Upstream • Night Rain 丨 Su Fei, Deng Gaoru: "Military Talent" in the Eyes of Comrades-in-Arms

"Military talent" in the eyes of comrades-in-arms

Su Fei Deng Gaoru

One

Comrades-in-arms came to reminisce about that year

Deng Gaoru

Su Fei is my old comrade-in-arms, once a subordinate, and now a famous practitioner of culture and art, research, and dissemination, with remarkable results.

Xiao Su draws a good painting, writes a good hand, and everyone loves it. He is also deeply accomplished in writing, filmmaking, and theatrical art.

I haven't seen it for many years, and now I suddenly received a WeChat message, and I can't help but feel uneasy. Wen called me and Mr. Wei Minglun "two talents in the military and the field", which really exalted me. My talent and contribution cannot be compared with Mr. Minglun. One is on the mountain, one is downhill, and it is not the same.

But the post talked about a few important facts: that is, 36 years ago, I set out from Chengdu or abroad alone or with my family and literary friends, and many times I went to the home of Teacher Zigong Minglun to seek advice, talk about it for a long time, and later Wrote the foreword for my first collection of news essays. Teacher Ming Lun recounted this interaction with his unique insight and language style. As a witness, Su Fei's younger brother described this good story and continued to record Wei Deng's communication in the next few decades.

Although the follow-up details have not been written, but it has not been known, why write it?

I just want to say:

Literati are close to each other, and artists are heavy on each other.

The master and apprentice are long and the camaraderie is thick.

The context will always be passed on, and the elegant style will always be thick.

The mountains are far away, and the green water is far away.

Beauty "Two Show Talents"

Su Fei

Bashan Shu water, high mountains and long streams.

Military talent, melodious love.

The intersection of fish and water, shining through the present and ancient times,

Two benefactors, Fluke Well-being.

Recently, I like to read General Deng Gaoru's "Silent Writing drama" and related information, first admiring the chief's amazing memory and profound literary accomplishment, then admiring the rigor and humility of the chief's governance, and then being moved by the decades-long knowledge, pity, and respect for the "two talents." Therefore, I wrote this post to express my praise for the two predecessors.

In the 1980s, riding on the strong east wind of the motherland's reform and opening up and the promotion of excellent traditional culture and arts, the Sichuan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China put forward the call for "revitalizing Sichuan opera", and a large number of adaptations of traditional plays and new screenwriting came into being. Among them, the newly compiled excellent dramas "Bashan Xiucai" and "Art Boldness" and other artistic masterpieces have shocked the art world, and the screenwriter Teacher Wei Minglun has thus won the elegant title of "Bashan Xiucai".

Director Deng Gaoru, who led the journalism work in the Southwest Theater at that time, was not only a master of news, essays, and essays, but also had a very deep Beijing and Sichuan plot knot. Therefore, he repeatedly visited the "Bashan Xiucai" and Tuo Hongyan to "talk about literature and drama", which achieved the vivid story of "two talents in the military and the localities".

In March 1991, Chief Deng Gaoru's first collection of news essay works, "Looking Back", was published and distributed, and Teacher Wei Minglun wrote a preface with illness, which shows his singing and deep affection.

The preface is titled "Xiucai Meets Soldiers", and through the detailed description of the "two Xiucai" from the first sight and acquaintance, especially the recognition of the sacred profession, writing achievements and brilliant talents of "Xiucai in the army" by "Bashan Xiucai", as well as the sincere praise that emanates from it, people still remember it deeply.

A contemporary "alpine flowing water", "meandering water, water to curve into!"

The text begins:

"Who knocked on the door?" Open your eyes full of armor!

A group of soldiers and servants made a special visit, and the red star of the hat sign epaulettes flashed, illuminating the four walls of the cold house of "Tu Xiucai". ”

······

It reads:

"The passengers came from Tibet, and the light vehicle team returned to the Chengdu Military Region, taking a detour of 100 miles to Longxiang in the middle of the way. Self-description: not for the hanging of the ancient city dinosaurs, only for the interview with the living "Bashan Xiucai".

Xiu Cai met the soldiers, and the knees were good to talk!

Xiu Cai met Bing, raise a glass to Xie Zhiyin!

One visit was not in full swing, the second trek came again, and then repeatedly wrote letters; the soldiers were touched by lazy Xiucai, and came and went to the spring breeze of the autumn moon...

Judging from the paper, the ink in the chest of the soldier is not less than the general "show talent". From the conversation to listening, the article in the stomach of the visitor is often slowly spit out, endlessly...

I followed his inkblot, followed the footprints of the light, and saw all kinds of heroic deeds that could be sung and wept...

The proud son of the snowy mountain who drives a long car and crosses the sky...

Ice sculpture athletes who resist the high cold and guard the frontier...

The firefighter who gave up his wife and children to save his father and old man...

The innocent and innocent arsenal director...

This series of news features that are familiar with the life of the troops cannot be compiled by the local show, and the non-military show is the only one.

We ordinary people really deserve to pay tribute to the thousands of military talents. If they had not reported thousands of articles on the troops, how would the people know about the army? The people do not know why the army supports the army?

At the end of the article, it reads:

I am not drunk, I don't mean to drink, let alone in the landscape, but in the military and civilian fish water situation also!

In this generational order, it is a new solution to the idiom of "Show talent meets soldiers"!

In other words, it is a documentary of the friendship between the local hideteen and the military showman.

Who is the local show? The opening chapter has been signed also. Who is the military show? "Looking Back" author Deng Gaoruye!

Sick in the early spring of 1991

As soon as this article came out, it corresponded to the "Military Xiucai" Deng Gaoruya of the "Bashan Xiucai" Wei Minglunya, and then spread inside and outside the barracks, north and south of the great river...

And Deng Gaoru, director of the "military talent," frankly said in the afterword to the book "Looking Back and Thinking of Prozac": "Since I met Wei Minglun, a famous dramatist and teacher of the Sichuan Opera Troupe in Zigong City, Sichuan Province, Mr. Deng Gaoru did not miss his disciples, he once gave many volumes of books, he was tireless, he was worried about the days, he talked about Da Dan for a long time, and now he is holding a sick preface, mostly encouraging." Although it is now written as a book, compared with Mr. Wang, on the contrary, it is really "silkworm beaten - ashamed (silkworm kneeling) ashamed (silkworm kneeling)".

This "worry" (in its "afterword", there are "two worries" listed in place of Prozac. This is the second worry), and it worries about the humble virtue of "showing talent in the army", and perhaps it is precisely this "worry", and even more worried about the fact that many years later, there are very few people in the army who have been promoted to director of the political department of military units and awarded the rank of major general.

The above quotation and related plots have been familiar to me since 30 years ago. But I never imagined that the friendship that "Two Show Talents" has lasted for more than 30 years is like a pot of aged wine, full of mellow aroma and refreshing. And General Deng was so intoxicated by the art of Sichuan opera that he drunk a large circle of Ming friends and drunk millions of netizens. This is not only a beautiful continuation of the "two show talents" good story, but also a fortunate thing for a hundred years of Sichuan opera!

(P.S. Back then, after I joined the army as a Former Sichuan Opera Organist, although I was busy with work, I was still deeply inspired by the reading of Wei Minglun's masterpieces.) I worked as a reporter and photojournalist in the Political Department of the former 149th Division in Leshan for several years, and I accompanied Director Deng Gaoru to the troops countless times, stealing from them to learn art, and I benefited a lot. Here, I would like to thank you again and again, and I wish the two teachers such as green mountains, eternal heaven and earth, and eternal youth of literature and art! ）
