Liberate yourself Chapter 23

I am a photographer and I have a special interest in photography. Focus on life with a lens, leave happiness with light and shadow, focus on everything with a camera, and record life with images. In fact, there is a story hidden behind each photo.

I have collected a special photo of my mother, which was taken by my mother as a mass actor when she participated in the film "Fire of the Stars". This is just a very ordinary standard photo, but the story behind the photo is inspiring.

The mother’s photo story should be bland, but shortly after taking this photo, she actually pulled out the story behind a photo of an amateur movie star: In 1936, a wedding sensationalized the whole of Shanghai. Why is a wedding a sensation on the beach, because this is a collective wedding. Three couples accompanied West Lake to take photos and held a ceremony under the Liuhe Tower. Three pairs of newcomers are the movie stars in Shanghai's film industry: Zhao Dan and Ye Luqian, Gu Erjie and Du Xiaojuan, Downer and Lan Ping. It was the celebrities who held the wedding ceremony for them. The witness was the national salvation leader Mr. Shen Junru Lao, and the host was the famous director Zheng Junli.

Gu Erji in the photo and my uncle Shen Shuofeng are friends in the movie entertainment industry. Lan Ping in the photo is Jiang Qing, Mao Zedong's last wife. It was precisely Lan Ping in this photo that created a series of injustices during the Cultural Revolution. Gu Er was persecuted and committed suicide. My uncle Shen Shuofeng was criticized and he withdrew from performing arts.

Since my father was beaten to the right in the painful anti-right movement, the whole family has been in panic. My mother has no job. My 14-year-old brother became a little carpenter, which caused a burden on the whole family. My big brother must take care of me and my sister.

In those years, my mother’s friends were mainly my uncle’s wife. Uncle Shen Shuofeng is my father's brother. My uncle and my father are the same father, but not the same mother.

My cousin sent me a message in the circle of friends: "My father's ancestor lived in the third room, and you are the second room. The grandfather died early, and his father passed it on to his uncle during his childhood. That's your grandfather. The second uncle left home for the revolution. My aunt lives in my house. Therefore, I lived with my aunt since I was a child. Your elder brother is the only "brother" in my childhood. The second uncle organized a person to bring an aunt to reunite in Shenyang. I also know that the second uncle and the three uncles applied together to allow my father to enjoy the preferential treatment of military family members. The aunt is the longest girlfriend, and I also go to your home There are vague memories in the villa, when my family was about to eat, the aunt’s family seemed to have a man, a woman and two babysitters. After the ups and downs, we will be familiar with them and sisters like brothers. Uncle and third uncle I have lost contact for a long time. Only you, there is still a connection. My father is also a sinister sacrifice of people. Even the ups and downs of my life. But life is still fair. We all have a well-dressed old age. Therefore, I hope you can let go Everything in the past, live a happy life and support each other."

My uncle was a famous broadcasting company in Shanghai. He has hosted special programs such as Shuangfeifeng, Miao Yinxi, and hosted dramas on radio stations such as Damei, Huatai, and Youlian. He was even the predecessor of Yao Wushuang and Zhou Baichun. When I attended the celebration celebrating the 60th anniversary of Yao Wushuang and Zhou Baichun, when Yao Wushuang and Zhou Baichun knew that I was Shen Shuofeng's nephew, Yao Wushuang and Zhou Baichun and their couple were very happy to take a photo with me. I still cherish this photo. In fact, when I was still forced to work on the farm, Zhou Baier, Zhou Baichun's daughter, and I worked on the front farm of Chongming. We have a good relationship.

In 1959, the movie "Spark" started shooting. Director: Gu only. Starring: Xiao Aiqin, Zhu Huiqin, Gu Zhichun. My uncle plays an accountant in the play.

The movie "Spark" tells such a story:

In 1925, Yang Guiying (Xiao Aiqin), a rural woman, died in her rural home, her husband died of illness, and the landlord forced debts. She had no choice but to come to Shanghai with her 16-year-old son Shuangxi, looking for her daughter, Zhenzhen, who was working as a "package worker" at the spinning mill, and hoped to find a job for herself. Baoshou Zhuang, the fourth senior, relied on the package of deeds in his hand to prevent their mother and daughter from meeting. When Yang Guiying was desperate, he happened to meet Liu Ying (Shao Bin Sun), a Communist Party member who led the workers' movement, and Gao Hong and Gao Xiaomei, siblings who worked with her daughter. With their help, Yang Guiying's mother and son entered Qinghua's factory to work. Two months after entering the factory. She went through all possible means to find Xiaozhenzi. At this time, Xiaozhenzi had been beaten to death by Toyo Po. The death of Xiaozhenzi caused a great deal of anger among the workers. They asked the Japanese capitalists to improve their treatment. Gao Hong took the lead in negotiations with the Japanese Daban Kawamura. As a result, Gao Hong's siblings, Yang Guiying's mother and son, and many workers were expelled.

In addition to performing arts, Uncle Coven also opened a small pharmacy and treated patients for medical treatment. He had many opportunities to reach the civilian population. Therefore, director Gu Ji has asked him to find some mass actors, and he recommended many poor people to be the workers of the spinning mills in the film. He knows that my mother's family is in a difficult situation and always gives some help. Mother was also recommended. According to regulations, the mass actors who participated in the filming should also be screened, that is, take a standard photo and let the director look at it. This is why the mother took this standard photo.

Gu Zhijie (1915.5-1970.6.18), formerly known as Erqi, the word axe Huai, movie star, director, film artist, from Nantong, Jiangsu, member of the Chinese Agricultural Workers’ Democratic Party, member of the Shanghai CPPCC.

Gu Er was born into a wealthy, culturally rich family. His father Gu Jingji was one of the early Japanese students in China. He was open-minded and advocating science. He founded the private Chongjing Middle School and was also a theater enthusiast. This has had a profound impact on Gu.

At that time, Zhao Dan's father opened a movie theater in Nantong. Gu Er often watched movies there, so he met Zhao Dan and the two became friends. After entering middle school, Gu Erzhe and his classmates Zhao Dan, Zhu Jinming, Qian Qianli and a group of students who love drama often looked around for dramas. In the second half of 1928, they organized the "Small Little Drama Club". He has directed stage shows such as "Southward Return" and "Suzhou Night Story", and performed at some local parties and entertainment parties, which is very popular.

In 1930, Gu Er was admitted to Shanghai Datong Middle School and participated in the organization of Datong Drama Club. In February 1931, Zheng Junli and Zhao Mingyi went to Nantong to guide the establishment of the Nantong branch of the drama association, and the small drama club collectively joined the Nantong branch. The following year, Gu Er joined the Chinese Communist Youth League.

In 1933, due to the rehearsal of "The Drop Your Whip", "Ran Bell" and "Wu Kui Bridge" by the Little Theatre Company, a series of progressive dramas that promoted anti-Japanese patriotism and exposed dark reality were banned, and Gu had returned to Shanghai. Invest in the left-wing drama movement in full swing.

In 1935, Gu Er joined the Shanghai Amateur Drama Association and the Chinese Left-wing Dramatists Union. The Shanghai Amateur Dramatists Association is led by the Drama Federation and brings together many first-rate talents in the drama industry at that time. In November of the same year, he starred in "The Minister of Mission", with the exaggerated and appropriate performance of a vain and greedy mayor as the best, and was regarded as the "most performable actor", which made him famous and famous on stage.

In 1936, he once again successfully played the role of "Mayor" in the film "Carnival Night", which was adapted from "Minister of Mission" by Shanghai Xinhua Film Company. This first "electric shock" expanded its influence and made it into the ranks of well-known actors. Since then, Gu Er has joined Xinhua Pictures as a professional film actor.

Gu Er has participated in Xinhua Films' four films "Little Orphan", "Youth March", "Long Sorrow" and "Diao Chan". Among them, the corner of Dong Zhuo he played in "Diao Chan" was well received by the audience and was hailed as "Charles Lawton of China (a famous Hollywood character actor)."

In 1937, he performed a passionate three-act drama "Defend Lugou Bridge" with nearly 100 well-known actors in the film and television industry. He then joined the Shanghai Salvation Drama Team No. 3, devoted himself to the anti-Japanese salvation torrents, and performed dramas such as "The Forbidden City", "Long live the nation" and "Hometown" in Wuhan, Chongqing and Chengdu. At the same time, he also participated in the films "Chinese Children" and "Long Sky" shot by the Central Film Studio.

In 1942, in order to break the cultural repression of the reactionaries, Gu Ji has joined the China Dramatic Arts Society. In the case of leg problems, he insisted on completing the five-act five-hour drama "Rejuvenation of the Earth".

In the later period of the Anti-Japanese War, he played King Chu Huai in "Qu Yuan" written by Guo Moruo. Due to the long-term study of the performance skills of senior actors, and the attention to the rough and simple performance characteristics from foreign actors such as Charles Lawton, Gu Er has successfully performed "Chu Huaiwang" in his own style, which also marks its presence in Artistic maturity.

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Gu Ji has participated in "Golden Tide" and "Before and after Qingming", joined the China Art Theater Club led by the Southern Bureau of the Communist Party of China, and served as the manager of the department. Soon after, he returned to Shanghai to sign as an actor at the Central Film Studio, and wrote "The Return of Yi Jin", which exposed the Kuomintang's acceptance of the heroes, and then participated in the shooting of "Happy Rhapsody".

My uncle met Gu only during this time. But soon, Gu Er went to Hong Kong.

It was the winter of 1947. The Kuomintang government stepped up the persecution of the progressive literary and artistic workers in the mainland. Gu Jiwei and others were invited by the director of Hong Kong Yonghua Film Company, Bu Wancang, to go south to film. In the process of filming "The Soul of the Country", he discovered the close relationship between the company boss and the four big families and the Kuomintang reactionaries, and the idea of ​​detachment emerged.

In 1948, with the support of Lu Xuzhang, a member of the underground party of the Communist Party of China, Gu Er has come forward to organize the Daguangming Film Company to shoot progressive films. However, under the circumstances of Hong Kong at that time, it also took a lot of risks, such as the loss of the box office and the obstruction of the British Hong Kong authorities.

At the beginning of the business, the company had no funds, no studios, no fixed actors, and several founders held several positions: both as director, director, actor, and producer, as well as planning funds. During the four-year period from 1948 to 1951, "Great Light" shot a total of four films: "Wildfire Spring Breeze", "Water Family", "Little Two Black Marriage" and "Poetry Heirloom".

In 1950, on the eve of the liberation of Shenzhen, Gu was happily carrying a hand-held camera and braved the bullets and rain. He alone crossed the barbed wire of the Kuomintang army and captured the precious historical footage of the collapse of the Kuomintang army and the pursuit of victory by the PLA. After the liberation of Shenzhen, during his visit to relatives in Hong Kong, his brother Gu Erhao wrote a script "Yangtze Riverside" that reflects the Liberation Army's cross-river and Jiangpan villagers' active participation in the war. Just when Gu Ji was going to put it on the screen, the Hong Kong authorities said that if they filmed the story of the Liberated Area, they would not be allowed to sell film. In desperation, he had to switch to the film "The Poetry and Heirloom" that exposed the cruel destruction of young men and women by feudal rites.

My uncle saw Gu again in 1951.

In March 1951, at the call of Xia Yan and Yuan Muzhi, Gu Erwei waited to get rid of the persecution of progressive filmmakers by the Hong Kong authorities and moved "Great Bright" back to Shanghai. The first film after moving back to Shanghai was "Peace Pigeon", which reflects the story of Chinese medical workers who resisted the US and aided North Korea. The second film is "Pearl Fang", which depicts the story of the torn and damaged performers who turned over and liberated.

At the end of 1951, Shanghai included eight private film companies including "Great Bright" into the state-owned "Shanghai United Film Studio". Gu Er has officially become a full-time director of the state-owned Shanghai Film Studio. Since then, he has co-directed or directed the feature films "Tian Luo Di Wang" (1955), "Spring Is Coming" (1956), "Song of Fire Fighting" (1958), "Underground Route" (1959), "Liaoyuan" (1962), etc. ; Opera dramas include Huangmei Opera "The Celestial Match" (1955) and "Huaiyinji" (1963); Shanghai Opera "Arhat Money" (1957) and "Star Fire" (1959).

Gu Erzhe had more contact with my uncle during the filming of "Arhat Money" and "Star Fire".

Gu Ji has matured with the arts. In addition to inheriting his own simple performance style, the films he directed also have delicate, fresh, and fast-paced characteristics, which are prominently shown in the "Lohan Money" play. In addition, he directed "Sparkle of Fire", which has gratifying achievements in the use of lens cut, scene scheduling, and the pursuit of nationalization.

My uncle has had more contact with Gu because he knows him better. When chatting with art friends at ordinary times, he often said: Gu Er is a quite famous "amphibious" actor, an artist who edited, directed, and acted in more than 40 dramas and more than 30 films. He put his own He devoted his life to the people's drama and film career and created a colorful artistic image. He occupies a proper position in the Chinese drama and shadow art gallery.

Unexpectedly, it was these praises that praised Gu only, so that my uncle was criticized during the Cultural Revolution, and tortured him was actually his students.

The film "Liaoyuan" should be the most valuable drama in Gu's career. At that time, the impact of three years of natural disasters had not been eliminated, and the people’s lives were extremely difficult. Gu Er has come to Anyuan Coal Mine to go deep into life and take pictures on location. Not only did he go down to the depths of the mine to carefully observe the work of miners, but he also visited many old workers who participated in the strike of Anyuan Coal Mine, and found the party history and workers' movement. Historical materials are read very carefully.

Gu Er didn't expect to overthrow President Liu Shaoqi at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution. The film "Liaoyuan" was criticized as a big poisonous grass, and it was a tribute to Liu Shaoqi.

Gu Er has been defeated.

In fact, during the "Cultural Revolution", the real reason for Gu Erji's overthrow was that he had been in contact with Jiang Qing before he was persecuted.

This involves two old stories.

First, on April 26, 1936, three pairs of artists Zhao Dan Ye Luqian, Tang Najiang Qing and Gu Ji Du Xiaojuan were collectively married in Hangzhou.

In 1936, there was a "Gossip" subtitled "Red and Green", specializing in all kinds of entertainment news. There is a report in the fifth issue of the first volume of the journal: "Group Marriage of Six Artists", a brief history of the combination of six people, saying that they originally planned to take a seat at the La Xuesi Dance School (run by writer Lin Weiyin), collective Co-starred in a one-act play, acting as a wedding ceremony. However, this romantic ceremony was canceled for some reason, and they decided to simplify the form, and invited a famous lawyer, Shen Junru, to be a witness to the wedding, and went to West Lake in Hangzhou to take a photo under the Liuhe Tower, and the wedding was successfully completed.

The trip to Liuhe Pagoda was proposed by film critic Donner, who has more cultural background among the six, and the meaning of "Liuhe" and "Liuhe" was adopted, and finally everyone's consensus was obtained. In the early morning of April 25, three new couples and introducers Zheng Junli, Li Qing, and witnesses Shen Junru and others departed from the West Suburb Fanhuangdu Bus Station and arrived in Hangzhou at 1 pm. They visited the West Lake together.

Secondly, the old temple of Baiyue Temple under the moon, the original site no longer exists today. It used to be a prosperous resort. The signing of the Moon Old Temple, especially made the majority of unmarried men and women and even literati and scholars worried. Legend has it that they used to be in the old man shrine under the moon in Baiyun Temple by the lake, and they all fought for signatures and made fun of each other with the obtained labels.

What stories are hidden in these old photos? It was not until the end of the Cultural Revolution that it gradually surfaced. In the first issue of "Century Style" in 2001, the author Meng Dong wrote an article entitled "A Cooperation Between Jiang Qing and Ye Qun".

After the official start of the Cultural Revolution in 1966, Jiang Qing served as the first deputy leader of the Central Cultural Revolution Group. From the first day to Yan'an, Jiang Qing has not forgotten what she did in Shanghai in the 1930s. The original Lan Ping was renamed Jiang Qing, but his history could not be erased. Former acquaintances swayed in front of her eyes from time to time, seeming to intentionally remind her not to forget the past. Jiang Qing tried every means to find opportunities, on the one hand forged his own history, on the one hand attempted to destroy all evidence against her. For example, her close contacts with Kuomintang special agent Cui Wanqiu, several letters she wrote to her former friend Zheng Junli, and so on. She wants to use one of her mouths to change the past history, use one hand to wipe out the traces of history and influence the future history.

In June 1966, Zhang Chunqiao was summoned by the film artist Zheng Junli with Jiang Qing's "decree". Zheng Junli is the host of the wedding of Liuhe Tower in Hangzhou in April 1936, and is the bridesmaid of Donner and Lan Ping. In addition to the pair of Downer and Lan Ping, there are two other pairs: Zhao Dan and Ye Luqian, Gu Jiege and Du Mingjie Xiaojuan. At this time, Zheng Junli was already a "black line" on the "black list." For 30 years, the phrase "Thirty Years of Hedong and Thirty Years of Hexi" really happened, and things changed in the world, Tang Na went overseas, and Zheng Junli and Jiang Qing turned into enemies from friends. Zhang Chunqiao and Jiang Qing have become close comrades-in-arms in the trenches, and it is time to deal with Zheng Junli together. And Zhang Chunqiao is already a flamboyant figure in Shanghai, and naturally he is cold-eyed and arrogantly indifferent to the opposite of Zheng Junli. Zhang Chunqiao first gave Zheng Junli a lesson with a severe face, warned him to stand firm in the movement and correct his attitude, and reform as soon as possible to return to the ranks of the revolutionary masses as soon as possible. During the talk, the knife-and-scene official turned around and talked to Comrade Jiang Qing. Zheng Junli shivered in coldness when he heard the name, and said straight away: "Comrade Jiang Qing is now in a different position. She used to have some letters and other things in your house, and it is not appropriate to store them in your house. It is still handed over, Leave it to her to handle." He actually had a negotiated tone in his tone, and there was a murderous voice in his voice. Zheng Junli immediately agreed.

Zheng Junli returned home with anxiety, and his wife Huang Chen turned over the box, packed up a large package of Jiang Qing's photos, newspaper clippings, manuscripts, letters and other materials, and handed it to the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee Office to transfer Zhang Chunqiao, and attached a letter to Jiang Qing saying: "Please deal with it."

Jiang Qing was not satisfied with what was transferred from Zhang Chunqiao. Obviously, there was something else that made Jiang Qing feel at ease. Zhang Chunqiao talked to Zheng Junli twice. As for what he talked about, Zheng Junli still said nothing under the inquiry of his wife Huang Chen, which shows that he has already carried a heavy burden, and is afraid that it will hurt his family. Since then, Zheng Junli has been in a trance all day long, without saying a word. One day, he could not bear the torture of his heart and said to his wife: I don’t know which day, I may not be able to return.

Jiang Qing was not satisfied with Zhang Chunqiao's procrastination, she asked Ye Qun to come forward to help. On October 4, 1966, Jiang Qing personally ran to Lin Biao Mansion in Maojiawan. Lin Biao and Ye Qun greeted each other warmly. The two women held hands and were reluctant to let go. After a warm greeting, Jiang Qing whispered to Lin Biao: "We want to talk about women. Something happened." Lin Biao walked away pretendingly, murmured in his heart what Jiang Qing was going to do.

Jiang Qing and Ye Qun came to Ye Qun's bedroom to start a secret conversation.

Jiang Qing asked: "What do you mean by the proletarian cultural revolution?"

Ye Qun looked at Jiang Qing pretending to be modest and smiled but did not answer.

Jiang Qing smiled with a knife in his hand: "The Cultural Revolution is the use of revolutionary means to overthrow the people you want to overthrow."

Ye Qun suddenly and cheerfully nodded deeply.

Jiang Qing said bluntly: "You tell me your enemy, I will help you to rectify them; I tell you my enemy, you help me find a way to defeat them."

As soon as Ye Qun heard Jiang Qing asked for it, he promised with all his heart and joy: "Okay, Comrade Jiang Qing said it well. I promise you anything, I promise to complete it."

Jiang Qing cited a large list of "enemies" to Ye Qun: Wang Ying who was competing with her in "Sai Jinhua" at that time; Sun Weishi, who took her love for the talented Jinmou; Yan Yan, who prevented her from joining Mao Zedong; did not help her find out Wang Jipu, who was arrested in the archives at that time... However, the urgency of this time was to find two letters as soon as possible: one letter was a hot book written by Lan Ping to Donner in June 1936; the other was also related to Donner. It was just written to Zheng Junli, please ask Zheng Junli to help contact Donna who has gone missing overseas.

In Jiang Qing's view, Zheng Junli, who was a brother to Donner, should know the specific address of Donner. The reason why Jiang Qing wanted to get in touch with Downer was not a whim, and there were other hidden feelings. In the Spring Festival in 1957, Mao Zedong wrote a song "Your Fairy" in memory of Yang Kaihui, later known as "Dielianhua·Li Shuyi". Jiang Qing was very annoyed by this, and had a big fight with Mao Zedong, claiming that you Mao Zedong miss Yang Kaihui, then I must think of Downer. Angered, Jiang Qing wrote to Zheng Junli for help.

Seeing the letter, Zheng Junli knew that he was not the same as Xiaoke, and had several good friends to discuss together. Everyone agreed that this matter must not be done. In order to avoid provoking right and wrong in the future, the letter was burned on the spot, and Zheng Junli naturally did not "commit" to contact Downer. Despite Zhang Chunqiao's left reminder and right threat, Zheng Junli couldn't help but get the letter, which led to the imprisonment of plagiarism.

In the past three decades (from Jiangqing from 1937 to Yan'an until 1966), Jiang Qing was suppressed in China's political arena and obscured. How could he be willing to ruin his future with a few letters just after his rise. Zheng Junli handed over many letters, books, newspapers, and photos, but he didn't have what Jiang Qing was looking for. This is how Jiang Qing could sleep in bed and visit Lin Man. Jiang Qing Mi Tuo Ye Qun said: "I have a letter in the hands of a Shanghai film director Zheng Junli, or maybe Zhao Dan, Gu Zhier, Chen Liting, Tong Zhiling and others. These people are all connected together, you think of a way , Get it back." Of course, Jiang Qing didn't want more people to know the content of the letter, and further emphasized: "As for what kind of letter, you don't need to ask, anyway, it is a very important letter. You have to give me this matter. Hurry up, the sooner the better."

Ye Qun readily agreed, because Lin Biao had to rely on Jiang Qing to help him take the position of deputy commander.

The next day, Ye Qun asked Air Force Commander Wu Faxian to discuss and study the specific implementation plan. Immediately, Wu Faxian personally called Jiang Tengjiao, deputy political commissar of the Nanjing Military Region Air Force in Shanghai, to ask him to "accept a mission" in Beijing, and told him to pay attention to confidentiality during his visit to Beijing. Jiang Tengjiao immediately flew to Beijing to first accept the task from Wu Faxian, and then met Ye Qun.

On the third day, Ye Qun told that Jiang Qing had a letter in the hands of Zheng Junli, Gu Jijie, Zhao Dan and others. It was not clear who was in the hands of them, and all those in doubt should be searched. And further agreed to take advantage of the current situation and organize some reliable people to disguise as red guards and go to Zheng Junli, Gu Jier, Zhao Dan and other people to search, all "text materials", whether it is letters, notes, diaries, etc., are all confiscated , The piece of paper does not stay. Finally, Ye Qun did not forget to reiterate: "It must be kept secret."

In order to keep confidential, Ye Qun and Jiang Tengjiao also assigned numbers to Zheng Junli and others respectively, and stipulated that: when copying home, all codes should be used, and the copied materials should also be marked with codes.

Zheng Junli, who was on the verge of disaster, handed over a few photos he just found on October 7 and wrote directly to Jiang Qing: "I don't remember your letter, nor do you remember us or Zhao Dan and him Letter written by Mrs."

In the early morning of October 9, the house copying operation began. The Shanghai Air Force guards platooned soldiers into red guards, and some selected children of the Air Force cadres also joined in. The soldiers divided into five groups and acted simultaneously, rushing to Zheng Junli, Zhao Dan, Gu Jie, Chen Liting, Tong Zhiling and others. Zhou Xinfang and Yu Ling, who were originally on the list, were temporarily hooked and escaped. Zhou Xinfang’s home has been raided many times by the Red Guards, and he gave up because of the Red Guards’ guarding; Yu Ling’s family lived opposite the Air Force Guest House and stayed at home for a long time. She was shelved for fear of exposing “secrets”. Jiang Tengjiao specifically asked Beijing for this, and was approved not to check Zhou Xinfang and Yu Ling.

Before the operation, Jiang Tengjiao issued five "military disciplines": First, as long as written materials such as letters, notebooks, photos, etc. were not copied; Second, when someone asked, the answer was "Shanghai Red Guard General Command"; Third, the leader of the team Concealed pistols, but not allowed to shoot casually; Fourth, the military truck license plate number was changed or affixed with paper; Fifth, the team members in action only said, "The Air Force has a design blueprint or top-secret document lost to these people's homes", dawn All the first four o'clock must be withdrawn.

Jiang Tengjiao sat in the Shanghai Lulu Air Force Guest House and "implemented telephone command" through two telephones: one directly connected to Beijing, and requested to report to Ye Qun and Wu Faxian at any time; and one dedicated to the investigation team to report the latest progress in time. At around 1:00 a.m. on the 9th, a dozen or so men wearing big masks covering most of their faces had ghosts in their hearts that wanted to cover up. The length of the clothes was different. The wrong connection of the buttons up and down was obviously caused by a temporary dressing. The young man in the armband entered the Wukang Building mysteriously and immediately locked the door. The person in charge of watching the elevator driver then controlled the phone to avoid leaks and facilitated reporting to Jiang Tengjiao. The rest of them walked upstairs cautiously and tried to knock down Open the door and enter Zheng Junli's house. The actions of these people are not as vicious and brutal as the Red Guards. Their actions and speech are very light. They are afraid to wake up their neighbors on the same level and claim to only find important documents. The doors and windows were guarded; the curtains were drawn tightly. The searcher's actions were secret, rapid, skillful, and careful. Every corner and every detail was not overlooked. Even Zheng Junli's clothes and shoes were searched. Before leaving, they showed their true colors and warned Zheng Junli: "It is not allowed to talk about things tonight, otherwise you have to be careful about your head."

Before dawn, the sacks and the sacks found were numbered and shipped to the Air Force Guest House. Jiang Tengjiao's designated cronies were then searched, collected, and sorted. The most important materials were stored separately in a bag.

After dawn, the police stations and streets where the above-mentioned five were located have all reported to the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau and even the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee: a group of people of unknown origin copied some people's homes, and they acted in the middle of the night, sneaking, somehow. After the Shanghai authorities received the report, the investigation began immediately, but no clues were found. The children of the air force cadres who participated in the matter spoke to them: the Shanghai Air Force did it. After receiving this information, the tracing stopped immediately, and the report also reached Zhang Chunqiao and Yao Wenyuan who were kept in the dark, while Zhang and Yao were in Nanjing. Zhang and Yao figured out that after Ye Qun ordered and contacted Jiang Qing, he ordered his men: "Don't control it anymore." At this time, Jiang Tengjiao had taken all the materials to Beijing. Along the way, Jiang Tengjiao was still uneasy, worried about whether the results of this operation could satisfy the "top".

After Jiang Tengjiao arrived in Beijing, he reported directly to Wu Faxian. According to Ye Qun and Wu Faxian's instructions, the seized materials were sealed in the Air Force's confidential room, and no one was allowed to read them. One of the most important packages was taken by Ye Qun, and the next day Ye Qun called Wu Faxian and Jiang Tengjiao and said, "I am very satisfied." The so-called "above" naturally refers to Jiang Qing, from which it can be seen that Jiang Qing has seen the materials brought by Ye Qun. Obviously most of the letters or materials he is looking for are already in it. At this point, a stone in Jiang Tengjiao's heart finally fell to the ground, and he was overjoyed by the accomplishment of an unusual task and the capital to invite merit.

On one day in early January 1967, Ye Qun called Zhao Gensheng, secretary of Lin Biao's office, from the residence of Jiang Qing at Diaoyutai, and said that the Air Force would return a bag of items and asked Zhao Xian to accept it. Ye Qun would return immediately. Soon after the phone hung up, the person in charge of the Air Force Command Party Committee delivered the package. Earlier, Jiang Qing, Ye Qun and then Xie Fuzhi, the then Minister of Public Security, had dinner together at the Jiang Qing Department of Diaoyutai, discussed how to deal with the recovered materials, and finally decided "once and for all." Ye Qun immediately called Wu Faxian and asked him to send someone to Maojiawan.

When Ye Qun returned to Maojiawan in a black "red flag" car, Jiang Qing and Xie Fuzhi came together. Ye Qun invited the guests into the reception room, asked the staff to call Zhao Gensheng, took the materials from him, and questioned him: "No unpacking," Zhao answered: "No." "Then you will come to the backyard room The stove is opened, and these materials are destroyed." Zhao Gensheng just opened the stove, and Jiang, Ye, and Xie came to the house. Jiang Qing seemed extremely nervous at the moment, crossing his arms across his chest, pacing back and forth about ten steps away from the furnace, and occasionally glanced over his face with no expression on his face. Ye Qun is also a bit timid, only Xie Fuzhi is more excited, wondering whether his calmness comes from the nature of men or the power of the Minister of Public Security. Xie Fuzhi opened the bag in person and threw the material into the fire together with Ye Qun. The rising flame reflected the faces of several people. Jiang Qing looked at Ye and Xie Zi carefully and threw the documents or photos into the fire piece by piece, and their hands shook slightly. All the people present were silent, except for the flames and the sound of the paper breaking. There was no sound; Jiang and Xie didn't leave until all the evidence was turned to ashes.
