There are many dialects in Beijing that are difficult to understand, such as the "old cannon" in Feng Xiaogang's movie "Old Cannon" refers to the hooligans, especially a group of idle people, who mixed in the streets when they were young, and also swarmed together when they were old.
Here, the old Beijing saying "stubborn lord" also has the meaning of a hooligan, mainly referring to "little bastards", that is, some underage little assholes.
In the 50s and 60s of the last century, there was a very famous "naughty lord" in Beijing, who was naughty and mischievous since he was a child, but he was full of righteousness, and he once saw righteousness and courage at a young age.
However, due to his contact with bad circles, he died at the age of 19, which is a pity, but his deeds have become legends in the Beijing circle.
<h1>People are not so bad</h1>
In 1949. Zhou Changli was born in Xicheng District, Beijing, and he was the first in the family of six children, so he took care of his younger siblings from an early age. His father was a boiler burner in a machine tool factory, and before liberation, because his father had opened a blacksmith shop, he was classified as a "small owner" and a wealthy family.
Although the "name" and "composition" of the family are not good, the Zhou Changli family has always been an honest ordinary person, and there is no capitalist's viciousness. Therefore, the neighbors have always been praised by the Zhou family.
Zhou Changli has always known how to take care of his brother and sister. According to his sister, "He was mischievous and liked to practice martial arts, but he was very enthusiastic and pure; no matter which child in the family was sick, he would carry it to the doctor on his back and buy them candy when he had money." ”
The Zhou family is classified as a "small owner", but they do not have much money, and the people in the family are often hungry. In such a situation, Zhou Changli had to go to other people's homes to eat, and as much as possible to leave a mouthful of food for his family. His popularity is relatively good, but he likes to help his friends fight, which makes his father more angry, and he will be beaten by his father after every fight.
Her mother also looked down on what Zhou Changli had done, and often threw everything he brought home to eat on the ground, believing that "the source is unknown." Despite this, he secretly brought some food to his younger siblings, trying not to let them go hungry.
Because it is more naughty, I often swim with friends, so the water is better. Once, a little girl fell into the water in the Summer Palace, and he did not hesitate to go into the water to save people, winning people's applause.
With this strength, which his friends called "chivalry", more and more people surrounded him. His family was so poor that he was forced to drop out of school at the age of sixteen or seventeen and became a "playmaker" on the street (Beijing dialect, "little asshole").
He did not think that becoming a "player" could also make a name for himself.
<h1>From a good boy to a "stubborn lord"</h1>
Zhou Changli was more popular, he wanted to be a decent person with a job, but he became a street gangster and finally became their head. At that time, many young people envied the military uniforms worn by the children of high-ranking cadres in the army compound.
However, Zhou Changli did not have any family background, and the "composition" of the family was not good, so he could not wear a military uniform. In addition, he also suffered from the squeezing and scorn of these people in military uniforms, which made him feel inferior.
The more inferior a person is, the more he will be oppressed by his surroundings. Zhou Changli finally learned one thing, that is, not to cause trouble and not to be afraid of things. With this stubborn temper, even when encountering high-ranking cadres, they also fight with it.
In the past, a group of people who could not become the children of high-ranking cadres gathered together and were called little bastards by the parties. Zhou Changli is more good at fighting, so he has become the leader of this group of people, known as the "stubborn lord".
He wasn't bad at heart, but after a bunch of little assholes came together, he became more and more asshole. Zhou Changli is more intelligent, usually with a group of little brothers to "do things" and win a lot of "booty".
In the summer of 1966, the "stubborn lords" with "heads and faces" in several districts of Beijing gathered together to set rules: first, they did not bully good students; second, they did not chase after their families in fights and did not retaliate against their families; third, when the Buddha (thieves) changed camps, they had to get the consent of the stubborn lords; and fourth, they had to manage their respective territories and not invade each other.
Saying that the well water did not violate the river water, Zhou Changli suddenly took a few younger brothers to the Xinqiao Hotel where the compound was active on this day, which clashed with the compound at that time. After returning from the Shimbashi Hotel, I could not swallow this breath.
By chance, Zhou Changli and his men visited Xidan at this time, and happened to meet a group of people in the compound of the New Bridge Hotel, and were once again humiliated by the other side.
Unable to bear it any longer, Zhou Changli fought with it, beating the leader of the compound to the head and bleeding, and the other subordinates also took out scrapers and mingled with the rest of the compound. The scene was a mess, covered in blood.
Since then, this incident has become a threshold that neither Zhou Changli nor the compound can pass.
<h1>He was only 19 years old when he died, and now it is a legend</h1>
After the victory, Zhou Changli felt that the bloody conflict could not solve the problem, so he took the initiative to contact the leader of the compound and wanted to solve the matter by peaceful means.
One day in March 1968, Zhou Changli took a few of his men to meet with the leader of the compound at the place where he had agreed. What he did not expect, however, was that the other side did not want to reconcile, but gathered hundreds of people to surround them, each with a knife in his hand.
In the face of such a common, Zhou Changli is likely to be killed, so he is eager to kill a bloody road. However, it was difficult to fight with two fists and four hands, and the other party was prepared, so that they were soon at a disadvantage, and one by one the underlings fell injured.
Zhou Changli did not kneel down to the other party and ask for forgiveness, but only handed the only knife in his hand to the person who had a conflict, let the other party beat himself to death, and then let go of the person who mixed with him.
One of the most common phrases he said was "to follow the rules", but this rule can only work for him, and special methods must be used elsewhere. Maybe she didn't understand this, so she was chased and killed by someone else.
However, in the moment of life and death, he still told his men to abide by the rules and sacrifice himself in exchange for others not being hurt. He was only 19 years old when he was killed. Although the 1960s are far away, his story is still a legend in old Beijing circles.
Nowadays, it is a very bad style to fight with others at every turn, and it is impossible to bring benefits to anyone. At that time, the level of education was not high, and people did not feel the preciousness of life, only thinking that fighting was a so-called future and respect.
In recent years, many films have reflected this special period in a nostalgic way. Many post-90s and post-00s do not know that before such peaceful times, bloody sacrifices on the streets were commonplace. Without these very special era backgrounds, the 90s Hong Kong film "Ancient Puzzle Boy" series would not be so popular.
Times have changed, and so-called group fights have become quite rare and sometimes considered bizarre. However, people at that time did like to fight in groups. Beijing, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and other places are everywhere.
In fact, fighting will never solve the actual problem, and may also encounter the disaster of imprisonment, and only by abiding by the rules and taking the legal path can solve the problem.
<h1>epilogue</h1>
Today, many dialects of Beijing have largely disappeared, mostly in connection with the changes of the times. In the 60s and 70s of the last century, people lived in large houses, and the children living nearby usually mingled together, and when they encountered some problems that could not be solved, they would use group fights to solve them.
In this context, special words such as "stubborn lord", "old cannon", "Buddha" and so on are produced, which refer to different groups of people, and basically people with backgrounds or stories deserve certain titles, otherwise they are all passers-by. But now the situation has long changed, people live in high-rise buildings, contact with each other through the Internet, friends directly eat is not very good, occasional drinking, singing and traveling are important group activities.
However, when it comes to big things, many people are willing to solve problems through legal channels. Because using the law to solve the problem is the right and rational way, one is to be able to solve the problem reasonably, and the other is to get corresponding compensation. So control your clarity and remember not to let the impulse ruin your life.
