What seven places do "Qizi" refer to?

Seven sons refer to seven lands occupied by the great powers at that time: Hongkong, Macau, Taiwan Province Province, Kowloon, Ahava (now Weihai City, Shandong Province), Guangzhou Bay (now Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province) and Luda (Lushun Dalian).

First, Guangzhou Bay.

Guangzhou Bay in Ming and Qing Dynasties refers to Zhanjiang now. At that time, Zhanjiang was the largest city in western Guangdong, which was adjacent to the sea and had maritime advantages, so it was glimpsed by the powers. From 65438 to 0899, Zhanjiang was forcibly leased by France at that time, and its name was Guangzhou Bay at that time. It was not until after World War II that Guangzhou Bay returned to the motherland.

The second son, Ahava.

This must be familiar to everyone. In the Sino-Japanese War, the then Beiyang Navy was completely annihilated in Ahava, which made the Sino-Japanese War end in a fiasco in the Qing Dynasty. Finally, treaty of shimonoseki was signed, and Ahava was occupied by the Japanese army after the Sino-Japanese War. After World War II, it was recovered and set up in Ahava, and later renamed Weihai.

The third son is from Dalian.

It was called Qingniwa in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Because it is located at the southernmost tip of Liaodong Peninsula, it has good location advantages and port conditions. So at the end of 1897, Russia at that time directly drove warships to Lushunkou, and then established a port in Qingniwa. The tsar himself named it "Dali Mud" in Russian. After the Russo-Japanese War, it was controlled by the Japanese to 1945, and it was named Dalian.

Fourth son, Hong Kong Island.

At first, Hong Kong Island was just a fishing village, but after the first Opium War and the defeat of the Qing Dynasty, the Sino-British treaty of nanking ceded Hong Kong Island to Britain. It was occupied by Japan during World War II and never recovered after World War II. It was not until 1997 that it officially returned to the motherland. Now it is the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

The fifth son, Kowloon.

Now Kowloon is one of the main components of Hong Kong. It is called Kowloon Peninsula and covers an area of nearly 8 square kilometers. After Britain occupied Hong Kong Island and the New Territories, it gradually occupied Kowloon Peninsula. In the 24th year of Guangxu, Kowloon Peninsula was leased and merged into Hong Kong. Now the Kowloon Peninsula is very prosperous, with Kowloon City in the south. 1997 has returned to the embrace of the motherland.

Liuzi, Macau.

As early as the early Ming Dynasty, Portuguese colonists arrived in China and tried to occupy our territory by force, but after failing, they retreated to the present Macau Peninsula and stayed there. 1553, the Portuguese obtained the right of residence in Macao Peninsula by bribing local officials.

1887, Portugal also forced the Qing government to sign a treaty and formally occupied Macao, which became a Portuguese colony. Until 1999, Macao returned to China. Now it is the Macao Special Administrative Region.

The seventh son, Taiwan Province Island.

Taiwan Province Province has been an inseparable part of China since ancient times. The ancient dynasty of China began to rule Taiwan Province Province very early and established local administrative institutions for its immigrants. At the end of Ming Dynasty, it was occupied by Holland, and Zheng Chenggong recovered Taiwan Province Province. At the end of Qing Dynasty, the provincial capital of Taiwan Province was directly established.

After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Japanese occupied Taiwan Province Province and became its colony, which was recovered after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. From 65438 to 0949, the Kuomintang government retreated to Taiwan Province Province in the defeat of the civil war, and then the two sides of the Taiwan Strait were divided.

The creative background of Song of Seven Sons;

Song of Seven Sons was written in March 1925, when Wen Yiduo was in new york. In its preface, alsace-lorraine is translated into Lorraine region, which is located at the foot of Faust Mountain in eastern France. It was ceded to Germany in the Franco-Prussian War and returned after the Treaty of Versailles.

In the poem, Wen Yiduo compares seven pieces of "lost land" plundered by foreign powers to seven children who are far away from their mothers, crying about their strong feelings of being bullied by foreign countries and eager to return to their mothers' arms. On the one hand, poetry expresses nostalgia and praise for the motherland, on the other hand, it expresses the curse to the imperialist powers.

This paper quotes the allusions in The Book of Songs Li Feng Kaifeng, and there are still some disputes about the interpretation of The Book of Songs Li Feng Kaifeng. The view adopted in the poem is that mother can't stay at home and wants to remarry.

Her sons sang this song and blamed themselves, hoping to make their mother change her mind, but now some people think that it is a poem praising maternal love, which sets off the greatness of her mother by having seven sons who are ashamed of not being able to repay her kindness.
