	Zhou Yu's Train Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		Zhou also takes an active interest in the writing career of her new boyfriend, raising money to publish his first book and organizing poetry readings on his behalf.
		Furthermore, she wanders through Zhou's stomping grounds, from the train ride to Chongyang to the cable car station on the way to Chen Ching's home, as though she was revisiting her past.
		While it is a pleasure to see Gong Li back on the big screen, the vehicle by which she has staged her comeback, "Zhou Yu's Train", ends up being a rather pedestrian outing that is complicated only by a non-linear narrative and some metaphysical touches.

		This trend reached its climax with Wang Mang, whose rise to power and eventual usurpation was associated with, and to a large extent legitimated by, hundreds of favorable omens and the generous rewarding of those who reported them.
		Some have even seen Wang Mang as genuine in his espousal of Confucian ideals and as a sincere believer that reviving the institutions and rites of the Zhou dynasty would lead to a period of great peace and harmony.
		In an attempt to follow this ancient tradition, a set of red and fl bows and arrows was awarded to Wang Mang in 5 CE as part of the “Conferment of the Nine Distinctions” bestowed on him by ministers, officials, and scholars of the Han court.

	Riddle 8 Part I
		The "Duo Yi" chapter of Yi Zhou shu has Wu Wang after his victory (in 1040) saying to Zhou Gong that "Heaven's withholding its favor from Yin has been going on for sixty years, since before I was born"; i.e., from Ji Li's death on, Zhou had not regarded Shang's rule as sanctioned by Heaven.
		I had misread the Shiji: The shijia chapters say that the Conquest was in Wu Wang's 11th year; the "Zhou Benji" says that the Zhou army had crossed the Yellow River by the 12th month of the 11th year, and that the victory was won on jiazi in the 2nd month.
		Actually, Wen Wang did die in 1050, and (as I realized later) the Conquest was not in a "12th year." Seeing that this argument was unsatisfactory, I returned to 1045 as Conquest date in my publications from 1985 through 1989.

	OFFOFFOFF film review ZHOU YU'S TRAIN (Zhou Yu de Huo Che) Chinese movie by Sun Zhou with Gong Li, Tony Leung Ka Fai, ...
		Our first glimpse of Zhou Yu (Gong Li) is on a train, where she's gingerly carrying a vase she's hand-painted for her boyfriend.
		She meets Chen Qing (Tony Leung), a semi-reclusive poet and librarian, at a dance where he left her a poem ending with the line "If I vanish, you will hear nothing but silence." On the pretext of returning the briefcase he left behind, she tracks him to another town, and passion instantly strikes.
		It's less the story of Zhou Yu and the Train On Which She Found Love than the story of an inventive director, cinematographer and film editor (Sun Zhou, Wang Yu and William Chang).
