After personally inviting Fu Dingyi to serve as the director of the ** Cultural and Historical Research Museum, Fu Dingyi devoted himself to cultural preparation. In 1951, in the vigorous land reform movement set off across the country, Fu Dingyi actively made suggestions to *** and sent a letter to *** to express his opinions. **Immediately after receiving the letter, Li Weihan was dispatched to investigate the issues raised by Fu Dingyi and successfully resolved them. Fu Dingyi not only actively completed the tasks assigned to him, but also became an important communication bridge between the first and the masses. Since *** handed over the important task of the Museum of Culture and History to him, Fu Dingyi's home will welcome many visitors every day. One day, more than a dozen old people came to Fu Dingyi's house, and one of them said, "I am over eighty years old, and I have been studying history all my life.
I heard that you are the director of the Museum of Culture and History, and we hope to continue to contribute to the country in the museum, I wonder if you can agree?”。Fu Dingyi did not answer hastily, but asked them about their situation carefully. After in-depth understanding, he learned that these old people have made great achievements in historical research, and their participation will be of great benefit to the work of the Museum of Culture and History. In addition, many elderly people have traveled thousands of miles to Beijing, some of them are in financial difficulty, some are seriously ill, and some are even unable to survive. It is truly remarkable that these elderly people still insist on contributing to the country. After learning what happened to these old people, Fu Dingyi arranged a place for them to live and immediately sent a letter to ***
In the letter, he described the situation of the old people in detail and hoped that ** could arrange for these old people to work in the Museum of Culture and History, because their professional knowledge is crucial to the future development of the Museum of Culture and History. **After receiving the letter, I was deeply moved by Fu Dingyi's sincere words. ** Said to the secretary: "It is good to promote the work of the Museum of Culture and History as soon as possible, so that it can be successfully built as soon as possible." If it is not possible to build it at present, then hire some experienced elderly people, give them salary, and help them solve their life problems. ”。The secretary recorded ***'s instructions one by one, and then *** said: "The appointment of Fu Dingyi as the director of the Museum of Culture and History is really the right person." Only our Fu Dingyi can care so affectionately for these scholars with expertise. I am very relieved to entrust the work to him. ”。
** Undoubtedly, he was a leader who loved people, who, like his own teacher, could not bear to see the people suffer, and was a great and benevolent leader. After the instructions were issued, the People's Office acted quickly to raise funds to improve the quality of life of the elderly. In 1953, Mr. Fu Dingyi's "Lianmian Dictionary" came out, and he specially sent a copy to *** and hoped to get ***'s inscription support when the second edition was published. **I have never forgotten the inscription for the "Lianlian Dictionary", although in the reply letter said: "I received the book you sent, about the inscription, I have not carefully studied your work, so I can't express my opinion for the time being, please understand!."In 1954, after the second edition came out, ** finally inscribed the book.
Mr. Fu Dingyi spent 30 years and devoted his whole life to compiling this work, collecting all the concatenated characters of the Six Dynasties period, which is of great significance to the study of ancient Chinese literature. In the spring of 1955, Mr. Fu Dingyi was seriously ill, and he was very concerned when he learned about it, but he was unable to visit him in person due to his busy state affairs, so he had to send Tian Jiaying to the hospital to receive it**. Under the care of ***, Mr. Fu Dingyi's condition has improved. However, in 1958, Mr. Fu Dingyi finally died of illness in the hospital. ** Deeply saddened, and personally organized a funeral committee to bury him in the Babaoshan Martyrs Cemetery.
At the memorial service, leaders such as ** and *** laid wreaths one after another, **summed up the three major contributions of Mr. Fu Dingyi: discovering Comrade ***, supporting the party's activities and rescuing the party's leaders, and participating in the anti-Chiang struggle. These three major contributions fully demonstrate the value of Mr. Fu Dingyi's life, and are the highest praise and affirmation for him. May I always remember Mr. Fu Dingyi!
