No need to talk about those flamboyant movie stars, nor do I need to talk about the sports stars who galloped on the field of play, but only the political star who was active in the crowd, then I was y impressed.
He was a Bolshevik full of human feelings, he devoted his life to his beloved motherland and the people, bowing to the utmost, and dying. He did not have a tombstone, a grave, or a shovelful of earth to call his own, but he will always live in the mountains and rivers of China, and in the hearts of his beloved motherland and people. He once said, "Scattering ashes in the river can be used as fodder for fish, and scattering them on the farmland can be used as fertilizer for crops. Although only a little bit, perhaps it can also finally play a little role in serving the people."
He is our beloved Premier Zhou Enlai.
I remember in elementary school, we learned several articles about Premier Zhou Enlai. One of the paragraphs in the article, "The Hardworking Premier Zhou Enlai," reads, "A simple desk lamp, an outdated desk, a green rattan chair, so simple that I can't believe that this is the office of a great Premier." Not bad, Premier Zhou Enlai, he was such a simple man. His weather-beaten, waxen, shaw-thin face, always telling people what?
The stars have turned. Until today, there are still many sociologists studying Premier Zhou Enlai. Although he can not like Chairman Mao as full of poetry, but our Premier but wisdom is better than Zhu Geliang, temperament is greater than the boundless sea, he once said "my appearance is thin, will fertilize the world." From this sentence can be seen in our Premier's heart completely without self, only the world.
Premier Zhou is gone, he went quietly, without a sigh. Premier Zhou is gone, but not far away. His thoughts, spirit like the stars in the sky, never fall, always inspire people - for the rise of China and study.
The star in my heart--Zhou Enlai!
Our good Premier - Comrade Zhou Enlai, has left us for more than ten years, but his voice and smile, his angry revolutionary spirit, but still live in my heart.
When I was seventeen or eighteen years old, I listened to the teachings of this revolutionary on Huangshi Square in Yan'an. But I had no chance to see him for more than ten years after that. At the end of the Liberation War, I moved with the army to North China, where the fighting was in full swing, and as a lower-level cadre, I didn't know that the Party Central Committee was around.
Finally, an unforgettable day came.
It was September 23, 1953, and the second Literature Congress was underway. Representatives of the national literary and artistic circles were sitting joyfully in Huairen Hall, listening attentively to Premier Zhou's report. The report came to the third part, "The Tasks of Literary and Art Workers Striving for the General Line". At that time, it was fashionable to speak standing up, and Premier Zhou spoke standing up. He had a script at hand, but he did not read from it, but spoke in a lively manner, constantly causing bursts of laughter and applause. The delegates' faces were full of happiness and joy.
I was sitting in the first dozen or so rows of seats, listening intently, and suddenly my heart thumped as the Premier spoke of the following paragraph:
"......So we are to write about the outstanding characters among the workers, peasants, and soldiers, and the ideal characters among them. Who is the Loveliest Person," written by Comrade Wei Wei, is this type of glorification. It touched millions of readers and inspired the soldiers at the front. It is these typical characters that we should portray to push society forward. At the same time, our idealism should be the idealism of realism; our realism, the realism of idealism. The combination of revolutionary realism and revolutionary idealism is socialist realism."
Speaking here, Premier Zhou faced the stage and asked:
"Which one is Comrade Wei Wei? Please stand up, I want to get to know this friend."
I was a little over 30 years old at the time, and when I heard this unexpectedly, I was a little flustered, so I stood up in embarrassment.
"Where did you used to work?" He asked, facing me.
I answered hastily and sat down in a hurry. In reality I had only stood up halfway.
The Prime Minister smiled and nodded, and resumed his speech.
This was the noblest encouragement I have ever received in my life, and an example of the Premier's warm concern for literary and art workers.
From 1954 onwards, I was elected as a deputy to the National People's Congress for three consecutive terms, and my proximity to the Premier increased. In the ten years before the Cultural Revolution, I often attended various reports, symposiums and gatherings of the literary and artistic circles convened by the Premier. Sometimes it was at the Ziguangge, sometimes at the Huairen Hall, sometimes at the Xinqiao Hotel and the Beijing Hotel, and sometimes at the Youth Art Theater. The Premier's formal reports were more solemn, while the smaller meetings were very casual. I remember that once at the Youth Art Theater, he sat there with his coat on, laughing and speaking in a relaxed manner. When he talked about a certain work-related issue, he asked whether Comrade xxx had come. The following answered yes. The meeting place seemed very active. The Premier's working method makes it possible for some problems to be solved in a timely manner; some biases are corrected in a timely manner.
The Premier's speeches were rich in content. In addition to major issues at home and abroad, he often talked about literary and artistic issues. When talking about literature and art, he often talked about how to be a revolutionary, how to be a revolutionary literature and art workers and other issues related to worldview. His words were warm and cordial, like the spring breeze and rain, dripping into the earth. It was as if he was not a "chief" but an "elder brother". It should be said that our generation of intellectuals, as well as the older generation of intellectuals who are older than us, have been greatly and profoundly influenced by him in the cultivation of their worldview.
I remember that on one occasion, when speaking on the question of how to be a revolutionary, he spoke extremely eloquently. He said that to be a good revolutionary one must develop four points of view: first, the revolutionary point of view, second, the class point of view, third, the mass point of view, and fourth, the dialectical materialist point of view. This is undoubtedly the most concise summary of the proletarian worldview. The Premier has not written a book specifically on cultivation, and I see these four sentences as the most complete textbook for ****proletarian Party members and revolutionaries on worldview. There is now a very bad bias towards belittling and blurring the class perspective of Marxism, and there are even special articles to criticize the class perspective. The widening of the class struggle is wrong, but it is not the same thing as the class point of view and must not be confused with it. If you leave the class point of view, there is no Marxism.
The relationship between the public and the private - that is, the individual and the collective - is often entangled. To this day, there are still people who openly defend individualism, even criticizing "chauvinism" in the name of criticizing Lin Zexu's "no desire, no strength", arguing that individual selfishness is the driving force behind social development. I think Premier ZHOU spoke very clearly on this issue. He categorized people's spirituality into four levels: the first one is public but forgetful of self-interest, the second one is public before self-interest, the third one is half-public and half-self-interest, and the fourth one is selfishness and self-interest. He believed that a revolutionary should pursue a high realm. His inscription to Lei Feng was "public but forgetful of self-interest". In his speech at the Spring Festival Gala for Cultural and Art Workers in 1963, he put forward the idea of "publicity before self-interest", and in his speech at the Spring Festival Gala for Cultural and Art Workers in 1963, he put forward the idea of "publicity before self-interest". In his speech at the Spring Festival Gala for Cultural and Artistic Workers in 1963, he raised the issue of "five passes" (ideological pass, political pass, life pass, family pass and social pass). When talking about the "life barrier", he praised Lei Feng exceptionally warmly and said: "Lei Feng's diary reflects the idea of wholeheartedly serving the collective, and it is a very good diary literature. Passing the life barrier is to be wholeheartedly for the collective, requiring us to be public first and then private, sometimes public but forgetting private." The Premier did not speak half a sentence about individualism and selfishness being justified.
As for the transformation of worldview, the Premier is really bitter, I do not know how many times he has spoken. I don't know how many times I've heard his famous line, "Live to be old, learn to be old, and reform to be old". This is a very solid concept, a very important idea in the Premier's life. He believed that "everyone has to be reformed, those who came from the old society have to be reformed, and those who grew up in the new society have to be reformed, because there are still old things in the society, and if you are not firm and have no immunity, you will still be infected and influenced by the old ideas, so you have to be reformed as well. In particular, as engineers of the soul, literary and artistic workers must master the best ideological and artistic tools in order to inspire, motivate, and energize people in the appreciation of art. Therefore they have to transform themselves, for a long time." The transformation the Premier is talking about is not exclusively for intellectuals, but first and foremost for the proletariat and ****-producing Party members. He said, "The proletariat and the bourgeoisie, living in a society, cannot but be influenced by bourgeois ideology and customary forces, and there are also feudal influences. Therefore, the proletariat, the ****proletarian Party, must constantly eliminate non-proletarian ideological influences from its own ranks and weed out the old. Only those who can transform themselves can transform others." It can be seen how much importance the Premier attaches to the transformation of the worldview both inside and outside the Party as well as among the intellectuals! And this work was received with great results due to the self-consciousness of the majority of intellectuals. But once upon a time, I do not know why, few people mentioned "transformation", as if "ideological transformation" is a taboo word. Now, the improper winds within the party and society have developed so seriously that it is not very thought-provoking.
In the summer of 1965, the Vietnam War escalated, and the U.S. invaders began large-scale bombing of northern Vietnam. At this time, Comrade Ba Jin and I as the first batch of Chinese writers sent to visit Vietnam. Comrade Liu Baiyu, who was in charge of the Writers' Association at the time, mentioned to me many times that this was personally designated by Premier Zhou. At the end of the fall, I returned from Vietnam, my visit to Vietnam newsletter has not been written, the "Cultural Revolution" began. From then on, I lost my freedom and never saw the Premier again.
The news that the Premier had fallen seriously ill y disturbed the nation. I occasionally saw his emaciated face in the newspapers, which was really superior. I was in Tianjin when the Premier died, so I didn't get to see him again. But when I read the newspapers and the Reference News in those days, my tears flowed freely and I could not help myself. Later I returned to Beijing and attended the memorial service for the Premier. At first, I strongly suppressed my grief and was relatively calm, but when I was sending the hearse to Babaoshan, I couldn't restrain myself any longer, and my tears spilled over how long the 10-mile-long street was.
The Ching Ming Festival of 1976 was an unusual day. In the days approaching the Qingming Festival, my spirit was in a state of pre-combat exuberance. I decided to defy all prohibitions and went to Tiananmen Square for three days in a row. In the midst of that sea of flowers and people, I felt myself duty-bound and obligated to act as a tiny wave. On the pedestal of the Monument to the People's Heroes I asked my daughter to paste my own poem. I felt that not to do so would not be enough to express my feelings for this great man.
There is no doubt that Zhou Enlai was one of the most glorious and greatest figures in modern Chinese history (and in the history of China). He said repeatedly during his lifetime that there is no perfect man in the world, no man without flaws, but relatively speaking, he is indeed a relatively perfect archetype. He, without selfishness, was infinitely loyal to the Party and the people, and had both excellent talents in many aspects, as well as noble character and broad-mindedness. He was created by a great era and a great struggle, and is inseparable from the importance he has always attached to self-transformation. It is the pride of our party and the Chinese nation that our party has such a character.
The sun has set and the light is fading, but the spiritual wealth of a great man can remain on earth for a long time. If we want China to take off and the cause of ****productivism to flourish, we should seriously study such characters.
Throughout history, we have many Chinese characters worthy of our admiration, like Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, Huang Jiguang and so on, and now I'll talk about the admiration of Premier Zhou Enlai.
Premier Zhou Enlai grew up as a disciple of a bankrupt feudal family, and suffered enough from the influence of the feudal ideas of the elders in his family, but his love for the revolution remained unchanged. His determination to take a firm stand makes me admire him.
Premier Zhou Enlai lost his mother when he was 11 or 12 years old, and as the eldest son, he had to step in to handle the family affairs. As his father was working abroad, the family did not have much money to support him and his two younger brothers, so he had to borrow money from neighbors and relatives. However, some of his relatives, who were originally very close to his family, turned their backs on him! Moreover, the feudalistic elders in his family also interfered, asking him to write down on a piece of paper how much money he had borrowed on the first few days, and then he had to kowtow to that family and worship the saints, and then he had to borrow money to buy gifts for them when they had festivals and celebrations. Zhou Enlai in such a situation, hard to bring up two younger brothers, his self-reliance and strong will to let me admire.
Zhou Enlai left his hometown at the age of fourteen to study in the northeast, where his uncle lives, and once in the classroom, the teacher asked the students what they were studying for. Some of the students said it was to help their parents keep track of the bills, and some said it was to seek a personal future. Only Zhou Enlai answered firmly, "For the rise of China!" His words "for the rise of China!" I am impressed!
On October 10, 1911, when the news of the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution came, Zhou Enlai was encouraged. He found a pair of scissors, took the lead in cutting the braid symbolizing slavery and humiliation, indicating a break with the Qing government, and he became the first student in the school to cut the braid. His revolutionary spirit of fearlessness is something I admire.
In 1994, when Zhou Enlai became Premier of the Central Committee, his style of thrift and frugality did not change. Once, Zhou Enlai and some members of the Central Committee on a business trip, lunch in a restaurant, after lunch, the waiter wanted to pour the leftover tofu brain, was seen by Premier Zhou, he stopped the waiter and said: "We just established China, not enough financial resources, should not be so wasteful, you take it to the package, you can still eat tonight." Premier Zhou this thrifty and diligent style makes me admire.
Remember we have learned the "one night's work" piece of text? Inside the Premier Zhou's work is how serious and hard ah, his office is so simple: a small writing desk, two small swivel chairs, a lamp, that's all. Visible, he is how thrifty. Every day he has to read a lot of documents, but he is not browsing once even if, but a sentence by sentence review, his work is how serious. His spirit of seriousness, diligence and thriftiness, and dedication to his work makes me admire him.
Everything Premier Zhou Enlai did made me y admire him, his leadership style during the Guangzhou Uprising, his valor during the negotiation of the Bandung Conference, the thought of his life's diligent examination, the thought of his illness and death because of his sleepless work, the thought of the ten-mile-long street to send the Premier to his death, he was so perfect. I always think that Premier Zhou is one of the greatest and most admired people in China.
On January 8, 1976, this great leader, this person I admire, died in Beijing.
"The hearse moved slowly, touching the hearts of millions of people. Many people ran after the hearse on the sidewalk. How people wished that the car would stop, that time would stop! But the hearse drifted away and finally disappeared into the pale night. People are still facing the place where the hearse drove away, standing quietly, standing, as if waiting for Premier Zhou to come back ......"
Zhou Enlai, these three ordinary words, combined, will achieve infinite greatness. No matter which Chinese people, as long as read these three words, all in the heart rise a lofty respect. He died without leaving a penny of property, he died without a son or a daughter, he died without even leaving ashes! His life, both ordinary and full of legend, the United Nations at half-mast to his ordinary and great life drew a successful conclusion.
After more than thirty years, I once again mourn him - our dear Premier Zhou Enlai. Let me tell you a few short stories:
One - a western reporter asked Premier Zhou: "May I ask, Mr. Premier, are there any prostitutes in China nowadays?" Many people wondered: how can you ask such a question? Everyone paid attention to how Premier Zhou answered. Premier Zhou said affirmatively, "Yes!" The whole audience was in an uproar and there was a lot of discussion. Seeing everyone's confusion, Premier Zhou added, "China's prostitutes are in Taiwan Province of China." There was thunderous applause.
-------- The reporter's question was very sinister, and he designed a trap for Premier Zhou to drill. After the liberation of China closed all the brothels in the mainland, the original prostitutes have been transformed into self-reliant laborers. This reporter thought: Ask the question "Are there any prostitutes in China", you Zhou Enlai will surely say "no". Once you really answer this way, you will fall into his trap, he will follow up by saying "there are prostitutes in Taiwan", and you can't say "Taiwan is not China's territory" at this time. This is where the insidiousness of this question lies. Of course, Premier Zhou saw through his trick at once, and answered in this way not only to recognize the sinister intention of splitting China's territory, but also to contrast the good social atmosphere of the mainland with that of Taiwan. Alas, Premier Zhou considered the issue thoroughly and meticulously, and at the same time so quick to respond, you do not admire him is also difficult ah!
II - foreign journalists asked Premier Zhou Enlai unkindly: "In your China, obviously people walk on the road why is it called 'road'?" Premier Zhou replied without thinking, "We walk the Marxist road, or the road for short."
-------- The reporter's intention was to compare the Chinese people to cows and horses, walking the same road as the animals. If you really answer him from the origin of the name "Ma Lu", even if it is correct, it is meaningless. Premier Zhou's interpretation of the word "horse" as Marxism was, I'm afraid, unexpected by this reporter.
Third, when the American delegation visited China, an official said in front of Premier Zhou: "Chinese people like to walk with their heads down, but we Americans always walk with our heads up." This statement, the words shocked the four seats. Premier Zhou did not panic, said with a smile on his face: "This is not strange. Because we Chinese like to walk uphill, and you Americans like to walk downhill.
------- The American official's words clearly contained a great insult to the Chinese. The Chinese staff in the room were very angry, but because of the diplomatic situation, it is difficult to strongly rebuke each other's rudeness. If they were to swallow their anger and let the other side humiliate them, what would happen to the prestige of the country? Premier Zhou's answer to the Americans to learn what is called soft with hard, the ultimate embarrassment, embarrassment is the Americans themselves.
肆-一个美国记者在采访周总理的过程中,无意无意看到总理桌子上有一个美国产的派克钢笔。 That reporter then asked in a tone with a touch of sarcasm, "May I ask Your Excellency, Premier, why do you, the titular Chinese, still need to use our U.S.-made fountain pens?" Premier Zhou listened and said wryly, "Talking about this fountain pen, it's a long story, this is a North Korean friend's anti-American war trophy, as a gift to me. I have no merit, I refused to accept. The North Korean friend said, stay as a souvenir. I found it meaningful and left this fountain pen of your country." The American reporter was dumbfounded.
------- What does it mean to move a stone by oneself? This is a typical example. The reporter's intention was to be sarcastic Premier Zhou: how you Chinese can not even produce a better pen, but also from our U.S. imports. But Premier Zhou said it was a trophy from the Korean War, which made the reporter lose face. The first time I saw this was when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night.
Wu - a western reporter said: "Excuse me, how much money does the People's Bank of China have?" Zhou Enlai euphemistically said: "The People's Bank of China's monetary funds? There are 18 yuan, 88 cents." When he saw the crowd's puzzled look, and explained: "The People's Bank of China issued the denomination of 10 yuan, 5 yuan, 2 yuan, l yuan, 50 cents, 2 cents, l cents, 5 cents, 2 cents, 1 cents of the 10 kinds of main and auxiliary RMBs, the total of 18 yuan, 80 cents and 8 cents ...... "
After reading these few short stories, do you have a little bit of a small feeling? Premier Zhou's greatness can not be expressed in words, I can only say, do not misunderstand Zhou Enlai busy, transactionalism, he is in fact the highest to the holy, is a great thinker; do not misunderstand Zhou Enlai constrained bows, he is in fact to the feelings of the most sex, often unrestrained; do not misunderstand Zhou Enlai feminine aggression, he is in fact virile, fiery stirring exuberance; do not misunderstand Zhou Enlai swallowed his voice to tolerate, that is in fact the Great wisdom and courage, the most self-knowledge and know others ...... I want to say that there is a kind of power called personality!
Let's bow three to late, to our great Premier! At the same time, let us also remember this ordinary but great name: Zhou Enlai.
Give a favorable review ah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
