Before posting, I would like to clarify a few points:
1. This article is a novel written in the first person, and the plot is purely fictional;
2. This article is an erotic novel set against the backdrop of the Cultural Revolution. The Cultural Revolution is merely used as background, and I do not intend to discuss political rights and wrongs because of it.
Also, I am foolish and have never been able to edit according to the prescribed format. Please forgive me and help me, moderator.
Foreword
At the request of netizens, I will provide a brief introduction to the background of this article and related matters
(I don't know if this complies with the forum rules. If it does not, please delete it, moderator).
The Cultural Revolution—short for the Cultural Revolution. Start and end dates: May 1966 to October 1976. It was
the most turbulent period since the founding of the People's Republic of China, also known as the "Ten Years of Turmoil" or the "Ten Years of Catastrophe".
The Red Guards were a nationwide mass rebellion organization primarily composed of university and middle-aged students. In reality, as far as I
know, many people in their thirties and forties also wore Red Guard armbands and became Red Guards, as did many illiterate individuals
. Wang Hongwen once proposed merging the Red Guards with the Communist Youth League, as the Youth League organization was
completely paralyzed at that time.
The Little Red Soldiers were similar to the Red Guards, a rebellion organization in primary schools, young revolutionary pioneers. Because the Young Pioneers were
paralyzed, those who joined the Little Red Soldiers were essentially equivalent to Young Pioneers.
The Rebels were a nationwide mass organization that used rebellion as its primary means. Many participants were Red Guards,
but not only Red Guards, as it also included many workers and peasants. From the provincial to the county level, the public security, procuratorate
, and courts, universities, grassroots street offices, and people's communes, all were seized by the Rebels, thus paralyzing them. Many
precious cultural relics and treasures, as well as a large amount of intangible cultural heritage, were also destroyed by the Rebels.
The rebels were all spontaneously organized by the masses, resulting in numerous factions . These factions engaged in
debates and battles for various reasons, which later escalated into armed conflict, involving knives, guns, clubs, and even rifles and submachine guns. Some arsenals even deployed
tanks and artillery for combat, resulting in numerous deaths.
The rebels all had very left-leaning names, often using famous phrases from Chairman Mao's poems. The
"Invincible" and "Starting Over" combat teams in my novels are typical examples. Others include the "Cloud and
Water Fury" combat team, the "Wind and Thunder" combat team, the "Soaring to the Heavens" combat team, and the "All Smiles" combat team, among
many others. Besides these, some were named with numbers, such as the "815" combat team and the "226" combat team
. "
Black Five Categories"—an abbreviation for the children of the "Black Five Categories." This refers to the children of five categories of targets of the dictatorship: landlords, rich peasants, counter-revolutionaries, bad
elements, and rightists. Belonging to the class enemies, they were forbidden from joining the Red Guards, attending
school (Workers', Peasants', and Soldiers' Universities), being recruited for jobs, or freely choosing their own partners and marrying. They could only obediently accept
the control and criticism of the revolutionary masses. However, this term was rarely used in rural areas. The "Four
Categories of Elements"—landlords, rich peasants, counter-revolutionaries, and bad elements—
was a collective term and abbreviation. It needs to be emphasized that the "Four Categories of Elements" existed after the land reform, not just during the Cultural Revolution. This term was
more commonly used in rural areas and less so in cities. They were the targets of class struggle in rural areas.
Criticism and struggle sessions—this was a specific method used during the Cultural Revolution. It often took the form of mass rallies and parading through the streets
. Those being criticized had to bow their heads and bend over for long periods at the rallies, and the revolutionary masses could freely go on stage to beat, scold, and humiliate them
, such as slapping them, writing on their faces, spitting into their mouths, hanging large placards around their necks, hanging smelly shoes on them, and
stuffing smelly socks, straw, or excrement into their mouths. Those subjected to struggle sessions were forced to endure beatings, insults, and humiliation
, and were not allowed to resist in the slightest; otherwise, they would face even more brutal abuse.
These struggle sessions did not end in 1976, when the Cultural Revolution concluded, but generally ended in 1978, with some
areas continuing until 1982.
Struggle sessions were not equivalent to public trials; the former was a mass struggle against another mass, while the latter was a legitimate act of the public security, procuratorate, and courts.
The former encouraged the masses to go on stage and beat, insult, and humiliate those being struggled against, while the latter did not allow this. In the former, the struggle sessions often
ended with everyone returning home or continuing to work with the revolutionary masses, while in the latter, arrests and legal proceedings were carried out after the public trial.
The "jet plane" position—the most common form of corporal punishment during struggle sessions—forced those in the "four categories" (classes of officials, groups, and
factions) to bend over, sometimes to the lowest degree or even lower, while raising their arms high behind their backs. They were required to maintain
this position for an extended period without moving; otherwise, it was considered resistance and could result in even more brutal punishment.
The posture resembled that of a swimmer upon hearing the "ready" command—exhausting and humiliating.
Parading through the streets—a byproduct of struggle sessions—was more brutal than struggle sessions. Those paraded were often
bound hand and foot, led by ropes by revolutionary masses, and paraded among them, where the masses could arbitrarily beat, verbally abuse, and insult them.
If not properly controlled, parades often resulted in the paraded individuals being beaten to death by the masses.
Revoking urban household registration—a form of punishment against class enemies during the Cultural Revolution.
After the Cultural Revolution began, many counter-revolutionaries labeled as such in the cities had their entire families' urban household registrations revoked and were sent back to the countryside to face dictatorship
. Some were returned to their father's or mother's original rural hometown, while others were arbitrarily sent to some corner of the countryside.
My parents and I belonged to the former category, returning to my father's original rural hometown to face dictatorship. These people were naturally classified as the "four
categories of elements," enemies of the proletariat, and were subject to control and frequent struggle sessions.
The "Mass Special Task Force"—its full name was roughly "Mass Dictatorship Work Team"—was
a specialized interrogation team dedicated to the dictatorship of the so-called "Four Categories of Elements" (classified as high-ranking, low-ranking, and corrupt officials). Their interrogation methods were particularly cruel. At that time, the "Four Categories of Elements
" would be terrified just to hear the words "Mass Special Task Force," let alone be detained for a few days.
The use of quotations—at that time, speeches at meetings or the drafting of any articles had to begin with a quote from Chairman Mao
. For a period, even in everyday conversations, people would begin with a quote from Chairman Mao.
The 1980s crosstalk performance "Taking Pictures Like This" by Jiang Kun and Li Wenhua reflects this. However, in rural areas, only...
It must be used in formal settings and by four categories of people under control, while it is generally not used by poor and lower-middle peasants in informal settings
