Farewell to the era
The 1980s was an era of fireworks and poetry, an era of openness and inclusiveness, full of feelings, and an era of freedom of thought.
If you use three words to describe the eighties, these three words may be more appropriate: young, sincere, and simple.
The passion, romance, and idealism of the 1980s became a utopia in the hearts of intellectuals and the general public.
In the 1980s, just like Mr. Zhu Ziqing wrote "Spring" in the 1930s:
Looking forward to it, looking forward to it, the east wind is coming, and the footsteps of spring are approaching.
Everything looked like he had just woken up, and he opened his eyes happily. The mountains rose, the water rose, and the sun's face blushed.
Spring is like a doll that has just landed, it is new from head to toe, it grows.
Spring is like a little girl, full of flowers, smiling, walking.
Life was slow, people's demands were simple, smiles were real, and love was beautiful.
It was an age that promises were made that we would remember for the rest of our lives, and it was the depths of the years that we could never go back to.
▌ Literature of the 80s
The 1980s was an era in which cultural elites were the main driving force, and in that era, as a group of people with higher education and a relatively broad vision, on the one hand, they led many foreign philosophical ideas, cultural trends, and literary writing methods.
On the other hand, it is also a recounting of one's own cultural history by looking for writing resources that can compete with foreign countries from China's long history. So there is no doubt that in the eighties it was the cultural circles that played the leading role, and the cultural elites were the leaders in the cultural circles.
In the 1980s, a beautiful era that could not be copied for literary creation, a large number of writers, poets and scholars emerged in the tide of openness and inclusiveness.
It was a time when there was real literature.
The literature of the eighties showed a dazzling array of styles. Nevertheless, many critics agree that the theme of enlightenment was the entry point for the literature of the eighties.
Whether it is obscure poetry, "scar literature" or the reproduction of various dramatic plots brought about by reform and opening up, it contains the impact of breaking traditional myths and emancipating the mind. "The clash of civilization and ignorance" became a well-known generalization in the literature of the eighties.
Interestingly, the subject of the literary imagination in the 1980s contained a variety of theoretical resources of very different natures. Although these theoretical resources have different genealogies and even conflict with each other, the literature of the 1980s was all accepted as a whole, which was undoubtedly caused by the strong cultural hunger and thirst formed by the long-term closure.
From scar literature, reflective literature to reform literature, a large number of famous writers such as Wang Meng, Zhang Xianliang, Lu Yao, Liu Xinwu, Jia Pingwo, Zhang Chengzhi, Chen Rong, Cong Weixi, Yu Hua, Su Tong, Fang Fang, Lu Wenfu, Han Shaogong, Feng Jicai, Chu Fujin, Wang Anyi, Zhang Kangkang, Shi Tiesheng, and so on have emerged.
▌ Poetry from the 80s
In the eighties, it was an era of poetry full of emotional feelings and rational criticism.
At a time when everything is reviving and the earth is rejuvenated, facing a hopeful tomorrow, those silent poets begin to think about life and envision ideals.
The poet's dreams are all in the eighties, about ideals, about love, and when reading poetry, the feminine eyes around him. Before the materialization of the nineties came, a pot of shochu could make friends for a lifetime.
Kitajima's grim "Answer": Despicable is the passport of the despicable, and noble is the epitaph of the noble. Look, in the gilded sky, there are curved reflections of the dead.
Shu Ting's rich delicacy and purity "To the Oak Tree": I must be a kapok near you, as the image of the tree standing with you. Roots, clenched in the ground, leaves, touching in the clouds.
Gu Cheng's contradictions and hopes "A Generation": Darkness gave me black eyes, but I used him to find the light.
Munch's pure reality of Sky: The sun rises and the sky is bloody like a shield. Days were banished like prisoners, no one came to ask me, no one forgave me.
Haizi's romance and spirituality "Facing the Sea, Spring Blossoms": From tomorrow, be a happy person, feed horses, chop firewood, travel around the world; from tomorrow, care about grain and vegetables, I have a house, facing the sea, spring blossoms.
With the advent of the era of materialization, the ideal state of the poets was overwhelmed by the secular current.
Kitajima laments in "The Polish Visitor":
Then we had dreams, about literature, about love, about traveling through the world.
Now we drink late at night, and when the cups touch together, it's the sound of broken dreams.
Haizi's ideals are disillusioned, lying on the rails and committing suicide; Gu Cheng's sky collapses and he commits suicide with his lover; Munch makes a living in painting....
The poet has gone away, the poetry has died.
Later, it was an era of impetuosity and hustle and bustle, an era of strangeness.
▌ Love story of the 80s
In the eighties, people broke free from the shackles and waited for the rest of the world, opened their arms to the outside world, and embraced all the fresh air and sunshine.
In that era, there were both beautiful and tender love stories, as well as legends of chivalrous swords and swords.
There is the love interpretation of Qiong Yao and Shu, the wandering plot of Sanmao, and the chivalrous righteousness and courage of Jin YongLiang Yusheng Ancient Dragon Three Musketeers who cross the rivers and lakes.
Qiong Yao's white gauze skirt swayed with the wind, and the love of the flower before the moon and the moon, the sea withered stone and the never-changing heart, once made people mesmerized, and people were looking for the romantic plot in the pure love story in the real world.
Many of Qiong Yao's novels have been filmed into popular TV dramas by the audience, and the actors in the drama are mostly handsome and beautiful women, such as Qin Hanlin Qingxia.
Moreover, many of the theme songs in the play are widely sung and have become classics.
Yi Shu's Kaisimi sweater is always so independent and petty bourgeois, and the men and women in the story of the sea vow mountain alliance are full of anger, but they have no choice.
Sanmao stood in the wind and sand of the desert in a long skirt with large flowers, his black hair flying, and with the wandering breath of a gypsy woman, he searched the world for the home to find the refuge of love.
The long life-and-death love affair with the bearded Jose has made many people who have turned a thousand times in love sigh, and it has also awakened many people's dreams of flowers blossoming and falling and poetry and far away.
"The Olive Tree" may be a portrayal of her words and legendary life.
Compared with the tender and watery love story, a generation of heroes Mr. Jin Yong flew snow to shoot white deer in the sky, and the laughing book god hero leaned on the blue duck, leaving us with another jianghu.
Some people say that wherever there are Chinese, there are Jin Yong's martial arts novels.
Jin Yong's works have written through life, and those story characters have, in a sense, become our most simple concept of justice and love. Many of the Chinese the most simple view of chivalry comes from Jin Yong.
His works can bring a unique life experience to readers in the entire Chinese world. Jin Yong's martial arts are not only the dreams of heroes and heroes, but also the various conditions of the world.
Someone once asked Jin Yong: "How should life be spent?" Jin Yong replied: "Make a big fuss and quietly leave." ”
Jin Yong himself said: I don't dare to be a hero, but I like those heroes. Heroes represent human righteousness and responsibility.
▌ 80s film and television drama
In the 1980s, film and television dramas were also glowing with ideals and humanity.
The TV series "Shanghai Beach" impressed the audience with the story of revenge of the jianghu with a happy vendetta, creating a sensational effect of thousands of empty alleys.
TVB Hong Kong held the "Top Ten TV Series of the 1980s", and "Shanghai Beach" ranked first, which deserved to become a classic of that era.
The main characters, Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng, played by Zhou Runfa and Zhao Yazhi, have become a symbol of the times. The classic "Xu Wenqiang" style of black hat, trench coat and white gloves and the "Feng Chengcheng" hairstyle with two twisted braids have become the audience's collective memories of that innocent era.
Feng Chengcheng, portrayed by Zhao Yazhi, is a young girl with playfulness in her shyness, dares to love and dare to hate, is pure as water, strong and kind, and performs the charm of everyone's boudoir.
Zhou Runfa's performance made Xu Wenqiang's tragic temperament and tragic ending inspire sympathy from the audience. The dedication of the actors, one look, one look, one bow, a hundred turns and a thousand times are all dramas; an action and a look can all interpret the taste of the aftersound around the beam.
The melodious theme song sung by Ye Liyi makes "On the Beach" a model of winning with plot and performance.
The 1987 version of the TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber" has received unanimous praise from the public and has been hailed as "a wonderful chapter in the history of Chinese television" and an "insurmountable classic".
The director has no distractions and concentrates on creation; the actors have both form and spirit, unforgettable; the songs are natural, mournful and moving; the tones are bright and bright, pleasing to the eye; the shape is eclectic and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; the classics do not need to be debated, and they are timeless.
The 1987 version of the "Dream of the Red Chamber" TV series, with the meticulous cooperation of Wang Fulin's directorial team, perfectly reproduced this huge work, allowing ordinary people to see its fanghua.
Their dedication and dedication to art makes this magnificent masterpiece the icing on the cake. Chen Xiaoxu, Ouyang Fenqiang, Deng Jie and other actors have performed exquisitely and devotedly, and no one has surpassed them so far.
The music of the 1987 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is considered to be insurmountable, composed by Mr. Wang Liping, who has a deep traditional cultural heritage, and many songs sung by singer Chen Lichuan have become classics.
Through the songs, sitting and listening, people seem to be presented in front of the pavilions and pavilions of the Grand View Garden of that era, the magnificence of the flying cornices and horns, and the disillusionment of the Twelve Nobles of Jinling.
Chen Xiaoxu, a talented woman who played Lin Daiyu into three points, later shaved her family and became a monk early; Chen Li, a singer who was halfway out of the house, a fantastic natural sound, sang the dream of the Red Chamber music to the intestines, and then left the United States. Is their life story inadvertently in line with the complex of this huge work?
Once the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" was broadcast, it caused a sensation throughout the country, suitable for all ages, and received high praise. The drama has been repeated repeatedly and never tired of watching, becoming a recognized classic that cannot be surpassed.
"Journey to the West" is a fine domestic TV series and an uncompromising "divine drama". This TV series has brought childhood joy to generations of people, and eventually precipitated into the collective memory of Chinese.
Journey to the West represents the vibrant, bumpy 1980s.
"Lu Binghua" is a children's film produced by Taiwan's Gaoshi Pictures Co., Ltd., adapted from Zhong Zhaozheng's 1960 novel of the same name, telling the poignant story of a rural teenager with a talent for painting, who is not understood by the surrounding environment and unfortunately contracts illness and dies early.
The movie "Lu Binghua" is deeply moving, and the broken family and broken dreams in the film have been accompanied by countless tears and sighs, which have touched the hearts of an entire generation.
The theme song of the same name, "Lu Binghua", was also all the rage in the early 1990s, becoming a popular song that celebrates maternal love.
"Mama Loves Me Again" is a Taiwanese ethical tragedy film produced by Taiwanese independent producer FuXiang Company, adapted from the Taiwanese folk tale "Eighteen Years of a Mad Girl", which is carried out in flashbacks, depicting the story of psychiatrist Lin Zhiqiang's search for his mother Qiu Xia, who has been missing for 18 years.
"Mother Loves Me Again" caused a huge sensation once it was broadcast in the mainland and gained universal resonance. The 1980s were not just a film success, but also reflected the cultural phenomenon of the time.
Maybe it's because maternal love is a one-size-fits-all subject, maybe it's because the times weren't as noisy as it is now, or maybe it gave good people a port of catharsis.
Filmed in the 70s, the Japanese classic TV series "Blood Doubt", introduced Chinese mainland in 1984, this TV has influenced several generations, and "Blood Doubt" has also become the collective memory of the post-50s, post-60s, post-70s, and even the early 80s generation, this TV series has once been popular throughout Asia, and in China, it is even more empty of people, not inferior to the Hong Kong dramas "The Great Hero Huo Yuanjia", "Shanghai Beach", "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter Hero", the three most famous TV series in the history of Xiangjiang image culture.
The story tells that Sachiko Oshima, the daughter of Shigeru Oshima, an associate professor at The School of Medicine of Todo University, is a kind and beautiful girl of 17 years old.
Once, in a chance scientific accident in medical school, she was infected with radiation from radioactive cobalt 60, had leukemia, and often needed blood transfusion treatment. Mitsuo Sora, a medical student, gradually developed a love affair with each other by giving Sachiko several blood transfusions.
After several illnesses and several surgeries, Sachiko realized that she was about to die, and in order not to make her relatives sad and sad, she cheered up and said goodbye to her relatives one by one, leaving them with good memories. In the end, she and Mitsuo went out to sea on a yacht and passed away peacefully in Mitsuo's arms.
Through this TV series, people can know that the Japanese people are cultured, very educated, and also advocate Confucian filial piety and etiquette.
A song sung by Yamaguchi, "Thank You", mournful and moving, let a generation remember this eternal melody. A series of student outfits, a shallow smile, cute little tiger teeth, and pure love and kindness of Sachiko Oshima have made Yamaguchi Momoe a goddess in the hearts of many people.
She chose to retire when she became popular in Southeast Asia, away from the acting world, and since then she has married and taught her children, which makes people sigh and regret and miss.
In the free and rebellious 80s, people today think of it and sigh.
Those who really devote themselves to the cause of thought, most of them have the courage to go forward in difficulties, and the 1980s is the era when there are many such people, it was a golden age of idealism, an era full of hope, and young people have dreams in their hearts.
People in that era lived with souls, everyone was the same, not talking about money and power, only to see who lived more dashingly and who had more posture. The scholar Chen Pingyuan once summed up the entire 1980s in twelve words: the mud and sand were underneath, the crowd was noisy, and the anger was full of anger.
To this day, people still miss the era of openness and inclusiveness, full of feelings, fireworks and poetry bursting out, and freedom of thought.
We should understand this history, know the fate of our parents, know the prequel of the country, know where everything came from today, and understand the era of the 80s when we first recovered from a serious illness and woke up.
