人物重组与“城”的变移 ——《陈奂生上城》版本考释

The Reorganization of Characters and the Change of“City”——An Examination of the Edition of Chen Huansheng Goes to Town

《陈奂生上城》是作家高晓声最具影响力的作品之一,它的初刊本与初版本高度稳定。从1979年的《“漏斗户”主》开始,作家前后历时十二年,打造出“陈奂生系列小说”。在此基础上,经过连缀和重写,高晓声又创作出版了长篇小说《陈奂生上城出国记》。事实上,1982年电影《陈奂生上城》在全国公映之后,“陈奂生”已经成为家喻户晓的人物。而这部电影其实是将《陈奂生上城》和《陈奂生转业》放在一起加以改编,且以后者为主要故事框架。在改编过程中,主人公所上的“城”已悄然变移。从小说到电影,“电影文学剧本”《陈奂生奇遇记》一直被研究者所忽视。“陈奂生”再次进入受众的视野,是因为滑稽剧《陈奂生的吃饭问题》在2018年的排演,而这部作品已不同于传统意义的改编,只能算作“衍生版本”。

Chen Huansheng Goes to Town is one of Gao Xiaosheng’s most influential works.Its first publication and first edition are highly stable.Starting from The Lord of the Funnel Household in 1979,the author spent 12 years creating the“Chen Huansheng series of novels”.Based on this,Gao created and published a full-length novel,Chen Huansheng Goes to the City and Goes Abroad,through a process of concatenation and rewriting.In fact,Chen Huansheng has become a household name after the film Chen Huansheng Goes to Town was released nationwide in 1982.In fact,this film is an adaptation of Chen Huansheng Goes to Town and Chen Huansheng Changes Jobs together,with the latter being the main framework of the story.In the process of adaptation,the“city”that the main character goes to has quietly changed.From the novel to the film,the film literary book The Adventures of Chen Huansheng has been ignored by researchers.“Chen Huansheng”entered the audience’s vision again because of the rehearsal of the comedy“Chen Huansheng’s Livinghood”in 2018,which is different from the traditional sense of adaptation,and can only be counted as a“derivative version”.
