It may take a long time to truly understand Chairman Mao

On November 7, 1931, the First Congress of the Chinese Soviet Congress was held, and Chairman Mao was elected Chairman of the Provisional Central Government of the Chinese Soviet Communist Party. On January 15, 1935, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held the Zunyi Conference. This conference corrected the "Left" adventurist rule of Bogu, Wang Ming and others, and established the new central government represented by Chairman Mao. Lead right.

The founding leader of the Republic of China was the son of a farmer and had been the "son" of farmers' friends throughout his life. Compassion for farmers and sympathy for the poor are rooted in his blood and flow through his life.

If you want to truly get closer to Chairman Mao, you must read his biography, see his thoughts on governing the country and the party, and see his historical achievements, rather than hearsay and malicious slander. In other words, it may take a long time to truly understand Chairman Mao.

Whether the times create heroes or heroes create times, this is just like the contradictions contained in Chairman Mao's thought that need to be viewed "in two" and grasp the main aspects of the main contradictions. The conflict in Shaoshan and the country's peril created Chairman Mao, and Chairman Mao created New China.

Chairman Mao once couldn't help crying when he saw the poor people. This is not an exaggeration. Even when watching a play, he couldn't see those peasant friends who were suffering in the world.

When the heavy rain poured down, the millet was also drying in the sun. Chairman Mao first helped the neighbor's tenants to collect the grain and pack it into baskets, but his own millet was damaged by the rain. Faced with his father's scolding, he asked back: " Our family is better off than others, so we should help others more, but they still have to pay rent. How can we make a living if they encounter this disaster again?"

This kind of small help and sense of responsibility are rooted in his heart. , and this is inseparable from the teaching and influence of his mother Wen Suqin.

Chairman Mao wrote in a letter to his close friend Zou Yunzhen: "There are three kinds of people in the world. First, those who benefit themselves at the expense of others; second, those who benefit themselves without harming others; third, those who benefit others at the expense of themselves. I Mother is the third type of person. "Chairman Mao is also the third type of person.

As her name suggests, Wen Suqin is simple, hard-working, philanthropic, and compassionate to the poor. Chairman Mao once often distributed his meals to those classmates from poor families. Sometimes he even refused to eat at all and gave all the meals to the students. His classmates, at that time, he lamented in his heart: God, is all China as poor as Shaoshan Chong?

After his mother discovered his behavior, she did not scold him, but asked him to take more care of him. Take some food to the school. Sometimes when Chairman Mao saw pedestrians in ragged clothes and shivering with cold on the roadside, he would take off his jacket and put it on the pedestrians. Many times, this kind of past event seems to exist only in the myths of Confucius and Mencius where rituals and music flourished.

China's situation at that time determined that only Chairman Mao, this peasant class intellectual, could save China. He is familiar with the sufferings of farmers and understands their happiness. Only in this way can Chairman Mao finally lead the workers and peasants across the country to revolutionary victory.

Chairman Mao gradually realized that one person, five people, and a hundred people can give clothes, cloth, and porridge, but what about five thousand, fifty thousand, and half a billion people? When he was a boy, he was vague about reform. He only knew that he wanted to study and study for the rise of China. Facts have proved that Chairman Mao never let go of his books throughout his life, and he responded to the saying "Learn until you are old, live until you are old."

From literature, history, philosophy, economics, politics and law, to natural science, the mysteries of the universe, from Confucius, Mencius, Lao Zhuang, to the Communist Manifesto. Reading and learning were the beginning of changing Chairman Mao's destiny. This family tradition of hard work, love of learning, and joy in learning has been passed down.

Mao Anying is Chairman Mao’s eldest son. When this eldest son returned from the Soviet Union in 1946, Chairman Mao did not show any pampering.

He asked Mao Anying to eat hotpot and wear cotton-padded clothes and trousers. He asked Mao Anying to take off his military uniform and go deep into the countryside of northern Shaanxi to learn principles from his peasant friends. "As thick as a farmer" is considered a passing grade. This is the family tradition education of a leader.

When the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea began, Mao Anying submitted a letter of invitation to Peng Dehuai. This was the first volunteer of the Chinese People's Volunteers. Chairman Mao did not say a word, but when Peng Dehuai suggested that Mao Anying should not go to the battlefield (Chairman Mao had already lost five relatives due to the revolution: Mao Zejian, Yang Kaihui, Mao Zetan, Mao Zemin, and Mao Chuxiong), the father resolutely refused.

Later, Mao Anying died. Chairman Mao held back his tears when he was grieving and still said: "Revolution has to pay a price. Anying is an ordinary soldier. He did his duty as a Communist Party member." Don’t take it as a big deal just because you are my son.”

Leading by example is the way to inherit Chairman Mao’s family tradition. Chairman Mao’s daily necessities are always “sturdier and more durable” than ordinary people. . His clothes are often "patched upon patches."

When meeting guests, a shirt that has been mended and cannot be mended is wrapped under a neat and decent tunic. The same is true for shoes, socks and pajamas. Even a toothbrush needs to be used "bald". Throwing them away, these are the memories of the staff around him. Those bald toothbrushes are still among Chairman Mao's relics, warning generations of communists.

The only thing that can be said to be luxurious in Chairman Mao’s body is a Swiss Omega watch. This was also given by Guo Moruo, the Chongqing negotiator. This watch accompanied Chairman Mao throughout his life. In his words : "Repair and repair are new again."

Just imagine why Chairman Mao's revolution can succeed? In addition to advanced Marxist-Leninist ideas, it is inseparable from empathy with the farmers' joys and sorrows. I would like to ask which leader in history can achieve this step? Former Pakistani Prime Minister Ben Butuo once praised: "There can only be one such romantic figure like Chairman Mao in a century, or even a thousand years."

Chairman Mao was not only a politician and strategist, he was also a "painter." It outlines the grand plan for the founding of the country and paints the grand blueprint of the motherland in thick and colorful colors. It is Chairman Mao's vision to move from new-democratic industrialization to socialist industrialization, transform a backward agricultural country into an advanced industrial country, and establish a comprehensive national industrial system.

To restore the national economy, the "First Five-Year Plan" and the "Second Five-Year Plan" give priority to the development of heavy industry, consolidate the industrial foundation, vigorously develop the transportation industry, and promote the "three lines". After missing the two industrial revolutions, Under the premise, it took my country 60 years to complete the 300-year path of the West, which fully reflects the advantages of the socialist system in concentrating efforts to accomplish major things.

Through the nationwide implementation of land reform, the feudal exploitative economy was eradicated, farmers were liberated, and the days when thousands of farmers were oppressed were ended. Farmers truly became masters, promoted the collective economy, and solved the problems of farmers. The problem of eating.

The second step promoted the socialist transformation of agriculture and agricultural cooperatization. This policy greatly liberated productive forces and consolidated the alliance of workers and peasants.

In 1958, Chairman Mao proposed at a series of important party meetings the eight-character policy for agricultural development: water, fertilizer, soil, planting, density, protection, management, and work. 84,000 reservoirs were built by manpower, fertilizer production was increased from scratch to 10 million tons, and Yuan Longping’s hybrid rice test was successful in 1974... All of this has profound implications for the "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" issues that are still worrying today.

Correctly handling the relationship between agriculture and industry, especially the relationship between agriculture and light industry and heavy industry, is the wisdom of a politician. After achieving certain achievements in the development of heavy industry, we cannot grasp the reins of light industry like in Eastern Europe. The country also pays one-sided attention to heavy industry, which will inevitably lead to an acclimatization of the industrial structure.

In "On Ten Major Relationships", Chairman Mao pointed out that the proportion of agriculture and light industry should be adjusted and more agriculture and light industry should be developed. The three should be indispensable and complementary to each other.

In terms of science and technology, China’s first atomic bomb exploded successfully on October 16, 1964, the first hydrogen bomb successfully exploded on June 17, 1967, and on April 24, 1970, the first man-made The Earth satellite was launched successfully. In just two decades, China broke through the blockade of imperialism, broke through the wall of science and technology, developed "two bombs and one satellite", and established a firm foothold in the world.

Subsequently, high technologies such as nuclear submarines, synthetic insulin, and synthetic genes rapidly emerged in China. It is often difficult for us to imagine why the most beautiful flowers bloom in the most dangerous deserts?

Chairman Mao proposed at the Second Session of the Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1958: "We also need to build some satellites. China must develop Our own high technology." The deployment planning and foresight of Chairman Mao's era began many years ago.

In addition, the party must be governed strictly and no corrupt elements should be spared. This was the party style of Chairman Mao's era. The Huang Kegong incident is the best proof that the emperor should be guilty of the same crime as the common people when he commits crimes. Chairman Mao wrote in a letter to the members of the Communist Party of China: "No matter what kind of good friend and good comrade the person who made the mistake is, the principle and stand must be the same." Can't relax."

Regarding Huang Kegong, the former hero who killed the female student, Chairman Mao said that if he is pardoned, "there will be no way to educate the party, the Red Army, the revolutionaries, and nothing to do with education. An ordinary person." Compared with today's world of corruption and abuse of power by senior officials, and the domineering behavior of some cadres' children, we can only lament that the legacy of our ancestors is hard to find.

It is indispensable and urgent to regain Chairman Mao’s principles for governing the party, strictly govern the party, and ensure the purity and advanced nature of the party. As Chairman Mao said: “Government The party is like governing officials. "Malicious smearing and blindly focusing on exaggerating Chairman Mao's shortcomings cannot destroy his achievements, but can only expose one's own ignorance.

Getting closer to Chairman Mao, understanding Chairman Mao, and understanding Chairman Mao’s thoughts is an eternal and vital proposition. It may take us a long time, but we can take it step by step and read it page by page. , contact the modern history of China, ancient history, world history and the history of the Chinese revolution, and browse the book list of Chairman Mao, a great man of the generation, and the soul in the book will naturally awaken.
