Those red classics, memories of youth that don't fade.

On the weekend evening, I went to Meiqi Grand Theatre to enjoy the national opera "Jiang Jie" adapted by the Opera Experimental Center of East China Normal University. There are many young people in the audience of the theater, but more people are my age. When we were teenagers, we read the novel Red Rock written by Luo Guangbin and Yang Yiyan. When I was a child, I watched the movie "Fire Forever"; When I was a child, I watched the opera version of Jiang Jie. Therefore, when Jiang put the famous aria in the opera on the stage, I observed from side to side and found that their mouths moved like me, especially when Jiang Jieling and other prisoners sang "Embroidered Red Flag" in Zhazidong.

That is the memory of our youth.

Nearly half a century has passed since I first read the novel Red Rock. In these decades, I started from reading red classics such as Hongyan, and became a spider web structure with divergent paths. With the grid edition of world famous literature published by People's Literature Publishing House as the background, Latin American explosive literature headed by Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude is the strongest, plus cautious German literature, bold Italian literature, graceful French literature, profound Eastern European literature and elegant and quiet Japanese literature. This makes my literary garden full of flowers, but the books I read as a teenager,

Last summer, I happened to see the movie "Eternal Life in Fire" based on "Red Rock" starring Lan and Zhao Dan on TV, and once again saw the end of the movie with relish. I don't know how many times I've watched this movie, so when Jiang Jie told Xu Pengfei, "I know the names of superiors and subordinates, but that's a secret of our party and can't be told to the enemy," I immediately said the following line for Xu Pengfei: "Don't say it? Don't say no more nails, all ten fingers are nailed. " I knew Jiang Jie's answer to Xu Pengfei's threat by heart, so I said to Yu Lan on TV, "Nail it, bamboo sticks are made of bamboo after all, and the will to produce party member is steel."

As far as literary value is concerned, Luo Guangbin and Yang Yiyan, once imprisoned by the Kuomintang, can't compare their Red Rock with Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, Calvino's Return on a Winter Night and thomas mann's Faust. However, from Red Rock to the movie Eternal Life in Fire and then to the opera Jiang Jie, there are of course many red classics featuring heroes who dare to call the sun and the moon for a new day, such as Lin Yuan, Flying Tigers and Red Sun. But I like literary works with similar themes to Hongyan best. I always feel that producers who fight their opponents in the heart of the enemy can best reflect their fearless spirit.

Therefore, I especially like Li Yingru's novels Wildfire and Spring Breeze Fighting the Ancient City.

I can't remember whether to watch a movie or a novel first. Now when I think of the scene where I led a steady gold ring and a beautiful silver ring to deal with the enemy in the ancient city, the images of Wang Xingang and Wang come to mind. In recent years, there are not a few film and television dramas adapted or reshaped according to the red classics. Somehow, revolutionaries created by young film and television actors always have no self-confidence. For example, the TV series "Decryption" of the same name based on Mai Jia's novel starred by traffic stars.

Although, Mai Jia became famous because the novel "plot against" was adapted into a TV series, and another novel "Wind" was put on the big screen, which made Mai Jia's novel expensive in Luoyang for some time. Under his great fame, some of his novels, such as Decryption published by 199 1, have also been discovered.

No matter what others say, I think decryption is Mai Jia's best novel: Rong Jinzhen, a special talent who is particularly sensitive to numbers. After he gave his great talent to numbers, his emotional intelligence was somewhat worrying. It doesn't matter, he just goes all out to indulge in the digital world. Such a talented person could have become a great mathematician, but at the beginning of the founding of New China, the country needed Rong Jinzhen to join the intelligence agencies and wrestle with the enemy on encryption and decryption. If Mai Jia's writing is limited to this, Decryption may be an ordinary novel about obtaining and deconstructing information. What is commendable is that when I was desperately fighting with the enemy on the invisible front, Mai Jia was able to put out two flowers, one for each table, and insert respect for a new family of mathematical wizards. So conceived, the author needs to project the light of mathematics into literary narrative, which is exactly the case. Although a "Decryption" is not bloody, not to mention the heroic spirit of the producer in "Enemy's Nest", doesn't it reflect an invincible spirit of defeating the enemy in IQ?

199 1, I was on maternity leave, leafing through magazines while my child was asleep, and suddenly I came across decryption. I'm so excited, read and read. Perhaps both writers have endowed their beloved characters with wisdom that ordinary people can't match. Decryption reminds me of the novel written by Shu State in 1983.

Speaking of reading, I'm afraid it may be inaccurate. 1983 is very hot in summer. 1983, the living conditions of Shanghai people's families were generally poor, and it was necessary for air conditioning to enter the family 10 years. It matters who has an electric fan or two. In the evening, we can move a chair to enjoy the cool outdoors. At noon, the sun was high, so we had to stay at home. Fortunately, there was a program called Novel Serialization, which premiered at 1 1: 30 every day. At that time, the book selection style of the radio station and the broadcast style of the novel announcer were like a clear stream, which seemed to help the audience who liked the program to cool off. In the summer of 1983, for a whole summer vacation, Shanghai People's Broadcasting Station's novel serial program was playing the novel "Ancient".

One night, after Xin Yuting, a physician at Pok Oi Hospital, and Lao Fang, a painter, rescued a wounded man who was chased by Japanese military police, another doctor, Zhou Yi, made a mysterious call outside. Soon, Aoki, a Japanese military police secret service class, received information from No.45, known as the "Eye of the Imperial Army", and ordered a search of Pok Oi Hospital. Translator Ding Yanchong walked at the front. After Tegaoban lost contact in Pok Oi Hospital, "No.45" appeared in the Japanese Gendarmerie, claiming that Zhou Yi was the drug buyer they were looking for in the New Fourth Army. Knowing the time and place of drug dealing, Aoki sent Ding Yan to start with some high school staff. Where did Aoki know that this was a special high school course doomed to be impossible, because he never understood the relationship between Ding Yan and No.45. ...

The above is the story outline of the novel "Gusuchun" adapted into the film "Special High School Curriculum in Action". In 2008, after watching this old movie, someone left a message on Douban: "To be honest, I can't see any difference between movies in recent years, such as Infernal Affairs and Bourne ultimatum. What you can see in these movies can also be seen in special high schools in action. In the gloomy footsteps at the beginning, the cast list is displayed in a unique way through the old photo album, which reminds people of the beginning of the 405 murder case. The unique soundtrack of the film makes people know that this is an anti-Japanese film. In the end, the hero's wonderful fight with' 45' in the jungle is no less than the passage through the jungle in the Japanese movie Rashomon. The last paragraph of the film is exactly the same as the beginning, showing the fearless revolutionary spirit of underground workers. Reminds me of a sentence in Shoot Him: You are a sharp knife in the enemy's heart. The deeper you dig, the closer the enemy is to death. "The news is wonderful, but he only outlined the story of Gu Suchun. Shu Shu's "Gusuchun" not only promotes the story of life and death, but also does not forget to insert the spring scene of Suzhou, an ancient city, which not only implies that Suzhou's spring has arrived and the Japanese devils are about to fail, but also makes the novel enjoyable to read and makes readers admire the revolutionaries who are fighting in the enemy's heart.

Because of the opera Jiang Jie, I have been looking for my youth memories these days, or I have opened the novel Red Rock or watched the movie Wildfire and Spring Breeze Fighting the Ancient City. Even after I couldn't find it anywhere, I went to the Shanghai Library and dug up the novel Gusuchun published by 1978, which was priced at 95 cents. Neither old movies nor old novels have become indifferent because of the passage of time. Especially, Jie Jiang, Zhao Dan, Yu Lan, Wang Xingang and Wang, the older generation of movie stars, performed gold rings and silver rings. As soon as we saw their screen images, we believed that they were strong fighters who had no hesitation in the revolutionary cause. "People who know me worry me." I think a group of film actors know the revolutionary ideals of Xu Yunfeng and Jiang Jie, so once they enter the role, they turn themselves into Xu Yunfeng and Jiang Jie. In their own way, they pay tribute to the revolutionary martyrs who shed their blood for the new China. And even if we can hum every aria in the opera "Jiang Jie", we will go into the Meiqi Grand Theatre to watch Fanghua again, not so much to verify whether our memory of youth has faded, but rather that there is always a feeling in the stories of revolutionary martyrs that makes us yearn for it.
