"Brothers" is divided into two parts, the upper part mainly tells the mother and stepfather of the protagonist Li Guangtou, in that turbulent and chaotic era, pure and poignant love story.
The lower part is centered on Li Guangtou, showing the bizarre social picture of the nineties of the last century.
Li Guangtou and Song Gang are a pair of half-brothers.
Li Guangtou's father fell into the manure tank due to ** and died disgracefully.
Mother Li Lan married Song Fanping, a hero who saved her father.
Song Fanping handed over Song Gang to his grandfather in the countryside because of sports.
Li Guangtou and Song Gang have been separated since then.
But their relationship has not diminished with separation, but has deepened.
Song Gang, like Song Fanping, is affectionate, honest and credible.
Li Lan also wanted Li to look like Song Fanping instead of his own father.
However, when Lee was fourteen years old, something unfortunate happened.
Li Guangtou peeked through the public toilet and was caught at the scene.
Li Lan accepted Song Fanping's treatment because of her ex-husband's peeping shame.
After Song Fanping died, he was watched by his son, which once again brought back the shame of the year and completely defeated him.
At that time, she just didn't dare to look up and walk down the street.
Now she has no face to live.
Lee's bald scandal hastened his death.
She didn't expect that Li Guangtou would create his wealth kingdom in Liu Zhen after he was in his twenties.
He tore off the hypocritical face of Liu Zhenren with repeated sexual orgies.
The huge ** beauty contest has thrown off a resounding slap in the face all over the world:
Falsehood, evil and ugliness are easy to disguise, and truth, goodness, and beauty have no place in the world.
Behind the indulgent carnival is the abyss of loneliness and bottomlessness.
The most unpleasant thing in Li Lan's heart is Li Guangtou.
She was afraid that her son would take a detour in the future and go to jail and be shot.
He is full of confidence in Song Gang.
From Song Gang, she saw Song Fanping.
Before dying, she told Song Gang to pay attention to Li Guangtou.
Song Gang wiped his tears: Mom, don't worry, I have to take care of Li Guangtou for the rest of my life. There was only the last bowl of rice left, and I let Li bald;There was only the last clothes left, and I let Lee bald. ”
Song Gang is honest and step-by-step.
He and the uninhibited Li bald head are just two sides of the same mirror.
When 16-year-old Song Gang and 15-year-old Li Guangtou went to the streets, people who knew them would give Song Gang a thumbs up and shout at Li Guangtou as "little hooligans".
However, this did not affect the relationship between the two brothers, who share weal and sorrow.
Fourteen-year-old Li Guangtou peeked at 5 butts from the public toilet, and the most valuable one was Lin Hong, the big beauty in the town.
Li Guangtou relied on the news of "betraying" Lin Hong's ass to earn dozens of bowls of white noodles from the city.
Every time Li Guangtou said the key point, it stopped abruptly, not because he intended to sell Guanzi, but when he just wanted to see more details, Zhao asked people to find him out.
Those people in the city blamed Zhao Shiren for doing too much, how could he not be late to go to the toilet.
What is even more ironic is that even Zhao Shishi himself is remorseful.
As early as his youth, Li Guangtou knew how to use people's psychology to meet people's wishes.
When he grew up, he used the survival rule of "people are cheap, invincible" to become the director of the welfare factory.
And make the welfare factory that has been losing money year after year turn losses into profits.
Song Gang also got a formal position in a hardware factory.
Just when the quality of life of the brothers was steadily improving, Lin Hong broke the peaceful life of the brothers.
Li Guangfa fell madly in love with Lin Hong, who was 3 years older than him.
His scoundrel-like stalking made Lin Hong extremely painful.
Every time he expressed his love for Lin Hong, Li Guangtou always pulled Song Gang to help.
With Tang Seng's style Song Gang as the background, Li Guangtou is more like Zhu Bajie.
Lin Hong fell in love with Song Gang.
This heroic girl boldly courted Song Gang.
He also fell in love with Lin Hong.
In terms of the relationship between his brother and the woman, Song Gang chose his brother.
This choice made Lin Hong and himself deeply involved.
Lee realized that there was an ambiguous relationship between them.
He forced Song Gang into the hospital bed of the heartbroken Lin Hong, and told her mercilessly
This can be disgusting. ”
In order to obtain Lin Hong's interests, Li Guangtou kidnapped Song Gang again and again morally.
What falls in love with my brother's girlfriend is equal to **;What are we going to be brothers for life or something.
Song Gang was fried and roasted on both sides as if it were on the barbecue.
couldn't help Song Gang, he chose to commit suicide.
Li Guangtou stretched out his hand to touch Song Gang's neck, which was red, swollen, strangled and painful, crying and scolding: **Dead, what the should I do?All I have is your lover, you're dead. I'm a orphan. Song Gang pushed his hand and shook his head, and said sadly: I love Lin Hong, I love her more than you, you don't allow me to be nice to her, and let me hurt her --- again and again
Seeing that Song Gang actually ended his life for a woman, Li Guangtou was angry and helpless.
He threatened that if Song Gang continued to rob him of women, he would definitely kill Song Gang.
After saying a few more words, Song Gang breathed a sigh of relief.
In Li Guangtou's body, his brother can't withstand the emotions between men and women after all.
Since he can be so ruthless, his own Song Gang doesn't have to insist anymore.
He chose Lin Hong to abandon Li Baldhead.
Is Li Guangtou's sentence "You can kill your brother for a woman" true, or does it inspire Song Gang to let him go without worrying?
I don't say it explicitly.
Just by virtue of Li Guangtou's affection for Lin Hong, he can give up Song Gang for Lin Hong.
Lin Hong and Song Gang got married, and Li Guangtou went to the hospital to undergo ligation surgery.
He swore to Lin Hong angrily: "It is impossible for me to have a child with you now, and I will never have a child with another woman." ”
And when Lin Hong was ridiculed for how to befriend Song Gang, Lin Hong screamed in distress:
If he hadn't been for Song Gang, I would have killed him a long time ago!I laughed when I lifted my head earlier!But who is Song Gang?Song Gang is my inseparable brother, I had to accept my fate, I had to be smashed and swallowed into my stomach. ”
Li Guangtou's rogue appearance is not in line with the society of that era.
And Song Gang also coincides with the public's definition of a good youth.
With Song Gang as a foil, Li Guangtou couldn't win Lin Hong's favor.
Others have only seen Li Guangtou's exaggerated "performance", and they can't see the deep relationship between him, Song Gang and Lin Hong.
I don't want to love, I love if I love. ”
Twenty-year-old Lee decided not to date any more women after a brutal failed first love.
Including Lin Hong. Li Guangtou became the richest man in Liu Zhen with his excellent insight and courage to fight.
When you go to the most luxurious restaurant in Liu Town, it is run by Li Guangtou;You went to the most magnificent bathhouse and took a bath, and you were opened by Li Guangtou;It's not as good as Li Guangtou to buy things in the largest shopping mall. ”
The clothes worn by Liu Zhenren are all products of Li bald head from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside.
In the eyes of Liu Zhenren, Li Guangtou has experienced two heavens.
used to scold himself as a little bastard, but now he has become his own subordinate and worships himself.
Li Guangtou is the GDP of the people of our county. ”
Li Guangtou, who collected scrap and earned the first pot of gold, wanted to strengthen his career, and the first thing to consider was Song Gang.
However, Song Gang didn't care about Lin Hong's face.
This time, Lee's bald head is really heartbreaking.
Previously, the down-and-out Song Gang carried Lin Hong on his back to secretly give relief.
He always believes that although the two do not live together and have their own homes, their affection is still the same.
Song Gang and Lin Hong got married, and the two brothers parted with each other.
Li Guangtou's business is getting better and better, and he is making more and more money, and almost everyone in Liu Town gives him a job.
And he can't find Song Gang anymore.
Song Gang was unemployed and contracted a serious lung disease.
There are people who survived and put all their energy into life.
The same goes for Song Gang.
He has love, Lin Hong, wealth and brother Li Guangtou.
Around Li Guangtou, who is rich and rivals the country, it is natural that there are indispensable daughters who throw themselves into their arms.
Li Guangtou is still unmarried, and there are so many women who share his bed that he doesn't even remember. ”
There is no shortage of love and women when you are poor;Wealth and nobility cannot be lewd, and lovers will eventually become married, but they will lose the power of love.
It's a pity that Li Guangtou is very happy, although there are many women around, but he doesn't sleep**.
In order to make up for this shortcoming, Li Guangtou resolutely launched the national ** film Olympiad "National Beauty Contest Champion".
The whole country is so enthusiastic, the town and the neighboring counties are not far behind, they all signed up, and they all threatened that the fertilizer and water would not flow, and the outsiders must stay in the local area, and never let the women from other places take them away. ”
The absurd thing is that most of the people who come to participate in the competition are not **, and many of them are even mothers of children.
They went to the hospital to repair the membrane and pretended to compete in the competition.
Women outside of Liu Zhen didn't know that they had this kind of technology, until a famous time, a ** named Zhou You came to the town to sell ** film.
Ladies suddenly realized: anything can be faked.
With a man-made who cares that it is original.
This beauty contest not only made Li Guangtou famous in one fell swoop, but also made ** Zhou You make a lot of money.
The women who patronized him were countless.
They used this fake film to buy 10 judges.
At the end of the competition, the 10 judges were all dead.
No. 1358 finally won the championship, and the interesting thing is that No. 1358 also has a daughter.
In the face of doubt, she was not timid:
She admits to having a two-year-old daughter, but she insists she's still **. She said that no matter how spiritually she is, she is always ** because she maintains **-like purity in spirit. ”
No. 864 was the runner-up, and this person was the most satisfying for Lee Bald Head in bed.
She is not like No. 1358 who pretends to be a little daughter.
So he agreed to her request for third place.
As for the runner-up No. 79, she ate ten judges with ten pieces of ** film.
Yu Hua uses absurd beauty contests as a metaphor for various ugly phenomena in society, such as sexual bribery, fraud, disregard for dignity, and the supremacy of money.
At this time, Li Guangtou has completely become the incarnation of **.
Its image coincides with Ximenqing in "Golden Vase Plum".
They are only interested in physical pleasures, not spiritual pursuits.
Just when Li Guangtou was indulgent, his younger brother Song Gang traveled south to promote health care products in order to bring a good life to Lin Hong.
In order to promote a ** product, follow the advice of Zhou You, and perform ** surgery to make yourself male and female.
When he worked hard to bring home 30,000 yuan, he heard the news of Lin Hong and Li Guangtou.
Forty-year-old Lin Hong found the happiness of her own woman from Li Guangtou.
Twenty-three-year-old Lin Hong hates Li Guangtou, who has achieved nothing, and forty-year-old Lin Hong admires the all-powerful Li Guangtou.
She denied the happiness of her marriage to Song Gang for 20 years, and devoted herself to Li Guangtou.
When Li Guangtou walked to Lin Hong's door, Lin Hong trembled with excitement when he heard the horn, and his legs trembled out of the door and got into the black Mercedes on Li Guang's head. ”
On the one hand, Lin Hong felt that it was shameful to indulge in desire, and on the other hand, she couldn't resist this kind of physical happiness.
When Song Gang and others were at home, it was Li Guangtou who brought Lin Hong to Shanghai for ** membrane repair surgery;
Song Gang lay on the cold track, and Li Guangtou and Lin Hong said goodbye one last time on the hospital bed.
The two of them are like two beasts, without the slightest emotion.
After the news of Song Gang's death came out, the two immediately scolded each other.
Li Guangtou is impotent, Lin Hong has only liked Song Gang all his life.
After watching the second part of "Brothers", my heart was as stuffy as if it had been crushed by a stone.
The father and son of the Song family successively fulfilled the mother and son of the Li family with their lives.
Song Fanping used love to support the noblest faith in Li Lan's life.
Song Gang's suicide note pulled Li Guangtou back into the abyss of depravity.
In terms of character, Li Guangtou is far inferior to Song Gang.
Song Gang inherited the loyalty, gentleness, and kindness of his father.
But he lacked courage and talent.
Faced with the blow of life changes, he had no power to fight back, and let life turn him unrecognizable.
Li Guangtou doesn't know what shame is, and as long as he can make money and enjoy himself, he will do everything.
To put it simply, it is shameless and despicable.
However, such people are often the trendsetters of the times.
With his outstanding skills, he stood at the top of the pyramid and impressed the people of Liu Zhen.
Even though Li Guangtou has become a successful person in the eyes of the world, his low character cannot be erased.
The love affair between him and Lin Hong does not arise because of love, it comes from longing and makes up for the past.
In the case of his wife and brother betraying at the same time, Song Gang chose to forgive and forgive.
Song Gang's great love also awakened the kindness in the depths of Li Guangtou's heart.
He said goodbye to the wine forest meat pond and escaped from the world with Song Gang's ashes.
The author takes this as a full stop for the whole painting and calligraphy.
Its original meaning is that falsehood, evil, and ugliness must always give way to truth, goodness and beauty!
Because of this, Yu Hua's ** is charming: he has never escaped the darkness in human nature, and has always preserved a kind and noble heart.
