On July 18, 1981, he met Jin Yong, one of the four great masters of Chinese martial arts, in the Fujian Hall of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
It was the height of summer, the weather in Beijing was hot, Jin Yong put on a suit very formally, took his wife and children, accompanied by the staff, and drove in the direction of Tiananmen Square, perhaps because the road conditions were not very familiar, Jin Yong finally arrived a few minutes late.
When Jin Yong and his family arrived, ** was already waiting at the door to greet them, as soon as they saw Jin Yong, ** immediately greeted him and warmly held his hand: "Welcome Mr. Cha, we are already old friends." "Zha Liangyong is Mr. Jin Yong's real name.
I've always admired you, and it's an honor to meet you today. Jin Yong bowed, said modestly, and introduced his family to *** one by one to ask about the children's age, reading, etc., and his concern was beyond words.
Fig**Meet Jin Yong.
**Tell Jin Yong:"I've read your **, this is the third time I've re-emerged, most of the protagonists in your book have gone through hardships to become great things, this is the law of life. ”
This is well known, Jin Yong's works are almost everyone knows, almost all of his protagonists have overcome obstacles and experienced many hardships before they have achieved great things, such as "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" Zhang Wuji has followed his parents to live a primitive life on ** Island since he was a child, and was deceived by Zhu Jiuzhen after leaving the island.
Another example is Yang Guo in "The Condor Heroes", when he was young, he went from Quanzhen to the tomb of the living dead, and when he grew up, he experienced broken arms, poisoning, and companionship with the Condor Heroes.
Most of Mr. Jin Yong's characters are like this, and the upheaval of life and ups and downs have attracted countless readers, including ***

When he returned to Beijing from Jiangxi, he specially bought a set of Jin Yong**, he liked to read it very much, and he often read about Jin Yong's remarks in the newspaper. In front of Jin Yong, **praise his martial arts**: It's very good, I also love to read it, and I have to read these pages every day. ”
Jin Yong has always maintained a modest attitude: "That's worthless, just use it as entertainment!."”
"Speaking of the heroes and heroes of the Chinese, it is very good!."* smiled, his eyes were full of appreciation, and his daughter Deng Nan also told Jin Yong: "My dad likes to read your ** very much, and he reads a few pages every night before going to bed." ”
**While chatting with Jin Yong, he walked towards the hall, Jin Yong was wearing a suit and tie, dressed very formally, at that time Beijing was in the hot summer, the weather was hot, ** noticed Jin Yong's suit very carefully, and thoughtfully told him: "The weather in Beijing is very hot this year, you take off your coat, we don't have to be formal." ”
When I arrived at the hall, ** told Jin Yong: "I am a little deaf in my right ear, please sit on my left." "This year's *** 77 years old, is close to old age.
FigAt this time, *** and Jin Yong are not just the relationship between readers and authors, one of them is a leader, and the other is a critic and social activist with world influence. It's not easy to bring about this side of the two.
At first, Jin Yong submitted a report to the organization: I hope to meet ***
The staff of the security department immediately conducted a strict examination of Jin Yong in accordance with the procedures, and when they learned about Jin Yong's situation in detail, the staff had two concerns.
First, in 1973, Jin Yong was invited to Taiwan, but Chiang Kai-shek, who was ill, did not meet him, and Chiang Ching-kuo met with Jin Yong for a long chat and had a deep discussion about the situation.
Second, it is related to Mr. Jin Yong's married life. Mr. Jin Yong has had 3 marriages in his life, in 1948 Jin Yong married his first wife Du Yefen, after the marriage Jin Yong was busy with work, lack of companionship for his wife, the two finally divorced;His second wife, Zhu Mei, was a journalist who married in 1956 and remained married for 20 years.
In 1976, Jin Yong took the initiative to divorce Zhu Mei, and then married Lin Leyi.

In fact, Jin Yong has a consistent and pure heart, he has a profound foundation in traditional culture, a good reputation for loyalty and integrity, and a strong influence that is famous in the world. Mr. Jin Yong, who has patriotic enthusiasm, once sighed: "If I can see a unified China with my own eyes in my life, it is really the greatest wish of my life." ”
He is eager to meet the leader*** As early as before the meeting, Jin Yong said:"For decades, what I want to see most is *** I have always admired his style. Such a strong and unyielding character is really like a hero in my martial arts. ”
When Jin Yong's request was sent to ***, ** also listened to the staff's concerns, and after thinking about it, he told them: Don't worry about this. And on the report, he instructed: I am willing to meet Mr. Cha.
This led to this meeting between *** and Jin Yong, and Jin Yong was also the first Hong Kong compatriot to officially meet separately in the Great Hall of the People.
Fig**Both of them were happy and happy for this side, after Jin Yong was welcomed into the hall and sat down, ** then took out a panda brand cigarette and handed it to Jin Yong, he himself lit one with a match, and the atmosphere was more harmonious, and the two immediately chatted about the current economic construction of the motherland and the development of all aspects.
Jin Yong sighed with emotion: "Vice Chairman Deng could have been the chairman, but you insisted on not doing it yourself, such a thing that does not attach importance to personal status is very rare in the history of China and even in the history of the world, which is very admirable." ”
Light a cigarette, take a deep breath and tell the story:"Fame, it's already there, what more ?.. do you need?It's not that I don't have the qualifications to be ***, but I still want to live a few more years and do more things for the people of the country. ”
FigJin yong 's. ** is a symbol of the country, and it is often necessary to represent the country in state affairs. Back in the fifties, when he was in office, he said: "I also want to write some articles for the newspaper, but I have to remove the chairman, I can open a column in the newspaper and be a columnist." ”
**Proposed that he didn't want to serve as the next one***, and he wanted to free up more time and energy to do other things. In 1958, the Communist Party of China decided after discussion: "Over the past few years, Comrade ** has repeatedly proposed that he will not continue to hold the post of ***, and the ** plenary session has decided to agree to Comrade ***'s proposal after full and multifaceted consideration." ”
In 1959, he succeeded as the next oneNow it's the same when it comes to ***, ** said frankly to Jin Yong: "I'm afraid that I will shorten my life expectancy, and many heads of state come to visit our country every year, ** to greet and send, reception, and banquet, which takes a lot of time and energy, and it will be very tiring to do too much." ”
Jin Yong expressed his understanding of this, and at the same time, Jin Yong also expressed deep admiration for the character of *** who does not value power.
In fact, this is not the first time that *** has proposed not to hold a leadership position, in the decades of struggle, ** has made several indifferent to fame and fortune, only for the country and the people.
Fig** with ***
In 1956, ** elected *** as the general secretary of the Communist Party of China at the meeting, ** said very modestly: "* has been talking for a long time, and I have proposed it many times, but there are only six words: one is not good, and the other is not smooth. Of course, there is no way to decide on the revolutionary work, but I myself am sincerely afraid. ”
However, *** knows ***'s ability to govern the country and the army, and he publicly praises *** that he is more thoughtful, fair, and a kind person, which makes people less afraid. He said he couldn't do it, and I thought it would be ......”
At a meeting during the Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, everyone still urged *** to serve as the general secretary of the Communist Party of China, and ** kept humbly resigning: "I can't do it, I can't do it, my prestige and ability are not good, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to do it, so let others be it!."”
**Say: "We are doctors,**yes**, are you**chief, or our assistant!."The prime minister on the side agreed with ***'s statement, and also said: "Chairman, I think it's decided!."”
Everyone said, "It's decided!".Seeing this, ** did not refuse. In 1956, at the First Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, he was elected as the general secretary of the Communist Party of China and became one of the members of the first generation of the leading collective with the core of the Communist Party of China.
Fig** with ***
In 1976, the Prime Minister died and served as the Acting Prime Minister. After that, he served as the chairman of the Communist Party of China and the chairman of the Military Commission. **Leader's suggestion: *** to take over as *** prime minister.
But at this time, he said that he was getting older, and he was inevitably lacking in energy, and he did not want to be the prime minister, so it was more appropriate for him to serve as the prime minister.
At the first session of the Fifth National People's Congress in 1978, a decision was issued: continue to serve as prime minister, and vice premier. It was not until 1980 that the burden of *** prime minister was relieved.
FigIn the early 80s, he resigned from the posts of chairman of the committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, and unanimously agreed with many comrades that he would be appointed chairman of the Communist Party of China by having outstanding qualifications, prestige, and talents.
**Still chose to politely decline, even if it was expected, ** still firmly said: Relatively young comrades should preside over the leadership work. He proposed: *** to take this position.
The leader held several meetings in a row to discuss the appointment, and when he was about to resign, he said very seriously: "This is an organizational decision, and party members must obey it." ”
In this way, after the resignation, *** will assume the post of chairman of the committee, and he will be the chairman of the military commission, because the chairman of the military commission has no suitable candidate for the time being, and he will choose to serve for a period of time, and he will be relieved of his burden when he cultivates suitable talents.
When it came to the selection of **, ** still maintained a humble and humble attitude, and he was honest with Jin Yong and expressed his views. Although he is not a ****, he has never stopped loving the country and the people.
Just two years after Jin Yong talked with ***, ** was elected at the first meeting of the Sixth National People's Congress and became the third *** after *** and said with a smile: "In addition to me, others can also be!."”
Fig**Back to the meeting with Jin Yong, in the conversation between the two, Jin Yong can also deeply feel the heroic spirit revealed in the subtleties.
They talked about economic construction and diplomacy and all aspects of the motherland's construction, and they had frank and cheerful exchanges, and the one-hour talks ended quickly.
Got up from their seats and said goodbye to Jin Yong in person, they continued to chat unfinished while walking in the direction of the entrance of the hall, and when they arrived outside the hall, ** stopped and chatted with Jin Yong for a long time, ** held Jin Yong's hand tightly: "Mr. Cha can come back often in the future and go around to see, it is best to come once a year." ”
It is worth mentioning that when *** was reluctant to say goodbye to Jin Yong, Mr. Han from the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency came over and saluted ***: "Vice Chairman Deng, hello, when I went to North Korea to comfort the volunteers, I saw your old man. ”
Looking at him, I felt that the face was a little unfamiliar, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I can't remember." He laughed at himself: "I have a bad memory, oops, I am old and mediocre, and I am useless." It made everyone present laugh, and also made Jin Yong feel the personal charm of *** again.
More than ten years later, Jin Yong remembered this scene and sighed with emotion: "Great people are usually always approachable. "What he said was exactly ***
FigThe meeting with Jin Yong attracted a lot of attention from the outside world, and in the news program on the night of their meeting, **TV station reported in detail, Xinhua News Agency, and many foreign news** all rushed to report on the matter, and the "Deng Jin talks" became a sensational news in the world at that time.
Jin Yong himself also compiled their conversation that day into a document, and published an article in newspapers and periodicals under the title of "Record of the Conversation of the Vice Chairman of the Communist Party of China", which attracted a lot of attention from the outside world. Jin Yong called *** "the real hero and hero", just like the protagonist in his **.
Jin Yong later commented in the newspaper, praising *** After 1978, all workers in China would be much more unhappy if there was no ***. **The reform and opening up policy advocated and adhered to has brought China on a bright road. ”
This side is also the only time that *** and Jin Yong met alone.
The meeting with *** had a great impact on him, and after this meeting, Jin Yong devoted himself to the great cause of the reunification of the motherland, and he published articles many times to express his ardent hope for the reunification of the motherland.
FigJin yong 's. In 1997, Jin Yong recalled the beautiful picture of talking and laughing with him many years ago, tears couldn't help falling, Jin Yong was sad for the history of a great man: "I feel very sad, 16 years ago, the scene of smoking and talking with him is still in front of me." ”
Talking about the people's leader *** Jin Yong said: "In my mind, he is a highly respected hero and statesman, and a rare great man in Chinese history. ”
