The classic suspense spy war drama "The Pretender" once made the Ming brothers and sisters played by Jin Dong, Hu Ge, Wang Kai, and Liu Mintao popular on the screen and became a phenomenal work.
Ming Lou, the eldest young master of the Ming family played by Jin Dong, has multiple prominent identities such as the chief of the intelligence section of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, the deputy director of the Wang Puppet Secret Service Committee, and the Wang Puppet Financial Senior Official.
The complexity of Ming Lou's identity and roles has made many viewers' scalps tingle, and they even wonder if he will be schizophrenic.
But compared with the real historical prototype Yuan Shu, these "vests" and experiences in Minglou are nothing in comparison.
"The Pretender" Ming Lou stills
Yuan Shu, born in 1911, a native of Qichun, Hubei, is fluent in Japanese, and his father is a petty bureaucrat of the CC department of the Kuomintang.
On the surface, he is a reporter, a writer, a newspaper man, and the director of a magazine, but secretly he is the head of the intelligence unit of the Central Union, the head of the major general of the military command, an informant of the Japanese intelligence organs, a senior official of Wang's puppet "Qingxiang Committee," and the eldest brother of the Qinghong Gang.
和明楼一样，袁殊也是白皮红心，真正忠诚的对象为我方，上级为一位拥有丰富白区工作经验的潘姓著名人物。
As an infiltrator of our side who broke into the military command, the central command, Wang puppet, and the Japanese side, Yuan Shu not only provided a lot of extremely valuable information, but also protected the safety of our personnel, and made great contributions and played a great role.
Yuan Shu
Yuan Shu joined the Central Special Branch of our Central Committee in the early days, and he was once in contact with the Red Spy of the Comintern.
这样一个身份极其复杂的伪装者，势必会经常处于灰色地带，很多非原则的事情难以说得清楚，这些都成了他日后遭遇非常经历的原因。
On October 7, 1945, Yuan Shu and five other people, under the cover of our underground traffic officers, smoothly entered the Huaiyin Liberated Area and were warmly welcomed by Commander Chen.
Upon learning that Yuan Shu had been transferred to the liberated area, the military commander immediately issued a wanted warrant for him. Later, the Kuomintang newspapers simply concocted the news that "Yuan Shu died of illness or was executed" to confuse the public.
In order to facilitate normal work, Yuan Shu changed his name to Zeng Dazhai at the suggestion of his superiors, and later his two sons also had the surname Zeng.
Beginning in October 1945, Yuan Shu spent ten years of sunny and normal life, until April 1955, when he was arrested and imprisoned.
他在功德林、秦城一呆就是二十年，1975年5月获释后随即前往武汉大军山农场“劳动就业”，每月能领22.5元工资。
Yuan Shu
During the farm, Yuan Shu took advantage of the gap in active labor and filed a complaint, but there was no result.
In December 1979, he went to Beijing for medical treatment and again asked for a retrial.
Under the arrangement of the relevant departments, Yuan Shu stayed in Beijing to wait for the results of the review.
The time came in September 1982, only three days after the issue of the famous person surnamed Pan was completely resolved, Yuan Shu also waited for the final judgment he wanted: the facts identified in the original judgment were untrue, it was revoked, Yuan Shu was declared innocent, and the confiscated property was returned at a discount.
The following things are natural, D status and level treatment have been restored, a new house has been allocated, and since then he has been living for a long time.
In November 1987, Yuan Shu completed his legendary life at the age of 76.
Seeing this, you will understand that "The Pretender" can only be filmed during the Anti-Japanese War and the drama will end, after all, the life behind Minglou is not very good, and it will not be too good-looking.
