The Hemingway who was called out for the rest of his life is the Hemingway who is considered to be a representative of tough guys, the Hemingway whose full name is Ernest Miller Hemingway, the Hemingway who has been on the battlefield several times and has been injured countless times, the Hemingway who won the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize in Literature and wrote "The Old Man and the Sea"!

For the rest of his life, he read works such as "The Sun Also Rises", "The Old Man and the Sea", and "The Snow of Kilimanjaro" written by Hemingway. Every book will have a picture of Hemingway with a beard. Although it may not be one, with this impression, it is still easy to recognize Hemingway.

It's just that the translation of Hemingway's text, which I read in later generations, is not very good. At most, it can translate the meaning completely. The artistic effect of the rhyme and the iceberg is not much reflected. But even so, Hemingway's story is tough and outstanding. Unparalleled.

However, the rest of his life never dreamed that Hemingway would meet him in a bar in Hong Kong, and Hemingway did not expect that someone would recognize him in a city with a predominantly Oriental population. Hemingway didn't speak Chinese, just a few words. And these words are also just learned.

When Yu Sheng and Zhang Ailing began to discuss the plot, they didn't care. It was only when the translator next to him understood and talked about Hemingway that Hemingway's interest was aroused. Hemingway asked the translator to quietly translate to him what Yu Sheng and Zhang Ailing discussed.

At first, Hemingway thought it was just the childish work of two young people. However, as the translation relayed, Hemingway discovered that the skills of these two young men in drama and fiction were incomparably profound! Although they have their own opinions, each hypothetical plot has a special rhyme!

It's just that with Hemingway's virtue of being married four times in his life, and with his tough guy temper, he really can't accept the ending designed by Zhang Ailing. In Hemingway's view, "Love is a game, like playing bridge." But it's not a game, it's a bid. Just like bridge, you have to pretend that you're gambling for money or something. No one mentions what the bet is. "Without love, the game is over, what the hell is old and dead?

So, I can't help but use my voice to express my opinion. After all, in his mind, even if he commented on the movie, the two young Oriental men and women would not recognize his identity. Unexpectedly, Yu Sheng called out his name and continued in a star-chasing tone: "Mr. Hemingway, I have read your writings "The Sun Also Rises", "Death in the Afternoon", and "Snow on Kilimanjaro", and I know the iceberg principle, and I know that the less, the more!" I really didn't expect to meet you in Hong Kong! ”

Hemingway's writing style was basically mature in 1932. He borrowed the famous saying of the American architect Rodwig "the less, the more", and put forward the "iceberg principle" in writing, which makes his works more charming.

Hemingway laughed and said to a woman next to him, "You see, there are young people in China who have read my book!" ”

Instead, he said to Yu Sheng: "I just went to China, and I will return to the United States tomorrow." There are not many young people like you in China! ”

The woman next to Hemingway gave him a blank look and didn't say a word. Seeing Hemingway and this woman's demeanor for the rest of his life, he remembered the information he had read in later life.

In 1940, Hemingway's marriage to Feff ended, and the anti-fascist novel For Whom the Bell Tolled was published, set in the Spanish Civil War. And when Hemingway was on the front line of the Spanish Civil War, he established a deep relationship with the female war correspondent Ge Erhong. Ge Erhong's mother and Roosevelt's wife are college best friends, so Ge Erhong can be regarded as having a deep background. Because of her deep relationship, Ge Erhong works for Currier magazine in the United States, and is often sent around the world by Currier magazine to conduct relevant interviews and reports.

In February 1941, Ge Erhong, who had just married Hemingway, was again sent by Currier magazine to the Far East, that is, China, for a three-month visit. The adventurous and travelling Hemingway was happy to go with him.

At this point, World War II has entered a stalemate. The Germans had largely taken over most of Europe and were facing off against the Soviets. The Japanese army did not make progress in China for a long time. Morale has declined, and it is no longer the sharp spirit that destroyed China in the three months of that year. Therefore, all the countries in the world that have interests in World War II are thinking about ways to break the deadlock. Hemingway and Ge Erhong's Far East investigation and interviews are basic information collection before making decisions.

In February 1941, Hemingway and Gerhong sailed aboard the Matsoni via Hawaii to Southeast Asia. Then take a flight to Hong Kong. After staying in Hong Kong for a month and learning about China's basic customs and customs, he flew by plane over the Japanese-occupied area to Shaoguan.

And Lao Jiang was pro-American from the beginning because of the relationship between the Song family. Soong Meiling has also visited the United States many times to seek assistance. Therefore, it is natural to attach great importance to the slightly politically charged interviews of well-known American journalists.

Therefore, at this time, the Kuomintang Military Committee called Li Jishen, vice chairman of the Kuomintang Field Party and Government Committee. According to the telegram, the American realist writer Ernest Hemingway has arrived in Shaoguan and will soon arrive in the war zone for a front-line investigation, and the purpose of his visit is to understand the situation of China's War of Resistance Against Japan, so he asked the staff to carefully prepare the following questions: (1) Whether China can hold on to the War of Resistance to the end; (2) If the United States supplies the aircraft, whether the Chinese pilots will use it; (3) Issues of domestic relations. He also emphasized that when interviewing, it is necessary to pay attention to the proportionality of the conversation.

However, Hemingway and Ge Erhong did not have the opportunity to stay on the front line for too long. Lao Chiang's gang also counted on Hemingway and Ge Erhong to say a few more good words about them in the report and get more assistance from the Americans.

Therefore, Hemingway and Ge Erhong only stayed for a month under the heavy protection of the headquarters of the Seventh Theater and thousands of troops and horses, and then they were invited to Chongqing by Kong Xiangxi. Then, the two men experienced the Chinese style of operation and public relations. A small banquet on three days, a big banquet on five days, delicacies from the mountains and seas, emerge in endlessly. Residence and travel are the highest reception specifications.

Lao Jiang knew Ge Erhong's background and Hemingway's influence, so he was extremely thoughtful. He and Song Meiling and other high-level executives personally received them.
