Hibiscus Town After Reading 1
Hibiscus Town, a wonderful name. Continuous green hills, intersecting streams, green banks of water hibiscus, deep green stone streets, the simple folk customs of the people of southern Hunan gave this town a unique beauty. After reading "Hibiscus Town", feelings of emotion, regret and desolation came to my heart. People living in that era are unfortunate, but also worthy of our respect. The main character, an ordinary, ordinary rural woman, suffered from the wind and rain of that era, and the coldness and warmth of human beings. As a rural citizen, she is unable to live the simple and honest life she desires.
Hu Yuyin was known as the "Hibiscus Fairy" because of her beauty and generosity. She and the loyal and honest Ligui Guigui, with their own rice tofu making skills, hard work, and became a small local reputation for self-employment. The two of them worked hard, day and night, and made their small business a thriving one. Seeing that the business was becoming more and more prosperous, coupled with the couple's frugal lifestyle, they soon earned enough money to add bricks and mortar to the house. After the completion of the house, people came to congratulate a lot of people, a good life. But the good times didn't last long, and the heartbreaking "Four Clean-ups" campaign began. Li Guoxiang, who had long been jealous of Hu Yuyin, became the head of the working group, relying on the lazy land reformer Wang Qiunian to engage in class struggle. This was the beginning of the unfortunate events. Hu Yuyin was labeled a "new rich peasant", her husband committed suicide, her business closed down, and her life has been in shambles ever since.
Also in this era, Li Manggeng, who was always loyal to the Party, was persecuted, and Gu Yanshan, a righteous and loyal cadre, was dismissed from his post because he had sold crushed rice to Hu Yuyin. Woes do not come singly, "four clear" call is still going on, the flag will be recalled with a bang. At this time, the disgusting Wang Qiu Pardon and became the secretary of the town party branch, the people's miserable life is obvious. The people of that era were sad. Qin Shutian, who was full of ink, had to pretend to be crazy to save his life. He knew that even if he was called "crazy", it was better than being humiliated and committing suicide, and there was hope. As the old saying goes, "We are all at the same end of the world, why should we ever meet each other?" Hu Yuyin, who has been sweeping the streets for three years, and Qin Shutian, who has been labeled as a rightist, share the same sickness in this era of humanity's destruction. Two hearts that have long been erased by the times rubbed the spark of love. They sympathize with each other and love each other sincerely. Happiness always comes and goes so suddenly. They wanted to live in peace and security, and once again, they were crushed by the reality of life. Qin Shutian was sentenced to ten years in prison, and Hu Yuyin was sentenced to three years in prison, and was sentenced to be executed out of prison due to her pregnancy. During these ten years, Hu Yuyin suffered a variety of misfortunes. During these ten years, Hu Yuyin suffered various misfortunes, and even nearly died due to a difficult labor. In the end, she hopes to return to Qin Shutian, and her rice tofu business is back in business. In contrast, Wang Qiuyin became a zombie wandering the streets. In those days, society's destruction of human nature and distortion of the truth were simply chilling. The author reveals the dark history of the period through the tragic story of the main character. It is the most pathetic to live in an absurd era where black and white are not distinguished and day and night are not known. The author uses satirical writing style and the expression of narrative and discussion to depict the characteristics of the period, which profoundly exposes the social reality brought by the era.

Fang Fang depicts the fluctuating experience of water conservancy engineering intellectuals in the anti-rightist, in the Annals of Wu Nai Lake. Some people are careful with their words, some people are proud of their bones and will never bow down, some people attack others without conscience, and some people can't bear to be humiliated and die. Qin Shutian, an intellectual in Furong Town, took a different path: honestly confessing his guilt. "Qin Epileptic is in his thirties, his heart is not dead when it is on fire, he is a happy-go-lucky person among bad people." Qin Shutian is some talent, as a state high school audio and physical instructor, and served as a county troupe choreographer, but also published articles in the newspaper, twenty-something years famous, can be said to be a young man. But after being branded as a rightist he did not have any intellectuals of the lofty self-possession, on the contrary, adapted to their roles, honest, active labor. Being the head of the five types of molecules, he mingled with the residents of the town. Even give full play to their talents, writing slogans, choreographing songs and dances, living a very happy life. His attitude was well received by the "higher-ups" and they didn't make things too difficult for him. The first time I saw this was when I was in the middle of a storm, and I was able to save my life.
People call him a madman, but this "Qin madman" is one of the few sober people. His epilepsy can be said to be a kind of self-protection. Because he knows that the order of chaos is disorder, and there is no justice in the absence of justice. Song Jiang is a successful precedent of pretending to be crazy, is not it? Later, Gu Yanshan also the same "drunken eyes to see the world", to save themselves, but also did not lose themselves. In such an era, ignorance is safer than erudition, promise is more secure than questioning, and false insanity is more rare than true sobriety.
Hu Yuyin, a non-poor peasant and non-advanced "doubly non-performing" protagonist, shows Gu Hua's breakthrough in post-scar literature. Her wealth story can almost be used as a model to inspire the masses of peasants in the agricultural channel, and her hard work, goodwill, and good prices have spread far and wide, forming a signboard. Her good relations with senior leaders is practicing the golden rule of the business world for thousands of years. But all of this is not good enough, or not good enough for someone to see you as a bad person.
Wang Qiu AI is a typical revolutionary speculator. He and Q are very similar, are penniless "rogue proletarians". He was a penniless "rogue proletarian" who made a fortune through the land reform. But unfortunately, he had gone too far and fell into the landlord's concubine's tenderness, and fell down. This is justifiable, after all, the peasants were oppressed by the landlord so miserable, which has seen the poor people's blood and bones raised by the tender flesh it, a moment to hold is normal. Just like "hometown world yellow flowers" in Zhao hedgehog, Lai monk, although a moment of curiosity to enjoy the life of the landlord, but we are still the bitter oppressed, class position is clear, firm will! Later, he seems to be "in power", but in reality, he can only raise the sword in the masses, and then turn around and have to work hard to serve his superior Li Guoxiang. This turnaround, in fact, is still very hard!
In shaping the character of Wang Qiuyi, the author is actually very restrained. He did not have a big evil for the wrongdoing. Even when the family was four walls, he ate white food outside, but also will often help the families work. So he didn't very much cause offense to people. And the party's light under the growth of him, is to know and repay, the text describes Wang Qiu Pian in leading the political study, holding the red book, facing the red sun, "Wang Qiu Pian to the masses after teaching this set of worship ceremony, is really heroic, thrilled, his throat hoarse, hot tears. He felt immensely tall, proud and powerful. He was like a saint who had practiced for a thousand years and attained enlightenment at once, wallowing in his unparalleled blissful joy. At this moment, you are asking him to cross the mountain of swords, under the sea of fire, throw his head, sprinkle blood, he will do nothing" This is how a body bathed in light, the party's deep love for the party's sons and daughters ah!
Wang Qiu AI's madness is really crazy. He has been bound by the revolution, "Wang Qiu Pian body dew is the phase of the new society ah!" The revolution has given him too much sweetness, and this dream is too deep for him to wake up. The author borrowed Qin Shutian's mouth to make a pertinent critique of these revolutionary activists of theirs, "Nowadays which big cities and towns don't have a few lunatics wandering and shouting? They are the tail end of a sad and lamentable era." Lai Guigui's whine-like smooth talk about the real situation of that era: dead lazy jumping, the government relies on, hard production, the government does not care, there is a surplus of money, the government criticized.
Flowering Town
I know "Flowering Town" because it often appears in various book lists of "describing small towns" alongside Xiaohong's "Hulanhe Biography" and Shen Congwen's "Biancheng". I think these lists are biased because Hibiscus Town is not about the region, but about the era.
The book's jacket says that the movie of the same name stars Liu Xiaoqing and Jiang Wen. So the question is, which character in the book they played respectively? With this problem, I began to read the book, and soon it was determined that Liu Xiaoqing played the heroine of the book Hu Yuyin. But Jiang Wen played who troubled me for a long time, because the book after the introduction of Hu Yuyin, Gu Yanshan, Li Manggeng, Li Guigui, Qin Shutian, Wang Qiu pardons and other major male roles, the author's ink and ink, but also almost evenly distributed, regardless of the role, the relationship with the female protagonist, the character image and so on, it is difficult to find the decisive evidence of the male protagonist.
This reading experience of not being able to find the male protagonist, like the feeling of reading "A Tale of Two Cities", I thought of this, I took a unique approach, boldly envisioned, is not this book, which male character and "A Tale of Two Cities" male protagonist Catton is the most similar to who is the "Hibiscus Town" of the male protagonist? When I read "Qin Shutian on the dike are in the dike show a face, some people say he hit the straw shoes to sell, some people say he picks up the underground cigarette butt to eat. Everyone shouted him 'Qin epileptic'", when the heart has three points of certainty. When I read that he was willing to be the head of the five categories of elements, and was branded as a rightist, but also still have a set of self-deluding theories, the heart of the five points of certainty. And in the cemetery and Hu Yuyin's encounter, the intersection of the two men will be extremely expanded also let my heart's certainty rose to eight points, until I read that he jumped "nigger dance", I finally have a full grasp of certainty that this Carton type of man, this decadent, optimistic, witty, courageous, in the front of the female protagonist to take responsibility for the man is the protagonist of the book, and against the Jiang Wen's gangly and crazy demeanor makes him the perfect choice to play the title role.

This book is a representative work of scar literature. Its positive and negative two-way satire and the five parts of the line of narrative and discussion reveals the indictment of the era, the degree of intensity and criticism of the thoroughness of this book, even if there are characters flat and loose structure and other defects can fall into a "flaws do not cover up the excellence of the" evaluation, but if I read with the other scar literature, such as the "bright sword", "puppy dog Bao Di", etc., compared to the superficiality of the book, it is still a good idea. Compared with other scarred literature I have read, such as the "Bright Sword", "Puppy Bao Di", etc., is still superficial, the reason is not only because of the book's happy ending, more from the depth of thought and the conflict of contradictions on the embodiment.
But this can not blame the author himself, if you have to find a scapegoat, such as the book written in 1980. The story of this book also stops in 1980, why not write later, must be with the characters in the book through a number of upheavals with the author himself, but also completely unable to predict after a number of major social changes, the future of society in the road. The author's thinking is not deep enough, but also because of the current situation, the turmoil has just ended, everyone is still in the flood, but also can not have a clear and objective evaluation of the past suffering.
The book describes the decades of frost in Furong Town, and the bridge that touches me most is the part where Hu Yuyin and Qin Shutian sweep the streets together, which is just like the TV series "Kite", where every episode is wonderful, and what impresses me the most is precisely the episode where Zheng Yaoxian sweeps the streets together with Han Bing - because of the same movement and the same kind of punishment, two people, two different kinds of punishment, two people, two different kinds of punishment, two people, two different kinds of punishment. Because of the same movement, the same punishment, two people, two streets, the street and the end are connected, and the fate of the two people has finally appeared a new point of intersection, these two bridges are so similar that even if the male and female protagonists in the book are replaced by Zheng Yaoxian and Han Bing, I don't find it strange to read it at all, "Hibiscus Town" is in the front, and "The Kite" is in the back, and the two people sweeping the streets is so classic and shocking that if I were the author of "The Kite", I would have borrowed this bridge. , I would have borrowed this bridge to further sublimate the work. At the end of the book, the author wrote: July 18, 1980 - August 4, the first draft in Mangshan - leaving me to read the book's last and biggest question: how can such an excellent and majestic work be completed in seventeen days? Good thing the author added a "Postscript", recalling his creative experience, which incidentally answered my doubt: "The writing time of a work cannot be calculated merely from the time of putting down the pen to the time of finishing it." Yes, the author has heard so many stories, and he has experienced that era, so he has a thousand words already in his mind, and seventeen days is just the time to write it out with one stroke of the pen. And we usually write, and not so?
After reading Hibiscus Town
The most impressive novel I read this semester was Mr. Guhua's Hibiscus Town. This 160,000-word long novel, Mr. Guhua only used less than a month to complete the creation, and I, too, only used three days to read the novel, see the novel's charm of the great, and I was really fascinated by its fascinating plot and vivid characters to the deep.
When it comes to Hibiscus Town, we need to know about its author, Mr. Gu Hua. Mr. Gu Hua was born in 1942, formerly known as Luo Hongyu, Hunan Jiahe people. According to the record: Mr. Gu Hua's hometown is famous for folk songs, those saturated with pain, sorrow, joy and longing of the folk songs, gave Gu Hua the initial artistic inculcation. After graduating from the Agricultural College, as an agricultural worker and rural technician, Mr. Gu Hua lived in a small town in the Wuling Mountainous Region for fourteen years, laboring, seeking knowledge, seeking food, and involuntarily being swept into a variety of movements, experiencing the changes of the times and the vicissitudes of the earth. Distant ancient mountain towns, mangy forested areas of the four seasons scenery, simple folk, stone streets, old camphor trees, footstools, red and white festivities, chickens barking. There is a kind of ancient attraction and historical affinity to Guhua. Long-term **** with the peasants live constitute the deep foundation of Gohua's creation, and is also the most valuable thing that he has obtained. Gohua's reading interests are wide-ranging, including Chinese, foreign, ancient and modern, literature, history and philosophy. Although Gohua began to learn writing in the late fifties and started to publish his short works in 1962, the golden age of his creativity came after the "Third Plenary Session of the People's Republic of China". He believes that it was the spirit of the Plenum that improved his "ability to recognize life and his boldness to analyze society and life". Hibiscus Town" was a masterpiece created during this period, and his creative success is also closely related to his early life experience. It is his tortuous and colorful life that enriched his creation and made his work possible.
Furong Town depicts the social atmosphere of rural areas in southern Hunan during the period of 1963-1979: after the end of the Three-Year Difficulty Period, when the rural economy had just recovered, Hu Yuyin, supported by Gu Yanshan, the director of the grain station, and Lai Mangeng, the secretary of the brigade, set up a rice and bean curd stall in the town, and made a little "fortune", and used the savings to make a fortune. "Hu Yuyin made a small fortune by setting up a rice tofu stall in the town with the support of Li Guoxiang and Wang Qiuyun, the brigade secretary, and used the money she had saved to build a building, but the building was seized by Li Guoxiang and Wang Qiuyun as evidence that she had gone down the road of capitalism, and Hu Yuyin was branded a "new rich peasant", her husband, Li Guigui, committed suicide, and Li Mangeng was dismissed from his post. Then, Hu Yuyin was humiliated even more. In despair, she and Qin Shutian, a "rightist", sympathized with her, and they became "nigger husband and wife", and Qin Shutian was sentenced to reeducation-through-labour, while Hu Yuyin was sentenced to controlled labour. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, Hu Yuyin, Qin Shutian, Li Mangeng, Gu Yanshan and others were finally removed from their hats, and their lives were back on track. But Wang Qiushi went crazy, shouting "class struggle, once you catch it, it works" every day, which became the end of a sad and lamentable era.
Hibiscus Town is also quite successful in characterization, shaping a typical character with a distinctive personality, leaving a deep impression on the reader. For example, Hu Yuyin, who is hardworking and beautiful, loves life and longs for love; Qin Shutian, who fights against this "crazy" era in a "crazy" way; Li Guoxiang, a "political intruder" with a twisted soul; Li Guoxiang, an ignorant and incompetent woman; and Li Guoxiang, a woman with a twisted soul. Li Guoxiang, the ignorant, incompetent, idle, lazy, bad behavior of the "sportsman" Wang Qiu Pian, etc., are a true reflection of the social landscape of an era and social change, and in the context of the era through the typical stories of small people in Furong Town to show the beauty and ugliness of human nature.
First of all, characters are the soul of the novel. Although Hibiscus Town is small, it is a small society where various characters meet. The depth of characterization determines the depth of thought of the work. Therefore, the more prominent the personality of each character is, and the more full the character is, the more the novel can widely and profoundly reproduce the complexity of the society. Mr. Gohua's depiction of the characters is closely connected with the background of the whole era, which makes people feel that it is apt and has the social connotation of the style. Secondly, Mr. Guhua's take ...
