10. Li Dazhao: Nine deaths without remorse, although tens of millions of people are looking forward to it!
"Shouldering morality on iron shoulders and writing articles with clever hands", Li Dazhao was the earliest propagator of Marxism-Leninism in China, and a patriot who truly integrated knowledge and action.

Li Dazhao's personality in "The Age of Awakening" is simple and simple, and he is sincere and single-minded. Most of the literati inkers in the early days of the Republic of China will have a period or N period of affair history, and Li Dazhao, as a professor at Peking University, has never had this kind of thing, his wife Zhao Shulan should be regarded as his adopted daughter-in-law, who is six years older than him and illiterate, replaced by Xu Zhimo's so-called romantic literati of this character, such a wife has long been suspended, but Li Dazhao has always been very respectful of his wife, he calls her sister, she calls him a, and the two of them have a deep affection.
Li Dazhao and his wife Zhao Shulan
Li Dazhao loves his family very much, when he first returned to China, he saw his wife and children catching chickens in the courtyard laughing loudly, he was embarrassed because he often supported poor students, so he and his daughter told the white lie of "eating mutton and stuffing teeth", and Cai Yuanpei also transferred part of his salary to his wife as living expenses, all kinds of details can show that Li Dazhao is a responsible man with a very family concept.
But this good man who looks gentle and generous in real life, his character is fierce and brave, and his character is broad, even in the "Age of Awakening", where great men, national soldiers, heroes and martyrs abound, his conduct is one of the best.
Professors at Peking University are good at speeches, li Dazhao also has many speeches in the "Age of Awakening", and Chen Duxiu, Cai Yuanpei and other people's elite route, he takes the civilian route, he will go deep into the folk to give speeches to ordinary people, the speech is full of passion, showing the absolute love for the country and the people.
In the first episode of "The Age of Awakening", his appearance is a speech: after Yuan Shikai's theft of the country, Li Dazhao, who was studying in Japan, gave a patriotic speech against Yuan Shikai's restoration, and Chen Duxiu met him in that speech.
Li Dazhao speaks to workers
He went deep into the people and the workers, and gave a speech on "Long Live the Laborers" to the workers of Changxindian.
After the failure of Chinese diplomacy at the Paris Peace Conference, he was the first Peking University professor to take to the streets to give a patriotic speech.
Regarding Li Dazhao, the most impressive scene in "The Age of Awakening" is: During the May Fourth Movement, he and Hu Shi went to the Red Chamber to find Chen Duxiu, and the two of them argued again in the corridor, and the topic was whether to fight, whether to start a fierce struggle? Hu Shi hoped that he and Chen Duxiu would persuade the students to cancel the strike and give the government a step down. They also said that if they continue like this, they will ruin their bright future and family happiness.
Li Dazhao: Although tens of millions of people are looking forward to it
Li Dazhao replied with a loud voice: "If we have thoughts and no actions, we cannot save the country." I Li Dazhao are willing to be this vanguard, nine deaths without regret! Although millions of people are looking forward to it. ”
This passage is very hardcore and high-burning, making people tear up after listening to it.
Slogans are not used to shout, but to implement, Li Dazhao is doing this, he is a patriot who unites knowledge and action, a true warrior and fighter, he has been firm and fearless from the beginning, he acted when Chen Duxiu "did not talk about politics for twenty years", he thought that he had long gone deep into the people and went deep into the workers, examined the real living conditions of ordinary people, and wanted to find a way to save the country, for which he did not return, died without regret, and finally he paid for his faith with his precious life.
11. Gu Weijun's silent crying during the Paris Peace Conference
The May Fourth Movement is an important plot of "The Age of Awakening", so the filming of the fuse of the May Fourth Movement (the failure of Chinese diplomacy during the Paris Peace Conference) is crucial.
For China, the Paris Peace Conference was an extremely humiliating meeting:
As a large country, China is ranked as a third-type country with only two seats;
As a victorious power, China not only could not take back Shandong from the defeated Germany, but could not even compromise to turn Shandong into a victorious five-nation joint management, but faced the great humiliation of Japan taking over all of Germany's rights and interests in Shandong.
The Chinese side protested and no one paid attention to it; the Chinese side "begged" the three giants of the United States, Britain, and France, and no one cared about it, and even the deputies had to look at the faces of the doormen when they went to see the leader of a certain country.
Chinese delegation to the Paris Peace Conference: Wang Zhengting, Lu Zhengxiang, Gu Weijun (from left to right)
Important figures of the Chinese diplomatic delegation at the Paris Peace Conference were: Lu Zhengxiang, Wang Zhengting, and Gu Weijun, who had originally come full of hope and vigor, but because the road ahead was extremely difficult and bleak, the deputies were sick and hiding, and only Gu Weijun was making his last efforts.
Due to the country's weakness, the Beiyang government, instead of becoming a solid backing for the Chinese delegation, would only shirk its responsibilities and perfunctory public, and its diplomatic decision-making was also changeable, and it even asked the Chinese delegation to sign a treaty of loss of power and humiliation under the pressure of Japan.
The Beiyang government wants to betray the country, Chinese the people can not agree, Chen Duxiu advocated the new cultural movement to awaken countless people, and the diplomatic failure of the Paris Peace Conference has aroused the strong patriotism of the Chinese people, and the vigorous May Fourth Movement broke out: student strikes, workers strike, businessmen strike, patriotic students studying in France also gathered outside the residence of the Chinese delegation, refusing them to sign a peace treaty.
At that time, the Chinese diplomatic delegation was under great pressure.
In 1919, Lu Zhengxiang, Wang Zhengting, and Gu Weijun stood in front of the telephone all night, waiting for the last-minute handouts from the United States, Britain, and France, and at the same time they understood that this was impossible, so they forced themselves to laugh and talk with tears in their spirits:
"How do we both die?"
"Is it a burial?" Or water burial? Or will it be cremated? ”
Gu Weijun said that he dreamed of returning to China triumphantly after the Paris Peace Conference, passing through the front door of Beijing, and the people cheered.
Lu Zhengxiang and Wang Zhengting listened with tears.
After saying the dream, Gu Weijun slowly got up and walked out of the room step by step, under the camera, his steps were so heavy and his back was so lonely.
Sad background music slowly sounded, the camera turned, bypassing Gu Weijun's tall and silent back, the camera turned again, Gu Weijun was covering his face and crying, he cried very depressed, did not make a sound, my heart instantly seemed to be pressed a big stone, at that moment I could strongly feel the pain and helplessness of the People of China a hundred years ago.
When I opened the barrage, the screen was full of "weak countries have no diplomacy" and "my generation should be self-reliant", and my tears couldn't help but fall.
In the end, the Chinese delegation refused to sign at the Paris Peace Conference.
Under the unspoken rule of "weak countries have no diplomacy" by the international acquiescence, under the circumstances of such a difficult diplomatic situation, they were still able to straighten the backbone of the Chinese for the dignity of the country, and in the face of the oppression of the Western powers, they forcefully said the word "no", and their boldness and spirit were similar to Li Dazhao's thoughts: Although tens of millions of people are looking forward to it!
