was occupied by the Japanese army, and the national government moved the capital to Chongqing.
At that time, Chen Lian wanted to go directly to Yan'an to resist the Japanese, but he failed to make the trip under the persuasion of Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao.
In 1939, Chen Lian was admitted to the Southwest Associated University in Kunming, where he met a young and promising branch secretary named Yuan Yongxi.
Yuan Yongxi's background is also very unusual, he comes from a famous family, his grandfather was a prominent eunuch of the Qing Dynasty, and Xu Shichang is a son and daughter, in addition, Yuan Yongxi is also the brother-in-law of Ye Gongchao, vice minister of foreign affairs of the Kuomintang government, no one thought that Yuan Yongxi, who was born in this way, also threw himself into the arms of communism.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Chen Lian, who graduated from university, came to work in Beiping as a history teacher at Beiman Girls' Middle School.
Chen Bui was naturally very concerned about his daughter's marriage, so he entrusted Zhang Bojin, deputy mayor of Beiping City of the Kuomintang, to conduct a detailed investigation of Yuan Yongxi, and found that Yuan Yongxi was not only a famous family, but also related to many dignitaries of the national government, and he was also a talented young man, so he gladly accepted this fast son-in-law.
On August 10, 1947, Chen Lian and Yuan Yongxi got married in Beiping.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Yongxi and Chen Lian, who had just been married for just over a month, were arrested by Kuomintang agents on suspicion of being spies for the Chinese Communist Party, but fortunately, they were released with the help of their father Chen Bui.
On November 13, 1948, seeing the irreversible decline of the Kuomintang, Chen Bui committed suicide by taking medicine in extreme disappointment at the age of 59.
Chen Lian and her husband Yuan Yongxi joined the revolutionary team to liberate Beiping in January 1949 and finally returned to the team.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chen Lian successively served as Minister of the Ministry of Children and Children, a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, and her husband Yuan Yongxi served as Secretary of the Party Committee of Tsinghua University.
In 1957, in the struggle against the expansion of the right, Yuan Yongxi was classified as a rightist and expelled from the party, in order for his children to grow up smoothly, Yuan Yongxi had to choose to divorce Chen Lian, after that, Chen Lian never married, and lived alone with three children.
After the Cultural Revolution began in 1966, Chen Lian was censored for historical issues and was condemned as a "traitor" and criticized by the rebels.
On the morning of November 19, 1967, 48-year-old Chen Lian jumped from the 11th floor of the dormitory of the East China Bureau on Taixing Road in Shanghai, neatly dressed, and ended his life.
In 1979, Chen Lian was rehabilitated Zhaoxue, and Hu Yaobang, who had worked together in the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, inscribed an elegy for her:
"The family is rebellious, and the heroine of the middle of the women. ”
