Zhang GA
Zhang GA is a character in Anti Japanese war movies and TV series, and Xu Guangyao's novel "soldier Zhang Ga". It tells about a boy named Zhang GA in Baiyangdian, Renqiu City, Hebei Province, during the Anti Japanese war.
prototype
There have been many versions of Zhang GA's archetype. Let's invite Xu Guangyao, the author of the original novel "little soldier Zhang Ga", to uncover the mystery.
Legend 1:
Baiyangdian Lake
Yanling team
Member Zhao Bo
Legend 1: in Baiyangdian, the hometown of "Gazi", there are several legends, among which Zhao Bo, a member of laoyanling, is the most well-known.
Legend 2: Yan Jiazi and Yan Xiufeng in Wei Wei's works
Legend 2: in the early 1980s, "yangazi" (yanxiufeng, once known as yangazi) was "discovered" in Tianjin.
Legend 3:
Yanling team
The little devil Zhang chendi
In Baiyangdian, we visited old man sun Ge, who was a member of Yanling team at that time and later vice captain of Yanling team. He talked about a kid named "Zhang chendi" who thought that he was closest to the prototype of "Zhang Ga". Later, he joined the Eighth Route Army and left with the army, but he never heard from him again.
Legend 4:
Xu Guangyao
I am Zhang Ga?
Some people once said: "Xu Guangyao himself is" Zhang Ga ". He joined the Eighth Route Army at the age of 13, the same age as Zhang GA. "
Xu said: "a lot of materials that form" zhangga "are dug up bit by bit in my life."
For this problem, Xu said solemnly and modestly: no! "Although I am a 13-year-old Ba Lu, I'm very rigid, very disciplined, and I'm not smart at all, and I've never made any contributions to history."
Secret 1: Zhang GA is not a fixed person
In the folk, "zhangga" has many legendary "archetypes".
On May 6, 2005, Xu Xinran, who had just recovered from a minor illness, was interviewed by the reporter. Like a mother talking about her children, Xu, who is 80 years old, talks about this issue with a little excitement
As for the prototype of "zhangga", I would like to talk about two little people. They are also the first ones that aroused my excitement and admiration during the Anti Japanese war. They are two little scouts from the Zhaoxian County brigade, one is "staring tiger" and the other is "Hitler".
That was 1942-1944, when I was in Ningjin County brigade. Ningjin County and Zhao county are neighboring counties. The troops of our two counties often have some military cooperation in combat and usually have some contacts. Our Ningjin County brigade also has some 12 or 13-year-old scouts, but they have not made any outstanding contributions. The two little scouts "staring tiger" and "Hitler" in Zhao county, a neighboring county, are different. They are not only famous in Zhao county, but also in several neighboring counties. They were already heroes at that time.
Conclusion(
Xu Guangyao
):
If my "zhangga" has a prototype, it is "staring tiger" and "Hitler". Because when I wanted to write, they came out. But it can also be said that they are not prototypes, because I have not interviewed them, nor created "Zhang Ga" based on their deeds.
Deeds
In a surprise attack by the devils, Gazi's grandmother was killed by the devils to cover the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army reconnaissance company commander Zhong Liang was also captured by the devils. Gazi was so sad that he decided to take revenge and set out to find the local team to fight the devils. On the way, he mistook the guerrilla platoon leader Luo Jinbao as a traitor, trying to hand over his gun and make a joke. Later, Gazi, who was a little kid, disguised himself as a watermelon vendor and handed over the "real guy" translated by pangdun with a wooden gun. In order not to let the team leader take the gun back, he gasped and hid the gun in laogua's nest, so he was criticized and locked up. After the education of the district leader, Gazi realized his mistake. In a battle, he was injured and cultivated in his hometown. When the guerrillas attacked the enemy's guard tower, he secretly ran back from his hometown to take part in the war. Unfortunately, he was arrested when he went to the city for reconnaissance. In front of the enemy, Gazi was strong and unyielding, and escaped in the battle. He cooperated with the guerrillas to pull out the guard tower and rescued Zhong Liang. After the victory, the team leader praised Gazi on behalf of the army and rewarded him with a real pistol. Gazi was so happy that he finally became an excellent little scout. Gazi's hometown has also been liberated!
Character analysis
Those who fought and contributed in the base areas can find a shadow in Zhang GA
"Gashi" 1: hide a gun in laogua's nest.
Video playback
In a battle, Gazi really captured a "real guy". In order not to let the team leader take the gun away, he used "gaqi" and hid the gun in the laogua's nest in the tree.
Interpretation
This is a true story I heard. The hero is a big scout, not a small scout, of the Shenxian brigade in Hebei Province during the Anti Japanese war. I can't remember his name. Therefore, the "gashi" of "zhangga" I wrote is not all the deeds of "kids", but also many of them happened in adults.
"Gashi" 2: wrestling and biting with fellow villagers.
Video playback
Pangdun wanted to exchange his own hanging whip (firecracker) for Gazi's fake hand gun. Although Gazi also liked pangdun's hanging whip, he was reluctant to give up his own gun, so he wrestled with pangdun conceited, but he didn't expect to lose.
Another major problem of Gazi is that he loves to bite people: when he wrestled with pangdun for the first time, he bit him if he couldn't fall. Pangdun scolded him: "you belong to a dog!" The second time I bit the puppet officer while chasing him. The third time was in front of pangdun's house. The bandits also scolded him: "you are a dog!"
Interpretation
I've heard and witnessed all these things. At that time, some of my comrades in arms wrestled with the common people. In addition, I have also heard of some piecemeal "Garen" and "gashi" such as biting people. In my artistic creation, I put these events together. This writing method is very normal. As far as this writing characteristic is concerned, it fully shows that art comes from life.
"Gashi" 3: block the chimney for the villagers.
Video playback
Gazi wrestled with pangdun and bet that his wooden pistol couldn't be smashed. He was reluctant to give up the souvenir that uncle Zhong gave him, so he bit him. For this reason, he was criticized and blocked the chimney of pangdun's house.
Interpretation
It has nothing to do with the war. From 1953 to 1955, I served as the Deputy Secretary of the district Party committee in a district of my hometown Xiong county. The division of labor was to run agricultural cooperatives. At that time, there was a village called "manziying" in our county. In the village, there was a medium-sized cooperative of about 60 families. The president was a very "Ga" person. This aroused my interest in him, so I learned his story from the villagers. I was deeply impressed by such a story: one spring festival, the first day of the first month, when it was the Spring Festival in the countryside, every family attached great importance to it and had to get up and cook dumplings according to the custom. As a result, the president climbed to the roof in the middle of the night and blocked the chimneys of several families, so that the dumplings of these villagers were not cooked. When I wrote "Xiaobing zhangga", I borrowed it into my work. Of course, when borrowing, we should pay attention to one problem: whether it is reasonable when using it.
"Gashi" 4: prick the car belt with dates.
Video playback
The first time Zhang GA met the enemy, he used the hard thorn on the jujube tree to pierce the enemy's car belt. It suddenly occurred to him that a scout named Luo Jinbao used a broom to knock down the traitor's gun. Isn't his fake hand gun better? Unfortunately, this "enemy" turned out to be scout Luo Jinbao, but fortunately, because of this, Zhang GA was appreciated by Luo Jinbao and was taken to the regional team as a small soldier.
Interpretation
I made up the story myself, and I had to. The novel was written there. At that time, I first had the plot of Zhang GA's shooting. In this way, I had to keep Luo Jinbao, the "traitor". Luo Jinbao rode a bicycle. How can we keep him? I thought for a long time and came up with a way to tie the tape. Because Zhang GA has to let Luo Jinbao go to the toilet to tie the belt. When I write novels, I usually try to avoid activities like going to the toilet, so this is not the best way, but there is no other way. As far as the fact of Ziziphus spinosus car strap is concerned, we call Ziziphus spinosus "finger root" there, which is very hard. Generally, there is no problem with the car strap.
Create meaning
This is a very distinctive children's military theme film. Xie Mengwei plays Zhang GA, Zhang Yishan plays Tong Le, Wang Shasha plays yingzi, and Qian Duoduo plays Liu Yan. Through the arrangement of rich details and the description of children's unique psychological activities, it truly and naturally creates a young hero image with distinctive character. The protagonist is full of "gaqi", stubborn but intelligent and brave. The director should hold the propriety tightly, not let him go beyond the characteristics of the times and children, and make it convincing. The implicit and lyrical Baiyangdian style sets off the growing environment and atmosphere of the little hero. The image of Zhang GA and several other simple children in the film has influenced a whole generation of small audiences. The director of the film is skillful, the picture is smooth and full of charm, which is of exemplary significance in the creation of films with similar themes.
enlightenment
Zhang GA's deeds make people feel the importance of being a Chinese and patriotic! In order to fight against Japan, many people gave up their lives. At a young age, Gazi had the wish to join the Eighth Route Army to fight against the devils. Their patriotism is not pure
