Tang Yin, who counts himself as six monks, is from Wuxian County. A famous painter and poet in the Ming Dynasty, he ranked first in the rural examination in the eleventh year of Hongzhi. He was in jail for something. Later, he visited famous mountains and rivers and fell in love with them. Dedicated to painting, good at calligraphy and poetry.
His poetry writing style is unique, not restricted by law, and uses spoken language. He dares to break through the limitations of rules and boldly express his true feelings. Particularly evident in his later years was his lack of etiquette, which often appears in his poetry. The extraordinary story of his dealings with the world was widely circulated among the people. One of the four great talents in Wuzhong. Here is "The Complete Works of Liu Ruju". The introduction mentions "I was imprisoned for something." I think Baidu's introduction is more objective, because it is said that Tang Bohu was imprisoned for cheating on exams. According to official documents, Tang Yin was not jailed for cheating on exams, but was implicated because his friends cheated. I heard that Tang Yin gave the examiner a dollar. I think Tang Yin's talent makes it impossible to cheat in the exam.
Tang Bohu’s name can be recited by the public. In addition to Tang Yin's popularity, I think this also has something to do with Jay Chou's movies. Stephen Chow's version of "Tang Bohu" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become a new cultural symbol. Film is a visual and auditory art. On the one hand, film and television works are based on historical figures and redesign the characters so that we have an intuitive understanding of historical figures.
But on the other hand, for the sake of plot effect, films and television often re-design historical figures. The characters are artistically portrayed, and the events related to the characters will also be reinterpreted. The image of the created character will become a new symbol. This person is not another person, and an evaluation of an artistic figure is not an evaluation of a real-world person. The content reflected in the film comes from life and is higher than life, and the plot can be exaggerated. So don’t confuse Tang Bohu in the movie with Tang Yin in reality.
The poet uses personification to reveal the rooster's psychological state of not daring to speak easily in his life. When the rooster crows, it means dawn. When the rooster crows, thousands of families open their doors to welcome the new day. This poem describes the power of the rooster and its nobility. It vividly demonstrates the expression, temperament and news-telling nature of the chicken. This poem reads like a children's song.
