"Before Dawn": What is the relationship between Tan Zhongshu and Liu Xinjie?
Not the Central Command, not the Military Command, but the Eighth Bureau of the Kuomintang Military Intelligence Bureau. Of course, there is no need to worry about whether this spy agency existed in history, but the identity dispute between Director Tan Zhongshu and Director of General Affairs Liu Xinjie continues throughout the play.
Their relationship is discussed many times in the play.
The two are from the same hometown. After Liu Xinjie became an orphan, he grew up in Tan's family. Tan's mother regarded him as an adopted son, so Liu Xinjie also called Tan's mother mom. Later, the two were admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy at the same time. After graduation, they served in the 57th Division of the Kuomintang. Liu saved Tan's life on the battlefield. In the Changde battle, two people were included in the list of dead, and then entered the so-called eighth game to this day.
Tan Zhongshu did three things in the play:
One is the Trojan horse plan.
Three hundred lurking spies were trained in isolation on the island as a new force lurking after the defeat of the Kuomintang. This plan is under the responsibility of Operation Director Li Bohan, and others have no right to interfere.
The second is Operation Moses.
Liu Xinjie broke into the club of shipping tycoon Zhuang Yunqing and used chess as a cover to control a batch of drugs purchased by Zhuang Yunqing from the United States to prevent them from falling into the hands of the Communist Party.
The third is to catch "sailors".
The purpose is to uncover our underground party organization headed by "Sailor" Duan Haiping. It is led by Intelligence Director Qi Peilin and Telecommunications Director Sun Dapu.
In addition, there is also a medical director, Ma Weiran, playing a supporting role.
Due to the betrayal of the traitor Qin Youtian, Tan Zhongshu learned that there was an undercover agent of our party lurking beside him. To this end, Tan Zhongshu secretly arranged for five division chiefs to investigate each other. As a result, a good show similar to the one between the webmaster Wu Jingzhong and his crony Yu Zecheng in "Latent" was staged, and an internal fight among the agents began.
Through reverse investigation, Sun Dapu found out that the informant phone call that killed the traitor Qin Youtian was made to Liu Xinjie's home, and handcuffed Liu Xinjie.
The strange thing is that he did not report to the director Tan Zhongshu, but instead called Qi Peilin.
Qi Peilin arrived and just asked about the situation, Liu Xinjie broke free from the handcuffs and handcuffed the two of them instead.
Liu Xinjie argued that Ma Weiran was drinking at his house during the time when Qian Yu made the informant call that night. He drank too much and fell asleep without knowing anything about the phone call.
By this time Ma Weiran had already escaped.
In the middle of the night, make highly confidential phone calls to other people's homes to report to the person you are looking for. Sun Dapu and Qi Peilin actually believed this excuse. And he continued to conceal such important clues from Director Tan Zhongshu.
Li Bohan arrested Liu Xinjie's girlfriend, who was actually Gu Yejia from my underground party. Liu Xinjie arrived, knocked Li Bohan unconscious, and rescued Gu Yejia.
Why didn't Liu Xinjie beat Li Bohan to death? There is no explanation in the play.
There can only be two reasons: First, there was no time to kill him or he thought Li Bohan was dead. The second is to deliberately not kill him so as to leave a way out for himself. No matter which one it is, it is a definite fact that Liu Xinjie got involved with the Communists and attacked his colleagues.
The next day, Li Bohan had a bandage on his head and Qi Peilin led a large number of agents to surround Liu Xinjie's car. Gu Yejia, who was in the car, used a gun to force Liu Xinjie to be a hostage and escape from the encirclement. The sniper upstairs shot Gu Yejia.
If Gu Yejia's identity had yet to be ascertained before this, then Gu Yejia's abduction of Liu Xinjie at gunpoint should have revealed her identity.
For some reason, Li Bohan gave up the pursuit, and only Qi Peilin caught up. At this critical moment, Liu and Gu could still talk to each other, until Gu Yejia died and Liu Xinjie buried her again.
By the time the agents arrived at the scene, Liu Xinjie had disappeared, leaving only Liu Xinjie's car, which had run out of gas, and a tall new grave.
Qi Peilin opened the new grave, and it was Gu Yejia who was buried inside.
At this point, the question comes:
If Liu Xinjie was an undercover Communist Party agent, it would be understandable that he would bury Gu Yejia, but his identity as an undercover agent has been exposed.
If Liu Xinjie was a Kuomintang agent, and his girlfriend was a Communist, and he kidnapped him at gunpoint, how could he bury Gu privately and escape on his own?
Therefore, this magical operation is difficult for gods to understand.
At the end of the story, before the sailor was arrested and committed suicide, he identified Liu Xinjie as the undercover agent.
Agent Li Deyuan, who sneaked into the liberated areas, escaped and also reported that Liu Xinjie was an undercover agent.
The sailor's identification was indeed a counter-intuitive strategy, aiming to muddy the water and divert the enemy's attention.
But the words of latent agent Li Deyuan were also considered false.
Tan Zhongshu, Qi Peilin, and Sun Dapu unanimously concluded that this was the "stealing of books by Jiang Qian" in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms conducted by the Communist Party.
Liu Xinjie, who publicly covered Gu Yejia's escape, was considered to have been deceived by the Communist Party.
In other words, Liu Xinjie has gone face to face with the spies with real swords and guns, but he is still considered one of his own.
In the end, Tan Zhongshu was suspended. The Eighth Bureau of Military Intelligence was abolished, and a preparatory group for the Ninth Bureau was established, with Li Bohan as acting director.
Tan Zhongshu, Qi Peilin, and Sun Dapu hijacked Ouyang, the deputy minister of justice who came to assist the Eighth Bureau. They deduced Li Bohan, who had always suspected Liu Xinjie, as an undercover agent of the Communist Party, and used Ding San to get rid of Li Bohan.
The Trojan Horse plan sponsored by Li Bohan was also canceled - note that the latent plan, which took more than a year of closed training on the island, was canceled by the enemy himself.
As a result, Tan Zhongshu was reinstated and issued a message to Liu Xinjie in the newspaper to meet him. Liu Xinjie went back to work in the bureau without hesitation.
The play also designed a unique characteristic for Liu Xinjie: he suffered a brain injury, leaving him deaf and forgetful. For this reason, he carried a flat wine flask in his pocket, took it out and took a sip when he had nothing to do, and looked like a semi-invalid person.
Let’s not talk about whether drinking can cure this disease. Just because espionage is a high-risk profession that walks on the edge of a knife and requires careful thinking and an adaptable mind, Liu Xinjie’s disease is undoubtedly a taboo for spies. This is obviously an illusion used to confuse the enemy and reduce their suspicion of him.
The reason for this conclusion is that during his high-risk spy career, the disease did not have any impact.
But what is puzzling is that he not only took out the flask to drink in front of the enemy, but also took out the flask to drink when no one was around, and even drank when he was alone in the middle of the night. Who are you drinking this for? And even such a deaf and forgetful semi-cripple can still play chess with chess masters Zhuang Yunqing and Duan Haiping. That's a job that requires a lot of mental effort.
There is a conventional logic in the theater industry: if there is a gun hanging on the wall, the gun must be fired before the end of the play. It is difficult to explain whether Liu Xinjie's characteristic is a real illness or a fake illness, and what purpose it serves.
If it's a plot added just for the sake of drama, what's the point?
What’s even more funny is,
At the end of the play, Tan Zhongshu personally presented a bouquet of flowers to the tomb of the "Sailor" and stood in salute with Liu Xinjie.
Tan and Liu had the following conversation:
Tan: It’s over, everything is over, the sailor is right, I have no faith in all of this.
Liu: How can people live without faith?
Tan: Where is your belief?
Liu: I do.
Tan: I know you have it, and I will find it too. Don't forget what I told you, it's your choice whether to stay or go. If you can come back, engrave the word sailor on his tombstone. He should be remembered.
Liu: Who will remember him?
Tan: Country, nation.
Tan: Let’s go.
Liu: Goodbye!
Tan: Goodbye!
What does this ending mean?
Tan Zhongshu pays homage to the fact that he personally arrested communists who committed suicide and then released the living Communist agents. Could it be that Tan Zhongshu, the spy leader who crazily massacred our underground party, wanted to put down his butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately?
You must know that the famous communists he directed to kill include Qian Yu, Zhou Hanting, Ajiu, Bian Rinan, Duan Haiping (sailor), Mrs. Duan, Li Zhonghe, Zheng Tongen, Bi Yuhai, and Shen Mingzheng. Moreover, he personally supervised the gassing of 26 imprisoned Communists. Although these 26 people were killed by Liu Xinjie with other dead bodies, Tan Zhongshu already believed that the massacre was successful.
Such an executioner, whose hands were stained with the blood of revolutionaries, finally suddenly realized his conscience and became a good person!
The director was probably worried that the audience wouldn't understand, so he even added a subtitle at the end of the play:
Tan Zhongshu left Shanghai for Taiwan in 1949 and was immediately detained. His investigation lasted for three years. After his release, Tan Zhongshu and his family lived in Taipei until his death in 1980. In fact, he never truly regained his freedom.
Liu Xinjie returned to the liberated areas at the end of 1949 and restored his identity - No. 031. The Central Military Commission awarded him a third-class Red Star Medal in recognition of his outstanding struggle behind enemy lines.
Note that Tan Zhongshu, as the spy chief who was riddled with blood debts and committed heinous crimes, did not escape, retreat, retreat, or coerce, but left Shanghai for Taiwan. Could he be a tourist who left Shanghai to travel to Taiwan? Isn’t it clear at a glance what concept this ambiguous text is trying to convey?
The reason why Tan Zhongshu was detained for investigation was simply because he let Liu Xinjie go. What is the crime for deliberately letting go of a Communist undercover agent? But the Kuomintang released him and allowed him to die a good death. Could it be that the Kuomintang agents in Taiwan also sympathize...
On the mainland, Liu Xinjie has disclosed his identity and received public commendation.
Even more puzzling is the last line:
Brothers Tan Zhongshu and Liu Xinjie never met again in their lives.
By describing it this way, is it pity for their brotherhood?
In short, this so-called spy drama that can be "compared" with "Cliff" and "Insidious" can be watched as a fun and fun way to relieve boredom. But if you do a little analysis, you will find that the logic inside is confusing, and you don’t know what it is trying to express!

This TV series tells the story of the war era. The so-called "Bright Sword" is a kind of spirit. The protagonist Li Yunlong bravely showed his sword to Chu Yunfei. Although it was not as good as Chu Yunfei's army at first, it became more and more sharp, making the opponent fearful and then he won. This spirit is worth learning. of. What's good about him is that he restored the gap in people's imagination without false grandeur. The prototype of the most important battle in the play, the "Hundred Regiments War", was restored to a battle, not a battle or even a war. Of course, it is not as sharp as the movie. There are no particularly cruel war scenes, and the narrative of the TV series can be accepted by ordinary viewers. The director uses a cold and warm tone to render the whole play, from the squad leader, cavalry company commander, regiment chief of staff to brigade commander, division commander, army commander and even commander, a whole set of military supervision, using a very small number of representative characters to all Click to. There is also the relationship between Li Yunlong and Tian Yu. It was very unpretentious at first. Li Yunlong directly asked Tian Yu if he liked him. If he liked him, they would be together. If he didn't like him, he would never bother Tian Yu. Later, they got together and got married. After the marriage, Many problems also emerged one after another. Different education, differences in three views, and even the emergence of the mistress later put them in danger. The reason why I like to watch this drama is because there are many real-life things in it. "Bright Sword" is a war movie, but it is not limited to a war movie.

No.5 "Before Dawn"
Starring: Wu Xiubo, Lin Yongjian, Hai Qing, Lu Jianmin
In 1948, the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party reached a fever pitch, and the world Although the general trend is beginning to take shape, it is also at a critical moment that is extremely dangerous and cannot tolerate any mistakes. One day in September, an underground member of the Chinese Communist Party was arrested in Shanghai and rebelled. In order to protect himself, he intended to provide an important undercover agent to Tan Zhongshu (played by Lin Yongjian), the director of the Eighth Central Intelligence Bureau of the Shanghai National Government. This move was undoubtedly It is related to the success or failure of our party's revolution. Tan has had many battles with our party's legendary agent Sailor before. This time he was sure of victory, but a series of changes made him aware of the dangers of the quagmire between the enemy and ourselves. At the same time, in order to prevent the drugs in the hands of drug tycoon Zhuang Wenqing from falling into the hands of the People's Liberation Army, Tan implemented the Moses Plan through his son's principal Duan Haiping (played by Lu Jianmin); the extremely ambitious Director of Operations of the Eighth Bureau Li Bohan was frantically tracking down the Communist Party In the process of the party's undercover investigation, it pointed the finger at Liu Xinjie (played by Wu Xiubo), the director of the General Affairs Department whom Tan trusted most. You come and go, with open guns and hidden arrows, the most dangerous chess game is quietly unfolding before dawn... The actors in the play have a precise and sophisticated grasp of the characters' personalities, and they have a good grasp of the tepid and appropriate tension in the opponent's scenes. On the contrary, the suspense and ups and downs of the plot are interspersed with wit and wit, which is rarely seen in spy war-themed dramas, and it is really refreshing.
In no particular order, each drama has its own merits and is very enjoyable! So which one is your favorite? Waiting for you to speak in the comment area.
Why is Li Bohan's injection so powerful?
At 21 minutes and 57 seconds in episode 11, you can clearly see the name of the drug Li Bohan injected, "Morphine Hydrochloride Injection"
It is a very powerful sedative and analgesic drug that can become addictive if used for a week
If you are interested Friends can search for the name of this drug on Baidu to see the relevant introduction. This drug is usually used for the analgesic effect of various severe pains such as cancer, burn surgery, etc. Because of its strong addictive nature, its use is strictly controlled and cannot be purchased in ordinary pharmacies and hospitals
To put it simply, illegal sales and use of morphine are considered drug trafficking and drug abuse.
Why did Tan Zhongshu help Liu Xinjie save people in the end?
Because the two are brothers who have died.
In "Before Dawn" starring Wu Xiubo and Lin Yongjian, the relationship between Liu Xinjie and Tan Zhongshu is clear and clear. They are both superiors and subordinates, and they are good brothers who grew up together. Liu Xinjie was an orphan since he was a child. It was Tan Zhongshu's mother who raised him and provided him with education. He and Tan Zhongshu went to Huangpu together to join the army and fight against Japan together.
Liu Xinjie once saved Tan Zhongshu's life on the battlefield, and the two were brothers who died. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Liu Xinjie came to Tan Zhongshu's eighth game and officially became his subordinate. If the traitor Qin Youtian hadn't revealed that there was a Communist undercover in the top management of the Eighth Bureau, the relationship between brothers Liu Xinjie and Tan Zhongshu would have been strong forever.
The last scene of "Before Dawn" is that Tan Zhongshu and Liu Xinjie went to worship at the sailor's grave together. When Tan Zhongshu asked about Liu Xinjie's whereabouts, although Xinjie still expressed his willingness to follow him, this time Tan Zhongshu said that Xinjie could Choose for yourself.
Seeing this, I personally think that Tan Zhongshu was already hinting to Liu Xinjie that he knew he was 031, so the two brothers silently said "Sayo Nala" to each other in their respective cars, and they completely parted ways.
Rather than saying that Tan Zhongshu fell into a trap, it is better to say that Tan Zhongshu took the initiative to cooperate with the sailors after his faith collapsed. Li Bohan and Ouyang Ci grew up to be the last straw that crushed his faith, making him willing to fulfill Liu Xinjie's wish.
Spy dramas are always accompanied by the word "faith", but friendship is equally precious. When their faith was extremely noble, Sailor and Liu Xinjie were willing to sacrifice for it, but when their faith collapsed, there was still a true brotherhood worth protecting, and Tan Zhongshu chose friendship.
The above is all about why Li Bohan takes drugs, "Before Dawn": What is the relationship between Tan Zhongshu and Liu Xinjie, and Li Bohan's related content. I hope it can help you.
