1985

  1. A Western pop band performed in China for the first time. The performances of the British band Wham! in Beijing and Guangzhou


were a sensation. The ticket price in Beijing was 5 yuan per ticket, which was equivalent to half a week's salary for an ordinary Chinese. Scalpers sold tickets for 25 yuan per ticket. 2. Color TV village. △△ News Agency, February 17, 1985, in China, there is a new word that symbolizes wealth, that is, color TV village. Every household in this village has a color TV, and black and white TVs are outdated. The country's first color TV village is in Pinggu County, a suburb of Beijing. According to statistics from China What Says, there are currently 40 million TVs in China, compared with only 200,000 ten years ago.


3. Golf is legalized. Golf and bowling, which have long been regarded as bourgeois entertainment activities, are officially recognized as competition events.


4. The first sexology fever. Ruan Fangfu's "Sexual Knowledge Handbook" and Wu Jieping's "Sex Medicine" were published. Chen Shimei and the third party intervened, which turned into an extramarital affair, and then the lover's statement appeared. Going to bed turned into sex life, and then it turned into what say. The official term for pornographic and obscene videos is called Maopianer. Writers above the department level in Beijing rushed to buy the clean version of Jin Ping Mei. Only 1,000 copies were printed, and 19,610 words were deleted.


5. Half of a Man is a Woman, which bitterly tells the tragic fate of the Cultural Revolution. Scar literature was popular for a time, and Zhang Xianliang's Half of a Man is a Woman is the most famous one. It talked about the issue of sexual repression for the first time. One was imprisoned for being a rightist, and the other was sent to labor reform for work style problems. The two people avoided the guards in the wheat field while working and became husband and wife for half an hour. When they met again, it was 8 years later. The second half of the article is very similar to Wang Shuo's "Die After Having an Addiction", both of which describe the helplessness and mutual harm of two people from falling in love to breaking up. The difference is that Half of a Man is a Woman contains a lot of plots describing voyeurism, talking and *. At that time, the response caused by this novel was no less than the impact of Lolita on the Western world. However, unlike Jia Pingwa's "Wasteland" in 1993, Zhang Xianliang only regards sex as a cultural and life object of thinking. No matter how shocking the sexual descriptions in the book are, they are all rational and aesthetic, closely linked to the personality and destiny of the characters. In his works, sex is a kind of morality, carrying heavy connotations, rather than a seasoning for the plot of the novel.



1986

  1. Misty poetry. There are three people who created and dominated this era: Bei Dao, Gu Cheng and Shu Ting.


2. Mercedes-Benz entered China. Mercedes-Benz (China) Co., Ltd. was established.


3. Bikini. The 4th National Bodybuilding Competition was held in Shenzhen. The bikini girls' competition on the stage was criticized.


4. Table tennis is everywhere. Even roadside snack bars or small repair shops have table tennis for customers to entertain. More children skipped school to play table tennis


5. Cui Jian and the rise of Chinese rock "Xintianyou" ignited the northwest wind, and a few masterpieces became national food coupons; starting with Qi Qin and Su Rui, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists landed in large numbers, and the original singers and original works declared the demise of mainland cover songs. At this time, a guy wearing a yellow military uniform, with rolled up trousers, and an unremarkable appearance shouted out the voice of a generation with a hoarse voice: the desire for freedom, the rebellion against tradition, and the pursuit of passion. Wang Shuo once said: I almost cried when I heard "A Piece of Red Cloth" for the first time. It was written thoroughly! At that time, I felt that our thousands of words were not as good as his few words. Shuo Ye was definitely not the only one who felt this way. Cui Jian's voice was like our own doubts: Why do you always laugh at me, having nothing? ! We fell in love with his music almost without thinking. The world is changing day by day, and we don't even recognize ourselves anymore. At that time, Cui Jian's songs were the only thing we believed in. His love warmed us, his anger was our injustice, his obscurity made us restrained, and his gentleness was our voice. "Nothing" marked the mentality of an era. Since then, the music scene has been divided, and the entertainment methods have also diversified. In today's fashionable words: the power to enter the entertainment industry.



1987
  
1. AIDS KB disease. Kyodo News reported on August 13, 1987: Among hotel waiters, tour guides and other foreign tourism workers, AIDS KB disease is expanding, and the health department is doing its best to popularize correct AIDS knowledge. The most annoying job for hotel waiters is to clean foreigners' rooms. They said what if they get AIDS. Some tour guides try their best to avoid shaking hands with foreigners.

2. Breakdance. After the release of the American movie "Breakdance", the moonwalk began to sweep the mainland and was the coolest dance at the time. Some people danced on the street, attracting a large number of spectators and blocking traffic. Young people permed their hair.


3. KFC. On November 12, KFC established its first restaurant in China in Qianmen, Beijing.


4. Everything started with the mobile phone. Motorola first set up an office in Beijing and began to sell analog mobile phones (commonly known as mobile phones) to Chinese people.


5. Game halls. Spreading from cities to rural areas.


6. Fei Xiang created the first group of star chasers. His mixed-race appearance and unrestrained dancing ignited a fire in the winter. From then on, the phenomenon of worshipping stars gradually became the mainstream of urban culture. The first group of star chasers appeared.


1988
  
1. "Red Sorghum". This work, which won the Golden Bear Award at the 38th Berlin International Film Festival, marked the revival of Chinese films. Zhang Yimou and his fifth generation of directors are becoming increasingly active.


2. You can remain silent, but everything you say may be used as evidence in court. "Hunter" made this famous saying in the Anglo-American legal system known to everyone.


3. "Prisoner's Song". The audio-visual company took advantage of the release of a sentenced movie actor from prison to launch "Prisoner's Song" with the theme of the self-narration of labor reform prisoners, and the hype in the music industry reached a new height


. 4. Not suitable for children. The film "Widow Village" was listed as the first film not suitable for children because of the belly-baring clothes and the theme of missing men.


5. Na Ying made her debut. She became famous with the song "Mountain Valley" by the northwest wind. In her early years, she mostly imitated Su Rui. "The Mountain Doesn't Turn, the Water Turns" made her famous in China and established her status as the big sister of the mainland music scene. In the following 10 years, Na Ying monopolized all the best/most popular female singer awards in China.


6. Procter & Gamble. Procter & Gamble came with products such as Rejoice and Safeguard, which aroused the desire to work in foreign companies.


7. Wang Shuo Year. Four of Wang Shuo's works were adapted into the screen at the same time in this year. The literary, film and commentary circles unanimously called 1988 the Wang Shuo Year. This language genius who truly grasped the essence of Beijing dialect revived a large number of fresh and lively popular slangs, borrowed habitual words in the way of rebounding the pipa, and used ridicule to avoid the sublime, thus dispelling the serious and formal stereotypes of Chinese literature. His quotations such as "I am a gangster, I am not afraid of anyone", "I will die after having enough fun", "Don't treat me as a human being", "No seriousness at all" have become daily language in the market. From the pure love stories "Air Hostess", "Half Sea and Half Flame", "Ferocious Animals" to the humorous stories "The Troublemakers", "No Seriousness at All", "Who is More Stupid than Who", to the later "The Ignorant Are Fearless" and "The Beauty Gave Me a Sleeping Drug", Wang Shuo's distinctive folk language style has influenced the way a generation of people speak and write. More importantly, he has changed people's perspective on the world. Wang Shuo's novels have left the older generation of writers at a loss. One of them commented on Wang: "It is obvious that he is worried about immoral phenomena, but he insists that you are building a moral ideal country. You pursue faith, and he says you are mentally retarded. You call for spirit, and he says you must first solve the problem of food and clothing. You oppose materialism, and he says you are secular and anti-modernization."

In an era when conservative social culture was impacted by open culture, literary and artistic works at that time still had some substance, but now literary and artistic works are just shells that sell money.   Details Published on 2022-9-15 14:50
