What is the metaphor of the story of the migrant worker? An Interpretation of Gan Tangyi and Liu Shiba in "The Record of Weird Events in the Tang Dynasty"

Gan Tangyi is the second story in Tang Dynasty Weird Stories, and it is also the one with the most ghostly atmosphere in "Tang Wei". Zhou Junchao and played three roles, Liu Shiqi, Liu Shiba and Liu Shiji. All three characters have distinct personalities. The

has a small face bag, and the looks like a ghost but not a ghost, and it looks fierce but not fierce. Fear and love. The picture of sticking his head out from the crack of the door when he just appeared on the stage is estimated to have left a psychological shadow in the heart of the audience.

Among the eight stories in 's , only Gan Tangyi's story is interspersed with narratives. Su Wuming went south to take up the post of Sima in Nanzhou, but encountered heavy rain on the way, so he had no choice but to stay in Gantangyi.

This story was designed with many intriguing details. If you just think that the screenwriter is just telling a ghost story with ups and downs, you at least ignore the following details of the story:


1. The metaphor of Gan Tangyi's name

When Bismarck met Li Hongzhang , he pointed out that although was backward in technology in the late Qing Dynasty A large part of the West, but the late Qing Dynasty established a very developed postal system . In ancient China, because the management area was very vast, in order to facilitate management, a perfect post station system was established very early, so that the social dynamics of various places could be communicated to the capital in a timely manner. However, the word Gantang in Gantangyi has an unusual metaphor since ancient times.

In ancient poems, the word Gan Tang often refers to "Gan Tang's legacy", and the words "Book of Songs·Nanzhao·Gantang" . Through the praise and love of Gantangshu, we express our nostalgia for Zhaogong . Later, it often refers to the ancient officials who were supported by the local people in local governance and loved by the local people.

was in a post station called "Gan Tang's Leftover Love", but strange things happened frequently, and eventually it became a black shop overgrown with weeds and looting passers-by. It's hard to say that the screenwriter didn't do it on purpose.

2. Cui Wuji of Qinghe who gave away his head

Su Wuming had just entered Gantangyi, Liu Shiba explained that he could live in the first room on the upper right if he was above the fifth grade.

The third wave of Qinghe Cui Wuji, who stayed in Gantangyi, was just a 8th-rank county magistrate. In

's plot, Cui Wuji doesn't have many scenes, and he has almost no other role in his appearance except for Zhechong Duwei, who is robbing the civilian girl. Why did , the dispensable Cui Wuji appear? Since unwanted characters appear, there must be something.

Although Lu Lingfeng was also from the four major families of , Datang and , compared with this Cui Wuji, he is still much humbler. The appearance of Cui Wuji, the eighth-rank county magistrate, vividly showed the status quo of the four major families walking sideways in the Tang Dynasty.

The Datang Dynasty carried forward the imperial examination system, which gave ordinary poor children a rare upward path. But from the official implementation of the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty in 622 AD, to the era referred to by this play in 710-712 AD. Although the imperial examinations have been carried out for nearly a hundred years, the advantages of the upper-class aristocracy have not completely disappeared. No matter how big your official is or from a better gentry class, you can still run wild in the countryside and be proud of your officials. This social class division has not completely disappeared.

If the imperial examinations punched a hole in the ceiling of promotion, the whole ceiling is still there. In the entire 36 episodes of

, the four major families of the Tang Dynasty are mentioned more than once, but there is no doubt that Cui Wuji is one of the characters that appear in the real plots of the four major families. Director forcibly gave him a dispensable gift, just to strengthen the warning of the reality of social stratification.

3. Does one person play the role of a triangle to emphasize the triple character of a person?

is a young actor who plays the three brothers Liu Shiqi, Liu Shiba and Liu Shijiu. And the face is specially decorated with thicker pastels. There are only two characters in the whole playSpecially decorated, one is Eleven Niang, and the other is Liu Shiba.

Some people say that Liu Shiqi is vicious and stubborn, Liu Shiba is kind-hearted, and Liu Jiu follows his wishes. These represent the three personalities of a person, showing good and evil and physical desire in front of the audience.

After the three brothers were arrested and brought to justice, the Liu brothers recounted what happened to the three brothers. The Liu brothers are the closest to ordinary people among all the villains in the play. The eldest is idle, not doing his job properly, and eventually goes astray. The second is kind-hearted and dreams of changing his fate through the imperial examination. The third is disabled and grows up in the wilderness. The burden of

's family eventually brought down the kind-hearted second child Liu Shiba, and eventually became an accomplice in Gantangyi. Such families are still ubiquitous today. A small disaster can eventually destroy a family and become a social unrest.

As for whether it is a person's triple character, the judge can guess by himself, at least as a representative of the ordinary class, Liu Shiba is dragged down.

The Story of the Tang Dynasty was rated as a good conscience drama by the officials, not only the story is flesh and blood, but also strange and bizarre. You can look at it as a ghost story, or you can look at it as a story about the growth of a little white monster. Similarly, you can look at it as a story of officialdom, and it is regarded as the current social class differentiation. warning record. This may be the reason why it is so popular.

It seems that if ghost stories are to be told well, meaning is indispensable.
