**After May Fourth, there was a collective escape of young intellectual women.
Some are running away from marriage, some are studying, and some are simply trying to get out of the control of their families.
For example, Xiao Hong, Ding Ling, and Bai Wei at that time all left the small town where they lived and went to a foreign land to find a new way out.
There is a very popular saying, called: Homesickness is an odyssey that belongs to men, and escape is an epic for women.
In the feudal era, for men, their hometown had land, resources, and connections. It's a haven of comfort.
For women, their hometown is a cage with only endless discipline and restraint.
Go out, and there will be new scenery in life.
Lu Bicheng is the leader of this trend.
Lu Bicheng, together with Xiao Hong, Zhang Ailing, and Shi Pingmei, is known as the "Top Four Talented Women".
In addition, she has many titles, she is the first female editor in the history of Chinese journalism, the first advocate of the feminist movement in China, the first female principal in China, the first female ** in China to participate in politics, and the first "China Animal Protection Society".
After accumulating wealth, she fulfilled her dream of traveling around the world.
It can be said that she is the legend herself, and she lived her life completely according to her own wishes.
In the old China, where the status of women was not high, how did Lu Bicheng break through many restrictions and live such a dazzling and chic life? Lu Xun has a saying: "Has anyone fallen into trouble from a well-off family, I thought that on this way, I could probably see the true face of the world." When Lu Bicheng was 12 years old, he truly experienced the uneven state of the world. As soon as Lu Bicheng was born, what he got was a good deck of cards. 
Her family background is prominent, her father used to be a student in Shanxi, and her mother was also from a famous family. Lu Bicheng has two older brothers, two older sisters, and one younger sister. It is rare that parents are very open-minded people, pay great attention to their children's education, and encourage their children. The children of the Lu family are all full of poetry and books, and they are talented. When Lu Bicheng was 12 years old, he wrote such a poem: "Green ants float in spring, jade dragons return to snow, who knows the subtle purpose of the hidden mother?" The night rain talks about soldiers, the east wind talks about swords, and the beauty rainbows to the sky. Eliminate the infinite hatred in the bottle. Jun unknown? It is born with pink vitex fat, and it is easy to try Lingbo micro-step cold and easy water. Dip the magnolia flowers, talk about the idleness of red purple. Liaohai is famous, I can't hate the children of the young girl, and there is nothing left, and it is written into Danqing and sent it idlely. Lu Fengqi was in a happy mood after reading it, and took this poem to his friend Fan Zengxiang to appreciate, and after Fan Zengxiang read it, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a long time. 
Lu Bicheng's handwriting came to an abrupt end when he was 12 years old. Lu Bicheng's two elder brothers died before she was 10 years old. When she was 12 years old, her father died of illness. Before Lu's father's bones were cold, the Lu clan broke into the Lu family viciously, and asked the mother and daughter to hand over all the real estate and land deeds on the grounds that the Lu family had no men. Lu Bicheng's mother refused to accept it and was imprisoned by the clansmen. Lu Bicheng, who was only 12 years old at the time, was still far away in Beijing, and when she learned of the dangerous situation of her mother and sister, she wrote a letter to her father's friend Fan Zengxiang without saying a word. After Fan Zengxiang saw the letter, he immediately personally ordered the matter to be dealt with strictly, and a large number of officers and soldiers rushed to Jingde County, and the bandits panicked and immediately released Mrs. Lu and Miss Lu Si. Those relatives saw how powerful Lu Bicheng was, and they no longer dared to act rashly. What Lu Bicheng didn't expect was that a bigger crit was still to come. Relatives were full of criticism for her writing a letter to save her mother, and the first to bear the brunt was her future in-laws. It turned out that when Lu Bicheng was 9 years old, her parents set a doll for her. The other party's surname is Wang, and he is powerful in the local area, and he is also a good match with the Lu family. After Lu Bicheng wrote a letter to save his mother, the other party proposed to withdraw from the marriage on the grounds that Lu Bicheng was too powerful and difficult to discipline. At that time, the divorce was a big deal. Withdrawing from the marriage is equivalent to saying that there is a problem with the woman's private morality. At that time, it was a great shame for the woman. 12-year-old Lu Bicheng has tasted the heat and coldness of the world, which has also triggered her thinking about women's rights and interests, and created her stubborn and transparent personality. Eventually, my mother took her sisters and went to join her brother. Lu Bicheng's uncle Yan Fengsheng served as a salt transport envoy in Tanggu, and his family was also wealthy. The mother and daughter are under the protection of their uncle, and they can be regarded as worry-free. At the beginning of 1904, she heard that the Tianjin Women's School was opened, and she was ready to sign up for study. Who knew that her uncle scolded her: "You have been divorced because you show up everywhere, and you still want to run around, it's just unseemly!" Stay at my house, do you lack food and clothing? He even began to force marriage: "You don't want to find someone to marry, what's the matter if you go out and show up?" Speaking of which, his uncle is not bad, he is willing to take in his sister and niece, and try his best to provide for them, which is enough to show his kindness. However, his pattern is so big, this is a game of two generations, and it is also a contest between feudal ideas and feminine thoughts. At this point, Lu Bicheng also realizedShe had only been lucky to have a father who was particularly open-minded and fond of her appreciation. But in fact, in that era, the space in which most women lived was still cramped and cramped. Women's edges and talents can even be suppressed. Seeing this clearly, Lu Bicheng decided to leave this oppressive environment and find a new world of his own. She hurriedly fled from home with the coil given by her mother, got on the train, and headed for Tianjin.
When he arrived in Tianjin, Lu Bicheng began to use his connections again. In Lu Bicheng's uncle's mansion, the wife of a secretary worked in the Ta Kung Pao newspaper, and she wrote a letter to the lady, asking if she could get a job at the newspaper office. At that time, Yingzhi, the founder and chief writer of Tianjin's "Ta Kung Pao", was friends with this lady. When he saw the letter written by Lu Bicheng, he applauded. 
In this way, Lu Bicheng became a columnist and editor of Ta Kung Pao. Lu Bicheng became China's first female editor, she wrote poems and essays in the supplement, focusing on the hot events in society at that time. She also wrote an article "To Chinese Female Compatriots", calling on women to receive education at the same time as men and learn useful cultural knowledge, which is the way to rejuvenate the country. She said that the way of self-improvement must be based on the development of women's wisdom and women's rights. If women cannot receive education, are suppressed and oppressed by men, and can only rely on others, it is like a person being tied to an arm, and it is impossible to strengthen the country. The article caused a sensation, and Yingzhi praised her; "I can create new ideals, think about the old and evil, and want to save 20,000 female compatriots from the claustrophobic fetters of dark hell. Since then, the supplement of Ta Kung Pao has become Lu Bicheng's private garden, where she and countless literati sang poems. 
Lu Bicheng has countless handwritings of female students and regards her as an idol; Many people with lofty ideals are proud to have met her. In the entire social circle of Tianjin at that time, there was a big landscape of "the silk curtain alone embraced the envy of others, and the salt pushed Lu Bicheng everywhere". Qiu Jin also became her fan and gave her the pen name "Bicheng". When Qiu Jin sacrificed her life for righteousness, it was Lu Bicheng who risked her to bury her, and also wrote a "Biography of the Heroine Qiu Jin" in English and published it in the newspaper, which was the earliest girls help girls. Yingzhi is a very strong person, the two do things together, and Lu Bicheng is always controlled everywhere. Even Lu Bicheng's friendship and dress were criticized. Lu Bicheng was very unhappy in his heart. It just so happened that Yuan Shikai was going to set up a girls' school in Tianjin, and Lu Bicheng was invited to serve as a Chinese language teacher and school supervisor because of his strong advocacy of women's education and his profound knowledge of Chinese language, becoming the first female principal in modern history. Now many young girls are discussing a word, called "freedom of dressing", in fact, Lu Bicheng has long been fighting for the freedom of dressing for girls. 
Lu Bicheng is a beauty and loves to dress up, she is in school, with wavy curly hair and fashionable dresses, she looks very eye-catching. 
Some people couldn't get used to it, and soon Yingzhi published an article in Ta Kung Pao, criticizing Lu Bicheng and the female teachers of the girls' school for dressing up too ostentatiously: "Neither east nor west, neither Chinese nor outside, ostentatious in the market, detrimental to the teacher's morality." As for Lu Bicheng, she chose to be positive and directly published an article to debate. Later, she didn't even associate with Ying Ji anymore. Because of her severance with Yingzhi, she was also criticized for being ungrateful. In fact, now it seems that Ying Yongzhi is indeed a bit fatherly and manages a little too much, and Lu Bicheng is just defending his sense of boundaries. In that era, a woman's slightest personality was regarded as an offense by the men around her. But Lu Bicheng is really a very self-seeking person, I am in charge of my territory, and don't want to interfere with me. 
Whoever restrains her, she will decisively choose to leave, even if it is her nobles and superiors, no exception. However, Lu Bicheng successively served as the principal and the secretary of the ** government, but later, she found that the other party just wanted to use her fame and did not care about women's rights, and it was difficult for her to realize her ambitions here. Lu Bicheng, who was disheartened with politics, resigned directly and went south. When she found that the original circle did not belong to her, she jumped out decisively and went to a new world to overcome obstacles. As a beautiful and talented leftover girl, her relationship status also makes many people care. But she is not a bachelor, and her love life is not a blank slate. She only said: There are not many men who can be satisfied in life. There are actually quite a lot of her male girlfriends, and all of them are either rich or expensive, but she is not tempted by any of them. Yuan Shikai's son Yuan Kewen was courteous to her. 
Yuan Kewen and Yuan Gongzi are proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting, not only often singing and harmonizing with Lu Bicheng's poems, but also using his power to secretly help her a lot. Being pursued by a powerful and talented person is not a realistic version of a domineering president who falls in love with me. But Lu Bicheng smiled: Yuan is a son-in-law, and he is only allowed to snuggle up in the party. Why, because Yuan Kewen's ideal partner is: "willing to be a concubine, willing to be indifferent, not uninhibited, not rude". Lu Bicheng knew that the other party only regarded himself as a Lingxiao flower, and did not see him as an independent woman. 
Lu Bicheng's handwriting friend was curious, and asked what kind of man would make her excited? She said, "My goal is not how much money I have and what my background is, but my literary status and whether the two sides can talk to each other. It's a pity that I haven't found a suitable one. Fortunately, I have a little savings on hand, so let's entertain myself with literature. Not only is she single, but she also rejects everyone's malicious speculation about her. Wu Mi wrote an essay with a few sentences, to the effect that she was talented and beautiful, but she was alone, so the poems she wrote were full of love and resentment. Regarding this evaluation of "straight male cancer", Lu Bicheng was furious and scolded him, saying that he was boring and shallow, and broke off his friendship with him. She also said later: "Time flies and there is no one who is comfortable, and the ambition of independence is so resolute." It means: "I haven't met my soul mate all the time, and I don't want to settle, so I'm still single." Somebody asked, "Why do humans crave love so much?" The answer is this:
Sometimes, people exaggerate the efficacy of love, as if to accept their own weakness. Life is incomplete without love? No, a life without ego is a blank slate.
Lu Bicheng later stopped falling in love at all and concentrated on making money. When she was thirty years old, she saw that foreign trade was a big cake, and she directly started a foreign trade business and made a lot of money. Later, he studied ** and showed his strength in financial investment. This is a strange person, no matter which field she throws her into, she can make a new world. For a time, she became "the richest woman in Shanghai".
She held a lavish party at home, invited friends from all walks of life, drank against each other, sang poetry and harmony, and was simply a female version of Gatsby. Many socialites are proud to be Lu Bicheng's guests. She likes to wear dresses, and many of her clothes are custom-made abroad, with an avant-garde style and bold style. "Nanshe Cong Tan" said that Lu Bicheng "is better than Shi Xiangyun in the dream of the Red Mansion, and he is the first to open up the modern atmosphere on the sea". Later, she also became the number one fashion icon in Shanghai, and her style attracted countless celebrities to imitate. Later, she started a global tour, went to famous foreign Internet celebrity attractions to check in, wrote a book of what she saw and thought, and published it in domestic magazines, trying her best to introduce the essence of Western civilization into China.
She also cares about charity and public welfare, whenever there is a disaster across the country, she will donate as soon as possible, and she will donate 100,000 yuan as soon as she makes a move. She was also China's first animal rights activist. On January 24, 1943, Lu Bicheng passed away at the age of 60. On her deathbed, she donated all her assets to the temple. After her death, she left her ashes without ashes, and made small balls of her ashes and flour into the sea for fish to eat. Such a burial method seemed very strange at the time. But Lu Bicheng will always be such a maverick. Why is Lu Bicheng a pioneer of women's rights? She knows how to defend herself, to defend her family property, to defend her right to education, to defend her freedom to dress, to defend her freedom to be single. She loves power and actively pursues all kinds of power, including economic, political, and cultural power, and this love of power has accompanied her throughout her life. She doesn't fantasize, she doesn't dream, but has been earnestly improving herself, writing articles, learning to do business, learning **, including later learning English and German, and operating in every field is impressive. She can deeply understand the real situation of women, actively plan for women, and fight for women's rights and interests. Practice "women's mutual assistance" to the end...In that turbulent era, her maverick and the intellectual treasures she left behind inspired generations of outstanding women in later generations. The world is stormy, and the customs are difficult, but it doesn't matter, your wisdom and courage are your biggest **. Believe in yourself, achieve yourself, you are your own wealthy.
