Besieged city: life is surrounded everywhere.
Mr. Jiang Yang wrote the preface of Fortress Besieged like this: People in the city want to escape and people outside the city want to rush in, which is mostly the wish of life, whether for marriage or career. Because of this sentence, some people are fascinated by Fortress Besieged, and some people use Fortress Besieged as a mirror to find their own shadow in life.

Life is besieged everywhere. People outside the city look up, and people in the city are trapped inside. Human nature is greedy and never knows how to satisfy it.

Fortress Besieged is Mr. Qian Zhongshu's only novel, which mainly tells the story that Fang Hung-chien, a fake doctor who returned from studying in Germany, flirted with a married woman, Miss Bao, on the boat back home and was despised by Su, a female doctor who studied in the same boat. However, after returning to China, Fang Hung-chien fell in love with Miss Su inexplicably. Fang Hung-chien was hostile to his opponent Zhao, but in fact he secretly loved Miss Su's cousin Miss Tang. Later, due to various misunderstandings, Fang Hung-chien and Miss Su and Miss Tang turned against each other completely. After Miss Su remarried, Zhao became a good friend of Fang Hung-chien and introduced his position. On the way to teach at San Lv University, Fang Hung-chien met his colleague Sun Roujia. They liked her very much and later fell in love and got married. After the marriage, the relationship between Miss Sun and Fang was not harmonious, and Fang Hung-chien was also very dissatisfied with Miss Sun's relatives, and the contradiction was once sharp. Later, they had a big fight over a trivial matter. Finally, Sun Roujia ran away from home, leaving Fang Hung-chien alone at home.

Qian Lao doesn't talk much about besieged city in this book, but everywhere people feel that there is a city around you. People in the city want to go out and people outside the city want to come in. Communication is besieged city, family is besieged city, workplace is besieged city, and marriage is besieged city. Invisible cities expose the ugly nature of greed, desire and hatred. From marriage being a "besieged city" to feeling that life is a "besieged city" at last, the full text mainly describes and writes the story of a period around the life experience of the protagonist Fang Hung-chien. Fang Hung-chien is constantly eager to break out of the "besieged city", but he has to enter another "besieged city". Life seems to be deliberately against him, always running counter to his own ideas.

Marriage (love)

"Marriage is like a golden birdcage. Birds outside the cage want to live in it, and birds inside the cage want to fly out. So leave, leave, and there will be no games. "

At the beginning of the article, it was mentioned that Fang Hung-chien didn't want to get married, and his father married him. After studying abroad, he went to every promising place. His wife, whom he had never seen before, died, and he seemed to be free again. After returning to China, Fang Hung-chien had an affair with Sue whom he met on the boat. In the face of Miss Su, who likes him, he is not madly in love, but falls in love with his lively and lovely cousin, who is about to get married with him and break up and leave because of various misunderstandings. There is a saying in the book: "Love is mostly unsuccessful, either because it is boring to get married or because it is sad not to get married." Faced with the failure of love, Fang Hung-chien chose to flee and went to college with Zhao. Later, he fell in love with Sun Roujia he met on the road and got married. But after marriage, their daily life is not satisfactory. The phrase "marriage is the grave of love" is perfect for this couple.

(professional) workplace

Fang sent Fang Hung-chien to study abroad in order to get ahead. He didn't want to get any degree, so he bought a fake diploma at the urging of his father and father-in-law. After returning to my hometown in Wuxi, I was disappointed with my job and love in the bank, so I went to the university to teach with Zhao. When he arrived at San Lv University, he didn't want to make a fool of himself, so he filled in a fake degree on his resume to achieve psychological balance. However, he was excluded by Han, director of the Foreign Languages Department, who is also a doctor at Clayton University. President Gao Songnian's disdain for him and the exclusion of his colleagues around him made him decide to return to his hometown.

The malice of honest people, like the gravel in rice or the unclean thorns in boned fish fillets, will give people an unexpected pain.

In Su's home, Su knew that Zhao was interested in her and that she was having an affair with Fang Hung-chien, but the three of them were in the same room, and she said something coquettish to make a difference. Miss Su is a proud person and always puts herself in an excellent position. Important people know that they have secrets, but they don't let others know what they are. This is the vanity of human nature. When they ask and let them guess. Personally, I think Sue is a little proud.

In contrast, Fang Hung-chien is honest and kind, and can't offend people, but he doesn't shine. I once asked Zhao, "Let me ask you, how do you feel about me after this trip?" Do you think I hate it? "Zhao replied," you don't hate it, but it's useless. "

"You don't hate it, but it's useless." Zhao's casual answer turned out to be a proverb, which summarized Fang Hung-chien's tragic character and life trend. The mediocre Fang Hung-chien is nothing.

In life, we will find the shadow of Fang Hung-chien in the people around us. Or some of Fang Hung-chien's personality defects are also reflected in ourselves.

Life is full of besieged cities. We escaped from a "besieged city" but were trapped in another "besieged city". All kinds of human nature are carefully portrayed in Qian Lao's pen. Compared with Fortress Besieged, we can understand secular human feelings, reflect on ourselves, and thus improve our attitude towards people, which may be a little insight I got from Fortress Besieged.
