In "Artesian Water", Sun Zhihong's portrayal of Xu Shiduo's character outlines a contemplative picture.
As an anti-Japanese general, Xu Shiduo is always ready to go to the battlefield, possibly facing life and death. He thought, in such a situation, how can he have the heart to fall in love and give the other party hope for the future?
Especially when faced with such an outstanding woman in front of you. On the occasion of parting, Xu Shiduo gave his gloves to Chen Lixia as a separate gift.
They stared at each other, said goodbye affectionately, and looked forward to seeing each other again. However, they will never have the chance to see each other again.
Xu Shiduo had already died, but Chen Lixia learned the news through the newspaper.
Recalling the gloves given by Xu Shiduo, Chen Lixia buried them in the ground along with the newspaper and his own sleeves to find a resting place for Xu Shiduo in Hong Kong.
This act also inspired Chen Lixia's enthusiasm for the war and his donation to the battlefield in the mainland.
She donated 1,000 Hong Kong dollars to the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, realizing Xu Shiduo's wish before his death.
The character played by Sun Zhihong left a deep impression even in the short two-episode plot.
His charisma is so unique that people can instantly recognise him. His performances evoke his roles in The Old Tavern and Top Secret Mission, which are equally impressive.
