Metamorphosis
General Fiction蜕变
Cui Jizhe
That night the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, it was like mercury pouring down the ground. Like every day for the 365 days, the captain climbed up the ladder to the room and coughed twice loudly, like a full set of bronze-hammered painted faces on the Peking Opera stage coughing and shouting. The captain of our production team is called Qi Heixiao. Captain Qi put his hands in the shape of a trumpet and turned around and shouted: "Attention, attention. The male and female members of the team are coming to the team headquarters for a meeting. We have important things to say!" Over and over again, Captain Qi's voice was pure, broad and bright, no less than that of Yang Xiaolou and Yuan Shihai, the masters of Peking opera with colorful faces, and the tail notes could be heard for miles. The farmers are really pitiful. They study Dazhai during the day and study politics at night. At that time, we were either called commune members, people's commune members, or sunflowers; or we were called poor and lower-middle peasants. Chairman Mao said that we should receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants, and we were not called farmers.

General Fiction朝阳门外旧事多(外一篇)
Cui Jizhe
It is no longer easy for the current boss to really find an authentic Beijing old man in Beijing. To say that he is authentic means not only that he was born and raised in Beijing, but also that he has personally seen the four walls and nine gates of the old Beijing city. When you look up at the city wall, it is three feet six feet high, and twelve tall horses can run side by side on the top of the wall. The nine gates are located in the east, west, north and south of Beijing. The nine gates serve as flags and the nine gates serve as bolts. The nine gates guard the city of Beijing tightly. The nine gates are the nine generals. They are Zhengyangmen, Chongwenmen, Xuanwumen, Chaoyangmen, Dongzhimen, Fuchengmen, Xizhimen, Andingmen and Deshengmen.
