The book "Fortress Besieged" was written by Qian Zhongshu's "accumulation of money and money". The novel has no clear story clues, but only some trivial plots "pieced together" from the author's trivial insights and experiences. Generally speaking, a book with a trivial plot must have excellent verbal expression to become a successful work. Zhong Shujun's "Fortress Besieged" really uses language to the highest level. Therefore, when reading "The Besieged City", you cannot just focus on the plot and ignore the language like reading ordinary novels. If that is the case (ignoring the language), "The Besieged City" will lose its meaning of existence. The clever words and witty words in "Fortress Besieged" are the most successful part of this novel and the most worthy of appreciation. Qian Zhongshu is good at using metaphors. There are two kinds of metaphors in "The Besieged City". One is the image metaphor that describes the scene and things realistically, which makes people feel comfortable when reading and feels just right. The second is to use concrete objects to describe abstract thinking and feeling, or vice versa, which makes people feel novel and mysterious when reading. In the opening paragraph, "The night is like paper soaked in oil, turning into a translucent body. It is embraced by the sun and cannot be distinguished. Perhaps it is intoxicated by the sun, so the night after the sunset is also tinged with red." "This sentence mixes metaphor and personification. The whole sentence is smooth and natural without any pretense. This is also the first metaphor I mentioned. It is very common in the book. It is also like the description of five people on their way to Sanlu. "The rain is getting heavier and heavier. As time goes by, the water spots are like threads, and the surface of the river looks like a pimple. There are countless pockmark-like water eddies, which are constantly growing and dying. When the rain lines become denser, it looks like hair is growing on the smooth water. "" "Lao Cheng" is used on the rain. It can be said that Mr. Qian is the only one who uses it well! Yusumi said that "hair grows" on the surface of the water, which is a novel image, but it is just right! The second metaphor is more common and is the highlight of the book. Occasionally I pick up "Fortress Besieged" just to "play" with these wonderful metaphors. In the first chapter, "The child is less than two years old, has a flat nose, two diagonal slits for his eyes, his eyebrows are high, and his eyes are so far apart from each other that he gets lovesickness." It's so wonderful that it can be used like this. People can't help but admire and marvel. Hongjian had accomplished nothing in his studies. In order to have an explanation when he returned to his hometown, he had to buy a fake diploma. "This diploma seems to have the function of the leaf on Adam and Eve's lower body, which can cover up shame." A diploma reminds me of " Adam and Eve in the Bible were really thoughtful! Hongjian had an idea in response to Miss Bao's seemingly casual remark, "We are all sleeping alone today." He returned to the cabin and said, "It's as uncomfortable to give up the idea as it is for a woman to have an abortion when she's pregnant." It is indeed difficult to give up that idea. It is like a woman having an abortion, which is really uncomfortable! When giving an unscripted speech at the county provincial middle school, Hung Chien said that only opium and syphilis would last forever in Chinese society, causing the girl who wrote the note to " blush and stop writing, as if she had heard Hung Chien's last sentence, virginity The ears have lost their virginity in public”. The reason why the ears lose their virginity is because filthy words enter the ears. How masterful is Mr. Qian in this application of transposition! Mr. Zhang, who wanted to recruit Hongjian as his son-in-law, liked meaningless English words embedded in Chinese. Mr. Qian said, "The English words embedded in the speech are not as good as the gold teeth embedded in the mouth, because the gold teeth are not only decorative, but also beautiful." The use of it is just like the scraps of meat embedded in the teeth, indicating that the food has been eaten well, and it is useless beyond that." This comparison is both accurate and vivid. After this comparison, the true face of a vain fake foreign devil is revealed! Fang Hongjian returned the letter to Miss Tang, "His personal world was suddenly separated from the world where ordinary people live, like a lonely ghost isolated from the living people, looking at the pleasures of the world, unable to get in, Looking at the sun in the Yangshi world, I can’t get enough of it.” The world of broken love is dark and lonely, and it is an abstract feeling, but here, it has become a concrete thing that people can see and touch. To see what was even better at the beginning, Hongjian went to Zhao Xinmei’s Western-style apartment. “Before I entered the door, I heard that the radio in the apartment seemed to be turning on, broadcasting the popular "Spring Love Song". The shrill voice was torn to pieces------The female star's sweet voice was shrill and turbid, mostly like snorting from the nose, greasy, sticky, weak, and the main product of a nose, snot. have the same character". Haha, the female star was so exposed that she was so naked that she died. Mr. Qian is accustomed to using this kind of naked and ruthless irony.

Hearing Xin Mei say that the best man was "interested in Tang Xiaofu", Hongjian's heart was agitated. "My mind is racing with the pain in my heart. I have to run fast and don't let the pain catch up with me and talk nonsense." It seems that throwing some obstacles can temporarily stop this painful pursuit, so I talked about a lot of scenes on ships going overseas." The method of turning abstraction into concreteness and virtuality into reality is still masterfully crafted by Mr. Qian. Although these metaphors are novel and sometimes humorous, they still make people laugh incompletely and incompletely when they are humorous. Because there is always such a feeling in my heart: I am laughing at others running naked on the crowded street, and suddenly I find that I am only wearing a pair of underpants to cover up my shame. This has a good explanation. The car got stuck in the mud ditch and refused to leave. "The driver yelled and cursed, and he cursed even more fiercely at this moment. The scolding continued, but there was only one meaning: the driver was willing to talk to the car's mother and grandmother. Have physical love." After reading this, I couldn't help but laugh, and I suddenly felt that this was talking about myself, and my laughter stopped suddenly! The truth behind some metaphors is also worth pondering, such as "A person's shortcomings are like a monkey's tail. When the monkey squats on the ground, the tail is invisible. When the monkey climbs up a tree, the tail is provided for him." The public admires them, but the red buttocks and long tail are already there, not a new sign of higher status. "Being an official reminds people of corruption. In fact, the real cause of corruption is that there is a seedling of corruption growing in his heart. It's just that once you become an official, if you apply fertilizer well, the seedlings will grow as tall as a canopy and can't be stopped! The language is sharp, the sarcasm is sharp, the humor is humorous, and the witty lines are endless. This is my evaluation of "The Besieged City". Of course I It is possible to have short knowledge and incomplete generalizations. There are many passages in "Fortress Besieged" where almost every sentence can be pondered and savored slowly. The above mentioned are just a drop in the bucket for the rest of the appreciation. I really want to understand "Fortress Besieged" It’s better to experience it yourself and understand its connotation! Excerpted from Baidu. .
