Chapter 11 10.character

Duan Qirui is straightforward and often speaks without restraint.Once he pointed to Lu Zhonglin, commander-in-chief of the Beijing garrison, in front of many high-ranking officials in the executive government, and said, "This is my former soldier." Later, Duan was wanted, and Lu took the initiative to ask Ying to arrest him. Ruan Lingyu and Hu Die both worked for Star Film Company, and they have very different personalities.Ruan Lingyu was born as a poor child, with a strong and unrestrained temperament. In the studio, she cried when she wanted to, and laughed when she wanted to.Hu Die is another kind of person. She is beautiful both on and off the screen, inside and out, and she is soft, kind, and well-behaved, and she puts her heart into filming.After becoming a "movie queen", she doesn't put on airs.She worked in Star Company for more than ten years until the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.The completely different fates and endings of the two seem to correspond to the old saying "character dictates".

When Chen Qiang first acted in "The White-haired Girl", the scene where Huang Shiren raped Xi'er was not in place no matter what. In fact, he did not want to do it well on purpose.The director warned him: "You are not Chen Qiang, you are Huang Shiren." Chen Qiang quibbled: "This play is done, does anyone still like me? I'm not married yet!" Li Shutong and Ouyang Yuqian studied in Japan together in their early years.One day, Li Shutong asked Ouyang Yuqian to come to his house at 8 o'clock in the morning. The two lived far apart. Ouyang Yuqian was delayed by the tram and arrived a few minutes late. After handing in the business card, Li Shutong opened the window from upstairs and said: " I made an appointment with you at 8 o'clock, but you have already passed five minutes, I don't have time now, let's make an appointment another day." After saying that, he closed the window and left, Ouyang Yuqian had no choice but to turn around and walk back.

When Li Shutong was teaching in Zhejiang First Normal University, there was a letter box outside the dormitory door.One night, after he had fallen asleep, the school sender knocked on the door, saying that there was a telegram, and Li responded in the room, "Put it in the letter slot." He only read the telegram the next morning.Afterwards, someone asked: "There must be something urgent when you send a telegram. Why didn't you open it right away?" The two heads of "Ta Kung Pao" - Hu Zhengzhi and Zhang Jiluan - work together seamlessly, but have very different personalities.It is said that Hu is not very social outside of work, and he pursues solitaryism. Some people even say that he is "reclusive by nature, and his peers respect him and do not get close to him."But Zhang Jiluan gets along well with his subordinates, "likes to make friends, is good at talking and laughing, loves to be lively, and likes to drink and eat".When he arrives, the door is often full of guests.When not entertaining, he is willing to take one or two colleagues to a small restaurant. In his spare time, he often invites colleagues to sing Kunqu opera. He is an editor-in-chief who does not lack affinity.

He Yingqin is cowardly by nature, indecisive in his actions, and lacks courage, perseverance and determination.Correspondingly, he treats others with humility and kindness, rarely speaks harshly, is extremely polite to friends, and never puts on airs to students and subordinates.Regardless of going to work or meeting, He always abides by the time, arrives on time, and never misses.But He also has the weakness of not having much money, and he is often demanding of his subordinates with money. Liu Zhi is easy to chat with people and things, he is clumsy, not good at eloquence, he looks honest and honest, but in fact he hides intrigue, has a stubborn personality, and will never waver in what he believes in.He often said to people: "I, Liu Jingfu, am as wise as a fool."

After the merger of Ning and Han, Hu Hanmin, who was under house arrest in Kong Xiangxi's residence in Nanjing, was released.On the day he left Confucian residence, there was a lot of traffic in front of the gate, and almost all civil and military officials except Chiang Kai-shek came to see him off.When Hu was helped out of the gate by his daughter Mulan, everyone lined up on both sides to say hello to Hu.Hu ignored him, and went straight to the car as if there was no one else around. After getting on the car, he looked up and saw a staff member who was in charge of his security during his imprisonment, and got out of the car again, went up to shake hands with him, and thanked him repeatedly.

Song Ailing is a low-key person who usually lives in seclusion and doesn't like to show her face in public.But she has the ability to control the situation, and can settle the friction and conflicts among the three major families of Jiang, Song, Kong, and even Chiang Kai-shek.She called Chiang Kai-shek "Brother Jie" and was the only person around Chiang who didn't call him "President" and "Chairman"; in public, Chiang Kai-shek respected her. On the surface, Kong Xiangxi was laughing and talking nonsense, and regarded Mingxian School students, fellow villagers from Shanxi, and former subordinates as confidantes, giving people a sense of "kindness" and "nostalgia".

Chen Bulei is simple, generous, and happy to help others.Regardless of his occupation and position, he is a good man. Chiang Kai-shek is usually unsmiling, but there are exceptions.A certain time when Jiang's attendants were having a dinner with the team leader and above, Jiang also joined, and Song Zian was present.At the banquet, when Song Zian talked about a topic related to hygiene, Jiang pointed to the attendant medical officer Wu Linsun and joked, "If it's unhygienic, you can find him." Fang Zhimin wrote a secret letter to Lu Xun in prison, asking Lu Xun to ask Soong Ching Ling to release him on bail from Chiang Kai-shek.This letter was forwarded to Lu Xun through Hu Feng. Hu Feng recalled: "After Lu Xun read it, he was silent for a while, and said, who is Chiang Kai-shek? This is absolutely impossible."

In the 1920s, Tsinghua students had the theory of "four sons", that is, Ziyuan (Zhu Xiang), Ziqian (Sun Dayu), Zili (Rao Mengkan), and Zihui (Yang Shien). The four lived together in Xidan Ladder Inside the two rooms in the alley. Among the "four sons", only Zihui has an easy-going temperament and has no disputes with others; the other three poets are all of the irritable and violent personality.Until the 1980s, Sun Dayu, the only survivor among the four, mentioned that Zhu Xiang treated him like the boss, but he still couldn't let go. Zhu Xiang's friend Luo Niansheng said: "Zhu Xiang's temperament is stubborn, violent, arrogant, and withdrawn. He is cold on the surface, but passionate in his heart." Fooled."

In the 1930s, scholars Xiong Shili and Feng Wenbing fought each other over an issue. Xiong Shili said sharply: "I represent the Buddha. If you disagree, you are against the Buddha!" During the Anti-Japanese War, the militias of Bie Ting Fang, Western Henan Province, in the Fifth War Zone made great achievements.Bie Tingfang is illiterate, honest and upright.Western Henan produces watermelons, and there have been many people stealing melons over the years. Bie Tingfang issued a notice that "those who steal melons will die."One day, the other son-in-law was thirsty on the way, so he took a watermelon from a nearby melon field and ate it.After the matter was known to others, he immediately ordered the guards to push out and shoot him.Another only daughter hugged her father and cried loudly, interceding for her husband, saying that if her husband was killed, who would the daughter rely on for life?Don't push your daughter away and say, "Shoot him, and I will support you forever!"

In the autumn of 1943, Liu Zhi succeeded Li Zongren as the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Theater.Li's evaluation of Liu was: "As a general, he is as timid as a mouse." It is said that when Liu got up to urinate at night, he had to be accompanied by two or three guards. Xiong Shili was a maniac, and once said that Hu Shi's scientific knowledge was not as good as his, Feng Youlan was illiterate, and Jin Yuelin talked about drama theory. Cao Liwu and Cao Juren once taught at Jinan University together. They were friends, but they were often confused by others.Cao Liwu said to Cao Juren: "I need to attach a line of words on my business card—not Cao Juren." His clothes and shoes are very neat, and I am very unkempt; however, we are very congenial, and we can be said to be friends with Guan Bao; in the Buddhist saying: 'This is fate!'"

Ma Yinchu visited Huang Kan for the first time and talked to him about "Shuowen".Huang said very bluntly: "You should go to work on economics. Primary school is not easy, and you don't understand it!" During the Anti-Japanese War, Huang Qixiang once invited Tian Han to dinner, and agreed in advance that it would be a table of guests.At that time, Tian Han brought thirty people to the banquet, and Huang laughed loudly when he saw this: "I took precautions against you in advance, and I just prepared three tables." When Hu Hanmin talked about Sun Ke, he said: "Because he is the son of Mr. Zhongshan, he has a revolutionary temper; because he grew up in a foreign country, he has a foreigner temper; because he is the only son, he has a young master's temper. Sometimes he only loses his temper. There are two tempers, sometimes two at the same time, and sometimes three at the same time." Deng Sanmu's wrist is extremely strong.When he was young, he went to a tavern once, and the waiter saw that he didn't look like a rich man, so he put him aside and concentrated on serving a few dudes.Deng didn't say anything, and asked for a few walnuts from the store, and put them on the table. With the movement of his right palm, the walnuts shattered.The store owner and the neighbors were all taken aback, thinking that they had met a "green forest" master, they hurried over to treat them. There is such a piece of "Hospitality Promises" hanging in Deng Sanmu's house: "Whether you go or not, come or welcome; the smoke is heated, and the tea is poured. The wedding invitations of that year were also unique: "We are now scheduled to hold a wedding ceremony at Nanli Public School on April 18, 1926, the fifteenth year of the Republic of China (1926) at three o'clock in the afternoon. , only refreshments, no banquets. Please come to visit and give advice at that time, and please do not give any congratulatory gifts according to those ridiculous and meaningless customs; if Mr. Meng expresses some opinions and guides us on how to make progress in society Forward, that is what we are thankful for thousands of times compared to congratulatory gifts." After Kong Xiangxi asked Pan Guangdan to investigate his family tree to prove that he was Confucius, Pan flatly refused, saying: "There is no family in Shanxi who is descended from Confucius." Feng Zikai has always despised the powerful.When living in Yuanyuantang, the county magistrate of his hometown asked for an interview, and brought a message in advance, so Feng pasted the words "Thank you" on the door.During the Anti-Japanese War, Feng lived in Zunyi, Guizhou. Luo, a local gentry, came to ask for paintings several times, but was turned away. One day, Luo suddenly attacked, and Feng was having lunch. That is to say, he got up and went into the bedroom.After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Kong Xiangxi wanted to buy Feng Zikai's West Lake set of paintings at a high price. The mayor of Hangzhou even went to his home to ask for paintings, but Feng refused. Wang Yunwu said: Mr. Gao (Mengdan) is a young man. Ye Gongchao said: "He (Xu Zhimo) has never had absolute resentment towards anyone or anything, and he has never even expressed some air of hatred unintentionally." Ba Jin told Shen Congwen that he didn't like to speak in public.Shen Congwen said that it was the first time he went to the podium of a Chinese public school. The classroom was full of students. He suddenly felt so many young eyes staring at him. Five words were written on the blackboard: "Please wait for five minutes." Luo Ergang, who was a student in a Chinese public school at the time, recalled another version: "Shen Congwen only went to elementary school, and it was Hu Shi who arranged him to give lectures in universities. There were about 20 people in his class, but when he was in class on the first day, the classroom was full of people, and he stood on the podium for more than ten minutes, unable to speak. Suddenly he screamed and said:' I saw how many of you there were, and I was about to cry!'” During the Anti-Japanese War, Yu Qiaqing and Wang Xiaolai, the two bigwigs in Shanghai, often traveled between Chongqing and Kunming.The two act in very different styles.When Yu Qiaqing came to Kunming, he always stayed at a friend's house. The friend was addicted to smoking and couldn't entertain him. Yu took care of breakfast by himself.Yu Qiaqing only spent 10 cents a day to buy four small steamed buns, but later prices rose, and the steamed buns became one-third of each. Someone jokingly asked Yu Qiaqing how to deal with it, and he replied, "I'll eat three instead, which will save me a penny." The female actress once traveled from Chongqing to Kunming with Yu Qiaqing. Someone asked her, Yu is a rich man, what kind of hospitality do you use on the way?She replied: At most, you can eat fried rice with eggs, which is considered the most hearty.Wang Xiaolai is another way, milk bread every day, let the price rise, never change. Fu Lei is versatile but has a violent and irritable personality. Lou Shiyi said: "I saw him grab the child's hair and hit the wall with his small head, as if he was going to execute the child immediately." After the Anti-Japanese War, the Kunming family The art school invited Fu Lei to be a professor, and Fu Lei set off from Shanghai with a bundle of troops and traveled all the way.On the day he arrived in Kunming, he went to attend a meeting to discuss the teaching plan. Because of a disagreement, he immediately picked up his unopened luggage and returned to Shanghai. Lin Yutang wrote "My Country, My People" in English, and after it became a bestseller in the United States, he decided to go to the United States to engage in English writing.This is a mid 30's thing.At that time, Lin had already lived in a garden house in Shanghai and lived a comfortable life.But if you have a firm mind, you can discard these things like trash, which shows that Lin Weiren is decisive. Zhou Fujiu was originally a Jiangxi salt merchant. After his fortune, he owned a large amount of land and real estate in Shanghai and became a wealthy man.In order to save money, Zhou never takes a car when going out.One night, when Zhou came home from outside with a lantern, he saw glass lamps hung on the front and back of a sedan chair in front of him, so he followed behind and blew out the candles in the lantern in his hand.Walking all the way to the door of the house, when Zhou Zhengwei secretly rejoiced at the half of the candle he had saved, he took a closer look and saw that it was his daughter-in-law who got off the sedan chair. Zhou was so anxious that he almost carried it on his back. Zheng Chaolin worked with Qu Qiubai in his early years.He recalled in his later years: "I admire Qu Qiubai's versatility, as Lu Xun said. He is politically sensitive and hard-working, but his character is fundamentally weak. Yang Zhihua once told me that one day she and Qiubai were on the same tram. The last person stared at Qiu Bai, and Qiu Bai's face turned pale with fright." During the Anti-Japanese War, Fu Sinian often "fired cannons" at the National Political Council. Chiang Kai-shek invited Fu Sinian to dinner in private, saying: "Since you trust me, you should trust the people I appoint." Fu Sinian replied: "I trust the chairman. As for saying that because you trust you, you should trust the people you trust, well, I can't say that if I cut off my head." Mei Yiqi has served as the president of Tsinghua University for a long time.As the head of a school, he usually doesn't talk much, and rarely makes decisions in public.Some students wrote a doggerel about his character: "Probably or maybe, but we dare not say, but the school always thinks, I am afraid it seems not necessarily." He Zhaowu, a graduate of Southwest Associated University, recalled: "In a critical situation, you can tell a person's character very well. For example, Principal Mei (Yiqi), who was in his fifties at the time, was very gentlemanly and always dressed in Very tidy, always holding a Chamberlain-style curved umbrella, and walking very steadily, even when he was running for the alarm, the surrounding crowd was chaotic, but he still did not lose his appearance, walking slowly like a car, and at the same time guiding the students. But Wu Han is not like this, once the emergency alarm was raised, I saw him running up and down the hillside, looking panicked, and his complexion changed." Fu Sinian gets angry easily, but he only treats things but not people, and often regrets afterwards.A worker joked: I hope Fu Sinian loses his temper with him.Because Fu lost his temper in the morning, and in the afternoon a certain magazine sent a manuscript fee, he gave it to his co-workers all at once. In 1929, scholar Liu Wendian served as the president of Anhui University.Chiang Kai-shek once went to Anqing to summon Liu and asked him to provide the list of Communist Party members in the school.Liu Wendian said: "I only know how to teach, but I don't know who is the Communist Party." Chiang Kai-shek said: "How did you become the principal? If you don't get rid of your schoolmaster, I will be sorry to the Prime Minister!" , I didn’t even know your name when we started the revolution in Tokyo!” Lin Yutang commented on "Yusi" colleagues: "Da Fu is chic, Fu Lao (Sun Fuyuan) is quiet and elegant, Xuan Tong has a red face, and half a farmer is vigorous." Really nervous." When Luo Ergang was working in Peking University, some schools tried to poach him away. Hu Shi said to him: "If you go to another institution, I am afraid that people will not appreciate you." .I am a person who is ruthless in nature. I don’t know how to deal with people. I am not a suitable teacher. Who can love me like him, understand me, forgive me, abandon my shortcomings and learn my strengths?" After Hu Shi resigned as the principal of the Chinese public school, he commented on his successor Ma Junwu: "Mr. Ma is the secretary-general of the Sun Yat-sen League, and he has a high status. It's just that he has a bad temper and slaps Song Jiaoren with the sole of his shoe when he disagrees with him. If you don’t trust people, you have to catch everything by yourself, and you don’t even have to worry about emptying the spittoon, so you have to have a look. If you don’t trust people, people don’t dare to take responsibility; if you catch everything by yourself, it won’t work.” After Xu Beihong returned to China from Europe, he took his wife and children back to his hometown in Yixing in 1927.Xu's mother was very happy with her son's "returning to his hometown" and set up several tables.At two o'clock in the afternoon that day, everyone had just finished eating and was sitting around talking about their daily routines when suddenly there were several gunshots and shouts of "The robbers are coming!"The Xu family panicked, and the family took care of each other and fled to the haystack behind the house, but Xu Beihong was nowhere to be seen.After the bandits dispersed, Jiang Biwei was anxious when she saw Xu Beihong enter the yard with many grains stuck to his hair and clothes.It turned out that Xu Beihong reacted extremely well, "As soon as the gunshot fired, he jumped up and ran. He ran to the barn behind the house by himself, broke the wooden slats of the transom, and got in to hide in the grain pile." Jiang Yinqiu, Zhou Shoujuan, Fan Yanqiao, and Cheng Xiaoqing are collectively known as the "Four Elders in Wuzhong".Zheng Yimei said: "Yinqiu treats people politely, speaks out with neither humbleness nor overbearing, and there is harmony in the solemnity, and gentleness in the straightforwardness. Let you be full of unhappiness and frown. When you talk to him, you will unconsciously feel comfortable. Sitting in the spring breeze. Although he broke up with others, he never made a bad sound. When he gets along with his children at home, he never speaks harshly." Huang Yanpei once prided himself on being "round on the outside and square on the inside", while Liang Shuming called it "round on the outside and round on the inside". After Wu Hufan became famous, painting seekers flocked to him, making it difficult to pay off his painting debts. However, he was not burdened by this.Someone advised him, isn't it a pity to waste time like this!Why not draw some more?Wu replied: "A human being is still a human being, and cannot be considered on the same level as a machine." As the name suggests, Shen Xinhai is as calm as water and as wide as the sea.No matter whether the situation is good or bad, gain or loss, they are indifferent and don't care much, just go with the situation. The translator of Shakespeare Zhu Shenghao is not only good at English, but also proficient in poetry. He was praised as the first person after Dongpo by Xia Chengtao, a famous poet.Zhu is a typical nerd with a withdrawn personality and knows nothing about interpersonal relationships.After graduating from school, he joined the World Book Company as an editor. He once wrote a letter to the editor-in-chief, calling him "brother" and making him a laughing stock. When Han Guojun (Zishi) was the governor of Jiangsu, he once asked Xiao Junxian to draw a vertical scroll, and asked his subordinates to ask Xiao to inscribe Zilao on the money. After hearing this, Xiao said to the subordinates sent by Han: "He is old, and Yu is also old. I really don’t know which one is older? Mr. Shu Zishi is so sweet, why bother talking about it!” When Huang Kan was a professor at Central University, the school stipulated that teachers and students should wear school badges when entering and leaving the school.Huang Kan turned a deaf ear to this, and was once stopped by the guard to see his business card. Huang said, "I am the business card, so take me." It was not until the principal was called out to mediate and apologize. Li Jianwu said: Lin Huiyin "lacks women's secluded character. She is (all) interested in any issue, especially literature and art, and has instinctive and direct perception. She grew up rich and rich, but her fate was rough, and self-cultivation allowed her to hide her enthusiasm. Inside, enthusiasm is the pillar of her life. She likes to argue with people—because she loves the truth, but she is lonely, lonely, and depressed, and she will always express her sorrow in verse.”
