Combining reporters, scholars, and calligraphers, the senior reporter of Wen Wei Po solemnly has the character and feelings of a well-known newspaper person who dares to be the first, and also sees the scholarly and naïve education and temperament of the older generation of literati.
On the 18th, the "Autumn Shade on the Banks of Baili Creek - Solemn Donation Document Exhibition" opened at the China Museum of Modern Press and Publication, and will be on display until January 21, 2024. The rich content of interview notes, news reports, manuscripts, correspondence, work supplies, etc., which has been accumulated and treasured over the years, has strung together the growth footprints of famous journalists, and also outlined and witnessed the changes of the times for more than half a century.
Donating the collection to the museum is like a daughter getting married and finding her a good in-law. Nearly ninety years old, he is a "normal reporter, no particularly valuable things", "the China Modern Press and Publication Museum is the home of journalists, I have been a reporter since I became a notebook, more than 2,000 letters from readers, and the records left in the Shanghai Museum for ten years, which is equivalent to putting it in my own home, very relieved." ”
A pen drives the progress of the times.
Zheng Zheng once said: "Time is the lover of a journalist, and it is the most ruthless lover." Journalists live, record, and report only at this moment, at this minute, and at this second, and in order to record this 'thing', they must dedicate their piety and faithfulness. "There is faith in the heart, there is a hold in the text, and the style of a generation of newspaper people can be seen in the solemn body.
The exhibition is divided into two sections, the first unit is the career of a journalist, focusing on Zheng Chong's contributions to journalism, including four subsections: "Painting the Spring of the Apricot Forest", "Embracing the Spring of Science", "Exploring Chinese Civilization" and "Inheriting the Flame of Literary Gathering", which respectively show Zheng Chong's outstanding achievements in medical and health care, science education, archaeology and professionalism, and explain his pioneering and exploratory nature in journalism.
In 1962, he joined Wen Wei Po and wrote about health, science, education, archaeology, art and other fields, and wrote famous articles such as "Takeover Notes" and "Visiting Friends under the Bauhinia Tree", which had a far-reaching impact. Whichever line you run, you will get something. For example, when he was running in the field of health, he solemnly reported the first case of amputated hand replantation surgery in China with the old reporter, and then independently reported the first case of surgery to open the forbidden area of the liver and the first case of heart valve surgery. Running archaeology, in the 70s of the 20th century, he was one of the authors who proposed that "the Yangtze River is also the cradle of Chinese civilization". When running in the field of science and technology, two long-form newsletters "The Atomic Nucleus is "Internal Friction"" and "Stranded - After the Design Scheme of the Catamaran Passenger Ship is Proposed", submitted for review after several twists and turns, and after publication, the impact was huge, and the two original scientific terms of "internal friction" and "stranded" have become a kind of image summary of social relations after his refinement.
The solemn news reports, reportage and biographies are of great significance, brilliant and full of the spirit of the times, embodying the responsibility of a Chinese journalist and the feeling of writing articles skillfully, and have had a wide social impact. On the one hand, his achievements come from his personal knowledge, diligence and dedication, as well as from the discernment, love and support of the leaders of Wen Wei Po.
Among the many letters on display, in addition to exchanging letters with famous scholars, there is also a letter from Liang Dadong, a disabled young man from Fujian Province who was rejected by the university twice because of polio when he resumed the college entrance examination in 1977. "After ten years of hard work, how many bitterness, twists and turns ...... thereLooking back, it was a great privilege to have the care and encouragement of such a well-known journalist as you in my most difficult time. When I got my acceptance letter, I wanted to tell you the news right away......"It's admirable that the fate of the average reader has changed because of journalists.
Two or three confidants talk about art.
It's a miscellaneous family, but also an expert. In addition to being a reporter, Zheng Zheng has accumulated a wealth of wealth in the fields of calligraphy, painting, archaeology, etc., and has written biographies of painters such as Xie Zhiliu, Tang Yun, Lin Fengmian, Ying Yeping, Cheng Shifa, Ding Shaoguang, etc., as well as biographies of collectors such as Zhang Boju, Zhang Heng, Xie Zhiliu, Xu Senyu, and Ye Gongxuan. solemnly said with a smile: "With the change of age, people are also changing, I have never been stereotyped, and I don't want to be a family." ”
The second unit of the exhibition focuses on the scholar's career, focusing on the solemn image of the scholar, including three subsections: the artist's biography, the monograph of the museum and the letter of friends and friends, reflecting the diligence and dedication of the painter and the collector of cultural museums. A number of manuscripts, interview notes, letters from friends, and books signed by famous artists and other physical objects can give a glimpse of many historical details in his writing process and character interactions.
In May this year, on the eve of the opening of the China Modern Press and Publication Museum, 2,000 letters, 15 manuscripts, more than 100 articles and manuscripts, 38 kinds of objects, 2,000 books and 3 calligraphy were all handed over to the museum for preservation. Among them, there are tape recorders, tapes and other interview tools, the earliest manuscript of "Xie Zhiliu's Biography", the manuscript of the famous reportage "He Embraced the Earth and Embraced the Atomic Bomb", and the ...... of purple clay pots and inkstonesThe collection includes large picture albums, special collections, thread-bound books and books signed by Xie Yaliu, Lu Yanshao and other famous artists, which reflect solemn academic interests and friendships. These documents are vivid footnotes to solemn journalistic and academic work, and are also valuable assets in the history of journalism and academic history.
The "Baili Creek" in the title of the exhibition is taken from its study number, and the self-written couplet in the study "Wutong people's immortal dwellings, Gaoshi houses everywhere in the depths of the peach source" outlines the spiritual distance. Just the exhibits such as pots tell a good story - Xie Zhiliu once painted pots and wrote "Xiangwen" for solemn books;Liu Dan's house painting pot, by Chen Peiqiu's book "Fishing the Cold River and Snow Alone";After the 83-year-old Tang Yun painted the pot, he solemnly belonged to the ...... "Cook new tea to eliminate eternal day, and chat with two or three confidants".
Everyone talked about the multi-faceted old newspaper people.
Since the early 70s of the last century, Zheng Zheng and my father Xie Zhiliu have frequent contacts, or talk about poetry, or calligraphy and painting. He also participated in many activities with his father, including painting and calligraphy appraisal, going to Turpan, Xinjiang to see murals, and attending his father's art exhibition in Singapore. From chronology to biography, Zheng Zheng is arguably the journalist and best friend who knows my father the most in-depth and professional. Xie Dingwei, the son of Xie Zhiliu, told reporters in an interview that his family has known Zheng Zheng for more than half a century, and the deep friendship between the interviewer and the interviewee goes beyond the ordinary working relationship, and the on-site exhibits vividly convey the journalist's love for art outside the report, which is worthy Xi of learning from future generations.
Mao Liantao, former deputy editor-in-chief of Wen Wei Po, reviewed the solemn famous articles, mentioning "From Medical Experts to Foreign Language Professors", "Atomic Nuclei in "Internal Friction"", "Heaven and Earth", Chen Zhongwei's finger replantation surgery, Wu Mengchao's liver surgery, Cai Yongzhi's heart valve surgery and other influential reports. These reports are an in-depth portrayal of respect for knowledge and talent, and reflect the remarkable achievements of a scholar-type and expert journalist, whose contribution to Wen Wei Po and the party's journalism is obvious to all. ”
Feng Xuefeng, the head of Wenhui's Fudan news class, shared his friendship with Zheng Zheng for many years. 40 years ago, I solemnly taught a newsletter writing class for the journalism class, how to write articles, how to do interviews, how to establish morality, speech, and meritorious service as a reporter, promote the progress of the times with a pen, and solemnly teach by example to accompany the growth of journalism students. For the students in the journalism class, Mr. Zheng is not only the best in journalism, but also the father who cares for them, and also gives them warm care in life. ”
Zhu Dajian, president of the Shanghai Old Journalists Association, brought a solemn book "Records of the Times" and "Exploring the Source of Ancient Chinese Civilization", "News works can be eternal, he records history, and history also remembers him." Legend has it in the press that the later occupants of the solemn room found nine letters written at the beginning of a drawer, which shows the solemn professionalism. He believes that many journalistic works have reached the realm of "the eternity of the moment".
Solemnly take journalism as a career, feel the pulse of society and the voice of the people, and write many popular news newsletters;After his retirement, he made many achievements in the collection of cultural museums, calligraphy and painting art, and devoted himself to the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture. This special exhibition is not only a record and physical evidence of major historical events, but also a visual display of the spirit of journalists. Zhao Shulei, director of the China Modern Press and Publication Museum, deeply felt that "the museum has the responsibility to spread and inherit the spiritual tradition of the old newspaper people." ”
