"When literature is literature, some people are likely to use it as butt wipe, and some people will never read a piece of literature in their lifetime. ”
When literature is a political lamb to the people, it becomes a food for all ages, and everyone will fight for a bite. ”
The real value of "Heavy Wings", which is known as China's first political **, lies not only in its depiction of social life in the early stage of change, but more importantly, in its wisdom and courage when it calls for life to move forward and attacks the artists who hinder social change.
The wave of reform
The ordinary world is written about the peasants, the heavy wings are written about the workers, the literati are bound in the wordless, and the blind fall into the massage.
You can see the era that the author wants to depict in a book. What I can see in Heavy Wings is the confusion of thoughts 78 years later.
As a work of Mao Prize, the literary nature does not seem to be higher than the political nature of this book, and the pen is as sharp as a knife, exposing nothing more than the problem of "left" and right at that time. In terms of language, I focus on the depiction of daily life scenes and the psychology of the characters, but the frequent political discussions seem to me to be a bit vague and long-winded.
The reformers, represented by Vice Minister Zheng Ziyun, had the courage to break through the fetters of traditional forces and advocated structural reformThe opposition, represented by Minister Tian Shoucheng, took advantage of its power to set up obstacles and devoted all its attention to the struggle for power and profit.
The confrontation between Tian Shoucheng and Zheng Ziyun has a strong political struggle color. He has been in officialdom for a long time, is scheming, good at manipulating power, and is accustomed to seeing the wind and steering the rudder.
For Zheng Ziyun's reform efforts to conform to the trend of the times, he not only watched coldly, but also deliberately found a fork and drilled Confucius, without penetration;
He took good care of his body and waited for the sick Zheng Ziyun to collapse without a fight;He unscrupulously wants to "get down" Zheng Ziyun's qualifications as a deputy to the 12th National Congress, because with his political sense, Zheng Ziyun will become an "outlaw" among the "reformers."
Standing today, more than 40 years after the reform and opening up, enjoying the dividends and opportunities brought by the reform, what kind of mood should we have to be grateful to those who dare to break the shackles of the old concept and system and be the "first to eat crabs"!
When describing the reform in the economic field, he also extends his brushstrokes to the fate of several families and characters, and digs deep into the complexity of human nature.
Many people who turned chrysalis into butterflies
Zheng Ziyun has the courage to brave the wind and waves in the sea of reform, dares to fight against the counter-reformers who are complacent, and is willing to appreciate like-minded people. At that time, people's minds had long been solidified by the influence of the past years.
As Ye Zhiqiu said, Zheng Ziyun must not go like this, there are not too many such excellent people in China, but too few.
I was also impressed by Chen Yongming, the director of Shuguang Automobile Factory. Faced with the intertwined human relations he will encounter in the car factory;The layers of organization are like a set of rusty mechanical devices that do not work well in every link;
Losses of the enterprise;Chen Yongming was not intimidated by the arrears of production tasks, on the contrary, he only considered that because he was a member of the Communist Party, he wanted to rush to the front line of war and production.
As a member of the reformists, Chen Yongming was also criticized like Zheng Ziyun.
Expanding the autonomy of enterprises, freely forming a cabinet, abolishing the Daqing Office, the political work group and the full-time branch secretary of the workshop, etc., these seemingly simple and necessary enterprise management methods were regarded as a "demon wind" at that time and were not favored.
In the midst of layers of resistance, he stood firm with strength and results. In that period, he was lonely, and they were all lonely.
But this is the vocation of life, and what an indomitable and self-sacrificing spirit it contains!
At that time, there may have been many, large and small Zheng Ziyun, who either turned into butterflies or were buried deep in the soil in the midst of many difficulties and challenges.
Then, I would like to talk about a very distinctive feature of Zhang Jie's description, which is the description of female characters and the light they have.
In this book, there is Ye Zhiqiu, who dares to speak for the people and is independent and thoughtful;Even if the fate is ill-fated and even the last death of Huangquan Wanqun still has the noble qualities of innocence and childishness, sincerity and perseverance;
There is Zheng Yuanyuan, who is innocent and persistent and dares to pursue his love;There is also a simple and kind female doctor Yu Liwen. Of course, this does not depend on the level of human education, but on the fact that some people are born with a heart that is dedicated to experiencing beautiful things.
It was not only the personal forces of the anti-reformers who faced Tian Shoucheng, but also the resistance of the entire society. The power of the counter-reform to advocate doing things according to the old rules was deep-rooted and intricate, and like Zheng Ziyun at that time, many people with courage had smoothed out their edges and corners and lost their courage in layers of coercion and struggle.
However, the times are developing in advance, and any force that hinders the development of the trend of the times will be crushed, and society will eventually move forward in a new direction!
Never back down when you're caught in it
As Mr. Lu Xun said, it is very common for us to eat crabs now.
But the first person in the world to eat crabs had a lot of courage at that time, and there must have been many people who thought he was fooling around - something that no one dared to touch in the past many lifetimes, and it has not been written in the world, so why should you touch it. ”
The development of anything is difficult at the beginning, there is no ancient, and there is no one to come.
On the road of reform, we can only rely on our own enthusiasm and the best for the future to explore.
Anything that needs to be changed touches the rights of some people, and there will be all kinds of resistance, but should we give up because of this?Are we going to back down because of this?
Impossible, the development of things is extending in the direction it thinks is reasonable, and the first person to eat crabs, whether in the past, present, or even in the future, will appear and profoundly influence generations of Chinese.
Write to the end. In the historical landscape outlined by Zhang Jie, the social reality of the 80s of the 20th century is described as an intermediate process, a crossing from one shore to the other, and an expectation between annihilation and emergence, death and rebirth.
Have you ever thought that an era of transitional development must be painful, but it has always been great!
Just as this book is dedicated to those who work selflessly for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, my youth and enthusiasm are also dedicated to the Chinese nation!
