What does Old Nine Gates mean? Who are the characters? An analysis of the relationship between the characters in the play

The meaning of "Old Nine Gates": refers to the nine tomb robbing families in old Changsha mentioned in the tomb robbing notes, which are called "Old Nine Gates" and also called "Nine Gates Prefect".

The old nine doors are actually divided into three doors: the upper door, the flat door and the lower door. (It is equivalent to the industrial chain of a professional archaeologist, grave robber and merchant selling stolen goods. )

The lower three doors are closely related to the peace three doors (for example, the Wu family and Xie family are in-laws), and the upper three doors and the lower three doors have relatively few contacts because they have no interest relationship.

The last three dishes: Zhang Qishan (Buddha Zhang), February Red, Ban Mei.

The last three officials and the crutches in the army are all well-off old families, and their formal identities are generally bleached. They have legitimate business on the facade, and they are very powerful on the surface. The inverted bucket mainly depends on their own buddies.

The three masters who went to the three gates are all famous old gourd ladle handles. At that time, they were out-and-out figures on the road, and their family power was comparable to that of small warlords.

Ping Sanmen: Chen Pi A Si, Wu Laogou (Wu Xie's grandfather), Hebei Lao Liu.

If the legends of Shangsanmen are mostly British names, good names or gossip, the legends of Pingsanmen are mostly notorious. Pingsanmen is a grave robber in the "industrial chain".

Yamaraja prodigal laughing Buddha is the main force to organize grave robbery. Most of them fight alone, with a few apprentices at most.

These people are young and greedy, and they do everything they can to kill and plunder goods. Their reputation is based on fighting and killing, and they have no worries.

Next three doors: Huo Xiangu (Huo Xiuxiu's grandmother), Qi Tiezui and Jay (Jay's grandfather).

The next three doors are for business, and the beauty operators move the sky. They are all businessmen who have relied on antique dealers, mainly selling. Although their kung fu is not weak, they don't do their own activities, so they are the kind with fewer stories.

The original tomb raiding notes:

There are nine prefects in old Changsha, and all the other eight lines know it. These grave robbing families are powerful.

Covering all aspects of cultural relics smuggling, almost all funerary wares flow out of Changsha through one of them.

There are different opinions about why it is called the nine-door prefect. The most recognized one is that there are nine gates in ancient big cities, and merchants who come and go have to choose one of them.

That's what Lao Jiumen means. To do business in Changsha, you can only choose one of these nine forces, and there is no other way.

Introduction to the story of Old Nine Gates;

1in July, 937, the Japanese army launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, and the motherland was divided and the whole nation was United. Qi Xin resisted the enemy and launched a fierce struggle with the Japanese aggressors.

A military train pulled into the station late at night, taking Zhang Qishan (William Chan), a security officer in Changsha, to a mine full of doubts. In order to solve the mystery of the mine, Zhang Qishan turned to the antique connoisseur February Red (a layman) and forged a deep friendship.

In the process of pursuing the secret, he met the love of his life, and Yin (Zhao) committed suicide after suffering.

Zhang Qishan was forced to flee Changsha because of the traitor's frame-up. The Chinese Communist Party intercepted a secret telegram of Japan plotting to capture Changsha. They hope that Zhang Qishan can return to Changsha, gather all the forces that can be assembled and fight against the Japanese army together.

Zhang Qishan deeply felt the sense of national justice. He returned to Changsha to reopen nine parliaments and wipe out traitors. The old nine gates, which had complicated forces, achieved unprecedented unity.

When the battle of Changsha started, Zhang Qishan joined the ranks of defending Changsha together with Lao Jiumen, fighting bloody battles, and the morale of our army was high. Under the strategic deployment of the CPC Central Committee, the Japanese army gradually lost its strength and retreated northward, and Changsha turned the corner.
