The memory of "A River of Spring Water Flows East"

CCTV Channel 147 "Golden Academy" on the evening of the 25th "nostalgic theater" "A river of spring water flows eastward", the reform and opening up of 1979 to watch the screening, re-watch still has a mark.

Zhang Zhongliang, the "hero of the War of Resistance", fell to Chongqing and had no choice but to live under the eaves of Lizhen, the social flower king, thus becoming "not even knowing who I am", "growing up", "step by step" and eventually "falling".

In its interior, under the moon in front of the window, facing the Yangtze River, Wang Lizhen took the lamp, "singing to the wine", and drank it all; the social flower was untied, and drank with it: "He tried his best to control himself but finally threw himself into her arms" (1979 film recording commentary)...

Later, "turning her face", Wang Lizhen "reprimanded" Zhang Zhongliang, when you came to me, you were a flower girl! Why accept? When spending days and drinking, the playboy "revealed": Li Zhen, if it were not for the talent of The Loyal Brother, he would have today! If you changed my looks, would you pay attention to him?

This "movie version" of "Chen Shimei", at that time, the re-screening can be said to be opportune, and the changes in the early stage of reform and opening up have impacted people's traditional feelings. The "stinky old nine" (intellectuals) accepted during the Cultural Revolution were reused because of the spring of science, abandoning the wife who had "shared hardships and hardships" in that year, which was both "despicable and vulgar" and "quite dirty", which was an accusation by women in newspaper articles.

Self-employed people are open, young craftsmen (who earn 100 yuan a month from repairing watches) are outside "looking for flowers and asking for willows", orphans and widows seek legal remedies, and university legal counseling is "personal experience"...

From May 30 to June 2, 2016, the Ninth National Congress of the China Association for Science and Technology was held at the same time as the National Conference on Science and Technology Innovation and the Academician Conference of the Two Academies, and the closing ceremony of the afternoon of the conference, the east gate of the Great Hall of the People was waiting for admission, behind the Anhui Provincial Delegation, I said that there was an Anqing person in our group, they immediately called the representative of Anqing, Chen Duxiu, we also mentioned the Anqing people Shu embroidery (famous performing artists, the "four famous Dan" in the drama industry, as well as Bai Yang and Zhang Ruifang and Qin Yi), In the anti-war film "A River of Spring Water Flows Eastward", she performed the social flower King Lizhen "to the fullest" and "reached the peak"... Unfortunately, he died during the Cultural Revolution.

In Pingshan Village, Anhui Province, Shu Xiuwen, an artist who successfully portrayed Wang Lizhen, the "Lady of the War of Resistance" in the movie "A River of Spring Water Flows Eastward", earned 30 yuan of ocean in January of that year and sent 25 pieces to his home (People's Daily, January 8, 2015, 24th edition of "Remember nostalgia, is to remember spring").

Link to the dialogue between Wang Lizhen (played by Shu Xiuwen) and Zhang Zhongliang (played by Tao Jin) in "A River of Spring Water Flows East":

KING: You haven't slept yet! What is the impression that the company gives you?

Zhang: I seem to have arrived in another world, and there is no anti-war air in the company.

KING: Oh my God, anyone who has just come back from the front says that. Often go to listen to the play, watch the movie, more entertainment, you will forget the unpleasant. (Zhang Zhongliang wants to refuse to accept the money he gave) What, do you take me as an outsider?!

King: You haven't been to my room yet, can you go up and sit down?

Zhang: Okay. It was too hot in the house and I went to open the window!

KING: Are you homesick again?

Zhang: I'm already a homeless person, so what home is there?

King: Why is it so pathetic! Isn't this your home? ......
