宋初風雲人物 符彥卿 作者: 惜秋

符彥卿yan4qing1(0-40，897-975 AD）是謀勇兼備、威望懼胡的勛臣，將門之後，立功後周，勛至王位，一門三后，累朝襲寵 能先後事後唐，後晉，後漢，後周，宋帝 而能怡然自得，與時進退，誠非易事。裏面的曲曲折折， 相信是電視劇的好材料。希望有一天能夠如願見到。

--彥卿在太祖大局初定之時，在北方不僅為防御遼軍南侵的長城，在李筠叛時對宋更有舉足輕重之勢。李筠如果南進連淮南節度李重進，東連宣懿皇後之父，天雄軍節度使符彥卿，然後反宋，則有三面受敵之慮，鹿死誰手，正未可知。可笑匹夫李筠，只知連薄弱無力的後周深仇北漢，其敗不亦宜乎？明乎此，太祖杯酒釋諸將兵權時，包括符彥卿在內，是不足為奇的。至趙普務不讓彥卿再掌兵權，還是同樣因素。反之，彥卿對宋帝雖不一定有什么忠心，但并無惡意，倒是顯然可見的。如果彥卿對後周具有忠心而不贊成宋帝的話，那李筠雖然不知道聯絡彥卿，難道彥卿不知道亦以響應嗎？從彥卿任李筠被滅而無動于衷的一點來看，可以理解他并不反對宋帝。進一步說，太祖為太宗聘彥卿之第六女為妻，那就是後來的懿德皇后，是在周顯德中，我們也可解釋太祖時對彥卿早有聯絡之意。

--嘗射獵于鹽台淀，一日射獐、彘、狐、兔四十又二，觀者以為神射手。

--“與其束手就擒，曷若死戰” 彥卿奮勇當先， 順風出敵不意，驟擊之，遼軍大敗，俘獲器甲旗仗數萬，以獻晉帝。

Suukee is a very important Hainanese phrase. Suu: house, Kee : side. Because family lives very close by in the Hainan village, and therefore Suukee, means neighbor, and neighbor usually is close relatives. Whenever one addresses each other "Suukee" it means they are very close like relatives. And if you see anything bearing the name Suukee, it is definitely related to Hainan. (A good lesson for me!!)

This Suukee厝邊raps is about Namewee going back to Hainan for his root. The theme is in Hainanese, some in mandarin. The raps is Malaysian culture specific, outsiders will find it intrigue how we speak, mixing different dialects, Malay and English etc. The content is something like this: Grandfather left Hainan in a grass hat, short pants with 11 dollars in the pocket. He worked very hard selling roti (bread) spread with butter and Kaya; black coffee ( Kopi O). During holidays and festival, he sent money back to support the village. & 70 years later, his grandson goes back and was mistaken for a thief. He realizes he cannot understand the local Hainanese because the styles, the slang used in the language are very different. Even Hainan chicken is different.

Namewee goes back to his root, and find out he don't belong there. He can't communicate with his neighbor ( relative),and he doesn't have the love for the land like his grandfather. He can't relate with his relative although they still share the same working ethics. He will bring back the memory to his grandfather, but he wants to go back to his own home in Malaysia. Young NameWee is brilliant. He puts in so much emotion/ memory in a single song. He conveys a general feeling of Hainanese and in a broader sense, the Diaspora of the oversea Chinese in the last two centuries.

The main theme is in Hainanese :

海南人講海南話

海南咖啡真好喝

Hainanese speaks Hainanese. Hainanese coffee is delicious

我們都是 Suukee Suukee 我們都是Suukee Suukee

Suukee Suukee We all are Suukee

You will find it more interesting if you follow the lyrics on the movie. Following pages is my attempted translation, it is quiet difficult, but I try to follow Name's thought. I translate them for Francis, Michael and those who want to know their roots. And thanks to Namewee's talent, I never think I appreciate Rap that much!! I don't know a sentence our Ah Kong/ po said "Hainanese speaks Hainanese. Hainanese coffee is delicious". So ordinary means so much!!

Suukee means your neighboures. We always address 同乡，Suukee, that means we are closer to each other. 这样称呼会感到特别亲切。当在外你与朋友说了老半天，最后才晓得他愿来是海南人，我们就会很自然脱口说（唉呀，都是Suukee, Suu= 厝 Kee= 边，
住在我们屋子旁边的不就是邻居吗？在海南乡下，住在你左邻右舍的肯定是你的至亲，堂的或同宗，错
