Chen Daoming in Coming Home (Zhang Yimou, 2014)

Cast: Chen Daoming, Gong Li, Zhang Huiwen, Guo Tao, Liu Peiqi, Zu Feng, Yan Ni, Xin Baiqing, Zhang Jaiyi, Chen Xiaoyi, Ding Jiali. Screenplay: Zou Jingxi, Zho Xiaofeng, based on a novel by Yan Geling. Cinematography: Zhou Xiaoding. Production design: Lin Chaoxiang, Liu Jiang. Film editing: Meng Peicong, Zhang Mo. Music: Qi Gang Chen. 

Coming Home is a story of post-traumatic stress, in which the PTSD is not just manifest in particular people but in a whole society. The immense trauma of the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s and '70s was shared by an entire people, though it's embodied in Zhang Yimou's film in a single family: Lu Yanshi (Chen Daoming), his wife, Feng Wanyu (Gong Li), and their daughter, Dandan (Zhang Huiwen). Like many intellectuals, Lu, a professor, is sent during the Cultural Revolution to the countryside to work as a laborer, but he escapes and returns to his family, which has been warned by the authorities to turn him in. When he shows up at their home, Feng wants to hide him, but Dandan, an ambitious young ballet student, betrays him on the promise that she will get the lead role in a production of The Red Detachment of Women. When Lu is finally released and returns home, he finds that Dandan has given up her ballet career -- the promised lead role was denied her anyway -- and is estranged from her mother, who has never forgiven her. But Feng has suffered another trauma, which affects her memory: Not only does she forget mundane daily tasks, she also fails to recognize Lu when he appears. Because she has been told that he will be returning on the fifth of the month, she goes to the train station once every month to wait for him, returning in disappointment. Lu tries everything he can to restore his wife's memory: He pretends to be a piano tuner so he can play a song they once shared, and when a cache of letters he wrote to her on scraps of paper while in prison shows up, he reads them to her, becoming a familiar figure in her life and engineering a rapprochement between her and Dandan, but never quite breaking through the block in her memory. It's a somewhat conventional and sentimental story, but Zhang makes it work, with the special help of three exceptional actors. Gong Li gives one of her finest performances as the deeply damaged Feng Wanyu, her face revealing the exact moment when her flickering hopes of reunion with her husband are extinguished by doubt or disappointment or fear. Chen Daoming makes Lu's patient, dogged attempts to cope with his wife's disorder credible, even when the script by Zou Jingzhi sags occasionally into predictability. And Zhang Huiwen, discovered by Zhang Yimou at the Beijing Dance Academy, is both a fine dancer and an actress capable of evoking Dandan's adolescent petulance.

Rise of Sixteen States: 290 - 299

(The Migriation Crisis of 298. Also ended up including some bits from the HYGZ that are not too relevant to the rest of the stuff.)

290 – 291

(Liu Yuan)

Yang Jun assisted the government. He used Liu Yuan as General who Establishes Power and Great Chief Controller of the Five Sections, ennobled as Marquis of Hanguang district.

294

(Murong Hui)

Hui, since Dajicheng was precisely the hill of Emperor Zhuanxu, in the 4th Year of Yuankang [294 AD] therefore moved to reside there. He taught to mulberry farm, and his laws and regulations were similar to the superior states.

295

(Fu Hong)

Aged twelve, Fu Hong's father passed on, and he replaced him as leader of the section. He excelled at studying with many adaptive plans, and he was good at riding and shooting.

296

(Li Te)

Li Te's father Mu was Hunting Commander of the Eastern Qiang. Te and his brothers were five: The oldest brother was Fu, courtesy name Xuanzheng. The next was Te (courtesy name Xuanxiu). Te's younger brother was Xiang, courtesy name Xuanxu. Xiang's younger brother was Liu, courtesy name Xuantong. Liu's younger brother was Xiang#, courtesy name Xuanlong. All were sharp and gallant, and had martial capability.

Te as young served the province and commandery, and was seen as unusual in his times. He was eight chi tall, was valiant, martial, and good at riding and shooting. He was deeply resolute and had great measures.

(HYGZ: 6th Year of Yuankang [296 AD], again considered Liang# and Yi provinces to be weighty provinces. Moved the Inspector of Yi province, Li# ??? to have Liang# province, concurrently General of Talented Officials. The General who Spreads Fervent, Zhao Xin, concurrently General of Smashing Charges.)

Middle of Yuankang [291 – 299], Qi Wannian of the Di rebelled, West of the Passes were disturbed and in chaos. Tianshui, Lüeyang, Fufeng, and Shiping commanderies were all robbed by troops.

(HYGZ: The Di of Guanzhong and the Qiang of Malan rebelled. They robbed Tianshui, Lüeyang, Fufeng, Shiping, Wudu, and Yinping. Issued out the [Inspector of] Liang# province and the [Colonel of] the Eastern Qiang and the [General] who Garrisons the West to chastise them. They did not overcome. Yi province dispatched Ma Xuan and Yin Fangjiu of the Serrated Gates to assist them. They used deer carts to transport grain from Chengdu to provide army provisions.)

(Yang clan)

The Yang clan of the Di of Qingshui in Lüeyang from Qin, Han and onwards, had for generations lived in Longyou, and been a prominent family. In the middle of Emperor Xian of Han's Jian'an [196 – 220] there was Yang Teng, he was a great leader of the section family groups.

Teng's son Ju was brave, strong and with many plans and schemes. He was the first to move to Chouchi. The land of Chouchi has an area of 100 [bai] qing, because of that he used Baiqing as the title. On four sides it was steep and sheer. The lofty flat land [?] has an area of more than 20 li. The road coils like goat intestines for thirty-six rotations. On top of the mountain is the source of the Feng river. Cook the earth to achieve salt.

Ju's descendant had the name Qianwan. Wei ennobled him as King of the Baiqing Di. Qianwan's son [or?] grandson was named Feilong. They gradually became vigorous and abundant. Wu of Jin made use of him as General who Conquers the West. He returned to live in Lüeyang. He had no sons, he raised his sister's child of the Linghu clan as his son. He was named Wusou. [In WS he named Maosou.]

In Emperor Hui of Jin's 6th Year of Yuankang [296 AD], to escape the chaos of Qi Wannian, he led 4 000 families of the section group to turn back and guard Baiqing. He titled himself General who Assists the State and Worthy King of the Right. Many of those people and gentlemen of Guanzhong who ran in flight relied on him. Wusou invited and admitted, consoled and connected. If they wished to leave he then guarded, protected, supplied and dispatched them.

298

(Li Te)

Among the Di there were in one year after the other great famine, the hundred families drifted and moved to go looking for grain. Those who joined each other to enter Hanchuan [I. e. Hanzhong] were several ten thousand families. Li Te followed along the drifting people about to enter Shu. When they arrived at Jiangge, he sat down legs sprawling with a great breath, looked up at the narrow defile, and said:

Liu Shan had land like this, yet he faced bound up to [other] people. How was he not of mediocre talent!

Those who were migrating together with him, Yan Shi, Zhao Su, Li Yuan, Ren Hui, and others all sighed in amazement.

Earlier, when the drifting people had arrived in Hanzhong, they sent up a letter seeking to depend on the food in Ba and Shu. The court discussed and did not allow it. They dispatched the Attendant Steering Clerk Li Bi to Hold the Tally and comfort and reassure them, and moreover to oversee and examine them, and not make them enter Jiange. When Bi arrived in Hanzhong, he accepts goods and gifts from the drifting people. He turned around and made a petition which said:

The drifting people are more than 100 000 mouths, not something Hanzhong, a single commandery, is able to raise support for. Down east into Jing province, the river current is swift and dangerous, and also they have no boats or ships. Shu has granaries and storehouses, and the people repeatedly have abundant harvests. [We] ought to make them go there for food.

The imperial court followed him, and so they scattered to be in Yi and Liang#, and could not be forbidden or halted.

(HYGZ: 8th Year [of Yuankang], Zhao Xin arrived in province. Though he honoured the simple and restrained, by nature he was really extravagant and haughty.

A commoner of the six commanderies of Lüeyang and Tianshui, Li Te, his younger brother Xiang, Yan Shi, Zhao Su, He Ju, Li Yuan, and others and several ten thousand families of the Di Sou and the Blue-green Sou, since their sundry lands for continuous years had been laid waste by the armies, went [looking] for grain and enter Hanchuan. A decree written that they were not allowed to enter Shu.

Yi province directed the passes to forbid them, but the Board of Household [official] Li Bi opened the passes and set them free to enter Shu. They dispersed and spread out in Liang# province and the regions of the Three Shu.

Huang Shi from Xingle county in Minshan, Cheng Tunjian, An Jiao, Cheng Mingshi of the Lushui Hu of Beidi and others, were enemies of with the Wenjiangliu [?] and Zili Qiang of Guangrou and Pingkang Thereupon they together with Zhi Feng of the Bangtong Qiang [?] and others with several thousand cavalry threatened the county prefect, and sought aid to chastise the Zili. The Grand Warden, Yang Binta, killed Tunian, and took the surrender of his remaining kin. The remaining kin thereupon thereupon rebelled, and killed the senior functionaries.

Winter, the Colonel of the Western Yi, Qu Bing of Xiping, petitioned to set out with the army. He dispatched the Commander of the Serrated Gates, Sun Tiao, as Controller-Protector, and lead ten thousand people to campaign against them. They fought at Chang'an常安 and greatly were routed by the Hu.)

299

(HYGZ: 9th Year [of Yuankang], Qu Bing, due to the defeat of his army, was summoned to return.

Summer, employed the Grand Warden of Jiangxia, Cheng Zong, as his replacement. The Hu withdrew and dispersed.)

Yuankang era (291 – 299)

(Liu Yuan)

At the end of Yuankang [291 – 299], Liu Yuan was charged with the section population rebelling and setting out from the frontier, and was dismissed from office.

(JS004 records a rebellion by the Xiongnu leader Haosan in 294, and his brother Duyuan in 296. Yuan's dismissal could have been related to this. Duyuan's followers included Malan Qiang, and the Malan Qiang later the same year also joined Qi Wannian. There could well have been Xiongnu among Wannian's followers as well.)
