era historical drama "Dawn in the East" focuses on the major historical events of liberating Shanghai and restoring a new order of Shanghai's economic life on the eve of New China's victory.
New China was hard-won and was acquired with the blood and lives of countless revolutionary martyrs. This is vividly explained in "Dawn in the East".
Yu Lequan watched 5 episodes. There were two scenes of the sacrifice of revolutionary martyrs, each with its own emphasis, but both made people tearful.
The first scene is the sacrifice of Li Bai.
Li Bai was unfortunately arrested by the Kuomintang reactionaries in order to send an emergency telegram in Kuomintang-controlled area Shanghai.
Li Bai is the secret liaison officer of the Shanghai underground party. He has made outstanding contributions to our party and is a very important comrade of our party.
The enemy tried every possible means to get out of Li Bai's mouth the underground party lurking within the Kuomintang. They used torture all the time, but Li Bai did not waver.
In the end, the Kuomintang Shanghai Police Chief Mao Sen came forward in person, pretended to have a drink with Li Bai, and persuaded Li Bai for the last time to write down a list of my underground party members he knew.
Li Bai was only 39 years old when he died.
Before Li Bai died, he stood in front of the prison window and admired the brilliance of the sun.
How much he longed to witness the dawn of Shanghai's liberation with his own eyes, but the faith in his heart prompted him to drop everything without hesitation and die generously.
Li Bai asked Mao Sen why the Kuomintang reached the point of twilight in just four years. Mao Sen talked about the improper command of the national army generals and the incompetent command of the national army generals, which led to the defeat of the Kuomintang.
Li Bai pointedly pointed out that the National Army also achieved victory during the war against the Japanese. What Mao Sen said was not the reason for the defeat of the Kuomintang at all, but to see whether the people were standing behind the war.
In other words, whoever’s war represents the interests of the people and whoever has the support of the people will win the final victory; on the contrary, an army/party that loses the support of the people will inevitably end in irreversible failure.
Li Bai's sacrifice was for the faith in his heart. He resolutely gave up his precious life, which made people admire and cry.
The second scene is the sacrifice of revolutionary patriot Huang Jingwu.
Huang Jingwu is the second son of the well-known patriotic democrat Huang Yanpei, and is the audit specialist of the Shanghai Central Bank.
In Shanghai, which was about to be liberated, Huang Jingwu led Central Bank some employees to go on strike. With Huang Jingwu's efforts, the Kuomintang government's smuggling plan failed to be fully realized.
Huang Jingwu, who was regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the Kuomintang reactionaries, was eventually secretly arrested by the enemy and eventually secretly buried alive by the Kuomintang reactionaries. When
died, Huang Jingwu was only 47 years old.
Before being killed by Shanghai Police Chief Mao Sen, Huang Jingwu showed no fear, and his conversation with the murderer Mao Sen was relaxed and casual. In the end, Huang Jingwu and his comrades shouted Chiang Kai-shek , "Down with Chiang Kai-shek" and "Long live New China", and his life was taken away by the enemy.
As Huang Jingwu came from a well-known family and was a senior employee of the Central Bank, he could have lived a life of luxury and wealth, but Huang Jingwu expressed to our party his determination to resolutely fight against the Kuomintang reactionaries through his own actions.
For the sake of the country, he resolutely sacrificed his personal glory, wealth and precious life. How can Huang Jingwu's sacrifice not make people sit back and reflect in awe?
The scene of the sacrifice of two revolutionary patriots in Episode 5 of "Dawn East" has different emphases. Li Bai's emphasis explains that whoever represents the interests of the people will win the final victory. On the contrary, the party that runs counter to the interests of the people or even destroys the interests of the people will be abandoned by the people and eventually lead to destruction.
Huang Jingwu’s sacrifice emphatically illustrates that for the sake of the faith in his heart and the happiness of the vast majority of Chinese people, a democratic man resolutely abandoned his personal glory and wealth and shed his blood for the founding of New China. His epic revolutionary life is awe-inspiring.
The founding of New China was achieved with the blood and lives of countless people with lofty ideals and revolutionaries. We must cherish today's happiness.
Good literary and artistic works should educate and entertain, and educate the audience with a positive literary and artistic image. There is no doubt that "Dawn in the East" has done this, and it has done it very well, and it deserves recognition.
