秦宇终于松了一口气，原来是个乌龙，只是虚惊一场罢了。他趁机问了女孩儿的名字，聊了几句，原来女孩儿喜欢看话剧，同时也是个古董控，一个月前去了上海玩，在上海看了几场话剧，还去逛了一些跳蚤市场。秦宇原本想加她微信，但女孩儿说手机上周摔坏了，暂时没有手机可以用。于是他们直接约了隔天表演开场前的半小时在剧院门口碰面。

QinYu took a load off his mind. As it turned out that it's a mistake, merely a false alarm. He seized the opportunity and asked the girl's name, chatted for a while. In fact, the girl likes to watch stage drama, and she's a big fan of antique as well. Last month, she went to visit Shanghai, watched some play there, and visited some flea market. QinYu was thinking to add her on Wechat, but the girl said that she broke her phone last week, so she doesn't have a phone. Therefore, they decided to meet in front of the theatre half an hour before the play starts the next day.

她对秦宇说：”真的很开心，谢谢你今天陪我一块儿去看话剧。很高兴认识你，可惜这是我们最后一次见面了。”

tā duì QínYǔ shuō ：”zhēnde hěn kāixīn ，xièxie nǐ jīntiān péi wǒ yīkuàir qù kàn huàjù 。hěn gāoxìng rènshi nǐ ，kěxī zhèshì wǒmen zuìhòu yīcì jiànmiàn le 。”

"I'm glad and appreciate your accompany to watch the play today. It is very nice to know you, unfortunately this might be the last time to meet each other." She said to QinYu.

后来秦宇向女孩儿的邻居们打听，才知道原来女孩儿7月31日在上海看完话剧表演后，在回酒店的路上被一个酒后驾车的司机撞上，当场身亡，香消玉陨了，而8月7日那天正好是女孩儿的头七。

Afterwards, QinYu asked the girl's neighbor. As it turned out, the girl got hit by a drunk driver on her way back to the hotel, right after she watched the play in Shanghai on 31st of July. She died at the scene. This pretty girl perished along with her fragrance. August 7th is the 7th day after her death.

题材……对我来说倒不是最重要的。我更看重一部电影的情节、剧本和特效。

tícái ……duì wǒ láishuō dǎo búshi zuì zhòngyào de 。wǒ gèng kànzhòng yī bù diànyǐng de qíngjié 、jùběn hé tèxiào 。

The theme...is not the most important. I place even more importance on the plot, script and special effects.

那场战争的战火遍及亚洲、欧洲、非洲、大洋洲，军队和民众伤亡超过一亿人，其中中国伤亡人数超过三千五百万，苏联死亡人数超过两千七百万。绝不让历史悲剧重演，是我们对当年为维护人类自由、正义、和平而牺牲的英灵，对惨遭屠杀的无辜亡灵的最好纪念。

The fire of war spread over Asia, Europe, Africa and Oceania and over 100 million soldiers and civilians were killed or injured, among which over 35 million Chinese were killed or injured, and over 27 million Soviets were killed or injured. Ensuring that we do our absolute best to prevent history from repeating itself by upholding the human freedom, justice and peace that these martyrs sacrificed their lives for, is the best way to remember the innocent departed souls who were massacred.

所谓雄伟和秀美，所谓外向和内向，所谓戏剧型的和图画型的，所谓戴奥尼苏斯艺术和阿波罗艺术，所谓“金刚怒目，菩萨低眉”，所谓“静如处女，动如脱兔”，姚姬传所谓的阳刚和阴柔，都无非是这两种气质的注脚。

Majesty and grace, extroversion and introversion, theater and painting, Dionysusian art and Apollonian art, the fierce stare of an attendant of the Buddha and the lowered gaze of the Bodhisattva, or the coyness of the maid and the rapidity of the rabbit from 'The Nine Situations' in Sunzi's Art of War, and Yao Nai's concept of masculine and feminine, are all but footnotes to these two aspects.

秦宇回到家梳洗完毕，拿着女孩儿给他的信封躺到床上。打开信封，里面是两张泛黄的票券，他把票拿起来一看：演出地点是在上海话剧院。而演出时间──1930年8月9日星期六。

Qinyu got back home and showered. He lay on his bed and opened up the envelope the girl gave him. There were two yellowed tickets. So he read the description on it: "Location: Shanghai Performance Hall. Time: August 9, 1930, Saturday. "
