Youth (original Work of the Movie "youth")
by Yan Geling
About This Novel
The original novel of the movie "Youth" directed by Feng Xiaogang and starring Huang Xuan! The story takes place in the army art troupe in the 1970s. From the perspective of female soldier Xiao Suizi, it revolves around a series of events caused by the male soldier Liu Feng being punished for a "touching incident". It tells the different fates of Liu Feng and four female soldiers after the incident. Liu Feng was sent to the logging company; later he went to the battlefield and became a combat hero, losing his right arm; after he retired from the army, he lived in a miserable life, and finally died of cancer. He Xiaoman has always been ostracized by everyone, and was later transferred to a field hospital. He became a model figure, but suffered from schizophrenia; even "I" (Xiao Suizi) was ostracized after being exposed for writing a love letter; including Lin Dingding and Hao Shuwen, their fates were also cruel. None of the characters in the novel has a truly happy ending, and no one is a real winner. This kind of disillusionment seems to all originate from that betrayal in youth, "Why did we love betraying others so much? Why didn't we feel that betrayal was shameless, but felt that it was justice?" Spiritual introspection emerges from time to time in the novel, reflecting on the times and human nature.

Youth in memory
Youth, the beautiful and fragrant youth, has dreams, love, bitterness, sweetness, right and wrong. Youth is beautiful but also short-lived. Youth can be squandered, but at the same time it cannot withstand waste. Everyone's youth is different, but there will always be a pure land in our hearts to remember our youth. In this book, I think the characters in the book show sadness rather than tears. Liu Feng is a sincere, helpful person who is not afraid of losing. Liu Feng's stubbornness towards Lin Dingding is the mark of youth. Liu Feng's admiration for Lin Dingding is fixed in their first encounter. This is the first feeling of love. Wherever there are people, there will be turmoil, and there will inevitably be moments of being wronged and betrayed, just like Liu Feng's "contact incident" that changed everything peaceful in his youth and changed his destiny. I won't comment on the whole incident, but the only thing left for me is to ponder: Is it really a sin to express love for someone? Good times and beautiful scenery are shared with you, but youth is fleeting and people remain. Youth has passed away in time, and I am recalling it as it passes away. I don't want the world to see my aging appearance. I just want everyone to remember their fragrant years when they recall. I only wish that after thousands of sails have passed, only youth will linger in the memory.
Youth is still there, life is like a song. Youth is gone, life is like a dream.
The destiny that is destined at birth pushes people into their own destiny. The personal character and values of the individual and the characters and values of the surrounding people and groups lead people to happiness and misfortune. The general environment and the times have left the same imprint on each generation. My feelings and spirit make me unable to stop on a blindfolded road. Human nature is either wildly squandered or obscenely hidden in the times, and neither wrong nor right can be reversed. The evil and selfishness in people's hearts is something that everyone knows clearly exists but is unwilling to admit and face directly, even if uneasiness is always the instinct of self-protection. Kindness is what everyone desires but is stingy in giving, and the degree is revealed when measuring self-interest. Evil always despises goodness. Kindness in its humblest and most priceless reality becomes the human nature in which people doubt themselves the most. Don't tell, don't ask, don't think, you can get rid of any crime and inner torture. Youth is beautiful, stubborn, but also timid and fragile. Youth is such a big hot air balloon, so beautiful, but I don't know where it is going and where it will land... We have experienced too many regrets and sorrows in the absence of regrets. Everyone loses in youth and gains in passing. Vicissitudes of life have changed dramatically. Good memories can be retained but warm feelings cannot be retained. All youth is used to pay tribute. Dreams can create the world, or they can destroy themselves. The heart will be filled and it will be empty. The heart grows, grows old, and dies. In the final analysis, love is a dream that cannot be fulfilled. No matter how ups and downs and vigor we have experienced, facing the hardships and helplessness of life, looking back is like a farce. Emotions begin with belief and end with disbelief. After you laugh at yourself, you realize all the truth. From young to old, from birth to death, a person's life is a process of returning to the original point. From nothing to something, from something to nothing, everything can be accepted and forgiven. Riches and poverty, glory and sorrow. Only when you reach the end, you understand that living healthily is the greatest gift from God. Youth is still there, life is like a song, youth is gone, life is like a dream.
Helpless life, touching people
I watched it for the second time. I originally watched it for Huang Xuan, and he was replaced by Liu Feng. It was so appropriate. His life made my heart stir together, full of ordinary helplessness and touching. I will definitely go to the theater on National Day to support this movie Youth
I read it in one go, and it made me sigh and choke in many places. I suddenly worried whether today's young people can understand the emotions in it, and I worried that the upcoming movie would be able to fully convey the feelings in the book. This worry turned into expectations for the movie.
The unique era shaped Liu Feng, and the deformed family created Xiaoman. Or there is a Liu Feng deep inside each of us, and we have all been let down for one reason or another. Or maybe there is a Xiaoman deep inside each of us, and we have all been hurt to one degree or another. The author leaves the story with a complete first-person narration, but participates in the story as a partial witness. We cannot see the author's complete attitude, we can only feel her sighing heavily. 20170511Lois note
Very pretty.
This book is really well written, very good, super good.
I watched the movie, and suddenly I wanted to read some story in the book. The more I watched, the more I thought it was really good, very good. I finally started reading books, and I tried my best to read valuable books.
Very nice to look at.
After reading it, it was hard to calm down. Times have not been kind to this kind man, but he has always been kind to life. Do your best to be kind to others and live a life that should not be ordinary. Fortunately, in the last three years of his life, he was kind-hearted and had an equally kind-hearted girl to accompany him throughout the journey...
This shows the unique bad habits of the Chinese people. This kind of mutually exclusive thing exists in every unit and department. They all like to fight among themselves. Fight to the death or he will live and you will die. In the end, no one will get anything, and the bamboo basket will be empty. The existence or emergence of this bad habit should be due to people's too much self-interest and too little knowledge and cultivation. This also includes the outcome of wars in the world. U. S. Imperialism makes people uneasy everywhere, but in the end, what can U. S. Imperialism gain? Life is only a few decades, and you need to work hard to create wealth for society, but you cannot plunder other people's wealth. Otherwise, they are all empty. By God's will, there are tens of thousands of Ande buildings, but life is only three meters long. There is reincarnation in the cycle of heaven, and the reciprocation of life and death has no form.
