Although Chairman Mao did not directly comment on "Song of Everlasting Sorrow," he had many comments on the poetry as a whole for reference. Song of Everlasting Sorrow was written by Bai Juyi. This narrative poem was very popular and had been sung for thousands of years. The poem began with Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, lecherous and seeking a woman. It described his love story with Yang Guifei, from sharing "prosperity and bliss" to "heavy beauty misleading the country, extreme joy leading to sorrow". After the An Shi Rebellion, Yang Guifei was forced to death by the imperial army. Later, it described Li Longji's lonely thoughts of Yang Yuhuan, with Taoist priests looking for Yuhuan, the expression of heaven and earth, and other plots. This poem was interesting and straightforward, describing the love of an emperor's family. There were many golden lines in it, and even a village woman in the mountains could recite a few lines. Bai Juyi was also known as the "Poet Devil" because of this poem. As for Wang Anyi's novel " Song of Everlasting Regret," the story was different from Bai Juyi's " Song of Everlasting Regret." Some critics felt that the novel's reputation was hard to live up to. This was a story about a beautiful woman who had a bad life. The protagonist, Wang Qiyao, was a young lady from Shanghai. After being kept, she had disputes with several men and was finally killed because of the gold that Director Li left her. From the perspective of conception, the meaning of the story was not profound enough. Compared with the tragic female descriptions in "La Traviata" and "White Deer Plain," it lacked depth. Moreover, the words were wordy, drawn-out, and deliberately deep. The second half of the structure was drawn-out, and the main line was scattered, greatly weakening the depth of the work. The contemporary evaluation of Xi'an's Song of Everlasting Sorrow was: " Before I watch it: The tickets are expensive. After reading it, I thought,"This is too worth it!" He felt that it was worth watching and that it could make people feel the deep love that Bai Juyi had written in "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" behind the elegy of love.

From the development of their love story, Tang Minghuang's love for Yang Yuhuan was complicated. There was a big age gap between them, and Yang Yuhuan was originally the concubine of King Shou, Li Mao, who was later brought into the palace by Emperor Ming of Tang Dynasty. Because Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty doted on her and rewarded her indiscriminately, it led to the corruption of the government and the Anshi Rebellion. During the Mawei Slope rebellion, Emperor Ming of Tang abandoned Yang Guifei to protect the country. After that, he lost his political power and was granted the title of Retired Emperor with limited personal freedom. He had gradually fallen from a king who had achieved the achievements of Kaiyuan to a state where he had lost his country and family, and his movements were restricted.

In Song of Everlasting Sorrow, Wang Qiyao had a soul-stirring beauty. She integrated beauty into her bones and blood, and was the representative of Shanghai's traditional beauty. However, her beauty was unfortunate, and her tragedy stemmed from her own personality. Although she was beautiful, she was a little "stupid". This kind of "stupidity" and beauty complemented each other. Most of the people she dated in her life were scumbags. The only infatuated person, Mr. Cheng, was despised by her. Because she yearned for the style of the big world, she chose to be with an older government official and mistook abnormal feelings for love. Her personality was calculative, snobbish, selfish, and pretentious, but because of her beauty, these shortcomings seemed to be forgiven. Wang Anyi's female image was delicate and gentle, with little thoughts and calculations. It was tacky, feminine, resentful, and childish. The little woman world she constructed with Wang Qiyao as the representative was a little narrow and one-sided. She was unique in her writing techniques, using her poems about alleys, pigeons, rumors, Wu Qiao, etc. to set off Wang Qiyao. Wang Qiyao's beautiful face was the end of an era. Her death was incomplete and soul-stirring. Although there were factors of the era, it was also the result of her own personality and choices, such as participating in beauty pageants, not restraining her desires and treating her feelings rationally. When people talked about the tragic fate of a beautiful woman, they often treated tragedy as a part of beauty, like appreciating a piece of art, but they did not think deeply about the fall of a life.

There were mixed reviews of Wang Anyi's Song of Everlasting Sorrow. From a critical point of view, some people thought that there were many shortcomings in "Song of Everlasting Sorrow." Firstly, the words were long-winded and dragged, pretending to be deep and incomprehensible, and were not precise enough. Secondly, in terms of description, many of the descriptions were more superficial and seemed to be fragmented and jumbled. The combination of lyricism and description was more inclined to prose. Thirdly, from the perspective of conception, the story of the protagonist Wang Qiyao's beautiful face and unfortunate life lacked profound meaning. The first half seemed to be vain and caused trouble, while the second half was dragged out and the main line was scattered, greatly weakening the depth of the work. Fourth, compared to Zhang Ailing, Wang Anyi's description of old Shanghai was more vague and lacked detail. Especially when it came to the protagonist's dressing, clothing, fashion, room layout, and other aspects, she was not detailed enough. She was not vivid and unique enough to portray the scenes of old Shanghai. However, there were also comments from a positive perspective. Wang Anyi used extremely poetic language to transcend 50 years of history. She examined the gains and losses of the characters from an omniscient perspective and objectively and rationally pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of the characters. By describing the ups and downs of the fate of Wang Qiyao, the changes of Shanghai were presented to the readers. Although Wang Qiyao's character image was not liked by most readers, one could see the helplessness of women in the torrent of the times from her. She did not give up her love for life and pursuit of beauty in the midst of the changes. The indifference and elegance she showed in her old age also reflected the state of women after the years settled down. From the perspective of narrative style, the prose narrative mode at the beginning of Song of Everlasting Sorrow was considered to be the representative work of contemporary literature that used a single narrative mode after Shen Congwen's Border Town. It had its own unique narrative style. The novel "Song of Everlasting Sorrow: Morning and Evening" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
