Xu Yunfeng, a tall and perfect producer in the novel Red Rock, is mainly based on Xu Jianye. Xu Jianye's social occupation is accounting of Zhicheng Company, alias Yang Qing, born in 192 1, a native of Linshui, Sichuan.
Real identity is a member of Chongqing Municipal Committee, in charge of the workers' movement. The man who met Xu Jianye in the novel is called Li Jingyuan, and this character is fictional. What we really know in history is Gao, an underground party member.
Although Xu Jianye is the prototype of Xu Yunfeng, it is not equal to Xu Yunfeng. Xu Jianye's indomitable and touching deeds are really outstanding, but considering Xu Jianye's fault, the author made a big fiction about this character and transplanted some glorious deeds of other martyrs to him, such as Xu Xiaoxuan.
