As an old Xiamen native, Zhuang Nanyan wrote a series of articles recalling old Xiamen, and this essay is one of them. "Going to see a movie in Baijiacun" is actually "seeing a movie on 174." In the 1950s, when he was still young, he only knew the place name "Baijiacun", but did not know that there was a military hospital "174". At that time, materials were scarce. The movie tickets of the school reserved for 5 cents and 8 cents were costly. Everyone was reluctant to buy them. It was not a cent to go to the military hospital to watch movies.
He still remembers a screening of "Honghu Red Guards". He went late and had no place, so he went to watch behind the movie screen, his neck was raised up high, and the pictures were reversed. The actor was holding a knife in his left hand, and now he thinks Getting up is also a fun thing.
Zhuang Nanyan's fate with the movie does not stop there. In the 1980s, as an art teacher at Xiamen No. 1 Middle School, Zhuang Nanyan drew posters for Siming Cinema. At that time, he painted a poster for 30 yuan, which could be done in half a day. At that time, his monthly salary was only 56.5 yuan. Zhuang Nanyan smiled and said that painting posters for movie theaters is a good opportunity for him to make extra money.
Later Siming Cinema was rebuilt, and Zhuang Nanyan learned that there were more than 200 printed movie posters ready to be sold as scraps, so he hurriedly asked the movie theater for these movie posters. Fifty of these posters appeared in the "Fixed Frame Old Time" movie old objects exhibition.
Zhuang Nanyan said that at the time he thought it was a pity that these movie posters were thrown away, but he didn't expect to have a chance to let them "see the day again". Zhuang Nanyan is very happy to contribute to the "Dating Old Movies" series of activities.
For several months, Zhuang Nanyan has been following the "Dating Old Movies" series of activities through the "Xiamen Evening News". "Unexpectedly, there will be so many people participating and the influence will be so great." Zhuang Nanyan said that this event once again confirmed the social influence of the Evening News. In the future, I hope that more elderly people will recall the good times of the year through old movies.
