:07:02
It speaks nothing to the people.
:07:04
What good is making music... except
:07:07
to teach and inspire the people?
:07:11
Long live Chairman Mao!
:07:15
Overthrow the cultural establishment!
:07:21
Chou Yuan?
:07:23
Present.
:07:24
Why do you teach this instrument?
:07:29
Comrade Chan Gong, what you say is true...
:07:33
Louder, please.
:07:37
Comrade Chan Gong, you are right.
:07:40
Much of Western music is unrefined, worthless.
:07:45
This is a fact.
:07:47
Everything you said is true.
:07:50
But the music I teach...
:07:52
Go on!
:07:54
The music I teach is revolutionary music.
:07:57
Beethoven, Prokofiev.
:07:59
Do you think so?
:08:01
In his speech, Comrade Li said...
:08:04
Comrade Li was purged and humiliated.
:08:06
Do you still wish to quote him?
:08:10
I didn't know.
:08:14
I have taught for many years.
:08:16
That is apparent.
:08:19
We believe in the rule of many voices.
:08:21
What should we do here?
:08:24
Throw away that old junk!
:08:26
Chou Yuan, you must admit your guilt.
:08:28
Let's challenge degenerate Western art!
:08:32
Comrade, may I say a few words?
:08:37
Of course.
:08:40
Students, comrades, revolutionary Red Guards...
:08:46
I'm not an authority on foreign music.
:08:49
I have not studied like Comrade Chan Gong.
:08:52
But in my opinion, there's nothing
:08:55
as beautiful as our traditional music.
:08:59
Chou Yuan also teaches the hu chin.
