红昼（Red Daytime Sky）

《红昼》似乎讲述了一个村庄—金香峪—的变迁故事，一个行业—钢铁行业—的发展历程，一座城市—龙溪市—的进化史，但又不仅仅于此。从某种意义上说，"钢铁"是近代西方资本主义发展以来的社会骨骼，"钢铁行业"则是社会的脊柱，西方列强得以打开古老中国国门的"船坚炮利"实质上背后有着"钢铁"的支撑。可以说"钢铁的产量、钢铁的质量"决定着一个国家的前途未来。Red Daytime Sky seemingly depicts the changes of a village named Jinxiangyu, the trajectory of an industry, the steel industry, and the evolution of a city named Longxi, but it's also beyond all these. In a certain sense, "iron & steel" has been the social skeleton of the West since the emergence of capitalism, while the "steel industry" is the spine of society. The "gunboats" of the Western powers that helped force open the Chinese territory were in fact supported by "iron & steel". It can be said that "the output and quality of iron & steel" determines the prospects and future of a nation.
